Trees were on both sides of the river, the water current was calm, the rafts continued moving forward and split the water waves apart.

“When are we gonna arrive? Are we near yet?”

Bai Yang sat at the front of the raft and asked as he stared at the calm water.

His question was left unanswered, in fact, there was not even a single reply as the guys around thought, Young master, you've already asked us more than hundreds of times….

Bai Yang was just impatient, after leaving the village for about four hours, the journey so far was uneventful. The scenery remained the same the whole time so all he wanted now was to arrive at the destination right away.

“Young master, why don't you sleep for another while?”

Xiao Mao gently asked Bai Yang softly, she even attentively set up a temporary bed with fur…..

He took a look at Xiao Mao and sighed deeply; the armor set was about 100kg, with the 20kg saber dangling on her waist, she was still able to move freely without as if the weight did not even exist, Bai Yang failed to comprehend where such monstrous strength comes from her body….

Most importantly, with the armor on, she couldn't even give him a warm hug….

“I've already slept a few times….”

Bai Yang sighed again and continued looking towards the front, while thinking of all kinds of nonsense in his mind….

Around him, eight fully armed huge men surrounded him, their eyes scanned around like wolves and their hand was always placed at a position where they could reach the saber quickest.

Bai Yang reckoned that the even president would not be as closely guarded as himself….

It's just that the rafts' speed was too slow that Bai Yang had the urge to bring a yacht here!

Eh? Yacht? Probably can't afford it but a motorboat should be easy. The river here is deep and wide enough for a boat to sail through, and that will increase the traveling speed by several folds!

This dude was also a crazy one, as the thought appeared in his mind, Bai Yang felt extremely uneasy that he couldn't execute this thought right away. If he were not with these guys right now, he would've gone back to earth to buy a motorboat right away…..

“Young master, why don't you go to the raft in the center? At the front is where the river cross and there might be some danger…..”

The guard leader, Zhao s.h.i.+ looked at the front and bent down slightly to advise Bai Yang to move a little back to the center for his own safety.

“Eh? What's happening?”

Bai Yang's boredom was no more in an instant, the boring journey was really killing him and finally, something was about to happen.

Why are you so happy that there is danger? 

Zhao s.h.i.+ was speechless as he thought, This “boss' is a little r.e.t.a.r.ded.

But he still patiently explained, “Young master, where we are is called the Lost Forest, no one knows how big this forest really is. There are many other villages like ours scattered all over this forest and the river would cross path at certain places, making it easy to get lost….”

Bla bla bla, you talked so long but you did not reach the main point!

Bai Yang interrupted, “Which means that the river paths in this forest are like a maze? And the rivers cross path at some places, like where we are about to go through right now? We might even run into people from other villages at these intersections and in turn, have some conflict with them?”

His conclusion was right on point, so Zhao s.h.i.+ had nothing to say and only nodded….

“Master, running into people from other villages is no big deal, what we worry the most are bandits!” said Xiao Mao as she worriedly looked at Bai Yang; after all, Bai Yang's strength was so weak that even the child in the village could easily knock him out.

“What are we waiting for? Full sail ahead! Bandits only exist in legends for me, I can finally see them with my own eyes now….!”

Bai Yang stood up and shouted impatiently, with a look that desperately wanted to run into bandits.

You are all wearing t.i.tanium armor and carrying a t.i.tanium saber, so what am I supposed to be afraid of?

So why did you start moving towards the rafts at the back? If you were that excited to run into bandits?

Ehem, a wise man would never place himself in danger; it was fine to see bandits for himself so that he could broaden his horizons, but Bai Yang would never risk his own life in the process…..

Just as Zhao s.h.i.+ said, an intersection appeared not long later. In between the watercourse, there was one after another tiny lone island filled with trees.

Facing against such complicated situation like a spider web, a modern human would not be able to find his way without GPS navigation, Bai Yang felt that if he entered recklessly, he wouldn't be able to exit, even after spending his entire life in it….

“Where are the bandits, why can't I see them?”

Bai Yang craned his head out to look around and asked impatiently.

You would not look as pathetic as you are now, if you are not hiding behind Xiao Mao and have a dozen guards protecting you in the center like a metal bucket, you know?

Hey, you can't blame me on this, I've never witnessed a living animal being slaughtered my entire life. Now that we are about to run into something even more ferocious, is it even embarra.s.sing if I am afraid?

The river was wide, the rafts were attached together with planks and the 100 men stood around as they scanned the surroundings carefully.

Bai Yang was a little anxious, linking the rafts together might be able to increase overall defense, but if the enemy were a little smarter, they would use fire to counter this strategy and everyone would be doomed by then….

But we are in the middle of the water, so the fire might not even be lit up and it would do no good for the bandits to burn the goods down….

Bai Yang mumbled in his heart while widening his eyes to the max as he looked around.

When the rafts sailed right into the intersection, birds started flying out from the jungle after being startled.

Oh s.h.i.+t, here comes!

Bai Yang's heart thumped.

But Zhao s.h.i.+ and the others, were much more experienced than him, obviously. As soon as the bird flew up, Zhao s.h.i.+ shouted, “Be careful and get yourselves ready for a battle!”

Hmmm, the professionality of the villagers as a bodyguard was undoubtedly on point, upon sensing the incoming danger, most of them started moving towards Bai Yang, surrounding him in the center round and round again.

The two-meter long t.i.tanium saber was unsheathed and it shone with a cold icy sheen under the sun light's reflection.

Some kind of weird shouts started coming from everywhere and Bai Yang, who was surrounded, started becoming impatient, d.a.m.n it, you are too tall, I can't even see anything!

What he heard right after that was something sharp tearing the air apart, screeching through the air and following after that was some metal clanking voice.

Ding ding dang dang.

“Xiao Mao, what is happening right now?”

The fool quickly asked.

Xiao Mao, on the other hand, had the t.i.tanium broad sword positioned in front of her chest, protected Bai Yang behind her like a tigress protecting her cub, and she did not forget to answer Bai Yang, “Young master, the bandits are all over us, they are now firing an arrow rain on us!”

“I know this, but how many are they? How're our men doing?”

“They are endless, they have more than 10 rafts. But we've sustained no casualties. The arrows cant even pierce through the armor that young master has bestowed us….”

“Good.”

He was rea.s.sured now, he knew it, his t.i.tanium armor could even tank sniper bullets like nothing. You scrubs can just start kneeling down and sing the song “conquered”….

Ahhhh, this is so conflicting, I can't see anything at all, if I knew this earlier, I would've gotten myself a drone to live stream this to myself!

Bai Yang couldn't see anything at all, but be it the villagers or the bandits, both sides were a little dumbfounded.

After firing a few rounds of arrows, the bandits hurriedly noticed that none of the villagers fell, what were they going to do against an army that was impenetrable?

How was this possible?

After some stunned moments, the villagers reacted quickly, the armor bestowed by young master was so powerful, so what were they still waiting for? Time for a counter-attack!

The sabers were sheathed, apart from those protecting Bai Yang, they all put down their mask, ignored the enemy arrows and started firing back!

Anyhow, your arrows can't even hurt a single strand of hair on us…..

Both sides exchanged fire, arrows flew everywhere, screeched through the air but apart of noises, nothing happened to the villagers.

As for the bandits, they were all screaming, wailing in pain as more and more of them were struck by the arrows, inflicting them with heavy casualties.

When the rafts closed in and were about time for close quarter combat, Bai Yang's side had no injuries and no deaths, whereas the bandits lost more than a quarter of their men already!

These bandits were really professional, they did not even flee after suffering such heavy losses; however, there were still about 400 of them even after losing more than a quarter of their numbers, they still outnumbered Bai Yang and the villagers.

“Kill them all and leave nothing behind!”

Among one of the rafts from the bandit side, the bandit leader shouted with his eyes all red, his voice like thunder.

s.h.i.+t, we're screwed this time, we never had such heavy losses. If we don't kill them all, I will be hacked to death by my own men when we get back, but it will be all worth it if we can even get one of their suits…..

The bandit leader was about 2 and a half meters tall, his body was full of muscles and apart from color, he looked no different from the Hulk! He wielded a ma.s.sive axe about the size of a table, roared and charged like a monstrous beast as soon as the rafts touched each other!

You thought that the bandits were so stubborn to not retreat after such a loss? They were all eyeing on the armors worn by the villagers, and all they needed was just one set to get rich…..

They did not even bother looking at the goods brought by the villagers, their eyes were all over the armed villagers, like starving wolves staring at their preys!

One might even think that the bandits wanted to make love with the villagers….
