The huge square gate is emitting a faint milky white light, leaving a frame of light in the dark night, which is very conspicuous.

The gate is just around the corner!

Seeing this, Bevis breathed a long sigh of relief in his heart.

The father is dead, trying to delay the two of them, but the man has finally fulfilled his last wish ———— let the two children escape from the Mad Dog Gang.

Now, the end of the escape has arrived.

The way of life has come, the pressure in Bevis heart suddenly relaxed, and the fear in his heart is also overwhelmed by grief.

The boy silently wiped his tears with his sleeve.

Then he turned to look at his sister.

Shikou's face still had that incomprehensible coldness and determination, she looked cute with a little baby fat, and the cold gray eyes did not make people feel frightened, but pity.

Although the younger sister looks expressionless.

But as an older brother, Bevis still comforted her: "Don't worry, Shikou, we are going to be safe, the gate has arrived!" ”

Hearing this, Shikou looked at his brother.

"You're safe, brother, let me go."

Bevis, who was full of excitement, was stunned when he heard his sister's words.

"Why?"

Bevis was puzzled.

Shi Kou said lightly in his own unique tone: "Because this is fate, brother! ………… Let me go, brother! Sticking to me will only make things worse. ”

"What the hell is this, I'm my brother, you have to listen to me!" Without hesitation, Bevis grabbed his sister's hand.

Running with all his strength towards the gate dozens of meters away.

Shikou, who was only eight or nine years old, had to be dragged by him and ran towards the gate.

"Destiny...... Is it really something that can't be changed? The firmness and coldness on Shikou's face were even worse, but in the girl's eyes, a touch of sadness flashed.

With a distance of tens of meters, even a small child can cross it in only six or seven seconds.

Suddenly!

Bevis felt like he had crossed an invisible dividing line.

The strange air of the ghetto, foul-smelling, muddy smell suddenly vanished, replaced by fresh air with a hint of fruity scent.

- The siblings stepped over the air shield placed near the gate of the wall.

Also, it was clear that the two had triggered some kind of magic alarm............ The guards on duty spotted them immediately.

"Stop! Outside traffic is not allowed here! ”

After halting, Bevis responded to, only to find seven or eight soldiers on two sides around the gate, and between them appeared to be a chessboard............ It seems that the late night duty is boring, and the soldiers have to find something to do.

Although these guys seem to be unprofessional, Bevis is very happy in his heart.

In order to maintain order among these people, the guards on duty did not show any benevolence and righteousness when the strong laborers of the slums went out to sell their coolies during the day, but they did not tolerate theft and robbery.

The performance can be called cold and selfless.

Moreover, if you can be a soldier, it means that you are all powerful fighters (less than entry-level strength, you can't even be a soldier at all............ Except for scout classes that are responsible for investigations), which are not at all comparable to those of the Mad Dog Gang.

Despite being the overlord of the ghetto.

But the number of official fighters in the Mad Dog Gang may not be as large as the soldiers in front of them............ As long as you reach the entry level, you can become a leader in the gang!

- Just like that Fergus!

Thinking of killing his father's enemy, Bevis gritted his teeth for a while.

However, the soldier who had just stopped the brother and sister had already left the ranks of the spectators and walked towards the two. Bevis had no choice but to control his emotions and make his expression look as pitiful as possible.

Due to the existence of high-temperature furnaces powered by magic, as well as the existence of dwarves, gnomes, and other races that are skilled in prospecting and mining.

The steel production of the Platinum Empire is definitely not low.

In addition, as full-fledged combat officers, the soldiers are at least 50 or more strong, and they are fully capable of fighting with nearly 100 kilograms of full-body heavy armor.

In addition, around the various cities of the empire, there are basically dwarven tribes.

The equipment manufacturing capacity can be described as strong.

Therefore, for the soldiers of the Platinum Empire, full-body steel plate armor is standard, and there is far more armor than a person, and there is no pressure to have three sets for a soldier (what Sharpsburg is lacking now is consumables such as arrows and javelins).

This was the case with the soldier who was walking towards the brother and sister.

He was now wearing full-body plate armor, and his whole body was covered in silver metal except for his head and joints.

There is a broadsword on his waist, and a rune chain crossbow hangs from his waist on the other side (relying on the power of runes to drive machinery, it can automatically load arrows and wind arrows from the arrow box, which is a type of rune machinery).

Due to its power and ability to threaten even ordinary people in the official war, this crossbow is a controlled product that can only be used by the military.

After seeing the two stop.

The soldier shook his head and walked over, his face was red and drunk, and he said, "It's actually two little ghosts, it's so late, what are you doing here?" Don't know what is off-limit? Hurry up and go home to find your mother to feed, hahaha!! ”

The smell of wine from his big face and sausage mouth made Bevis very uncomfortable, but he had to endure it.

The young man said in a low voice: "My lord, we don't want to disobey the order, we just ......"

"Just what? If you have something to say, if you have a fart, let it go! The soldier looked back impatiently, visibly attentive to the game, and as he spoke, he reached out and patted Bevis on the face.

Bevis hastened to answer.

"My sister and I are being hunted by the Mad Dog Gang, please be good, my lord, just let us stay here at the gate, we will not go out!"

But......

Something happened that Bevis never expected.

"Sister, Mad Dogs... Hunt? ”

When the soldier heard his words, he looked down at the petite Shiko. And when the soldier with a big cake face and a sausage mouth saw Shikou, his drunken eyes suddenly lit up. Quickly turned his head and shouted:

"Captain, big discovery, Captain, come and have a look!"

As he spoke, he directly reached out and grabbed the brother and sister, and lifted them to the front of the chessboard one by one.

What he called the captain was a horse-faced soldier, who looked quite young and not ugly, and even, because of this long, quite majestic horse face, he also had a 'dignified righteousness'.

"What's wrong? Aren't they just two little ghosts, I've been listening. ”

Originally, this captain didn't care.

But when he turned his head and saw Shikou, his face was stunned for a moment.

"This little girl ......"

At this time, the soldier next to him suddenly spoke: "Captain, isn't this the little girl from the Mad Dog Gang's Anglie who offered a reward of one hundred gold dragons?" It ran into our hands, and it was a windfall, Captain. ”

"Haha! yes, it's really this little girl...... This afternoon, the magic image sent by the wild dogs looked like this. ”

"Turns out that Anglie guy likes this type of ...... No wonder I'm never close to women! Hahahaha! ”

Hearing this, the other soldiers also burst into laughter.

The flatbread-faced soldier was also smiling.

"Captain, then I'll take this chick to Anglie to get the money now!"

"Huh?!"

The horse-faced captain said with a righteous face: "Jack! As a soldier of the Knights of the Guard, how can you leave your post without permission? Come, give me this little girl, it's almost the day of Anglie to give us an offering, I'll go now!" ”

"Uh......"

The big-bread-faced soldier wants to cry without tears, a hundred golden dragons! Not counting the gray income provided by gangsters and thieves' guilds, it is enough for him to pay for five months.

But he didn't dare to offend the captain either.

As a Dragonborn Knight, the captain is from a Dragonborn family, and his background and strength are far superior to him, an ordinary orphan adopted by the Knights.

Therefore, he had no choice but to hand over Shikou to the captain with a sad face.

"Don't look like that, Jack," Captain Horseface said, patting Jack on the shoulder, "Haven't you always wanted to spend the night with Lina, the first-class dancer of Scarlet Heaven?" I'll grant you that tomorrow. ”

Hearing this, Jack's heart felt a lot better.

Seeing that the others were starting to make noise again, the horse-faced captain had no choice but to say, "The others, let's go tomorrow too...... But it's just ordinary girls! ”

Only then did he pacify his subordinates.

"What are you going to do? Give me back the poet! Bevis shouted.

After the pie-faced soldier Jack lifted them up, his sister Shiko suddenly covered Bevis's mouth and didn't let him speak, and Bevis couldn't resist, so he had to watch the captain of the soldier carry Shiko away.

Bevis struggled desperately, but couldn't break free no matter what.

The young man really didn't expect that these guards, who were selfless, fair and ruthless in the face of everyone during the day, would secretly collude with the gangsters when the night came, without caring about the public eye.

Seeing the young man resisting, Shi Kou Chong in the distance looked at her brother and shook her head, signaling him not to resist and struggle.

But how could Bevis do that.

His father is gone, and his sister is already his only relative, how can he give up.

Seeing that the horse-faced figure was approaching the limit of vision, Bevis felt a cross in his heart, and opened his mouth to bite the hand of Jack with the big pie face. Although the boy felt like he was biting a stone, his teeth ached.

And never let go.

Bevis didn't feel wrong, when he took the first bite, Jack, who was an earth elemental knight, let out a cry of pain, and then a reflex-like fighting spirit exploded, and his epidermis turned into rock skin under the blessing of earth elemental energy.

He struggled to get Bevis off, and with a wave of his hand, he sent Bevis flying several meters.

Although it was a casual blow, Jack's tenacity and athletic attributes were definitely above a hundred, and Bevis, who was definitely less than fifteen strong, couldn't resist at all, and all four of his front teeth were knocked out.

The head is also dizzy (the effect of being punched in the mouth by a boxer).

"Little bunny, dare to bite me!" Jack grabs Bevis and throws him against the wall, causing the teenager to spit blood again.
