Chapter 10: Escape?
As night slowly falls, snowflakes fall, and although Alberta is a port city, it is unable to resist the invasion of winter, and there are only a few people huddled behind the stalls, wrapped in thick blankets, waiting for possible customers.
However, in a small courtyard, there is a group of people who "bravely" challenge the cold. There were nine people, eight men and one woman, and their clothes could only block important parts, exposing their skin to the sky and the earth, carrying the falling snowflakes.
Several people's lips were purple from the cold, and their bodies spontaneously used tremors to raise their body temperatures, but under the relentless snow, it was all in vain.
The eyes of the nine people were different, some were resentful, some were pleading, some were pitiful, and some were lethargic. These nine people are the eight people who shot at the star mark before and the owner of the small building, the beautiful woman.
Starmark was wrapped in a thick cotton coat and had a small kettle in his hand, the water in which a thin layer of ice had formed.
"Friends, I know you may feel a little cold, but please hold on, there is one last question, please let me know. Starmark cleared his throat and said as he walked over to the bully who had brought him here with the kettle.
"Where was the fruit of the Heaven and Earth Tree placed? Starmark looked at the bully.
The pleading in the bully's eyes immediately turned into grievance, and he shook his head aggrievedly and threw out tears.
At this time, the bully had already succumbed, he had not experienced this kind of torture, and he was not as tough as Gna, so he recruited everything that Starmark asked, whether it was his own identity or the rest of the people, including his own master, and the identity of the woman was also said to Starmark. It's just that the question raised by Starmark really doesn't know with his identity.
Starmark sighed, the spout of the kettle tilted slightly downward, and a stream of water fell, wetting the bully's hair once more. The body was already extremely cold, and it was so excited by the ice water that the bully couldn't bear it anymore and fell unconscious.
His two younger brothers were frightened when they saw this, and shouted desperately: "We really don't know, with our identity, it is impossible to know, you ask Miss Vicky, or ask Gna, they must know." ”
Hearing this, Starmark said with a guilty expression: "I know, I got used to it just now, I'm sorry." With that, he came to Vicky with the jug.
Vicky is the owner of the three bullies, the charismatic woman. At this time, Vicky looked up at the star mark in front of her, the tears in the corners of her eyes had condensed into ice crystals, with her beautiful face, coupled with the fact that she was only wearing a three-point style, she was definitely a stunner that could arouse a man's desire. Of course, in the face of the cold, the lust will also be cleansed, not to mention that it is someone else's, not your own. No matter how hot the body is, it can only tremble. Vicky's pitiful appearance is something few men can resist, and of course, Starmark clearly belongs to another type of people. In his eyes, treasures and gold coins are the most beautiful things, and as for the woman's grace, the woman will only take away his treasures and gold coins.
There is another point, although Starmark did not say it, he knew it very well in his heart. Vicky looks like a weak woman, but she has a deep foundation, otherwise ordinary women would not be able to bear it in this kind of cold. And she was just shaking, and even the expression she showed was hardly true.
"Miss Vicky, it's so cold. Starmark rubbed his hands together and craned his neck.
"I'm so cold, let me go, please. Vicky pleaded, her voice full of fear, like a frightened little girl.
However, Starmark turned a deaf ear to Vicky's pleas, and even the speed at which the spout tilted could not be slowed down in the slightest. The rest of the people saw this sight and at the same time gave Starmark a comment: "Demon!" Even a person like Gna, who has been on the verge of life and death many times, thinks that he can't do anything about Vicky at this time.
Watching the spout slowly write, the ice water in the pot was about to rush out of the restraint at any moment, and the horror in Vicky's eyes became even stronger, like a little sheep trembling in the face of a hungry wolf. However, all this did not stop the starmark, a very thin stream of water dripping from the spout of the pot, although it was only soft water, but when it fell on Vicky, it made her hair count down, and it seemed that the dripping was not water, but ice needles.
"I only know that the fruit of the Heaven and Earth Tree is in the manor of the Josente family, and as for where it is hidden, I, a foreigner, have no right to know. Vicky finally couldn't take it anymore and shouted out everything she knew.
This is a betrayal, if it is placed on others, it will definitely be spurned by the world, but Vicky's identity as a weak woman at this time has made several other people admire, under the hands of a demon like Starmark, it is enough to be called a heroine if she can hold on to this time.
When Vicky shouted, Starmark also stopped his "torture", and Vicky's words were similar to what he expected, if the other party really clearly said the specific location, then he needed to pay attention.
Starmark casually draped a blanket over Vicky's body, which was undoubtedly a relief for Vicky, and glanced at Starmark gratefully, only to find that Starmark didn't even look at herself. Starmark threw the blanket to Vicky not because he was merciful, but because he felt that Vicky was satisfied with her answer, and that he felt that he should be considered a "gentleman".
"Deputy Captain Gna, let's talk about the security of the Josant family, as a police officer, I need to evaluate the security of this big family, please cooperate with my work, thank you." ”
Starmark took out his police ID card and said to Gna with a glance. Of course, his actions will only attract the disdain of others.
However, at this moment, Gna, who was originally tied up like a dumpling, suddenly broke the rope on his body and took out a scroll out of nowhere. With a "snort", the scroll was torn open by Gna, and a huge fireball with a diameter of one meter exploded towards the star mark. At the same time, Gna did not hesitate to turn around and leave, he knew that even if he consumed a precious magic scroll, it would be difficult to stop the star mark, he wanted to use this time to escape, as long as he escaped from this small courtyard, then he would be safe
Situated directly north of the city of Albeta, the Josente family's estate covers an area of 1,000 acres, and along with the merchants' guild and the docks, it is one of the three most prominent buildings in Alberta.
"Open the door!"
Outside the manor, a big man banged on the door in a panic.
Soon, several people came running when they heard the sound, and when they saw the comer, they said in surprise: "Gna, what's wrong?"
"I have important things to report to the head of the house. ”
The guards in charge of guarding the gate were also puzzled when they saw Gna's panicked appearance. As the vice-captain of the Josenna family's guard, here in Alberta, it can be said that he walked sideways, and it is hard to imagine what made him panic.
"Gna, what's going on?" At this time, a blonde man walked out, the man looked to be in his twenties, but there were vicissitudes in his eyes that were different from those of his peers, he was the captain of the guard of the Josente family, and he was also the direct boss of Gna, and at the same time he was the third young master of the Josente family. Joscent Darren.
Darren is a knight of level seventy-seven, with his current age, this kind of achievement is enough to be called amazing, and he will definitely be able to become an existence above level ninety in the future, and he is even expected to impact the realm of transcending mortals, which is the glory of the Josente family. Darren, who had amazing talent, went out to wander at the age of fifteen, and after he came back, the whole person was silent a lot, and he also put away the dazzling identity of the third young master of the Joscent family, and did the escort work that should have been done by his subordinates. The people of the Joscent family once asked Gna, who was brought back by Darren, but Gna didn't say anything, and in the end, he could only let Darren go. Of course, although he was only the captain of the escort team, Darren's status in the Joscent family had not diminished in the slightest.
When Gerner saw Darren, he immediately said urgently, "Captain, there's trouble." ”
"What's the trouble?" Darren frowned, he rarely saw Gna so flustered.
"Heaven and Earth, Heaven and Earth Tree Fruit. Gna said hurriedly, stammering a little.
"What happened to the Heaven and Earth Tree Fruit?" Darren's eyes were cold, and a wave of evil qi hit Gna, making his body tremble, but the original panic was dispelled a lot and calmed down.
"The Heaven and Earth Tree Fruit is in danger, and there is a master who came from nowhere and grabbed the second wife and forced her to tell her where to place the Heaven and Earth Tree Fruit, and he is afraid that he has gone now. ”
"What!?" Darren's eyes froze, and he said angrily, "How is my sister-in-law? Why did you escape alone? ”
Hearing Darren's series of questions, Gna became even more anxious: "The second wife is fine, she is just imprisoned, the most important thing now is to go and see if the fruit of the Heaven and Earth Tree is still safe!"
"It's him, let's go!" After hearing Xing's name, Darren's face also changed, and he immediately led everyone straight to the Josent's mansion. On the way, Gna told him that he had received an order from his second wife, Vicky, to clean up an eyeless guy, and finally was restrained by the other party. After hearing this, Darren also believes that the possibility of this person being a star is extremely high, because they have already received a summons from Old Jack that the big thief star is likely to come to Alberta in the near future. As for whether to use the falling star in his hand to exchange the fruit of the Heaven and Earth Tree with them, or to steal it, it is not in the hands of Old Jack.
"Don't worry, there are two masters guarding you, even if that mysterious star comes, it will be difficult to start. He honestly exchanged with us, the Joscent family will not bully, but if he wants to provoke the Joscent family, then he will stay with the falling star. After listening to this, Darren said in a cold voice, not looking very worried about the safety of the Heaven and Earth Tree Fruit.
