Chapter 65: The Executioner
ββ¦β¦ Sirens. Romney was the first high-ranking official to be executed by the cavalry, and over the past few years, official reports have stated that he was sentenced to death when he was a knight chief, dissatisfied with the Privy Council's interference in the command of the cavalry, and tortured and killed a member of the Privy Council. However, according to recent disclosures, the Sirens. It is likely that Romney was implicated in the ACA at that time, which raises doubts about Marvin, who issued the execution order. Did Greg already betray the cavalry at that time......"

"So, Professor Boken, aren't you going to change your mind?"
The white marble floor tiles at the entrance to the main room in Bokenshi's YΓ n room have been covered with blood flowing everywhere, and the blood spreads along the MIT emblem on the floor, forming an abstract trajectory.
The middle-aged man in a black trench coat pulled his long sword out of the heart of one of the Rohms TFs in front of him, bringing out a stream of blood.
"Oh, ma'am, it's not a good habit to move."
The middle-aged man turned around, showed the revolver in his right hand, aimed it at Xia Xuefei's subordinates who were leaning against the wall, smiled slightly, and then directly pulled the trigger.
The girl, who had already had one of her arms cut off and was carefully trying to reach the electromagnetic pistol in a pool of blood with her only remaining left hand, was pierced through the shoulder by a large-caliber bullet, and the girl snorted and was hit by the massive impact of the bullet against the wall.
"Well, Professor Boken, do you think that if I'm not here, these Romans TFs will let you go, or your research results?"
The middle-aged man in black turned his head to look at Professor Boken standing in the corner. With a flip of his right hand, the magazine of the special revolver was thrown out to the right, and six yellow, high-strength plastic shells fell to the ground.
This pistol, which uses a chemical liquid to propel a charge, uses an electric ignition to ignite a primer to fire bullets, which is enough to inflict heavy damage on the TF at close range, however due to the huge recoil. Therefore, only TF can be used.
"I don't have much to say to you, go to hell."
Professor Boken stood in the corner of the room, staring indifferently at the black knight in front of him, not even with an angry expression, his trench coat in his hand, as if he was going to leave for the next class in a few minutes.
"Sure enough, as the adults said, even if I torture you, you won't give me what I want."
The man in the black trench coat didn't seem to be surprised or unhappy, he just walked slowly to the door of the computer room. Stretched out his hand and knocked on the door of the computer room that several TF teams could not violently destroy, "The quality is good." β
"It's a pity that the Lord knows you too well, Lawson. Boken, you had the opportunity to join this great program. β
The man in the black trench coat said, walked over to the main gate, and then spoke to himself. While installing a small device on the control panel of the door lock.
And Professor Boken's face standing by the door instantly turned pale.
"You're Marven...... Marvin. Greg...... People of ACA!! β
"That's right. Looks like you're finally realizing the problem. The man in the black trench coat nodded, lowered the gun to his waist, and lifted it up, and six special revolver rounds were loaded into the magazine, and he closed the magazine with his hand, and he glanced at the screen that had begun to show the progress of the cracking. A grim smile was revealed.
"The Boken encryption method that you are proud of has actually been cracked by adults a long time ago, and the genius in this world is not the only one in that little girl."
"You're still old, Rosen. Boken. Your failure is due to your refusal to touch something greater, twenty years ago when you did not join the ACA, and at that time, you lost the opportunity to be in the company of the greatest knowledge in the world, with the truth of this world, and what you are proud of now, in the Great Library, in front of that adult, is simply like a child's play. β
ββ¦β¦ He won't make it...... He doesn't understand ...... at all"
Professor Boken's body trembled, and he clearly saw that behind the middle-aged man, the encryption algorithm in the computer room was being cracked little by little.
"Perhaps, but you can't see it."
The man in black smiled lightly, raised his pistol without warning, and pulled the trigger at Professor Boken's left thigh!
The massive impact of the bullet directly broke the old professor's left leg, and at the same time flew backwards with his body, slamming into the wall.
"Losing too much blood might be a good way to die."
Before the words fell, the man in black looked at Professor Boken, who had fallen into a coma due to severe pain and heavy blows, and was about to replenish the gun again, when the control platform behind him made a crisp sound, even Herris needed to crack the protective door of the main engine room of Boken Shi yΓ n room for more than twenty minutes, and was killed by Marven in two minutes. Greg's cracker is broken.
The man in black walked directly into the computer room, and with a wave of his left hand, the sharp knight's sword split the shell of the server, inserted the revolver in his right hand into his waist, and then took out a hard disk and put it in the pocket on the inside of the trench coat.
"You crawled back from hell?"
Just as he was about to turn to leave, suddenly, a deep voice, with irrepressible anger, came from behind the man in black.
ββ¦β¦ I'm also surprised to see you. β
The middle-aged man in the black trench coat was silent for a moment, but immediately turned around and looked at Payne, who was holding the hilt of his sword in his left hand, "Especially at this time, on this occasion." β
"I'm not surprised at all." Payne shook his head slightly, "After all, your execution order is Antonio. Servette Application, Marvin. Greg's self-righteous jackal, and self-proclaimed clever viper, you are a useful pawn for anyone. β
"Right, the legendary former Knight Chief, the Siren who was shot for shooting his colleagues.' Executioner'. Payne slowly reported the name of the man in the trench coat, "Forty-two years old, one hundred and eighty-seven centimeters tall, ninety-eight kilograms in weight, a meat system TF, a one-handed swordsmanship, armed with a knight's long saber and a custom revolver...... Now for Marvin. Greg, that is, ACA work. β
"First of all. I'm going to correct that I weigh ninety-six kilograms now. β
Romney spread his hands and corrected the pointless question, "And then, you have to understand that the ACA is just a springboard on our path to truth." It's no different from the cavalry, don't make it look like we're working for Char, the Virgin King. β
"It makes no difference to me." Payne shook his head expressionlessly, "You're not on my execution list because you're long dead, and I don't mind sending you back where you're supposed to be." β
"Then you have to do it, Mr. Pain (note 1)," Romney shook his head, then raised his right pistol and aimed it at Payne's head. "Didn't you see the bodies of those three unlucky people when you came in?"
"I will return this sentence as it is."
Payne looked at the muzzle of Romney's gun and curled the corners of his mouth slightly.
In the next second, a violent explosion came from all around, and the entire building shook violently for several seconds!
Herris's drone has arrived!
After the three drones carrying anti-tank missiles took off from Helis's home, they flew directly in the direction of Boken's room, almost at the same time as Payne, who deduced that Romney was using a microwave jamming device. Herris immediately launched a search and determined the location of the jamming device.
Then. Under Payne's command, destroy all sources of interference!
At the same time, at the moment of the explosion, Payne, who had been prepared, also pointed to the ground on tiptoe, holding the hilt of the sword in his right hand and rushing towards Romney.
It must be preemptive!
Penn and Romney are contemporaries, and they were both the first to follow Speaker Rasmussen. The difference is that Payne was Speaker Rasmusson's subordinate when he was an officer in the League, while Romney was a good friend of Marvin.
When Marvin became the chief scribe of the cavalry, he invited Romney, who served in the Confederate Navy and was already the first mate of a destroyer, to join the cavalry. After undergoing reformation surgery, Romney successfully joined the cavalry and became a knight commander - however, the slight difference was that the knight commander was not the commander of the cavalry as he is today, and had no actual command authority, and Romney acted as an instructor on the larger scale.
But precisely because he is an instructor, he must have extremely strong combat effectiveness.
Payne had fought Romney a few times almost a decade ago, and both sides had won and lost each other, and Payne's fighting methods were in their own right, and they didn't need Romney's teaching like those recruits, so the two didn't have much to do with each other.
As a top TF with rich combat experience, Romney obviously also thought that Payne would inevitably attack at this time, so he took a step back to stabilize his body and swung his long sword directly in Payne's direction!
Gold and iron struck, and Payne suffered a small loss.
One blow can't distinguish the difference in the combat effectiveness of the two, after all, the competition of swordsmanship is not a simple collision of strength, but also a contest of agility and judgment, but a collision made Payne quickly retreat.
It's not that there is a lack of strength, it's that Payne took the initiative to retreat.
"I wanted to have a good fight with you, but today is obviously not the right time, and I think you should be a lot better than that little kid from Sauron."
Romney shook his head, while Payne held his sword and looked at each other coldly.
A deep crack had already appeared on the long sword in his hand, where it had intersected with the opponent's weapon just now.
Payne's knight's saber is not a black technology weapon, but it can be regarded as an extremely excellent Reykjavik alloy, but obviously, the opponent's long sword is even better.
"Who do you think is in the hands of A. Lange & SΓΆhne alloys?" Romney glanced at Payne's longsword, and then at his own, "By the way, Master Greg has broken through the limitation that Lange alloy can only be synthesized in the universe, the new formula can be synthesized in the deep sea, and under the effect of water pressure, the second-generation Lange alloy has a stronger level." β
"We should meet again soon, and hopefully you'll bring a better weapon by then." Romney raised his pistol and shook it at Payne, then suddenly tiptoed and rushed straight at Payne!
Payne didn't dare to touch it hard, so he could only dodge it, but the moment he made this move, he regretted it.
Romney flashed him directly, rushed out of the door of the computer room, and at the same time, raised his pistol and aimed it at Professor Boken, who was lying on the ground and fainted!
"Bastard!"
Payne gritted his teeth and rushed straight at Romney, who had a wicked grin after the plot had succeeded.
The gunshots rang out, not hitting Professor Boken's forehead as Romney had intended, but grazing the professor's shoulders and tearing off a large chunk of flesh.
The moment Romney raised his gun, Payne rushed in front of him, and this time Payne slashed at Romney's sword with the long sword in his hand without reservation.
With a flick of his wrist, Romney slid the blade into the crack left by the collision with Payne's sword just now, Payne's long sword broke in response, and Romney's weapon slashed directly into Payne's chest after cutting off Payne's blade!
The alloy soft armor that lined Payne's clothes prevented Payne from being cut in two, but it also left a deep wound.
However, Payne did not stop.
He held the broken blade and stabbed it directly into Romney's eyes!
Note 1: Bruce. Payne's surname is spelled Penn, which is a homonym for pain (to be continued......
