"Didn't you notice that it had been quiet outside for a long time?"

Roger's reminder made the young people present and Alway look stunned, and the young people's faces suddenly turned ugly. As Roger said, it was unusually quiet outside tonight, and the snoring that was usually in the next shack had completely stopped at some point.

"I couldn't feel anyone's heartbeat except these sleepy slaves in the shack. Elvae closed his eyes and listened intently for a moment, but found nothing out of the ordinary. He whispered his discovery to the other two, and the young man sitting on the ground looked even more ugly.

"It's the members of the law enforcement team! Those people have been transformed by Fitz's occult arts, and at the cost of losing all the characteristics of the living, they have unparalleled power. The young man slammed his fist into the solid ground, apparently well aware of the consequences of falling into the hands of the law enforcement team, "Damn, I should have thought of that! They probably found me a long time ago, but they didn't do it just to get more companions." ”

"Then it looks like it's time for them to close the net, and we're the prey that we've strayed into. Roger, who crouched down, continued.

Guarded, Elway approached Roger, and through the dark canvas, there was something waiting for those present, and this situation was undoubtedly the most torturous.

"Hurry up Roger, what's not to do?" Elway turned his head and asked the squatting Roger in a low voice, Roger had been writing and drawing on the ground on the side since just now, not caring about the tense atmosphere that permeated the three of them.

Roger's voice sounded unhurriedly, "What else can I do, I don't know the average strength of those so-called law enforcement teams, I don't know the number of people on the other side, it's pure nonsense to talk about how to deal with it, but since they haven't rushed in yet, it means that there are still variables." Well, I've seen bigger scenes than this, so be quiet now. ”

"Sometimes I really don't know where you get your inexplicable confidence. Sighing, Elway muttered as he tucked his longbow behind his back. In order to cope with such a situation, the role of bows and arrows was already very weak, and Airway simply gave up the idea of using bows and arrows.

Looking back again, seeing that the young man was about to stop talking, Elway shrugged, "Don't care, he's always been like this, and I can trust him at this time." ”

After the initial panic, the young man slowly calmed down, and saw him stoop down and find a rusty knife from the place where he had been lying, the jagged blade of which made one doubt that it could have an actual effect, and that it could only be used to strengthen himself.

"Why do you call us outsiders?" asked Roger, bowing his head, as the young man came to his senses.

"What do you mean?" the young man looked confused, not keeping up with Roger's train of thought.

Roger stood up on his knees, dusted off his shirt, and explained, "As soon as we met, you asked if we were outsiders, why weren't we our companions who came to meet you, or were we the lord's spies?"

"You can't be someone who really knows, I'm sure of that. Ever since we were banished into the desert, our companions have fallen one by one, and now there are only a dozen of us left, and I can't even know the rest of them. As for you, it's even more unlikely that you're Fitz's people," the young man smiled self-deprecatingly, "That conceited lord doesn't bother to do that at all, and the powerful secret art is his capital that despises everything."

"If there is no hope of victory, why should you rebel against the lord?" asked Roger, who was walking outward. At the same time, there was a sound outside the thick canvas, and the swaying light of the fire shone through the gaps between the canvases, reflecting the faces of the three of them.

At this point, the young man calmed down, "Someone needs to stand up, and if we don't stand up, then slavery will never end." ”

"What are you talking about, why can't I understand it?" Although listening to the conversation between the two from the beginning, Elway was still confused.

"I'll explain it to you. Roger whispered as he stepped over the sleeping slave in the doorway. I saw that he didn't hesitate at all, stretched out his hand and lifted the hanging canvas, and then the three of them were exposed to the sight of everyone outside. For a moment, the hum of the bow and arrow winding mixed with the chaotic footsteps resounded through the night sky.

At this time, outside the work shed, a group of soldiers in black armor with spears surrounded them, silently surrounding a semi-circular human wall, the black armor made their figures almost blend with the night, and the same black armor depicted the fierce faces without exception, they must be the law enforcement team here. A little farther away on the building, scattered overseers with bows and arrows, with Roger's appearance, the atmosphere of the scene tense for a while, on the city walls, on the houses, countless sharp arrows aimed at him, Roger believed, as long as he made the slightest movement, they would be pierced into hedgehogs.

And so it was. The light dissipated in Roger's right eye, and the vague thoughts in his mind gradually became clear after witnessing this group of so-called law enforcement teams. The pensive Roger turned his head slightly, only to see that the young man's body was trembling slightly, but he was still holding on, even if he came to become a spy in the ruins of the True Knowledge Society, but in fact, he was just a member of the slave labor.

Facing the dry cold wind blowing in the night, Roger's voice rang out, "Then the last question, how did you escape the lethargic effect of the 'Emerald Dream'?"

"Bastard Roger, is this the time to ask about such a thing?" Elway, who was also targeted by countless bows and arrows, couldn't help but curse Roger in his heart.

Leaving aside the heavily armed law enforcement team in front of him, even the overseers who had been intimidating the slave laborers with whips during the day had changed into professional soldiers when they changed into standard armor, and they were half-crouching with bows and arrays, blocking all the dead corners around them, and Elway couldn't think of any way to escape for a while.

Hearing Roger's question, the nervous young man looked stunned, and it was clear that the three of them were in a difficult position, but Roger's calm appearance did not give people a sense of nervousness at all, the young man recalled for a moment, and said: "I just felt in a trance at the time, and when I came back to my senses, I saw that the people around me had fallen one after another, and I had to fall down with the trend, in fact, I didn't do anything special." ”

"Click"

Before Roger could continue to ask, a series of footsteps sounded behind the law enforcement team in front of him, and then the human wall composed of black armor neatly gave way to a one-person-wide position, and a middle-aged man who was also wearing black armor, but did not cover his face, stepped forward, and the coat of arms of the trident and hammer on the armor shone in the firelight.

As the middle-aged man approached, Elway and the unknown young man suddenly looked nervous, on the other hand, Roger stared playfully at the middle-aged man who was already one step away from him, and said, "I said, why didn't they rush in at the first time, it seems that they are waiting for you big man, you are the lord of Fitz, here?"

"Watch your words and deeds, rats in the gutter!" the middle-aged man who walked up frowned in disgust, as if he was facing a foul of foul smell, "If it weren't for the orders of the wise lord, you scum of the True Knowing Society would have been shot into a sieve by my subordinates, remember my name, little mouse, I am the first captain of the law enforcement team, Wren." ”

The tall Wren pointed at Roger's face and warned in a commanding tone, "Now put down your weapons and honestly follow me to meet the lord, my lord has been waiting for you little rats for a long time."

"Don't play tricks on me, you didn't say you had to be brought with you. Wren almost pressed on Roger, his big stubble face with an indescribable ferocity, "So control your expression, young man, a smile is not what a prey should look like if you fall into a trap." ”
