More than twenty companions were wiped out at one time, and the remaining steel-winged demons suddenly lost a lot of momentum. Coupled with the action of other high-level professionals, it didn't take long for more than half of these demon scouts to be killed or injured, and they fled back the same way in embarrassment.

Successfully driving the murderous Steelwing Demon out of Jinshui City was a joy to behold. But Neo, who had just shown his skills, couldn't laugh at all at this time. He was always known as a timid magician in the Condor Legion, and no one knew that he was a magic swordsman except for General Gaiman, who adopted him. But the little girl in front of him can reveal his true identity. Neo even felt that the little girl hidden behind this silver mask was definitely a more terrifying existence than the Abyss Demon.

"What's the matter? I've been exposed, so I'm scared?"

Princess Lena's voice was like a bottomless lake, reflecting the secrets of Neo's heart very clearly.

"Come in with me!" Lena led Wendy, followed by the three Neo, through the crowd of kneeling on the ground praying for the peace of the One God, Ammon, to a no-man's ashram on the side of the temple for the faithful.

"For your father's sake, I can tell you an exception!" said Lena, who took off her mask, revealing her beautiful, delicate, and noble face, and took a golden pendant from her bosom and placed it in front of Neo.

"Princess Lena?!" may have someone who looks like Lena, but the pendant engraved with the golden eagle motif and symbolizing the supreme royal power can't fool anyone.

Neo suddenly said: "No wonder you recognized me at a glance, and you also saw through the intention of the Steel Wing Demon to launch the 'Dance of Death'! If it is Her Royal Highness Lina, a genius girl of the royal family, then everything can be explained." But I didn't expect you to take in the Campbell boy!"

Lena raised her eyebrows: "You know him?"

"I don't know, but I'm really here for his family's business this time......"

Neo turned his head, a flickering candle flame reflected in his eyes, and fell into a long memory: "If I'm not mistaken, it was twenty-five years ago... I wasn't 'Neo Gaiman' at the time, just a little beggar with no family, no family, no name. My companion and I secretly got into an ox cart full of hay to escape the cold. By the time we were discovered, the ox cart had already stopped at the house of a small nobleman in the south of White Moon City!"

Lena asked, "The Campbells?"

"No, but Mr. Campbell was a guest at that house. Neo took a deep breath, "The ornate houses, the beautiful fountains, and the faint scent of flowers, that was the first time I saw what a noble home looked like. I was like a little mouse crawling down the sewer pipe into the banquet hall, excited, excited, and overwhelmed! The master of the house, seeing us two little clay figures, looked at us with disgust, and ordered his knights to execute us. Just as my companion had been killed, and I had been cornered with swords by a couple of tall knights, Mr. Campbell came. He said that he was short of a slave in his house to do rough work, so he asked the master of the house to sell me to him!"

Lena said: "He really wants to help you in this way! Commoners have the justice of commoners, and nobles also have aristocratic principles! If he directly opens his mouth to save you, then the far master is afraid that he will turn his face on the spot." “

"Maybe. But he did not embarrass me, and took care of me very patiently for three days. You know, when I was a kid, I didn't have the same good temper as I do now..."

Hearing this, the magic bell muttered, "It's not much better now..."

Neo shrugged his shoulders indifferently: "At that time, I had an extreme personality and did not want to owe favors to others, so I quietly left there on the fourth day, and it didn't take long for me to meet my old man! And I've been thinking about the things in White Moon City, always thinking about when I will go back to see them and say thank you to them! Unfortunately, just a few days ago, I overheard someone talk about what happened in White Moon City—the Campbells were executed for colluding with the Blood Mage. And the City Lord of Carter, who executed them, was also found dead outside White Moon City soon after. “

"Lord Carter is dead?!" Ronin and Wendy exclaimed at the same time. Although they knew that Carter was not behind the scenes, they still felt some regret when they suddenly heard the news of the death of the executioner who killed their parents. Because there are some things that have to be done in person to make sense.

"Dead through. When I arrived at White Moon City, I found that Mr. Campbell's children had already been taken away. I felt it was my duty to help them, so I asked all the way here. But now it seems that my worries are unfounded. “

Lena got up and put on her mask, and her tone was unquestionable: "That's right, because these two brothers and sisters are now my people, and so are you." Something seems to be going on outside, let's go out and have a look!"

The four of them also heard the commotion coming from outside the temple. I saw that the people outside the quiet room were all pouring into the street with happy faces, and they all followed Lena out.

It's been a while since the Steelwings retreated. The blood stains on the long street were hastily washed with buckets, and wisps of light red liquid flowed down the brick cracks into the roadside drains, mixing with the original sewage, emitting an offensive light fish. But most of the hungry people choose to ignore it, and let the desire for hatred and revenge fill their brains.

To the south of the temple, near the central square of Jinshui City, the previously empty guillotine is now crowded with people, illuminated by hundreds of torches and oil lamps. Luo Ning and the others looked from afar, only to see more and more civilians and mercenaries gathering in the direction of the guillotine. And there was only one topic of discussion - in the battle just now, a famous mercenary group not only rescued a certain sheriff in Jinshui City, but also captured a steel-winged demon through cooperation.

The Steelwing Demon's sneak attack took dozens of innocent lives. Therefore, when the city lord learned of this, he immediately decided: to publicly behead the steel-winged demon on the guillotine in the center of the city. Indeed, for civilians who have just been frightened by a demonic attack, or even lost a family member, there is nothing more motivating than the fact that a demon is executed on the spot and told them, "Demons are not terrible;

The five of them followed the crowd all the way south, with Ronin and Neo opening the way, and soon squeezed into the innermost part of the crowd. Coincidentally, the steel-winged demon that was more than two meters tall also happened to be cut off at this time, and it was thrown onto the high platform.

Along with him was another familiar face, Nylon Gale, one of the sheriffs of Goldwater. At this time, he was holding a long sword in his hand, looking at the abyss demon lying on the ground with hatred on his face, and suddenly a sword hilt slammed into its head, causing a cheer from the audience.

In fact, if it weren't for the fact that Nylon and three or four soldiers were still standing on the execution platform, the excited civilians below the platform would have gone berserk and thrown bricks and stones at the demon with a blood stain on his face.

"Hiss, hiss, shiss......" The Steelwinged Demon was pained, and spat out a string of notes of unknown meaning, and then bared its mouth full of fangs, making a high-pitched and shrill sound, and laughed strangely.

Naturally, this move drew the wrath of the civilian population. Seeing this, Nylon didn't hesitate to kick the Steelwing Demon in the face, followed by another merciless beating.

Nyllon's behavior caused a tsunami of applause, but Neil vaguely felt that something was wrong: "The truly strong never bother to torture the weak! But this does seem to be very relieving! For the existence of the people who invaded the land of Morrowind and the wreckage of Morrowind, they should be treated like this!"

Above the high platform, the city lord of Jinshui City had already appeared, and was reading out the various crimes committed by the Steel Winged Demon in a furious tone. With every word he spoke, Nylon would mercilessly slap the steel-winged demon, and in a short time it would slap its face bloodied. And at this moment, several middle-aged people wearing gray hats and dirty gray robes suddenly came to Lena's side. When the civilians saw these middle-aged people, they did not dislike them for being sloppy, but took the initiative to get out of the way.

"These people are... Demon scholars?" asked Ronin in a low voice.

He vaguely remembered reading about this particular profession on the day of the auction – a group of great scholars who were brave, knowledgeable, persistent, and respected. They have dedicated their lives to research related to the Abyssal Demons, but they have also gained the ability to communicate with the Abyssal Demons and discover important information, and have played an important role in the first three wars against the invasion of the Abyssal Demons.

Before Princess Lena could answer, the people next to her were already clamoring for an answer: "Look, it's the demon scholars who are here! Master Dalton, tell us what that bastard demon is calling for!"

"Yes, yes, yes! He kept shouting and screaming, making a lot of noise!

"It's just ..."

The Demon Scholar motioned for the civilians to silence, carefully discerning the fainter and fainter cries of the Steelwinged Demon.

"It's saying... Lord Razil will avenge me!" said a demon scholar as he listened intently. Others took advantage of the light of the torches to write down every note of the demon.

"It also says... Damn Ammon... Soon, you're going to be wiped out!Oh, that's ridiculous!" the Demon Scholar shook his head.

"Yes! This demon is still talking nonsense when he is dying! What is the ashes! Let's let them die first! Haha!"

The laughter of the civilians did not infect Ronin not far away. Because from the first time the steel-winged demon looked at the people below, he had an uneasy feeling that he was being watched.

At this moment, the city lord finally finished his speech, and Nylon also riveted his full strength, and slammed his sword scabbard into the side of the steel-winged demon's brain. The Steelwing Demon rolled to the side a few times before being stopped by the executioner's outstretched foot. But its head was already hanging out of the air. What's even more coincidental: those scarlet eyes are facing the Luo Ning brothers and sisters standing at the front of the crowd.

Like Ronin, Wendy's heart suddenly felt extremely uneasy and fearful. It was as if in an abyss somewhere below the continent, a pair of eyes full of cruelty and evil suddenly opened, passed through the barriers of countless mountains and seas, and pierced into the depths of his soul.

"Brother!"

An icy chill suddenly hit every nerve in Wendy's body. She slammed into the spirit, and subconsciously turned around and threw herself into Luo Ning's arms. In a trance, Wendy's ears heard the demon's evil whispers again. This time, however, the demon scholar who was the translator did not translate immediately, but froze in place as if he had seen a ghost, allowing the staff in his hand to fall to the ground with a "click".
