Chapter 27: The Sword and the Snake

The full swing of the wooden knife made the chains wrapped around it rattle and rub.

Dodge, then grab the gap and quickly return fire.

The missing wooden knife immediately struck the opponent in the lower abdomen.

The black handguard immediately blocked between the lower abdomen and the wooden knife.

Valudo is tall and full of strong muscles, and just looking at his strength, he is probably on the same level as Randy. At this time, he was waving the broken ghost in a random manner, dancing with a clear sound of breaking the wind.

To be honest, there is no real combat meaning. It's too simple to attack the trajectory, and it's a tactic that fights with just the strength of the fight, no matter which one you play against? Tatsumi is not a threat. After all, Varudo is just a gangster, but he was born tall and has a strange force, and he fights fiercely, and if he is hit head-on, he will have to cultivate for a week.

And swimming? Tatsumi's attacks are obviously more disciplined, and hand-to-hand combat can't compare to the person holding the weapon in terms of attack range and attack intensity, but when it comes to flexibility, hand-to-hand combat has an advantage that no other weapon can match.

Indeed, Varudo's swing is very threatening, so it is enough not to hit it directly.

Cut, like a fly. Valudo was a little annoyed. Hit that hateful face with all his might.

I really don't learn the lesson. Swim? Tatsumi thought so.

From the beginning, in order to convince Valudo, he deliberately did not use the speed style that he was good at. The terrain of this small theater is complicated, and for him, with the reasonable use of the terrain, he can easily take down Varudo with his conceit, but by doing so, I am afraid that he will not be able to "calm Varudo's fighting spirit".

So, a head-to-head approach was adopted.

With a series of broken steps, Yu's body slid to Varudo's side, and his powerful right hand had already pressed on Valudo's forehead.

"Broken Dragon Throw!"

With a low shout, You's right hand suddenly burst into a cloud of black energy! I saw that Valudo seemed to be hit on the forehead by a huge hammer, and the whole person flew upside down, falling into the pile of debris behind the stage with a bang.

"Brother Valudo!" Immediately, several members of the Sword and Snake Gang surrounded them, and the other members surrounded the five of them with murderous violence.

"Get out!" An angry roar came from the clutter pile, and the thick arm jerked aside the members of the Sword and Snake Gang who had surrounded him, picked up a piece of wood and threw it at You.

Slap it away.

Next flew over was the wooden box.

Roundhouse kick, kick to smash.

Amid the fluttering wood chips, a huge tin bucket appeared in front of you.

Cut, are you starting to lose your mind? Thinking so, You bowed slightly, ready to dodge this attack.

"Be careful!"

It was Lloyd's voice.

Seeing that the iron bucket was violently deformed and accelerated, You was taken aback, and immediately understood the reason, and immediately staggered his body, and a chain popped out of his right hand and wrapped around the iron frame on the second floor.

But the speed of the iron bucket is too fast, and there is no reaction time for sudden acceleration, even if there is a chain to speed up, to avoid a direct blow to the head, but the left shoulder is firmly smashed by the iron bucket.

I'm afraid it is...... Cracked bones, right? Thinking so, You secretly mobilized his qi to stimulate the flow of Qiyao veins in his body, and the pain in his shoulder gradually eased.

The reason for the acceleration of the iron bucket is none other than Varudo. At the same time as throwing the iron bucket, Varudo strode up and ran up, jumping, and the crusher slammed into it, the weight of the iron bucket, Valudo's strange power and weight, the triple power was mixed together, making the speed of the iron bucket to an unbelievable speed.

Varudo, who had struck the blow, did not pursue, his massive body began to sweat with fine beads of blood, his red jacket was worn in many places, and there was dust and wood chips, and a red stream of blood flowed from his forehead, which diverted at the bridge of his nose, just dividing his face into three parts, and his golden hair was somewhat red. It looks like he's more injured than Yu.

"Hahaha, happy. It's a man. Valudo sneered, although he was severely injured, he still had a fighting spirit. I didn't expect that in addition to Waji, there were people who were stupid enough to challenge Uncle Ben, and they could actually win half a move. ”

Saying this, Varudo wiped his face as if he didn't care, and instantly turned himself into a big flower face.

"It's clear that I'm going to make up for this blow even if I win, so it looks like I'm going to have to change my opinion of you." Swim? Tatsumi said this, moving his left shoulder.

This surprised Valudo, who was confident in his strength, and in his opinion, even if he hadn't hit him directly, the black fur would have to walk with his arms hanging for two weeks. I didn't expect him to reply so quickly.

You also secretly complained, although he did not relax his guard after defeating Varudo, he was still somewhat underestimated. After all, the person who was hit by the broken dragon cast was violently attacked in the head, and he should have been dizzy for a while, but he didn't expect Varudo to survive it.

Stimulating the body's self-healing ability can only be an aid, and it hurts to be beaten, and you will die if you are killed. He could clearly feel the constant pain in his shoulder, which must be swollen. According to his self-healing ability, he should have to recuperate for two or three days.

This can be regarded as self-inflicted evil, so let's take some bone-setting medicine after I go back.

"Hmph, that's just a return gift. Do you know how to return the gift! Varudo smiled contentedly. I'm not ready to break my promise. ”

It happened five days ago, and is almost identical to the description of the Holy Book Society. It's just that the victim became a member of the Sword and Snake Gang, was beaten to a broken bone, and it is estimated that he will have to recuperate for a month. However, this time the victim did not lose consciousness, and he made it clear that he was attacked by the blue clothes, and the initial attack was a stone bullet flying from a distance.

Such an amazing coincidence......

"Isn't that right......"

Randy sighed and put the Guiding Axe on his shoulder.

By the way, now the five of them are standing in the old town square, where the two sides had fought before.

"There are members on both sides who have been attacked...... Ellie muttered, wondering what this means in particular.

"It seems, no one is lying, either." Theo said coldly, rubbing his temples constantlyβ€”he had just been in the Sword Serpent stronghold's stronghold and had been tingling in his ears by the cacophony of voices.

"Both sides took the same action at the same time...... Is it a coincidence? No...... It shouldn't be ......," Lloyd kept asking himself.

"Then, what do you think?" Lloyd asked the only one who didn't look troubled.

"Well, you can't improve if you want to rely on me for everything." As You said this, Lloyd nodded and fell into thought again.

"Well, I'm not such a heartless person. If, the testimony of both parties is correct, what does this case look like? ”

"It is suspected that people from the Sword and Serpent Gang and the Holy Book Society have attacked members of both sides."

"Then, if it were you, what would you do if I suddenly attacked and maimed your companions, family members, or something?"

"I'm probably going to get revenge on you - you mean, the prisoners are there to provoke the fighting in the Old Town?"

"Well, that's it. And then, after they fight, who will profit? ”

Listening to You and Lloyd's questions and answers, the other three looked at them silently.

"It's really a 'cop' feeling......" Randy whispered as he poked Ellie's arm.

"Well, we're supposed to be the police...... " Ellie replied in the same whisper.

After thinking about it for a long time, Lloyd still couldn't think of an answer. Sighing as if giving up, Lloyd said, "I'm sorry, I can't think of it. ”

"It's okay, I don't know." You said this, with a mischievous smile. "It's just a search idea. The next step is to investigate this carefully. ”

"Haha, what can you do unexpectedly." A hearty voice came as a woman in a khaki coat with short blue-gray hair suddenly interjected into the conversation.

"Huh? Aren't you, a reporter for Crossbell Time? Ellie immediately remembered this man. It was this man who turned the results of the first mission of the Special Mission Support Section into a foil for the guerrilla association.

"Hihi~~ See you again. It's a nice picture. Reporter Grace raised her camera and took a picture of the five people. Ah, it looks like there's a little handsome guy in there. ”

Thinking of the effect of the last photo she took, Theo complained lightly: "You are infringing on the right of portraiture." ”

Swim? Tatsumi had a praised expression.

"Haha, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I don't care~~ However, this photo may be used in a new report, don't be so stingy."

Hearing Grace say this, Ellie also retorted a little embarrassed: "You wrote us an interesting report before, are you going to write another similar article?" ”

"Ahaha, that report is also quite popular - let's not talk about this, you seem to have some interesting information, right? Sister, I'm on the way to collect materials, can you help me? In return, I invite you to dinner. ”

Reporter Grace was talking to herself, as always.

"I'm sorry, the intelligence under investigation can't be easily leaked, let alone people from the media." Lloyd seriously refused.

"Okay, as long as you can give us a decent amount of information." Swim? Tatsumi is also a serious look.

"Ahh Grace smiled happily. "Let me ask, what kind of information do you think is 'quite weighty'?"

"For example, the suspicious behavior of a large local landowner, or a rich man preparing to build a new factory."

I see...... Ellie reacted immediately when she heard what You said. The tour speculates that there are some people who are planning to buy land in the old town. If there is a life-and-death struggle of the thugs, I am afraid that quite a few residents will choose to leave the old town, right? Moreover, because of this bad move, the house price should not be too high, so it is easy to buy at a low price, and then use the land to make a profit.

Lloyd thought of this layer as well, but later than Ellie. In this regard, Ellie is a little more sensitive than Lloyd.

"Oh, what an appetite. Anyway, let's go find a restaurant and chat while eating. ”
