Chapter Twenty-Six: The Toughness of the Night's Watch I
After learning of the Black Rock Fort, Captain Ford walked into the streets of Baal City in groups with thirty-two official night watchmen stationed at the Black Rock Fort, wearing black cloaks on their shoulders, black swords on their waists, and well-made inlaid armor.
Among them, half of the night watchmen were still carrying war bows and two bags full of black feather arrows hanging from their waists.
Some time ago, Bauer, who had received a warning from the night watchman of Black Rock Castle, when he heard his henchman, he directly pushed the door in and reported the above information, and the little Bauer, who was held in the moist little mouth by the "maid" under the table, was directly soft.
Little Bauer, who can't take care of himself anymore, will he be scared of anything wrong with this, and he can't take care of the face of a dignified knight as the captain of the garrison. Knowing that even if he gathered a total of more than 1,000 garrison troops, it would not be enough to have forty-two red bronze rank combat forces in the Quirding area, as well as a large number of night watchmen with high-level black iron combat power, Bauer, who eagerly reported the news to the door, from time to time looked under the red tablecloth of the wide desk in front of him, and the Mark who showed a rounded hip profile asked, "Are they coming towards us?" ”
"Not really, sir. Captain Ford, who is leading them in the direction of the North Pier of the city......"
When I heard Mark's answer, I was greatly relieved in my heart. But in terms of expression, it was Bauer, who pulled down his face, that directly interrupted: "Damn! So what are you doing in such a hurry?! I don't know if yesterday, I bought a new maid at the "maid market"?! Or do you want to see my jokes?! ”
"How, my lord, how dare I do that...... Mainly because, just now the security team had a problem at the docks, and Henry sent someone to inform us, worried about what kind of hot hand we encountered. As usual, I gathered a squadron of men and horses and went with them...... But just now, I got the news that the "private matter" that happened in the docklands involved a night watch reserve of Black Rock Fort. And this night watchman reserve, but last night, kneeling in front of the tree of divine words and taking an oath, officially became a night watchman. ”
Listening to his long-time confidant, Mark's intermittent explanation, he could be regarded as Bauer, who roughly understood what had happened, and almost picked up from the table and chair in anger, but apparently in this short moment, he realized that he was still bare-assed, just blushing and roaring: "Damn! Don't you know that the Night's Watch has been fighting against the prisoners in the city's prisons and the guys who have a stake in the matter?! In terms of high-end combat power, these night watchmen are almost the same as the power held by the powerful in the entire Bal City, at this time, is it just a justifiable excuse?! ”
"And you, since because of Henry's gang, it is nothing more than a cover for the "private affairs" of the gangsters in the city to bully men and women, and you sent a squadron when you kicked the iron plate?! A garrison of more than 200 people in full uniform?! ”
Under Bauer's roar, he was speechless for a while, and Mark, who had been scolding Henry in his heart for his behavior of pit himself, which had a good relationship in the past, could only argue in a low voice: "However, at that time, I didn't know that Henry was kicking the iron plate in "private matters". ”
And even if he is lascivious on weekdays, but Bauer, who also has the strength of the bronze class in this way, obviously heard this argument from his confidant, Mark.
For a while, Bauer, who felt even more angry, grabbed the heavy metal decoration on the desk in front of him and slammed it in the direction where Mark was standing.
In a muffled sound, Mark, who was directly hit in the head by the corner of three or four kilograms of metal ornaments, kept his eyes black and passed out.
Looking at Mark who fell to the ground and fainted, the blood flowing from his forehead slowly dyed the expensive carpet on the floor that he bought in the auction house for 120 gold in order to match his aristocratic (sir) status.
In the middle of the sound, under the service of the naked and beautiful "maid", the neatly dressed Bauer was in the middle of the room, shouting loudly: "Where are the people?!" ”
As the two guards in metal armor pushed the door and walked in, without taking a second look, after bearing their own angry kick on the side, the lumbar vertebrae did not know where to hit, and at this time the whole person was showing a strange angle, and Bauer, who was an unappetizing guy, just calmly opened his mouth and ordered: "Throw this damn pig to the morgue for the time being." At night he was tied with a stone and thrown into the Attali River to feed the fish. ”
The two guards, who looked a little ugly but did not say a word, carried Mark's body out of the room. Bauer, who was obviously very satisfied with this, said to the "maid" who had been hiding behind his desk during the period, with only one head exposed: "I hope you can clean the blood stains on this carpet before I come back." If, let me see a hint of variegation, I think the pigs of the Black Mine will be more suitable for you. ”
The "maid" who didn't pay attention to his own words, and his little face was pale with fright. Knowing that he would rush to the docks to explain to the night watchman that he would definitely be burdened by the squadron sent by Mark, Bauer hurried out of the room.
………………
At the same time, Henry and the others, who were already halfway with the full-service armed and more than 200 garrison teams sent by Mark, rushed to the dock area, the alley in front of the small courtyard rented by Ye Qi.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd around him, he instructed Jack to lead people to set up a cordon in front of the people.
After signaling the accompanying garrison to send someone to block the front and rear exits of the alley in front of him. In the midst of the hugs of his subordinates, Henry, who slowly took a few steps forward, stood at the mouth of the alley, looking at the alley, the two subordinates who had fallen in the uniform white clothes of the security team, and he couldn't help frowning at this, and shouted loudly to the small courtyard where Ye Qi and the others were: "Listen, the people inside, I am Henry, the deputy captain of the security team of Bal City." You now have two options, first, you lay down your arms, come out on your own, and go back to the security headquarters with us to explain the situation. Second, we'll rush in and kill you on the spot! ”
"Alright, I'll give you ten breaths of time to think about it."
Henry, who had finished shouting, motioned for the surrounding garrisons to prepare.
And stepping on a large water tank in the small courtyard, poked out half of his head from behind the wall, looked at the dozens of garrisons in cowhide armor in the distance, and at the signal of Henry, took out the longbow behind his back, and took out four or five feather arrows from the quiver on his waist, and inserted them on the ground in front of him according to the arrows facing down, so that he could take arrows and bow more quickly in the next shooting process, and understand that he and others would not show up, and after ten breaths, Jonathan, who would definitely be the first to be hit by a rain of arrows in this small courtyard, turned around and said to Ye Qi, one of the three people behind him: "It seems that the brothers over there in Black Rock Fort have been delayed by something, let's go out first." ”
Without waiting for Ye Qi to speak, Wang Anyi on the side proposed like this: "Actually, we can leave through the back door......"
Seeing that he didn't answer Wang Anyi's proposal, but jumped off the big water tank, and directly chose to walk towards the back of Jonathan, who was walking towards the gate of the small courtyard, Ye Qi explained more to the two people who were puzzled on the side: "Don't worry, these people outside the courtyard don't dare to do anything to us." After that, it was to keep up with the former.
The next facts are just as Ye Qi said.
After all, no matter which world it is, there is a general rule: that is, strength is supreme, and the strong are respected.
And for the security forces and garrisons of Bal City, the night watchmen of Black Rock Fort are exactly the ones they can't provoke.
"Damn, how are two night watchmen ......"
The above obviously faced Ye Qi and Jonathan, who were the first to come out of the courtyard, looking at the formal night watchman outfit on the former, they all subconsciously aimed the weapons in their hands at the former and the members of the garrison at the first time, and the common thoughts in their minds at this time.
They looked at each other, and they all fixed their eyes on Henry, who was the supreme commander of this operation, and they also didn't expect that there would be two official night watchmen in the small courtyard, and they couldn't help but be a little at a loss.
After all, this is at least the strength of the Black Iron Class, and the creatures of darkness and chaos have been fighting on the front line for many years. Instead of the reserves, those who, with the exception of a few children of the official night watch, were often prisoners pulled from prisons everywhere!
If it is said that there are two night watchman reserves who walked out of this small courtyard, Henry and the others, who obviously will not take them seriously, will definitely come forward to arrest them without hesitation, or kill them on the spot when they encounter resistance.
However, if it is an official night watchman who can represent the power of the local night watchman every time he goes out, then he has to make them feel the heat of the matter.
After all, it was no joke that the number of official Night's Watch and Rangers in the entire Quelding region with the power of the Bronze Rank was almost completely comparable to the power of the powerful in the entire city of Baal.
Although, the night watchmen have always kept the oath they took by kneeling before the Tree of Divine Words, not to intervene in any human kingdom, in the struggle for power between the worlds.
However, that does not mean that the Night's Watch are lambs to be slaughtered.
In fact, the night watchmen who have been fighting dark and chaotic creatures all year round have certain advantages over other professions not only in terms of combat power and skills of the same class, but also are often extremely united!
However, even so, at this time, he obviously can't let these two night watchmen leave, right?
Therefore, Henry, who was inevitably a little hesitant in his heart, fell into a dilemma.
However, soon, as a tall middle-aged man stretched out his hand to block the crowd in front of him and passed through the cordon set up by the security guards, the situation was reversed again!
I saw this middle-aged man who walked out of the crowd of onlookers, shouting like this: "When will the night watchman kill people in the street and be pardoned like the nobles?" What are you still hesitating about?! Go up and grab these two night watchmen for me! ”
