Chapter Ninety-Six: The Road Is Uneven...... Just run away?

"Young Master, what's wrong with the chair you're sitting on?" Seeing Eddie's exaggerated movements, Gray Wrist couldn't help but be a little curious;

"Nothing...... Orange Wind, Nightstar, you two sit by the window, and Gray Wrist, you and I sit against the wall. Eddie kept the pace of his speech, trying not to make himself nervous;

Eddie felt that the soldiers were there to keep the streets in order...... But it's not good to see yourself through the window.

While waiting for the food to be served, Add observed the movement of the soldiers through the wall, and since it was only a wall, the causal points consumed were quite slow, and Eddie felt that it was more cost-effective to use.

The soldiers walked all the way down the street, seemingly unoblivious;

Just walk over like that...... Eddie was as nervous as the teacher was about to ask a question;

As Add's gaze looked through the wall, the group of soldiers didn't pay much attention to the tavern and continued to walk forward.

Whew, this is good, this is good. Add breathed a sigh of relief—and gasped again.

The group of soldiers had just walked out a dozen meters before they stopped again.

The leading soldier—a knight if you look closely—kept the group moving on, and walked toward the tavern with two soldiers himself.

...... Eddie shuddered slightly;

It's a bit panicked, but it's not a difficult situation to deal with, Eddie thought;

After all, the plan for escape Eddie had already conceived of a double-digit plan before, even if the knight walked over with his sword drawn;

But the knight did not enter the tavern—on the contrary he stopped at a small stall not far from the tavern door;

The stall owner was a wrinkled old woman, and Eddie could tell that there was only one emotion between the wrinkles - horror.

"The old lady is in trouble again. The clerk came with a case of food, and sighed as he moved the dishes to the table, "No way, after all, we are not short of food." ”

"Bad old woman, what a coincidence to see you here!" The knight's arrogant voice could be heard by Eddie in the tavern, "Made, I've been hiding for so long, and I've finally seen you!"

"Ahem, it looks like I've been escaping taxes for a long time...... As a result, it was blocked in this place, and there was no trick. The clerk sighed softly, and then left with the empty case;

"Your Excellency," said the old woman's voice, ...... trembling a little, "the tax collected has doubled since the arrival of Lord Chill Cone...... Business hasn't been good lately, and I can't help it......"

"I don't care if you can sell it or not! You are all the Viscount's people! In this city wall, the Viscount is not allowed to beep more than half a word if he wants you to die!" The more the knight spoke, the more angry he became, "Do you know how much labor and management have been scolded because of people like you, who are hiding around? I really want to give you two feet, and I am afraid that I will directly kick your old bone frame...... Get the money!"

The old woman took out two or three copper coins and plates from her bosom with trembling hands, and the knight grabbed them without looking at them: "That's it, that's it, you don't know how much you owe?"

"But...... I really ......."

The knight didn't say much, but picked up an egg and smashed it in the old woman's face;

"Let you remember it longer! Poor sour thing, is there anything of value?"

The noise outside the tavern was all in the eyes of the night star, and the corners of her eyes were a little red, and her body trembled slightly, and she looked quite sad;

But reason told her that even if she planned to rush over now, she wouldn't solve anything.

“...... If you really want to help her. Eddie squeezed his throat and said, "I'll go buy some groceries in a moment, and if we compare the situation outside to a fire, we'll be dry firewood......"

After all, the group of soldiers was not far away, and acting indiscriminately would only lead to fire, and although Eddie had a lot of plans, he couldn't afford to toss like that......

Nightstar pursed his lips and nodded, looking away from the old woman.

Judging from what the two of them were talking about, it was Viscount Hancone who raised taxes after he came to power, which caused the poor to not survive, right?

No wonder there are so many vacant houses outside Gangmu Village...... I guess I can't stand it and move away.

Add considered whether to stop using the Optical Analysis Module to observe, and now knew that the knight wasn't here for himself-

Add was about to order Heath to turn off the optical analysis module when a mutation struck;

On the other side of the street, a young man dressed in bright red is running towards the knight!

This speed—Add gasped, comparable to the speed he had when he turned on the Hunt's Breath!

This guy ...... A crystal nucleus that has definitely combined the attributes of dexterity!

The two soldiers beside the knight hurriedly stepped forward to stop the young man, but the two young men dodged and swept by;

Then, the boy flew up on the knight's head!

"Poof—" The knight screamed at the kick, and then ......

Take a step back.

Originally, this kick could have kicked people over, right? Add felt that the knight should have a crystal nucleus combined with his physique......

Of course, it could also be that the teenager's strength is too poor.

"Steelwood Castle, who are you?" the knight regained his footing, looking at the young man in front of him who was about to attack further, "Hurry up...... Take him down!"

"I?ha, I'm the Yellow Horn of the Blade of Fury Guild and known as the 'Crazy Bull'!" the young man reported to himself as he drew the iron sword at his waist and slashed at the knight, "You bullying dog, I've long looked at you unpleasantly!"

...... It's too blunt, Eddie shook his head slightly.

The knight was not ordinary, and easily drew his saber to block the attack, and the two soldiers immediately pounced, and the soldiers not far away also swarmed up;

"Blade of Fury...... The Viscount just raised you some time ago, and you repay you like this!?" Seeing that Huang Jiao wanted to turn around and run away, the knight beckoned the soldiers to chase after him;

"You're just using us like hunting dogs and throwing a few more pieces of meat away, so you don't think you're going to be right there!" Huang Jiao laughed and ran away, "Our guild won't obey you—at least not the backbone!"

Yellow Horn was so agile that only a well-trained knight with great strength could catch up, while the rest of the soldiers were left far behind.

The crowd of onlookers dispersed - after all, few people could catch up with the two;

But Eddie came interested.

There can be no doubt that the knight was on the side of the viscount, that is, his own enemy;

And the boy is the enemy of the knight...... The enemy of the enemy, you can definitely fight for it.

So, where is this boy going?
