Chapter 30: Mi War, Beheading Zanke
In the dark of night, everything loses the hustle and bustle of the day, and the noisy streets begin to quiet down.
In the Imperial Prison, the warden is playing with the Emperor's Five-Vision [Observer] in his hand, which is a treasure given to him by Minister Earnest himself!
Although he was at odds with his attributes, it was difficult to use it for a long time, but it was only a short period of time that made me feel the pleasure of controlling everything.
It is really worthy of being one of the imperial tools produced by the first emperor with huge national strength.
It's amazing!
As if all living beings are ants, and only oneself is the creator, this kind of pleasure of overlooking all things is really refreshing! No wonder only the Emperor Gu Envoy can deal with the Emperor Gu Envoy, this is already a complete gap in the life level!
The amount can't be easily smoothed out!
Each imperial envoy is said to be equivalent to tens of thousands of troops! Then himself, even if he is an unqualified emperor, there will be no problem in dealing with thousands of troops alone!
So in the imperial capital, as long as you don't offend His Majesty the Emperor and Minister Ernest and General Bude, aren't the rest of the people at their own disposal?
Moreover, he is a character who is deeply trusted by Minister Earnest!
His backstage is the toughest in the empire, who do you have to be afraid of?
Isn't it for this kind of status that I have worked hard for half my life?
Now, I am a human being, and all my goals have been achieved!
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in!" Who could it be at such a late hour, the warden couldn't help but complain.
"Warden Chief." Come respectfully.
"Oh, it's Zonke!" The warden said, "What's the matter?" β
This Zonk is a new star in prison, ruthless, and torture methods are endless, but he is very optimistic about him. Although there are some people who are thirsty for killing, but what is it to kill a few people in their own business, they are all death row prisoners anyway!
"My lord, I do have something I would like to ask you for help with." Zank climbed up the pole.
"Huh?!" The warden is a little displeased, one of your subordinates really treats himself as a dish?
"What's the matter, say!" It's almost a reprimand.
"Yes, yes, that, there are no more death row inmates in the cell today......" Zanke said quickly.
"Huh?" The warden was a little surprised, did all those death row prisoners die, and then asked, "If it's gone, it's gone, what are you looking for me!" β
"Well, I haven't killed anyone today, can you help me figure out a way......" Zonke quietly closed the distance between himself and the warden.
"Get out of here and figure it out for yourself! Rubbish! "The warden felt that the person in front of him was really a wreck, the prison staff, what a system to be so cowering!
Turn around and walk away.
"So, Warden Chief, please!" Behind it was Zanke's gloomy voice.
The warden felt as if his back had been pierced by something hard.
"You!" The warden was furious, knowing that he had been seriously injured, his back was soaked with bright red blood, and he even felt that the scene in front of him was a little blurry.
No, I still have the Imperial Tool!
The Warden struggled to activate the [Observer], but the Emperor Gu did not respond, and then he remembered that he had already used it with a great deal of mental power today!
"What a piece of rubbish, Warden Master!" Zanke walked over with a sinister smile, stretched out his hand and pinched the warden's neck, the warden struggled desperately, but felt more and more miserable, "Emperor, it should be given to the master who suits him, isn't it?" What qualifies you to use garbage like you! β
"Ah...... Ah......" The warden was still struggling stubbornly, but his strength was getting smaller and smaller, and he squeezed out a sentence, "Zonke...... You...... You let me go...... We...... What's up...... It's all good...... Consult...... Ah......h
The voice stopped abruptly, and it turned out to be out of breath.
Zanke tossed the warden's cold corpse aside, disdainfully disdain, and turned away wearing God's five-vision [observer].
A few days later, a new face was added to the list of the imperial capital.
"Beheaded Zanke, who was formerly a caretaker of the Imperial Prison, killed the warden on ΓΓ, ΓΓ, ΓΓ, and seized the Emperor's Five-Sighted Universal [Observer], and now he is on the run, abusing and killing an innocent person every day, which is outrageous, and he is hereby wanted, with a reward of 500 taels."
Decapitated Zanke, with an ugly face, becomes mentally twisted due to the experience of being hurt by others as a child, and begins to take pleasure in killing. You have to kill someone every day to feel happy, otherwise you will be unhappy.
Now, having killed the warden and become a wanted prisoner in the Empire, he is still unrepentant.
"Ah, behead Zanker." Bake sneered when he saw the wanted warrant hanging at the city wall, as if he saw the gold beckoning to him. However, when he saw that Zanke had the emperor's line, his face turned green, and he used the subordinate to fight the emperor, which is the practice of a madman!
Bake is not crazy, he is very sensible, and he resisted his desire for the 500 taels.
β¦β¦
Downtown, a dirty collection house.
Even with Bake's kind control, it still can't change the filthy atmosphere here.
It is not only a place for the poor, but also a paradise for scoundrels and bullies.
However, every scoundrel and bully knows that the real boss of this piece is the deputy captain of the imperial capital garrison named Bake.
The other party is not only handsome (compared to scoundrels and bullies), but also rich and powerful, and has high martial arts, which is not something that these humble people can provoke.
They also know the principles of Bake, and pursue the requirement of not bullying the poor, so they can avoid the pursuit of those rich and noble families here.
Under the protection of Bake, they were able to survive, and this kindness was real.
On this day, the two little hooligans were drinking with their fists, and now these ruffians are no longer those who deceive the people, bully the weak and fear the hard.
Lord Bake has found several ways to make money for them, their income is stable, and they are living like people.
Moreover, with the support of a big character like Lord Bake, every thug feels that his waist can be straightened, and he doesn't have to look at the faces of those disgusting nobles anymore.
Besides, Lord Bake is a good person! He took care to maintain the peace and tranquility of the whole lower town, and he did not complain, although it was a little dirtier than the bustling streets, and no one cleaned it, but it was much better than before, at least there was no longer the stench of moldy garbage! Moreover, such a peaceful state of life here will not be found on the aristocratic street. The aristocracy took pleasure in ravaging the poor!
Compared to those nobles, any normal person can be said to be a good person.
β¦β¦
It was the sunset, and the sun had just set over the mountain.
The peasants carried the golden wheat they had just harvested back to their cozy huts, and the officials quickly indulged in the gentle township, for there was no one in the streets, not even the thugs.
However, at such times, there will always be people who go out at night because they are in a hurry, and become the prey of Zonk.
The lives of each person satisfied Zanke's bloodthirsty desires, and also created the pain of each family.
On this day, there are no pedestrians on the streets of the aristocratic district.
Zanke came to Downtown.
Xiacheng, the originally decaying area, has been revitalized after the governance of Bake, although there is no great sense of prosperity, but it has also become clean and tidy.
Zanke sighed in amazement, even suspecting that he was in the wrong place.
But no matter where you go, just kill one person.
Thinking so, Zank suddenly flashed the knife hidden in his arms and stabbed the unsuspecting pedestrian in front of him, who was facing away from him.
"Ahh
Blood splattered and splashed Zonker's face, but Zonk didn't care at all, and stuck out his rough tongue in satisfaction, licking and sucking the blood on his ugly face.
"Help, someone's killed!"
There were other people who saw it next to them, and they couldn't help but shout out loudly.
Zank glanced at them contemptuously, and his sword fell, killing the helpless civilians.
"Haha, Xiacheng, it's really a good place, let's come here to kill people in the future!" Zanke laughed twice, proud of his cleverness.
"Huh?"
Zank dodged sideways, dodging the sword that struck from the air.
The silver dagger glinted in the moonlight and grazed the top of Zank's head, startling him into a cold sweat.
"What people?! Sneaky one, get out of here! β
Zank cursed, raising his vigilance to the highest level.
"You're the decapitator Zonker, the guy with the 500 taels bounty?" It could be heard as a young man's voice.
"Hmph, I know how good you are Mistress Zonke! Uncle is in a good mood today, it's rare to be merciful, I don't want to kill you, don't get out of here! Zonke didn't have a score in his heart, just because he couldn't estimate the strength of the other party just now, in order to reduce the risk, he still decided to give the other party a chance to live one more day.
"But don't even think about leaving! As a wanted criminal, you dare to go to your uncle's territory to do nonsense, it's like looking for death! The young man was unrelenting and his tone was aggressive, "I didn't want to trouble you, but today it seems that you still have to die!" β
"Arrogance!" Zank is also not a good-natured person, grabbing the steel knife and heading for Bake.
"Here, it's a dragon you have to lie down for me, it's a tiger you have to lie down for me!" Bake also shouted, the black gloves on his hands glowed, and more than twenty short swords rose into the air, stabbing at Zanker.
"Vision!" Zanker urged [the observer] and immediately saw through Bake's thoughts.
"Want to drag me to death with a ranged attack? How naΓ―ve! β
Zanke sneered, and the steel knives in both hands danced like the wind, blocking the attack of all flying swords.
"Even if you can manipulate a flying sword, your spirit is limited!" Zank laughed, as if victory was already in his hands, and exposed Bake's weakness with one word, "With your ability, you can control up to 3 flying swords at a time, but through my ability to see, all your thoughts have been in my hands, so be enlightened!" β
Zanke kicked his legs and moved like a rocket, pressing towards Bake.
"Perspective!" Zank also activates the Emperor's second ability.
"There's no hidden weapon on you!"
With a smile like a triumphant, Zank no longer holds back, and even gives up on defense, and his speed surges again.
"That emperor is...... Five-vision omnipotence [observer]! "As a former personal follower of Brother Loya, Bake has a certain understanding of all the imperial tools that exist in the empire. These are the most comprehensive pieces of information collected in an organization.
Five-vision omnipotence [observer], the emperor with the five abilities of vision, farsightedness, perspective, future vision, and hallucination. Insight can see through the other person's mind by observing expressions, farsightedness can see distant things, perspective can see the target regardless of obstacles, future vision can see what happens next through subtle muscle movements, and hallucination can make the other person see hallucinations.
"Fighting in the dark, he has farsightedness, it's not easy for me to kill him, then melee combat is the best choice!" Once determined, Bake no longer hesitated and engaged in a fierce confrontation with Zonker.
Bake gripped a longsword that stayed in the air and slashed at Zank with a backhand.
Zank raised his twin knives and raised his leg to kick at Bake.
Bake raised his legs and stabbed each other, then retreated at the same time, separating each other.
"This guy's physical skills are very strong!" Bake secretly complained, he was not the type who was good at melee combat, and being dragged into this situation by the other party, let alone winning steadily, it was not impossible to even fail.
"This guy is tricky!" Zanke is also uncomfortable, the opponent's physical skills are not weak, the key is that the opponent's melee is out of order, but the move hits the key point, forcing himself to defend back, even if he predicts the opponent's movements in advance through future vision, it will not help.
"Hey, I said boy, what's your name?" Seeing that this trick didn't work, Zanke came up with a plan again.
"Bake." A faint reply, but domineering.
"Bake, how about you listen to these voices?" Zank asked angrily.
"Voice?" Bake's vigilance instantly increased, and his cold hairs began to stand up.
"I've been tricked." Zanke was overjoyed and silent.
Silently activating the Emperor's "Vision" skill, Zanke continued to give Bake's psychological hints: "You listen...... It's the kind of thing you can hear when you're quiet...... The ** sound of the people you killed coming from hell! β
It was as if he had heard the screams of the wanted criminals he had killed to collect the bounty, and an ominous atmosphere weighed down on him.
"Hates you, keeps saying, 'Come to hell!' I used to hear this sound when I was executed at the execution ground, but lately I've been screaming so much. β
"Maybe I'm talking nonsense, what are you going to do?"
Zonk's voice echoed faintly in Bak's ears, and it was especially eerie in the dark night.
"Haha......" Bake burst out laughing.
"What are you laughing at?" Zanke was puzzled by the other party's behavior, and according to common sense, the other party should have been mentally broken by the huge pressure at this time.
"If they really want my life, come on! I'm destined to go to heaven, and they can't reach me in hell! Bakron said.
Indeed, compared to those evil nobles and murderers, everything Bake did was to defend the peace of the country, and he had a clear conscience no matter what.
Moreover, most of the people he killed were heinous sinners!
"How so? You're going crazy! I thought you could understand my troubles, but you gave such an answer! Zonker's eyes widened, not just angry but also incredulous, "It's sad!" β
"Vision!" Zink gathered his energy and urged [Observer] to unleash his strongest skill, which also caused Zonk to wear out a lot of damage and mental exhaustion, and the same action slowed down.
However, this little time should be enough.
While the other party is still immersed in memories, take his life!
Zanke grinned and walked towards Bake.
Bake suddenly found that the Zanke in front of him was gone, and a purple-haired girl appeared.
"Natural!"
Bake's body began to tremble subtly, resisting the approach.
"How could it be that natural stay!" Although Bake has a certain level of understanding of [Observer], he is not aware of this hidden skill of the Emperor. The illusion of Ciel in front of him was so false that even Bake began to wonder if he was dreaming about the battle he had just had.
"Ciel, what are you doing here?" Bake asked dumbfounded.
Zanke is secretly happy, and it really works, "Vision" is not simply using ordinary illusions to confuse the enemy, but can also surface the most important person in the other party's mind in front of the other party.
"Watch the phantom of the person you love the most die, Bak!"
The sound of shouting echoed throughout the streets.
Bake remained motionless, as if enchanted.
I couldn't believe that natural dull was holding a knife and trying to kill himself.
β¦β¦
Hill buys a kitchen knife from a shop on Noble Street.
On the way back to the lower town, I happened to stagger with Zonke.
This also allowed her to survive from Zonk's knife.
"This knife is really good, make a delicious one tomorrow and send it to Bake!" The girl's face flushed with shame, completely immersed in fantasy, "He'll like it!" β
"Watch the phantom of the person you love the most die, Bak!"
Suddenly hearing this voice, Hill exclaimed, "No! β
Suddenly, I saw two figures in front of me, and something in one person's hand was inserted into the other's chest. The man immediately fell to the ground.
The dim light reflected that it was Bake's face.
"Natural? Why? β
He was met with a mocking smile from Zonker.
"This blow, I really ask you to die!"
The other knife in his hand was about to fall, but he suddenly found that someone had grabbed his wrist.
The tender and smooth touch on the wrist all indicated that it was a woman, but the strength of the other party was too great for Zanke to believe.
"Why can't you move?" Zanke was shocked and felt that his left wrist could no longer move.
Looking back, it was the cold face of a purple-haired girl.
"You, kill him......" The anger that couldn't stop pouring out from his voice erupted.
The kitchen knife was held up in the air by Hill at some point, and he slashed it hard, cutting off Zonker's left arm.
"Ahh Zank was in pain, and quickly broke free, pulling out the steel knife that had been stabbed into Bake's chest with his right hand.
"You stinky!" Zank was furious, and stabbed Ciel's steel knife in his right hand.
Although Hill has no combat experience, she has the natural quality to be a killer, and at this moment, she feels extremely calm, and the kitchen knife in her right hand accurately blocks Zonke's steel knife.
"How is that possible?" Zonke was shocked, the woman who came out of nowhere was so powerful?
Of course, Zonke ignored the fact that his own strength and speed were less than half of his heyday, and that he was temporarily unable to urge the Emperor.
However, these two conditions do little to help the situation.
Zanke barely suppressed Hill with his combat experience, but every time he saw his hand, he was blocked by Hill, and he couldn't help but feel anxious.
"Ahem......" This is Bake's voice.
Hill was careless and was injured by the other party.
Zink was about to take advantage of the victory, but he saw Bake's almost distorted face.
"You dare to hurt her?"
The steel knife in Zonke's hand fell from his hand, and his body was suddenly pierced by two short swords.
"You ......" Zanke fell silently to the ground and left the world.
Forcibly urging the vassals, causing Bake's wounds to crack again, and the blood gushing out red stained a large area of the ground.
"Bake." Hill was in a hurry with concern.
"It's fine, just a minor injury." Bake smiled gently, "Ciel, thanks to you, I might have died......"
The voice grew quieter, and Bake's eyes gradually closed.
"Bake, don't scare me." Tears welled up in Hill's eyes, and the strong girl couldn't help but start to be terrified when she encountered such a thing.
