Chapter 14: The Meeting of the Fugitives
"The beauty of female thieves chasing killing. ———— Thieves' Codex
When Luo Lan sneaked out of the castle, he hadn't had time to rejoice in his successful actions, and he had already tasted the bitter fruits of continuous use of his talents.
The painful feeling hit his head again, as if something was trying to get out of his head, but he couldn't break free from the comfort, so he could only move wildly in it.
Luo Lan's face turned extremely pale, and the sweat all over his body was pouring out, and he gritted his teeth to endure the pain that was more intense than ever, dodging the guards along the way.
But he knew that as long as he survived this time, his understanding and use of talent would reach a higher level, just like the "black shadow" used his own resistance to resist poison.
Such a method takes a long time to be honed, and it is by no means a momentary effect, and only people with extremely strong willpower and spirit can endure such a long test.
And it is undoubtedly very cost-effective to exchange only the price of physical pain for the power he has now obtained.
After easily bypassing the last guard and escaping from the castle, Luo Lan's heart was now filled with the feeling of pride after getting rid of all shackles.
Hey, fate!
Just as he was making a mockery of fate, what happened next was something he didn't expect.
Suddenly, his heart shook greatly.
It was like being drenched in a basin of cold water, and a deep chill instantly enveloped his whole body from head to toe.
His keen senses told him that it was not an illusion caused by a headache, but a pair of eyes watching him in the dark!
What makes Luo Lan even more unsettling is that a slightly clever enemy can weaken his gaze when he is watching others to the point that he can't sense it, and the other party just does this, even if it is said that the other party intends to let him know his existence.
The other party was so blatant, his intention was to tell Luo Lan that his every move was already under the control of the former.
Luo Lan looked around, and in the dark and dreary shadows of the castle, he couldn't find out where this person was hiding.
If you are an ordinary person, when you are suddenly hit by such a blow, your self-confidence will inevitably be greatly frustrated, resulting in the loss of your original standard of judgment of action.
But Luo Lan's mind was extremely determined, and in just a short moment, he made a bold decision, breaking away from the huge shadow of the castle and throwing himself into the wilderness.
Under normal circumstances, his approach will inevitably lead to the loss of ground.
But this time he clearly miscalculated.
After moving forward for a while, Luo Lan was shocked to find that the feeling of being watched had not disappeared, but had become more and more intense.
Those eyes hung tightly behind him like ghosts, even if they couldn't shake them off or linger.
A strong sense of crisis rose in Luo Lan's heart, tensing every nerve in him, he had never encountered such a difficult opponent.
He calmly looked around and decided to dive into the nearby woods.
Coincidentally, it was in this woods that he and Lendit reversed their identities, and what happened later.
Things came full circle and seemed to be back to square one.
Luo Lan's speed was extremely fast, and he was only a hundred meters away from being able to plunge into the forest, but the man had not yet appeared, he sneered in his heart, if the other party did not appear again, then as soon as he entered the woods, he could reverse the passive situation, and he would have no scruples at that time.
However, the moment before he entered the woods, the sight that greeted him sent chills down his spine, and his steps stopped suddenly.
In the silver moonlight, which was supposed to be romantic, there was a lifeless carriage parked in front of the woods.
It was dragged by two black horses, and if the black curtain covering the canopy was removed, the carriage was clearly shaped like the one he had used to travel with Rundit.
The bright moonlight also turned into a layer of cold frost on it, which can only be reminiscent of horror and hell.
Cold sweat flowed down Luo Lan's forehead, he felt that something was very wrong, things would not be so coincidental, since this carriage stopped here, it means that the other party is likely to know his fake identity, that is, all his plans have been exposed.
The other party had already set up a trap here, waiting for him to jump off automatically.
Luo Lan's heart sank slowly, who could come up with such a precise plan, and even calculated his idea of escaping towards the woods?
He took a deep breath, and his eyes instantly revealed a cruel killing intent, no matter who it was, he couldn't stop his steps.
He sneered and stepped forward and stood outside the carriage.
There was nothing unusual around, and it seemed that the person who was watching him secretly had great patience.
Or, he's hiding on the sidelines and waiting for the right moment to strike.
In the quiet waiting, the curtain fluctuated and was lifted.
The eye-catching scene made Luo Lan stunned.
A young girl sits quietly in the car, half of her cheeks hidden in the dark shadow, revealing the other half of her peerless appearance.
Luo Lan had vaguely seen this appearance in his memory, but he frowned, because such an outstanding woman should never be in the process of thinking, but should react at the first time.
Just when he showed a puzzled look, a sudden change occurred!
A bright light suddenly shot out from the woman's hand, and Luo Lan was about to dodge, but two more spinning blades flew out from under the carriage.
The sharp cold glow reflected the icy murderous aura.
The upper and lower roads were completely blocked, Luo Lan sneered, ignoring the killing move that rushed straight to his chest, and jumped out of thin air. Avoided the Flying Blade.
The faint light flashed across his chest, and there was no movement, as if it didn't exist in the first place.
This is a "false stab", a trick to disguise the thief to disturb the ears and eyes, and it does not constitute substantial harm.
Two sharp edges swept towards his face again, his body folded back strangely, and the two of them retreated backwards as if chasing each other, Luo Lan's footsteps spun and turned, and the edge flashed.
And the graceful figure of the girl flew through the air, and without any trace of an axe or chisel, she turned with him, and struck him in the face again.
She was like a fairy dancing on the strings, her body agile and lilt.
A dagger appeared there in time, and the "bang" blocked the move.
The girl did not continue to pursue, but quickly retreated to the side of the car under Luo Lan's stunned gaze.
It was a girl in sexy leather armor who had half of her face hidden in the shadows and a long strand of hair tied back her head.
Under the exaggerated chest line, a large white and soft waist is exposed, the round navel is very cute, and then there is the round hip curve tightly wrapped in a short skirt, and the two daggers around the waist reveal her identity.
There is only one class on the continent that uses the dagger as its primary weapon.
A female thief.
There was a fluttering sound, and a blue alien bird rested lightly on her shoulder, rubbing its little head affectionately against the girl's cheek.
Witnessing all this, Luo Lan suddenly understood everything and at the same time seemed to feel a stone blocked on his chest, extremely depressed.
It turned out that after a long time, it was this alien bird who monitored him.
The girl must have lured herself here step by step through some kind of psychic connection, so that the blue bird could see her eyes full of emotion like a human.
Luo Lan suddenly thought of something, and his eyes suddenly widened again, because the bird was clearly the blue bird that the Evil Thieves had used to communicate with him after he entered the castle.
There is no doubt about the identity of the other party, she is the mysterious contact person who delivered the message.
The girl looked at him with a smile, as if she was very amused by his sometimes nervous, sometimes relaxed state.
Luo Lan sighed and said in a deep voice, "How did you recognize me?" Now he just wants to know where his flaws are.
The girl rolled her eyes, stroked the blue bird on her shoulder, and said softly, "That's your blood, my 'blue lightning' can identify him from everyone's blood." Her voice was soft and pleasant, not at all like the way she had just shown her fierce moves.
"My blood?" Even if they were enemies of each other, Luo Lan was almost wiped out by this voice, he was secretly awe-inspiring, it seemed that the other party still had some kind of ability to affect the spirit.
"You forgot, you were slashed by Agne. The girl gestured to his arm.
Luo Lan remembered the prism he found that day, and suddenly said, "It turns out that you were spying on me that day." ”
The girl smiled slyly and said, "Yes, then who do you think?" She suddenly admired: "Senior Brother Luo Lan's camouflage technique is really good, I have to test it repeatedly to see it, no wonder the teacher always praises you." There was a hint of jealousy in her voice.
Luo Lan's heart shook violently, and he lost his voice: "What do you call me?"
The girl's beautiful eyes blinked, and her moving eyes like black gems were extraordinarily bright: "Senior Brother Luo Lan." ”
Luo Lan once again remembered the cruel training method of "that person" in his mind, his body couldn't help but tremble, he gasped heavily, and he asked painfully: "Did the teacher make you ......"
"Don't mention that old monster. The girl pursed her lips, as if she hated the name, she touched the feathers of the blue bird beside her, and chuckled, "I also sneaked out." ”
Hearing the news, Luo Lan's mood suddenly relaxed again, as if he had unloaded a burden, and then he cast a complicated look at this junior sister who had only heard of it and had never met.
The girl's side face glowed misty in the moonlight, as if it were invisible, and she smiled softly and stepped out of the shadows, her other half of her cheek immediately exposed, with a birthmark on it that destroyed all beauty.
"So it's you?" Luo Lan suddenly remembered that she had seen the maid who had been beaten by Lundit on the tower.
But when he looked closely at it from such a close distance, he found that this birthmark was very strange, because it was so completely destroyed, but it seemed that there were traces of artificial carving on it.
The girl took out a half-face mask from the prop ring, her movements were soft, and in an instant, her face was cut off by half of the miserable white mask, and the other half was a peerless appearance, her graceful figure was backed by the bright moon, and the soft curve perfectly showed the curvature of the body under the moonlight, which was a mysterious and thrilling beauty.
Her small and moist lips pursed slightly, as if revealing a hint of resentment: "We are all being hunted down by the teacher, so no matter where the senior brother goes, you have to take me with you." ”
