Twenty minutes later, Elivan took Pars, who was riding on a donkey, to a dark alley not far from the gate of Sam City, not that Pars couldn't walk, it was mainly the sequelae of being possessed by the ice fog monster before, plus running wildly to find clothes for Hawks, which increased the load on his body, and there was no trace of blood on a small face, although he didn't feel it deeply, but in the opinion of Elivan, who was sensitive to the elements, Pars's body had to recuperate for at least three years to recover, and the wisp of cold hidden deep in his body had already hurt his body origin。 Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Elevenn took out his pocket watch and looked at it, his face was a little solemn, and he turned his head and whispered to Pars, who was looking left and right,
"There are only two hours left until the second shift in the Black Prison, and we will wait another 30 minutes, and if Old Hall does not come, I will make a way out of it, and you and the donkey will go back to Bordeaux first, and I still have some things to do. ”
Pars is not a fool either, he listened to the conversation between Hawks and Elevenn throughout the whole process, how could he not know what this guy was thinking, he grabbed Eleven's arm, his face was serious,
"You guy, aren't you really going to rush into the Shadow Tower like this, do you? Calm down! Go back with us, and everyone will figure it out slowly!"
Eleven, on the other hand, looked directly at Pars with a dark gaze,
"My father is there, the enemy who killed Rhys and my mother is there, and Sass is watching me from heaven, and you make me choose to run away?"
"I..."
Looking at Elivan's bloodshot eyes, Pars's last words of persuasion also fell back into his stomach, he muttered to himself, but he took Elivan's hand and didn't let go,
"Don't forget Wendy, she's still waiting for you with gold-encrusted roses. ”
Hearing Wendy's name, the gloom over Elivan dissipated a little, but he was silent for a moment, but stubbornly turned around and wiped Pals's hand,
"She'll understand me, if, I mean, if I really don't go back, take care of her for me. ”
Pars was about to say more, but Elivan covered his mouth,
"Silence!"
Pars immediately closed his mouth tightly, and saw Elivan leaning his body against the corner, like a leopard staring at its prey, and after more than ten seconds, several voices of talking and laughing came, and it was three or four solemnly dressed Dharma Protectors, who seemed to be going to the lively commercial street after changing the guard from the city gate.
But it seems that they don't have that chance, just the next moment when the third person walked through the alley, Eleven, who had been waiting for an opportunity, made a move, and grabbed the neck of the guard in front of him with his cold left hand, and turned his head into a lump of cold ice after a second, Eleven, who flashed out of his body, looked head-on at the last person who had been stunned by the sudden attack, and showed a solemn smile to him, and the other hand was lightly pressed on his chest, almost exactly the same as the blow that killed Hawks, the only difference was the strength, it can be seen that Eleven's mood is very unstable now, With a "whoosh", the ice spike popped out, directly punching a big hole in the chest of the unlucky ghost that was frozen in an instant, and the heart that flew out smashed on the wall of the alley, making a "dangdang" sound.
"What are you!
The two guards who walked in front were attracted by the sound, and when they turned around, they saw the scene of the laughing companion lying on the ground, one immediately drew his short sword from his waist and shouted at Eleven, while the other was more intelligent, and felt the warning rune in his pocket and was about to crush it, but before he could exert his strength, a thick wooden stick struck him on the head without a helmet, and the poor boy rolled his eyes and fell to the ground limply, and the rune stone that flew out of his hand rolled twice in the air, and then landed firmly on Pars's left hand, and on his right hand was a bloodstained wooden stick。
"Ah!!h
Two seconds later, the last guy still standing was stabbed through his forehead by a flying sharp ice spike in the middle of a flirtatious waving of his short sword, and he collapsed among his companions with a look of reluctance.
"Look, I can still help!"
Pars tossed the warning runes up and down, and said with a smug smile at Elivan, who pulled out an ugly smile, and then bent down, stripped off the suit of armor that best matched his body of the four, and put it on himself, and finally put on the half-covered helmet, he raised his head, pointed to the alley where the two people were hiding just now, pulled out his silver pistol from his waist, and took out a very delicate box of magic mirror bullets, threw it to Pars, and said to him,
"You and the donkey stay there, this thing is for you, protect yourself, see you in 20 minutes!"
Pars took the pistol, skillfully turned it around in his hand a few times, popped out the magazine and looked at it, nodded with satisfaction, and walked back into the alley with the donkey, while Elevenn straightened his helmet, turned around and walked in the direction of the city gate, of course, he did not forget to throw down an orange spark, which fell on the stacked corpses, and the sparks immediately burst up, and then burned, and the vicinity was desolate, and the city gate was not too much for too many inhabitants to live, and the flames burned quietly, and in a short time, there were ashes.
----------------------------------
Just as Elevenn was stepping onto the gate of Sam City, which was still strong and tall on the entire continent, not far from the city, a large dust that could not be concealed was appearing out of thin air, but this was nothing more than ordinary for the Dharma Protectors who had been guarding the city gate.
Sam City was built in the gray and white plain in the middle of the continent, close to the narrow area of the Thirteen Nations Alliance in the north, and it is also the most prosperous area in the middle of the El Continent, and further north is the dragon canyon that is as barren as the gray and white plain, and some people make this giant canyon the dragon plain, in short, its area is larger than the gray and white plain and the land of the thirteen countries combined, the canyon is the paradise of the most difficult giant beasts and all kinds of dangerous creatures on the continent, and the erudite scholars cannot speculate the reason for the formation of the canyon, and naturally they cannot know why there are oases, deserts, swamps, and mysterious woodlands hidden in the deepest part of the canyon at the same time in a barren land, where you can find almost all the creatures on the entire continent, an absolute biological wonder.
But don't underestimate this barbaric territory that even human beings who have developed a magical civilization for thousands of years have not conquered, this canyon or plain is firmly blocked in front of the boundless barren rocky plateau, blocking the endless invasion of the barbaric and powerful orc tribes for the thirteen countries in the north and the dwarves and elves in the southern hills, of course, except for the sudden war more than forty years ago, it was the first time that human civilization and society came into contact with the barbaric orc tribe, and it was also that war, which brought the human " The illusory dream of the "King of the Primates of All Things" was ruthlessly broken, the thirteen kingdoms of Northern Xinjiang lost one-third of their territory in the first month of the war, killed and injured millions of citizens, the royal families of the three kingdoms were extinct, more than twenty great nobles were wiped out, and the entire Northern Xinjiang was in a panic, no one knew how those orcs crossed the Dragon Canyon silently, but they really came, not as slaves, nor as sightseers, but as conquerors.
Of course, we all know the rest of the matter, and the thirteen countries of northern Xinjiang united to issue the "Northern Declaration" After several years of hard fighting, the orc tribe that was messed up in the late stage of the war because the supreme commander and the big chief was sniped back to the barren stone plateau, but it also ended here, and in the present and the future for at least three centuries, that war is the most tragic memory of the human world, and it is also from that time that the Holy Del Empire, which was revived by Del V, began to expand again, and finally collected most of the Dragon Canyon in its own territory, and in that tragic and shaky black era, there were finally brave people who took over to resist those claimsThe banner of the "undefeated" orcs, the wise and always courageous emperor spent seven years breaking the orc's blockade of the further north, and finally found the mortal enemy of the orcs on the side of the barren stone plateau, the fierce barbarians from the northern tundra, and successfully signed a brotherly alliance with the legendary barbarian kingdom of Warlach, which was forever shrouded in ice and snow, and since then the orcs have been firmly locked on the barren stone plateau from the south and the north, of course, that is another story in history.
Turning his gaze back to the Gray and White Plain, it is not a simple matter to live in the central Gobi that divides the north and south of the continent, especially for the people living at the bottom, before the Northern War, the civilians here could still support their families by becoming mercenaries or joining the armies of the Thirteen Kingdoms of Northern Xinjiang, but after the Council of the Nine Towers ruled this vast and barren land, except for the Mage Association and the permanently neutral Mercenary Association, the other professional guilds were expelled from the Gray and White Plains by the arrogant and arrogant mages, making this place worthy of the nameIn the "City of Mages", the already small number of people were also ordered not to join the armies of other countries, otherwise it would be regarded as treason.
The decision made by the ignorant mages on the head did cause the number of low-level mages in the Nine Towers Council to explode in the next ten years, but at the same time, the average force value of the gray plains, which could have been called a fierce people, plummeted, and to this day, the people of this land are proud to be mages, and only those poor people who really can't survive will choose to become Sam City, and the only big city in the gray plains, they are called "Guardians of the Law" In fact, the quality of these guys can't even reach the level of the lowest-level patrol guards in Bordeaux City, but it's nothing, the mage masters will use invincible magic to solve all enemies, so the army is just an indifferent burden in their eyes.
Soon, though, these outrageous magical otaku with strong strength but low emotional intelligence will learn how important it is to have a formed, well-trained army.
"Khufu! take your brothers and get rid of those guys outside the walls!"
"Barak, get the wanderers ready, and as soon as Khufu gets his hands on it, deal with the fools patrolling the city walls!"
"The others followed me, and after the city gate opened, quickly dealt with the remaining guards, and then waited in place for the next order!"
Old Hall rode on the heavily purchased Nord steed, and gave orders to the captains behind him, and soon, this well-equipped and perfectly coordinated mercenary force was divided into three squads in the gallop, and two minutes later, the mercenaries who had been suppressing their horse speed and wearing yellow sand camouflage were already approaching the city gate less than 2,000 meters, and the leader Khufu glanced back at Old Hall, who nodded at him.
Khufu, who had been confirmed, took a deep breath, pulled down the camouflage on his body suddenly, clamped his legs hard, and the horse's speed immediately increased, followed by a small number, but absolutely enough barbarian or semi-barbarian squad, these violent guys let out all kinds of howls, brandishing weapons, only a dozen people played with the momentum of almost thousands of troops, at this distance, not to mention these soft-footed shrimp guards in Sam City, even the most elite "Golden War Spear" legion in Bordeaux City, it was too late to defend.
Fifteen seconds!
This is the time for the barbarian knights to deal with the nearly 100 guardians outside the city who patrol or serve as guards, those who have been frightened have not even reacted, dozens of flying axes with whistling sounds directly knocked down nearly a quarter of the people, followed by the barbarians one by one tall, red eyes, wielding a heavy axe or long knife that is one and a half people high, like a legendary demon swept the guards in a disorderly manner, tightly gathered together in a phalanx, horses' hooves everywhere, blood splashed, human heads flying。
At the same time as Khufu made his move, another group of wanderers who dismounted and ran to the corner of the wall took out a specially modified crossbow, pulled the trigger, and the three-split and extremely sharp steel claws flew into the sky, and then firmly buckled to the protrusion of the city wall, and these guys who relied on their agile skills and powerful perception to eat one by two like nimble monkeys quickly jumped on the leather ropes that were fixed behind the flying claws, and in a few seconds they came to the already chaotic city, and then drew the dagger or short sword at their waists, and a few of them who were particularly confident in their skills also took out strange xenomorph weaponsIn short, their killing efficiency is not much worse than that of the barbarians, and most of these guys have mastered the skills that one or two assassins are used to, either disappearing in place before the blade of the counterattack, or throwing a long flexible rope or two around the neck of the target, and with a sudden wail, one or two more tongue-long corpses will appear on the wall.
Barak is the leader of this group of wanderers, and he is also the great thief recruited by the Bordeaux Chamber of Commerce a few years ago (the wanderer is a branch of the stalker, and the big thief is the first rank of the high-level stalker, which will be explained in detail later), and even the certification issued by the stalker guild, the two swords, one long and one short, are simply played with the art of flowers in the hands of this guy, and any enemy who comes within three feet of his body will be cut miserably under the invisible blade, and he also took the time to perform the trick of killing four people with three throwing knives, but when he followed the blood trail to the headquarters of the city wall, but saw his target, the gate officer of the eastern part of Sam City, frozen in front of his ornate desk in a comical pose, his fat face still with the last fear of his life, and behind this ice sculpture-like ice, a small young man in the uniform of an ordinary guard was solemnly observing the killing outside through the window.
Just as Barak swallowed his saliva and was about to quietly exit the office, the young man turned around, and a pair of cold and merciless eyes fell on him,
"You're coming too slowly, old Hall?"
Barak didn't speak, but quietly touched a small bag around his waist with his left hand, and before he could open it, an arrow-like ice pick slashed across the back of his hand, leaving a bloody mark, and Barak's movements immediately froze in place.
"Stalker, assassin, or loiterer, if I'm not mistaken, that little bag contains blinding powder, and when I squint my eyes at the blinding powder, you're going to flash up to me with the shadow raid you've prepared, and stab me in the throat and heart with those two blades coated with some kind of poison? ”
Elevenn stretched out his finger, and a crystal ice arrow rolled on it, and with his other hand, he took out a black coat of arms and threw it at Barak, who saw through the attack, simply sheathed his sword, and reached out to take the coat of arms, on which a small golden rose was engraved.
"I'm not one of the lowly mages in Sam City, stupid people who haven't even seen blood, anyway, tell me the location of Old Hall, and then go on doing your thing. ”
When Barak saw the coat of arms, he put away his worries, he was a man of few words, so he pointed to a sand dune not far outside the city, but then pointed to the gate at his feet, Eleven nodded knowingly, and then raised his leg and walked towards the outside of the office, "In that case, I'll wait for him here at the city gate." ”
Just as the two of them were staggering, Barak suddenly spoke, his vocal cords seemed to have been injured, and his voice was unusually hoarse and unpleasant, like the cry of a crow, no wonder he always kept his mouth shut,
"How do you see through that?"
Elevenn paused, smiled and pointed to his eyes, then patted Barak on the shoulder,
"Don't let your eyes reveal your attack, your throat, your heart, your eyes are flashing but a little sharper, it's too hard to guess. ”
After more than ten seconds, Barak showed an ugly smile, he searched in his bag, then covered most of his face with a black cloth, and after making sure that it would not affect his movements, he disappeared into the office in a puff of smoke.
The commotion lasted for nearly five minutes, and after the old hall entered the city with the rest of the team, he saw Elivan, who had been dressed as a mage, standing in front of him with a smile on Pars, who had been riding on a donkey, and the old man, who had been strained since the beginning of Bordeaux, finally smiled, jumped off his horse, walked a few quick steps, and held the two children in his arms.
"Good boy, it's good to be safe, it's good to be safe!"
Pars recalled the entanglement of this period of time, and looked at the old Hall, who had not worn armor for more than ten years, put on leather armor again for him, and his eyes couldn't help but turn red, and he choked up and couldn't speak.
And Eleven's mouth just curled slightly, and then he asked Old Hall in a low voice,
"What is in the alchemy room, have you brought it?"
Old Hall glared at him, and threw over a simple black ring angrily, Eliven found out that it was a lowest-level storage ring, or the kind of inferior product that did not require soul binding, and as soon as his mind moved, an egg-sized magic crystal appeared in his hand, and then he nodded with satisfaction, and said with emotion,
"For the past five years, every night I will make a Burst Crystal, and then store it in a chest in the basement of the Alchemy Chamber, they are the collection of my memories of that night, and the end of the blood and tears of the Mogding family, five years, sixty months, more than 1,800 days, hehe, only Wendy knows this secret, but now is the time to make it public. ”
After saying that, he raised his head and looked at Old Hall, who was staring at him,
"Thanks, old man Hall, take Pars back, I still have some things to do!"
Old Hall stared at him for half a minute before turning away from him, and Elevenn smiled and turned away as well, disappearing into the dark alley a few seconds later, while Pars watched him until he disappeared.
Old Hall understands Elivan's character, and his unspoken decision means that it is negotiable, but if he tells you plainly that he is going to do something, then it can't be stopped at all, and the old man also knows how deep the blood feud on Elivan's body is, so let him go.
But they can't just go back, it's not done yet!
