Chapter 17: Mutations

Linas in the prison car was unconscious, and there were several scars on her body, the scars did not look fatal, but they made Linas look very embarrassed, especially the long hair that was scattered and drooped at will, this appearance looked very haggard, Kaos could hardly imagine that Linas would appear in front of him with this down-and-out Luo appearance.

"Thisβ€”"

Ellie covered her mouth that couldn't be closed or opened, and Lolo kept staring at Linas, his eyes never leaving Linas's body, but it wasn't much better, if he could barely keep his composure just now, then now, he was hovering on the verge of rage.

"Card ...... Brother Kaos. ”

Ellie tugged at Kaos's shirt, but Kaos suddenly turned his head and smiled at her and Lolo.

"Stay out there in a while, I'm going to do something in the city. ”

Kaos spoke softly, and his voice was exactly the same as before, but his appearance seemed very terrible to Ellie's eyes, because no matter how much Kaos tried to hide his superficial emotions, the anger in his eyes could not be concealed in any way.

"Good...... Ok ......"

It was also the first time Ellie had seen Kaos like this, so she accepted it with some trepidation.

......

Kaos quickly sends Ellie and Lolo out and returns to Stanroe alone, but as Kaos enters the city, he finds that it seems to be even more noisy than before.

"What's going on?"

Kaos had a questioning look on his face, and he found the two passers-by who were discussing next to him, intending to ask what was going on.

Just now, Master Kling was escorting a female prisoner back to Stanrow, but suddenly the female prisoner in the prisoner cart woke up, she broke the prisoner cart and fled, and now Captain Hal is leading people to hunt her down. ”

"Is that so? Thank you. ”

Kaos immediately left the place after asking where the Knights were going.

If that's the case, then Lenas has fled here, which is a good thing. Next, as long as you find Linas and leave Stanro, then everything is acceptable.

Thinking of this, Kaos became excited, after all, he had faith in Linas and could save all the children in a village in front of Klin, so it would be absolutely fine for Linas to escape, at least that's what Kaos thought.

After inquiring along the way, Kaos found that the route of Linas's escape was basically the same as the route he took with Ellie and them to leave Stanro, and Kaos had an impression of many places along the way, if he didn't guess wrong, Linas should have wanted to go to the place where he located the teleportation scroll to find himself and everyone!

After coming to this conclusion, Kaos immediately took a shortcut back to the abandoned mansion where he woke up, and when he returned to the abandoned mansion, Linas had not yet arrived.

"Well, as long as you leave the news that she and the children are safe, Linas can get out of here!"

Kaos nodded happily, and he magically wrote on the ground, "We are all safe", after which Kaos planned to leave.

However, before Kaos could leave, suddenly, a loud noise was heard in the distance, and a figure of a person landed in the courtyard of the abandoned mansion like a meteor, and a spiderweb-like crack appeared in the ground around the other party.

Kaos quickly saw the figure of the other party, it was Linas, but at this time she seemed to look more embarrassed than in the prison car just now, and the blood from the wound on her arm dripped down her fingers, and there were many new scratches on the broken sword held in her other hand, and it looked like she had just experienced a big battle.

However, Kaos didn't care about this, and he couldn't help but feel a little happy to see that Linas was okay, at least Linas was still alive.

Kaos didn't plan to go out to meet Linas, because he knew that Linas was being chased by Hal at this time, and he hoped that Linas could easily escape alone, but if he brought himself, then maybe neither of them would be able to leave, so Kaos didn't plan to drag Linas back.

When Linas arrived, she glanced around, and the sight of no one here made her feel a little anxious, and she soon ran into the ruined house.

And in this process, Kaos hid very well, even Linas didn't find him, after all, Kaos, who has a strong affinity for magic, knows how to hide his magic perfectly, unless he pays special attention to feelings, Linas can't detect Kaos's existence, but now, Linas doesn't seem to be so careful.

Inside the ruined mansion, Linas saw the words left by Kaos at a glance, and when she saw these words, Linas seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

"Great!"

And a relieved smile appeared on her face.

Kaos also exhaled, in his opinion, this should be the end of this, Linas will leave here next, and then find a way to find them, although I don't know what method will be used, but as long as I pay a little attention, and then leave clues, Linas is a little more careful, everything should be smooth.

Just as Kaos fantasized about this happy ending and was about to leave quietly, suddenly, the sound of a wall being smashed came from the side, and a knight wearing delicate armor and holding an iron sword walked in.

"It's really careless, I actually let you run away for so long, if I let you go next, Young Master Klin will probably be angry. ”

The person who spoke was none other than Hal, the head of the Knights of Stanrow.

Linas looked at Hal with a look of surprise and gritted her teeth.

"Is it so close?"

"Hmph, how could I let you escape again, if this happens again, then won't my Knight Master be in vain?"

As soon as the words fell, in the blink of an eye, Hal appeared in front of Linas, and at the same time raised the iron sword in his hand, and then slashed towards Linas.

Linas's face changed greatly, and she didn't have time to dodge, she immediately blocked with the broken sword in her hand, but just when the iron sword and the broken sword collided together, the powerful force directly pressed Linas to her knees.

Kaos, who was hiding in the shadows and seeing this scene, couldn't help but show a look of horror, because Hal didn't show such great strength when Linas and Hal first met.

Hal suddenly pushed Linas back with force, and then rushed directly at Linas, wielding the iron sword in her hand, and Linas had no time to dodge, she was forced to take Howl's attack.

However, Hal's attack speed was very fast, Linas couldn't see Hal's movements clearly, and his defense was only relying on subconscious behavior, and such thoughtless behavior was only vain to increase the wounds on Linas's body, and soon, Linas had a lot of new wounds on his body.

"It's over!"

Hal shouted, and then he swung hard, only to see that the iron sword directly knocked the broken sword in Linas's hand out, and Linas didn't realize what it was, Hal kicked Linas out with a direct kick.

Linas hit the wall of the ruined mansion and stopped, and Linas had no strength to get up again.

Seeing this, Hal slowly approached Linas, and in the process, Hal also happened to notice Kaos's handwriting.

"Oh? this is ...... Oh, I see, no wonder you fled here, because the teleportation point is here?"

Hal seemed to understand why Linas would stop here, or he would have had to take a little longer to catch her.

"To be honest, I don't want to embarrass kids who haven't grown up yet, but I'm only going to do what I command, so there's something I can't stand up to. ”

......

Kaos witnessed the whole process of Linas being taken away again, from the time Hal appeared until Hal took Linas out of the abandoned mansion, Kaos never made a sound, because he knew that once he was discovered, then he would only be captured, so he was very quiet throughout the process.

However, Kaos never expected that Hal's strength was so strong, Linas had no power to fight back in front of Hal, and he didn't even have a chance to struggle, and Linas lost without a chance to use his sword skills at all.

"This ...... This ......"

Kaos also seems to know how the injury on Linas's body came about, and if he faces such a strong opponent, it will not be easy to hold on to this point!

However, Linas has only one purpose, and that is to make sure that everyone is safe, and she is glad that she has already got the answer she wants here.

"Linas ......"

......

Kaos walked out of the abandoned mansion in despair, and a deep sense of self-reproach arose from his heart.

The feeling of powerlessness when Linas was captured made him feel how sad it was for him to feel weak, and he could only hide in a place where others could not see and silently watch the whole process of Linas's capture, and Kaos couldn't even make a sound in the process.

"Why! Why is it so weak, why!"

has already said that he wants to help her, and he has already said that he wants to grow up, but is this still the only thing he can do?

Kaos clenched his fists tightly, Kaos couldn't do anything but anger and resentment, and he hated himself like this, hated himself like this, hated himself for being so useless, hated himself for being so powerless.

"So all of this hasn't changed!"

Kaos originally thought that he had grown up a little, but now it seems that he is still as weak and incompetent as before, which can't help but remind Kaos of himself a month ago, what is the difference between his appearance when he left Luodong City and now?

I don't know how long it took, Kaos came to the city gate as if he had lost his soul, and here on the public notice board next to it, a lot of pedestrians gathered.

Out of curiosity, Kaos also went to take a look, and the moment he saw the latest news on the bulletin board, Kaos's pupils constricted.

"In the afternoon, at the landing square, Young Master Klin decided to execute the prisoners he had arrested. ”
