Chapter 591: The Fire Rises
"Drink...... Drinking, burping~"
Passerby A blushed and staggered down the street.
At this moment, he can't tell the difference between southeast and northwest.
If it was a normal time, the sheriff city guards would have come to interrogate him a long time ago.
- He was already near the city gates.
"Hiccup~Vomit~"
Passerby A burped, only felt uncomfortable for a while, and subconsciously leaned against the wall and vomited.
I don't know if it's an illusion, but he heard the sound of clanging, and every now and then there was a burst of gunshots.
After spitting, he wiped his mouth and looked up.
"Huh?"
He was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Are they all hallucinating?"
In the distance are the tall city walls.
On weekdays, there are only a few fires on the city wall, but at this moment they have been extinguished and burned to pieces.
Of course, the most important thing is that he saw a group of people rushing towards him.
And......
They still have real guys in their hands.
"Hehe, Hiccup~"
"I'm hallucinating. β
Passerby A smiled, shaking his head to find his way home.
Bang!
Shout!
As soon as a gunshot rang out, he felt a "burning" sensation coming from his right arm.
In the next moment, a tingling pain came.
"This ...... It's ......"
Passerby A's head was still confused, and he was slightly awakened by the pain.
He looked at his arm.
I saw that there was already an extra hole in the cheap clothes at the moment.
He touched it, and his palm flipped in front of him.
A puddle of blinding red appeared before his eyes.
Cold sweat trickled down his face.
"Gun...... Guns!"
The wine woke up all at once.
He looked back, his eyes wide.
That's a bunch of hideous-looking murderers!
And at this moment, one by one, they raised their weapons and pointed them at him.
He took a sharp breath and exhaled:
"Ah!!h
"Murder !!"
The farce of the royal capital is officially opened!
β¦β¦
With the roar of the city gate, the royal capital, which had been peaceful for hundreds of years, ushered in its darkest night.
The fire is burning!
Not only did the city gate catch fire, but the fire of greed in the hearts of the pirates was also completely ignited.
With the help of the rebel army, in less than ten minutes, the pirates rushed into the city.
Not surprisingly, after seeing everything in the city, the eyes of many pirates instantly turned red, and their breathing became short.
What's in front of you?
O riches!
Greedy hearts instantly turned into beasts of prey and gnawed at their hearts.
"Hoo ββ"
A pirate captain gasped and glared at a pair of greedy eyes: "Little ones, rob me! Aim at those little nobles to rob!"
Yes, they are not stupid, they understand that the more powerful the nobles, the better the territory they are in, and the more they are protected by the city guards.
In this case, the pirates who knew that they had a few pounds and taels instantly chose their target.
"Sure enough. β
Kanter, who was already on his way, glanced back at the scattered pirates, "These guys are completely crazy as soon as they come in, I hope this group of guys can buy some time." β
As he spoke, he waved his hand.
"Little ones, follow me!"
"Yes! Captain!"
The pirates shouted in unison, smirks on their faces.
Are they afraid of the city guards?
Of course I'm afraid!
This is the royal capital!
Someone's home base!
But......
It would be different if there was an insurgent army intervening.
They may not be able to keep the city guards from doing so.
However, it was still possible to let the city guards get the "sortie order" more than ten minutes late.
So, grab it to your heart's content!
Before the city guards came!
β¦β¦
At the same time, several figures stood on a towering clock tower.
Huhuhu~~
The cold wind blew, and the hem of the cloaks on the figures was blown to the sound of hunting, but it was as if they had taken root under their feet.
They just watched, looking down at the rising fire below.
However, the figure on the other tall building also attracted their attention.
He wore untimely black sunglasses, exuding a hint of coldness all over his body, and watched all this happen speechlessly.
"Is that your choice?"
"Rebels!"
"It's justβ"
He turned his head and looked in the direction of the palace, lost in thought.
Finally, one of the people on the clock tower couldn't help it.
"Are we just watching?"
"Look. β
The voice of the reply was low, like an undercurrent under the sea.
Seemingly calm.
β¦β¦
Ophelia frowned, a little confused by Harut's words, but she understood that this was not a man without a arrow, and since he had spoken, it was ......
Does this mean that something is happening in the city?
She was a little uneasy.
This is the royal capital.
It is the center of power in this country, and it is the pillar in the hearts of countless people.
Once something happens here......
Thinking of what happened next, Ophelia couldn't help but shudder.
"Your Excellency......"
She took a light breath to calm herself down, turned around and asked, "Is something big going on in this city?"
Instead of guessing, it is better to ask directly.
"Oh. β
Harut followed Ophelia, and there was a hint of emotion in his tone: "Someone is coming to attack the city." β
"Siege!?"
Ophelia's pupils shrank: "How is it possible, the alarm bell is not ...... No, if there is an internal response......"
She suddenly realized something: "It's not an ordinary time, the city walls are patrolling three times as many people! And there are barracks nearby, if there is no alarm......
"This means that they were destroyed in a short period of time. β
"Either the enemy is very strong, or it's ......"
She closed her eyes: "There is an internal response." β
In a hurry, she had already led Harut to the museum.
β¦β¦
City guard camp.
Burst!
With the sound of blades shattering, the last soldier fell.
"Whew-"
The assailant let out a long breath and wiped his sweat with his hands.
However, under the wipe, his face was stained with blood.
There were a total of 132 people in the city guard camp here, of which 28 were some rebels, and most of the rest were private soldiers of noble families.
It is not too appropriate to say that they are private soldiers, but they are more or less related to the nobility.
For example, some guys are the sons of such and such a down-and-out nobleman who came to gild, and some are poor relatives of such and such nobles.
It was through them that the rebels' internal response was able to take the city guard camp in the fastest time, and won the most precious ten minutes.
The rest of the city guard camps also have their men, and they will probably be able to fight for ten minutes after that.
After that, it will take more than ten minutes to mobilize soldiers and hunt down pirates.
And if there is a fight, it will probably take more than ten minutes.
"There should be enough time. β
Silently calculating the time, the inner should looked into the distance, even if there was a high wall to obscure his vision, he seemed to be able to see through it: "Come quickly." β
"Future. β
