Chapter 1049: The Voice Behind the Scenes

St. Louis City.

At the exit of an alley, a thin and tough girl figure was standing, wrapped in a dark brown robe, with her head slightly bowed, and her face visibly covered with makeup to hide her true identity.

After standing at the exit of the alley for a few seconds, the girl quietly merged with the flow of people on the street and walked towards the center of the city.

About ten minutes later, the woman saw a large building in the center of the city, which was once the Pombo family mansion.

At this time, the appearance of the mansion has changed dramatically, and the exterior walls have been solemnly black, but now they have been painted bright white. Many of the walls and houses that had collapsed in the previous battles were also rebuilt. The portico of the main entrance was toppled down, and the emblem belonging to the Pompey family was completely missing, replaced by a strange coat of arms pattern - a golden sword and a silver spear interlaced.

From time to time, heavily armed soldiers and knights in magic costumes would enter and exit the main entrance, looking very busy, and they all wore the same badge emblems - swords and guns.

The girl looked at all this, her expression was a little complicated, her eyes were a little dazed, and her hands were slowly clenched unconsciously.

"Whoa!"

There was a sound inside the mansion, and a tall knight in magic armor rode out of the main entrance of the mansion on horseback, surrounded by a group of people.

The girl looked at the tall knight in costume, her eyes widened slightly, and she recognized that the other party was the former orthodox leader of the Pombo family's knight in costume, Gawain Nova Tranck.

At this time, Gao Wen, compared with more than four months ago, looked more majestic and became more imposing. The eyes are deep, the expression is serious, and it is not angry but mighty. A group of subordinates gathered around, all a little restrained and in awe.

The girl bit her lip and looked at Gawain, who seemed to be aware of it and turned her head sharply to look at it.

The girl was startled, her movements froze, and she couldn't help but raise her hand. In the end, it was reason that suppressed the impulse, and the tiny red flame in the palm of his hand flickered away, and he tried to make a natural movement, slowly turned around, and walked like a passerby to a nearby street.

Gawain just glanced at the girl, then withdrew his gaze, as if he didn't notice anything wrong, casually said a few words to his subordinates, and then marched in the direction of the outside of the city, and the group of subordinates quickly followed.

A few seconds later, Gawain and his party completely left the open space in front of the mansion, walked into the street to hide the girl and walked back, glanced a few times in the direction where Gawain and his party left, his expression was slightly struggling, and after thinking about it, he still followed.

......

The lips opened and closed slightly, and a cloud of wind supported the girl's feet, making the girl's movements a lot lighter and doubling her speed. quickly caught up with Gawain and his party, and hung carefully behind, trying to see what Gawain and his party were doing.

After a few minutes, the girl's face showed a puzzled expression, and he found that Gawain and his party did not go straight to the gate and out of the city as she expected, but turned around in the middle and went around to the rest of the city.

After following patiently for a few minutes, the expression on the girl's face became more and more confused, and he found that Gawain and his party did not seem to have a destination at all, but were simply going around in circles.

Are you patrolling the city?

The girl guessed, and quickly shook her head in her heart and denied, in the same place, Gawain and his party had already come for the second time, and it didn't look like a patrol at all.

So what does the other party want to do?

Wait a minute, is the number of people on the other side decreasing?

The girl suddenly realized that he had overlooked a key point, and her body tensed.

With her eyes wide open, she looked at Gawain and her party seriously, looked at it several times, and confirmed that the number of Gawain's team was indeed decreasing, because it was slowly decreasing, it was very inconspicuous, and she didn't notice it at first.

So the question is, where do the few people go? Is there a special arrangement?

Thinking of Gawain's constant efforts to take the lead in circles, the girl only felt that her whole body was enveloped by an extreme danger, and without any hesitation, she turned her head and rushed into a dead alley next to her.

Almost as soon as she entered the alley, she heard the sound of horses' hooves galloping towards the mouth of the alley.

The girl felt the heart in her chest begin to beat faster, sweat seeped out uncontrollably from under the skin, and the palms of her hands became unusually wet. She didn't look behind her, she didn't have that time, she just quickly recited the incantation, letting a strong wind envelop her body. Ran to the end of the alley, stepped on both feet, jumped high, climbed over the stone wall, and reached the alley at the other end.

The sound of horses' hooves galloping approaching did not disappear, but came from all directions, and a somewhat desperate thought flashed through the girl's mind: she was surrounded.

Bowing his head slightly, he looked at the mossy green bricks under his feet, and a drop of sweat slid down the girl's bangs, fell to the ground, and shattered.

"Whew-ho-"

The girl took a deep breath, pursed her mouth a little unconvinced, stepped on her feet again, and climbed into the house next to the alley, trying to find a gap in the encirclement to escape.

......

Run, run, run......

The girl climbed over one house after another, constantly shifting places, and fled towards the outside of the city, but she found that the number of people surrounding her was increasing, and the encirclement was one layer after another, so that she could not escape.

She suddenly realized that those who had quietly fallen out of Gawain's team before were not only staying to ambush, but also some of them were going to seek support.

"You really think of me, Gawain!"

The girl climbed over again, landed in an abandoned courtyard, and whispered something resentful.

At this time, her face was red, and sweat was dripping continuously, on the one hand, the mana consumption was extremely great, and on the other hand, the physical strength was also consumed a lot.

The girl didn't give up, took a deep breath, regained her strength, and was about to continue to climb and escape.

As a result, just as I was approaching one of the walls of the abandoned courtyard, my ears moved, and I heard the sound of breaking the air. The body flashed to the side, and the next moment there was a "bang", and a shining demonic spear blasted a hole in the brick wall and nailed it to the courtyard, and the tail of the gun trembled.

If the girl insisted on crossing just now, she would have been pierced by the spear thrown by the knight.

The girl clenched her fists, and in her ears heard dense footsteps coming from all directions, and it was clear that the enemy had pinpointed his position.

She didn't have any chance of escaping.

The girl's white teeth bit into her lower lip with some hatred, red blood oozed out, and her expression was annoyed and unwilling.

She slowly retreated into the collapsing house, ready for a final struggle. She already had the worst for the outcome, but she didn't want to accept it so simply.

As a result, as soon as she entered the room, she heard a voice behind her, and asked softly with a slight sigh, "You're too careless, aren't you?"
