readx; It was rare that there was no snow tonight, and the streets seemed to be a little more crowded, but the crowd did not fill the atmosphere with excitement - under the pressure of the North Sunderland army outside the city, panic had spread throughout the city of Sand Shield, affecting everyone's mood.

Everyone has a subtle gloomy look on their faces, even when they meet acquaintances and friends to talk and laugh, they will inadvertently sigh, as if there is a heavy dark cloud pressing on the sky above Sand Shield City, pressing on the hearts of everyone in the city, under this similar precursor to the coming of disaster, everyone's nerves are tensed, and it seems that even the air has become a little colder.

Gil, dressed in a black smock, was walking slowly along the long street, following the flow of people.

Today he spent a whole day, and he had memorized the main roads and a large part of the streets and alleys of the entire Sandshield City, and selected a few places that could be used to kill people and cause chaos.

Erwin and Rex guessed correctly, Gegil is only one person, and if he wants to open the gates of the city defenders, then he only has one way to kill people and create chaos, after all, he was originally just a country boy who didn't know anything, even if he merged with Osmond, at most he would become a cunning murderer, what changed was his personality, words and deeds, and EQ and IQ would not increase significantly in the short term.

However, if the city defenders were unprepared, there was a good chance that Gegil would be able to succeed, but now that they had been informed and prepared, if Gegill still carried out his original plan, then he would not have the possibility of success.

And Gegil didn't know about this, and now he still followed the plan he had set, and after keeping in mind a few good locations, he began to choose the best path, which could ⊥ him to run to the city gate as fast as he could after causing chaos, and then take the opportunity to open the city gate and let the army of North Sunderland break through the city.

The thought that the whole of Sand Shield City might tremble under the iron hooves of North Sunderland's army, and the cries of despair and pain from countless people, made Gergil tremble with excitement.

At this moment, a pedestrian with hurried steps suddenly appeared in front of Gegil, and rushed towards Gegir as if there was something urgent.

Gegill realized that if he didn't dodge, the two would definitely bump into each other, and subconsciously, his steps twisted slightly and dodged to the side.

According to Gegil's feeling, the other party should pass by him, but when the other party rushed in front of Gegil, he also seemed to find him in front of him, and also made dodging moves.

With a slight "bang", the collision between the two was not very serious, and the other party was not so much rushing and running, but just walking briskly.

Gergil paused for a moment, he was a little strange, but before he could take a closer look at the other man, he felt as if something had suddenly been stuffed into his hand.

He was taken aback and quickly raised his head, but the person who hit him had quickly disappeared into the crowd, like a prey being chased by a hunter.

Seeing that many people around him were already paying attention to this, Gegil didn't have time to think about it, pulled the hood of his blouse, and then hurried out of the street with his head down.

After turning into a remote alley, by the faint light from the window of the house next to him, Gergil spread out his clenched palms, on which a pale yellow mass lay quietly.

It was given to him by the man who had hit him just now, and Gergil looked at the mass close to his eyes, only to realize that it was a crumpled ball of paper.

Slowly opening the lump of paper, it was a palm-sized piece of yellow paper, with small characters written on both sides.

Despite having guessed that it would be a word, Gegil was stunned for a moment, and then looked pained.

He was illiterate.

As a country boy and an orphan, Gergil could not have been given the opportunity to learn at all.

If it had been before, Gegil would probably be helpless and didn't know what to do, but now that he has grown a lot, such a simple thing is no longer difficult for him.

Fold the paper and hide it on his body, Gegil left the alley and returned to the street.

Half a moment later, Gergil was back in the middle of nowhere, and unlike before, he now had a young man with a frightened face on his hand.

Throwing the young man in the corner of the wall, Gegil took out the paper from his body, handed it to the young man, and whispered, "Read it to me, if you make a mistake, I will kill you." ”

The young man hesitated and took the paper in fear, he was walking on the road, this mysterious man suddenly appeared and asked him if he knew how to read, he subconsciously replied that he knew, and was brought here directly, and he didn't even have time to call for help.

Opening the folded paper, the young man opened his eyes wide to make out the words on it, and then read it out word by word: "The city and the city defenders have received information ...... the city."

Before the first sentence could be finished, the young man's voice stopped abruptly as if he had been choked by the throat, his eyes widened, and his face began to turn pale, because the contents of the paper were so frightened that he could not speak.

Gegil suddenly approached the young man's eyes, a pair of beastly scarlet eyes stared at him, and a cruel smile rose at the corner of his mouth: "Keep reading......

This night was not destined to be an ordinary quiet night, more than 300 city defenders did not rest, but almost all of them were dispatched, except for a hundred disguised and mixed into various parts of the Sand Shield City, the remaining 200 soldiers under the leadership of Rex guarded near the city gate, ensuring that Gegil did not have any chance to open the city gate.

On the other hand, Erwin also began to prepare in the hotel, of course, he had nothing to prepare, after recuperating his spirit and concentrating, he went out with the iron sword.

He knew very well that if Gergil really intended to create an opportunity by killing people and causing chaos, he would have to take advantage of the fact that it was still early, and the inhabitants of the city had not yet returned to rest.

If it was in the dead of night, and there was no figure on the street, then no matter how much Gegil killed, it would not be possible to cause chaos.

Therefore, during the period just after nightfall, it was the liveliest of the night in Shadun City, and it was also the only chance for Gegil to make a move.

Erwin planned to go to the center of Sand Shield City, so that he would be able to get there as soon as there was a riot anywhere.

Valker was a junior in the city's defenses, and at this time in the past, he had probably begun to rest after dinner, but now he was in high spirits, for this morning and afternoon the entire team of 100 had slept under the warm bed, to make sure that they would not be too sleepy and tired to concentrate at night.

That's right, the hundred-man team that Valk is in is the hundred soldiers who blended into the residents after dressing up in disguise tonight, but the so-called disguise is just changing that soldier's uniform, after all, in a small place like Sandun City, three hundred soldiers are locals, and there are few residents in the entire Sandon City who don't know them.

The change of clothes is just to confuse the caravans from other places, and the goal of tonight.

On the way, Valker met several acquaintances who greeted him and asked him why he didn't go to duty, and Valker prevaricated with a rare rest holiday, and as for their complaints that "the army in North Sunderland is just outside the city gates, you still have the heart to rest", Valker assumed that he could not hear it, and he could not explain it to unrelated personnel anyway.

As for tonight's goals and actions, to be honest, Valker didn't know very well, and the captain of their team of centurians didn't explain why, only told them that there might be a murderer who was planning to cause a riot.

Therefore, the only thing that the soldiers who blended into the crowd had to do was to identify themselves as soon as the riot broke out and try to eliminate the riot to ensure that it did not cause panic and riots that spread throughout the city.

After all, North Sunderland's army was blocked outside the gate of Sand Shield City at this time, and the nerves of almost everyone in the city were already tense, and perhaps the slightest stimulation would cause unpredictable consequences.

Of course, as an ordinary soldier who can't read big words, Valk naturally doesn't have so much vision and knowledge, he just thinks that the commander's behavior of asking them to do this is simply a blind toss, although he is not sleepy, but it is still very uncomfortable to wander outside in such a cold weather and blow the cold wind.

After walking around the area he was in charge of several times and didn't find anything unusual, Valker, who was shrunk by the cold wind, reached out and touched his pocket, and found that there were still a few Thor left, so he planned to go to the tavern to have a few drinks to warm his body.

He didn't think that Sand Shield City would really break out into a riot as the chief said.

There was a small tavern in Valker's area, and by the time he got there, it was already overcrowded.

If there is a group of people who put the least pressure on the North Sunderland army, then it must be the drunkards, as long as there is alcohol to drink, even if it is a knife to the neck.

Valk managed to find a place in the corner, and before the hosts could bring the wine to him, Valk found several soldiers from the same centurion as him among the staggering drunkards.

The guys did the same as he did, and they left their tasks and ran to drink.

Several soldiers silently raised their glasses to Valker, and then completely indulged in the anesthesia of alcohol.

"Aren't these guys afraid that the captain will kick them in the ass with his leather boots?" Valker scoffed, he was still in his area of responsibility, and the others had already left their posts without permission.

"Whatever the hell though...... Marker muttered, then tilted his head and poured a large sip of the ale that had been brought to him.

While Valker was drinking, on the other side of Sandshield City, Erwin was enduring the cold wind in his face, and his lips seemed to crack open.

Of course, this is just an illusion, with Erwin's current physical fitness, it is impossible for his skin to crack because of this, he doesn't even feel cold, but the past feeling makes him feel that it should be very cold now, which can be seen from the pedestrians shivering after the cold wind blows around.

Although Erwin was guarding the central area of Sandshield City, he did not find a place to stand still like an idiot, but patrolled back and forth on several nearby streets.

The land he chose happened to be the most prosperous and lively part of Shadun City, close to the small square that was used as a trade market by merchants, and it had miraculously developed into a small night market during this time, with many people coming here to do a little business, and there was an endless stream of residents shopping and loitering.

If Gergil wants to cause a riot, this is one of the best locations for him.

Erwin walked around and came to the night market, the lively atmosphere around him made him see a trace of belonging to a big city, maybe for Elend, trade and floating population are the basis for the success of a city, these caravans forced to come to Sand Shield City, it only took a few days to create a trace of prosperity in Sand Shield City, if it can last for a long time, it is not impossible to turn Sand Shield City into a rich and prosperous city.

However, Erwin knows very well that this is impossible, the geographical location of Sand Shield City is too poor, as long as the military conflict between the two kingdoms on the Iron Hoof Plain is over, then Sand Shield City will probably be immediately beaten back to its original shape, after all, if the Iron Hoof Plain can be passed, even if the bandits are rampant, no caravan will deliberately take a long detour to the remote Sand Shield City.

With inexplicable thoughts in his mind, Erwin wandered around the small night market, getting rid of two little boys who were carrying baskets and selling candles and snacks.

However, a little girl selling delicate handmade trinkets caught Erwin's attention.

He swore that he definitely didn't notice the little girl because she was very cute and cute, but when he looked up at the little girl looking up at him, her big black and bright eyes were shining with water, and then he asked in a timid and soft voice: "First, sir, do you want to buy jewelry?" ”

Erwin felt as if his heart was about to melt, Loricon's soul was awakening, and then driven by impulse, he picked up the little girl, regardless of her panic and sobbing, laughed and said: "Uncle buy them all, and then take you to see the goldfish and the turtle"

All of this was just Erwin's imagination, and he smiled and touched the little girl's head, though the latter pouted and didn't look very happy, and then picked out a very beautiful handmade necklace from her little basket to give to Susan.

Selling the necklace for twice the price, Erwin's mood was not bad, especially when little Lori finally left with a smile and shouted brother, which made him feel a lot more comfortable, if there were no troubles that still needed to be dealt with now.

After visiting the night market, Erwin was about to return to the central area, but just then, he noticed a man in a black burqa not far away.

It's not that anyone who wears black clothes that covers his whole body and hides his face in the shadow with a hood is a bad person, but when Erwin notices the man not far away, he also notices that he doesn't walk in a normal way.

Obviously, his hands, hidden under his clothes, should be holding something.

Erwin immediately put away the handmade necklace and walked briskly towards the man in black.

And just as Valker ran into the tavern, a man in a black burqa walked out of a remote alley in the area he was in charge of.

He stood in the street for a long time, his eyes hidden under his hood constantly patrolling the pedestrians who came and went, and then recently he raised a maniacal smile, and his hands hidden under his burqa were raised sharply, and he clenched two sharp knives in his hands, and then slashed at the pedestrians who were stunned at the sight of this scene

Blood splattered, and the corpse, broken into several pieces, fell out under the long knife with strong force.

The pedestrians around looked at this scene in shock, the sudden visual impact made them fall into a short period of sluggishness, and the slightly congested long street was suddenly quiet, until a woman let out a terrible scream, all the pedestrians reacted, many people began to bend over and vomit, and most of the rest of the people let out screams of unknown meaning, and then quickly dodged around, lest they be affected.

The murderer in the black burqa immediately emptied him, almost everyone was at least five meters away from him, and then looked at him with horror and fear.

The murderer smiled, and then in front of everyone, he directly raised his hand, and the long knife in his hand turned into a cold light, and inserted it into the forehead of an innocent crowd of onlookers, and the powerful force immediately lifted his skull, and blood mixed with white flowers' brains was sprinkled all over the ground.

With the actions of the murderer in the black burqa, the onlookers around screamed in horror, and then began to turn around and run away, and the crowd immediately dispersed like a tide.

But the crowd instead made it difficult for many of those who were scrambling to escape, screaming and shoving, and many were pushed to the ground and then trampled by the crowd.

This is what the murderer needs, he smiled, and then took two steps forward unhurriedly, picking up the long knife that had been thrown out again.

The murderer with two long knives, like Aki Audi, the lord of the Dead Realm who harvested life, caught up with the people from behind, and then began a killing frenzy, whether it was fleeing, screaming, kneeling for mercy or trying to resist, all turned into fragments under the sharp blade.

Panic and commotion quickly spread across the long streets, and tended to spread throughout Sandshield City.
