Before the cold female voice fell, Loki ignored the feeling of suffocation, and his left elbow turned back fiercely.

Loki's reflex nerves are higher than normal.

After feeling the direction of the back of the person's arm, you can make an accurate and quick judgment.

But his idea quickly fell through, and the elbow that hit back didn't feel like a blow, and before Loki could make the next move, he felt a pain in his ass and a heavy kick on it.

The woman who attacked Loki was obviously much stronger than him, and Loki was kicked forward, and he wisely didn't look back, rolled on the ground, and quickly got up and ran forward.

'It's in the direction of the entrance to the circus, and you might be fine if you run out. His mind was thinking quickly, "I had clearly observed my surroundings just now......

Obviously there is no one, why ......... Before he could think about it, a shadow seemed to cover it, and Loki looked up sharply for a moment, and immediately felt his neck tighten again.

What appeared in front of Loki's eyes was Olivia, a female dwarf with braided blonde hair and a human girl who looked like a human girl from the circus performance just now.

A hand clamped his neck tightly, and there was a suffocating sensation in Loki's throat, and he struggled a few times, the dark green octagonal hat on his head fell off, and the dark golden bird's nest-like hair and half-elf pointed ears were exposed.

"The little bastard who stole more than one person in my place and then tried to escape, is still a little half-elf. ”

The cold female voice slowly sounded in his ears, and Loki barely looked at the dwarf in front of him who looked like a little girl, shorter than himself, but he had no power to resist.

"Tell me your name? ”

The strength in Olivia's hand decreased slightly, and Loki barely squeezed out the sound between his teeth, "Loki"

The feeling of suffocation and lack of oxygen slowed Loki's thinking a little, and despite the fact that the dwarf was a woman and had the appearance of a human girl, she clearly lacked compassion.

However, he could also feel that the other party was just trying to teach him a lesson, and he didn't look like he wanted to kill himself.

In Loki's drooping arm, he quietly shoved a piece of the exposed knife back into his sleeve. At the same time, his tongue closed slightly, and a sharp blade was covered again. Since the female dwarf did not want to kill him, in the case of being crushed by the power, do not resist and provoke her again.

"Loki, a little half-elf?"

Olivia's voice was no longer so cold, just looking at the hidden movements of his hands, her face was a little playful and mocking.

"Fuck off, it's not as easy as kicking your ass when I see you stealing here. ”

Olivia finally let him go completely, only for Loki to get another kick in the ass, not as hard as before.

didn't dare to say a cruel word, and Loki, who was silent, ran away very familiarly. From time to time, he quickly turned his head, and in the state of the optic nerve quickly recording images, he found that Olivia didn't care about his little role at all, walked out of the circus, and quickly disappeared from his sight.

Loki rubbed the red mark on his neck, the pain gradually subsided, there were too many things in Fog Castle City that threatened his life, in fact, this danger was nothing, at least he didn't beat him because of his status as a half-elf, and even worse, he would take pleasure in killing children of different races, anything could happen in this dark background.

......

He recovered for a moment when no one was around, and the scorching hunger in his stomach came again, and it was getting late, and there were not many spectators left in the circus, and Loki chose to leave.

Loki clasped his dark green octagonal hat tightly on his head, and walked outside the circus, following the departing crowd.

Outside, there were some filthy and skinny beggars, begging at the crowd from time to time, 'All right, ma'am', 'Please, give me a copper', 'Have mercy on me, sir.'

For this situation, most of the local people or merchants who come and go are commonplace, frowning and waving to drive away the beggars, or some of them beating, scolding, making fun of and insulting people, and there are also very few people who hold poor children who will take out some food or copper.

A chaotic noise came from a distance, mixed with faint cries, Loki frowned, the voice was small, but he was somewhat familiar.

Loki moved briskly through the crowd, moving closer to where the sound was coming from, and he controlled the system with his consciousness.

"Ultron, I've heard this voice before, analyze it, and compare it with what I remember. ”

"No, Master, there is no relevant functional program, and it is not possible to carefully analyze the sound waveform. ”

The biological computer is obviously not omnipotent, when it was implanted in the brain, it was only a clean version of the semi-finished biological computer, without any program functions, and the Ultron program that took Loki several years to build was only the most basic low-level bionic operating system with few functions, and it did not have the function of analyzing sound waveforms.

There was no need for a systematic analysis of whose cry it was, and Loki quickly saw what was happening.

Four-year-old Hazel's face was half red and swollen, her half-short hair was stained with dirt on the ground, a cut was made on the back of her already tattered clothes, and blood began to drip from the dirt on her elbows.

Hazel had never cried so loudly, and the last time she had heard Hazel cry was when she was two years old, when she had just been abandoned and moved into a dilapidated house, which is why Loki's memories were so far away.

Lame Lynn and red-haired Ned usually take care of a four-year-old girl like a big brother.

But now, they were no longer able to protect Hazel, and Lynn was knocked to the ground, curled up in a ball and beaten by several big, tattered children. Ned next to him was still standing, but his condition was not much better, but his face was covered in blood and fighting people, and he was besieged by three or four older children without any way to fight back.

A fourteen-year-old boy was smiling and cross-legged beside him, looking mockingly at Lynn and Ned, who were clutching the money bags, and his identity was obviously a beggar.

They were all beggars of the Seventh House, led by the strong fourteen-year-old Carré, who specialized in extorting money from other beggars for a living, and taking pleasure in beating and abusing other beggars of an even younger age.

The circle next to it was full of people watching the excitement, and no one would step forward to stop it.

Loki only felt a burst of blood red appear in front of him, his breathing gradually became rapid, and the anger, coldness, and cruelty that had accumulated in his heart surged into his brain little by little at this moment.

'Click,' and he tore off one of his sleeves with all his might, and then, with a quick knot, tied a knot tightly at one end of the sleeve, crouched down and grabbed a handful of gravel throwers, poured them into the sealed broken sleeves, and tied a strong dead knot to secure the stones.

Loki clutched the makeshift weapon in his right hand, and in the shadows, no one noticing, walked behind fourteen-year-old Carré.

Carré said leisurely: "You little sluts who have no one to raise, you don't even take the initiative to send the money to me. ”

"I'm going to make you more afraid of me than Quaid............"

Suddenly, there was a low sound of stones rubbing against each other, and his arrogant shouting suddenly stopped, as if he had been trampled on the neck of a duck.

With Loki's round simple sling, Carré was hit hard in an instant, and he only felt a sharp pain in his lower back, and his body stumbled with inertia.
