Chapter 36: The Aftermath (Part II)

Seeing the figure with long white hair and a black outfit, all the Noxus soldiers knelt down on one knee:

"Your Excellency!"

Ignoring them, Svein slowly walked over to Old Layton, lifted him up from the ground, and patted him with dust.

"Am I asking you to hunt down fugitives in town, not to bully the residents, or are you going to tell me that this old man is the same person as the one in the painting? I'm not old enough to get dizzy. ”

"No, my lord, someone has reported to us that he has an extraordinary relationship with that kid, and we are planning to take him back for interrogation to see where that kid is hiding." The leader knelt down and reported respectfully.

"Oh? Is that so? Svein turned to look at Old Layton.

At the moment when the other party's eyes looked at him, Old Layton seemed to feel that he was facing the whole hell, and when he came back to his senses, he still shook his head:

"I just explained to these military masters, I just happened to meet the guy you were looking for at the Yongle Festival, and I didn't know him before, you have to believe me."

"Okay, I know, there's no need to be so polite to them, soldiers are just like you before they don't wear military uniforms, they are ordinary people, and every country is made up of all kinds of people." Then he walked up to the group of soldiers, "I really can't imagine that our military discipline has deteriorated to such an extent, go back and get fifty sticks for yourselves." ”

"But my lord," the leading soldier ......, pointing to old Layton, as if trying to explain something.

"Do you want me to hand you over to General Darius?"

The soldier shuddered, and then obediently left the courtyard of old Leiden with the men.

After apologizing to Old Layton, Svein also slowly walked out of the yard.

"Why do you do this, I don't think our fighters have done anything wrong." The man in black walked out of the alley by the side of the road.

"Do you really think that the tyrannical rule will allow Noxtola (the portal to your-Knox) to spread to every corner of the world, Guslan? The ferocity against them will only awaken their hatred and usher in more ferocious revenge. ”

Guslan snorted disdainfully:

"Then do you really believe the old man's words?"

"Of course I don't believe it, and I'm even sure that Layton is lying." Svein said lightly.

"Then why are you ......?"

"I've just received the information, the person we're looking for has broken through, and it's temporary, I don't think they'll know where that guy is hiding, and I've already sent someone to pursue it."

"But isn't it a bit careless to let them go like this!" Guslan is still unhappy with the way Svein does things.

Svein waved his hand, didn't answer Guslan's question, and continued to walk forward. At the same time, a crow flew over his shoulder into the yard of the old Leyton's house.

……

In the depths of the dense forest, Ling Tianmao was still running forward, the thorny bushes around him kept scratching his clothes, and occasionally there were stones or tree roots protruding from the ground to hinder his movements, but he didn't dare to stop for a moment.

Even though his lungs were tingling when he breathed, and even though his legs seemed to be filled with lead, the shouts and footsteps behind him constantly reminded him that if he stopped at this time, it would certainly not be a good end for him.

Thanks to the complex terrain of this forest, otherwise he would not have been able to run far at his speed and would have been captured back to the city by the army behind. And even so, the distance between them was constantly shrinking, and several times he had seen the figure of the pursuer behind him.

"Hey, boy, I always feel a sense of familiarity with this short sword in your hand."

"What do you say?" Ling Tianmao couldn't figure out what Dahl meant.

"I mean, this weapon feels familiar to me, but I'm pretty sure I haven't seen it, it doesn't seem to be an ordinary weapon."

"I'll talk about that later, I'll ...... Call...... It's almost dying......" Ling Tianmao felt that his brain was extremely deprived of oxygen, and his eyes turned black for a while.

Just when Ling Tianmao felt that he couldn't run, the woods suddenly disappeared in front of him, replaced by an abyss, but fortunately, there was a suspension bridge on both sides of the cliff that looked like a waki.

Ling Tianmao's heart was horizontal, and he raised his feet and walked towards the suspension bridge. Most of the wooden planks of the suspension bridge have been eroded by the wind and rain, and the ropes around them are also constantly making "babbling" sounds, Ling Tianmao almost fell down several times, and when he finally reached the opposite side of the cliff, the pursuers behind also followed.

Due to the large number of pursuers, there was no way to walk on the drawbridge at the same time, and the leading "raven" members took the lead in sending two people towards the opposite side.

Ling Tianmao immediately made a decision, pulled out the short sword that Ye Fanxin had left for him from his waist, and cut the rope of the suspension bridge on his side, and the two Noxian soldiers who were walking to the center fell down screaming.

And the face of the "raven" member on the other side under the mask can already be gloomy and dripping water, and he is finally about to catch up with the target, there is such a cliff here, does God want to help him escape?

"Shoot me the arrows!" The soldiers behind him took out the longbow on his back one after another, and as the full bowstring was released, sharp arrows flew towards Ling Tianmao.

Come with me, the only thing I can deal with is this, Ling Tianmao was secretly happy in his heart, feeling the changes in the elemental particles around him. Just as the arrows were about to hit his body, a wall of wind nearly two people high appeared in front of Ling Tianmao, and all the arrows were blocked.

"Damn it!" The man in black hammered his thigh in frustration, he didn't expect the other party to have this hand, watching Ling Tianmao's figure fade away, the man in black pulled out his dagger and stabbed it into his stomach under the stunned gaze of the soldiers around him. For the members of their "raven", the only fate that does not complete the task is death.

Ling Tianmao ran to the back of a big tree out of breath and sat down against the back of the tree, panting for breath.

"Dahl, this can't be done, I can't stand it every time we run away, it's only been a few days, I've already run two or three times, and it's not like I can run away every time. I'm sure I'll get a perfect score in PE when I go back. ”

"Sports?"

"Well, it's just to test us running, long jump, high jump."

"You still have such a boring test," Dahl's tone was full of contempt, "but what you said also makes sense, you feel ashamed to stay in your body all the time, you have to think of a way, not to be able to fight all over the world, at least you can live a few tricks with others." ”

"Have you figured out a way to do that?"

"How can you think so well, you yourself know that you are now zero-based, and it is impossible to reach that woman or me in a short period of time. However, since you can feel the power of the elements, you have the opportunity to have your own unique way of attacking, but I haven't thought of it yet, and if I think of it, I will definitely tell you as soon as possible. By the way, you must keep that sword, I always think that thing is not ordinary. ”

"Then wait for your good news" Ling Tianmao looked at the short sword that Ye Fanxin gave him again, but he really couldn't see anything special about this sword, "Then the next question, where are we now!" Only then did Ling Tianmao realize that after a rush just now, he had lost his way.
