Chapter 113, the battle that can't be laughed and cried
readx; After drinking in the tavern, Ian did not choose to go back to his room to sleep, but left the tavern with a little drunkenness and walked down the long street. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Ian felt that he was a real failure, he grew up in the village, and became a good hunter because he liked hunting, but with his nature, he had no way to be a hunter for a lifetime, so after being called up by the legion, he did not hesitate to enter the legion to become a scout.
It's a pity that he can become a hunter with his interest, but he can't become a qualified soldier, and it didn't take long for him to be kicked out of the regiment by the non-commissioned officer, although it was embarrassing, but he still mixed up the identity of a militia.
And when he learned that the Blackclaw Bandits were pretending to be the army of North Sunderland, especially when he heard Mr. Erwin say that the same thing had happened in North Sunderland, Ian knew that his opportunity had come, and he might be able to use it to get rid of his ordinary life and live a colorful life from now on, which is why he was so eager to tell the Legion, the city defenders, and even his cousin.
It's a pity that the cruel reality makes Ian understand that this incident is not a happy benefit, but countless troubles, whether it is the group of servants in the convoy or the group of people who kidnapped themselves, everyone wants to know the truth of the matter from his mouth, and when they only pay attention to him because of this incident, they will not deliberately remember whether this militia is called Ian or Eir.
And even with his big personality, Ian could sense Erwin and Susan's boredom with him, even though they didn't say anything.
Negative and self-blame finally made Ian start to become decadent, he hid alone and drank alcohol, and then ran to the street in the middle of the night to watch the snow and the moon, the moonlight of the sand shield city is so peaceful and beautiful, but a huge sense of loneliness tightly envelops Ian, he desperately wants to meet one or two passers-by, but the whole long street is not even half a figure.
"By the way, Gegil, I still have such a relative, he will definitely not dislike my cousin, go and see him." Ian burped to himself and walked down the long street to the hotel where Gergill was staying.
"Is this it?" Ecilia looked up at the hotel where the murderer lived, a small three-story building, at least much larger than the one where the convoy lived, with the tavern at the bottom and the hotel with the lodging on the top two floors.
One of the two servants who followed Ecilia bowed his head and replied, "Yes, we have investigated, there are three of them, one of them is Gegil's cousin, and all three live on the second floor. ”
"Why is Gergil's cousin with a murderer?" Ecilia groaned, then strode into the tavern, ignoring the tavern hospitality that greeted her, and climbed up the stairs to the second floor.
There was an L-shaped corridor with rooms at intervals on either side, and it seemed that the servants were investigating very carefully, and one of them had already told Ecilia the location of the murderer's female accomplice.
The two servants planned to do it themselves, and let Ecilia take support in the back, but the girl did not come here specifically to watch the play, she refused the proposal, then drew her long sword, waved her hand to let the two servants form a simple encirclement at the door of the room, and then took a deep breath, reached out and knocked on the door.
"Who?" A somewhat muffled girl's voice sounded inside.
Ecilia shook her sword and made a gesture, and a servant next to her shouted loudly, "Miss, I am the hostess downstairs, please open the door." ”
Footsteps were heard inside, and there seemed to be no suspicion, and then the door clicked open, and a beautiful girl with a brown ponytail appeared from behind the door.
Ecilia was surprised by the girl's appearance, after all, the murderer had been completely demonized in her heart, and his accomplices must have been abominations, but she did not expect that it would be such a lovely and beautiful girl.
However, it is even more hateful to be a tiger with good looks, and Ecilia is also excited about it, because she finds that the girl does not have any weapons in her hands.
The next moment, Ecilia did not hesitate to send the long sword forward, of course, she did not intend to kill the girl directly, but planned to subdue her as a hostage.
Susan bandaged the wound on her shoulder and was about to go to bed, she was not unvigilant, but she didn't think that anyone would attack her, so when she opened the door and saw three strangers with weapons in hand, standing in front of a beautiful girl with a face larger than herself, the thought of surprise was left in her mind for a moment.
However, the difference in strength between the two sides is still a bit big, and Ecilia grabbed the first blow, which was still a little slower in Susan's opinion, she immediately recovered from her shock, and had no time to think about what these three guys were going to do, so she quickly dodged Aicilia's sword sideways, and at the same time raised her hand to grab her sword-holding wrist.
The two servants immediately rushed up, and two long swords slashed at Susan.
Susan gave up the idea of snatching the sword, and leaped backwards into the room.
The door of the room was not big, and the two servants could only rush in from the outside, one in front of them raised their long swords and swung a straight line to slash, and the snowy blade flashed a half-fan-shaped trajectory in the light, slashing directly at Susan's shoulder.
Susan, on the other hand, was like a good dancer, bouncing and jumping on the ground with both feet, and her body followed sideways to dodge the blow in a straight line, and at the same time reached out and grabbed Hu Cong's wrist and pulled it back hard, stumbling forward under her feet, and Hu Cong fell forward in the air, her strong body and heavy armor directly smashed the table in the middle of the room to the ground.
The other Hu had just rushed into the room at this moment, and he didn't stop his steps, and he sprinted directly at Susan, and the long sword took advantage of the momentum to swing a slanted slash.
Susan immediately retreated to avoid the blade, then quickly rushed forward, grabbed Hu Cong's sword-holding arm and pushed it hard, and at the same time swept his feet forward, and Hu Cong had already fallen to the ground on his back.
Instead, there were two servants, and before Susan could take a breath, the corner of her eye had already caught a rapidly approaching sword light, and she immediately lowered her head to dodge, but the sword light followed Susan like a shadow.
Ecilia was undoubtedly in a very excited mood at this time, and she kept using the fighting swordsmanship necessary for a trainee knight in her hand, and the sharp and fast sword strikes forced the two girls who easily took down the two servants to retreat again and again.
Fighting swordsmanship is one of the more advanced swordsmanship than legion swordsmanship, Susan, who lost the first move, couldn't do anything about her for a while, and in a blink of an eye, she saw that the two servants were about to get up from the ground, Susan couldn't continue the stalemate, and directly picked up the chair and smashed it towards Ecilia.
To tell the truth, Ecilia's strength is indeed higher than that of Hu Cong, after all, she has been trained and taught by regular knights, but because she has never really fought, although Ecilia's swordsmanship is sharp, but she lacks the ability to react on the spot, and Susan, who has experienced a lot of battles and has accumulated a considerable degree of experience, cannot be compared, if it weren't for the two Hu servants who covered for her just now, Acilia's regular attack method would not have posed any threat to Susan at all.
Seeing the chair smashing at this time, Ecilia was immediately stunned, not knowing what to do, and finally could only use a heavy sword slash to split the wooden chair in two, but Susan's figure had already chased the chair and quietly swooped down to Ecilia's side, and the action of snatching the sword in close range was completed in one go.
By the time the two servants got up, Susan had completely subdued Ecilia, and the long sword rested on her snow-white neck, looking at them coldly
"You're from that team, why are you doing this?" Susan recognized the armor on the two servants, and she couldn't understand why these people had acted like this, whether they wanted to take revenge for what happened in the village that night.
The two servants had already turned pale because Ecilia had been subdued, and they didn't know how to answer at this time.
Ecilia didn't show a panicked and scared look because she was subdued, although she now regretted her reckless move in her heart, but she didn't admit defeat, and said with a cold snort: "Why do you want to do this? You know it in your own hearts. ”
Susan was completely confused and inexplicable at the moment, and couldn't help asking, "I really don't know at all, can you be specific?" Little sister
"Who's your sister, please don't scream." Ecilia seemed to be very sensitive to this title, and said with a little emotion: "That man of yours...... What about male companions? Going out so late, is it going to the prom? ”
Ecilia originally wanted to talk about your man, but her education since childhood prevented her from saying such vulgar words.
Susan was stunned for a moment, and said to herself, is there anything to do with the two? Then thinking of what had happened in the past two days, she completely reacted, and said in disbelief: "You guys...... Think Erwin is the murderer? ”
"Isn't it?" Esilia turned her head to stare at Susan, a smug expression on her face, "Don't think you can hide it from everyone. ”
Susan was so angry and amused that she let go of her grip on Ecilia and returned the sword she had snatched.
Ecilia was completely confused by Susan's actions, and took her long sword in a daze, this situation was completely different from what she expected, shouldn't this girl be annoyed and angry when she heard that her identity was revealed?
Susan didn't care about the two servants next to her, she found a chair and sat down, in Erwin's words, she looked at Ecilia with stupid/forced eyes, and then stretched out her finger and pointed to the wound on her shoulder and said: "This is the wound left after the battle with him when I met the murderer just now, Erwin has gone after him now, don't tell me that the rest of your team went to ambush Erwin again?" ”
"Huh?" Esilia was completely dumbfounded.
