Chapter 34 Tripartite Gathering
PS: These are the characters who slash Crimson Pupil Zero, i.e., Crimson Hitomi's companion during the assassination unit's experience. If you don't know, you can take a look at what I wrote: "Sister", or directly Baidu Encyclopedia.
Bailang River, a city in the northeast of the empire, on the edge of a cliff around it, a blonde man sat leisurely on a stone pier, with a total of six people in front of him.
"Your new mission is finally here." The blonde man's name is Gozqi, and the six of them are members of the Imperial Assassination Elite Group he leads.
"This time I need you to come to the land of Putra, which is a barren land full of rocks. There, no matter how hard you work, you can't engage in agriculture. It is an empty land of history, where the huge tombs of ancient kings sleep. It is said that he was a great king to the people of Putra, and they still contribute gold and silver treasures to him to this day. ”
A man with ribbed eyebrows and a nose bridge is on the top of his nose, wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses and glasses. His name was: "Green", ranked No.5 in the assassination elite group, and he asked Gozzi in confusion: "Is there no one to rob the tomb?" ”
Gozzi sneered, and said the reason with a gloomy face: "Because someone is here, Guardian!" ”
A young and charming girl with a waist-length single ponytail looks very lively. Her name is: "Poni", and she is ranked No.4 in the assassination elite group. There is also a girl with short light hair and big watery eyes, and her big breasts are different from her petite face. Her name is: "Tsukushi", and she is ranked No.6 in the assassination elite group. The two girls frowned, and said in disgust as if they were disgusted by the existence of the Guardian, "The Guardian...... In other words, does it mean that those who are close to the king's tomb die? ”
"Well, the guardians guarding the mausoleum use strange spells." Gozzi nodded in agreement with what Boni and Tsukushi had said. Continued: "Let's cut to the bottom of the question. ”
"Recently, it has been rumored that the gold and silver treasures dedicated to that mausoleum were basically stolen from the Empire, including imperial tools created by the Empire."
"Red pupils", as the name suggests, red pupils, a very serious and heroic girl, ranked NO.7 in the assassination elite group. She pursed her lips in displeasure and asked, "Did they come to steal it on purpose?" ”
"Hmm." After answering the red pupil's question, Gozzi continued, "After all, they have a limited amount of tribute that they can raise themselves, and I don't think they can have such rich funds in this kind of land. ”
"So in order to meet the great king's tribute, do you find ways to increase the value of the tribute?" A man in an officer's uniform with a piercing gaze muttered a guess. His name is: "Nahasiu", and he is the eldest of these elite group members, and naturally he ranks NO.1 in the assassination elite group!
"So the Empire immediately sent investigators to investigate...... "Gozzi began to explain the reason for their mission, "and as a result he was brutally killed!" And the guardian of the mausoleum also left a message not to [do not approach the mausoleum]. ”
Gozzi stood up from the stone pier, snapped his fingers and finally announced, "Isn't it too much to steal our treasures and not let us get near the mausoleum?" ”
"Then you will go to Putra and fight against the grave keepers and take all your possessions. It is also a great task to save the financially troubled empire! ”
"Yes." Everyone responded passionately, with one of them, a burly man with a strange mask, having the loudest voice. His name is: "Guy", ranking No.2 in the elite group of the assassination unit.
"I'll work with Cornelia!" Guy clenched his fists and said as he swore an oath.
NO.1 TO NO.7, THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN SEVEN MEMBERS, BUT ONLY SIX APPEARED. And the NO.3 that didn't appear is a girl with outstanding physical skills, her name is: "Cornelia". In the Bailang River there was a battle with one of the members of the assassination group of the "Oberg Assassination Society" under the Revolutionary Army.
The members of the revolutionary army were named "Taeko", and in the end, Cornelia and Taeko fought with all their might, and in the end they both died.
Gozzi was very good at mobilizing the atmosphere, deliberately attracting the Imperial side to arouse the enthusiasm of the members. These young members have been nurtured by the empire since they were young, and their thoughts are also absolutely loyal to the empire.
"Actually, this wasn't your mission in the first place, another assassination team cultivated by the Imperial Capital has already gone there." Gozzi scratched his head helplessly and continued: "They sent an SOS signal, so we also have to go into the battle as reinforcements. ”
Akatomi's expression changed dramatically when she heard this, because her sister Black Hitomi was in another assassination team......
"Wait for me, Black Hitomi! Sister, come here! Red Hitomi also clenched her fists, looked in the northwest direction, and thought firmly.
......
On the other side, Longxi City.
Barbara, who was close to Gu Xuan, and Xia Nai, also set off for Putra.
"Master Barbara, what is our mission this time?" Because it is already in the wilderness, there is no need to worry about anything, Xia Nai asked suspiciously.
Barbara sighed, bent her back and said, "Chelsea came here to convey the news and tasks of the revolutionary army. ”
"This time the Imperial Raid Mausoleum, it is said that the general is also coming." Thinking of the power of the polar ice, Barbara, who had seen many winds and rains, also shuddered, and continued: "General Najiehitan has made contact with the revolutionary army, and took this opportunity to defect and go to join the alliance with the foreign peoples in the west. So we tried to delay the Empire's strategy in the mausoleum. ”
I see, Xia Nai nodded. She is a messenger of the main gods, and it took a while for her connections to join the Oberg Assassination Society and join Barbara's assassination team. Originally, she was still in the vigilant stage of not being trusted, but some time ago in the Bailang River, when Taeko, a member of the team, died. She stopped Barbara's irrational impulse for revenge, which amounted to death, and only then did she gain complete trust.
"Xia Nai, everything must be done with care. I've lived so long, old woman, but you're still so young! Barbara sighed, and the wrinkles on her cheeks seemed to increase again. Taeko is the apprentice she brought up since she was a child, and Taeko's death is not an ordinary blow to her.
"Yes, Master Barbara." Xia Nai could feel this sincere concern. Even if he has long been accustomed to life and death, and is used to killing, he responds to Barbara with a sincere tone. Although her purpose is different from that of the Delay Empire, she also covets the treasures of the mausoleum.
However, it is not bad for those who take advantage of the situation to kill some Imperial Army, and earn some contributions.
......
Gu Xuan, who was next to the mausoleum, had already ushered in the arrival of the tenth day. Sure enough, as Aegie said, the howling wind alone seemed to carry a touch of noise that was different from the past. He had been hiding, and he keenly sensed that a bunch of uninvited guests had appeared near the mausoleum.
These uninvited guests should be the Imperial Assassination Force Reinforcement Group, be careful, Gu Xuan did not immediately blend in, but waited for a long time, and the time came to night.
Probably because it had been settled for too long, when the mausoleum was invaded by outsiders, the vigils inside were more or less panicked.
Because of this, there was a loophole in the guardian of the door, and there was only a girl who looked very timid and scared.
Opportunity!
Gu Xuan gradually touched down from the cliff, ready to carry out his plan.
