Even though Nils knew most of the Sanfan Street neighborhood by heart, as he got closer to the center of town, encountering patrols was inevitable. So they must now hide in the shadows, or they will only become prey exposed to the light. In this place, the only thing you don't need to worry about after being discovered is a retreat, because there is no retreat at all.

Going back and forth between shops was the only way to go, and the alleys were staffed two or three blocks adjacent to the center of town. And this also proves that what Nils wants to figure out is definitely something very important, otherwise they wouldn't have spent so much money to have the otherwise lazy gang members patrolling around. It was clear that they had anticipated the possibility of intruders, and after Carl was discovered, the security level of Sanfan Street increased considerably.

"Looks like we've stabbed a hornet's nest. Freya retracted her head from the window and whispered.

"Did you see anything?" asked Nils.

"Three patrolling thugs, I dare say they're desperate to find the rats that have scurried here, and that's us. Freya shook her head.

"It's not good to compare yourself to a mouse. Nils smiled helplessly.

Karl glanced at the layout of the shop and spoke. "Okay, what now?" it was impossible to get out of the place where I came in, because it was under the sight of the mob. Exiting the main entrance was obviously too dangerous, and although there were no thugs looking at it for the time being, it could be exposed to the snipers on the roof. Outside the shop is a small open square, and the church is just a block away. Carl didn't expect to be in such a central location, which made it very difficult for him.

"We can't rush out, we can't be sure that there are no guys observing the square in the dark. Nils said after observing the small empty square for a while. "And I remember you were targeted by snipers before, right?"

Carl nodded, a slight look of annoyance, he didn't like the feeling of being treated as prey. If he could, he would have unscrewed the sniper's head with his own hands. "Yes, he spotted me, and I was naïve enough to think it wouldn't be too much of a problem to go on the roof. ”

"It's best not to make this negligence again, you must know that you are now facing not the knights of Arad but the rogue clown of Caller. Nils looked like he was joking, but his tone was serious. Of course, Carl also understands that he is indeed a little negligent, which can be a good joke, after this incident is over.

Freya interrupted the two of them, "If you continue to tease each other, then we'll sit here and wait." She complained.

"Sorry, Steele, a little distracted. Nils quickly apologized.

"Aren't you supposed to be in the northern snowy regions?" said Karl to Freya now that he couldn't move for the time being.

"What?" Freya's expression seemed to indicate that she was facing a stupid fool. "Are you sure you're going to ask me this now, in this situation?"

"It's just curiosity, we all know what we're going to do now. Carl patted the dust off his trench coat.

Nils glanced uncertainly at the slope of the small square, and after making sure there was nothing suspicious on it, he beckoned to the two men. "Follow me, bow down. He walked to the front door of the store with his body bowed, carefully pushed the door open, and then moved his body outside the store at the same body height. The two of them moved forward slowly in the same posture as him, where they could not even be normal upright animals.

This became a very simple situation, because judging by the current speed of the three men, as long as the possible sniper glanced slightly to the side of the small square, then he could easily send bullets into the heads of the three men in turn. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be visible from his position in the small square. Perhaps because it was thought that no one would be able to infiltrate such a place, the sniper's attention was relatively farther away in town.

There was an unknown sculpture in the small square, and the three Celestials didn't even know the name of the sculpture. Of course, they were not interested in learning about the story of the sculpture. It is difficult for the sculptures in such places to have a story that is deeply rooted in people's hearts, and most of them are just some scum who have specially built them to show off their image. For example, the gang leader who used to control this place, or some ignorant megalomaniac. They call this "art", and this art makes every normal person feel sick.

The three of them quickly passed through the small square with their bodies lowered and flashed into an art shop on the west side. Although there are wooden signs hanging from art shops, the goods in the store have long been looted. The place smells of death everywhere, as if no one ever really lived here. In any case, they had no way to get through the entire small square before the patrolling mob turned back, so they had to look for the next opportunity.

"Anyway, what do you care about? I don't think Khahlert has the ability to bring weapons of mass destruction from the Celestial Realm here. Freya said as she sat on a bench in the store.

"Don't doubt their abilities, otherwise they won't attack the imperial capital easily. Nils shook his head.

"I've actually always had questions about this. Freya sighed, not offended by Nils's words.

"Is there something else going on?" Nils was a little surprised, and Freya's words caught Carl's attention.

Freya said as she held her chin in her hand and looked out of the shop. "What to say, although we really didn't expect Kahlert's raid. But before they could attack, the power in the imperial capital was cut off for a strange reason. What is even more strange is that on the eve of Kahlert's attack, General Hawkeye Jack left the imperial capital with a large number of main forces and headed for the industrial area of Itan. ”

"And this kind of thing?" Nils closed his mouth in surprise, if it was all premeditated, then the guy who planned this conspiracy was really terrifying.

"In other words, the Imperial Capital Army will be defeated in the absence of the main force and the well-prepared Kallett army, and at the same time lead to the fall of most of the Imperial Capital and the capture of the Imperial Daughter?" Karl whispered.

Freya nodded reluctantly, "Although it is true that we have not been able to protect Her Royal Highness. ”

"It's weird, it's weird. Nils shook his head. "Maybe Callert came up with a more vicious ploy than breaking up the Ardennes garrison, damn Pierre. He said resentfully.

"We're going to catch that bastard. Karl said coldly. "Pierre, I'm going to finish him off sooner or later. ”

"Of course. Nils said solemnly.

Freya calmed her complicated emotions and stood up. "Anyway, for now we have to find a way to get to the church, it's time to go. ”

"Yes, you're right. ”
