Chapter 263: Magician

Sharpster was soon put under martial law, and although it had been peaceful for a long time, the strict observance of the wartime system had long been in the blood of every Sharpster. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

When the bell of the guard rang, and when the heralds on fast horses spread the martial law to all the streets and alleys, the people of Sharpster who obeyed the rules immediately packed up their belongings and returned to their homes, quietly waiting for the martial law to be lifted, and the caravans that passed by here to rest were soon invited back to their inns where they were resting.

No one would choose to be brain-dead and refuse the advice of a town soldier. And it's when the alarm bells are ringing in town.

Soon, the streets of Sharpster, which had been bustling with activity, were deserted, and the breeze rustled through the treetops, making everything seem so quiet.

Soon, the tranquility was shattered, and groups of town guards, groups of soldiers of the families who had surrendered, began to gather and gradually liquidate the families of the rebel members.

Although, these families also know that it is the day when the new lord takes office recently, and they know that there may be some trouble recently, but they didn't expect the other party's methods to be so ruthless, so decisive, and dare to pay off the nobles on such a large scale, even Queen Catherine would not do it easily. And the speed was so fast, they didn't even know that their family's representative stationed in the City Lord's Mansion had been killed.

Therefore, although the alarm bell was heard, the heads of these families were holding a family meeting to discuss whether or not to send troops.

Since it is a discussion, it is natural to divide into two opposing camps: hawks and doves.

The hawks said that since they don't know the news now, they should decisively send scouts and liaison officers to get in touch with their people in the city lord's mansion and ask about the authenticity of the assassin incident, if it is true, confirm the lord's injury, whether his family has the possibility of replacing the other party, and so on. Most of these people are young and strong, and their newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, and they expect to make some achievements. In Kennan's words, he always wants to make big news.

The doves said that since the city lord's mansion has issued martial law, then it must be implemented well, don't have any luck mentality, don't be unhappy with the city lord because of some small things, things can't be in a hurry, and the family inheritance does not rely on one or two big victories, but the steady development of the long stream.

Just when the hawks and doves were arguing regularly, the army outside arrived, and without a trace of nonsense, they directly surrounded each other's mansions, and then pushed the improvised cart and began to storm the gate of the mansion.

This kind of siege equipment against small city gates is naturally invincible against the gate of the mansion, which is made of thick wooden planks, and with two booms, the gate reveals two large holes of different sizes. Then the door with the latch smashed open was naturally pushed open by the wolf-like soldiers outside, and a group of soldiers with long knives and spears rushed in according to the formation.

The archers began to climb the walls of the houses, occupy the high ground, and then suppress the people in the courtyard.

Although the various noble families had recently made some preparations and gathered their soldiers, due to their optimistic estimation of the situation and their unfamiliarity with Kennan's unconventional methods, they were not even prepared for the attack of many soldiers, and many of them did not even have standard weapons, so they had to temporarily carry brooms to meet the enemy. However, these hastily prepared soldiers were quickly knocked to the ground, some were killed, and those who survived were taken prisoner and sent into the mines, where he would later regret why he had not been killed on the battlefield.

When these soldiers arrived in the conference room, the leaders of the nobles who were in the meeting came back to their senses and asked why these soldiers were carrying knives into their mansions, whether there was any misunderstanding, there were people in the city lord's mansion, and they wanted to see the city lord's nonsense.

And these soldiers had been told in advance not to believe any words of these nobles, just kill each other. Most of these soldiers are from civilian backgrounds, and they have a natural evil feeling towards the nobles who are high, and now that they have an opportunity to kill the nobles in a dignified manner, how can they let it go, there seems to be a trace of inexplicable excitement in the hearts of each soldier. Maybe it's the desire to destroy.

Naturally, the soldiers who had been instructed were not intimidated by the nobles' words, but rushed towards the nobles with their spears raised, and the archers standing on the high walls also shot arrows at these nobles.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The sound of arrows breaking through the air rang out, and a volley of sharp arrows was fired at the unprepared nobles.

In an instant, several nobles were shot to the ground, lying on the ground without knowing who was wrong, and more dodged the fatal parts, covering the place where they were hit by the arrow, and fell to the ground and rolled around.

Just as the nobles were about to be wiped out, three knights in heavy armor stepped out of the crowd, two of them fending off the pikemen with spears in hand, and one of them rushing up the wall to kill the pesky archers.

I saw a knight in heavy armor jump over the wall more than three meters high after running a few steps, and then kicked down one of the archers above, then drew the big sword at his waist and slashed at the archer in front of him.

Seeing this, the archer was also decisive, decisively threw away the longbow in his hand, and then pulled out the military hoe in his waist to prepare to counterattack, as a result, he just used the military hoe in his hand to block, the military hoe in his hand was cut in half, just when he was stunned, a sharp pain came from his waist, he looked down, but found that his upper body was constantly sliding forward, and then he didn't know anything in front of him.

"Be careful!" Suddenly a shout came from below, and the heavily armored knight on the wall was stunned, "Isn't this Carter's voice, why is he shouting to be careful, is he shouting at me, I don't have any problems here." Just as he was wondering, he suddenly felt a pain in the back of his neck, and then the tip of a sword pierced out of his mouth, and he struggled to say something, but he didn't say anything, and fell down in the darkness before his eyes.

Just as Jamila drew her sword and was about to find her next target, suddenly, a huge fireball flew out from the crowd below, and the fireball flew towards Jamila as if it was about to devour her.

The speed of the fireball was too fast, and it was too late for Jamila to escape, just as she was disheartened and wanted to meet death, a translucent light mask suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, and a huge fireball hit the light mask, flashed a few times and disappeared, as if nothing had happened.

Jamila opened her eyes, and she happily shouted to the young man who suddenly appeared next to her, "Master." ”

"Well, stand down, and I'll leave that magician to deal with. Kenan said lightly.
