Chapter 548: Captive
"Stop, don't run, tell me, what kind of person are you"!
While quickly increasing her speed under the arc, Claire questioned "Smile" loudly.
But Smiling, who was working hard to run the shadow energy, didn't intend to answer Claire's question at all, of course, she couldn't follow Claire's advice to stop obediently, as a fugitive, "Smile" gave full play to her childhood escape skills as a thief, such as quickly changing direction, jumping over obstacles that might slow down the enemy, such as picking on uneven ground and running wildly, and pouring out inky shadow energy like no money, "Smile" I just felt that my lungs were about to burn under the rapid breathing.
But...... Claire, who was chasing after "Smile", was not only left behind, but the distance between him and the girl in front of him was getting closer and closer!
It turns out that having skills is much more powerful than simply pouring energy, under the effect of the apprentice-level fighting skill "electric light acceleration", the fighting energy that turns into an electric arc fully stimulates Claire's muscles, and the charge wrapped around the apprentice knight's body is also increasing the speed of the young man a little bit, even if Claire is chasing a stalker who is good at speed, but Claire, who is chasing after the "smile", still has no intention of being left behind.
After all, what the stalker is good at is hiding and exploding, and it is obviously unrealistic to compete with knights in terms of endurance, especially Claire's fighting spirit is incomparably strong, and the little shadow energy of "Smile" is already pitiful, so that in less than thirty seconds, Claire is already about to catch up with "Smile".
"It's over"!
Feeling the fluctuations of the fighting spirit getting closer and closer behind her, the smiling sweaty face couldn't help but show a wry smile, she knew that she couldn't run anymore, Claire chasing behind her didn't look tired at all, and she herself really felt the weakness of her soul.
Sure enough, after three seconds, the last bit of shadow energy of the smile was completely depleted, and Claire, who had found the right time, caught up with the "smile" who had lost his speed with a sprint!
"Bang"!
The dense dust slowly rose on the tundra of the night with a violent impact, and with all her might, Claire directly pressed her smile to the ground, and due to inertia, the two of them almost rolled on the tundra several times before barely stopping.
Claire clearly has a good track record of hunting, and even after a violent tumble just now, he can still keep "Smile" on top of him.
The young man with a serious expression didn't care about his moss-covered armor at all, he immediately poured a large amount of fighting energy into the body of "Smile" and strictly forbade any trace of shadow energy fluctuations in "Smile" body, and then, Claire, who locked the joints of "Smile" hands with her hands, shouted to the girl under him and asked:
"Why are you running away, are you really an accomplice to evil"?
Claire's "righteous words" shook the ears of "Smile", feeling the shadow energy in his body that could not work at all, and "Smile" also clearly realized that the stalker without the shadow energy was just a powerless child, and now that he was banned from fighting spirit, it was impossible for him to make any waves.
Of course, "Smile" was not stupid enough to be captured and honestly answered all the questions of the enemy, even if Claire used a cold blade across his neck, "Smile" still did not give up any chance.
As soon as Claire's words fell, the smile that had been holding her wrist turned her head sideways, and then, the girl with tears in her eyes ignored the big sword next to her neck and said to Claire:
"You...... What the hell are you doing, you chased after you without saying anything, and now you actually treat your concubine with such rudeness...... Hurry up...... Hurry up and let go of your hand, your wrist hurts to death!"
"Smile" at this time The expression is really vivid, whether it is the sincere eyes full of crystal tears or the slightly twitching little Qiong's nose, it has created the appearance of a young lady who does not know the world, and even her pupils reflecting the sharp blade of the big sword still have a little fear that does not match the barbaric language, and all kinds of details also fully show a "tsundere girl" who suppresses fear and strengthens face in front of Claire.
But Claire's voice was still very harsh:
"Don't be clever, what the hell do you have to do with that evil mage and evil knight!"
Although Claire admits that the girl she faces at this time is just a noble lady who dares to come out with some curiosity without knowing anything, Claire, who has experienced a lot of "punishing evil and promoting good" with Odore Linda, is not so good that she believes in the "enemy" who is still desperately running away last second because of a sentence or two and a tear or two.
But since she really couldn't see any sense of disobedience or something wrong with the expression of "Smiling", Claire, who didn't want to blame the innocent, continued to quietly move her big sword away while shouting and asking, and at the same time, after hearing the tearful plea in "Smiling's eyes", the young man who was pitiful also loosened his fingers holding "Smiling" wrist slightly.
Claire's behavior is very secretive, generally speaking, a person who is caught in the neck with a knife will still be in the mood to observe the small details of the "murderer", but ...... "smile" is obviously not an ordinary person, the calm girl found Claire's small movements for the first time, which also made the already a little desperate "smile" find a chance to survive.
So, after struggling hard several times in pretending to be angry, the "smile" with red eyes said in an unpretentious voice "angry" "complaining":
"What are you going to do? First, the two villains grabbed the concubine, and threatened the concubine to open the family's treasury, and now the concubine finally ran out while they were not paying attention, and the result was ...... As a result, do you also want to persecute the concubine and torture the concubine, don't you think, the concubine will not give in"!
As she spoke, the smiling and struggling movements became more intense, and she looked like an angry kitten tied up, at least in Claire's opinion, the girl in front of her was really about to cry at this time.
"Am I mistaken...... Is she really just an innocent victim".
Thinking like this, the slightly guilty boy finally stopped holding down the "smile" and remained motionless, and at the same time he stood up and inserted the big sword in his hand back into the scabbard.
However, Claire, who was still a little vigilant, still clenched one of the wrists of "Smile", and his fighting spirit still blocked any bit of shadow energy in the girl's body.
After all, on the way to travel with the female knight, Claire has also seen a lot of villains who pretend to be stupid and plan to fool around, although compared to those crappy villains, everything shown by "Smile" has no sense of disobedience, but Claire still does not let her guard down so easily.
So, Claire, who couldn't tolerate the misplacement of evil and couldn't tolerate the misplaced good people, raised her head and said to the "smile" seriously after a little thought:
"Hmm...... This swamp is too dangerous, and those two wicked men may come back at any time, so to be on the safe side, I'll take you to another companion first!, and then ...... Believe me, my guru will correctly distinguish between evil and good, and she will protect you from evil!"
"Huh...... Hehehe, that...... That's great, haha...... Hahaha".
After listening to Claire's words, "Smile" almost used all her strength to force herself to laugh, during which she also pulled her right hand hard, but Claire's fingers that clenched "Smile's" wrist were as strong as copper cast iron, and when she couldn't use the shadow energy, "Smile" wanted to pull her wrist out of Claire's hand, no doubt...... No way!
