Chapter 124, Reckoning

readx; Erwin caught up with the man in black from behind, and as soon as he raised his hand to pat the other party's shoulder, he saw that the black man suddenly raised his hands from under his clothes, holding two dangling long knives in his hands, and slashed at a passerby next to him. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

This scene came so suddenly that the passerby who was targeted didn't have time to react at all, and watched the knife light slash down on his head.

But there was one other person present who reacted.

When the man in black raised his hands, Erwin instantly activated the iron swordsmanship skill, his body slammed forward, and hit the man in black the back with his shoulder, and the huge force directly knocked him forward, and the action of slashing at the passerby in his hand was also paused.

There was a loud crackling noise, and the man in black fell into the stall set up by a vendor on the side of the road, and directly smashed the bottles and cans on it.

The passer-by who had escaped because of this completely reacted, let out a frightened scream, and quickly ducked to the side.

And this scream completely attracted the attention of the entire night market.

The man in black struggled to get up from the ground, he felt as if he had been knocked off by a high-speed horse, and the sharp pain in his back that was still coming from him made his limbs a little paralyzed, and he couldn't even hold the two long knives in his hands.

The man in black shook his head, he was still a little unsure of the situation, but the attack from behind just now made him subconsciously turn around quickly, and saw a young man dressed as an adventurer standing in front of him, holding a long sword in his hand.

Erwin stared at the man in black with some confusion, he could see that although the person in front of him covered his face with a hood, the burly figure definitely did not belong to the dark and thin boy of Gergil.

When the man in black saw Erwin's appearance, he knew that the person who attacked him was this young man, and he raised the long knife in both hands, and rushed towards Erwin with a roar.

Erwin frowned, lowered his body directly, stepped on it hard, and the whole person sprinted out like an arrow from Xuan.

The two approached each other face to face, but unlike the man in black, who could see running on two feet, Erwin's movements seemed to others as a flash of light.

Before the black-clothed man's two long knives were wielded, the snow-bright sword light brought by the high-speed slash of the iron sword had already slashed through his ribs, cutting through his back, and the warm blood splashing out was like a blooming blood flower.

The figures of the two staggered.

Erwin straightened up, put his sword back into its scabbard, and when he turned around, the man in black had already taken two steps forward under inertia, and then fell to the ground with a thud, and his body that had been cut in two was also separated, and blood and internal organs were scattered on the ground.

Seeing this scene, Erwin subconsciously reached out and covered his ears.

Sure enough, the crowd of onlookers who did not know the truth around them, after seeing this bloody scene, immediately broke out into great panic, and the screams of fright rose and fell with each other.

Fortunately, after Erwin killed the man in black, he had no next move, so although there were many people around him, it was not enough to turn into a riot.

A few soldiers in charge of this section of the central area did not leave their posts without permission, and soon rushed to the night market when they heard the news, and began to identify themselves and reassure the masses, suppressing the possible panic at the beginning.

Erwin walked over to the man in black who had been torn apart by his sword, squatted down, reached out and ripped off the hood he was on, and just as he saw, the face under the hood was not Gegil, but a middle-aged man with a meaty face.

"Is this a coincidence? Or was it an accident? โ€

Erwin couldn't help but wonder, tonight was the first night they planned to stop Gergil's plan, but it happened that such a strange man in black came out to stir up the situation.

And judging from his actions just now, it was not a vendetta or anything like that, and it seemed that the innocent passer-by next to him was chosen at random.

Erwin was now extremely glad that he hadn't stayed in the center of Sand Shield City just now, but had wandered around the night market, otherwise, no one would have been able to stop the man in black when he raised the two long knives in his hands.

Once the men in black are allowed to kill in such a lively night market, it will cause 100% unimaginable panic.

And now Erwin wonders, where did this man in black come from? Why did he do it? Could it be that Gergil's companion is not successful?

Erwin pondered for a moment, and could only guess one answer in his mind - that is, as he had told Susan before, Rex was not safe with him, and he could not eliminate the demon's long ears, and the group of Finalists would be very interested if they knew about Gegil's guys, and would be willing to help him with this plan.

If this is the case, then Rex's side may not go well, and it will probably be much more difficult to catch Gergill tonight.

Erwin thought as he waved his hand to one of the soldiers who was calming the crowd and said, "Find someone to dispose of the body, and let these people go home sooner if they're okay." โ€

At this moment, the crowd of onlookers was hurriedly squeezed away by a young man, whose eyes scanned anxiously around the field, and then quickly caught Erwin's figure and hurriedly ran to his side.

Although Erwin didn't know this young man, he still had a little impression of him, that is, the Mirror Man spy who pretended to be a tavern entertainer in the hotel that night was one of Poruf's subordinates, and was sent to follow the hundred disguised soldiers, and Rex also told him that if there was any accident, he could inform Erwin as soon as possible.

When Erwin saw him appear, he knew that something unplanned must have happened, and sure enough, the young man rushed to Erwin's side and told him very bad news.

There are many men in black all over the city, killing people in crowded places to create riots and panic, and the soldiers in disguise play a little preventive role.

This is also a matter of course, a hundred soldiers are distributed in the more populated area of the entire Sand Shield City, which is originally overstretched, and this is still to deal with Gegil alone.

Now there are so many more men in black to create chaos, although Erwin's fight with the man in black just now is considered a second kill, but he can also judge the approximate strength of the man in black, which is quite close to an elite warrior.

The ordinary soldiers of the city defenders, let alone stop the men in black, I am afraid that it will be difficult to even eliminate the chaos.

And by the time the young man came to inform Erwin, the hundred soldiers had nothing to do, and the situation was rapidly getting worse, and the whole of Sand Shield City was almost beginning to panic.

After receiving the young man's notice, Erwin could only be glad that he had prepared a backup in advance, otherwise he would not only not be able to catch Gegill tonight, but would have been killed in a trap.

"You're in charge of contacting the soldiers so that they can disperse the crowd as quickly as possible and get everyone back to their homes." Erwin instructed the young spy, "If you don't need to communicate, use the power of your mirrored people to disperse the crowd as quickly as possible." โ€

The young spy was stunned for a moment, and his face became ugly, because he knew that this was an almost impossible thing to accomplish, and although Sand Shield City was small, it was also a behemoth to his spies who only numbered a dozen people.

Erwin naturally knew this, he was deliberately giving this group of people a clear goal, it didn't matter if it could be accomplished, because in this case, there was nothing else suitable for them to do, and it was better to have something to do than to spin around like a headless fly like now.

"So, what about you?" The young man asked hesitantly.

"Of course I'm looking for a chance to get rid of those men in black." Erwin replied, he saw the young man's hesitation and hesitation, and casually relieved, "Don't worry, as long as Rex guards the city gates, the situation won't get out of control." โ€

Although the young man was still a little hesitant on his face, when he thought of Rex telling them to obey Erwin's orders, he was not so resistant in his heart, and immediately nodded, turned around and ran to make arrangements.

Erwin sighed, and without further ado, he was going to start acting.

In what he said just now, he was not simply comforting the young man, but telling the truth, whether it was Gegil or this group of men in black, they wantonly killed people to create panic and riots, and their only purpose was to open the city gates.

And as long as Rex guards the city gates, then no matter how noisy this group of men in black is, they will not be able to withstand much turmoil.

After all, compared to the tens of thousands of people in the entire Sand Shield City, the number of men in black is still too small, even if there are ten or twenty, it is impossible to kill many people in a whole night, and it is impossible to force the city defenders to go out to quell the riot.

And even if they dare to concentrate to attack the city gate, they are afraid that they will be completely defeated in the end, after all, ordinary soldiers cannot be the opponent of the men in black who are close to the elite warriors, but with more than two hundred soldiers, the men in black have no obvious chance of winning, let alone Rex is still there.

Of course, it is impossible to continue to let them do whatever they want, Erwin can only temporarily give up his plan to arrest Gergil and get rid of these men in black first.

He activated his iron sword technique again, squeezing through the crowd and rushing towards the place where the men in black were raging.

When Shadun City was in a panic, the city gate was far away from crowded places, so it was not clear what was happening in the city for the time being.

In addition to the other necessary vigilance positions, the rest of the two hundred soldiers have completely guarded the vicinity of the city gate, and the nearby residential buildings have also been selected by the soldiers as guard points, monitoring all the roads near the city gate around them.

Rex rode his beloved blood-streaked horse to and fro near the city gates, having not long ago instructed Poluff to send two of the Mirrored Spies into the city to report back on any situation that had taken place in the city.

However, he had just heard what seemed to be going on in the inner city, but the Spy didn't come back to report anything, so Rex had to wait any longer.

Or rather, even if something really happens, Rex can't leave, he can only prepare as soon as possible.

"Lord Rex."

Poruf had been following Rex, looking up at Rex on horseback and asking, "Is it necessary to send so many people to deal with a murderer?" โ€

Rex glanced down at Poluf, he didn't have a good impression of the spy leader, compared to Mr. Hall, who was also in charge of the night stalker stronghold in Tรณrshavn, Poruf was far behind in every way.

But Poluf is not Rex's real subordinate after all, and he will listen to his orders because of his identity and orders from the high-level of the people in the mirror, so Rex can't really treat him as a subordinate.

"If it's just against Gergill alone, of course, I don't need to send such a big battle, maybe I can do it alone, but ......," Rexton continued, "We're not just going to deal with him, but some hidden enemies. โ€

Poluff was stunned for a moment, then understood what Rex meant, and with a look of disbelief on his face, he asked, "You mean that group of people?" But haven't we already eradicated them? Is there still a remnant party? โ€

"You're wrong Poluff, we're only getting rid of what we're trying to do......" Rex smiled, "the real enemies hiding in the darkness haven't shown their tails yet." Gegill is bait for both of us, they want to fish us out, and we want to fish them out, it's up to us to take it first. โ€

"So, does that Mr. Erwin know?" Poluf lowered his head and muttered for a while, and couldn't help but ask.

"Of course he knows, but this kid plans to watch a good show, and he won't tell me understand."

Rex thinks that Erwin is planning to watch a good show, but as everyone knows, Erwin doesn't have this hobby, he just wants Rex to suffer a little, and then have a good memory and restrain his overconfidence.

Poluff didn't expect there to be so many curves in it, and he couldn't speak for a while.

And at this moment, there was a sudden exclamation not far away, followed by the screams of a soldier.

In an instant, the entire soldiers near the city gate were alarmed, Rex pulled the reins of the horse, and the tall blood-streaked war horse immediately turned around and galloped towards the place where the screams were made.

The screams were heard in a residential building, where a soldier who had been hiding on the roof had fallen to the ground and was dead, and above his place stood a man in a black burqa.

The vigilant soldiers all around immediately surrounded him, and Rex had already arrived on horseback, he tightened his reins and looked up at the roof.

The man in black standing on the roof also looked at Rex's at the same time, and he suddenly reached out and pulled the hood off his head, revealing a somewhat dark and thin face.

Murderer Gergil.

He stared at Rex condescendingly, and then suddenly a mocking smile appeared on his face, and said in a loud voice: "Do you think I don't know, you set this clumsy trap to let me step in, you look down on people too much, right?" โ€

Rex didn't say anything, just muttered to himself: "This guy came here, did that kid Erwin miss?" โ€

"What? Nothing to say? Did I feel annoyed and angry after seeing through the conspiracy? As if on purpose, Gergill began to stimulate Rex with words.

Rex's grim face suddenly smiled, the same sarcastic smile: "You are wrong Gergil, this is not a trap for you, it can only be said that your own plan is too simple, we only need to guard the city gates, what can you do alone?" โ€

"Really? I don't know who you are or why you're targeting me, but you can keep your mouth shut. "As long as you can't catch me for a day, I may be able to give the army of North Sunderland outside the city a chance to capture Sand Shield City, and you can continue to guard the city gate like a turtle, and then guess if I can succeed." โ€

"Don't talk nonsense with him, Lord Rex, let me catch him."

Poluff, who had already arrived, shouted, and then, without waiting for Rex to reply, rushed forward, stepped on the window edge of the wall, and climbed onto the roof with his strength.

Rex didn't stop Poluff's movements, but watched with a blank face.

Poruf is an elite warrior in strength, and his ability to climb rooftops is smooth, and his weapon is a razor-sharp horned dagger with sharp serrations on one side and sharp serrations on the other, with triangular tips that can easily chisel through leather armor.

As soon as Poluff climbed onto the roof, he lunged at Gergil, slashing the dagger he held in his backhand into Gergil's chest.

Gergil's movements were swift as a ghost, easily dodging Poluff's dagger.

Poluff missed, and his left fist was already smashing over.

Gegil dodged sideways, reaching out with a foot and kicking it at Poluff.

Poluff also raised his foot and kicked it, and with a "bang", the feet of the two collided together, and the thin Gegil did not move at all, but the tall and burly Poluf was kicked by Gegill and fell backwards.

Gergil immediately rushed completely, the hem of his black burqa rising high with his hand, and in his hand he held a sharp short knife with the blade downward, straight into Poluff's chest.

Poluff was in the middle of a fall on his back, unable to dodge and was about to be hit directly by Gergil.

However, Poruf is not a simple person who can be the person in charge of the spy base, and seeing that he can't hide, he immediately stabs the horn dagger in his hand, as if he is going to die with Gergil.
