Volume 1 The Siege of the Empire Chapter 102 Round-up Plan

Chapter 102: Round-up Plan

At night, Antlers is no better than the royal city, there are no tall walls to obstruct it, and the cold wind can travel unhindered in a small town like Antlerstown, which is not very densely built. Even on a night when there was no snow, it was frighteningly cold.

The town guards patrolled the muddy streets in the cold wind, gathering under the eaves from time to time to complain to each other, chat, and pass the long night.

"Why haven't you come yet?" said the town grown-up, huddled in the warm tavern, waiting for news from the town guards, and drank a few small drinks by the way.

"How do you know he's coming today, Mayor?" the tavern owner dismissed his sloppy fellows, and stood at the bar for the first time in a long time, and personally bartendered the mayor.

Mayor Mare smiled smugly, and held the cup in his hand in front of him, as if he was not looking at the wine in the cup, but at the fake rose mask that was about to jump into his cup:

"Will come, he will come, if he knows about the sordid deeds of the stinking shoemaker's family, he will come!"

The stinking shoemaker in the mouth of the mayor of the town is a big tax payer in the town, and the family's shoemaking skills are exquisite, and the shoes produced are sold throughout the three counties of the besieged city.

It is said that even the nobles of the royal city of Arton wore boots made by their families.

Looking at the mayor's slightly drunk appearance, the tavernkeeper's face couldn't help but stiffen: "My lord, you won't be ......"

"I, I didn't tell the rescued women, and I didn't send anyone to make trouble in the stinking shoemaker's shop, if something happened to their family, it had nothing to do with me..."

The mayor drank the wine in his glass, let out a long sigh of relief, and glanced at the tavernkeeper with his small eyes:

"And you, it's okay too. โ€

"That's, that's. The boss put on a happy and honest smile and hurriedly responded.

This tavern has been open in the town for more than ten years, and the owner naturally has his way of survival.

Since there are several families, he can't afford to provoke anyone, so every family respects and keeps a distance, just like...

Mayor the same.

"Jingle bellโ€”"

At this moment, the welcome bell on the door of the bar rang, interrupting the two of them to be abusive.

A soldier dressed as a captain pushed the door open and walked quickly to the mayor, with a smile on his face:

"The mayor of the town is like a god, that kid is really here, I have sent someone to surround the leather warehouse, he can't run!"

"Very well, don't be in a hurry, wait for the stinking shoemaker's men to sharpen his strength. โ€

After listening to the report of the captain of the guard, the mayor of the town was really in good spirits, and he reached out and took out a silver coin from his pocket, and slapped it on the bar with a "pop".

"Let's go, let's see. โ€

"Mayor Town, if you don't have so much!" Looking at the silver coin, the boss was a little flattered, when did the mayor pay for drinking?

"You keep it, if the stinky shoemakers come to drink, remember to treat them to a drink, hahaha-"

The mayor's laughter was gone, and the boss accepted the silver coin with a wry smile, thinking:

What kind of money is this for drinking? This is obviously hush money...

The mayor hurried to the nearby leather warehouse with a small group of town guards, his fat body still highly recognizable even in the dimly lit night.

A snow-white figure followed them from a distance, trailing away.

At this time, in the leather warehouse of the shoe-making family, a red long sword drove straight into the door of the wide secret room on the second basement floor.

A blood-colored sword light flashed, and the heavy door of the secret room was split and shattered to the ground.

In the secret room, the lights are dim, except for a set of tables and chairs in the middle of the secret room, there is a circle of half-human high cages displayed along the wall.

There were several children in the cages, the eldest girl was seven or eight years old, and the youngest baby could not stand up, but could only curl up in the corner, holding a few clumps of dry straw and shivering.

The screams of the bad guys outside the door woke the girl from her nightmare, and she knew that someone had finally come to save them.

She gripped the cage and tried to keep her eyes open, trying to see through the dim light.

Outside the shattered gate, a slender and tall figure stood with a sword, only to see him stretch out his right hand with white gloves, and the slender fingers snapped his fingers lightly, and the originally dim light suddenly became abnormally bright.

Under the bright light, half a dark golden mask and a long blood-red hair came into the girl's eyes.

Behind a black aristocratic dress woven of dark satin, a small cloak that only covered the back of the waist was dragged, and a dark red rose button was buttoned on the snow-white collar inlaid with gold velvet lace, which was particularly eye-catching.

The girl has been locked up here for a long time, and she doesn't know that the dazzling beautiful man in front of her is the Rose Mask that has disturbed the entire Antlers Town for two months.

Seeing that Rose Mask was about to step into the secret room, she immediately shouted, "Be careful!

"Stinky girl, it's a big deal!" a shrill voice came from the air, it was the wicked man guarding the children.

A flash of sword light slashed down from the roof of the chamber and fell mercilessly down on the neck of Rose Masquerade.

Who knew that the footsteps of the rose mask did not stop, and under the dark gold mask, the corners of her mouth raised confidently.

I saw that the top of his head seemed to have eyes, and the blood-colored long sword in his hand was lightly flicked upwards:

"Ding!"

The incoming steel knife suddenly flew out diagonally with this crisp sound.

The attacker had already fallen to the ground, clutching his bleeding throat, writhing on the ground a few times, and not moving.

Suddenly, the inside of the secret room was filled with the fishy smell of blood.

"Ahh

Rose Masquerade stepped over the corpse and approached her, and with a flick of her sword, the lock on the cage snapped into two knots.

He opened the iron cage, squatted down, gently combed the girl's messy hair, and softly reassured:

"Don't be afraid. โ€

Rose Masquerade's voice was warm and quiet, and it was not until the girl had stopped crying that he pointed to the other cages and said:

"Can you take them out with me?"

The girl wiped the tears that had not dried from her face, nodded firmly, and replied in a hoarse voice, "Yes!"

Rose masked nodded in satisfaction, put her sword back into her sheath, picked up the youngest baby, took the girl's little hand, and said:

"Let's go, let's go out. โ€

The girl was pulled by the Rose Mask in one hand and the child who had been arrested in the other hand, and stumbled out of the secret room.

Everywhere you pass along the way, the lights are particularly bright.

Although the children who are afraid of the dark can see the road ahead, they can also see the source of the smell of blood on the road.

The underground space of the leather warehouse is the size of half a football field, and it is a gathering place for traffickers.

But at this moment, there are no more than half living people here, and there are villains lying on the ground who have been killed with a sword, and blood is spilled all over the ground.

The children held each other's hands tightly and walked forward briskly.

After a few moments, Rose Mask finally led them out of the leather warehouse.

At this time, the mayor of the town with hundreds of town guards has been waiting outside the warehouse for a long time:

"Impostor, you're surrounded!
