116. Simultaneous assassination

On this sweltering and impetuous night, Pol once again fell into an irrepressible panic. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The last time there was such a riot was during the war, but even in that war full of dark box operations, the civilians did not suffer such a huge threat, after all, the purpose of the war is only to occupy the city, Almac can be said to be the greatest extent for the civilians to do nothing, except for a few lucky E civilians are almost unharmed, which is a small miracle for civilians who have become accustomed to becoming cannon fodder.

But this riot was different, and the pirates' goal was clear from the beginning, and that was wealth.

Where there is wealth, they will smash that place, plunder, and the last fire will burn that place to the ground, they are violent murderers, murderous executioners, they don't care about the lives of civilians, they destroy everything with impunity.

The chaos is spreading, like locusts gnawing away at the pirates who have eaten away at the port area, spreading death and chaos to other parts of the city, those who have fled, those who have resisted and been killed, those who have panicked, those who have endured the atrocities helplessly, they are powerless to resist the pirates' attacks, they can only let out a final cry, and then they are completely burned away by the flames of sin.

The screams of men, the screams of women, and the cries of children mingled to form a scene of hell.

At the same time, a man stepped forward.

Adam Smith led the Chamber of Commerce's escort from place to place in the city, trying to convince the city guards to resist the incoming pirates.

For this, he even promised a high reward.

But almost no one responded to his request, and the city guards were not outlaws, most of them had decent family businesses in the local area, so between life and wealth, they finally chose to save their lives. As for the responsibility of guarding the city...... Ha...... Can a group of defeated remnants be expected to have the determination to protect the city? No kidding, the truly courageous soldiers have long since died in the previous war. I can't say all of the rest, but most of them are just a bunch of waste who survive by timidity.

Adam Smith struggled to gather only two or three kittens, but he was not discouraged and turned his attention to other merchants.

Not only his chamber of commerce, in fact, as long as it has a little bit of strength, most of the chambers of commerce have their own guards, these guys who spend money and work are basically very similar to the private soldiers of the nobles, except that they are vicious dogs raised by merchants, there is no righteousness, there is no so-called dignity, they are purer than the private soldiers of the nobles, they are just wild dogs chasing gold coins.

In contrast, as a private soldier of a nobleman, at least he has the possibility of being promoted to a nobleman with an astronomical probability, and the guards of this group of merchants can only look at money completely, they have no future at all, and at best they can only become dogs chasing money, it is not that they have no ambitions, but they are purely lacking in strength and cannot be put on the stage.

Although there is no hope for the combat effectiveness of the Chamber of Commerce guards, but now even increasing the combat effectiveness of one person is necessary, Adam Smith fully understands the significance of the crowd tactics, in fact, relying only on the strength of Boer civilians is enough to defeat pirates of only a few hundred people, but there is no one to organize the scattered civilians, so the current situation is created.

Adam Smith wanted to bluff and make an assumption that he was evenly matched with the other side, with the Chambers of Commerce as many as the pirates as the core, and then rely on their strength to launch a counterattack, so that there might be hope to defeat the pirates.

With this in mind, Adam Smith once again set out to run.

The night under the crescent moon is reflected in the crimson flames, under this irritating darkness......

The dull dagger was silently handed to the merchant's neck.

The next moment, a cold ghostly light that dispelled all irritability flashed, and the dark black minions flicked open.

Wearing a heavy cloak and completely hiding himself in the darkness, a figure wielding a dagger shining in silver, appeared beside Adam Smith.

The air froze at this moment, and the guards guarding Adam's side were not able to react until this moment, and their big boss, food and clothing, and his parents were almost killed in their guards.

Regardless of their strength, their loyalty was undoubtedly guaranteed to be chosen as a guard by someone like Adam Smith in this situation, and after a short period of sluggishness, the guards finally reacted and pointed their swords at the sudden appearance of the black shadow.

"Stop it!!"

At this moment, Adam Smith, who was shocked into a cold sweat, spoke: "Put down your weapons for me, can't you see that this gentleman is here to save me?"

Then he turned his gaze to the man standing in front of him.

"You are the famous silver, and I Adam Smith will remember your saving grace and will repay it in the future. ”

Silver didn't answer, instead staring into the void.

"It's ironic. From the void came a distinctive, featureless voice that I had heard somewhere: "Last time, you were going to kill someone, I wanted to save people, but this time it became that I wanted to kill, you came to save people, and the position was completely reversed, and there is nothing more wonderful about life than this." ”

Then, the man who would definitely forget his appearance after seeing it appeared in front of everyone.

"Why do you want to stop me, Silver, if you want to be a complete enemy of Bol?"

The eyes hidden under the cloak stared at each other silently for a long time before he spoke in his signature hoarse voice, "The Duke has something to pass on to the man named Serra, and I will repeat it here." ”

"Uh......" Mr. Shadwa was stunned for a moment, and the originally boiling killing intent instantly turned into nothingness.

Silver paused, then said flatly, "Serra, don't interfere with my game. ”

"Above. ”

"That's it?" asked Shadwa.

"......" Yin looked at him wordlessly, obviously this was the answer.

"I see, I'll pass this sentence on to the eldest lady, it's really bad, in fact, we little soldiers are the saddest people, and we're all turned around by orders from above, right, Silver. ”

"......" replied to Mr. Secret Agent, still as silent as ever.

"So, that's all for today, looking forward to seeing you at the base camp next time, my ...... Colleague. ”

With that, Mr. Shadwa's figure once again disappeared into the darkness.

In their place, only the guards and thoughtful merchants of the great enemy were left, and the legendary Bol Assassins who were always on the alert.

Putting away the dagger, Silver quietly turned to Adam Smith in front of him.

"So, can I assume that you represent the will of the great Duke Van der Almac?" said the merchant with an unusually calm face to the Assassin who could kill him at any moment.

"Take your son, the Duke wants to see you and keep you safe. The Assassin spoke

"No, until then, I have to find a way to solve this riot!"

"This farce is coming to an end. No emotion could be heard from Silver's words, and he spoke calmly in that hoarse voice.

Hearing Silver's words, Adam Smith was slightly stunned, sighed helplessly for a long time, and nodded obediently.

The great crisis in his eyes was nothing more than a small farce in the eyes of others, and the businessman, who had almost lost his life to this farce, once again felt deeply powerless.

【Merchant...... Is it powerless in this world after all......]

In the mind of this wealthy businessman, such a thought could not be suppressed. (To be continued.) )
