On this stormy night, everyone is waiting for the dawn to come, but the dawn is still far away...

The night after the rain is like a wash, the bright night is sprinkled on the calm blue sea, the smoke is vast, the deep sea under the scales and shallow waves swim in countless schools of fish, the exposed reefs and islands wander alone in the current, the stars are reflected on the sea, everything is so calm and natural.

However, there is a group of buildings with flames standing abruptly on the cliff of the coastline, which looks so discordant.

Above the skylit flames of the Sea Prison was a huge golden eagle, which occasionally flickered its wings and glided towards the area outside the Sea Prison.

A mushroom cloud suddenly rose from the wall of the Sea Prison illuminated by the moonlight, and the raging flames rose in it, and the violent explosion shook the woods and rocks outside the Sea Prison, but the aftermath of the tremor had not completely dissipated, and a group of soldiers on war horses could be seen rushing out of the Sea Prison from a distance, none of them were holding torches, nor were they using various portable lights, but they could see the flames among the cavalry from time to time, and it turned out that they were holding the flint guns in their hands and shooting at the golden eagle.

Meanwhile, inside the Sea Boundary Prison, in the eastern part of the Sea Boundary Tower, several groups of Crusaders armed with torches were rounding up the sneak attacker under the leadership of Adjutant Gagarin.

Spreading out like a net, the Crusader soldiers meticulously searched every nook and cranny where they could hide, and although occasionally they were stopped by three or two fugitives, these stragglers were nothing of any value to a well-trained soldier.

"If you find out, kill them on the spot!" the adjutant said viciously to the soldiers beside him, "I don't care who he is, anyway, if he dares to help those assassins escape, he must have nothing to do with them! ”

"Roger, Adjutant!" replied the soldier behind him with a torch in a low voice.

"Hehe, if Lord Gagarin is promoted because of this incident, then we will naturally receive the Empire's commendation together, whether we can be promoted depends on this time, and we will cheer me up for twelve points!"

"Yes!"

The shouts of the soldiers crept into the attic at the top of a water tower, beside which an old tree was shaken by the night wind, the leaves rustled and the shadows of the trees fell on the window, and Andrei was leaning against the window and watching about seventy or eighty soldiers in iron armor inspect his position.

"What should I do? The Crusader soldiers should not attack rashly, if they hurt any of them, I really can't argue if they are discovered..." How do I feel like I've been calculated by you... Hey..."

"Bang!" Suddenly, a gunshot rang out not far from the water tower, without warning and unusually abruptly.

"Old-fashioned barge guns, army modifications, with a short recoil barrel. ”

Andrei reacted quickly, and then looked in the direction of the gunfire, only to see that a commander-like guy there had just executed a criminal who was blocking the advance of the soldiers, and the criminal in a tattered prison uniform fell into the mud, apparently not surviving.

"It's cruel... Is the life of a criminal so cheap..."

Andrei subconsciously clenched the "Orion" in his hand.

"Of course, what do you think?"

The sudden sound in the darkness behind him gave Andre a thrilling start.

"Who is it?!" Andre's "Breeding Mecha" suddenly activated, and a cold blue light suddenly illuminated the entrance to the water tower.

I saw a cold-faced young man standing there, with long gray hair, and a long sword with a white scabbard on his shoulder, and he looked like he was dragging it.

"Why are you here?!" Andre recognized the guy who appeared unnoticed, "Sakura Boy, haven't you already left?"

And the person who spoke was the King of Spades, and no one expected that this guy would not leave with the golden eagle, but appear here.

"I don't like to owe favors to others, why did you help us just now?" asked the King of Spades, sitting on a chair, "I don't even know if you're our enemy or a friend." ”

"Well, don't get me wrong, to be precise, we should be considered enemies," Andre controlled the mech back to normal mode, "I'm just doing a favor to a friend, that person doesn't know if you know him or not, but he's a little familiar with your boss." ”

The King of Spades didn't speak, he just paused for a moment before getting up from his chair.

"You go, I'll cover your retreat. ”

"Huh?" Andre pushed up his high-tech glasses and looked at the King of Spades in surprise, "Are you mistaken, the reason why I stopped the crusader attack was so that you could retreat with those innocent nuns smoothly, and instead of leaving, you came to cover me?"

"Less nonsense, what a mother-in-law's turtle boy," the King of Spades slowly walked to Andre's side, and then passed by him, "In front of those guys, you shouldn't be able to use those abilities, and you're afraid of revealing your identity." ”

Andre watched the King of Spades walk by, and what he said was really Andrei's scruples, because he really couldn't think of anyone in the entire imperial capital who had such a high-tech attack method besides him, which is why he chose to use "Orion" instead of energy cannons.

"Ten minutes, whether you run or climb, hurry up, no one can come near this area for ten minutes, but when ten minutes are over, you can ask for your own blessings. ”

The King of Spades walked to the window of the water tower, and he looked at the soldiers who were winding like water snakes, and the "cherry thorns" on their shoulders were already surrounded by a circle of cherry blossoms.

"Raven doesn't owe you a favor anymore, and the next time we meet, we will still be enemies. ”

Picking up Andrei's black cloak and draping it over himself, the King of Spades tilted his head and coldly dropped a sentence, and then jumped out of the window of the water tower without saying a word, with countless cherry blossom petals scattered behind him.

"Sister A, will it be dangerous to let Xiao K return to the Sea Boundary Prison alone?" The cold wind in the sky blew Fang Q's face pale, "Do you want me to go back and help him?"

"No, it's his own decision, he's going to be an adult soon, and he should learn to grow up," Ace of Hearts frowned and looked at the ground, "It's a bit of a hassle with these sticky dog skin plasters, and if we let this group of guys find that old friend with me, the old man will definitely be unhappy." ”

From time to time, bullets grazed the body of the golden eagle and rushed into the sky, although some would directly hit the abdomen and wings of the golden eagle, but the thick feathers on the golden eagle could completely offset these bullets that had lost a lot of kinetic energy.

"Sister A, where is the destination?"

"The unmanned fishing village near the sea stone cliff, the southernmost stone wall along the coast of the imperial capital, Xiao K will come there to meet us after solving the matter over there. ”

"Hmm. ”

Q replied and leaned over to the golden eagle's huge head, conveying the order to the big bird in a special way.

Looking back at the Kasa who was being held in Dorothy's arms, the eyes of the Ace of hearts flashed with a crystal light, and she turned her head, tears falling silently.

But no one noticed that Kasa's fingers moved slightly, and then his eyes opened a slit, and he only glanced at the position of the Sea Boundary Tower from afar, and then quietly closed his eyes again as if he had put down something, and passed out completely.

The two dancing spectral tentacles beneath the Tower of the Sea seemed to be monsters from the Cthulhu Mythos, and two huge black iron rings were clasped to the base of the tentacles, and it raised a splash of water and slammed towards the human who dared to offend it.

Seeing the familiar and somewhat unfamiliar figure desperately slaughtering Muto, Al wanted to come to help, but reason told him to wait and see.

"The captain of the special squad just now?" Muto narrowed his eyes at Zeta flying towards him, but there was a little doubt in his eyes, "No, you're not him!"

Muto suddenly opened his eyes, and the algae-covered chains on his arms suddenly glowed green, and the spirit tentacles slapped at the figure with a sharp wind sound.

Without a sound or any obstruction, Zeta's' Damascus steel knife easily cut off the two spirits controlled by Muto and touched the water, as if it had rained a torrential rain, and the two tentacles that were severed were shattered into countless droplets of water and splashed down.

This scene surprised Al, he didn't expect that Mr. Zeta, who had been suppressed by Muto before and had no respite, would become so brave and easily break through Muto's attack.

Equally unbelievable was Muto himself, whose face became very serious, and his two arms around his chest were loosened.

"Old fellow, you are no longer the 'thug of the sea' Muto back then, go die, I will go to the sea to pay tribute to you!"

The guy disguised as Zeta finally revealed his voice, his face still hidden in the darkness and could not be seen, but his voice made Muto suddenly extremely angry.

"It turned out to be you, I thought you had been killed by that crazy research, but I didn't expect you, a madman, to be alive and well, just right, new and old accounts together!"

A sudden burst of momentum erupted from Muto's arm, and water splashed, and the chains that had been wrapped around his arm fell.

"I kept you for so many years because you still have research value, and since you escaped, there is no need to continue to keep you, because you know too much!"

The man's voice smirked as he grabbed the Damascus knife in both hands and slashed at Muto's head.
