In the evening, the royal capital, the market area. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Ahh His whole face was like that of a leper, but what really made the woman scream was when she saw the old man "grow" out of the ground.

As if triggering some kind of switch, the same hunchbacked old men came out of the ground with a sinister smile, and they playfully watched the frightened people fleeing in all directions, and the butcher knives in their hands mercilessly slashed at the unarmed people.

He had been holding back for a long time since the unpleasant encounter that night, until the sound of the inner city cell sounded, and he summoned the "soldiers" he had worked so hard to divide - if he was given enough time to prepare, he could alone split a clone that could stand up to all the kingdom armies.

His task was simple—to sweep and control the entire market area, which seemed to him to be an easy task, as the nobles and wealthy merchants were now concentrated in the inner city, and the garrison here was unprecedentedly weak, and the sentinels of the kingdom army were slaughtered by his clones in less than three or four seconds.

The reason for controlling the market area is simple, it is an important hub connecting the royal capital to the port, and if you occupy it, the inner city will instantly become an island. There was only one reason for the dungeon signal, and the adults had finally found Phoenix's hideout.

Days of power play are boring, but the results are satisfying, and it's much more efficient than if they were going straight into the inner city and then aimlessly searching for Phoenix.

Within a few minutes, the civilians of the market area had been slaughtered, the small market was bleeding and the stumps and severed arms of the civilians were everywhere, while the old man and his doppelgangers admired their "works" with satisfaction and checked for survivors who had tried to fish in troubled waters by pretending to be dead.

"It's really dedicated, and at this time, I still have the heart to fry bread. The old man's doppelganger walked into a store, and he looked up at the middle-aged man behind the glass baffle. The bakery was overcrowded, and most of them were evacuees who had fled in temporarily, except for a small number of customers who had already been there.

People watched in horror as the hunchbacked old man walked slowly into the store, except for the middle-aged man, who finished the last plate of fried bread with a normal face.

"So, are you here for fried bread?" asked the boss.

"No...... However, if you have ingredients related to people here, I might be interested. This answer immediately sent shivers down the spine of the shopkeepers, who could see with their own eyes how the sentinels had been slaughtered by the monster as if they were really interested in human flesh.

"Boss, do you think you can save them?" the old man's gaze wandered back and forth in the crowd, completely treating them as lambs to the slaughter. He regretted it a little—he had slaughtered too quickly in the excitement, and he had to keep it until the adults found Phoenix, so he had a lot less fun.

So he decided to slow down the sweeping a bit.

"No, you can't. ”

The boss replied truthfully: "I'm just a middle-aged uncle who can make fried bread, and I always fry bread because of my absence...... However, as a local, I would like to kindly remind you that the market area of the royal capital has always been known for being a mixed bag, and I wonder if any of the guests is a hidden person, so I will always be very careful when doing business......"

"In that case, then it's better to start with the 'cautious' you. ”

The old man smiled and raised the boning knife in his hand.

However, in the next moment, the boning knife and his entire right hand were reduced to ashes, and he turned his face sideways in shock, and looked into the crowd, and the red flames that followed took over all his vision, and after devouring the old man, the flames did not stop there, and in the blink of an eye, the sudden flames converged into a spiral-shaped wave of fire, and the old man who was rushing towards the fried bakery melted into residue as soon as he touched the flames.

Everything in the bakery seemed to be on fire, and the most striking thing was that the townspeople were clearly in the center of the flames, but they were not affected in the slightest, and a few people with more curiosity still put their hands into the flames and tried a few times.

They were no strangers to the red flame, which some members of the Divine Bird Cult would use. But no one has ever seen a person who raises his hand and makes the whole block burn!

The young man's entire face was hidden under the cloak, and when he had done all this, he put the fork back in the middle of the plate. The young man got up and reached out to a young girl who was eating with relish not far away, and people involuntarily made way for him.

"You...... Who are you sacred?"

"Are you also a member of the Divine Bird Sect!?"

In the face of people's continuous questioning, the young man's footsteps never stopped. The little girl who was held by him hesitated for a moment, her gaze wandered between the crowd and the youth for a long time, and she asked suspiciously, "Why don't you answer them?"

The young man did not answer her question, but increased the force of his hand.

"Gone, Luna. ”

......

Pink Jenny, second floor.

"President Nightingale, the luggage is ready! The ship is also docked in the harbor, and we can go to Solan Harbor at any time!" the masked woman, who hurried upstairs, reported to the Nightingale who was standing at the window with her back to her. They really admired the eye of the Nightingale President, who had just said that the king was going through a drastic change, and the market area was said to have been completely attacked by a group of strange people.

Fortunately, Pink Jenny was still quite a distance away from there, and it was not affected immediately.

Nightingale's eyelids jumped, and she had a faint premonition in her heart, which she hadn't felt in a long time except the time when Farlane told her about the plan to attack the imperial capital. The attack was faster than she expected, and much more intense - it was no longer a matter of sneaking into assassination, but a naked attack on the capital of the Kingdom of Talen!

"Go to the port. Nightingale commanded.

Can't wait any longer.

By the time she reached the port, the Silent Rose had already assembled on the beach, and when they learned of the retreat plan, the trained Assassins had set up their outfits that night, ready to leave at any time if they had given the order of the chief. However, when she walked onto the beach, the uneasiness in her heart deepened.

Even the waves seem to smell the upheaval, and the rolling waves seem to be a giant beast that will wake up at any moment. The waves in the distance are one layer higher than one layer, and any experienced sailor would never advise to go to sea in such a situation.

"You see, there seems to be something in the waves. ”

After a while, there was a whisper from the crowd.

"Don't scare yourself, it's just a normal wave...... Although it is indeed a little higher. ”

"Oh, maybe I'm too nervous. ”

Nightingale rubbed her temples gently, and as soon as her assassins spoke, she had the illusion that she had vaguely seen the waves rolling up one after another.

The next moment, there was another commotion in the crowd.

"Yes...... It's a monster!"

This time, what they saw was not an underwater eye or a giant shadow swimming, but a huge figure on the surface of the sea. The small half of the body that only protrudes from the sea is several meters high!

With the roar of the beasts, more than a dozen monsters of similar size emerged from the water.

"It's not a monster. ”

Looking at the group of monsters that were gradually approaching the land, the nightingale murmured, "It's a small demon tide!"
