Chapter 180: Ningluo Town

Carl, who flew in mid-air, directly left a fiery red streamer in the dark night sky of the entire imperial capital.

In the case of flying with fire phoenix energy, as long as Carl is unwilling, basically no enemy can catch up with him at this time!

Including those city defenders who had been greeted by the queen in advance, after noticing Carl's approach at this time, they were still powerless, and could only watch in amazement as Carl flew away from the imperial capital quickly.

Although there are many powerful anti-aircraft guns on the walls of the imperial capital, Karl's flight speed is too fast!

Before they could control the anti-aircraft artillery, he had already flown out of the defensive distance of the anti-aircraft artillery, leaving a group of people looking at his back in despair.

There is no doubt that Carl's escape this time not only made the queen's lineage's plan to intercept and kill completely failed, but even killed nearly a hundred warriors who belonged to the queen's lineage!

In one night, so many War Spirit Warriors were killed, even if it was a queen, I am afraid it would be broken!

Knowing that this operation, I am afraid that I have completely put myself on the opposite side of the queen's line, considering that he is now fledgling, he can only temporarily choose to retreat strategically!

In order not to be completely surrounded by the enemy who came later, Karl could only flapp his wings with all his strength and fly towards the northeast.

It wasn't until half an hour later, when the last bit of fire phoenix energy in Carl's body was exhausted, that he landed on the ground with a slight gasp.

Now he is even nearly 100 kilometers away from the imperial capital.

Carl, who had just landed, gasped and leaned on the side of the road, he never thought that leaving the imperial capital this time looked chic and abnormal, but it was not as easy as he imagined.

After consuming all the fire phoenix energy, Carl only felt a burst of emptiness and exhaustion in his body.

However, when he looked at the road behind him, he gradually felt relieved in his heart, at least at this distance, there would be less chasing soldiers in the imperial capital.

Sitting still, regaining a little strength, Carl slowly got up from the ground and looked around, but suddenly lost his position.

At this moment, the electronic communicator on his left wrist vibrate, and Carl looked down to see that it was an encrypted message from Arthur.

"Have you successfully escaped from the imperial capital, if you are safe, do not return!"

After reading this sentence, Carl just smiled slightly, and a trace of warmth flashed in his heart.

Although Arthur's statement was a little cold, he was still concerned about him after all, and this sentence also revealed a meaning, that is, if it was not a very urgent matter in the future, Carl would not have to contact Arthur too much.

With a smile on his face, Carl deleted Arthur's message, and it was not time to reveal the agreement between him and Arthur.

As soon as he finished deleting the message, Carl suddenly heard a rush of footsteps, judging by the number and frequency of footsteps, a small group of people were approaching him.

The identity of the comer could not be confirmed for the time being, and Karl did not dare to expose his body in front of them.

Looking up at the surrounding environment, I found that this was on the outskirts of the imperial capital, and it was a sparsely populated wild jungle.

Although a forest path has been forcibly carved out in this jungle for people to walk with, the rest of the jungle is still a dense green jungle.

With a smile on his face, Carl jumped to the top of a large tree beside him. The figure twisted straight down, and quickly hid on the branch.

It was getting brighter and brighter, and at such a time, ordinary residents should have just woken up and prepared for the day's work.

However, the crowd leaning over here was in a hurry, and it didn't look like they had just gotten up.

Sensing the rapid approach of those people, Karl held his breath, lowered his presence as much as possible, and began to observe the unidentified team.

About a dozen men dressed in various civilian costumes came to the area together, but their ages were different.

In addition to the fact that most of them were young adults, there were actually two or three gray-haired elderly people in this team!

"No, it won't! Even if they were to hunt me down, they wouldn't send such an old warrior, would they? Karl was dumbfounded as he watched the strange combination.

However, in the next second, when these people came to this area, several of them began to support the elderly people to sit on the side of the road.

This moment, it confuses Carl!

If they were all warriors who came to hunt him down, how could there be such an old man who had to gasp twice to even walk?

And even these young adults...... Karl looked at them with a frown, and was surprised to find that not all of these young men were warriors.

Judging from the energy fluctuations in their bodies, only two of the dozen or so young adults had battle spirit power fluctuations.

In this case, they are not here to hunt me down...... In line with the principle that more is better than less, Carl still honestly hid in the branches and temporarily let down his guard.

The team below arranged a few sentries and began to release the wind in different directions, while the rest of the team members all sat in place, recovering their physical strength with a bitter face.

"Captain, do you think we can get back to the stronghold this time?" One of the team members asked one of the War Spirit Warriors.

The captain blushed his face, hammered at the ground a little unwillingly, and said in his mouth: "Those imperial soldiers are really too much, old Hughes and they are so old, they still have to treat them so cruelly!" ”

After hearing the captain's words, the other team members also showed expressions of hatred and hatred, and condemned the actions of those Imperial soldiers.

Karl hid in the branches, and gradually understood the ins and outs.

The old men, known as Old Hughes, are all residents of a "Ningluo Town" not far away, and they make a living by selling some small goods on weekdays.

However, the Imperial soldiers who were responsible for maintaining law and order in the town of Ningluo had to collect protection money from some local petty traders every month, in addition to taxes and fees.

If the peddlers are unwilling to pay protection money, they will arrest them on various charges and take them to the police for torture.

It is not until the petty traders obediently pay their prescribed protection money that the sheriff's people release them.

It's just that the Gamma Empire has set extremely high taxes and fees for those merchants, and after bearing these taxes and fees, these small traders actually don't make much profit at all.

It's hard to make ends meet, let alone satisfy the extra greed of the Imperial soldiers.

In this situation, the residents of Ninluo Town are basically miserable, and from their conversation, Carl can clearly feel the resentment in their hearts.

But according to the regulations of the Gamma Empire, it is impossible for a small town to have only one sheriff's office, isn't there a higher authority to stop these people?

Just as Carl was puzzled, he heard the sound of a car engine again.

Wrong! This group is obviously on foot, why is there the sound of several cars again?

Thinking of this, Karl had secretly grasped the blade of the Wind Spear, ready to deal with any encounters that might arise.

As the cars drove closer and closer, the team members who were resting also reacted at this time.

The team member who was in charge of the sentry in this direction immediately came to the dirt slope with a higher field of vision and looked in the direction where the car was coming.

Two seconds later, the sentry's face changed, and he hurriedly turned around and shouted, "Captain, it's not good, the imperial soldiers in Ningluo Town have chased it out!" ”

The team leader's face also changed, he looked at the exhausted old men around him, and knew that it was impossible to force them to transfer at this time!

Sighing helplessly, the squad leader shouted: "All the fighters are gathered and ready to meet the enemy!" ”

A group of warriors, armed with their weapons, all came to both sides of the road, intending to ambush the vehicles.

With the help of the rising sun, Karl also saw clearly at this time that the guns in the hands of these soldiers were not the standard Carlin machine guns of the Gamma Empire at all!

The guns in their hands are extremely old and rudimentary, with slender barrels and artificially reloaded bolts, which era is this an ancient weapon used!

Karl frowned and continued to look at the approaching vehicles in the distance, the Imperial soldiers sitting in the vehicles, although judging from the appearance of weapons and equipment, were completely incomparable to the Sword and Shield Coalition.

But even so, the Carlin machine gun in each hand is not comparable to this squad of soldiers!

At this time, Karl became more and more curious about the identities of these people, and he really couldn't figure out why there was such a group of forces that opposed the imperial soldiers in the Gamma Empire.

However, when the vehicle officially approached, the soldiers sitting in the vehicle immediately spotted several elderly people resting on the side of the road.

At the commander's order, the three vehicles stopped not far away in time, and then a group of heavily armed Imperial soldiers jumped out of the vehicles.

What cared Karl the most was that the first two cars were filled with ordinary soldiers, while the last car was filled with only three people.

At this time, the three people came directly to the front of the team, and the three of them all walked towards the old men step by step with disdain and playful smiles on their faces.

"These three guys are all war spirit warriors! But why didn't they join the Sword and Shield Coalition together, but stayed in this Ningluo Town? ”

Karl muttered as he looked at the three arrogant warriors, his heart full of doubts.

When they walked up to the old men, one of the warriors said very arrogantly: "Old Hughes, you guys are quite capable, you can be locked in a cell, and you can still beat the jailer and escape!" ”

Old Hughes showed a resigned expression, and said very fiercely: "If you want to kill or chop, you can do whatever you want!" Anyway, a few of us old guys have lived long enough! ”

The War Spirit Warrior who was the leader suddenly let out a sneer, not being provoked by the other party's words. For him, killing these old men was just an easy task.

However, as soon as he raised his hand, a War Spirit Warrior on the side suddenly stretched out his hand to stop him.

Then, with a sneer, he asked old Hughes, "Don't think that if you don't mention it, you can be fooled!" ”

"Tell me who got you out of your cell! Don't tell us that you escaped on your own, no matter how weak the jailer is, he is stronger than a few of you old immortals! ”

Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished saying this, those hidden warriors stood up one by one in the roads on both sides.

"Shoot!" The captain shouted below, and his warriors pulled the bolt of their guns at the enemy below.

However, the moment they appeared, one of the three Battle Spirit Warriors had already waved his hands, and a touch of rich Battle Spirit Power enveloped all of them in it!
