0063. Caught

A big event has happened in Blackstone Town these days, and many people's eyes have been attracted to it.

The merchants of the Defoe Chamber of Commerce were confined to their buildings and were not allowed to go out, and the patrol team of the town almost poured out of the nest, surrounding the Defoe Chamber of Commerce, even though the merchants protested loudly, and even threatened to stop paying the mining tax for the quarter, the guards were unmoved, and only forced the merchants back to their residences with cold blades.

The orders they received were quite direct, as long as they were members of the Defoe Chamber of Commerce, they were not allowed to leave their residences, and if anyone tried to break out of the encirclement of the guards, they would be killed on the spot.

Blackstone is a mining town that depends on the miners for their livelihood, and even the mayor of the town, Pollitt, is polite to these miners on weekdays, and the guards usually ignore what the miners do, and this is the first time I have seen an unexpectedly tough attitude in the past few days.

Merchants and criminals from other chambers of commerce watched the bustle from the periphery, and every day they could see the vice-captain of the patrol team, Leiton, and a strange man going in and out of the largest building of the Defoe Chamber of Commerce, and occasionally the sound of the quarrel in the house was too fierce to reach their ears from afar.

Many people have speculated about what this is all about.

Some businessmen feel that this is a signal, Pollit may no longer be satisfied with the income from the mining tax, and the fat man who only knows how to be greedy and lustful may want to directly take back the mining rights of many ore veins in Blackstone Town, and be the biggest beneficiary himself, if that is the case, then other chambers of commerce may face the same fate as the Defoe Chamber of Commerce.

But this conclusion was immediately overturned, not to mention that Pollit didn't have so many slaves to mine the veins, even if he really wanted to attack the miners in the town, it shouldn't be the Defoe Chamber of Commerce, among the miners, Defoe could only be regarded as a quasi-first-line level, and if Pollit really did it, he should start with a mining giant like Taura.

Another speculation quickly became the mainstream of the conversation.

The murders of businessmen in the past few weeks may have an indiscernible relationship with the Defoe Chamber of Commerce.

Time passed day by day, and the patrol team was still stationed in the same place, and it seemed that there was no intention of evacuating, and it had been five days since the siege of the Defu Chamber of Commerce.

It also happened to be seven days after Virginia was killed, exactly one week later.

Almost everyone's eyes were focused on the besieged Defoe Chamber of Commerce, while in another place, someone had quietly sneaked in.

The Toula Chamber of Commerce was quite deserted, the miners had long been assigned to work in the various mines, and many of the merchants went to see the excitement of the town, and only a few attendants passed by in the Chamber of Commerce.

The black shadow hid in the sunlight and made his way through the chamber of commerce, and he came to the largest house, which belonged to President Galder, and there were only three young attendants outside the door, carrying fruit bowls and wine jugs, waiting for orders from inside.

The black shadow quietly approached the three of them, knocking them unconscious with great speed, and using his limbs to catch the fruit bowl and kettle they had taken off, without making any sound.

Putting the miscellaneous items aside, he slowly dragged the three of them to a hidden corner and hid them, and with a slight smile on the corner of the dark shadow's mouth, he pushed open the half-hidden door and walked into Gould's house.

A dark curtain was placed in the room, dividing the view, and he could faintly see the figure behind the curtain, which looked like Gald was sitting at the table and working on the letter.

Why put up a curtain? This was not surprising to Galder, for he was an old man who could have uncontrollable desires at any time, and behind the curtain there were not only tables and chairs, but also a large bed, and when he was in high spirits, he would call a girl and draw the curtain to do his own thing, and it is said that he had done so many times when his subordinate businessmen reported their finances, which was why his lustful reputation spread.

The shadow watched silently for a moment, and Galder kept his head down and the pen rustled, as if he didn't even notice that there was another person in the room.

The black shadow stretched his hand to his waist, slowly drew a pair of sharpened knives, held the knife and nimbly played with a few knife flowers, and suddenly said, "Gorde Taura." ”

The figure behind the curtain trembled suddenly, and raised its head suddenly.

"It's time to pay for the sins you committed ten years ago. ”

As soon as the words fell, the black shadow leaped out like a cheetah, flattened its blades, and burst out with astonishing force against the wind, instantly breaking through the curtain and slashing heavily on Galder's wooden table.

Click.

The sturdy long table shattered into countless pieces of wood and floated through the air.

The black shadow slashed the knives in his hand, and the sound of metal grinding was piercing, and he looked at Gauld with satisfaction, wanting to see the panic and fear in the latter's eyes.

But it was this glance that made his eyes cold.

There was no Galder, who was clearly a young man in front of him, with dark brown hair, unusual black pupils, and a face that was so delicate that it was admirable.

The Black Shadow is familiar with this face, but this face shouldn't be here at this time, he should be in the Defoe Chamber of Commerce now!

"If you don't show up, I'll think I've miscalculated the time. Hodge smiled in a friendly way.

The black shadow subconsciously took a step back, and instantly reacted that he had fallen into the trap, since Gourd was not here, then there was no need for him to stay, at this time he had adjusted his body, ready to withdraw from the trap at any time.

But since it was a trap, how could Hodge let him leave so easily.

He knew the strength of the black shadow very well, so he didn't even tell Leiden about this matter, but just asked him to lead the troops to surround the Defoe Chamber of Commerce, and the people who really planned to intercept the black shadow were not the guards and knights of the patrol team.

As soon as the black shadow turned around, he heard a sharp sound in his ears, and then he was faced with an extremely strong air current, and his reaction was slightly slower by half a beat, although he flashed to the side quickly, his left hand was still cut by the air current, and a long opening oozed red blood.

Is it an invisible blade......

The shadow pressed his back down slightly, leaned forward, and pressed his feet heavily against the ground on their toes.

The second airflow that broke through the air came quickly, and this time the black shadow was already fully prepared, and with a slight flick it perfectly staggered this sound blade, and his feet suddenly exerted force, and his whole body was like a stone bullet on a slingshot, and quickly ran towards the direction of the airflow.

The invisible sound blade is not easy to deal with, but the one who can release it is always a real person, as long as the source is taken, the threat of the sound blade will be naturally solved.

In the corner not far away, Hera's brow furrowed deeply, her little face written dissatisfied, and she was even more upset when she sensed the second sound blade she had unleashed smash into the air, and the sound fed back into her vision of a high-speed moving figure.

She stretched out her hands, this was the method of controlling the sound blade that she had learned in the past few months of continuous training, if it was against ordinary guards or knights, it was enough to just sound the sound blade, because they couldn't dodge, but to deal with someone like the black shadow who could avoid it, it was necessary to control the direction of the sound blade.

The black shadow suddenly stopped in the high-speed movement, and his years of combat experience made him aware of the approaching danger, and sure enough, with the scream, the air in front of him quickly distorted, and the three traces were connected together, spinning towards him in the form of a windmill.

He quickly made a judgment, if it was just three invisible sound blades, there might still be a chance to take advantage of it, but this sound blade was still spinning, and it was almost impossible to find the gap.

Since you can't avoid it, you can only smash it!

The black shadow held the twin knives in his arms, and the moment the sound blade was rotated, his eyes had already caught the traces of distortion, he swung the knife in his hand, and slashed accurately on the sound blade in a posture he had never seen before, and the three sound blades were all hit by him, and the air was obviously condensed, and the sound blade quickly disappeared.

If Layton had seen this scene at this time, he would have shouted out the name of the knife move used by the black shadow.

"Falling Rain Slash"! Unleash a dense number of swords in a very short period of time like a rainstorm.

This is a slash that only high-level knights can master, and even Layton has never learned!

After smashing the sound blade, the black shadow did not relax, he could already see the figure not far away, not tall, with long hair, it seemed to be a little girl.

But that does not affect his actions, life and death are at stake, and those who still care about the image of the enemy are fools.

He turned sideways and took advantage of the momentum to burst into flames, rushing towards Hera in front of him.

Hera's face was already gloomy at this time, and the sound blade was missing again made her quite angry, and a slight low whine came out of her throat.

"Hera, be careful!" Hodge shouted.

There was a pause in the whisper, and the shadow was already wielding its twin swords to Hera one step in front of hera.

"Ahh

The black shadow erupted with astonishing power and wielded the twin blades in his hand, but this was only in vain in the furious storm of sound blades, manpower was limited after all, and when the storm hit, even the strong were only small boats swaying in the storm.

When the storm subsided, Hera's little face turned red and sickly pale.

The black shadow was half-kneeling on the ground, looking extremely miserable, the knife in his hand was cut out of countless gaps, and there was an obvious crack in the blade, the clothes on his body became tattered, and the face towel used to cover his face was also cut into pieces and fell to the ground, revealing the true face of the black shadow.

Hodge got up, walked up to the two of them, looked at the fine incisions on his face, and his messy and curly beard, and said slowly:

"We should be able to talk about it now, right?"

"Captain Harlow. ”
