The square is very large, there are a lot of people, and the nearest house is also far from the podium in the center of the square, and it is extremely difficult to shoot people from this distance, although Augustus is in the range, but in the eyes of the shooter, this consul is as small as a stick, even if six people aim and shoot together, there will be a situation where not a single arrow will be missed.

This kind of thing was also in Jike's consideration, and when the six crossbow arrows grazed Augustus and shot at the side, the scene suddenly became chaotic.

"There are assassins!" the guards on the side hurriedly shouted, and in an instant, a human wall was erected in front of Augustus, and shields were erected, guarding Augustus and Bashir who came to show his face behind him.

"Go and search where the arrows are flying!" said the captain of the guard, commanding the guards, "block the entrances and exits, do not enter or exit, and search the whole place." ”

A few people close to the podium saw the crossbow bolts inserted in the periphery, these people immediately realized the problem, the crowd gradually began to stir, far away from the center, and the three of Zhou Lie, who were not listening to the speech at all, looked around a little blankly, feeling a little strange why the atmosphere suddenly changed.

"Poof!"

The soldiers of the Crow Army who were mixed in the crowd threw smoke bombs from their hands, and the already restless crowd suddenly exploded, and the people who were frightened by the first knife screamed and ran in all directions, and the guards had no way to maintain order, and even the guards who protected Augustus were scattered in the flow of people, leaving only two or three people to guard Augustus.

Zhou Lie grabbed Ania and Byron's arms tightly with both hands and dragged them under the table, in this crowd one was accidentally scattered and fell to the ground, it was impossible to get up again, rather than escape with the flow of people, it was better to hide in a place to avoid the flow of people.

The result was also as Zhou Lie expected, the chaos of the flow of people outside almost overturned the long table, the three of them hid under the table, the pots and pans on the table kept falling, and the two boys could still keep calm, Ania had closed her eyes and grabbed the two boys with a nervous face.

"What happened?"

"I don't know, but there's a vague shout of an assassin or something. ”

"Hey. Zhou Lie sighed, it seems that he can't pass the last half a year here, why do people still come to make trouble during the Frost Festival.

"Anyway, don't go out for a while, and wait for the commotion outside to stop. ”

The two friends nodded, and the three of them lay silently under the table, praying that the chaos would end soon.

The crows who caused the chaos left the square with the flow of people, knowing that their companions had approached Augustus, and that at the beginning of the speech, there were already people lurking in front of the podium, causing chaos and breaking up Augustus's guards, which was their chance.

Bashir and Augustus huddled next to the campfire under the protection of the three guards, surrounded by a crowded and chaotic crowd, when they just retreated, they did not expect that the guards who were originally their shield wall could be dispersed by the crowd, and several people did not go far, and immediately returned to the campfire to avoid the flow of people.

It has to be said that this move has caused trouble to the assassins of the Crow Army, who want to cover their tracks and assassinate the other party without being detected, which is naturally the most suitable in the crowd, but now that Augustus is under protection, these assassins have no chance to approach them quietly.

The guards on the periphery are struggling to maintain order, the road belongs to Fox, and now the rebels who are temporarily involved in maintaining order also help the guards calm the chaos.

There was a lot of time left for the Assassins, and when the crowd settled down and it would be more difficult for them to succeed, there was only one option left for them, and that was to force a breakthrough.

Several of the Assassins nodded, and then pretended to be panicked and ran towards Augustus' location, pretending to be hit by passers-by a few times and tripped to the ground.

"What are you doing!" the captain of the guard who remained by August's side yelled at the arrival, and whoever approached Augustus at this time could be said to be suspected of being an assassin.

"We are soldiers of the Crows. The three Crow Assassins who came running over said, "There is a commotion like this, and we have come to ensure the safety of Lord Augustus." ”

Hearing that the other party said that they were members of the Crow Army, the three guards relaxed a little, and they also knew that this unit was a special force that stayed here to monitor Augustus, and they were allowed to enjoy the festival in the city during the festival, so there was nothing wrong with this ordinary dress.

"Okay, please make sure the perimeter is safe and wait until the other guards arrive and leave the square with us. The captain of the guard said.

"Okay!" the crow army smiled at this moment and approached the people stretched out their hands to pat the guard's shoulder, but when the hand reached halfway, it suddenly turned, and a delicate dagger appeared between the hands, dripping into the guard's neck, and with a slight turn, he pulled out the dagger, and with a snort, blood gushed like a spring, and soared from his neck to the air.

The captain of the guard stared at the man in front of him in disbelief, clutching his throat helplessly, trying to stop the gushing blood, and finally collapsed, no longer moving.

After solving one person, the remaining guards hurriedly protected Augustus behind him, drew their long swords to meet the enemy, and the three rushed forward with daggers in hand at this moment, ready to break through the guards of the two and kill Augustus directly.

Although they lost one of the guards, the soldiers of the Crow Army only had daggers in their hands, and the three of them faced the two fully armed guards, in fact, they did not have an advantage, so the three of them were basically unwilling to fight with the two guards, and they were bent on attacking the place where Augustus was.

In the face of the other party's attack, the two guards had no way, the other party took a slight advantage and pushed away to find an opportunity, and the two of them could only rely on the sword and long shield to protect the two behind them, but even so, the four of them were constantly retreating.

The three assassins easily forced Augustus and his party to the campfire, facing the three people who surrounded them, Augustus had no way to retreat, and then retreated to the campfire, in order to be able to easily light such a huge firewood, poured fuel oil under the bonfire, if they retreated into it, the other party only needed to throw in a torch to burn them all.

The trio of Assassins were also clearly aware of this, but the more times like this, the more desperate they were.

Scott was nervous right now, this was the first time he had faced a real life-and-death battle, and he couldn't understand why the Crows soldiers would plan to kill Augustus, they were watchers, and even if Augustus did something wrong, he shouldn't have done it this way.

"As soldiers, you're going to mutiny?" asked Scott aloud.

Hearing the other party's question, the Crow soldier laughed, pointed his dagger at Augustus behind Scott and said, "The consul behind you is a traitor, and he actually let the stupid and savage Portians enter the government hall and let them get along with us on an equal footing?

Scott's face was fierce, staring at the other party, and he shook his head, "The Portians are not barbaric and stupid, on the contrary, they are just like us, and there are not a few people among them who are noble and willing to sacrifice for others, and it is not justice to discriminate and exploit them just because of the other party's beliefs." ”

"Hehe, it seems that you are also a traitor, so the traitor should be killed, no need to say more. The words fell, and with a flick of his hand, the dagger came out of his hand and flew towards Augustus.

Within a moment's notice, neither guard reacted, but was actually caught by the other party, and the small dagger passed through the middle of the two guards like a gray shadow, and nailed to Augustus's right chest.

"Ah!" cried Augustus in pain.

was attacked by the other party so suddenly, and the two guards hurriedly raised their shields to protect the two people behind.

They need reinforcements.

Most of the chaotic crowd has left the square along the flow of people, and the ground is lying on the ground in the chaos, trampled and seriously injured, the guards have not been able to break through the flow of people to the middle of the square, but I believe that in less than five minutes, they can reach the center of the square.

Scott had to hold on until the guards on the perimeter came in, and the three were to make sure to inflict another fatal wound on Augustus within five minutes.

"There's an assassin assassinating Lord Augustus around the campfire, come and help!" Scott shouted, though it was unlikely, but Scott hoped someone would.

At this moment, the trio and another guard beside them were all taken aback when they saw Scott's sudden request for help, and then the three assassins no longer waited for the opportunity and prepared to attack directly, although the possibility of the other party calling for reinforcements was very low, but they could not take risks.

"Help, help!"

As if awakened by Scott's actions, Bashir, who was behind the two guards, helped Augustus and began to shout.

"Kill the stinky child, shut up!" The Crow soldier scolded in annoyance, and the attack in his hand became even more urgent.

Both sides were the last fight, and the soldiers of the Black Crow Army were no longer as far away as before, and under the desperate attack of the other side, the two guards were gradually unable to parry.

Bashir's cry for help has never stopped, because of fear and nervousness, the shouting has long been broken, it sounds like a wail, he can't imagine that he just followed Augustus out as a sign, how could he encounter this kind of thing, although he didn't know if he could ask for rescuers, but he only continued to shout, so that he could continue to support Augustus a little, he felt that if he stopped, I am afraid that he would no longer have the strength to stand up on his legs.

In fact, as long as the Crow Army doesn't care about losses, there is no suspense in this three-on-two battle at all, as long as the two guards can be held back for a moment, the last person can kill the two unarmed people behind.

At this time, they did so, and the two Crow soldiers were no longer the same as before, but directly pounced on each other one-on-one, and after dodging the other party's attack, they kept trying to find a way to entangle each other at close quarters, giving the third person a chance to attack, and even for a second, it was their victory.

Scott found out about the other party's intentions, so he kept wielding his sword to push back the enemies who wanted to come up.

The master has been fighting for so long, he is tired after all, and when the speed of the sword is slowed down by a beat, the other party seized the opportunity and pounced directly, directly using the grappling technique to restrain Scott's right hand holding the sword, and at the same time, another guard was also treated in the same way.

"It's now!"

The last Assassin raised his dagger and charged at Augustus.

"Nope. Scott roared in despair, and with a flick of his right wrist, the sword was thrown up, making an arc in the air and landing on his left hand.

Then slash at the opponent.

This sword did cut the opponent's left arm, but that's it, after the opponent stumbled, he continued to raise the dagger and stab.

The failure of the sword to kill the other party just now was their defeat, and the Crow soldiers who were entangled in him at this moment once again restricted the movement of his left hand, and no matter how much Scott struggled, he could not get rid of the other party's restraints.

The dagger stabbed Augustus in the chest at a rapid pace, threatening to take his life in the next second.

"Bang"

It's the sound of a cowhide sole kicking a person's head.

A black-haired teenager didn't know when he appeared, and the Crow soldier had already flown two meters away.
