Entering the mountain forest, Noah's speed slowed down.

Not voluntarily, Datta was on the uneven, muddy ground full of dead leaves, like a toddler, dozens of meters of road, fell three times,

Data's face was stained with dead branches and rotten leaves, and he didn't know whether he was rubbing it or being ashamed, and his face was a little red.

"That, I'm sorry. ”

Noah had a wooden face, and he was a little at a loss, he really didn't expect that Datta would be weak like this, the road in the mountains and forests is really difficult to walk, and if you want to run, you need to carefully observe the terrain, and ordinary people will have the possibility of falling if they are not careful.

But Datta is a mid-level mercenary, and it shouldn't be so bad in a place that's difficult for ordinary people, but that's what happens for a mercenary.

In fact, Noah is not too depressed, he doesn't have too many expectations for Data's performance, and Data's current performance makes him have a normal idea.

"It won't be long before the old man's accomplices catch up, and at your current rate, it's only a matter of time before we're surrounded. Noah said, he didn't want to blame Datta for anything, he just told the situation, and at the same time, he was thinking about what to do if he really had to face such a situation.

Datta hurriedly slapped the dirt off his body, a little flustered.

The two continued to run through the shadowy forest, but they didn't get far before Datta fell again, tripped over a protruding root, and buried himself in the deep dead leaves.

Noah sighed, he didn't help, he didn't say anything more, and waited for Datta to get up on his own.

Holding the long knife in his hand, Noah observed the surroundings, he heard the subtle but clear movements around him, around them, a lot of people were gathering, and they were not completely surrounded, there was still hope for a breakthrough, if he was the only one.

Noah could already foresee that in a few moments at most, they would be surrounded, although the situation was critical, but Noah's heart did not fluctuate much, but became more and more calm, he had experienced many life and death struggles, and had already learned how to be fearless in the face of danger.

Just as Datta got up, those who had caught up arrived and showed their figures, and the group of people looked at Noah and Datta indifferently.

As if believing that there was no change, or waiting for orders, they did not attack immediately.

Datta stood stiff, his face pale.

In just a moment, there was a middle-aged man in the crowd, and directly in front of Noah and Data, the middle-aged man took a few steps forward and raised his eyebrows, "I didn't expect it to be two people." As he spoke, he looked at Noah and Merlin with interest, "How about we play a game?"

With no choice but to cooperate, Noah asked, "What game?"

The middle-aged man smiled playfully, "A person called... Who survives the game. ”

The middle-aged man continued to explain, "We need to keep one alive, and we only need one alive, you know what I mean, as long as one of you can kill the other, you will have a chance to live." ”

"What if we don't agree?" Noah asked.

The middle-aged man smiled, and he looked at Noah for a long time, "Then, I'll pick this person who is older than you." ”

Noah was speechless.

"How about it, do you play a game, or do you want to let me arrange it?" the middle-aged man asked.

Noah glanced around, and the people surrounding them were fifteen, no matter how you looked at it, fifteen wanted to kill two, it was something that didn't have any suspense, which was why the middle-aged man was not in a hurry to do it.

"Shall we play another game?" said Noah.

The middle-aged man was very interested, "Oh? How do you want to play?"

"The name of the game is called... Cat and mouse. ”

The middle-aged man savored the content of the name and laughed maliciously, "You mean we will be cats and you will be mice?"

Noah nodded, "Yes, after all, I would rather do it with you than kill my companions." ”

The middle-aged man didn't hesitate for long, so he agreed, Noah and Datta were no different from the fish on the chopping board for him, this fish likes to jump a little happily, which means that this fish is very healthy, and it must taste more delicious, he smiled, "So, how many cats do you want to catch your mouse?"

Noah's face was serious, and it was of course the best thing to be able to reduce the number of hostile enemies, "If I can, I want to come one by one." ”

The smile on the middle-aged man's face widened, "Yes, of course, what's your name?"

"My name is Noah. ”

The middle-aged man nodded, "Oh, Noah, that's what you want." He glanced at the young man beside him.

The young man didn't speak, nodded at the middle-aged man and then stood up, his appearance was plain, his eyes were slightly distracted, causing him to look a little stupid, and after walking to a slightly flatter place, he stood still, he drew his long knife, and then looked at Noah quietly.

Noah walked ahead of the youth. There is a slight difference in height between the two, and Noah needs to raise his head to make eye contact with the youth.

"You seem to have misunderstood something, the game of cat and mouse, one person escapes, one person chases. Noah said.

The young man had no expression on his face, and he turned his head to look at the middle-aged man, apparently waiting for the middle-aged man to make a decision.

The middle-aged man nodded faintly.

Noah pointed in a direction, "I will run in this direction, life and death, depending on the means." ”

The middle-aged man spoke, "I still need to remind you that if you escape, your companion will die a miserable death." ”

Hearing the middle-aged man mention himself, Datta's heart was a little desolate, what is the relationship between him and Noah, he is still clear, the husband and wife will fly separately when disaster comes, he and Noah don't know each other at all, strictly speaking, it is still a hostile relationship, and he is desperate to stay for him?

It's really impossible.

Datta has decided that Noah is ready to take this opportunity to escape.

Noah didn't know what Datta was thinking at the moment, and even if he knew, he wouldn't feel too much, just like he said before, life and death, depending on the means, he never made a similar guarantee that Datta would survive.

Noah looked at the middle-aged man, just nodded, and didn't speak. Without further ado, Noah turned and ran.

In an instant, Noah ran several meters away, and when Noah turned around, the young man followed suit.

The young man's speed was fast, and in the blink of an eye, he caught up with Noah who was in front, and Noah stopped.

The young man did not relent, because the person in front of him was still a teenager, and the moment he stopped running, the long knife in his hand slashed directly at Noah's neck

The long knife swung and whirred in the air, the sound was short but clear, Noah held the knife sideways in front of him, and the two knives collided, Noah blocked the attack, but also took a few steps back.

The young man's attack did not stop, he strode forward a few steps, approached Noah again, and the long knife in his hand slashed again.

Noah raised his sword and defended.

The crisp sound caused by the collision of long knives continued to sound, and every slash of the young man was very powerful and fast, and Noah was defeated one after another.

The winner seems to have been decided.

The middle-aged man showed a look of disappointment, feeling a little disappointed, sure enough, he was still too young, even if his thoughts were more interesting, but it was just like that.

The knife in the young man's hand is slashing faster and faster, under the knife like a storm, Noah is like duckweed in the water, crumbling, no matter how you look at it, he has the absolute upper hand, but the young man's heart is a little anxious, he can't cut it, his knife can't cut the young man in front of him!

The speed increased again and again, and the strength increased again and again, but his knives were still all blocked.

What the hell is this, why?

Of course, it is because Noah is stronger than the youth.

The young man has strength and is quick to use the knife, but it is all within the acceptable range of Noah, and it is not difficult for Noah to kill the young man.

Noah wanted to kill not only the young man, but he was also thinking about how to kill all sixteen people while testing the young man's ability.

Suddenly, the applause rang out, it was a middle-aged man, and the young man stopped attacking.

Moving his slightly numb arm, Noah looked at the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man looked at Noah, "Your performance is very good, and even surprises me, although Bill has only just become a junior mercenary for a short time, he has been mixed in the Warcraft Mountain Range all year round, and his strength is absolutely reliable, you can withstand his attacks so many times, it is enough to prove your talent, my previous words are still valid, as long as you kill your companions, you can live." ”

Noah looked at the middle-aged man, "That is, live a little longer, right?"

"Isn't it worth fighting for to live a little longer? "Middle-aged humane

Noah agreed with what he said, but Noah didn't speak.

The middle-aged man's face was dissatisfied, and he glanced at the young man who called Bill, and the young man raised the long knife again.
