Chapter 33: Escape
Passing through the woods and over the artificial lake, Zilingers shook off his pursuers in the favor of the wind.
He looked around, intending to disguise himself as an escape by diving down the canal into the Tasok River, before turning and running into Hillston, the economic center of Beckland.
At this moment, a flower suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, and he saw that the various colors in the darkness had become extremely intense.
Zilingers found himself paused, floating in mid-air, with the rising dark water beneath his feet, and beneath the surface of the water, pale palms grasping outward.
In front of his eyes, a huge humanoid skeleton appeared, this monster was four meters tall, and the eye sockets were burning with pitch-black flames, and the white bones were illusory and hazy.
Zilingers stared at his enemy without emotion, a sneer on his lips. At the same time, the glove on his left hand shone brightly, becoming as if it was made of pure gold.
A pure, fiery light suddenly descended from the sky, enveloping the huge skeleton, and the entire painting-like world vibrated violently, and the pale palms beneath the dark water evaporated one after another.
Immediately afterward, he saw a huge skeleton appear on his left hand, nearly four meters tall, with black flames burning from its eye sockets, exactly like the monster just now. One after another, the same skeletal monsters sprung up one after another, one, two, three...... That's more than a hundred!
The hundreds of pairs of eyes burning with pitch-black flames simultaneously turned their gaze on their target.
Below, the dark water grew higher and higher, about to touch the soles of his feet. Pale, illusory palms grew out again, waving upwards like a drowning man trying to grasp at a life-saving straw.
"Hurry up!" Hazel looked at the man with the ancient samurai's bun from afar, and hurriedly poked his left hand forward!
Half of Zilingers's body suddenly seemed to be splashed with sulfuric acid, and pieces of rotting flesh fell with yellow-green pus.
"Hazel" dropped half of her body in her hand expressionlessly, and she suddenly felt like something in her stomach was stirring violently, and she couldn't stand still and fell to the ground in pain.
……
"Didn't stop it......" Elle was stunned for a moment, she lowered her head, her pale palm clenched hard, and then let go, although in the end she still couldn't outpace Mr. Azik's movements, but at best, at least her current plan had been largely successful.
Next, all you need to do is take advantage of the mixed crowd in the East End to hide, and when the time comes, you will immediately go to sea to escape from Beckland.
Although she didn't get what she wanted from Zilingus, the death of Lieutenant General Hurricane could also make her plans better at sea, and a pirate general's legacy was undoubtedly absolutely rich, and she planned to receive more resources before the Witch Sect.
She quickly left the area with the help of the incarnation ability of the "Apostle of Desire", and once she reached that crowded place in the Eastern Side, it would be difficult to find her in a short period of time, even if Ulorius arrived in person.
Maybe with the help of Hazel and Sharon's channels, she will quickly reach the middle sequence, after coming into contact with the mysterious "river", Elle has a sense of intimacy between herself and it, and she has a hunch that there will be a great qualitative change in herself after being promoted to the middle sequence.
Oh, and by the way, let's not forget the Rose School guys, who are just poor pawns pushed to the front of the stage, but for Elle, he is the source of all the disaster.
Ho~ The appearance of this monster now is all thanks to you.
Elle suddenly covered one eye with one hand, her nails digging deep into her skin until the red blood stains appeared, and she laughed wildly on her back, completely oblivious to all the strange stares around her.
……
"Extra! Extra! 'Lieutenant General Hurricane' Zielingers was killed in Beckland! ”
"Extra! Extra! 'Lieutenant General Hurricane' Zielingers was killed in Beckland! ”
Klein had not slept well all night last night, he had not received a report from the "hanged man" and "justice", nor had he received a reply from Mr. Azki, and he always remembered the outcome of the incident with "Lieutenant General Hurricane" Zielingers.
He reached out to cover his mouth, and had just boarded the trackless public carriage bound for Zotland Street when he suddenly heard the voice of a newsboy outside the window.
Stunned for a moment, Klein quickly took out a penny coin and handed it out the window, and the headline of the Tingen Morning Post caught his eye the moment it unfolded.
The Great Pirate Zilingers was shot dead by the Duke's bodyguards in Beckland
The news about this incident is not long, and it is very different from the long entertainment lace in his impression, which only explains the time, place, people and results, and the so-called shorter the content, the bigger the matter.
It seemed that this matter was over, and Klein suddenly heard people around him talking about the pirate general's bounty, which was 10,000 gold pounds!
Pity...... Somewhat disoriented, he folded the newspaper and looked out the carriage window.
……
Beckland, Jowood District.
Furth wearing a gauze hat. Wall and Hugh. Dilcha walked down the street to the nearest branch of the Bank of Bavaat.
"Money is always gone before you know it." Furth sighed.
Hugh nodded sympathetically: "yes." ”
"Fortunately, the book "Stormstorm Villa" is more popular, and there is still a salary coming into my account, otherwise, I would have to find a clinic or hospital and become a doctor again." Furth sighed contentedly and worriedly.
Hugh was silent for a few seconds, and asked cautiously, "Will this investigation of Ziringers affect your authorship?" After all, we may be targeted by the substitutes, the night watchers, and ......"
"No, it's only you who will be targeted." Furth chuckled and said, "You are the one who is looking for someone to go to the police station to call the police, you are the one who sent the letter, and you are also the one who is well-known in the gangster circles and some streets of the East End. Wall, has always been a popular best-selling author lately. ”
"......," Hugh said after a moment's pause, "So, you're with me all this time?" ”
"Or else?" Furth brushed his hair and chuckled, "Don't you think it's a fun experience?" Well...... This experience gave me a lot of inspiration to write, and my next novel is to write about a sudden murder case. ”
Hugh suddenly didn't know what language to use to deal with, so he could only walk forward, accidentally forgetting to turn a corner, and was pulled back by Furth.
Just then, they heard the newsboy's shout:
"Extra! Extra! 'Lieutenant General Hurricane' Zielingers was killed in Beckland! ”
"Wow, oh, oh, what a surprise, a Sequence 6 pirate general died so easily in Beckland." A strange girl in a half-height silk top hat, a tight black tuxedo, and a white shirt suddenly appeared behind them, and the two hurriedly turned their heads, her eyes wrapped in a dark black silk ribbon, and a plain-looking wooden cane in her hand, perhaps as a tool for her to find her way.
The pale girl spat out her tongue stretched out at them, but it was a pity that her eyes were covered with silk, otherwise the grimace might have worked better.
"Miss Elle?" The salted fish author's eyes were no longer as lazy as usual, and she pulled Hugh behind her and looked at the unknown girl vigilantly.
"Wow, dear Furth called me by my name, I thought you would call me Miss Arista distantly." She said with a free hand in the pocket of her black trousers, gently kicking the little high-heeled black leather boot.
"What's the matter with you?" Hugh, who was short in stature and had a youthful but majestic face, stepped out from behind Firth and looked directly at the pretended strange girl.
"Ahhh She winked at the blonde Miss "Judgment", pursed her little mouth, and said in a soft tone:
"Don't refuse, or I'll be very sad." She raised a hand and deliberately showed the two of them the ring in the style of the Aurora Society.
"Okay." Furth uncharacteristically agreed, ignoring the wicked smile on the silver-haired girl's lips.
Shh If it weren't for the old lady's interest, who would want to live with you, a steam believer, not to mention that the peer is an enemy, I didn't do it directly, you should be stealing fun.
She pretended to be obedient and jumped in front of Furth to hold her arm, and Hugh on the side saw that she was almost all attached to Furth's body, and the corners of her eyes couldn't help but jump sharply a few times.
"Hehe, don't be so indifferent, maybe I'm in a good mood today, and I'll tell you what you want to know directly." Forth and Hugh looked at the silver-haired girl, who had a very different personality from when they first met, and looked at each other, deciding to put the matter of contacting Miss Audrey aside for now.
