By the time Hastings and the blonde woman came out of the sewers, there was already a mess outside, and the news of the monster attack spread among the civilians one after another, and many people woke up from their sleep, and they were all hurriedly packing up their things and preparing to flee for their lives.

Hastings and the blonde beauty came to an empty house prepared in advance in the north of the city, waiting for the opportunity to leave the city, and the blonde beauty leaned against the window, staring at the street outside, looking a little nervous.

Hastings was very calm, and pulled out a fairy tale book from the shelf, and comforted the former, "Don't worry, they will definitely open the door, D'Artagion is not such a person, they will not let the whole city be buried in order to capture me." ”

The blonde beauty smiled bitterly, "But the problem is that the Wizards Guild doesn't know how many monsters will land in Azure Bay tonight, should we send them some news?"

"Don't underestimate D'Artagion, he'll take into account all possibilities. ”

Hearing this, the blonde beauty finally calmed down, "Father, why don't you tell me about tonight's events in advance, I have more time to prepare, maybe I can do better." ”

Her words were more tactful, in fact, the blonde beauty felt that tonight's action was rushed, and many details were not taken care of, and if she could have planned in advance, it would greatly reduce the possibility of Merlin's escape.

Hastings shook his head, "Don't think about it, I didn't doubt your loyalty, but if I had told you in advance, with Merlin's cunning, he would have been able to detect it." Dark Stingston paused, and continued, "Tonight's action has been decided three years ago, but so many things have happened and now the goal of killing Merlin has been temporarily increased, it is naturally best to take this opportunity to kill him, once and for all, all the troubles will be solved, but it doesn't matter if you don't kill or not, let's just talk about it." ”

"Let's talk?" the blonde was surprised, she thought that choosing to kill Merlin would mean that the negotiations would fall apart completely, and it was hard to imagine that the two people who were fighting each other one moment would be able to sit at the negotiating table the next moment.

"Surprised?" Hastings smiled, "For people like us, reason will always outweigh one's own feelings and likes and dislikes, and only he can give us what we want, and he can only take what he wants from us, so even if he knows that we are going to kill him, he can only pinch his nose and admit it." ”

The black shadow on the roof shook his head, this head of the Matthews family didn't know Merlin's character at all, that guy's heart and eyes were smaller than pinholes, if you put him together, he would definitely put you in ten ways, and the black shadow didn't plan to listen to it anymore, and jumped directly into the house, the blonde beauty was taken aback, "What person?!"

She usually follows Hastings and protects his safety in addition to being sent by him, so her skills are actually quite good.

However, Black Stins' eyes were even more vicious, he could see at a glance that the strength of the black shadow was above the blonde beauty, and seeing that the two were about to fight, he hurriedly asked, "Who is Your Excellency?"

The dark shadow said lightly, "Melinto, I brought his greetings." ”

Dark Stings breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, if it was someone from the Wizards' Guild, it was undoubtedly the worst situation, if it was a powerful bounty hunter, he could try to buy the other party with money, and it was safest to fall into Merlin's hands, and the two sides would have to negotiate anyway.

Hastings said to the blonde beauty, "Throw away the weapons, and we surrender." ”

The blonde beauty hesitated for a moment, and the black shadow just stood in place, without the next move, looking at the two coldly, the blonde beauty finally gritted her teeth and threw away the long sword in her hand at the order of Black Stins.

The shadow seemed to relax after she disarmed, and Hastings spoke, "We can go with you......"

However, only halfway through his words, the black shadow suddenly moved, and only had time for a frightened expression to appear on the blonde beauty's face, and the next moment there was already a blood line on her neck.

The dark shadow withdrew his dagger, "This is the greeting from Merlin. ”

Dark Listings was shocked and angry, he didn't expect the other party to do it without any warning, and the dark shadow explained, "Merlin told me that it only takes one person to negotiate. ”

Dark Stings wanted to say something, but the dark shadow didn't give him another chance, and directly knocked him unconscious, took him in his hand, and brought him back to the agreed place with Merlin, who was boredly counting the ants by the wall.

"Yo, we cooperated quite tacitly, and it really took less than a quarter of an hour. Merlin looked up and saw the black shadow and the black stings in his hand, and couldn't help but say sourly.

Without saying a word, the shadow threw Dark Stings at someone's feet.

Merlin's expression changed, "What do you mean, do you want me to carry him away?"

"Looks like you're in a lot of trouble tonight. The black shadow spoke, drawing his dagger, "I won't accompany you on the road ahead, take care of yourself." ”

With that, his gaze shifted to the other end of the long street, and from there came an old mage.

His hat was old, his clothes were old, his staff was old, and the wrinkles on his face were all clustered together and swaying, and it looked like he might fall at any moment, but the dark shadow was like a great enemy, and he no longer had the ease he had when facing the black stings and the blonde beauty.

"Ninth Order Magician?" a look of surprise also appeared on Merlin's face, "Tsk, the Wizards Association really has a backhand." ”

"It's not safe in the city right now, and President D'Artagion has asked me to give you a ride. The old magician spoke, the wrinkles on his face stretching, "Is the Black Stats in your hands too, just in time, I can bring him back to the guild with me." ”

The black shadow snorted coldly, "If you want to arrest someone, let's pass my level first." ”

In the moments when they spoke, monsters had already rushed into the city, and these monsters bypassed the defense line built by the Magician Guild on the beach, directly invaded the city's drainage system, and drilled out from under the manhole cover, causing a large-scale riot in the city, one of which was only a hundred meters away from Merlin, opened its bloody mouth, and pounced without hesitation.

Although he was then cut open alive by the black shadow with a dagger, it also frightened both him and the old magician, and there was less and less time left for them.

"Hurry up. The dark shadow urged.

Merlin was not polite, he picked up the black stings and ran, of course this thing was not so kind, he had already made up his mind in case he encountered a monster blocking the way, he would throw this lump of meat on his back as a bait to escape.

The old mage wanted to stop him, but his instinctive reaction to danger caused him to stop the chanting of the bindalism and instead unleash a pair of elemental armor for himself.

"Concentrate on it, your opponent is here. ”

The next moment, a dagger was stuck in the elemental armor, and the black shadow had vanished.
