CHAPTER XVII
Yulina is a very hard-working girl, and because she comes from a civilian background, she always needs more effort to be recognized, even if she is already very talented. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
So even on the airship, even on the way, Yulina did not refuse the invitation, and sang her new song very generously and naturally. The beautiful singing voice brings everyone the ultimate enjoyment. Yulina, who is worthy of the title of Siren, charms everyone with her singing voice.
She danced gracefully on the stage with the focal length of the lights, completely immersed in the songs performed, and did not pay attention to the stage accidents at all.
Of course, if you have stage experience, you will understand that when the lights are on, the world outside the stage is pitch black for the performers. Even if you want to see something, you can't get it right.
The song is only 4 minutes long, and Yulina is gradually standing in the center of the stage. However, just as the song ended, Yulina was about to bow and curtain call, when the unexpected happened.
"Danger!"
The roar disrupted all the atmosphere, and a figure flashed towards the stage at great speed.
"Phew!"
Gunshots!
Everyone's hearts were shocked.
The most surprised was Yulina, she looked at the figure that suddenly appeared in front of her at a loss, but before she could see clearly, the sound of the gun had already reached her ears, and she saw the figure in front of her draw her knife at a speed that ordinary people could not see, and a bright spark flashed in the air.
This man, with a knife, cut off the bullet!
"Attack!" the nobles who reacted quickly had already begun to shout, and the guards of the nobles who had been guarding around also rushed into the room, each protecting their employers. There was chaos at the scene.
The same was true of Yulina's bodyguards, who were heavily protected by the guards within 5 seconds of the gunshot. Even the figure who saved her just now was separated.
Despite this, Yulina could see clearly the figure in front of her, it was the noble knight she had met in the morning, the egret.
However, the egret did not turn his head to comfort the frightened singer now, but stared closely at the direction where the bullet was fired.
Nina and Egret became familiar with each other in the battle and formed a unique tacit understanding. After such an accident, Nina stopped sitting at the table and quickly stood beside the egret. In this case, the only person present who has a professional to resist the gunfire is Nina, who is more powerful, except for the egret.
Nina's title is the Juggernaut, and she never lets her weapon go. So Nina is not empty-handed, and the blessing of the fairy is a divine weapon with the ability to change her own form. Nina, who was wearing an evening dress, changed the fairy blessing into the form of a pendant, which was hanging on her chest at this time, and Nina's right hand had already held the pendant.
However, the shooting only happened once, and after a period of chaos, the frightened nobles gradually regained their calm as the guards entered.
Nina and the egret exchanged glances.
"It was a shot from the outer roof of the airship. Egret knew what Nina wanted to ask, and said with certainty.
Nina nodded, "Go check it out." ”
"Understood. ”
With Nina's ability, even if there is any more attack, she can easily block low. The egret was very relieved about this, and saw that Nina had protected Yulina intentionally or unintentionally, so he put away the backlight and prepared to go to the place where the bullets came from.
"Wait, Your Excellency Knight, let's go too. "The captain was scared enough at first, but he recovered quickly, and it was obvious that he had experienced a big scene. "First mate, you arrange for the guests to leave the outer deck first, military attaché, you take someone and we'll go and have a look. ”
The military attache paused for a moment, as if he had not reacted from the attack just now, and slapped his face with both hands. The airship escort who was in charge of security behind him stepped forward, and he recovered and chose a few people behind him.
Something like this happened on his own airship, and the captain's anger and horror almost filled his heart. This is no longer an ordinary small incident, this is enough to affect the airship operating company, if you can't give an explanation to the passengers as soon as possible, I'm afraid you don't have to end this trip, you will be dismissed!
"Your Excellency the Knight just said that the attacker was shooting from the roof of the airship, which is a no-go area, and only a certain ID card can open the security door to get there. Ordinary people can't go up. The captain affirmed.
The egret nodded, and then followed the captain and the military attache to the group.
The security gate to the airship's roof was not close to the outer deck, and the group passed through the casino complex set up on the upper level before reaching a single wide security gate. A magic guide is set up next to the door, which is a security device that needs to be used to verify identity. The captain then took out the special identification card on the airship and opened the door for everyone.
Through a staircase that goes up and down, the egret followed the captain and his party to the roof. The canopy was not large, and it was easy for the egret to see the edge of the airship not far away, placing a swarthy sniper rifle at a glance.
The military attache quickly rushed to the sniper rifle and picked it up. "The advanced equipment of the Dean Empire, hunting sniper rifles!" Because of the holy spear Miria, the development level of the guns of the Dean Empire is generally higher than that of other empires, and the performance and type of firearms are far beyond the level of other empires.
This hunting sniper rifle is one of the high-ranking firearms in the Dean Empire, and ordinary people can't get it.
"It seems that the sniper has run away, leaving only the tools to attack. The captain slammed his fist hard.
"Is this the only way out of here?" asked the egret thoughtfully.
"Yes, it's impossible to go anywhere else. The airship has to resist wind resistance during flight, and the repulsion field is continuously turned on at the edge of the outer body, and even if it goes down from the direction of the outer deck, even if it is not seen by us, I am afraid that it will be repulsed and ejected. Descending from outside the passage is clearly suicidal. The military attache explained.
It seemed that the attacker had a pass-through identity, and the captain immediately thought of this. "There aren't many staff members who can come here, so I'm going to get the safety device records right away. ”
One of the airship escorts who had come up with him immediately returned to the passage to carry out the captain's arrangement.
"Weapons are also important clues. "Maybe you can see something out of it. ”
The military attache nodded approvingly, and then looked left and right at the firearm. Found on the butt of a sniper rifle, a pattern was carved. It was a venomous snake with scales, round in shape, with its head turned to the center at the tail, revealing a hideous snake head at the dots of the pattern, and its fangs were delicately depicted, extending long downwards from the open mouth of the snake's head.
"Bloodslaughter!" exclaimed the military attaché.
The name of the Bloody Forest represents the assassination of a group of the most famous killers in another world, almost without exception. If this killer organization makes a move, then Egret will save Yulina, which will be the first time that Bloodslaughter misses.
"What! you can't be mistaken!" the captain was incoherent in fright, if there was a bloody killer on this airship, it was no joke. Even if you add the guards of the nobles, you may not be able to resist the assassination of the bloodslaughterers.
The military attache shook his head solemnly, "I'm afraid this is no longer a problem we can handle, I suggest that we arrange for people to protect Miss Yulina, and at the same time inform the passengers not to move around and stay in the room." At least until they reach Starlight City, the airship must be under martial law!"
Egret had only heard of the name of the blood slaughter, and had not heard of any specific deeds, but looking at the solemn expressions of the captain and military attaché, he also realized that the attacker was probably not so simple.
However, just hiding in the room can you avoid assassination? Egret disagrees in his heart, "There are not many people on the airship itself, and there are only more than 200 people when you count the full crew, and there will be no more than 300 people working on the airship. And the person in charge of security can't guarantee the safety of everyone, and it's not as easy as finding the killer. ”
"The killer's target is only Miss Yulina. The military attache retorted, "I don't think the other passengers are in danger." Therefore, it is the best thing to set everyone up so that there are no accidents before arriving in the City of Starlight. ”
"Do you want to protect yourself?" Egret comes from a world of information explosion, and even if he is inexperienced, he will not even be unable to understand such a straightforward approach.
The military attaché's expression sank, "What did you say?!"
"I don't even have the courage to look for the killer, I just want to keep my own measures safely, such a tired thought, it's no wonder that the killer will board the airship. "The egret was unceremonious, if he hadn't saved Yulina, this group of people would probably have to pay heavy responsibility for the attack, and now that there is no real accident, the first thing that comes to mind is to use martial law measures to alleviate the punishment that he may receive, which is really infuriating.
To put it simply, if there were any more assassinations, the military attache in charge of security on the airship could say that he had taken measures, but the reason that the killer was too powerful to protect the passengers would be mitigated. After all, no one can blame a security guard who can't stop the assassination of the Bloodslaughter, because no one has ever stopped it.
"You guy!" the military attaché's expression distorted, and the guards behind him also looked ugly. However, the military attache immediately thought of something, and the corners of his mouth pulled out a mocking color: "Venerable knight, the ability of our group of people is far worse than yours, and they can only protect passengers, but the knight is so capable, it is better to find the killer on your own." I believe that with the ability of the knight, he will be able to capture the killer. ”
These words are obviously ill-intentioned, if the egret finds the killer, I'm afraid it will be a battle, it's better to say that it doesn't affect others, if something happens, I'm afraid the responsibility lies with the egret. And the fact that the killer could not be found proves that the military attaché's approach is correct, and it also shows the incompetence of the white egret.
The egret took a deep look at the military attache and suddenly laughed.
"It's a good plan, so please protect the passengers, killer, I'll find you." ”
