Hod stood up, and before he walked up to say hello, the fat-bellied guy stopped immediately.

"I am the militia captain of this village. Where are you bandits from? Don't you know that this is the territory of Knight Barnett?"

Under Hod's confused gaze, the guy hid behind a militiaman and leaned out to shout.

Seeing this guy's actions, not only Nott and Monkron showed contempt in their eyes and loosened the machete in their hands, but even Hod felt a little contempt for this man's courage.

But at this moment, Hood knew that it was not the time to argue with this timid militia captain. He walked forward and bowed slightly, imitating the etiquette in the western movies he watched in his previous life:

"Hello, please allow me to pay my respects to the respected Knight Barnett."

"As you can see, we are not robbers. My name is Hood, and these two are my companions. We come from afar."

"Please forgive our sudden arrival. We have no ill intentions. We are just temporary travelers who want to replenish some food and drinking water here."

"Passing travelers?" The militia captain walked out from behind the team members and looked at Hood and the other two suspiciously.

After seeing that the three were wearing shabby clothes and their weapons were only two machetes and a dagger, he immediately felt relieved.

At this time, more villagers with farm tools arrived one after another. As the number of villagers increased, the militia captain also changed his face.

"Hmph, travelers passing by, you'd better not let me find out that you are stealing in the village, otherwise... hmph..."

The militia captain strode around Hod and the other two, and then seemed to have discovered something.

He walked in front of Monkron, raised his hand and pointed at Monkron, and shouted:

"Untouchable, why is the leather armor on you so similar to the one I lost some time ago? Did you steal it?"

As soon as these words came out, Monkron's face changed immediately, and his right hand was about to reach for the machete. Nott next to him also had a vein on his forehead and tightened his machete. Then the two looked at Hod.

Looking at the arrogant expression of the militia captain, Hod suddenly felt his blood boiling in his heart.

Damn, they turned against each other so quickly, are they trying to rob me…

"Captain, the leather armor he was wearing was bought with all our savings. I'm afraid it's not the one you lost." After all, he didn't know much about this world, so Hood could only suppress his anger and said in a deep voice

The militia captain put down his arm and turned to look at Hood, his face full of disbelief, as if he had seen a monster.

"Untouchables, every inch of land under your feet is Lord Barnet's territory. You came here without my permission, and you dared to refute me!"

"I seriously suspect that you are not travelers, but bandits disguised as travelers."

"Now I declare as the captain of Lord Barnet's militia that you are arrested!" The militia captain stared and said fiercely.

Hood took a deep breath and slowly closed his eyes.

The militia captain felt that Hod was frightened by him, so he walked forward and said with disdain: "What do you think, lowly person? Now tell me whose leather armor that is? Take it off quickly and take them away."

After saying that, the militia captain turned around and walked towards Monkron, but before he took two steps, a strong arm stretched out from behind him and locked his neck tightly, and at the same time a short sword was pressed against his carotid artery.

"Captain!"

"Let go of the captain!"

The sudden change caught everyone off guard. Some of the onlookers were frightened and retreated repeatedly. Several militiamen holding spears were also at a loss.

Seeing that Hod suddenly attacked, the two robbers Monkron and Nott held their machetes tightly without hesitation and stepped forward to confront the militiamen.

"Captain, well done!"

Nott turned his head and said to Hood excitedly, then looked at the panicked crowd with a grin: "You really treat us as soft persimmons..."

Monkron looked fierce at the moment, looking at several panicked militiamen holding short spears, with unstoppable anger in his eyes.

"You...you...what do you want to do? This is Lord Barnett's territory.

I am the militia captain appointed by Lord Barnett himself. If you kill me, Lord Barnett will definitely not let you go."

The militia captain trembled and his tone became stammering. If it weren't for the three words Barnett that gave him some courage, he would have been scared to urinate incontinence.

"With your courage, you dare to blackmail me!" Hood tightened his arm suddenly, causing the militia captain to roll his eyes instantly.

"I...I was wrong...I was wrong..." The militia captain slapped Hood's arm repeatedly, trying to make himself breathe more smoothly.

Hod's arm loosened slightly, leaving the militia captain a breathing space, but the dagger in his hand still did not leave the latter's carotid artery.

"... That leather armor is not mine, it's yours, I don't want it... Please let me go..." The militia captain said with a slightly crying voice.

At this time, he was really scared. The coldness on his neck made him feel his scalp numb and his legs weak.

"Let them retreat!" Hod looked coldly at the militia and villagers gathered around him, and tightened his arms again.

"Ahem... You bunch of lowly people, why don't you retreat quickly? Do you want to kill me?" Hearing Hod's request, the militia captain coughed twice, his face was as pale as paper, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead, but he still shouted at the crowd around him.

Hearing the order of the militia captain, the villagers and several militia looked at each other, hesitated for a moment, and then slowly retreated.

"Okay, we have done what you asked. Please let the captain go." A militiaman couldn't help but speak.

"Shut up!" Hood shouted coldly, his eyes swept over the militiaman coldly, and the militiaman's body shuddered and quickly shut his mouth.

The militia captain breathed a sigh of relief, then tilted his head and raised his eyes, and said in a trembling voice: "Please, let me go."

"Look, there are only three of you. If you kill me, these villagers will never let you go."

Hearing the threatening words from the militia captain, Hood smiled coldly, a trace of disdain appeared at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes revealed a chilling indifference.

"Three people? Nott!" Hood said softly, with confidence in his voice.

"Hehe..."

Nott smiled grimly, his smile seemed to come from the devil of hell, making people shudder, and then a roar came from his mouth:

"Kuhn! Jeff!"

As Nott shouted, a loud voice instantly spread from the entrance of the village to the surroundings.

Then, more than a dozen figures appeared in the direction of the wheat field. They were holding various weapons, machetes, daggers, pitchforks and sickles, and ran towards the entrance of the village aggressively.

These robbers walked vigorously and looked fierce. Their eyes were full of murderous intent and greed.

Their appearance instantly brought an atmosphere of tension and panic to the whole village, making people feel an invisible pressure.

The militia captain looked at the robbers getting closer and closer, and his face turned pale.

He originally thought that he could scare off the three outsiders with the advantage of numbers, but now it seems that the other party has a lot of people.

Faced with so many robbers, the militia captain couldn't help but feel a little desperate.
