96 [Vanishing Beast Tamer and Silver Fox Fawkes]
......
Within two steps, Al turned in, and the scene in front of him first relieved his heart, this was a dead end, a high wall blocked the road, and Carter would never be able to run if he was there. I saw seven or eight well-equipped soldiers with their backs to them, lining up to block the end of the alley, scolding and pressing forward in unison.
Al jumped up and took a look, surrounded by a blood-stained mercenary, he was forced to retreat by the dense defense line composed of swords and shields, and after a few steps back, his back was the wall, the opponent only had a sword in his hand, and he could not pose any threat to the iron wall of shields, unless he could go to the sky, it was conceivable that his fate would be squeezed into a corner by the shield wall, and then poked into a sieve by the blade that pierced from the gap in the shield.
Al didn't have a good impression of mercenaries in the first place, and if it was something like this at any other time, he would definitely turn around and leave, and he still remembered the red shoe prints on Ina's snow-white back. Just now......
"Steady, he's dead, that's allβ" One soldier smirked, he was about to say [just kill him like this!], but before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by a sharp shout from behind him.
"Carter!!!" Al shouted, frightening a group of nervous men at the end of the alley.
The situation in front of him, no matter how you think about it, Carter shouldn't be among those people, but the bloodstain is not broken to guide himself here, Al chased very closely, almost biting Carter's ass and chasing him, and the other party disappeared like this for no reason.
The boiled duck actually flew, and Al, like most people, shouted, half out of annoyance, half out of reluctance.
This shout gave the mercenary a chance, and the eyes that were deep under the high forehead bone turned in a circle, and while the soldiers were stunned, the mercenary rushed out with a bright sword on his body, and ran desperately, and shouted at Al's side at the same time, "I'm here!
The faces of the soldiers changed immediately, and they all turned to chase the mercenary, and the one who got close drew a sword on the mercenary's back, and two soldiers threw away their shields and carried their swords around from both sides, and one of them kicked the mercenary against the wall with one kick, and several people surrounded him and slashed indiscriminately, and the sound of metal crashing and the roar of men was endless.
The mercenary had his back against the wall, the circle was too small for only four people to reach him, and the other three couldn't squeeze in, so they looked at each other, turned around and ran towards Al, wanting to kill him together. This is okay, Al was ashamed and angry when he couldn't find Carter, seeing that the three soldiers rushed over to make trouble for him like stupid, he didn't bother to justify, thinking that he would simply kill them together and then slowly admit it, so he didn't hide or run, pinched the storm and rushed head-on.
As soon as he exerted his strength, the three soldiers were stunned, and they all knew in their hearts that they couldn't keep up with Al at this speed, and the three of them only had time to put their weapons and shields in front of them, and it was already a completely subconscious instinctive reaction to immediately seek self-protection when they saw danger.
Al saw the familiar defensive action, his heart was amused, and he didn't dodge, he had the intention to try his current strength, and rushed to a soldier who had lost his shield, and the storm slashed down at the opponent's horizontal sword body with his backhand, and with a bang, a force immediately shook back, and Al pressed down hard, and his face was immediately wet with warm liquid, until there was no more resistance in his hand.
After a few steps back, he found that the two soldiers were pale and shocked, and the swords in their hands were raised above their heads, but they did not have time to swing them. Their companions, on the other hand, looked stunned at the two severed swords in their hands, as well as the torn chest and abdomen, and the intestines leaked out of the gap, and the blood was already flowing all over the ground. After looking at it twice, the pain finally came from the wound, and he sat down on the ground, howling miserably, while howling, he picked up the intestines on the ground and stuffed them back into his stomach, and the blood on his face instantly flowed to the ground.
Al wiped his face, but even out the blood splattered on his face, checked the storm again, found not the slightest defect in the dagger, grinned, and rushed forward again, aiming the dagger at the head and face of a man. The soldier who bore the brunt of the attack hurriedly threw away his sword, raised his shield with both hands to protect his face, and halfway through the shield, the dagger had pierced through the mask, penetrated deep into his eye socket, and then sliced through the soldier's skull with the backward El, bringing up a string of brain flowers.
The helmet, much stiffer than his head, was now hanging from the storm, and as soon as Al shook his hand, it fell to the side, and instead of slowing down and turning around to deal with the last of the three soldiers, he took advantage of the situation and ran towards the four soldiers besieging the mercenary.
The four soldiers didn't react at all, Al's foot stepped on the wall, and instantly changed direction, dodging the soldiers' indiscriminate slashing swords, and plunged the storm into one person's neck from the side, the dagger blades all sank into the helmet and pierced, and the remaining strength of the fist hammered the soldier to a stumble, crashing into the other companions, the other three soldiers were almost knocked down, and both long swords fell off in the air.
One was caught by Al, he stepped on the fallen soldier and kicked them one by one, kicking all four soldiers to the ground, and slashing the head of the last soldier with another sword, but unfortunately the head was not good, the end of the long sword was stuck in the deformed helmet, and the soldier's head had been vigorously crushed.
The mercenaries who were surrounded in the middle laughed, followed Al to step on the soldiers who wanted to get up one by one, grabbed the hilt of the sword with both hands, poked the blade one by one, poked three times, and suddenly the strong wind hit his face, the mercenary lowered his head, only felt a cold scalp, a chill in his heart, and the weapon inserted into the soldier's chest was too late to pull out, so he hurriedly dodged and jumped, raised his eyes to look at Al, but there was a sound of a sharp blade entering the flesh and a heavy object falling down behind his ears.
Al ignored the mercenaries who were putting on a defensive stance, and glanced at the other party's face, meaning that if I want to kill you, it is a matter of doing it, and began to lean down and look at the faces of those soldiers one by one, but no matter how you look at it, it seems to be coping.
Seeing him put the weapon in his arms, the mercenary looked back again, thought for a moment, and began to sit down and bandage himself.
After a while, the mercenary said, "Thank you, friend. β
Al didn't have a good impression of the mercenary, if it weren't for the fact that this man didn't have a helmet, he might have killed him with his hands, and he turned over the corpse and ignored the other party.
After a while, the mercenary asked again, "Is Carter your friend?"
"yes. Al replied casually.
He walked past the mercenary and walked towards the three corpses around the corner, but what he was thinking about was whether to kill the other party, if it wasn't for this group of people doing anything here, Carter wouldn't lose it, he glanced at the mercenary, and the naked killing intent in his eyes startled the other party, making the mercenary think that Al was thinking about what he had just done.
"A good friend, who could have sent him to God today, ended up missing here. β
The mercenary was stunned for a moment, then understood what the other party meant, he thought for a while and said, "My name is Fox, and I may be able to help you." β
"No, I don't want to be stuck in a dead end. Escaped by Carter, Al is already a loser, and the loser never stings with his sarcasm about the loser. He thought in his heart that the mercenary was just afraid that he would stab him to death.
Fawkes's face was hot, and he quickly turned his face away, and he was also angry in his heart, if the other party hadn't saved him, according to Silver Fox Fawkes's temper, if you can't beat it, it must be Yang Jian who will cut it. Thinking of his bloody face, he turned back and said sarcastically, "I've never chased someone." β
"You're paralyzed. Al lifted the masks of the two corpses and scolded helplessly, not knowing if he was scolding himself.
Al searched all the way, and there was no Carter among the seven corpses, although he knew this, he was so angry that he kicked the last corpse a few times, taking the corpse for Carter, and kicked the dome of the breastplate to a large dent before stopping.
It was already getting dark, and he had to rush to the East Outer City, so he had no choice but to let Carter go for the time being. He thought helplessly, "There will be endless troubles after letting the tiger return to the mountain, even if I and the two gold diggers escape safely from that chaotic place, I am afraid that the next days will not be easy." β
Thinking of a ready-made mercenary, Al turned around and asked, "Do you know what's going on at the east gate of the inner city?"
"The east gate of the inner city," Fawkes didn't go in, but he had probed the situation there, he had stripped the armor and shirt of a soldier with a head wound on his hands, and paused to continue, "You know, the mercenaries go out from there, and there are 5 gold coins as a reward, and they need enough werewolf tail fingers to come in again......"
Fawkes then gave a rough overview of the rules, and Al nodded in understanding, he didn't care about the hunting rewards or anything.
Fawkes glanced at Al and reminded, "If you're going out, you'd better change into a mercenary, but I advise you not to go." β
Al sneered, "The mercenaries from all over the city have entered, such a good place, why don't you go?"
"You go find a clean set of mercenary armor to change into, and say that you can't stay here for too long. Fawkes had completely stripped the soldier and began to undress himself, Al looked at the large blood stains on his body, turned his head and walked over to the pile of corpses around the corner, picked a clean one and dragged it aside, and began to undress and undress.
"You heard my name, the expression on your face didn't change a bit, it seems that you don't know me, and you definitely don't know the Silver Fox Mercenary Group. Fawkes sighed, glanced at the pile of corpses, and said to himself whether he knew it or not, after today, it didn't matter if he knew it or not.
Al raised his eyebrows and looked at Fawkes, but saw that the other party's face was full of gloom, and he couldn't help but feel a wave of doubt in his heart.
"Originally, in Luolong City, the largest mercenary group was called Grizzly Bear, and the second was the Silver Fox, and I was the leader of the Silver Fox Mercenary Group," Fawkes said to Nunu, the mercenary in Al's hand, "The one you carry in your hand is my best brother, and those are all Silver Fox people." β
"Huh?" Al thought for a moment, put down Fawkes' good brother, chose another corpse, and looked towards Fawkes, only to see the other party sigh and look away.
"You've also heard the price offered by the Duke, and compared to the danger described by the noble lord, Huang Chengcheng's gold coin is inevitably too easy to take. But as soon as those people heard the words "woodland rose", they all rushed in like crazy. β
Indeed, Al didn't care about the remuneration offered by Luolong City before, he just wanted to go in and help those two chicks, but now he thought about it carefully, if the rules were like this, then the Eastern Outer City was simply a holy place for making money.
"The Silver Fox can grow from a small team to a large mercenary group comparable to the Grizzly Bear, not by strength, but by brain......s," Fox was visibly embarrassed when he said the word [brain].
"But the other mercenaries who entered the Eastern Outer City may still be alive and well, but the leader of the Silver Fox almost died. Al sneered again, reminding him that he had grown more and more fond of speaking in Carter's tone, and that he had not looked at Fawkes's blood-soaked face, and that most of his attention had been focused on how to disassemble the corpse's protective gear.
But Fawkes didn't care, and continued, "If you don't go in, you still have a chance to survive, but if you go in, you will die, even if those people live today, they won't survive tomorrow, either in the mouth of a werewolf, or under a sharp blade, or for other reasons and time, in short, they will die." β
"How? Won't you be able to come out when you're hunting?" Al couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, that's exactly what they say, but do you know where the mercenaries who came out went?"
"It's going to be a four-person combination!" Al blurted out, he thought for a moment and smiled, "It's a gold rush for mercenaries, who would want to come out so quickly." β
"Hmph," Fawkes sneered, "there's always going to be someone who wants to try it, to see if it can really come out, but what is [foursome]?"
"Grass, don't pretend. β
"My men have been staring at the east gate of the inner city, and after some scattered mercenaries came out, they turned around and went in again," Fawkes shook his head, indicating that he didn't understand what [the four] was, and his tone was cold, "and went in and told the others that they could come and go as they pleased, so that they could rest assured." β
"Isn't that good?"
"I guess if the entire mercenary group came up with it, the army guarding the east gate of the inner city would definitely not agree. β
"You said you guessed it yourself, it's only been a long time, how can so many people put together their tail fingers. β
Fawkes shook his head, "I used to think so, but now you see, why did the soldiers in the inner city encircle and suppress the silver fox. β
"Because you all love foursome, it's not a good thing. Seeing that what the other party said was not clear, Al was a guess and an excuse, and only thought that most of the mercenaries were so virtuous, who would they kill if they were not exterminated?
"By the way," Al suddenly stopped what he was doing and said angrily, "If I change into the equipment of the Silver Fox Mercenary, I'm not asking for trouble?"
"Just remove the emblem, the idle mercenaries on the road are not among their targets. Fawkes had already put on the soldier's equipment, and was checking for anything missing from his body, and the speed at which the armor could be put on and dismantled was obviously not comparable to a newcomer like Al, as long as he put the mask down, he looked like a hoplite.
Hearing what the other party said, Al recalled, it seemed that this was indeed the case, those mercenaries were cool in the flame rose, and the soldiers had no reason to let them have fun in the open, and Al also saw several mercenaries along the way, so he continued to disassemble the protective gear on the corpse.
"If you had a weapon by your side that could destroy you at any time, would you be afraid?" Falkerston paused, and asked himself, "Fear." Especially since it's not under your control. β
"And what will you do?"
"Destroy it first. Without thinking, Al began to change his clothes, he didn't want to wear protective gear, because he felt that he was too weak to carry too much weight, but now he didn't have that worry.
"Yes, and for Onner Swanti, our mercenary regiments are the weapons. Fawkes collected some more coins from the corpses and walked towards the mouth of the alley, he did not want to stay for a moment after making these preparations, and naturally he did not sell anything to Al again, and only a part of the silver fox was blocked here, and he planned to infiltrate the soldiers in the inner city, try to find more information, or save more of his mercenaries.
Al was stunned, and suddenly understood what Fawkes meant, and he thought a lot, and a word came to mind.
- Trying to get away with it.
But he had experienced those things before, and he had unconsciously reduced the credibility of other people's words by half in his heart, not to mention that Fawkes was a stranger to him. After thinking about it, he put his mind at ease, Al came out of the small pocket, and the other party definitely didn't know about this matter, even if Luolong City regarded the mercenary as a hidden danger and wanted to take this opportunity to destroy it, then before they confirmed that Nissa had come out, the passage should be open.
Guess by guess, who the knows if that's the case, but whether it's or not, Al is not afraid of [Courage and Strength] and the Tempest Dagger now, and Nissa and Serapel must be found.
Otherwise, how to collect the debt?!
"That's called Carter, I'll keep an eye out for you. With that, the rest of the heavy infantry Fawkes turned into another alley.
Al shook his head, obviously didn't take Fox's last words to heart, in his eyes, if this Silver Fox Captain was embarrassed by Carter, it was estimated that he would have to block people in the alley next time, ah, yes, he didn't rely on strength to make a home, and the smart Fox Captain seemed to have expected me to appear here.
Shaking his head twice, Al suddenly felt a little dizzy, he thought about what the other party said about the theory of [several mercenary groups are weapons that cannot be controlled], but he couldn't concentrate on it, he tried a few times but it didn't work, and finally had to move out of the big move, and thought about the purple eyes several times to get better.
As for Carter, Al didn't bother to spend too much energy on [what the other party will do next], and that guy had better run halfway through and vomit blood and vomit to death. If Carter hadn't died, he might have run away because he had messed things up and was afraid of being blamed from above, or he would have pretended that nothing had happened, obediently repaired his pockets, and found someone else to replace the serf Al as bait.
But I can't stay in prison and do nothing, and I can't wait for anything, what if the two of them are trapped inside and can't get out?
After a while, he finally put on the mercenary's protective gear, Al spitted on the clothes he had taken off, and wiped it on his face twice, I have to say that this thing really stinks, and then took a handful of mud on the ground and wiped it on his face, and then walked out.
After walking a few steps, he picked up a long sword from the ground and inserted it into the scabbard on his back, and hurried towards the east gate of the inner city. It reminded him of the Gold Digger's Sword that Serrapel had given him, but it was supposed to have been left behind in the woods, or perhaps he had gone to heaven for himself.
Al thought to himself: If I run into them, I would like to ask Nissa to send me another one, and Selapel will give it to me, right, it's better to give her her own, without that damn weapon, who is afraid of her?
The bloodstains on the ground had begun to turn black, and Al knew that he shouldn't have walked out along the bloodstains, but he was not familiar with this place, and he had just chased the bloodstains all the way in, only paying attention to his feet, and he didn't memorize the route seriously at all. Besides, he was not afraid of the soldiers in the inner city, and with a fluke in his heart, he reached into his arms to hold the storm, and rushed out of the alley all the way, but when the cool flow in his body flowed, the dizziness became heavier in vain.
The two corpses at the mouth of the alley had been carried to the side of the road, in fact, it was a civilian passing by, under normal circumstances, this kind of thing would have been dealt with by the inner city patrol team as soon as possible, but the inner city patrol team had already been withdrawn to patrol the logging area, and the whole army was wiped out. At this time, the strength of the inner city has been seriously insufficient, and it has been transferred twice, and it is necessary to encircle and suppress the silver fox everywhere, and the fight will definitely kill people, and now there are corpses lying in many places, and the above only if these two people were killed by the silver fox mercenaries, naturally no one has time to take care of the collection of corpses.
