Chapter 76: Chaos
"Let the war begin? Scold...... If Burnham had said this, Black Rose would have been careful, but up to you? Boy, what are you kidding? Just because you, an officer who has not even become a general, want to threaten me with such words? “
The grocery store owner's voice can almost be described as a roar, and at this point, the officer no longer has the need to restrain his anger, although it doesn't matter if he fights at this time, but in reality, he did not go toe-to-toe with the grocer owner as he imagined, but showed a rather conceited smile because of his confidence, as if everything was already under his control: "Threat? No, no, no...... You completely misunderstood what I meant, I am not threatening anything, I am just stating a fact to you, and you can see that with one or two ordinary soldiers, there may not be any value in fighting with you at all, so what about hundreds or even thousands of people? “
What the......?
Bell......
As if premeditated, as soon as the officer's words fell, the communication bell rang immediately, and the grocery store owner's body trembled slightly, as if he was frightened by the sudden ringing, but he almost immediately returned to normal, walked steadily to the counter and pressed the button: "It's me." ”
"How's it going for you?"
The voice came directly into the grocery store owner's mind through magic, and the other party's tone was very urgent, and the boss quietly raised his head and looked around, and replied expressionlessly: "It's not bad, there is an officer who is looking for trouble here with his men, and I will find a way to get him away." ”
"Hoo ......"
When he heard that there was an officer here, there was a very uncomfortable sigh from the other end, and the person did not continue immediately, as if he had encountered some headache, and after a while of silence, the other party finally spoke: "Listen, the situation is very complicated now, the army seems to be planning something, the specific situation is not clear to us, but now the entire Greenston army has been mobilized, and now around your position, there is at least one or more complete team of soldiers, We haven't figured out exactly what the army wants to do yet, the reinforcements you've sent are already on the way, and you have to be careful and keep yourself safe until they arrive, if necessary...... You can decide to destroy all the evidence there. ”
……
"What's wrong? You really don't look good, did you get some news? Oh, it's really a black rose, it found out about our movements so quickly, so ...... Can we talk about business? ”
The officer didn't lie, a team with a full establishment of soldiers had at least a thousand people, and the grocery store owner left a cold sweat on his forehead, if he was still young now, it would be somewhat possible to escape from a whole group of soldiers with these two people, but unfortunately with the current he can only protect himself, then these two children ......
"Hey! Are you listening to me...... I see, it's a business, yes, if you want to get it, you have to pay for it...... Oh well, sorry I didn't make it clear before, we've got the right price ready for Black Roses, as long as you ...... If these two join the army, you can get a great value for money, and you will definitely not regret this deal, how about it? ”
Coercion and temptation, it seems that the regular army has been prepared this time, this kind of snatching of talents is not an uncommon thing among various forces, but ...... If it was really talented, Diric was just a thief with some stealing skills, and his brother seemed to be just an ordinary mercenary, why did they ...... so obsessed with these two people?
Could it be ......!
"I need to discuss it with them, please wait a moment."
"Please." The officer made an exaggerated gesture of invitation, no matter what they discussed, it didn't matter to him, the general had already given him enough authority, and he didn't think that with such full preparation, these people could come up with any other ideas.
"Listen to me......"
"No, listen to me" Zhao Xin just wanted to speak, but the grocery store owner had already pressed his shoulder, pulled him and Dirikra aside and whispered, "Listen, these guys don't dare to do anything to me, there is a crystal bomb with enough weight in the ground here, I will use this to entertain these guests, and I will create a chance for you to escape later, all you have to do is to stay away from here as much as possible, understand?" “
"Do you want to escape?" Zhao Xin was not surprised by this choice, it was the wisest choice in this case, but somehow, from the tone and demeanor of the grocery store owner, he seemed to sense a displeasing feeling, he did not give any answer to this proposal, crossed his arms and asked in a low voice, "Then what are you going to do?" “
"Me? Thank you for your concern, although I hate to admit it, but this guy is right, once I detonate this bomb, this place will immediately become the front line of the battlefield, as a member of the Black Rose, I can't be a deserter. “
This one bomb is not enough to deal with this whole group of soldiers, is he going to deal with the rest alone...... Zhao Xin grabbed him, looked him into his eyes and asked in a low voice, "You don't have to do this at all, tell me, do you have any reason why you have to do this?" “
The grocery store owner didn't speak, he also looked directly into Zhao Xin's eyes, and after a while, he said slowly: "If I'm not mistaken, the thing you stole is definitely not an ordinary treasure, the reason why the army invited you at any cost is just to keep your mouth shut, and at the same time to blackmail the black rose with what you did, to put it simply, the commission you received is simply a scam, and you are the evidence of the military, so ...... We can only fight. “
“…… Good luck. “
"What......?"
Diric thought he had misheard, he originally thought that Zhao Xin would not hesitate to help the grocery store owner, but Zhao Xin just dropped such a sentence, what was he thinking...... He had already saved himself who had nothing to do with him, but now he was unwilling to save someone who might lose his life for him?
Looking at Diric's surprised expression, Zhao Xin understood what he was thinking, just like all children of this age, his thoughts were written on his face, he might look down on the decision he made now, but for Zhao Xin, this is just a war between the Noxian army and the Black Rose, he has no reason and no need to participate in this war that does not belong to him, rational judgment and action, this is the first principle that the second taught Zhao Xin after coming to Demacia.
"Have you discussed it?"
The officer had been waiting a little impatiently, and he didn't want to wait too long here so as not to have too many dreams at night, but as soon as the three of them turned around, the expressions on their faces immediately made him understand something-except for the youngest child, these two were ready to give it a go, and the officer did not dare to be careless, and immediately turned his body slightly and ordered: "Let everyone get ready, these two guys are going to do it!" ”
"Try to be careful, although our strength is worthy of them, but there is a gap in numbers after all" The grocery store owner looked coldly at the group of people in front of him, "Try to run away to other cities, now ......"
"Zhao Xin, can you hear me?"
This voice is......
Just when the lead was about to be ignited, Xiu's voice suddenly sounded in Zhao Xin's mind, and he was stunned for a moment, why did Xiu suddenly appear at such a time, could it be that he had been monitoring himself: "Prince?" You...... How did you get in touch with me? “
"Don't talk about that, are you safe now?"
"Yes, I ......"
"Very good, I'll come to you right away, get down!"
"Everybody! Don't let this crowd run away! The officer didn't want to wait any longer, but just as he gave the order, the young man with an indifferent expression in front of him suddenly pushed the other two to the ground, what was going on? I obviously only arranged one undercover agent, whose subordinate is he? Before he could come up with an answer, a soft white light suddenly came from outside the door, and now it was clearly midnight, where did this light come from? He turned around and looked up, there was no moonlight tonight, and at this time, a ball of light much brighter than the moon was hanging in the air. It seems that it was not mentioned when the task was arranged, was it the magic of the group of magicians, or some new technology that Zaun had researched? The officers would not have understood, and the soldiers who were waiting outside the door were equally confused, and they were just as looking up at the strange ball of light, looking at the ......
Hiss -
What is this sound? At this moment, a soldier standing in the shadows noticed something, he seemed to hear the sound of objects being roasted by the heat, while at the same time, a soldier standing in front of him was smoking green smoke from his helmet and was still smoking while carrying out his mission? He deliberately patted his helmet a little helplessly: "Don't smoke, you burn things......"
Crash.
With just a slap, the sturdy helmet shattered all over the ground as if it had been rusted, and the parts illuminated by the white light quickly decomposed and turned into green smoke under the gaze of everyone, while the parts blocked by the shadows had no problems.
The soldiers looked at each other, and even the most stupid guys understood the true purpose of this white light at this time.
"Quick...... Hurry up and find some place to hide! This light ...... This white light is breaking everything down! “
This is the strength of the Magister, but this is still a long way from the full strength, Zhao Xin's ice pick covers a range of only tens of meters, and when counting the losses of Greenston afterwards, the Noxians realized that the entire city has been decomposed by this white light, fortunately, Xiu's mercy saved their lives, the target of this white light decomposition is not the human body, coupled with the mercy of his subordinates, the entire Grimston City was not affected by this magic for too long under the efforts of the Noxian magician, and as a price, The entire surface of the city had to be rebuilt.
"Okay Zhao Xin, it's time for us to go."
In the crowd of scattered runners, a young man in a shabby junior magician's robe walked into the grocery store leisurely, everything around him seemed to have nothing to do with him, and the crowd in the chaos didn't notice his appearance at all, Zhao Xin raised his head, he looked at the gentle prince in front of him with a complicated expression, wondering if he was still qualified to be his guard, but it didn't matter, Xiu didn't seem to care about these at all, and still stretched out his hand to him.
"Your Royal Highness, the Prince...... But now the situation is so chaotic, how should we ......?"
"Don't worry, since I do this, I'm ready to deal with the next trouble" As he spoke, a magic array appeared at Zhao Xin and Xiu's feet, this is the teleportation array, Zhao Xin was slightly startled, and immediately jumped out of the circle and hugged Dirick, who was already scared stupidly: "I want to take this person with me." “
"Huh?" This move surprised Xiu a little, but judging from Zhao Xin's expression, he also guessed that this kid was closely related to Zhao Xin's actions tonight, Xiu didn't think much about it, and immediately nodded, "Okay, let's go." ”
At the moment when the teleportation circle was activated, Zhao Xin also seemed to feel a little relieved, but soon, he noticed something, and this was the point he was most unwilling to see and the most afraid of.
The advice given to him by the spiritual magician came true like a prophecy, whether Zhao Xin was willing to admit it or not, even if he only stayed in the hotel tonight, all this trouble would not happen, it was him, and what he did tonight, that dragged Xiu into this chaotic and dangerous situation that had nothing to do with him at all.
