As soon as he squeezed into the alley, Bran gasped and asked his companion with sweat, "Whew." Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info is finally safe. What do we do next?"

Leonard raised his arm, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and replied with his back pressed against the wall: "In this ghost place full of enemies, you can only take one step at a time." ”

Tina, who had already touched the exit on the other side of the alley, heard the words and did not look back: "Maybe we should ask someone else for help, and ask the pedestrians on the road what to do." ”

Leonard asked curiously, "What!?, is there any pedestrians on the road at this late hour?" and with that, he and Bran ran to Tina's side, looking up at the other side of the block. I saw an old woman wearing a cloak with a hood and a hunched back, holding a papier-mâché lantern in her left hand, a large black package on her right shoulder, and a wooden cane in her right hand, walking slowly on the sidewalk beside the road.

Seeing this, Bran asked uncertainly: "Do you want to go over and ask?"

Leonard clenched the broadblade sword in his hand just in case, and followed Tina cautiously as she walked forward, responding to Bran, "Go ahead." I don't think an old woman should pose much of a threat. ”

Tina didn't care if Leonard agreed or not, she had already walked up to the old woman's side and asked the other party very politely: "Old woman." It's so late, where are you going?"

The old woman replied and asked, "I'm going to see my sons and bring them supper." Excuse me, girl, it's so late, where are you going?"

Tina replied sincerely: "We are new to the city, passing through this place for business, because we don't understand the rules of this place, we don't have a good citizen certificate, we can't stay in the hotel, and we can't get out of the city in time." So I've been wandering around the city, looking for a place to stay. ”

When the old woman heard this, she showed great sympathy for them and said, "This is not good." Ever since Governor Gerrit came. Patrols hunt people around the city every night. If you don't like it, then go and spend the night with my son. ”

When Tina heard this, she couldn't help but thank her with joy: "Then thank you so much." ”

The old woman opened her mouth again and expressed her opinion: "What is there to be thankful for? People always have to help each other when they go out." My son used to receive a lot of help from others when he was away from home. But my son runs a gambling house on Kek Lok Street. A girl's house like you goes to that place, it seems that there is blood that is not suitable. ”

Tina's reply was irrelevant: "As long as it's a place to stay, there's nothing that doesn't fit." We just had to stay for one night. ”

Perhaps because she felt lonely, or perhaps because she had not been talked to for a long time, the old woman led Leonard and them all the way to Bliss, and they kept telling some things about their son: "Because my son runs a gambling house and can afford to pay taxes, we will stay in this city." Serious rich people have actually moved away a long time ago.

The rest are either poor people who have nowhere to go, people like my son who have opened entertainment venues to serve the Vosfitta army, and merchants from the Five Elements Chamber of Commerce, and the staff of the Naknaru and Jiluo Charge d'Affaires. Especially the merchants of the Five Elements Chamber of Commerce, even the soldiers of Vosfitta did not dare to provoke them. The magnates of Vosfita, Naknaru, and Jiluo seem to have close ties with this chamber of commerce. Even my son is now doing everything he can to join this chamber of commerce..."

Then Leonard and the others came to the brightly lit street near the southern city, with inns, pawnshops, and money houses, and passed on the sidewalk across the street from the leading bodyguard.

The old woman led Leonard and them to the end of the whole street, closer to the location of Nancheng District, and asked: "If you are a business traveler, you should know about the Five Elements Chamber of Commerce?...

Tina responded: "Hmm..." At this time, the group was about to turn and enter the nearest street to Nancheng District. -- Bliss Street.

Before turning the corner, the old woman suddenly stopped her steps and solemnly told Leonard and the three of them: "Go further, you must be careful." There will be many merry-seeking officers and soldiers of Vosfitta in the streets. You'd better bend down and keep your head down, and don't look up and look around. ”

After communicating with Leonard and Bran for a moment with her own eyes, Tina replied in the affirmative, "Yes. We'll do it. So the old woman led them around the corner and stepped into the realm of Bliss Street. Originally, the street consisted of rows of low-rise bungalows and was an area where the poor lived. Now the bungalows have been bulldozed and converted into buildings with several floors. Noisy brothels and gambling houses of all sizes are dotted throughout.

Drunk and golden, the lights are bright. Colorful lanterns hang high outside the doors of these entertainment venues, reflecting the golden signs. Groups of Vosfitta soldiers were wandering the streets in groups. Some of them were full of wine and were supported by prostitutes or companions, some were sucking the powder of bliss, and some were constantly making loud noises. Upon arriving here, the old woman noticeably quickened her pace, leading the three Leonards straight to her son's gambling house.

I saw a drunken captain, accompanied by several subordinates, who was being supported by two prostitutes and his right hand while passing by Etina, suddenly stretched out his right hand, lifted the hood from the female mage's cloak, and drunkenly shouted: "Little girl! Come here, how about playing with Grandpa!?"

Because in this city where young women are afraid to go out at all, it is either men or middle-aged and elderly people who walk around the streets in cloaks. So the captain inadvertently noticed that Tina's walking posture didn't seem to be consistent with others.

Tina heard the captain's flirtatious words, and at the same time felt the hood behind her neck being firmly pulled, and hurriedly straightened her waist, raised her head, stared at the other man's face with angry eyes, and shouted, "Let go of your dirty hands!"

The flushed captain also stared at Tina's face obscenely, clutching the other party's hood tightly, and laughed shamelessly: "Little girl... No... Sure enough, it's a virgin. Uncle Ben has money..."The drunken guy thought he was still in the brothel.

Seeing this, Tina suddenly felt unprecedented anger, raised a kick, and kicked the captain fiercely in the lower body: "Go die!"

The captain of the soldiers immediately received a heavy blow to his lower body, and the pain was incomparable, and he let out a long wail: "Oh!-" I saw him cover his crotch with both hands, and sit on the ground with a bent ass, and his head was covered with sweat, and he was half awake in an instant.

Leonard, who was standing next to Tina, saw that the matter could not end, and hurriedly reminded his partner: "Hurry up!" saw Bran take Tina's wrist and pull her and start running back desperately.

At this moment, Leonard, in order not to implicate the old woman and be suspected by the Vosfitta army, hurriedly pushed the old man to the ground from behind, and then opened his legs and chased straight in the direction of Tina and Bran. The old woman, who fell to the ground, pretended to touch her coat pocket, and then cursed: "Bastard!—which little cub stole my wallet..." Seeing this, the soldiers of Vosfitta thought that it was the great swordsman who followed the old woman to pickpocket, so they did not go to the old man's house.

At the same time, the captain of the soldier sitting on the ground took out a steel whistle from his pocket, put it in his mouth with his left hand, and began to blow it violently in succession, and at the same time stretched out his right hand and pointed in the direction of Leo and the three of them, and shouted loudly: "Rebels!--... Arrest a few of their rebels!--..."

Shhh Civilians who dared to provoke the Vosfita soldiers were labelled as rebels and punished with the severest punishment. It wasn't that the Captain really decided that Leonard and the three of them were rebels.

When the captain's subordinates heard this, they gathered around with the other Vosfita officers and soldiers, and chased after Leonard, shouting loudly: "Stop!" "Don't run!" "You all stop me!-"... The Vosfitta soldiers were all looking for pleasure, some were drunk, some were indulging in the flesh of prostitutes and couldn't extricate themselves, so they were not well-dressed, they were not fully armed, and their pace was unusually chaotic, and they couldn't catch up with the Great Swordsman and the others at all.

Not daring to stop for a moment, Leonard, who chased Tina and Bran and ran to the end of Elysium Street in one breath, couldn't help but look back at his pursuers, and stood in place, gasping for breath and said to his companions: "Fortunately, I was not caught up by the enemy." ”

But at this moment, in the distance in front of Leonard and them, the flame of the lantern flickered. Shhhh The three of them were sandwiched between two groups of enemies rushing from the front and back, and there were houses on the left and right sides, and there was no way back for a while, and the situation could be described as precarious.

Bran raised his eyebrows and asked loudly, "What should I do!?"

Leonard raised his broadsword with both hands: "Just fight them!"

Tina strongly disagreed with Leonard's reckless decision: "There are thousands of enemy soldiers in this city!

Leonard was so anxious that he asked loudly, "Then what else can we do!?"

Suddenly, a voice familiar to Leonard came from not far away: "Come to me!-" I saw a dark figure standing at the entrance of an alley, shouting at the three of them.

Leonard waved like a life-saving straw, and ran to the location of the black shadow with Tina and Bran at full speed: "I can't care so much!

I saw that the black figure in front of me was a man wearing a black cloak, holding a lantern made of fiberglass and metal in his right hand, and a man with long flowing blond hair, a majestic figure, and a heroic appearance. Leonard couldn't help but widen his eyes in extreme surprise, staring at the other party's face in confusion and asking, "Are you..."

Seeing this, the blonde man in front of him opened his mouth to interrupt Leonard's words, and explained to the three of them in a gentle tone: "First meeting, hello everyone." Get out of here with me. ”

At this time, a large group of shouting patrol pursuers, waving their weapons, had chased Leonard near the entrance to the alley behind them: "Stop!-" "Bastard!-" "Don't run!-"...

Seeing this, the blonde man ran out of the alley in a few big strides, facing the patrols that were rushing in and reminding Leonard: "You guys go ahead first." I'll break it off. When the Great Swordsman and the other three heard this, they immediately ran towards the depths of the alley. The blonde man crouched down with his right hand holding a lamp and his left hand aimed at the ground with a slam palm. - Concussive Alchemy!

Boom! I saw that the earth on the ground in front of him was surging forward like a wave, and swept up like a huge wall, and pressed straight towards dozens of pursuing enemy soldiers.

Immediately afterwards, the dirt rolled up by the concussive alchemy pressed down like waves, and in an instant, dozens of patrol pursuers who crashed into the air shouted miserably, falling heavily and smashing on the accomplices who followed them: "Uhh The scene was suddenly chaotic.

When another group of patrols arrived. I saw a large pile of dirt bulging like a mountain bag, almost burying the previous group of pursuers alive. Where the blonde man had squatted, a wide, deep pit appeared in front of him. The blond man was long gone.

Seeing this, the officer commanding the patrol raised the command knife in his hand and shouted loudly: "You must have hidden in the alley! Immediately afterward, he led his team into the alley.

Following the blonde man in the criss-crossing alleyways that extend in all directions, Tina, who bends and runs around, can't help but ask the other party's identity: "Who are you, why did you rescue us?"

The blonde man replied mysteriously, "I'm Nemo." As for why I rescued you. When you get to the place, you'll understand. "Nemo is the Tolsian word for a person who does not exist.

After a while, Nemo led Leonard and the others into a large hole in a broken wall and came to an abandoned villa. Outside the house, you can clearly hear the shouting voices of the patrol officers: "Quick! Even if you dig three feet into the ground, you have to dig out the rebels for me..."... Although the officers said so, there were commotions like the one tonight, so it was just talk.

The blonde man led the trio of swordsmen into one of the villa's bedrooms, and manually removed a stone bed to reveal a tunnel entrance. So the four of them went to the entrance of the tunnel one after another. The blonde man manually moved the stone bed back into place inside the tunnel.

Nemo led Leonard and the others down to a depth of more than three meters, through a tunnel, and into an empty cellar bar. I saw a tall and thin bartender in a black waistcoat, a white shirt, and a mustache on his lips standing in front of a counter full of liquor, carefully wiping the glass bottle of champagne with a soft cloth in his hand.

On the round wine tables, candlesticks with a silvery white metallic luster are placed. The candlestick is filled with orange candles that are emitting a dim glow. The quiet and quiet atmosphere in the store made Leonard and their nervousness instantly dissipate, and their mood couldn't help but calm down.

With the help of the light emitted by the candle, Bran stepped forward and asked the bartender, "Mel, this is..."
