CH.92 The Chamber of Secrets

The back door of the hall leads to a corridor, not very wide, with many rooms on either side.

Brent ran down the corridor, but not as fast as he was, for he was too fat. The group of men followed closely behind the boss, blocking the corridor to the brim, and these people looked back as they ran, beware of An Rui and the others catching up.

Unfortunately, what they feared would eventually happen.

An Rui's group quickly chased them to the back door and ran into the hallway. The corridor was too narrow for the Ice Dragon to move, so Anrui retracted it into his arm. Against the rest of the rabble, it doesn't matter if there is an Ice Dragon or not.

At Anrui's behest, Berego set up his bow and arrows and shot wildly* at the fleeing crowd, raining arrows one after another.

Some of those who could not dodge were shot by arrows and screamed in pain. They were forced to stop, otherwise they would only be a live target. However, these people who stopped did not stop An Rui and the others, their strength was not as good as Sharod, and this self-knowledge was still there.

"You block the arrows, I'll open the window, and we'll escape through the window together!"

That's what these people stopped for.

They were divided into two, some wielding blades to block the arrows, while the other hurriedly opened the window and jumped out of the window. The rest followed, one by one, and all fled through the window.

Of course, there are also those who run slowly, and the fate of these people is very miserable, all of them are left here forever by Bereg's arrows, and they are reduced to corpses with arrows stuck in their heads.

I have to say that Berego's bow and arrows are still very effective against these miscellaneous soldiers, and one or two arrows will definitely kill one.

Instead of chasing those who fled through the window, Anrui continued to pursue Brent and his gang.

Bront's men kept choosing to flee, and no one dared to confront Anrui and his gang head-on, and when it came to this, Brent was simply reduced to a lonely family, leaving him alone to run in the corridors, shaking the fat body.

Anrui's group ran so fast that they soon caught up with Brent, and the two sides were only about five yards apart.

Recalling what had happened to Berrent, Berego saw a fury in his eyes as he mounted a sharp arrow and aimed it at the back of Brent's head. But just as Berego was about to open his bow and arrows, Anrui's hand reached out and stopped him.

"Don't worry, let him run first." An Rui said meaningfully. If he wanted to kill Brent directly, he could have done it a long time ago, so why wait until now.

Although Berego was unwilling, he didn't say anything, and obediently lowered his hand holding the bow and arrow. After many days of getting along, he has already agreed with An Rui, the captain, although it has not yet reached the point of obedience, but it is almost there, as long as it is a reasonable order, he will obey it.

Brent ran like crazy, panicked footsteps echoing through the hallways. He kept running forward, not daring to look back at all, for fear of seeing something bad. But he knew in his heart that An Rui and the others must still be behind, and his group of wine bags and rice bags were not the opponents of An Rui and the others at all.

Brent finally made his way through the hallway, took out the key, opened a door, and entered a room that resembled a study, with a lot of books. He ran to a bookshelf in a hurry, found one of the special books, and pulled it down hard.

I heard a rattling sound, and there was a sound of a mechanism behind the book, and the entire bookshelf moved on its own, revealing a secret door. It turns out that there is another secret room behind this bookshelf!

Hidden in the walls, the secret door was several feet thick and made of metal that ordinary people could not break.

Brent looked at the open secret door and looked surprised, once he entered this secret room, he would be safe. No matter how powerful An Rui and the others were, it was impossible to break through such a thick metal plate. However, just as he was thinking this, a large iron hand suddenly fell from the sky, grabbed the back of his neck, and lifted him alive. His feet were off the ground, kicking wildly. The secret room was only one step away from him, but he never thought of entering it in his life.

"Let go of me! Let me go! Brent shouted in panic.

"Okay. Let go and let go of you. An Rui sneered, and threw the Brent in his hand on the ground, this big fat man was more than 200 pounds, and when he fell to the ground, it was like a cannonball, making a loud noise.

Brent was so smashed that he was about to vomit out the sour water, and rolled on the ground, humming incessantly.

"Beregor, Brent will be handed over to you, I'll go here and get something, which is tonight's reward." After An Rui finished speaking, he stepped into the secret room.

An Rui had long known that there was such a secret room in Brent, and when he saw that Brent was running this way, he guessed seven or eight points in his heart, so he did not rush to chase Brent, but waited until now to make a move.

This chamber was used by Brent to hide his gold and silver treasures, and was built with several heavy copper walls and a secret passage leading to the outside. When there is nothing to do, Brent uses this place to hide money, and when there is trouble, he can also use this place to escape.

It's a pity that this secret room didn't come in handy tonight.

An Rui walked into the secret room, glanced around, and saw the treasure chest located on the wall. He walked over, dropped his sword in hand, slashed the lock with the wind, and opened the chest.

Inside is a plethora of gold and silver jewelry, sparkling with a brilliant luster of various colors. Together, these gold, silver, and jewels were worth more than 2,000 gold coins, which was all of Brent's liquidity.

"Tsk!" An Rui looked at the treasure in the box, his breathing paused slightly, and he couldn't help but sigh. I have to say that treasure really has a kind of magic, and anyone who sees it will have greedy thoughts.

In fact, his starting point for dealing with Brent was originally very simple, but the cheapness of sending it to the door could not be ignored. Leave this money here, sooner or later it will be cheaper for others, and it is better for him to take it himself. The money he spent last time on selling ore veins had already been spent, and after having this money, it could be used as money for purchases.

At the same time, Bereg, standing outside the secret room, had already aimed the tip of his arrow at Brent, and the bowstring creaked, accumulating a dangerous amount of force.

Brent could never have imagined that his previous actions of forcibly seizing the Weasel King's furs and imprisoning Berego would lead to today's murder. If he knew that Berego had a backer like An Rui, he wouldn't have done anything at all. But now it's too late to regret it, and nothing can be undone.

"Please," cried Brent, "and remember to do it simply, and don't let me suffer, for I am afraid of pain." ”

"As you wish." Bereg's eyes widened, and he let go of his fingers that were clasping the bowstring.

The arrow flew out and pierced Brent's head, killing the profiteer.

Brent's pupils constricted, and he lost focus and became sluggish. He fell to the ground, his wounds gurgling and bleeding.

Berego looked at the dead Brent, and finally vomited the stuffiness that had been held in his chest for many days.

"Alright, let's go." An Rui walked out with a heavy treasure chest and waved his hand. He didn't even bother to look at the corpse on the ground.

The three of them left the place and returned the same way down the hallway, and as they passed through a room, there was an intermittent crying sound in the room.

Curious, An Rui swung his sword to cut the door lock, pushed open the door, and looked in.

I saw a large bed in the center of the room, and there were five thinly dressed women on the bed, and the crying was made by them.

When these women saw An Rui breaking through the door, they screamed in fright, hugged each other, and didn't dare to cry anymore.

"Who are you?" An Rui asked with a frown.

"We are the slave girls of the boss of Brent." One of the Terran women replied boldly.

"I see." An Rui showed a sudden expression, hesitated for a moment, and continued, "Brent is dead, from now on, you are no longer anyone's slave girl, if you want to leave here, leave as soon as possible." ”

"Boss Brent is dead?" The woman was startled, almost unable to believe her daughter.

An Rui shrugged his shoulders and explained in a few words, but he didn't go into too much detail.

Several female slaves looked at each other, and for a while they didn't know what to do.

Sha Fei was kind-hearted, comforted the female slaves a few words, and asked An Rui for a few gold coins, and distributed them to the female slaves, telling them to leave here quickly and find a way to start a new life.

It was always easier for a woman to believe a woman's words, and the slave girls no longer doubted, accepted Shafi's gift, and hurried out of the room, and went their separate ways.

Next, Anrui and his party did nothing superfluous, and swaggered out of Brent's mansion and into the street.

Just then, there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves at the other end of the street.

Attracted by the sound of horses' hooves, An Rui stopped, followed the sound, and narrowed his eyes slightly. Through the lights on both sides of the street, he could clearly see the appearance of this group of people.

Riding their horses came a group of guards wearing chain mail, helmets, and red cloaks. These guards are responsible for maintaining law and order in the area, but law enforcement is not strict and not strict at all.

It is impossible to manage a neutral port like this in an orderly manner. The main purpose of the existence of these guards is to maintain the dominance of those in power and protect the interests of those in power from being harmed. As for the conflicts between local maritime merchants, pirates, and foreign navies, the local guards rarely paid attention to them, and always turned a blind eye.

However, no matter how lax the management is, if there is such a thing as a rich merchant being killed, the local guards still have to ask about it after all.

"You guys, stand still and don't move!" The captain of the ranks of the guards shouted.
