Chapter 36: The Pursuit

Harold's axe struck the black-robed man's shoulder firmly, and blood splattered out, but the axe could not go any deeper.

Originally, Harold was able to remove his opponent's shoulder with a single blow from the axe, but this time he only cut through the opponent's epidermis. The downward momentum of the axe is stopped as if it had struck a hard object.

Harold also had a back move, and the dagger he was holding behind him immediately stabbed into the abdomen of the black-robed man, but the latter stretched out his left hand and blocked the tip of the dagger with the back of his hand.

Harold's pupils shrank, and he immediately understood that the other party was using some means to harden the skin, but he didn't expect that in just a moment, it could harden to the extent that he couldn't cut it off.

Harold felt that something was wrong, and he jumped back high on his tiptoes, trying to pull away from the black-robed guest. Harold had already escaped for a moment, and if he hesitated, he would be engulfed by the black flames that covered the black-robed guest's body.

Just as Harold jumped into the air and couldn't move around at will, several more cyan flames shot out from the black flames.

"Wind Bomb!" Harold used the basic magic of the wind system, but he knew that such magic could not stop the penetrating cyan flames.

So, this is for himself, and Harold is almost at zero distance to his chest to put a "wind bomb" magic.

As if he had been punched, Harold fell in mid-air like a kite with a broken string, narrowly avoiding almost all the cyan flame rays, only one cyan flame ray left a burn mark on his delicate cheek.

Harold, who was falling quickly, hooked the edge of the roof with an axe, and he kicked and shattered the glass of his neighbor's bedroom window, waking up his sleeping neighbor in the bedroom.

The neighbor couple, who had just woken up, saw a boot kick the glass window to pieces, the hostess screamed, and the lights of the entire block came on one after another.

But now is not the time to care about this, being able to catch this black-robed guest is the most important thing.

With this in mind, Harold ignored the riot he had caused, and at the same time ignored the pain in his body.

He rolled over and jumped back onto the roof of the house.

From a distance, the black-robed guest was flying in the northwest direction in levitation, and there were already three houses in that direction, with a distance of more than twenty meters.

Harold didn't hesitate, and jumped towards the house in the northwest direction, following closely behind the black-robed guest.

Two figures churning over the top of the building moved at high speed in the night of College City, and tonight was not destined to be a quiet night.

***************************************************

College City's busiest business district, even when it's nearly midnight, the shop windows are lit up, and the shops don't close until two o'clock.

However, it was close to midnight, and there were only a few pedestrians scattered on the street.

A squad of Knights of Punishment is carrying out daily night patrol duties, and a squad of Knights of Punishment is equipped with seven men, one horse, and two hounds.

Will, the leader of the patrol team, would lead the way on horseback, followed by six people on foot, two of whom would lead the hounds.

It was nearly midnight at this time, and Will, the leader of the patrol team, yawned, College City has always been very safe, and nothing special seemed to happen tonight.

"After patrolling this circle, we will change shifts." That's what Captain Will said to his teammates.

As soon as he finished speaking, the two hounds barked wildly, and Will frowned, and he subconsciously pulled the reins of his horse, ready to tell the team members who led the hounds to take good care of their dogs.

Just as he was stopping, he felt a chill on his scalp, as if a sharp object flew very close above his head.

Before he could figure out what was going on, there was the sound of a metal weight hitting the ground, and the horse he was riding was frightened, and instantly raised its front hooves.

Will was caught off guard and fell under his horse.

"....." Will just wanted to scold his mother, but saw a blood-stained axe stuck in the ground in front of him.

Seeing this, his blood instantly surged to the top of his head. Tonight was not unlucky, but lucky, and if it hadn't been for the hound barking twice just now, and he rode on his horse, the back of his head would not have been split by the axe.

Just as he was about to examine the axe that had been plunged into the ground, a dark figure descended from the sky and picked it up right under their noses.

The man didn't care about the patrol team of the Knights of Punishment behind him, but quickly moved to the three- or four-story building next to it, and climbed the building like a civet.

The whole process only takes a few seconds.

There are people in this city who dare to go wild under the noses of the knights of punishment.

Will reacted, and he shouted, "Stop! ”

However, the opponent's movements did not stop.

"Shoot!" Will immediately ordered.

Such an obviously very dangerous person does not need to pay attention to the rule of firing a warning gun first, and knock him down first before talking about other things.

The five muskets were fired in unison, and the other five members of the patrol team opened fire, except for Captain Will and another member of the team who had gone to pick him up.

The man who was climbing the building, however, only moved around a few times, dodged four bullets, and then split the last musket bullet with an axe.

The man neutralized the bullet attack of the five muskets in an understatement, and the next second disappeared from the patrol team's field of vision.

"Quick, fire flares!" Will ordered.

A team member opens the package, which contains four flares: red, blue, white, and cyan.

A red flare indicates a large, unexpected disaster that requires reinforcements.

Blue flares mean mass riots.

A white flare means a highly dangerous person.

The cyan flare means the presence of monsters and the danger of not being able to judge their attributes.

The team member asked, "Sir, shoot white or cyan?!" ”

Will quickly finished thinking about it, and he replied, "Cyan! ”

As soon as the team pulled the fuse, a cyan flare was launched, lighting up the night sky.

Will picked up the whistle around his neck, and he blew it again, and the clear whistle traveled far away.

Seconds later, the same whistle was heard from several directions, and several other patrols nearby were coming in for reinforcements.

Will climbed into his horse again, and shouted at the patrol behind him, "Lead the way with the hounds, and we'll chase!" ”

*************************************************

Harold couldn't catch up with the black-robed guest in front of him, and the distance between the two was twenty or thirty meters. Once Harold approached, the black-robed man would force him back with a cyan flame ray.

The throwing axe with which there was no jujube hit did not hit the black-robed guest, but instead alarmed the Knights of Punishment who were patrolling the ground.

The night sky was lit up by the light of flares, and whistles could be heard in the distance, and Harold knew that his actions had alerted the patrol of the Knights of Discipline.

"Damn it!" Harold cursed, and he was upset.

This is almost the city wall, and the black-robed guest in the distance seems to be about to escape over the city wall and escape outside the city.

"You can't just let him run away like this! If he is allowed to take that little white dragon away, Lilina's girl will definitely complain about me, I hate women's complaints the most! ”

Harold was determined that even if the mysterious black-robed man in front of him climbed over the wall, he would climb over the wall and catch up.
