Chapter 169: No Appreciation
For a moment, the surroundings were silent, and no one in the room spoke. Especially Chen Tianhao, he seemed to be completely stunned, and the two eyeballs, which were like deep sunken in the orbit, also popped out as if they were absorbed.
The silence lasted for a while, eventually broken by Ozturk's eerie laughter.
"Hahaha...... Chen Tianhao, you are really a scheming!" Ozturk opened his bloody mouth, "At first, I wondered, how could you find two human helpers when you were seriously injured like this. It turns out that you have taken someone else's companion hostage and threatened them with it!hahaha......" Ozturk's wicked laughter continued for a long time, "Honestly, you are really despicable!"
"He's not just kidnapped our companions! Qian Hao immediately added. He also lifted his cheeks slightly, as if he were smiling sarcastically.
"Oh, what did he do?" Ozturk's face quizzled, "I want to hear about it!"
"When we first found him, he was covered in bruises. No, it should be said that it has reached the point of death. It was our physician who took the heart to save him. As a result, he was ...... good," Qian Hao's eyes shot an angry look, "not only did he not express his gratitude, but he also hijacked our doctor and threatened us to do his errand!"
"Oh?" Ozturk listened carefully, his two wolf-eyed eyes with green lights still swirling in his sockets from time to time, "is that really the case?" After a pause, his eyes narrowed, "It's not surprising. That's why you're fighting us to the death like that!
"Yes, why would we have nothing to do to offend two unrelated foreigners!"
"If that's the case!, then we don't have to fight like this!" Kapil took a step forward, his arm quickly waving down to the side, "We should deal with the person who stirred up our relationship!" As he finished speaking, his troll face also turned towards Chen Tianhao.
Seeing this, Chen Tianhao twitched his lower body. He immediately ducked behind Jiang Jingwen, and with an embarrassed saliva-swallowing movement.
"Hey, did you hear me!Chen Tianhao!" Ozturk grinded his teeth viciously, "You caused all this. You're not going to be caught?"
"Hmph, do you want me to be caught?" Chen Tianhao gasped a few times, "There is no door!" He suddenly glared at Shen Mengting, "Hey, I said what is the matter with you two? If you are casually talked about by other races, you will be my enemy?"
Shen Mengting didn't reply, just stared closely at Chen Tianhao, who was currently jumping off the wall in a hurry.
"Chen Tianhao, don't die anymore!, I advise you to let that girl go quickly!" Ozturk said, straightening his chest.
"You...... You ......" Chen Tianhao put the assassin's blade in his hand and took a step closer to Jiang Jingwen's neck, "Don't come here!"
"Chen Tianhao, you can't threaten anyone anymore!" Kapil lifted the weapon in his hand, he looked confident, "As long as the two of us make a move, you will definitely not be able to hurt that girl." So we all advise you to get acquainted with each other and surrender quickly!"
Chen Tianhao instantly breathed a sigh of relief. He knows his situation, and he has basically reached the point where he will never recover.
Previously, he had been able to threaten others with hostage-taking because of his Assassin's quick reflexes. However, if Ozturk and Kapil, who were also assassins, would do it, Chen Tianhao's advantage would be gone.
The two of them would definitely use the swift wind to rescue the hostages before Chen Tianhao could make a move! Chen Tianhao's speed with his hands did not have a significant advantage over the legs of the two assassins. This is the reason why Chen Tianhao lost his advantage.
If he didn't have the hostages in his hands, then Chen Tianhao would have lost the weight to manipulate those two human beings. What's even more terrifying is that the humans who were threatened by him before may also attack him in return.
Thinking of this, Chen Tianhao slowly paced backwards and retreated.
"Hmm, what's wrong? Chen Tianhao! Are you scared? If you're afraid, let them go and surrender quickly!" Ozturk glared.
"You...... Don't think! Don't want to make me surrender!"
"You must know very well, if Kapil and I make a sudden move, we can nullify you before you can hurt the girl. So, don't be obsessed with it anymore. ”
Chen Tianhao quickly looked at everyone in turn, "You ...... You ......"
"Hehe! you also have today!" Qian Hao re-lifted the longbow in his hand. However, after he pulled the bowstring, the light arrow in it was not aimed at the two werewolves and trolls, but at Chen Tianhao, who was a little panicked.
It should have been that seeing that Chen Tianhao had no intention of surrendering, Ozturk twisted his neck a few times casually, "Alas! Chen Tianhao! It seems that you are toasting and not eating and drinking!"
"Yes, if you surrender or not!...... then," Kapil smiled treacherously, "and we have to kill you!"
"You ......" Chen Tianhao's hands seemed to be trembling slightly, "You ...... Damn it...... Damn!" Two rows of his teeth chattered, revealing a faint stumbling sound.
"Chen Tianhao, since you are so obsessed. So...... You're welcome!" Ozturk's tone went from low to high, and when the words stopped, he raised the thin sword in his hand and rushed towards Chen Tianhao.
Kapil also followed, he lowered his body slightly, and suddenly disappeared out of thin air.
The two assassins used the Wind Walk at the same moment to attack Chen Tianhao.
Chen Tianhao understood the impending threat in front of him, he gasped, and his hands were shaking uncontrollably. He knew very well that it might be a few tenths of a second before the two assassins suddenly appeared in front of him and stabbed Chen Tianhao to death with their swords.
No, Chen Tianhao clenched his whole body.
However, although he could sense all this, there was little he could do about it.
Ozturk and Kapil were on either side and were rushing towards Chen Tianhao. At this moment, time seems to have stopped. He himself, Jiang Jingwen, who was held hostage by him, and even everything around him except for the two assassins, completely stopped. All that's left is the quick running of the two assassins.
"No!" shouted out a word with difficulty, and Chen Tianhao wanted to take action.
But everything was in vain, every time Chen Tianhao moved his body slightly, the two enemies would quickly take a step closer. Chen Tianhao's speed is never as fast as they would be.
No! No! It won't work if it goes on like this! You must also use the swift wind step to escape the enemy's attack! Chen Tianhao slowly moved his eyes. But he knew that if he used the Wind Walk, he could indeed temporarily escape the threat in front of him. But the hostages in their hands had no choice but to give up. With the current situation, he didn't have time to drag the hostages away. If the hostages are lost, he will lose everything.
What should I do? What should I do? Chen Tianhao was caught in that dilemma.
Just as he was torn between a few moments, a golden light stood in front of him and the two enemies who were rushing towards him.
The light was extremely impactful, cutting off the paths of the two Assassins and forcing them to stop.
The moment the assassin stopped, everything around him returned to its original state, time seemed to start moving again, the sound returned to normal, and Chen Tianhao himself and the hostages in his hands could move easily.
"What?" Chen Tianhao had doubts on his face, and the first thing he said after recovering was to ask. Then, after looking at Shen Mengting, he understood what was going on.
It turned out that the bright light just now was emitted by Shen Mengting, and it was the swordsman's skill shockwave. It was this skill that forcibly interrupted Ozturk's attack.
Ozturk looked very surprised, he pointed the wolf's head at Shen Mengting in confusion, and his face also revealed a sense of viciousness, "Hmm, what's the matter with you?"
Shen Mengting maintained the appearance of attack for a while, and after staring at Chen Tianhao for a long time, she gradually put down the sword in her hand. She lowered her throat and then twisted one shoulder, "Excuse me! I shouldn't have ordered you to attack that human assassin!"
Ozturk's expression was even more surprised, "What?" he took a big step back behind him, "What are you talking about?"
"Didn't I make it very clear? What? Your two wolf ears, can't you understand the words?" Shen Mengting put on a look of resistance.
"You ......" Ozturk was obviously a little overwhelmed, and he breathed heavily, "Why? Why did you stop me just now? You know!" he angrily pointed at Chen Tianhao with his claws, "If you hadn't stopped him just now, I would have taken off his head." Then your companions will be saved, and we won't have to make any more of a fuss. It's a good thing, why are you stopping it?"
Qian Hao didn't understand Shen Mengting's intentions at all, so he opened his mouth and looked at her blankly. During this time, Qian Hao's eyes kept blinking dryly.
In fact, it's not just Qian Hao, Zhao Yu is also very puzzled by this. He had imagined that the battle would end quickly, so that he wouldn't have to cling to the cave wall as he did now.
The cave wall was filled with cracks in stone rock, and it was rough to the touch, causing some pain in both palms of Zhao Yu's hands. For this reason, he had to refrain from touching his hands. Sometimes, however, due to the urgency of the situation, he would unconsciously re-touch his hand to the cave wall.
Soon, he seemed to have touched something, which was different from everything he had groped on the cave wall before.
What's wrong? Zhao Yu turned his head to look at his hand in confusion. Soon, he saw one of his hands, touching something that looked like a switch.
What is this? Zhao Yu narrowed his eyes.
This switch-like object is actually quite hidden, that is, a small dot on the wall of the cave, if it weren't for Zhao Yu's random fumbling, it would be impossible to notice.
"This ......" Zhao Yu faced the cave wall behind the quilt, his expression becoming more and more confused.
At the same time, Shen Mengting and the others didn't notice the abnormal Zhao Yu at all, and they were still settling the matter between them.
"I think I've made it clear. Shen Mengting's head was slightly raised, looking a little unruly, "I never asked you to attack him!"
The person in Shen Mengting's mouth naturally refers to Chen Tianhao.
"Why? Why did you let us attack?"
Corresponding to the question asked by Ozturk, Chen Tianhao also looked puzzled.
"Is there any reason for this?" Shen Mengting shouted out of her mouth, "I didn't ask you to attack him from beginning to end, why do you make a claim?"
"But......" Kapil's head rushed forward, "attacking him is good for us." Not only can you save your companions, but you can also eliminate a hidden danger. Why are you stopping us?"
"Why don't I stop you?" Shen Mengting's footsteps moved, and she walked out of an arc next to Ozturk, "Everything is your own thoughts. ”
"But as you said before, you're only going to do it with me because this kid kidnapped your partner!" Ozturk stubbornly raised his clenched fist.
"Yes! That's what I said. But I didn't tell you to attack directly, I just wanted you to understand why I was going to fight you. Nothing else is expressed!"
"Then you don't want to rescue your companions?"
"Yes, of course I want to rescue my companions. But......" Shen Mengting stopped and turned her body directly at Ozturk and Kapil, "That's not for you to save either!"
"What?" Ozturk's mouth widened in disbelief, "I said, what the hell is this woman trying to do?"
Shen Mengting's neck twisted, and she set her eyes on Chen Tianhao, "We don't need you werewolves and trolls to interfere in our grievances with this person. Besides, you two foreign assassins have come to our Saran Kingdom, how can I not come and ask you about your behavior!"
Ozturk seemed to be thinking about something, he tilted his head slightly, and turned to Shen Mengting, "If you are for the treasure! Then let me tell you, you can't interfere at all." ”
"How can you say that?"
"The exact location of the treasure is known only to us Assassins, and only we have seen the map. You can't find out at all. Besides, there is no need for you to get involved in the treasure matter, it has nothing to do with you!"
"Hehe!" Shen Mengting shrugged her shoulders with a smile, "It's obviously a treasure buried in our Saran Kingdom, how can you say that it has nothing to do with us?"
"This treasure was originally buried by the Shenzhou Empire before the division of the human state, and the Shenzhou Empire is long gone now. So it can't belong to any country at all!" Ozturk's tone was so loud that it reverberated through the closed valley.
"Hehe! You're really right, anyway. It was originally buried by us humans. Then its ultimate ownership is naturally owned by us humans!" Shen Mengting responded without showing weakness.
"You ......"
"And since you mentioned humans, I want to emphasize one more thing to you, the wolf head. Anyway!" Shen Mengting raised her arm and pointed at Chen Tianhao, "He is also a human being." How can I watch him be killed by you foreigners!"
An impatient look gradually appeared on Ozturk's face, and there was a faint murderous aura in his mouth, "You woman, you are sincere and can't get along with us, right?"
"Hah! You wolf head seems to be on point. Don't forget, this is the land of Saran. It's not just any other race that can be presumptuous. ”
"What did you say?" Kapil stepped towards Shen Mengting's location.
"What, trolls, do you have any problem with what this girl said?"
"Arrogant and rude stinky woman! I really want to tear your mouth apart!"
"Alright, Kapil!" Ozturk stretched out his arm and stood in front of Kapil. With a slight effort, he patted Kapil back.
"Captain! This woman is too ignorant! We wanted to help her, but she didn't appreciate it at all!"
"It's normal not to appreciate it! after all...... We are indeed foreigners. Ozturk said slowly.
Qian Hao approached Shen Mengting at this time, he was full of incomprehension about Shen Mengting's behavior, and even a little angry. Regardless of the treasure, the first thing is to confirm Jiang Jingwen's safety. Because as long as Jiang Jingwen is still in the hands of the enemy, then they will always have a handle to be held.
"By the way, we still don't know your names!, can you report back to us!" Ozturk respectfully gave Shen Mengting a fist salute.
Shen Mengting thought for a moment, and responded with the same action, "My name is Shen Mengting." ”
Then, she introduced the names of the other companions. And when Ozturk and the others were about to introduce themselves, Shen Mengting interrupted them.
"No need! Chen Tianhao had already told me just now. Your name is Ozturk, and that troll's name is Kapil!"
"Oh, you already know our names!" Ozturk smiled slightly, "then, our respective specialties must have been explained by that kid!" Seeing this, Ozturk's face was already full of anger.
"That's good!" Shen Mengting replied competently, "So, if you still want to go head-to-head with us, you may have to weigh it up!"
Ozturk twitched the corners of his mouth when he heard this, "Oh, you seem to be confident that you can beat us!"
"Of course!"
For a moment, the conflict between the two groups returned.
Ozturk spewed a cloudy breath out of his mouth. But in the next second, he regained his usual sense of relief. He began to pace around Shen Mengting.
"There's something I want to tell you. Since you just emphasized the human race, I also want to teach you a good lesson. This guy ......" Ozturk pointed sharply at Chen Tianhao, "He's not from your Saran Kingdom!"
Ozturk's tone was relatively steady, but there was a suffocating hint of seriousness in it.
