Chapter 442: Run

The sudden acceleration of Su Wen's four people made the city guards, who were originally just skeptical, completely sure that these four people were the people they needed to find.

Since His Majesty the Emperor declared martial law, their work had almost doubled in vain, and after maintaining a high level of tension for so long, they thought they would finally be able to get through it, but the events of last night at the Morpheus Hotel had brought them back to the tense state they had been in at the beginning of martial law.

As for this incident, because of the inconsistencies of various witnesses and the complicated relationship between the case, until now, they have not figured out how much happened in total.

Academic scams, theft, kidnapping, sabotage, food poisoning......

There are more than a dozen people involved, including a man and three women who are "on the run"! In addition to several chambers of commerce in the royal city, there are also the Morpheus Hotel and the Imperial College......

Obviously, after Su Wen left a "mess", those people who were still in the Morpheus Hotel artificially created some complicated cases in order to cover up some traces.

"The one in front!

When the soldiers of the city guard saw several people moving, they also immediately chased forward and gave verbal warnings.

Generally speaking, when hearing such a warning, ordinary people will stop and confirm whether they are calling themselves. Only those who have ghosts in their hearts will ignore them and go straight forward.

"That's them!

Originally, it was just a normal procedure of "summoning to help investigate", but because of the non-cooperation of Su Wen and the others, it instantly turned into a chase.

The city guards opened the encirclement network of several people with the plan that they had practiced countless times, and the city guards on duty in this place also received notices and joined the chase battle.

"Why...... There are more and more people, huh?"

Feeling the aura of more and more city guards surrounding them, Ellie suddenly felt that the seriousness of the matter seemed to be more serious than she had imagined.

"I think it's a bit of a problem......"

Su Wen's face did not change, and he pulled Mia and Yumi to continue to walk through the crowd.

The level of search in Wangcheng doesn't seem to be very good, and logically speaking, if you want to find someone, you should check the hotels everywhere as soon as possible.

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that it took them a night to sort out the basic situation and only started the search this morning.

Along the way, the residents of Wangcheng had never seen this kind of formation, and they retreated to the side of the street one after another, making way for fear of being affected.

Therefore, the four of Su Wen were clearly exposed to the sight of the chasing city guards.

"Stand in front! This is the last warning, otherwise, we will take coercive measures!"

Coercive measures?

The crowd on the side of the road was in a commotion, they had lived for so long, it was not that they had never seen the city guards arresting people, but in the royal city, it was the first time that such a big battle was held.

In particular, coercive measures in such a situation of martial law.

Because of the advancement of magic technology, the equipment on the city guards in the royal city is also different from that of other cities. In addition to basic armor and violent devices, there are also things such as "Rope Net Crossbow Arrows", "Magic Shackles", "Magic Tracking Bombs", and "Sonic Boom Bombs", all of which are also equipped.

If the target is too dangerous, there's even a scaled-down version of the Precision Magic Cannon.

The use of these equipment, in addition to taking into account the situation of the target, is also to pay attention to the surrounding inhabitants and the environment.

But in this situation, the residents consciously moved out of the way, freeing up a space for the city guards to operate freely.

"What should I do, Su Wen?" Ellie was a little flustered.

This kind of panic is not that she is afraid that the city guards will hurt her, but from the concept of "abiding by the law" that she has always cultivated.

“...... Then why don't we raise our hands and surrender?" Su Wen asked tentatively.

"Wow no!" retorted Yumi and Mia in unison.

Two sentences of time was enough for the city guards to make a decision.

Several city guard soldiers who arrived from the side intersection had already escaped from the rope net crossbow arrows in their hands, aimed at the front of the four people, and pulled the trigger.

Hearing only two "poof" sounds, two crossbow arrows with some thickness were ejected at a very fast speed, and after reaching the top of several people's heads, they exploded, blooming two rope nets made of special fibers, one for Su Wen with two people, and one for Ellie.

"Wow!" Ellie had never seen anything like this before, and she couldn't dodge it before she was covered in it. There was a flash under his feet because of this, and he almost fell.

In the rope net, Ellie was surprised to find that the rope net covering Su Wen was less than 10 centimeters away from the top of Su Wen's head, and suddenly burned, and in less than a second, it turned into a wisp of light smoke in a bright flame and fell to the ground.

Then Su Wen continued to run forward without looking back.

The rope net didn't affect him at all.

Ellie was dumbfounded.

"You're in charge of me!!"

After a roar, Ellie stepped forward and followed.

And the rope net wrapped around her body also seemed to have lost its effect, and was completely ignored by Ellie. After running two steps, Ellie directly tore it with brute force and threw it on the ground, leaving only clothes and some scraps of rope nets hanging from them.

Who is this!?

The city guards who fired their crossbow arrows were also dumbfounded, and it was the first time they had seen a person who could resist the rope net head-on.

This kind of rope net is by no means an ordinary thing, in addition to tenacity, it also has the function of blocking fighting qi and interfering with magic power, and it is difficult for ordinary gold-level strength to exert fifty percent of its strength under the constraints of this rope net.

The point is, it's not cheap............

If you haven't made a meritorious contribution to shoot this thing...... So just writing a report is going to suffocate people......

"Don't be stunned and keep chasing!!"

The city guards immediately packed up their equipment and followed, and at the same time, they also began to send additional manpower, calling for reinforcements according to the drill plan for the ancient demon cultists.

For a while, almost all the city guards in the area where they were located joined in. In addition to these people who are tracking, there are also some people who have started to block the intersection.

The equipment used is not a simple rope net, all kinds of equipment that have been equipped, or not equipped, or even equipment that is still being tested, have been taken out.

At the same time, the city guards also began to contact the masters above the platinum level in the royal city.

Things are getting bigger and bigger.

Yumi and Mia were stunned by the sudden entry of the police and bandit chase battle, and they hadn't entered this situation at all, but they were pulled by Su Wen and ran with their heads buried in it.

"Give me a little magic and let me run on my own!" Yumi's legs alternated, and it felt like it wasn't his own. I could only ask Su Wen for help.

"Oh, good. Su Wen responded, and directly condensed a flood of power in his hand, which was purer than Graham's magic power, and directly instilled it into Yumi's body in a way that Yumi couldn't understand.

"Hmm......"

Yumi directly felt that the cells in her whole body had opened their cell membranes, and began to absorb this terrifying magic, and then the long-lost sense of domination over the body returned to her.

Then, Su Wen sent away the hand that was holding Yumi.

And Yumi, after a short period of adaptation, also spread his legs and kept up with Su Wen's speed.

"Ahhhhh......h

Because Su Wen reduced a burden, Mia, who was caught by Su Wen on the other hand, flew up directly and floated in the air.

"Hand ...... My hand is going to break!"

"Ah, I'm sorry. ”

Su Wen turned his head and said a little embarrassed, and then pulled Mia forward and carried it directly on his shoulder.

Mia's figure was already a little petite, and being resisted like this by Su Wen, in the eyes of Ellie in the back, it was like the sheep thief she had seen in the village when she was a child......

Su Wen is the thief who runs away, and Mia is the little lamb who can only bleat......

"Oooooooooooo......oooo

Su Wen's flicking hand hit Mia's stomach, and the impact made Mia feel like she was having menstrual cramps.

"Stop!!" Mia yelled in Su Wen's ear, and this roar also mobilized the power of some ancient voices, and even sang a transient sound.

Su Wen was also a little frightened by this roar, so he stood still, stopped, and ate the inertia on his body by force. Although Su Wen can eat inertia, Mia's mortal body can't avoid the damage caused by inertia at all.

Mia felt like she had hit a pillar, reminding him of the pain of being squeezed out of bed and thrown to the floor by his sister when he was a child sleeping in a bunk bed......

“...... Ouch...... Never mind...... You continue to ......" Mia took advantage of this gap to adjust her position, then changed to a slightly more comfortable position and lay on Su Wen's back again.

"Oh. ”

Su Wen continued to run forward.

"Shoes!"

The sudden acceleration directly shook off Mia's shoes, revealing her feet in lace-trimmed white socks.

Due to inertia, the shoes that were thrown high and then gradually fell.

Ellie, who was running, suddenly saw a black eye, and then felt something, directly hitting her in the face, hot.

"Ouch!" Ellie's eyes quickened as she grabbed the object, her other hand grinning in pain as she touched her hot face.

When I looked closely, I realized that it was a lady's little boot.

"Who smashed me!" Ellie looked left and right, but she didn't see the suspect throwing the shoe at all, so she was angry and gritted her teeth unhappily, and then threw the shoe hard.

Ellie's "hard work", how strong it is, I won't say it......

Su Wen and Mia only felt that there was a high-speed moving object, with a sharp whistling and a faint smell of burning, slashing past them and flying forward.

"Ouch!"

Yumi, who was running at the front, had a headache in his head and fell to the ground. The pain in her body and the pain in her head made her not know whether to cover her head or her knees for a while.

"Oh......" Ellie covered her forehead, revealing a "it's over" expression.

"Beautiful! Which class brother did it!" Seeing a city guard who had fallen from a tracking target, he couldn't help but applaud. But if you stop and think about it, there seems to be nothing in the equipment of the city guards that can cause such an effect......

"Don't let up! Keep chasing! The target has been rescued by his accomplices. ”

With an apologetic expression, Ellie carried the fallen Yumi on her shoulder, continued to chase Su Wen, and ran forward.

After running for a dozen steps, Yumi whispered in Ellie's ear in a daze, "Pack...... Pack...... Knapsack...... Squishy is still in there............"

Ellie braked and looked at the backpack that was originally on Yumi's back, but at some point, it had fallen and was lying quietly in the middle of the road.

In the gaze of passers-by, a small transparent figure came out, and after "looking" around, it seemed to be frightened, and then got into it again, motionless......

Inside that bag...... What is it?

Some of the slightly more sensitive residents had already felt the smell of monsters.

Sure enough, it's the Ancient Demon Sect! These are the Ancient Demon Sects that have infiltrated the royal city!

Once this idea is generated, countless rumors will be generated, and then at a very fast speed, it will spread from this street to the entire royal city.

It's like what happened at Morpheus Inn......

The number of eyewitnesses directly determines the number and exaggeration of the last version of the rumor.

Some bold and powerful people have begun to move, wanting to explore the reality in this backpack. Generally speaking, the strength of a monster is directly proportional to its size, so this monster doesn't look very strong.

It's better to take advantage of the city guards before they arrive...... If you pick up that backpack in the past, you might be rewarded for your success!?

"My God......"

Seeing the passers-by approaching the backpack, Ellie panicked a little. If you accidentally hurt Yumi, forget it, under special circumstances, maybe you can get through the trick...... If there is anything wrong with the softness...... Then Yumi will definitely eat herself!

Moreover, Squishy is also innocent......

For this cute slime, Ellie also likes it a lot.

Absolutely not!

In a hurry, Ellie couldn't care about the eyes of passers-by. The coat made of armor on his body was transformed into a close-fitting black knight's armor in an instant!

After standing still, Ellie immediately turned around and rushed back directly with a ferocious aura!

When the passers-by saw this way, they turned around and ran! These passers-by, frightened, also ran backwards or fled into their rooms.

"Weird...... The pedestrians in front of them started running back?......"

The city guards who were chasing Su Wen and his party at normal human speed suddenly had doubts when they saw the situation ahead.

"Maybe there was a battle, and it stands to reason that there should be comrades from here to surround it......

"Stop talking, be serious!"

When they actually stood on this street, these chasing city guards figured out why the pedestrians ran away......

Because on the other side of the street, a terrifying warrior in black armor was running in the direction of the city guards at a very fast speed......

In front of Ellie's obvious target, these city guards, as a matter of course, ignored the backpacks on the ground.

"Alert! Alert! The target is going to counterattack! Prepare to attack!" Seeing this, the squad leader of the city guard immediately gave orders to his subordinates to pay attention.

It's just that Ellie's pitch-black armor makes them really uneasy......

This kind of armor, anyway, is above the blue grade, right? Someone who can equip such armor...... How strong is it?......

"Magic Shock Bomb Ready! Shoot!"

The city guards took shape, crouched down to aim, and fired magical bolts with sonic booms and flashing effects.

Such crossbow arrows, although they may not sound very powerful, can be more effective than anything else, so that the target will lose resistance without taking more damage.

Although it does not bleed, the impact of sound waves and flashes of light can cause a lot of damage to people's eyes and ears.

At the moment when the crossbow exploded, Ellie's pupils were automatically covered with a protective film blocking light, and the diaphragm in her ear canal, which had helped her sleep countless times under interference, was also sealed.

It can be said that this stun bomb is useless to Ellie.

But Yumi, who was on Ellie's back, was a little miserable...... In the midst of the intense explosion of sound and light, she fainted directly and fell unconscious.

The power of the stun bomb made the ordinary residents who were a little far away next to them feel quite frightened.

"None...... Invalid!?"

"Terrifying!"

"Don't panic! let's shout first, and if the target ignores them, we'll attack. The captain froze and shouted at Ellie in the state of the black knight: "Listen to the people in front! You are already surrounded! Please stand where you are, crouch down with your head in your hands! Do not resist! Hold your hands tied! Otherwise, we will attack you! Warning! This is not a joke!"

At the same time as the captain shouted, the other city guards also began to shout to the residents on both sides to evacuate them to avoid accidents. After all, the first duty of the city guards is to protect the residents.

However, how could Ellie, who couldn't even stun bombs, hear the shouts of the city guards?

So Ellie still stuffed her head and ran towards the backpack.

"Repeat! This is the last warning, people in front! Please stop immediately! or ............"

Ellie, who was getting closer and closer, made all the city guards feel a little pressure. In the end, after exceeding the psychological limit of the captain of the city guard, he finally gave an order and let the members of the city guard army attack.

This attack is not a non-lethal equipment for the purpose of restriction, but a genuine weapon of destruction for the purpose of killing the opponent!

The captain of the city guard had a solemn face.

I don't know why, he doesn't have the slightest confidence in restraining the black knight in front of him. Even if the other party's body does not have a little bit of strength that can be felt......

He was transferred from an adventurer to a city guard.

And now, he has a kind of despair when he was hunting in the wild, facing the terrifying monsters that almost wiped them out.

Delusion?......

So, those strong people who are usually in the palace, can they come out early...... If Eden-sama was still around, I'm afraid it would have appeared a long time ago, right?
