Chapter 17: The Scepter
The smell of blood in the air became more and more obvious, and Qiu Chen wrinkled the tip of his nose, but he smelled more of rouge. The streets below were full of people, and countless people were drunk here, and on the surface everything was so peaceful that no one would have thought that just now, the terrifying night attack passed by them
Someone was assassinated, but there was no obvious commotion in the streets, so it can be inferred that the building where the assassination took place was certainly not a building with a lot of traffic, but a stronghold type building with idlers not allowed to enter. Qiuchen didn't believe that the inhabitants of the imperial capital were nervous enough to step over without caring when faced with corpses
Following this inference, Qiuchen soon found an unusual building on the side of the street, compared to the lively scene in other shops and restaurants, although the two-story building was brightly lit, it could not hide the lifelessness of one of them, and there were two black-clothed people in suits and sunglasses standing at the door, looking like no one was allowed to enter. Moreover, the more you pay attention to this building, the more you feel that the smell of blood is coming from here
Taking advantage of the fact that no one around noticed the sky, Qiu Chen stepped on the roof tiles under his feet and jumped up, flew through the street with the help of inertia, grabbed the edge of the top of the opposite building in mid-air, and turned over and climbed onto the roof before the man in black below noticed that something was wrong
Patting the dust on his body, Qiuchen raised his eyes and saw a large hole in the roof that had been smashed open, and a faint light peeked out from the cracked roof. Qiu Chen stepped forward to lift the broken bricks, and underneath them were the wooden beams and the roof panels characteristic of Japanese-style rooms. The slab had been forcibly broken, and Qiu Chen could see that the room was in shambles, but he didn't hear footsteps or the sound of fighting
Jumping into the room, the strong smell of blood came to my face. But Autumn Dust, who had been on the battlefield of Azeroth for a long time, was used to it. The room was littered with downed guards, two guys who seemed to be the bosses were killed, and there was no sign of escape at the door. There were no bandaged wounds on the ground, which meant that the attackers of the Night Raid were not injured, and the whole battle seemed to be completely one-sided, and the guards were powerless to fight back against the members of the Night Raid, and they could not even hurt them
"Is it one step too late..."The man in black at the door is still there, which means that the night raider returned the same way after completing the assassination, and he is likely to be staggered from them. It's a pity that I couldn't find them
But Qiuchen was not discouraged, the Imperial Capital was very large, they definitely hadn't left the Imperial Capital yet, and with his Eye of Acherous, he should be able to find them in the streets and alleys
Touch----
Suddenly, the door to the room was forcibly slammed open. Qiu Chen took a step back and pulled out the Ash Messenger and assumed an attack stance, but after seeing the person who was coming, he breathed a sigh of relief, "Nero, you have found this place too"
"Yu is still a step slower" Seeing that the person in the room is Qiu Chen, Nero also put away the original fire "What to do next"
"I won't waste a chance to find them," Qiu Chen closed his eyes and began to look for traces of the night attack in the pictures transmitted back by the Eye of Acherus, and it didn't take long for him to find two girls in the eyes of the clock tower near a park, one of them was Hill on the wanted notice, and their voices were also heard in the picture, although the distance was relatively small, but Qiu Chen could still hear what they were saying
It's as if the pink ponytail is complaining about a target named Zibul being too cautious, and Ciel is reassuring her that she can solve the target perfectly
Seeing this, Qiu Chen let out a long sigh, as long as he could find the figure of the night attack, he could catch up with them in the imperial capital. Since they were with Ciel, the other one must also be a member of the Night Raid, and it would be many days before they could finally be found
But then, after seeing the figure of the third person rushing into view, Qiu Chen instantly felt not good. Seleuc. Yubikitas is armed with the Imperial Gear and is stopped by the hundred-armed giant she calls Xiaobi to Hill and Mayne
Oh my God, you're rushing out at this time to make a mess!
With Qiuchen's understanding of Saileu's character, once she fights with the members of the Night Raid, it will definitely be either you die or I will die, which is not the result he wants to see
"Let's go Nero, there's something to do" Qiu Chen noted the location of the park in his heart, opened the window and jumped out of the already empty stronghold, Nero followed. Outside, no one noticed the figures shuttling between the rooftops, and in everyone's eyes, everything was still so peaceful, as if nothing had happened
"Nero, how many people can you pull in your inherent enchantment" quickly crossed the rooftops, Qiuchen chose the nearest road, a straight line to walk over, the buildings in the upper city of the imperial capital are almost two-story attics, plus the distance between the houses is not large, it is much faster to rush on the houses than to follow the crooked streets
"Yu can pull up to a thousand people, but there is no way to guarantee how long it will last under the limit" Nero explained behind Qiu Chen, "The Golden Theater was designed with a thousand spectators in mind when it was built, and the same is true for the enchantment" The wind howled on the roof, coupled with the noise of high-speed movement, but Qiu Chen could still clearly hear Nero's words
"You don't need to pull many people, you only need to pull in one or two people accurately" The strength of Sai Liu's two night raid members Qiu Chen is not clear, and it is difficult to say which side can win in the case of two against one. Be prepared with both hands at all times "Especially in a melee, can you pull people accurately"
"Are you underestimating my strength?" Nero smiled haughtily, "I am the emperor, there is nothing I can't do"
....... why can't help but want to shake her black history when he sees Nero proud. Oh~ I don't think I've developed any bad habits
But as soon as he thought of what he had to do, Qiu Chen still pressed the sarcasm that almost came out of his mouth back to his heart, and it was not good to play too much and stimulate Nero
"Very good, that's no problem" Qiu Chen snapped his fingers, as long as there was no problem on Nero's side, he didn't need to risk being found out and rush out to interrupt the battle. The day after taking out Zanke, Qiuchen found that there were more sneaky figures near the Lion King's Pride, and his goal was the main god space, not to conflict with the aborigines, and it was not good to attract too much unnecessary attention
"Qing ...... I didn't say anything" Hearing Qiuchen just respond simply, Nero glanced at Qiuchen with some incredulity, "I'm ready to listen to new rumors, it seems that there are only a few rumors"
…… I just don't want to say it
By the time Qiuchen and Nero arrived, the battle had taken a turn for the worse, with the pink ponytails seemingly having lost their combat effectiveness and falling to the ground, while Ciel's upper body was being grasped by the hundred-armed giant who looked like he had gone berserk......
Hey! What's the situation with the upper body! Qiu Chen's face was choked. Two to one was also counter-killed, will you play! Don't die! It's a hassle to go to hell again! And I just ran to hell yesterday to ask for a soul.,I finally escaped under the bombardment of Shiji's preaching.,Do you want to go again tonight?! Even if there is a reason, but ......
Next time, I really won't be preached to the point of being in a trance and then fall into the Santu River halfway?
"Nero!"
"I'm ready!" The primordial fire was inserted into the ground, and Nero held aloft with one hand, "Witness the rest of the talents!" Hear the applause of Wan Lei! With the glory of the rulers in your heart! Bloom like a flower! Let's open! A golden theater of swaggering!! ”
