Chapter 209: Counter-Killing
As early as a month ago, after Liszt had sought out the sheriff, he had given an order that as soon as Downton entered Morning Mist, no matter what excuse he found, he must be arrested and not let go under any circumstances.
"Let's get on him, catch him!" the vigilante growled and threatened Downton, unable to listen to him anymore.
"Idiot!" Downton gave up on communication, clenched his fists, and slammed the soldier in front of him in the face.
With a bang, the soldier fell down with blood spurting from his nose.
Downton kicked him in the stomach, and the hapless man fell out, knocking over three soldiers.
Hu Tao swung the bench and shuttled among the soldiers, slamming them into their bodies, knocking over six people in an instant.
In the dense sound of fractures, it was the figure of the walnut rabbit rising and falling and beating the trash fish.
Looking at this fierce little Lori, the adventurers around were dumbfounded, but the bloodier was still to come, Celest's arcane missile was completed, whistling, and shooting towards the vigilante captain.
The captain had already noticed the cloaked magician, and when he saw her chanting a spell, he immediately hid, but unfortunately he underestimated the magic power of the Banshee of Death.
Celes was worried that the phosphorus rocket would miss a hit, so she chose an arcane missile with a large attack range, and after it was fired, she continued to chant and add phosphorus rockets.
Boom, the Arcane Missile exploded next to the captain, cracking the floor with the blast, and the shockwave tore his skin apart, and the flesh and blood of the blast blurred and fell out.
A wail, a mess.
Seeing the captain dodging over, the adventurers didn't want to be affected, so they left their seats one after another, and one of them couldn't dodge, so they simply waved their shields and blocked the phosphorus rockets.
"Serex. Stop, protect yourself!" Downton flipped all the soldiers, grabbed one guy by the collar, and dragged him in front of him.
Hu Tao did the same, as she heard the sound of dense footsteps, and then a group of soldiers armed with mahogany longbows rushed into the tavern. Arrayed, after loading the arrows, aimed at Downton.
"Stop!" the sheriff in military uniform strode in, frowned and glanced at the messy scene, and then raised an official tone, "What's going on? Who is causing trouble in Morning Mist?"
The sheriff glanced at Downton, and when he received a report from his subordinates, he arrived, and what if he was the chief worker?
"Are you guys making trouble, wounding the vigilantes?" he asked. The sheriff didn't give Downton a chance to explain at all, and waved his hand, "Come on, arrest them!"
"Wait, they were the ones who got into trouble first. Celestia apparently hadn't seen the sheriff's plan for a long time.
"What nonsense. The sheriff cursed, and his men flocked to Downton, who seemed to them to have no way to escape. You have a hundred heavily armed GIs with bows and crossbows. As long as he dares to resist, shoot him immediately.
But in the next second, all the security guards were like being hit by Medusa's petrified beam, and they all brushed their steps, their faces full of shock, staring at the gate of the war space unfolding behind Downton.
Quasimodo was the first to walk out. Heavily armoured and armed with a battleaxe, it resembles a steel rampart, blocking any route to Downton.
Ten Abominations stepped on the floor, shielding the three Downtons in an arc, with their height and size. Not to mention crossbow arrows, even magic and steambed crossbows, they can't break through their defenses without bombarding for a minute.
The entire tavern was silent for a while, and all eyes fell on these abominations, especially the security guards, looking at their stitched feet and ugly faces, they were directly frightened, and subconsciously retreated, wanting to stay away.
"An undead war machine!"
"How can this kid have so much hatred?
"What are you kidding, the Abomination Workshop is a construction unit heavily protected by the Undead Society, even if he is a judgment order, it is useless to go. ”
The adventurers looked at the hatred and whispered, they forgot one problem, the entire Western Earth Continent, there is also an undead country near the distant Twilight Empire, in the north, there is no undead people to live.
Of course, after all, the Western Earth Continent is too vast, and there may still be some remnants of the undead tribes in inaccessible places, but they definitely don't dare to show their faces, otherwise they will be strangled and killed.
"This kid is so lucky to have found the ruins of an undead city!" Torres was a genius, and immediately guessed the source of Downton's abomination.
Di Lanxue nodded, her eyebrows frowning slightly, these abomination skins and flesh are too new, there are no traces of battle at all and there are no traces of time-honored years, which means that they have only recently come out of the abomination workshop, and they should have been preserved.
"An undead mage, no wonder there is a dark aura on him. Dilanxue glanced at Serex, but didn't make a move.
Although she is a paladin, she is not the kind of fanatical believer who wants to annihilate when she sees evil creatures.
"What's wrong? Aren't you fighting?" Downton's face was gloomy, "You have to let me show my strength before you are willing to calm down and speak?"
"Downton, you see clearly, I'm the sheriff of Morningmist Town, do you want to disobey me?" the sheriff was almost angry, he didn't expect that a few months ago, a small postman who needed to look down on his guy, would have the audacity to talk to himself like this.
"Don't use your position to oppress people, I'm the director of the Dagger Mine, directly serving Lord Daffink, if you have any complaints, just go and talk to him!"
"You're looking for death. The sheriff was furious, "Arrest him quickly, as long as he resists, he can be killed directly." ”
The vigilantes looked left and right, and none of them dared to make a move.
"What are you doing? He's bluffing, don't forget, he's just a civilian. The sheriff was furious, rushed a few steps, raised his foot and kicked at the subordinates beside him, "Prepare to release the arrow!"
Seeing the bright cluster of arrows aimed at Downton, the security guards had the confidence to walk towards Downton.
"My lord, this guy has been violently arrested, don't let him go!" the vigilante captain covered his wounds and stared at Downton with a grim expression.
"Quasimodo, as long as you enter the target five meters in front of you, kill them all!" Downton was ruthless, even if he killed someone, otherwise he would not be able to be awe-inspiring at all.
"Yes, master!"
Quasimodo stared at the phalanx of fifty men with bows and arrows, who were the most threatening.
The vigilantes stopped again, but at the urging of the sheriff, they had to move towards Downton, in their opinion, this kid was probably a scare, after all, he was an official soldier, but the next second they knew that they were wrong.
The two soldiers tentatively stepped into the five-meter range, intending to step back as soon as the other made a move, but it was too late.
Quasimodo's movements were clean, he swung his battle axe sharply, and with a snort, the blade of the axe slashed at them with a strong wind.
With a click, a total of five soldiers were cut into two pieces, and blood and internal organs were spilled on the ground.
There is no way, Quasimodo is tall and has a wide attack range, so he can only complain that the three unlucky ghosts are standing too close.
Ah, the nearby vigilantes were splashed with blood, screamed in fright, and retreated in embarrassment.
"Shoot the arrows, release the arrows!"
The sheriff yelled, and the archers fired, but to no avail.
The bodies of the abominations formed a wide shield of flesh that blocked the three Downtons.
"Celest, disperse them!" Homer urged.
"There's no need, use ghouls, maybe there's a big war in a while, let her keep her magic energy. Downton's face was gloomy as water, if it weren't for this uninteresting sheriff, he wouldn't have to kill anyone, but if it was like this, he wouldn't be good.
The war space opened up again, and ghouls dressed in warrior heavy armor appeared, sprinting directly towards the tavern door.
Seeing these steel-clawed cans armed to the teeth, not only the vigilantes were retreating, but even the archers who didn't wait for the order to exit the tavern in a hurry.
The adventurers didn't expect Downton to show such a powerful strength in an instant, and they were all shocked, and some people who wanted to hit his attention also gave up completely, just the strength of the people was enough to crush a hundred-man infantry regiment.
Torres was a little surprised, but Di Lanxue, still with that quiet posture, was silently eating dinner.
The vigilantes retreated into the street, and the soldiers who stayed outside saw some 'tin cans' rushing out and there was a commotion, have you heard that the enemy is so strong?
Downton stood at the foot of the steps at the door of the tavern, looking at the men condescendingly.
"Downton, are you crazy, you want to go to war with us?" The sheriff's face was already as black as the bottom of a pot, no wonder Liszt wanted to trouble Downton, probably because he wanted his treasure to succeed, but this kind of character, he doesn't seem to be able to provoke it.
"Boy, it's too late to abandon your weapons and surrender, or I'll throw you into a water prison and torture you to death!" the vigilante captain yelled, looking like a dog, "Otherwise, you will wait to become a bandit, there will be no place for you in Morningmist Town in the future!"
"I was ordered by Lord Dofphonk to dispatch the riot in the Dagger Mine, and yesterday I got a tip-off that you are a mole and an undercover agent for Tyson. Downton stared at the vigilante.
"No, I don't know Tyson. The captain didn't expect to be bitten back by Downton, and he was anxious.
"Quasimodo, catch him, and if you resist, kill him!" Downton looked around, "Whoever attacks is his accomplice!"
Quasimodo replied and rushed straight to the steps.
The vigilantes quickly moved out of the way, and Downton pulled up the banner and stopped them, after all, the miners who had returned to Morningmist had already spread the news that he had been appointed as a superintendent.
"I'm not, my lord, I'm not a mole!" the captain took the sheriff's hand and begged for help, but when he saw Quasimodo rushing over, he couldn't hold back anymore and turned around and ran.
"Since you're not a spy, what's running?" Downton added another charge to the captain, which would have been the reaction of anyone who saw a ferocious abomination rushing towards him. (To be continued......)
