Chapter 65 / The Fate of Black Blood
"The guy over there, have you ever seen this person in the portrait? Black hair and black eyes, not very tall, about 1.2 meters. β
The sheriff in black uniform showed Su Zuo a vivid portrait, and the face on the painting did have Su Zuo's charm, but because it was too accurate, it did not bear any resemblance to Su Zuo's appearance now.
"Sorry, haven't seen it. Suzo shook his head, then leaned against the wall, nibbled on the bread in his hand, and continued to stare at the church monks at the gate of the city wall in the distance.
The city lieutenant looked at the young man with a sallow face, brown hair and black eyes in front of him, and shook his head, this 1.4-meter-tall child with long hands and feet could not be the person they were looking for.
After the city lieutenant left, Su Zuo turned his head, looked at the backs of the two city lieutenants, and pondered, he was still wondering why it had been almost a week since he escaped from Wenning District, and he only saw the monks running around like flies all over the city, but he didn't see any movement between the city lieutenant and the security office, and now it seems that he just didn't know what shit luck he had, which made the city lieutenant's side of the action lag a little.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at the monk at the city gate and gritted his teeth a little, if it weren't for this group of fast-moving bastards, he would have escaped from the city early the morning of the second day after the Duke of Silver Rose returned.
Suzo had already figured it out, although under the conditions of another world, it might be a feasible idea to overthrow the aristocratic class by imitating capitalist changes, first developing industry and commerce, and then arming the citizens and co-opting civilian soldiers to launch a rebel army. However, taking advantage of the fact that the Duke of Silver Rose had the main hostile force of the remnants of the Nanling royal family, and had no time to take care of anything else, it was also a good idea to secretly go to remote villages and towns to carry out armed peasant uprisings and take the route of encircling the cities from the countryside.
But no matter how clearly you think about all this, you have to wait until you escape, these bastard priests don't know what kind of chicken blood they have beaten, from dawn (Monday) the city gate is opened, and the city gate is closed at dusk (Thursday), without stopping for a moment, not leaving an inch, Su Zuo circled the west gate and the south gate for almost a week, and did not find the slightest chance to get out of the city.
Fortunately, neither the church monks nor the city lieutenants knew that Su Zuo had an abyssal alchemy body, so Su Zuo, who had changed his body and appearance with the giant technique, was able to hide in peace until now.
Although Su Zuo now has to cast the spell [Life Spark] on his body every day to fill the elemental magic consumed in the prosthesis, under the protection of the Abyss Body, Su Zuo does not need to go to the hotel to stay, even if it is a cold night, as long as he finds a sheltered place to nest, he can barely survive the night, which undoubtedly reduces his chance of being exposed.
"Is it a protracted war...... What a headache......"
Suzo shoved the last piece of bread into his mouth, then clapped his hands and stood up. He realized that he couldn't continue to do nothing like this.
Although he had some change with him when he escaped, he spent part of it to prepare the spell casting materials for the giant magic, and some of the food he had spent on the past few days, and he didn't have much money left at this time. So it may be ridiculous to say, but Suzo really has to get a job, or he can't be burned at the stake, and he starves to death on the streets......
Lamberts changed his clothes, gray robes, ordinary clothes, he looked at the boy in front of him who was shining with magic glow, like a little sun, and he was already eighty percent sure in his heart.
He is 1.4 meters tall, brown-haired, and wears simple and inconspicuous civilian clothing, exactly the same style as reported by the owner of a clothing theft case near a passage in the lower city.
It was probably some unknown heretical spell that changed his stature that kept Lamberts unnoticed for so long.
However, Lamberts felt that it was simply the gods deliberately favoring him, and if the boy had been discovered so easily, it would have been almost impossible for Lamberts to take credit for catching him, but now, according to the slightest clue, and almost nothing of brainpower, he had caught this somewhat clever little fellow, and the credit went almost entirely to Lamberts.
If it had been two days ago, Lamberts would have rushed forward and grabbed the kid, but now he was a little worried.
Lamberts looked up overhead.
In the high altitude visible to the naked eye, more than ten black wyverns are waving their wings, hovering a few hundred meters above the White Rose City, since the return of the Duke of the Silver Rose, for the citizens of the White Rose City, such a scene has been commonplace, but Lamberts has noticed something strange from the sudden increase in the number of wyverns in the past two days.
Coupled with the sudden and swift action of the city lieutenant, if Lamberts can't guess what happened, then he is really stupid......
Suzo crouched down and looked at a stall on the side of the road, as if he was interested in the stall owner's goods, but he was actually observing the figure behind him through the small mirror in his hand.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for Suzo to see Lamberts' familiar face.
"Damn, I'll just say something is wrong, it's been discovered. β
Su Zuo gritted his teeth, compared to the habitual bandits in Wenning District, these pampered monks are simply not worth mentioning, and the tracking skills of the three-legged cat are not as good as the corpse demons, not to mention those natives in Wenning District who are like wolf snow, but only in the way of discovering themselves, Su Zuo is puzzled.
You know, through the Abyss Transformation Giant Technique, he even changed the smell on his body!But how did these magic sticks find out? Su Zuo felt that there was definitely some key information that he didn't know.
Just like the body of the alchemist's abyss, the ability to resist blows like a corpse demon monster, and consider the problems of the other world with the common sense of the earth, even if Su Zuo has corrected all the information he knows, there will still be some unexpected key points from time to time, giving him a fatal blow at a critical moment. As the saying goes, only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one survive a hundred battles, but Su Zuo's problem is-
He has traveled for less than 4 months, and he has only come into contact with the people and things in Wenning District.
So it was really not his fault that he was counterattacked once or twice.
But it was useless to regret it now, Su Zuo stood up, followed the flow of people, and walked towards the front of the street again, racking his brains in his head, thinking about how to get out......
Looking at the actions of the boy in front of him, Lamberts couldn't help but sneer, he knew that his people were discovered, after all, they were not professional thieves, even if they had been disguised, but it was only a matter of time before such a group of people were discovered by the imps from Wenning District.
"But so what? Now you're surrounded by my people, it's just that because of those guys in the sky, we can't do it until it's dark. β
The initiative is in the hands of Lamberts, and Suzo is a fish in the pool, and can only obediently wait for the time of judgment to come.
"Wait!"
Lamberts suddenly reacted, what about those Wyvern Knights watching? His purpose was not to go out of his way to catch Suzo, he just had to kill him.
A knife, a sword, cutting off the head, piercing the heart, it doesn't take a few seconds of effort, the blood spurting out of the small body will accumulate into a pool, and by that time, by the time the Black Rose near the election officer noticed the abnormality below and found the body of this heretic imp, they had already gone away.
Although as a dignified priest of the Holy Capital, he has to act like those dark assassins, which makes Lamberts, who has a habit of cleanliness, feel deeply unhappy, but it doesn't matter, he Lamberts wants to prove to everyone in the Holy Capital that he is no longer the self he used to be.
Gesturing to the people around him, Lamberts pulled the hat off his head, and the group bowed their heads and surrounded the boy......
When Suzo noticed the footsteps behind him, it was already too late, and he didn't expect Lamberts, who had been with him for so long, to suddenly surround him in such a downtown area.
But Suzo suddenly remembered an assassination method shown in the movie in his previous life - a certain nuclear physicist or engineer, in the most prosperous and lively urban area, suddenly surrounded by a group of people, and when the crowd dispersed, the expert who reappeared on camera was already covered in blood and fell on the street.
Looking at the man in front of him with his head bowed, Su Zuo's back trembled-
It's too late to use the arcane: "...... the damn"
Su Zuo's eyes were full of unwillingness, and he slammed into the side of the street.
"Tear up!"
The sound of the fabric being cut open, Su Zuo only felt a dull abdomen, and he knew that the outer layer of the prosthesis covering his body had been cut.
But the crisis did not pass, Suzo pounced on the priest on the right side of his body, but from the corner of his eye, he could see that the companions on both sides of the priest had already drawn out the long sword on his belt!
"I knew that I had made a combat-type prosthesis in the first place!" "I didn't have time to regret it, and I didn't have time to understand that he didn't actually have that much money, Su Zuo reached out and revealed the steel pipe grenade in his hand-
"God forbid!"
"Boom!"
The corpse of the priest was thrown high and flew out, and Su Zuo lifted the dead body on his body and crawled up with a curse: "Bastard!
Ignore the guy who betrayed Marx. At the last moment, Suzo used the priest's corpse as a meat shield to block the fragments of the grenade's explosion. In fact, he was also gambling on his life, and it can only be said that he didn't think about it so much at all, and he had already pulled out the grenade.
However, it was obvious that the priests of this group of mid-level or low-level demon swordsmen were far less powerful than the corpse shattering demons who had stepped into the truth, and they were blown up by Su Zuo's unexpected grenade, and the corpses were lying on the ground, and few survived.
"Ahh
"Damn......" Su Zuo stood up with his legs covered, although he used the strange power of the giant magic to knock down the priest as a meat shield, but the human body was not specially used as a shield after all, and the shrapnel from the steel pipe explosion still had several splashes on Su Zuo's legs, one of which even broke the protection of the prosthesis and injured Su Zuo's real body in the prosthesis.
"Before the city lieutenant comes, leave quickly......" Su Zuo thought as he limped a few steps.
But the hideous cry behind him made Su Zuo stop: "You ...... Damn it...... Black Blood ...... Imp!"
It was the roar of wrath that could only come from a life-reaper crawling back from the depths of hell.
High Monk Lamberts stood up from the pile of corpses, covered in blood, clutching the only remaining eye, the silver-rimmed pendant around his neck shattered into pieces and fell to the ground.
With a bloodied sword in his right hand, Lamberts glared at one eye with a hideous face, and issued a desperate curse to Suzo: "I'm going to kill you!
β...... Is it true that labor and management are born with a surname that is 100% counterattacked!?" Su Zuo didn't want to complain anymore, so he simply detonated a steel pipe and threw it at Lamberts, although Su Zuo was a little delicate in his heart about making an acquaintance like this, but now is not the time to release his sympathy indiscriminately.
"The same move is useless to me!" Lamberts's long sword lit up with a strong light, and he did not retreat but advanced, and before the steel pipe exploded, a sword split the pipe body, bursting out a fiery red flame, but it could hardly do any damage to Lamberts, who was covered with a strong light system [Elemental Guardian].
"The light element itself has high temperature and high energy, compared to the temperature of the Fireball Technique, is it just an itch in the boots......"
Su Zuo unleashed the Wind Wing Technique, and under the impetus of the wind current that exploded in his chest, Su Zuo quickly retreated backwards like a cannonball.
In the face of Suzo's actions, Lamberts gritted his teeth and offered a prayer to the gods: "Holy Silver Heart, Sword Silver Heart, Brilliant Parade Light, Holy Sword Technique!"
A glimmer of light flashed on the sword in Lamberts' hand, and he pointed the tip of his sword at Suzoβ
It was enough light to split the heavens and the earth, and the brilliant high-energy light even tore through the air, and the plasmaized hot air turned into a shock wave, and along the trajectory of the light, it turned into a roaring lightsaber!
Su Zuo was just at the last moment, and he controlled the wind wing technique and dodged the direct attack of the holy sword technique, but he was swept into the shock wave, and with the countless brick and tile fragments that were lifted by the shock wave, he fell heavily to the ground in the whirlwind of the sky!
"Hmm!" Suzo slammed into the ground, spitting blood, his ears buzzing, and the blinding white light still lingering on the retina, looking like everything was split in half by white lines.
Su Zuo couldn't help but cough, he wiped his face, it was all blood.
"Damn...... I can't die yet...... dizzy, the backlash of the spell made his brain chaotic, he couldn't think of anything, only a simple will, forcing him to stubbornly lie up.
Obviously nothing started...... How can you die here......
After releasing a blow of the Holy Sword Technique with all his strength, Lamberts's consumption was also very large, he took a few breaths with his sword, and then he looked at Su Zuo with a bloody face, and showed a hideous smile: "I'm going to chop you into flesh foam......"
Su Zuo knelt on the ground, his hands propped up his upper body, his legs were sore, and he wanted to stand up, but it was impossible.
"Bastard ......" Suzo gasped, and this time, it was him who was affected by the huge sound wave.
Su Zuo reluctantly pulled out the dagger behind him, just like the Corpse Crusher did that time, and in such a seriously injured state, it was almost impossible for him to even cast a spell.
But he didn't want to sit stillβ
Even if he can only make a symbolic struggle, he has to fight until the last moment.
At this moment, a huge dragon wing whistling sound came from above the battlefield.
"You two, stop fighting!"
Hearing this voice, Lamberts' face changed, and he pounced on Su Zuo regardless of it, and the long sword in his hand stabbed Su Zuo fiercely at Su Zuo, who couldn't move the slightest!
"Church lackeys! I told you to stop!"
With the shouting and scolding, several black figures fell from the sky and fell heavily to the ground.
The black knight who stood in front of Suzo with just a sword had already knocked Lamberts into the air.
"Bastard, do you know who I am?!Do you know who my father is?!" Seeing that it was impossible to kill Suzo, Lamberts howled at the Black Knight like a wounded vicious dog, "How dare you stop in front of me, I tell you! As long as my father hooks his hands, you and that little imp like ants ...... it"
"What's wrong with even Feldenand?"
A huge roar like thunder fell from the sky, but it was just the voice of one man.
Hearing this, Lamberts's face turned from red to blue, and then to white, with only a few subtle syllables, which he squeezed out of his throat.
"Silver... Rose... Duke ......"
The black wyvern that flew at high speed over the street was a full circle larger than the mounts of the other knights, and from the wyvern leaped down was a tall man in civilian clothes, dressed in pitch-black ink, and landed lightly to the ground.
He didn't look at Lamberts, but stood in front of Suzo with his back to Lamberts.
"Your name is 'Evan'?" was a burly, majestic, domineering man, with an unmistakably commanding tone as he was accustomed to being in a high position.
Su Zuo nodded a little blankly, looking at the angular and heroic face in front of him, like a knife carving, but he couldn't help but feel a little strange in his heart.
Obviously he is the Duke of the Empire, but the man in front of him has black hair and black eyes like the most pure-blooded Nanling people, is it because of this reason that this family will be chosen as the guardian of Nanling?
Seeing Su Zuo nod, the man in front of him, Duke Ferdinand of the Silver Rose, nodded, he stretched out his large hand full of sword calluses, gently wiped it on Su Zuo's face, and then with a force, tore open the prosthetic skin on Su Zuo's face.
"Good!" Landing on one knee, Feldnan crouched down, "Shirley once told me about you......"
"Duke Silver Rose!" Seeing that the boiled duck was about to fly, Lamberts could not be silent any longer, this was no longer as simple as the original desire to obtain merit-
"Because of this imp, eight priests have returned to the glory of the gods!Feldenand!Even you can't stop me from killing this imp, do you know that my father is ......!"
Federnand raised his right hand: "Tell him to shut up." β
The black knight standing beside him hammered his right hand to his heart: "The will of my lord is my glory." β
In the next second, Lamberts closed his mouth, obscured by Feldnan's figure, and Suzo could only hear Lamberts's screams with the beating of ** - and then, soon even the screams were gone.
Silver Rose Ian Duke Feldnan leaned over and picked up Suzo on the ground:
"Evan Ian, my beloved son, my pride, I know that you are not dead, and after three long years, you are finally back with me again. β
A small snowflake fell from the sky and landed on the tip of Su Zuo's nose, and the slightest coolness made his head, which was stiff from surprise, recover a little.
In the last moment when the dragon left the ground, he looked down at the miserable figure of Lamberts lying face down on the ground, looking so small.
The black knight with the black sword noticed Suzo's gaze, and he withdrew his left foot that had stepped on Lamberts, solemnly hammered his right hand to his chest, and gave him a knightly salute......
ps: Oh, I said it!This is really a proud sky!;
