Everyone inside the east gate held their breath, and they clung to the city wall, waiting for the arrival of the group of uninvited guests.
As the minutes ticked by, the ambushers counted their heartbeats, they didn't know what was going on outside, and time seemed to stop.
A long time had passed, and they still hadn't waited for the target that was so close at hand.
Alan cautiously stuck his head out, and he saw Sercy standing outside the east gate with Barton's horse, and the two seemed to be talking, but the wind and snow became their most advantageous cover, and he couldn't hear what the two were talking about, and the knight who was accompanying him also stopped.
A hint of uneasiness appeared in Allen's mind, and his worst fears might be about to happen.
"What's the situation?" Kenny asked softly, patting Alan on the shoulder.
"The prey has stopped outside the gates," Alan looked back at Kenny, "and if Selsey turns against him later, he'll leave it to me, and you'll take care of Patton." ”
Kenny stared at Allen's slightly flickering pupils and nodded slightly.
The wind stopped, the snow fell vertically to the ground, and the ambushers kept clenching their weapons in their hands.
As time passed, they began to feel restless and uneasy, and the people outside the city gates still did not set foot in the city, as if they had already exposed the whole plan.
Alan was about to stick his head out of the wall again, when suddenly he heard Sercy's voice, the words that sounded concerned about Barton, the same code words he had given to Sercy.
As the voice got closer, Alan hesitated, but still according to the original plan, he threw a look at the knights who were ambushed around him and was ready to act.
The air around them became more and more tense as the target approached, and everyone lowered their breathing to a minimum, and their eyes focused on the blonde boy not far away.
Aiden hid behind a hawker's cart, he took on the command of the operation, the black arrow feather firmly resting on the bowstring, his left eye narrowing slightly, his gaze wandering between the tip of the arrow and the target.
'Whoosh-'
A sharp arrow was fired, tearing through the calm before the storm.
With a miserable howl, Barton's red-haired soldier fell from his horse, his skull pierced by arrows, and he was instantly deprived of the right to breathe by death.
Barton jerked back the reins from Sercy's hand, and he was about to move his horse's head, only to find that the gate behind him had closed quickly. Darkness swallowed up light in an instant, and the guards at the gates were already fighting with the guards at the end of the line.
For a while, the sound of killing in the corridor of the city gate was everywhere, and the horses roared.
"Damn it!" Barton roared hoarsely, "Get on your horse, get on my horse, and get out with me!!"
Hundreds of cavalry rushed into the corridor, and Patton drew his sharp sword at his waist, and the wind swept past him, and the cavalry rushed behind him, fighting with the weary guards.
Another black arrow struck, hitting the eye of the war horse under Patton's crotch, the horse neighed, raised its front hooves high, Patton fell off the horse unexpectedly, and he got up from the ground with his hands and feet, looking extremely embarrassed.
Just as he was about to shout to Sersi, he suddenly stabbed a sharp spear in his face, the cold tip of the spear almost reached his forehead, he suddenly dodged sideways, the blade cut through his face, a trace of blood dripped on the silver armor, he staggered back two steps, and clenched the saber in his hand.
The surroundings grew more and more chaotic, the clash of irons and the wails of tears tightly intertwined.
Barton had just dodged the slash of a long sword, when he was suddenly knocked out by a powerful force in his back, and he stumbled and then lowered his head again to dodge the attacking spear, and suddenly felt a burning pain in his back.
The sneak attack just now pierced his silver armor, and he didn't hesitate for a moment, and directly slashed at the head of a knight with his sword. The knight spun to dodge, then crashed to the ground, and one of the guards quickly leaned in on him.
"Lord, ..... quickly"
Before he could finish speaking, the head of the Guards flew out, blood gushing out of his broken neck, and his body fell to the ground with a thud.
Barton's eyes widened as he looked at the fallen guards, slashing at the attacker with both swords in hand, the knight quickly backing away, the sharp saber slashing a red light on his iron armor.
Then the man fell.
The slashing sound around him gradually became quieter, Barton's tired face was splashed with blood, he cut through the crimson haze, and once again stabbed a rebel with a sword in both hands, suddenly an iron-armored elbow hit his right cheek from the side, and the huge force pulled out the saber that he had stabbed into the rebel's body, he took a few steps back to the side, and just as he was about to pick up the saber, a black and blue thing hit him in the face head-on, he felt the bridge of his nose break in an instant, and his brain buzzed.
Then, another tremendous force kicked him in the abdomen, followed by another kick, and he was kicked to the ground, even through the silver armor, the gastric juice was already turning over the river, he curled up, and let out a cry of pain, blood flowed out of his mouth.
There was a complete silence around him, and Barton could only hear his own breathing, and he tried to get up with his mouth slightly open, but he felt a pair of cold boots.
When he looked up, he saw a resolute face with a beard looking down at him, and the man held a black and blue sword in his hand, which he felt somewhat familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.
There were people standing all around, and the cold spear tips were aimed at him, and he turned his head in pain, looking behind him, and the only remaining guards were all lying in a pool of blood, and there was no movement.
Kenny tucks the Ugon sword into its scabbard and looks at the embarrassed Barton. "Long time no see. He said with a fake greeting.
Barton struggled to recall in his mind the beard and the black-blue sword, even the sound so familiar. He suddenly remembered that he had met two bounty hunters, and the attacker in front of him was one of them.
The two knights stepped forward to lift Barton off the ground, and Kenny twisted his neck and looked at the embarrassed Barton.
"Remember me? Lord Barton. Kenny asked, smiling.
Barton spat out a mouthful of blood, his Adam's apple squirmed, and the bridge of his nose was broken so he didn't dare to breathe.
He thought back to everything that had just happened, and the sudden attack made him lose the ability to think, he shook his head, let out a sigh of remorse, and then another mouthful of blood spat out.
"It seems like you're not fit to be interrogated right now. Kenny turned to Aiden, "Send him to the cell, send a hundred soldiers to surround the cell, no one is allowed to approach this guy, no one is allowed to let him out, including me." ”
"Yes, lord. Aiden replied.
Hundreds of cavalry pressed Patton to leave the east gate, and Sersi leaned against the city wall, staring closely at Patton's back as he left, with no expression on his face. (To be continued.) )
