"Sure enough...... The Lord's anticipation was not misplaced. ”

The huge threat caused Akaji's pupils to shrink instantly.

The next moment, the regular army, densely packed in the surrounding ruins, stood up.

from underground. From the bell tower. from behind the wall. From the wreckage of the building.

In just an instant, the three-digit regular army instantly locked the whereabouts of the red tree flower with crossbow arrows.

Enchanted arrows had already been set up on their crossbows.

"Give up, Arsu...... No, Mr. Devil," said Marquis Saya in a deep voice, "you have no room to escape. ”

With a click-clattering sound, the safety of the crossbow was opened. With a slight touch of the trigger, the tightened bowstring will shoot the arrow.

Akajika immediately realized her crisis.

But he didn't make any moves.

"What are you still struggling with? Do you still want to run? Why do you think you can run? ”

Marquis Saya couldn't help but laugh.

Even though he was less than ten paces away from the masked butcher, Marquis Saya was not the least afraid.

In his hand he wielded an ornately decorated Karar sword, on which a warm emerald green glow could be seen.

Akajika could see it very clearly, and his eyes flashed with a strong battle intent. But his fighting spirit was not scorching.

Akajika had no doubt that if she rushed up to fight the Marquis of Saya, then she was afraid that her result would be pierced by a cold arrow coming from behind.

Even though Marquis Saya is easy-going and tolerant, and he doesn't see the slightest general, he hates the devil. In this way, it is impossible for him to be fair to the "devil".

However, Akajika keenly discovered one thing from the words of Marquis Saya. That is, at the very least, these ordinary soldiers around me have nothing to do with the devil and the cultists.

…… In other words, the Marquis of Saya was also instructed by his superiors? Or was he deceived by others? Or is all he doing is disguise and acting?

Akajika narrowed her eyes slightly.

Let's say. Marquis Saya himself had an affair with the devil, and he was just disguising his innocence with his acting skills at this time, and planting false accusations for Akaji, everything before was reasonable.

And if the Marquis of Saya is innocent, but he has been instructed or provoked by someone who really has an affair with the devil, then that is. The devil had made up his mind to let Akajika carry the black cauldron on him—to have such an idea, it was probably the purple transparent devil that was parasitic on his sword that could control the will of others was discovered.

Either/or. There is no other possibility. It is impossible for such a regular army to be deployed on an ad hoc basis.

Allowing three or four hundred elite warriors to infiltrate his territory - such a stupid thing that the Earl could not have allowed as long as he had a little brain. He is more or less an earl, and he still has the ability to do so.

But Marquis Saya was able to ambush so many regular troops here immediately after the collapse, and it was clear that he had known that there would be an explosion here.

But did the explosion have anything to do with him......

After thinking for a moment, Akajika spoke in her own voice: "Did you already know that something terrible was going to happen here...... Disaster? ”

Very ingenious. Akajika does not use the word "explosion".

"That monster, you say?"

Marquis Saya narrowed his eyes, as if he also realized something, and after thinking for a while, he replied, "Of course someone told me. ”

He didn't lie.

Akajika immediately sensed this. Perhaps there was something inaccurate in the words of the Marquis of Sayya, but he did not lie.

But...... Monster? What do you mean? Not fried. If you play...... What does it represent?

Akajika realizes that things are not pure. The truth was stuck in his throat and was about to pour out, but he was not good at thinking, and he knew that the answer had already flowed to his mouth, but he still couldn't say it.

However, just after a brief hesitation, someone suddenly went wild.

There may be something inappropriate about a word like fire. But that's to the effect.

Someone accidentally touched the trigger, and the glittering crossbow bolt was fired at the red oak flower.

Akajihana, who had opened the pre-determination, easily cut off the crossbow arrows that were attacking her. A cold mist burst out.

Akajika suddenly felt that her right hand was a little numb from the cold. Immediately, a faint feeling of sleepiness welled up in my heart.

- There's a problem in the fog!

But before he could burst out with his killing intent. The crossbowmen around them decisively activated the arrows on their crossbows, and crouched down and shook their rocker arms to wind up the second crossbow arrow.

They didn't shoot all the arrows in one go, but in batches. If you take two seconds as a round, you will shoot out in exactly four rounds. By the time eight seconds had passed, the first set of crossbow bolts was almost ready.

“Fos！”

When Marquis Saya saw the first crossbow arrow flying over, he gently pronounced the trigger word. An emerald green eggshell-shaped halo enveloped him, and all the arrows that might have landed on him began to shift their direction far away.

In an instant, the cold mist covered all of them, including the Marquis of Sayya. The covering blow lasted for a full eight seconds, and all the attacks within eighty meters of the red tree flower were within range. Several people behind Marquis Saya were directly swept into the blows of a blizzard, and they were frozen into ice slag in an instant.

They were decoys from the start. It's a pity, though. Before the Marquis of Saya could use them, they were already about to capture the red oak.

That's right. They didn't want to kill the "devil" with crossbow arrows, but to capture it. The hypnotic potions that the druids had concocted were enough to make any devil weak and sleepy. This neighborhood has already been sanctified by the Marquis of Sayya, otherwise he wouldn't have bothered so much about the red oak flower.

Sure enough, as the ice fog dissipated, Arzu's skin was pale with frost on his arms and pierced by four or five broken hollow crossbow arrows, and most of his mask was shattered, and blood was pouring out of it. He lay quietly on the ground, unconscious.

Marquis Saya frowned slightly.

He lifted his feet and was about to walk to the red oak.

"Your Excellency!"

"The formula given by that adult, there is absolutely no way to go wrong."

A guard tried to stop the marquis, but the marquis just smiled and shook his head: "I have used it to hunt many devils. ”

But just as he took out a short sword inlaid with emeralds from his bosom and wanted to pierce Akaji's body, Akajihua, whose signs of life were incomparably weak, suddenly opened her eyes, her eyes flashed, and she reached out and grabbed the wrist of the stunned Marquis Saya.

Then he pressed his fingers and twisted his wrist, causing Marquis Sayya's short sword to stab into his own chest, and then trembled slightly.

The Marquis immediately coughed up a mouthful of blood in pain.

Just now, Akajika used the skill of the weapon master to directly shatter all the marquis's internal organs.

"Lord Marquis!"

Amid the mournful cries of the warriors, a second round of arrows struck again—(To be continued.) )
