Chapter 259: Locking up the man in black
The sound of decapitation in the square clicked, and on the other side, the mercenary guild and the thieves guild leader gathered together to discuss the one thing that had just been done.
The thin man with a thief's eyebrows said, "Is it really okay for us to do this?" There was some fear and fear between his eyebrows.
The strong man with knotted muscles said: "Why are you still so timid, let me ask you, what do we do?" ”
"Mercenaries and thieves, of course."
"And what did we just do?"
"Sell the information of those four people."
"So if a person pays enough money to buy information from the Mercenary Guild and the Thieves' Guild, is there anything wrong with us?"
"There's nothing wrong with that, but ......."
"Hmph, no, but, we just did our job, and those information are not classified information that cannot be sold, even the king can't blame us."
The thin man with thief eyebrows and rat eyes stared blankly ahead, and after a moment, the strong man shook his head and patted the thin man's shoulder, comforting:
"Don't think about it so much, we're just doing our job again, if those four people really die, it can only be said that those four people are unlucky, but they provoked Heimi's black-clothed Grim Reaper, it's just looking for death."
In the square, the clicking sound faded, and the hundreds of executioners were not slow, but they killed hundreds of heads in a few minutes.
"My lord, please verify."
"Well, I've watched the whole decapitation."
Rhodes stepped forward, glanced around, and shouted:
"This official is ordered by the king to maintain law and order in the royal capital, and will never allow a bandit to do evil."
After saying something specious, and really couldn't think of how to say it, Rod turned and left the square, and returned to the city guard office in the onlookers.
At this time, there are several reporters in the city guard, one of whom is a blonde beauty who has been in contact with Rhodes many times, and Simone is answering the reporters' questions.
Rhodes directly cast his illusion and quietly walked into the office, where Daphne and Marianne were lying on the sofa on one side, showing their shapes and sitting on the sofa.
"Hala, Hala, how do you feel like you're lazy and waste."
Rod shook his head and stretched: "I just know that there is someone who is worried about his life, and my psychology is a little depressed." ”
Rod glanced at the intelligence core to deduce the model of meeting the enemy, and said thoughtfully: "The intelligence has been confirmed to be sent, we should take the initiative, according to the information of the black-clothed Grim Reaper, the other party always likes to act when the target thinks it is safe, we may be able to create such an opportunity." ”
Click!
Simone opened the door and walked in from the outside, and said to Rhodes with a smile:
"It just so happens that a herald came over and sent an order just now, saying that it was a warm-up before the military exercise, so that we can properly show some abilities."
"What's going on?"
Rhodes had a strange demerit report, and found that it suggested that they lead the students of the four major academies as students and show the demeanor of a new generation in front of all mankind.
It is a suggestion, but in fact, there is a kind of king who will not force you to show your ability, but I hope that you can take the initiative to show your ability, and if something happens, I also hope that you can take the initiative to stand up and bear the consequences.
"Scapegoat." Marianne's eyes were filled with contempt.
In fact, this is the first time that such a military exercise has happened, and the king does not have much psychological bottom, hoping to observe the reactions of all parties under the pretext of showing the capabilities of the new generation, so as to make final adjustments.
If the reaction is not good, this matter will only involve a few of them who take the lead, and everything has nothing to do with the king, and when the time comes, adjust the military exercise strategy in time, so that the king will not lose face.
"Harahara, this feeling ......." Daphne's eyes flashed with an inexplicable dangerous gaze, showing her little tiger teeth, like a little tiger who chose to eat people.
Rod was also a little unhappy in his heart, is this a habit of using himself as a scapegoat?
He also has the relationship between Professor Poundel, Alyssa, Roxanne and others, if the others will not directly issue the military order--if it is not done, die.
Rod threw the report on the table with some dissatisfaction, once or twice, and Rod was inevitably a little angry even if he had a good temper.
It's just that despite this, he can't really pick and choose, otherwise Professor Poindel will not be able to spare him first.
After thinking about it for a long time, Rod's heart moved slightly.
"Simone, you go and tell the herald that I can take over this rehearsal, but I can't take it as a student, I have been exposed by reporters several times, my appearance has been exposed, and now showing my ability as a student will only become someone else's mouth."
Simone nodded, turned to leave, and after a moment, when she returned, Simone hugged another document with an ugly face.
This document says that the four of them should show their abilities appropriately, just like when escorting foreign guests out of the city, and there is no need to be rigid about identity, you can freeze your own time and show your abilities, and judging from the ink and smell, it is obvious that it was written at the same time as the previous one.
"Huh!"
Rod laughed angrily, nodded slightly, and waved the report.
"Only this one? Anything else? ”
Simone shook her head affirmatively: "No, there are only these two documents in total, and I read the other party's mind." ”
"Looks like it has to be done."
"Harala, what a nasty feeling."
"Watching animals."
The four of them walked out of the office and announced that they would hold a press conference to show their combat ability in the name of better suppressing bandits, and the time would be early tomorrow morning.
Considering the time required to adjust the exercise, the only way to do this is to complete the task as soon as possible - regardless of the psychological dissatisfaction, Rhodes will not bring emotions into the mission.
Because this happens to be a good opportunity, it would be great if we could lure the black Grim Reaper out.
Early the next morning, the reporters surrounded the gate of the city guardhouse, and the abilities of the four of Rhodes had indeed spread among the reporters, and the reporters with a keen sense of smell also realized the unusual behind this incident.
Simone was cleared by the battle puppet after dealing with the reporters, and the four of Rhodes rode from the avenue to the outside of the city, Rhodes glanced at the model of the intelligence core to meet the enemy, and looked around tightly.
Rhodes was displaying a transparent panel in front of him, which was invisible to others, showing a model of the black-clad Grim Reaper, and it was likely that he would kill the target in a public spot like today.
Hum!
I'm waiting for you to show up.
Rod secretly took out the token, raised his hand and quietly messaged, telling Simone and the three to get ready.
The three of them did not look out of the ordinary, sitting on their horses and being photographed by reporters, smiling and turning their heads around, seemingly greeting onlookers, but in fact they were using their special energy to find the black-clothed Grim Reaper.
However, until outside the city, the black-clothed Grim Reaper did not appear.
It wasn't until reporters swarmed around him that Rod sighed, and it was really not so easy to take the bait.
"Lord Rhodes, can we know what kind of abilities you are going to show today?"
"Lord Rhodes, are you doing today as a rehearsal for a military exercise?"
Rod pressed his hand, motioned for one by one, and then left the place with Daphne and Marianne, Simone took the initiative to step forward and stop the reporter, and quickly leveled the reporter with Rode's amazed words.
"It's a show of ability, but it doesn't seem to be ready."
Simone smiled mysteriously.
"It's part of what we're capable of, and I'm looking forward to it."
For a moment, in front of everyone's eyes, Rhodes glanced indifferently and summoned five thousand puppets casually.
Five thousand laser-like blue lights shot out from the palms of the people on all sides, and turned into puppets on the ground in exclamation, causing the faint to collapse to the ground in fright.
After the silence, there was a sudden burst of earth-shattering cheers.
It seemed easier than expected, and the thought had just come to him, and a feeling of extreme danger instantly filled Rhodes's mind.
As soon as I heard the warning of the intellectual core in my ears, I felt that my body was torn.
The swirling blazing flames suddenly ignited from all around, sweeping Simone and the three into flames together, vowing to burn the four to ashes, and out of the corner of his eye, Rhodes saw only a figure covered in a black cloak in the far distance.
"The wisdom core, consume 100% energy, completely lock the black-clothed Grim Reaper, and definitely can't let him escape."
