Chapter 233: Collusion
"Something is happening out there." Curious, Nia wanted to walk outside. But as soon as she started moving, her arm was suddenly pulled.
Turning his head in confusion, it was the owner of the food store who grabbed him.
A little cramped to withdraw his arm, the shopkeeper looked a little embarrassed, after all, in this continent, his behavior just now can be regarded as harassment. But in a hurry, he couldn't take care of these things.
"Wait a minute, several." Hurriedly walked out of the counter, and then, under the puzzled eyes of the three Nia, the shopkeeper closed the door of the food store tightly, and carefully hung up a 'temporarily closed' sign.
After everything was done, the store breathed a sigh of relief. Turning around and glancing at the three Nia standing behind him, the shopkeeper explained with some embarrassment: "I know that since you can travel, you should have strong strength. But I still hope you don't go out now. If you're curious, look out the window. ”
"If you don't want to get into trouble, don't go out." As if a little uneasy, the store reiterated.
It seems that the people who cause chaos outside are very difficult to mess with, right? Filled with doubts, the three of them leaned towards the window.
Wiping away the frost and mist that had condensed on the window glass due to the temperature difference between the inside and outside, Nia saw what was going on the street at this time.
The street that had been bustling before became extremely deserted at this time, not only this one, but all the other shops around it were closed, and there were only a few people left on the huge street at this time, which made it easy for Nia to see the situation outside.
On the cold ground of the street, where fruit was trampled throughout, an old woman was kneeling and weeping. On the side, several big men with meaty faces were surrounding one person, but despite this, these people who looked like bandits had no intention of stepping forward.
Outside the encirclement of the crowd, a man who looked like the leader of the men was clutching his arm, half of his right arm neatly cut off. The screams that Nia had heard before came from his mouth.
The face of the man surrounded by minions was impossible for Nia to see because of the angle. After changing the window to the side, she finally saw through the group the appearance of the people who were surrounded in the middle.
But when she saw it clearly, Nia was slightly surprised. For no other reason, the person who was surrounded by minions at this time was the dark elf that Nia had noticed earlier.
At this time, the dark elf had already removed the cloak that had previously covered his face, revealing a handsome face full of heroism underneath. Silver-haired, brown-skinned, tall and well-proportioned, this is a dark elf girl of about 16 or 7 years old.
"You wait, I'll make you look good later." The minion leader laughed wildly, but the sharp pain from the severed arm made his laughter look terrifying.
"Aren't you worried about calling the guards?" Protecting the two short daggers in her hands, the dark elf girl asked vigilantly. She had already injured the leader of the gangsters through the attack before, and she thought that this would be able to scare these people back, but she didn't expect the other party to shout in a high-profile manner. Supposedly, shouldn't all gangsters be worried about being discovered by the city's inspectors?
Originally, when she was passing by here, she saw that there were a few gangsters here who were doing something and wanted to punish her, but for now, she was afraid that she had accidentally jumped into a deep pit.
But now it was too late to withdraw, and the guards in the distance had noticed the anomaly and walked towards it. Not only that, but she believed that if she left, the old woman who had smashed the fruit stall next to her would be abused by these thugs.
"What are you doing over there!" Before they could get closer, the cheers of the garrison were the first to be heard.
But upon noticing the minion leader, the faces of several of the guards immediately changed to flattering smiles.
"Master McCarthy, are you alright, what's wrong with you?" As he approached, the leading garrison immediately asked the leader of the minions flatteringly.
But unfortunately, the leader of the minions known as McCarthy apparently does not intend to give the other side. The arm that was still intact was raised, and then a loud slap was slapped in the face of the leading guard.
"Are you blind and can't see? This has cut off my arm, and you don't want to arrest her for me quickly. And, when did the Dark Elves be allowed in the city? McCarthy said viciously.
Glancing at McCarthy with some trepidation, the guard turned his gaze to the Dark Elf Maiden.
The guard secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva when he saw the dark elf girl's face, but soon, he heard a cold snort from his side. As soon as his spirit sank, the guards quickly became vicious.
"Yes, the city lord didn't say that the dark elves could enter the city, and if you are accused of murder, I will arrest you now. You'd better not resist, or your wanted warrants will be issued to the various cities of Huttonmar the next day. ”
He glanced at the guards behind him, and the guards immediately gathered around the Dark Elf Girl. The minions proudly made way for the guards. Obviously, they've done these things more than once.
The Dark Elf Maiden was taken away by the guards. The captain of the guard squad needed to accompany the minion leader to a nearby church for treatment, and now that his arm had just been cut off, there was still a chance to connect it if it was a senior priest. And the rest of the minions naturally followed behind the minion leader.
In just a few minutes, the streets were filled with only the old woman who had been completely stunned when the Dark Elf Girl had been taken away.
"I'll go out and have a look, I'm a little concerned about that dark elf." Watching the crowd on the street out of sight, Nia said.
"Not yet, those people may come back." Hearing Nia's thoughts, the food store owner hurriedly dissuaded her.
"Don't worry, I'm just sneaking over to take a look, and there won't be a problem......"
Five minutes later, Nia looked down from the roof of a house. Below, the Dark Elf girl was being led in one direction by the guards, and everywhere she passed, all the pedestrians on the road dodged in all directions.
In fact, if it weren't for the food store owner, Nia would have been there minutes in advance. But fortunately, the guards did not go far, and she quickly found her.
At this time, the captain of the garrison squad had been dragged away by the minion leader and taken to the direction of the temple, and only a group of guards were left in charge of escorting the dark elf girl.
Nia was hesitant to save the Dark Elf girl. It's not just because of the food store owner's mouth, those people may have their own backstage that they can't resist. And because - that dark elf girl has the ability to get out of trouble.
Under Nia's detection, the strength of the guards is about the seventh level of the first order on average, even the highest one, the strength is only the ninth level of the first order, and the strength of the dark elf girl is the eighth level of the second order, which is the same level as the current Nia. In other words, as long as the Dark Elf girl wanted to leave, even if Nia didn't make a move, the guards would be helpless against her.
Sure enough, after following the garrison for two streets, the Dark Elf Maiden began to act.
As if on the verge of tripping, the Dark Elf girl suddenly lunged forward for a short distance, but before she could stabilize her figure, she had already taken the short dagger that belonged to her from the guard. With the flipping of her hands, the rope that bound her arms was easily cut by her at a very tricky angle.
Without giving the guards time to react, the Dark Elf Maiden disappeared into the distance in a few leaps.
Far away, 'I'll be back.'" 'From afar.
