Chapter Ninety-Six: The Praying Mantis Catches the Cicada, and the Yellow Sparrow is behind

The lurker, who had been almost frightened, was not sluggish at all, and he shook out everything he knew like a bean. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

It's just that for Hiko, this kind of confession of his has no value. He didn't name who made him do it, or anything about the guy who gave him money to do it. The guy didn't say anything useful at all, except for saying how many gold coins they collected.

It's a worthless thing. But Hiko still chose to leave his life alone. For he had already thought of it, send him to the old shaman, and let him discern as far as he could from who had made him do it.

It's not that hard. Because there aren't many guys who will target themselves on Arest. He was just a child, at least in the eyes of the Nords. This alone would have removed most of the Nords from their list of suspicions. And if you think about it carefully, you can deduce a rough idea from the identities of these bandits he killed.

They are humans, outsiders to Arest. This says a lot. For example, who will be the guy who will come into contact with them. On this issue, the possibility of humanity is very high, and of course, it may also be just a cover-up. There are a lot of humans here, and there are quite a few guys who are willing to be a middleman for the sake of money. So it is not excluded that those other races may be possible.

But in any case, the human being is still the most likely. Because he had just offended the great merchant of the human kingdom, a guy who was most likely to spend money on his own life.

Just let this guy out there and let him go among the humans who haven't left Arest. Even he didn't recognize the guys who contacted him. Because of the reason why he is a thief, those people will also find a way to solve him. And when that time comes, the Nords, who are ready, will be able to wait and hunt them out.

It's a beautiful idea, but there are so many variables that it's hard to implement. But it's worth trying. So Hiko immediately kicked him and kicked him off the ground.

"Stand up and follow me. If you want to survive, you'd better be smart. ”

"Of course, of course. ”

Trembling to his feet, the lurker honestly took the prisoner and walked in front of Hiko. By this time, Dome had already dealt with his opponent and was walking towards him.

She first glanced at the captive in front of Hiko, and then shook the blood in her hand for revenge. Although the blood is drenched in blood, not a single trace of blood will be thrown out with her action, and this blood-drinking magic sword will not waste such a delicious thing.

Watch as the magic sword in her hand continues to swallow the blood flowing from it like a monster. The guy who had just become a captive couldn't help but shrink his neck at once. He was afraid, afraid of these two Nords who killed without blinking. As for his fearful look, Dome immediately showed a disdainful expression.

"What are you trying to do with this guy?"

"Use him as a bait. I don't think you want to let the guys who paid for our lives continue to live with impunity. ”

After explaining, Hiko set his sights on this poor creature who just wanted to save his life. His results won't be good, that's for sure. Because neither the masterminds behind the scenes, nor the Nords, will let him go. He will eventually die, but Hiko won't tell him this.

Let him keep a little hope of his own, a little hope that he might survive. This is the only mercy he has for him. Hiko thinks so. And for this thought, the dome obviously scoffed.

"You might as well give him a good time. It was literally torturing him. ”

Such words made the unlucky fellow tremble at once. He was really afraid that Hiko would change his mind at this time and take his life. It's just that his worries are obviously unnecessary, and Yan Ke will not make such an impulsive move. He prefers to let these people play the role they can play rather than meaningless killing. So he immediately shook his head and categorically rejected the firmament's opinion.

"I'm not going to kill him. I wouldn't think about killing anyone if I could. ”

"Thank you, thank you, my lord!"

The poor captive said this to Hiko, and he was once again sincerely glad that he could continue to live. It's as if he doesn't know that Hiko's behavior is the most cruel thing to do. He really didn't know? Not necessarily, but the desire to survive made him subconsciously ignore it. So much so that he saw the Dome as a flood beast and Hiko as his only savior.

As ridiculous as it may seem, it is the survival instinct of intelligent beings. In the face of such a performance, Qiong directly turned his head coldly, unwilling to look at him even a single time. She is a very typical Nord person. And most of the Nords are greedy for life and afraid of death. It's not surprising, so Hikoko won't try to reverse her point of view. He just thought silently, thinking about how to carry out his plan to lure the snake out of the hole.

And just as he was thinking like this, a strange noise suddenly sounded. Immediately after, a short figure stumbled out of the bushes and made such a noise to them.

"It's a trap, they're still lying in ambush!"

Such a shout immediately alarmed Hiko's heart, and then, he and Hiko's subconscious threw themselves into the bushes beside the road. And just as they were doing so, the arrows were already flying out of the branches of the trees not far away, accompanied by a muffled thunderous bowstring.

The place where Hikoto and Dome had just stood was immediately filled with dense arrows. And even though they had reacted as quickly as possible, they were still slightly traumatized.

The situation of the Dome was better, and the elven greatsword was carried on her back, serving as an effective barrier. So she was hit by only two arrows, one near her shoulder blades and one in her arm. This injury is nothing to a Nord.

In comparison, Hiko's is much more miserable. He only had a fur coat on his body, and this thick fur kept out the wind, snow and cold, but it would be unrealistic to block the sharp arrows fired by the crossbow. So in an instant, seven or eight sharp arrows were stuck in his body, and one or two of them almost pierced his internal organs.

This is because the moment he was on the edge of the arrow, he twisted the muscles in his body with a heart. Otherwise, maybe he would have lost his ability to fight by now. And if you lose the ability to fight on such a ferocious battlefield, you will really only be reduced to a lamb to the slaughter.

Some sighed, some rejoiced. But he focused all his energy on the ambush at a faster pace. Obviously, this is a trap specifically for them. Distract yourself with a squad of crappy bandits, and let your vigilance loosen as you clean up these crappy guys. Then take the opportunity to strike a fatal blow on yourself.

Very simple method, but clever and effective. As you can imagine, the person who laid out this trap must have been a guy with a very good understanding of human instincts. Otherwise, he wouldn't have come up with such an ingenious trap. And the person who executes this plan must also be a real elite. Otherwise, they should have been exposed when they had just swept away the lame bandits.

Although it was not possible to guess the true identity of the group of people behind it for a while, one thing was already certain, that is, they would definitely face a difficult challenge. If you're not careful, I'm afraid that both him and Dome will be buried here. So at this time, it is already time to go all out and fight hard.

With this in mind, Hiko pressed Dome's shoulder, stopping her impulsive urge to rush out. He first pulled a knife out of his bosom and then went straight into the spot where she had been stabbed by an arrow.

As he thought, the arrows used by his enemies were sharp barbed arrows, disgusting weapons that would stick to the human muscle layer with their sharp, sluggish barbs as they entered the target's body. If you encounter a tough guy who forcibly pulls out the barbed arrow on his body, then this can completely save a lot of effort on the shooter's part. Because the pain and bleeding caused by the entire muscle bundle being torn apart can easily kill someone. Even if it's a fluke to survive, for the shooter, it's a matter of stepping forward to make up for it.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, most experienced people will directly cut off the arrow stem on their body in this imminent battle situation, so as to prevent this thing from being used as a weapon against their enemies by their own enemies. And then after the battle is over, go to more professional people to deal with this disgusting thing.

This is the smartest way to do it at the moment, and if Hiko didn't have the cheating skills of the Holy Light, he would do the same. It's just that since there is Holy Light, then naturally there is no need to do such stupid things.

Directly used the knife to pick off the muscles that were bitten by the barb, and Hiko's force pulled out the two arrows on the dome's body. Then the light swept away, and the wound on her back healed instantly.

After doing all this, Hiko immediately threw the knife in his hand to the dome, and Dome immediately began to deal with the wounds on his body. Fearing the ensuing battle, she moves very quickly and violently. This naturally made Hiko's painful brain tendons constantly protrude.

But he didn't complain about it, but spoke to the dome seriously.

"Be careful, these guys are a lot better than the crappy ones before. I guess they should have come out of the kingdom's army. ”

"I'll just say you're in trouble. Quietly poked their heads out from behind the trunk of the tree where they were hiding. A little worry could not help but appear on the firmament's face. "That bait of yours is dead. Also, the person who warned us just now, I felt a little like Kololi when I heard her voice. She'll be fine!"

"Maybe. Saying this kind of thing that even he was not sure about, Hiko could only force himself to focus on the next battle.

"It's useless to worry at this point. Rather than engage in such pointless worries, it is better to address them as soon as possible. And then take care of the rest. ”
