Chapter 166: Out of the City
Gilded Rose Tavern, Dark Night.
In the imperial capital, there are countless taverns of this size, and every few streets you walk through, you can find one or two taverns that have not yet closed. The tavern is exquisitely decorated, and due to the high fees, there are few drinkers. In the huge tavern, the two masked people in the corner are particularly eye-catching.
The two of them didn't care about the stares of the people around them, and the stout man in the bear-faced mask spread out the note full of names and placed it on the table.
The day's efforts paid off, with two of the three officers in charge of investigating them dead, one remaining in a state of confusion, and the Kingdom Army in such disarray that the soldiers were terrified at the mention of the Masked Quartet, fearing that they would be the next target of their attack.
The sensational effect they were looking for had already been achieved, even at the cost of two of their companions.
"Bear Head, did you find that kid you met in the morning?" the crane-faced man asked in a low voice.
Causing a sensation and making the nobles panic for a long time was only the first step in their grand plan, it was only a disadvantage to the nobles of the imperial capital, and after that, it was the most important thing that they would imprint their names in the history of Horutia so that people would always remember this lesson.
"Tyre Cyrius. ”
Bear Head was silent for a moment, then replied.
This was not good news, it didn't take much effort for him to learn about Lin Qiu from the Wang Kingdom Army who had been taken away by him, and they obviously didn't have the ability to kill each other now. Therefore, Xiongtou thought for a moment before saying, "Let's forget about that kid first, we should focus more on the work at hand." ”
He turned the paper over, and on the back of the white paper, only a few words were marked with a red pen.
The Don Quixote family.
If they want to bring down this family, they need more strength.
"Tsurumian, it's time to contact that adult. He proposed.
They didn't know much about the self-proclaimed aberration, and the only thing they knew for sure was that it was someone who was locked up at the bottom of Spiral City. In the past, the contact method was through the Crane-faced Man, and since the first time the aberration found them, the Crane-faced Man has established a subtle connection with the other party.
The distortion also helped them escape from that prison as agreed.
"Wait a minute!"
The crane-faced man was stunned for a moment, and the invisible bond in his body suddenly beat extremely strongly: "That adult is around here!"
Before he could finish speaking, a tall, thin, sloppy man walked in through the open door, and most of the half-drunk drinkers showed disgusted expressions, and the owner behind the bar seemed to treat the other party as a beggar, and had no intention of entertaining him at all. The sloppy man ignored the glances that everyone was looking at him, and went straight to the table for two.
"That thing inside you is called the Plague. He was the first to speak, "Tell me why you have summoned me." ”
In fact, the first time he felt the summons was more than half an hour ago, when he was trying to persuade Lin Qiu to join the gang at Alyssa's manor, and when he felt the summons of the crane-faced man, he had to leave first. Bear Head and Crane Face stared at the aberration for a long time before they determined that he was the big man at the bottom of the prison.
"We" The crane-faced man glanced at the bear's head, and stopped talking.
Instead, Bear Head took his words and said, "We need more strength!"
"Why?"
"We want revenge on the Don Quixote!" the bear-headed man said with hatred.
Every time he thought of his powerlessness in front of Gawain Quixote, the anger in the bear-headed man's heart grew even stronger. Not only him, but the four of them, who were once candidates for the Inquisition, should have a brighter future, but that man actually threw them into that prison full of prisoners because of some indiscriminate trivialities!
"You can gain more power after you die. ”
Distortion said lightly.
"What do you mean by that?"
"Since you have chosen the path of revenge, you will have to pay the corresponding price. To maximize the power of the Plague Seed, you need to replenish it with energy through your own life force. Well, the deal between us is over, and I helped you escape from Spiral City, and it's none of my business to take revenge on you, or challenge the entire aristocracy. ”
As he spoke, Distortion couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
Revenge on the Don Quixote?
This is just their wishful thinking, as long as Gawain is still in the imperial capital for a day, they will be ruthlessly trampled on like they were in the past. However, with the ridiculous hope that the moth would die like a fire to the fire, it might be the best ending for them.
With that, the distortion severed the connection with the crane-faced man, and walked out the door without turning his head.
"Wait a minute, what you just said is true!" Bear Head excitedly stood up from his position and questioned the aberration, "As long as that seed draws enough energy, it can gain enough power for revenge, right?"
Distortion stared deeply at the bear's head and nodded.
The more chaotic the imperial capital, the better it was for him.
Monsters appeared one after another, and the nobles were constantly attacked, as long as these things lasted for a few days, and he didn't need to do anything, the church would be forced to send people to suppress it.
With this in mind, the aberrant received a slap on the back of the head as he walked out of the bar door.
"You guys"
Distortion covered the back of his head with his hand, looked at the bent iron rod in Lin Qiu's hand, and asked, "It hurts, what are you doing?"
"Don't be long-winded, we're here to help you!" Phoenix also held a similar iron rod in his hand, and swore solemnly, "Don't you want to escape, we'll help you escape to another world!"
"Hey, who's going to run away to another world!"
"What are you talking nonsense, Phoenix? We were just asked to move you out of the city, and then again, don't we blame you for all this? Now that the whole city is under martial law, and the knights of the church have blocked the streets, in short, until we come up with a solution, please go to the other world and wait in peace!"
"Haven't you gone to another world after talking for a long time!?"
A few minutes later, Lin Qiu and Phoenix wore a suspicious hood, pulled a tattered-looking truck, and headed out of the city with suspicious steps.
"Isn't it just pretending to be dead after talking for a long time?" distorted Distortion who was lying under a pile of licorice and disguised corpses complained dissatisfiedly.
Just for this kind of trivial matter with no technical content, he received several blows on the back of the head. The most painful thing was that the iron rods in Lin Qiu and Phoenix's hands were all deformed, and he still failed to pass out.
After some questioning, I learned about the plan of the two.
Disguised as a corpse infected with the epidemic and leaving the city overnight, this method is indeed very thoughtful, but the means by which the two people carry out the plan are not flattering.
A trivial matter like pretending to be a dead person is too pediatric for aberration.
At this moment, his face was pale, and the skin of his arms was ulcerating, as if he had died of the epidemic.
"Hey, guys! Wait a minute!"
The church knights who had traveled all the way to Lin Qiu finally stopped them before they were about to leave the city.
"Honestly, what the hell are you doing here?"
