Early the next morning
"Ah, it's been a long time since I've put on this gear. "I got out of bed early in the morning, looked at the sleeping Irene, quietly walked out of the room, came to the weapons room, and gently stroked the tempered chain mail that a top blacksmith from Kulau had built for me half a year ago, and I couldn't help but sigh in my heart.
I put on this chain mail, carried a long sword on my back, put a fan-shaped shield on it, and finally grabbed a hand and a half sword and waved it, fortunately, the craftsmanship was still there, and then stuffed it into the scabbard around my waist. The sound of steel striking in the scabbard made my blood boil as a man who hadn't picked up a sword for a long time. Out of the house, I called my captain of the guard, Locke, to prepare to leave the fortress I had built on the outskirts of Kulau.
"Is there anything going on today?, why don't we go out with an escort?" asked Locke as he pulled out two blood-red hunting horses, placed the saddle lightly on the horse's back, picked up a bridle and put it neatly around the roaring horse's mouth, and asked strangely as he motioned for me to mount.
"Go meet someone!" I said without thinking, climbing on my horse, but then I felt something was wrong, "no, it's two." ”
"See whom?" Locke's horse usually wears a saddle and bridles, except for bathing and feeding, so he can climb directly onto the horse.
"You'll know when you get there, go!" I kicked the horse's belly, and the horse under my crotch began to gallop, this feeling of bathing in the morning breeze for a long time. For a year I often spent time in the beautifully decorated but dreary study, and only the daily sword practice with Locke in the square and the weekly "special program" could make me feel passionate, and sometimes lying in bed staring at the ceiling would even think of the days when I licked blood with Bob and Thomson, dangerous and exciting! Kurau was right in front of me, and though I didn't have the eagle-sharp eyes of Herb, I could still see the two sleepy-eyed and dozing guards. I don't know how the monster Herb and the three of them moved to the east of the Kugit grassland two months ago (don't think crookedly).
"Dismount!" the sound of the two of us galloping over still startled a yawning creep. When he opened his eyes, the two of us were already approaching the city gate, and he hurriedly stretched out a hand to stop our running horse, and said to me roughly.
"Don't you know who I am?" I was a little annoyed, but then I remembered that I was wearing a helmet on my head, leaving only a small slit to see the outside world. And my voice was blocked by the iron plate on my face, I couldn't hear it really, no wonder he didn't recognize me, usually I was wearing civilian clothes, these people nodded and bowed, after all, I was the biggest businessman in the area.
"I don't know what, you come down for me!" The little soldier didn't even recognize who I was, presumably a newcomer, and even stretched out his hand to pull me off his horse.
"Get out of here!" Locke waved his hand and knocked him to the ground, and when he was about to go away with me, the little soldier immediately opened his throat and shouted, "There are intruders!
"Crap!" we immediately drew our long swords on our backs, and saw the guards around us, who had been woken up by the screams, blankly drawing their swords and looking in all directions, but saw the two of us.
A man who looked like a captain immediately recognized me, slapped the bold guy with a big hand, and yelled at him: "I don't know if this is the famous Mr. Concord! Dare to be so presumptuous, if it weren't for the presence of the adults today, I would have killed you!" After teaching this guy a lesson, he turned around and said flatteringly: "I'm sorry for my lord, let him go once today." ”
It's really faster than turning a book. As I thought, I waved my hand and said, "Forget it, I'll let you go this time." He turned his horse's head and left the place.
This happened early in the morning, and the quality of the Kulau soldiers was getting worse and worse. Locke said with a smile.
"It's a time of war, and all the great guys have gone to the front to fight, so it's no wonder that the scum of these armies stayed here to defend the city. I couldn't help but say, and suddenly a shadow flashed over my head.
"Who!" the alert Locke drew his sword, only to see a brown clump of light and dexterity fall to the ground, which turned out to be the talon.
"It's Talon!" I asked, smiling.
"Mr. Callad, please come with me, this is not the place to talk. Talon saluted me and Locke, and walked out into a deep alley, where it was pitch black even in the early morning.
When the three of us disappeared into the darkness in front of us, I realized that it was a dead end, and I couldn't help but ask, "Isn't this a dead end?
Talon smiled, stopped, and reached out his left hand, which had no ring finger, and pushed a brick into the wall on the right.
"Boom" A huge stone door opened in front of us, and Talon led us inside.
Locke and I sighed as we walked through this dark cavern. It didn't take long for the light to appear.
"Welcome to our temporary base!" said Talon, who led the way, as he walked to the center of the underground plaza. At this time, several Assassin brothers like Talon appeared in the cave next to them.
"What are we going to do next?" I asked, Talon.
"You should have more than 100 troops, right?" Talon asked me again.
"That's right. Locke said for me.
"This guy Gangde came out with 200 guards, although for us, it's just a guard of honor. But assassination can become troublesome, and we need your troops to hold them back, so we can assassinate him.
"No problem, it was on us. Locke turned to leave, but I pulled him back.
"Wait, catch him, don't kill him. Bring him to me. I left this sentence and left the base.
Quick, pack your things, we're going to get ready to leave this place. As soon as I walked into the bedroom, I said to Irene.
"What's the matter?" Erin was much more mature than the weak little girl she had been a year ago.
"Leave it alone, I'll tell you when the time comes. "After I told Irene, I went downstairs to find Locke.
"What's the matter?" Locke was just about to enter the barracks when I stopped him.
"Call a brother and go to a nearby village and find Bob and Thomson who I need help with. I said to Locke. Bob and the others like to hunt, so they simply live in Vecchia, which has a lot of animals, and is usually in the village near Kurau.
"Okay. ”
After a while, Locke came out with his brothers in the barracks. Seeing the dense crowd of people in front of me, I remembered the days when I used to be a cavalry captain.
"Follow me!" I got on my horse and led my soldiers quietly to the outskirts of Kulau.
Five minutes later, we came to the side of what Talon said was the path of Gangde, and burrowed into the woods. It was winter, and our men put their white clothes over their armor and hid in the same white woods, so that they couldn't find us unless they looked closely.
There was a sound of leaves.
"What's the sound?" Locke drew his sword, stopped by me.
"Talon?" I asked, turning to the tree beside me.
"It's me. "Wait here, as soon as Gangde comes, you must rush out and hold them back." We'll take care of the rest. ”
"Okay. I shook the sword in my hand firmly. Although the weather was cold, my hands were already soaked in sweat because of excitement and inexplicable fear.
"How's it going?" Locke asked, looking at the sweat on my face.
"No problem, keep an eye on the road!" I took out my hand and wiped the sweat from my hand, and wiped the sweat from my hand on the tree, in case my hand slipped during the battle.
"Teng Teng Teng...," came the sound of horses' hooves.
I could see the snowflakes rising in the snow, and I could even see the helmets of the leading soldiers glistening in the sunlight.
"It's coming!" I gritted my teeth, excited and anxiously waiting.
After a few minutes had passed, Gonde's troops had gradually moved to the woods, and I could already see Gonde's thin but proud face. Seeing the mustache on his face fluttering in the wind, I couldn't wait to rush up and pull it off, and carefully admire the blood foaming from the gushing out.
I suppressed myself and stared at him as he shivered as he rode proudly on a tall horse. That disgusting face, getting bigger, bigger, bigger...
"Charge!" I screamed, brushing the branches off my body, drawing my sword from my back and slashing at the damn fellow. The surrounding guards were stopped by my brethren and could only watch in amazement as I slashed my sword at the bewildered Gangde.
Time seemed to freeze at that moment, and I sneered secretly as I watched the cold blade in my hand slowly approach the terrified face.
Suddenly, another sword flashed out from the right side, blocking my thunderous attack. I immediately got up when I fell to the ground, only to see a fierce guard holding out his sword and stopping me.
I was carried away by the rage, and was about to slash the guy to death with a single sword, when a silver light flew out and struck the guard who was staring at me.
Like an eagle, the eagle claw leaped from the canopy, the right hand pulled out the dagger, and the left hand went straight to Gangde's throat viciously in the shape of an eagle hook, "poof", the eagle claw's left hand choked Gangde's thin throat, kicked Gangde to the ground with both feet, and the right hand pierced Gangde's heart with a very fast light. Seeing that the enemy was about to die, I closed my eyes in anger, and I only hated myself for not slaying the enemy. Whew!"
I opened my eyes, only to see Talon's dagger in the snow. The talon that was crushing Gonde's throat flicked his left hand, and he flew towards me.
"He's up to you!" Talon flipped onto a man's back, twisted his body and jumped onto a branch, flickering through the bushes, and vanished instantly.
As soon as I grabbed my hand, I grabbed Gangde by the throat, pressed him into the snow, and picked up my sword.
"This punch is for my father!" I cried out, throwing my sword to the ground and slamming it into the bridge of Gonde's nose.
"Ahh I grabbed him and slammed my middle knuckle into Gonde's lower abdomen: "This punch is for Kalade!"
"Poof" Gangde spewed out a mouthful of blood, staining the snow red.
After vomiting blood, he raised his head and stared at me coldly: "Karad will surely perish, and Svadia will unify the whole continent!"
With that, he laughed.
"Die!" I was even more angry, striking him on the head. One punch, two punches, three punches...
"Poof!" I smashed the flesh on Gangde's face, revealing the bones inside, but I still didn't stop, still punching his ugly face. I could no longer hear the shouts of the people around me, only the monotonous sound of "tom, tom, tom..."
"Kara" Gonde's bones were broken. Finally, I stopped my attack, raised my bloody fist, and drew my short sword at my waist. A sword was sent, piercing his thin chest.
I slowly pulled the sword out of his chest, and sneered a few times as I watched Gangde's crippled chest steaming hot and a large pool of blood oozing from his back.
Locke took advantage of my daze to pull me back and said with an anxious face, "Let's go! We don't have the ability to kill these guys yet!!"
"Okay. "I slowly put the body on the horse that Gonder had used when he died, and stepped on the horse's back.
"Retreat!"
......
Back at the fort, I frowned when I saw Erin leading her servants to pack up three carts of things.
"What's wrong?" Erin saw me staring at the three carts in a daze, looking at me mischievously.
"It's okay, let's go!" Although it was said that it was nothing, but these three carts and things were not to escape, and it was difficult to get out of here, "Bob, what about them?"
"The two of them are coming over now, where are we going next?" said Erin, smiling with satisfaction as she bundled up the last packet of things.
"Go to Kugit and find them in Izhi, I heard that they have built a solid Black Flag Man Fortress, and there should be no problem where to hide. "I lifted Erin onto his horse, grabbed a large handful of money from the cart with the money, and distributed it among my soldiers and minions, leaving them to fend for themselves. There were only a few brothers left with us, "Thank you, thank you!" The frustration of the soldiers leaving the group after receiving the money was swept away, and as I watched them run away happily, I turned to Erin and said, "What are these three carts?"
"Food, clothes, gear, and my 'something'. Erin said, pointing to the largest package of the largest package.
"Something! If I believe your nonsense, I'm crazy. "I rushed up and pulled the three carts apart, and almost every bag contained the clothes and jewelry I had bought for Erin, stuffed full. I beckoned Locke and some of the guards to come over and threw a lot of inconsequential things to the ground, including Irene's gadgets, of course, and stomped them to pieces.
"Hey, what are you doing! let go!" Erin was immediately anxious when she saw the miserable state of her things. I rushed off the horse and tried to pull my hand away, but how could I have more strength than a woman like Erin?
The speed at which we threw things did not slow down in the slightest. After only 5 minutes, the dozens of sacks in front of me turned into a pitiful 7 bags. Looking at these little things that could almost be carried on my back, I patted them like Irene's done after packing up and smiled with satisfaction. The woman next to me was angry and kicked me hatefully.
"Put on your back, put the rest on your pack horse!" I commanded, pulling up my horse and preparing to go.
"Hey, hey, wait for us!" a familiar voice came from ahead. I squinted and saw three tall men riding towards me, the leader with blond hair standing out in the snow.
"Bob! "The three men were getting closer, and sure enough, it was Thomson and Bob, and the soldier I had sent out to find these two guys.
"Long time no see!" Bob, who hadn't seen me in a year, and the two of them were much stronger than before, "How's it going?"
"It's boring! It's better to fight. "I was tired of living in that splendid fortress made of stones, and I wanted to get out of it, but Irene refused. This time I killed Gangde, and I just happened to be able to leave here, killing two birds with one stone, why not?
