Chapter 42: A Name

In the moonlight, several figures swayed on the cliffs, they were clearly looking for something.

In the moonlight, you can see that the man called Nashan is not tall, but he is very strong, standing on the cliff, like a rock that merges with the surroundings.

He would have been surprised if the monk had been here, for this man was the Bohemian "Bohemian" he had seen outside the castle of Cosenza earlier.

The sudden appearance of these people surprised Alexander, who was hiding behind the boulder, and although they did not know where they came from, it was hard to believe that they had found this place by some other coincidence.

Alexander felt that Bellery's body was trembling, he was obviously worried about the safety of the secret passage, or rather for the safety of Josha, looking at the fierce light in his eyes, Alexander knew that he had already set out to kill these people.

It's just that since these people have discovered the secret passage, there is no guarantee that other people will not know.

Just as Alexander pondered whether to give up on going to the Vulture Cliff to find out the news, and immediately returned to the castle to mobilize people to seal the secret passage, the man named Nashan spoke.

"This is it," the man's voice was a little strange in tone, and he couldn't make out the accent, but his voice was deep and powerful, just like his appearance, as if it contained great power, "This is what the noble young master said. ”

"Oh, that noble young master, he has suffered a lot at your hands," another slightly taller man came over, the moonlight shone on him, the weapon in his waist shone brightly, and he turned to the other man as he spoke, "Master, are you nobles so self-righteous?" ”

The person questioned wore a bowler hat with a wide brim on his head, his face completely hidden under the hat, and when he looked up, he could see that he was wearing a hawksbill mask that only doctors and mortuaries wear.

The man's eyes behind the two lenses on his mask looked silently at the tall man, and then ignored him and looked down on the cliff.

The tall man seemed unimpressed by the masked man's indifference, and he asked the Nashan again, "What if we find that secret passage, there are only a few of us, do we just rush in?" ”

Although he knew that these people had bad intentions, when it was confirmed that they were indeed here to find the secret way, Bolery was almost unable to control himself because of his excitement.

Alexander put his hand on Bellery's slightly trembling shoulders and shook his head at him, signaling him to calm down while he stared at the men.

"There are too few of us, but there is a Bofka outside, and the people in the castle must be attracted to him." "So it's enough for us to enter the castle and cause a riot, and then Bofka knows what to do." ”

"That fool in Bofka only puts on a make-up in front of people, and if you hadn't caught that nobleman first, maybe we'd have just waited for those Kosentsa people on that vulture cliff, as they say."

As he spoke, the tall man gestured in the direction of the olecranon masked man on the other side, deliberately lowering his voice.

"But that aristocratic boy is really good, and if you hadn't done it yourself, that fool of Bofka wouldn't have been able to take it down, and he usually brags about how good his saber is," the tall man scoffed.

The conversation between the two men made Alexander's heart move, and he seemed to feel the same thing, and he saw the nervousness and uneasiness in Boleri's eyes.

The very powerful aristocratic young master knows this secret passage to the castle under the mountain, and Alexander can be sure that they are talking about Kaiser, who has just left!

Thinking that Kaisel had fallen into the hands of these people, Alexander couldn't help but think quickly in his heart.

What would happen if Keisel had fallen to the enemy?

This thought made Alexander's thoughts turn faster, but he couldn't care about it at this time.

If you can't solve these people in front of you, Kosencha will be in big trouble.

Just listening to the tall man's words, it seems that Kaisel was caught by this man named Nashan, then this person must be even more powerful than Kaiser, and thinking about Kaiser's skills that are said to be respected even by the masters of the Venetian sword school, Alexander feels that he is really in a dilemma.

Just as Alexander pondered what to do, the man in the olecrasbill mask suddenly whispered in the darkness of the night, "Here it is." ”

Everyone was taken aback, and the few people immediately gathered around the entrance to a secret passage that was covered by dense vines, carefully peeling off the obscured vines.

"The secret passage to Kosenza Castle," the masked man's voice sounds strange at night, as if it had deliberately changed its tone, "from here you can go directly to the back of the castle." ”

Speaking of this, the two lenses on his mask looked at Nashan, and deliberately accentuated his tone, "Okay, you can take whatever you want in the castle, and Zhisa Kosenza will be mine." ”

"Don't worry, we're only interested in gold jewelry, not in Gajay women." Nashan replied disappreciatively, and he looked into the dark and deep secret passage, and then began to assign men in a low voice.

Boleri's body trembled slightly, he was not afraid but angry, especially after hearing the masked man's words, he could no longer control and wanted to rush out.

Alexander pressed Pauleri's shoulders tightly, he knew that if he let these people into Kosenza, it would definitely cause a tragedy, but with the strength of his three men, it was impossible to fight against twice as many people as himself, not to mention that there were obviously several enemies among these people who seemed to be quite formidable.

"Wait until they enter the secret passage," Alexander thought to himself, and suddenly remembered that he had encountered this scene himself on the night of the bloody night in Sicily, although the mercenaries with Bochum were much better than the current situation, but the tunnels under Palermo were obviously not as steep as Cosenza. Here, even if there are more enemies than you, as long as you enter the secret passage, the narrow terrain is obviously more advantageous to your side.

Thinking so, Alexander was about to whisper his plan to Bellery, when he suddenly heard the Masked Man standing in front of the secret passage say to one of his men, "Tell our people down the mountain, and leave a few of the rest to call up." ”

"Yes, sir." One of his men answered, and turned towards the boulder where Alexander was hiding.

Alexander's hand on Bellery's shoulder relaxed.

Obviously, if they don't stop it at this time, once their people go up the mountain, then they will no longer be able to stop them.

Bellery, who was trying to break free of Alexander, suddenly stood up because of the loss of strength on his shoulder! With a shout, he threw himself out from behind the rock, and before the man who was about to tell the news could understand what was happening, his knife was already slashing into the man's neck at an angle!

The sudden change of events surprised the people on the cliff, for it was so sudden that when the man fell to the ground, they even watched as Bellery swung his sword and slashed a second time, before someone exclaimed, drew his sword and rushed towards Bellery.

Just as Bellery jumped out and slashed the man, Alexander, who had already figured out what to do, beckoned Ulliu to rush to the edge of the cliff with a few steps.

"Uliu, push with me!"

Alexander shouted as he pushed a stone down the hill.

Ulliu, who didn't know what was going on, could only follow his master to push the stone hard, and when the other few people finally found them, a large stone had been pushed by them and rolled on the ground.

A low curse burst out of the mouth of the gypsy named Nashan, and his muscular body suddenly flashed, jumping unusually nimble even among the craggy stones, and when he appeared in front of BellΓ©ri, Boleri did not even see how he made his move, and a not-so-long scimitar in Nashan's hand had already picked off the tip of the knife he had stabbed, and at the same time flung it upwards along the blade of his sword, and Boleri's weapon had already flown into the air.

The knife in Nashan's hand flicked back nimbly again, and as the heavy counterweight on the hilt slammed downward, the tall man fell to the ground like an empty scarecrow in front of him.

"Don't kill this man!"

Nashan shouted to stop the Masked Man's men as he kept rushing towards Alexander.

Nashan's eyes were filled with anger, compared to Boleri who came up and killed someone, if it wasn't for Boleri blocking his way, he would have wanted to deal with this guy who had caused him a lot of trouble first.

Seeing Nashan rushing quickly, Alexander didn't even think about the slightest attack, just thinking that this man could even be captured alive by Kaiser, Alexander knew that even if he practiced with Bochum for a few more years, he would not be the opponent of this gypsy.

"Run!"

Alexander shouted to Uliu and then pushed forward with all his might, and with the thrust of stones crashing down the hill caused by the turmoil, Alexander ran away along the cliff.

The pushed stones tumbled down the mountain, and a loud sound resounded throughout the summit in the silent night.

As the stones kept rolling down, more and more gravel was shaken down and slid down the cliff.

"Oh my God!"

Seeing the rushing Nashan, Uliwu was so frightened that he screamed and turned around and ran, the Moorish man's flexible running nature was brought into full play at this time, and his agility that was not inferior to the mountain antelope made Nashan, who was chasing behind, unexpectedly "Huh".

Alexander was embarrassed at this time, the rough and complex terrain on the mountain cliff was not suitable for running at all, and the dark night was even more dangerous.

He even thought it was a miracle that he hadn't tripped over a rockor and broken his neck for so long, but the miracle came to an end soon.

With the sudden emptiness of his feet, Alexander felt as if he had been pushed forward.

When he was in the air, he instinctively curled up with his head in his hands, but when his back fell on the rocks, the sharp stones still scratched his clothes, and his back was pierced with flesh and blood.

But before he could groan in pain, Nathan had already jumped from a rock, steadied himself by jumping among the rocks, and then immediately rushed at Alexander.

Alexander, who had just risen to his feet, immediately tripped over the rocks under his feet and fell backwards, for the pain was completely exhausted and his body struck the stones behind him, and with a cool breeze, the gypsy's scimitar flashed over his head.

"Lucky fellow," muttered Nashan, who had been sure that the knife had been dodged by Alexander's fall, but he felt that the good fortune of the Gajd had come to an end.

Nashan was surging with anger in his heart, although he didn't want to kill people, but the trouble that this Gajie man was looking for made him can't help but vent his anger by killing people.

The sneak attack had apparently failed.

So many rockfalls must have aroused the vigilance of the people of Kosencha.

If the Kosenza nobleman hadn't lied, then this secret passage was obviously easy to defend and difficult to attack, and as long as the people in the castle were vigilant, then it would be impossible for even many people to storm the castle through the secret passage.

All of this was caused by the embarrassed-looking young Gajay man in front of him.

Nashan pressed at Alexander with a murderous face, the scimitar arcing twice in his hand, the heavy counterweight on the hilt making his knife dance more calm and powerful, and once swung it, Nashan was sure that it would only take a single knife to cut off the head of the hateful Gaj.

will be killed!

When this thought crossed his mind, Alexander almost went crazy in an instant!

The fear of danger made his body burst with more strength than usual, and his movements were more agile than usual, and even when Nashan swung his scimitar a second time, he nimbly dodged the gypsy's terrifying attacks while grabbing the rocks on the ground and slamming them at the enemy.

"You've me off," Nashan picked at the stone Alexander threw at him with the tip of his sword, and although the stone flew past his chest and almost hit him because of its great force, Nashan still took a step forward and raised his sword at the same time, "It's been too long, Gaj. ”

Ulius ran so fast that he didn't even have time to call out to his master.

When he finally remembered that Alexander was still behind, the Moors couldn't help but look back, though terrified.

At this moment, in the moonlight above his head, the Moors saw a scene that made him tremble!

A scimitar that reflected a terrifying glow in the moonlight was raised high, and as the blade sliced in a perfect arc through the air, Uliu seemed to hear the whistling of the blade cutting through the air.

And the target of the scimitar was the neck of his poor master, who had fallen to the ground and had nowhere to escape.

Uliu's eyes snapped shut, he seemed to have seen his master's head fly into the sky, just like his poor master of the Great Vizier, the blood-spewing headless corpse hadn't even had time to fall.

But then the Moors did not hear the sound of Alexander's body falling to the ground, and when he opened his eyes blankly, he saw that the gypsy's scimitar was resting on Alexander's neck, which was still lying on the ground.

But to Uliu's surprise, the gypsy's face was anxious and even nervous in the moonlight.

"What did you just say?" Nashan's knife pressed tightly against Alexander's throat, and he could easily kill the young man with a slight push forward, but at this time, his hand was trembling slightly, and even the voice he made was a little out of tune because he was too excited, "Tell me what do you know?" ”

Alexander looked up and saw the gypsy with a turban around his neck, which was exposed when the stone he threw cut through the gypsy's chest.

The pattern of the turban was familiar, or rather too familiar, and Alexander knew that only one person would have such a turban by his side.

"Sophia."

Alexander hurriedly said that he knew that it was the name that would make him alive.
