Chapter Twenty-Nine: Judgment (Part II)
Atalanta's angry shouts interrupted Sander's words. Ignoring Kolanty's outstretched hand, her azure eyes left two bands of light in the night air that seemed to be the light that only appeared when the light moved quickly, and her speed was so fast that no one had time to stop it and in an instant she came to the back of the vampire of the Iron Keep, and the one-handed sword in her hand popped out of her robe like a poisonous snake, and the tip of the sword pierced into the back of Shande's heart accurately, and pierced through the chest along the gap in the ribs!
"Daring!" roared like a beast and accompanied by a galloping wind, the half-human, half-wolf monster grabbed the female swordsman's wrist with his thick claws before he could finish speaking!
"Jack!" two voices shouted the names of the wolfwalkers in unison, from Kolante and Andre. These two cries allowed Atta to avoid the danger of being killed by the wolf's kiss, for the time being. And the one who really made the female swordsman not be treated as a prisoner was the man in the gray robe.
"There's nothing to be nervous about, there's no silver in that sword. Otherwise, Shande's body would have turned into slag now. ”
The sword body slowly withdrew from the human body, leaving a conspicuous hole. In the light of the torches, everyone could see that a liquid like blood but thicker than blood began to flow out of the hole, like a spider web, which began to form a connection in the hole, and these cobwebs became more and more dense, and they braided the broken organs, blood vessels, and muscles, and it took less than a minute to repair the last broken piece of skin on the wound.
The vampire who was pierced through the heart by the sword took a deep breath, and then turned to look at Atta, who was still being grabbed by the wolfwalker's wrist, "Actually, what I was thinking was, if you told me to stop, why would I stab my heart? You know that in many stories, the protagonist can even say a long monologue in his lover's arms with the accompaniment after being pierced through the heart, and some even sing two lines. ”
It was not difficult to hear from Shande's words that he didn't seem to be so worried about the fact that he was almost killed. This is also normal, and the blood clan that has lived for more than a hundred years will rarely get angry because of physical injury. For them, the distinction between life and death is not as severe as normal creatures seem, and even many vampires consider accidental death as a kind of luck. But just because Sander wasn't angry didn't mean that the others could tolerate the actions of female swordsmen, especially the relatively fiery wolfwalkers.
"Kolanty, you'd better explain this lady's behavior. The head wolf's tone was not good, and he would not let this reckless person have a good time without a good explanation.
The witch reluctantly put two fingers to her forehead and sighed, "My dear Jack, you must understand the feelings of this young lady, who has witnessed the people of Sander tearing her fellow travelers to shreds. Think about it, what would you do if this happened to you, and someone in another trial was so protective of your companion's murderer?"
The wolfwalker's clenched palms slowly loosened a little in the midst of Kolanty's question. He lowered his head and stared at Atta with those two dark green eyes, "Take care of your sword, little girl, this is molten iron, and the Grand Guild will give you an explanation." Of course, if you find the outcome unacceptable, the glorious judgment is also the prevailing rule here. ”
By the time Jack actually let go of his claws, the female swordsman already had a visible red mark on her wrist. In fact, the moment he was caught by the Wolfwalkers, the force gave Atta the illusion that his wrist was about to be crushed. But even so, her hand holding the sword still didn't let go, and the hilt of the puzzler's sword was firmly grasped in her hand.
"Since you are okay with Shande, then this matter will be discussed later, and the trial will continue. The Grand Duke's words can be regarded as the end of this little commotion. It can be seen that Shande really didn't care about his assassination, as a hated blood clan, he encountered such a thing before he was exiled I don't know how many times, and there were many times when the other party still held a silver weapon in his hand. While all parties were still affected by the assassination, one person was aware of something else.
"Grand Duke, I have something to say. The voice coming from under the gray robe caught everyone's attention, and the female swordsman, who had just faced the wolfwalker's big mouth without showing fear, instinctively wanted to find something to hide when she heard the voice. Cheese may have noticed this detail, or maybe he didn't, it had nothing to do with what he was going to do next, "Shande's explanation just now is very reasonable, and I think it's because of this that the lady can't help but rush out and use violence to try to uphold what she thinks is justice." However, there is actually a premise in Shande's words, and if this premise is not clearly explained, his words are completely untenable. ”
"Cheese... Ah, well, whatever you want. As soon as the mage spoke, Sander's face changed, and by the time Cheese had finished speaking, the vampires of the Iron Castle knew that today's trial had nothing to do with him. The grey-robed man had found the door of the cover he had just spoken. However, in fact, Shande was not too angry because of this, but he felt a sense of relief.
"What do you mean by that?" the Grand Duke, as the presiding officer of this trial, is obliged to listen to the views of all sides. As a bystander, Cheese's views are also worth listening to.
"Sander just said that vampires kill people like hunters hunting wild beasts, and they do it for the sake of survival. However, we must understand that there are many hunters who hunt their prey and do not eat it themselves, especially the nobles. The nobility often went hunting, and the purpose of their hunting was probably just to enjoy the killing. Therefore, we must know what this foreign blood clan killed for, to fill his stomach, or to wantonly destroy human life with the mentality of crushing insects. If it's the former, then Sander's argument just now can be accepted, but if it's the latter, I don't think there should be any positive meaning in a race other than demons that have the quality of murder, right?"
And Sander was clearly aware of this, and the evidence was that the wound that had been pierced through the heart had healed before we could speak. But he pierced the throat of his fellow clan at the beginning of the trial, and he has no tendency to heal until now. I have to suspect that this was a precautionary measure to prevent the prisoner from saying anything against him. ”
