Chapter 75 Brasov
Brasov, a county in central Romania, is located on the northern slopes of the Southern Carpathian Mountains and in the southeastern part of the Transylvanian Plateau.
Rope Street in the old city of Brasov, one of the narrowest streets in Europe, 132 cm wide, one person walking is still rich, two people meet head-on, must give way sideways, in order not to rub against each other, the street is 830 cm long, because of some slight curves, this end can not see the other end.
At this moment, a child dressed as a newsboy walked quickly down the silent street, looking anxious, as if something terrible had happened.
Because Romania was a belligerent in World War II, Brasov, in central Romania, was also an important transportation hub.
Romania, which was originally in the hands of the European Hydra, was also out of Hydra's control with Schmidt's death.
After the Normandy landings, the Germans were shrinking on all fronts, and there was no room left to take care of all of Europe, and Brasov was now naturally in the hands of the Allies.
Romania is an important oil producer in Europe, and the Allied forces are stationed here to implement strict control measures.
At night, the streets of Brasov were deserted, and the Romanian youths of the German allies had already taken to the battlefield.
Now there were only a few old and weak women and children left in the city, and after the Allies accepted them, these people could go out except when they were recruited by the army to build fortifications at zero hour.
Most of the time, they hide in their homes, and the whole city is devastated by the shelling.
The child ran quickly in the streets, looking back as he ran, for fear of being spotted by Allied patrols.
After running for a while, I came to the gate of a quaint villa on Reeperbah and gently knocked on the iron ring on the door.
Vigilantly observing the streets and alleys, there was a soft sound and a crack opened the door.
Inside, a man in black armor poked his head out, and the child whispered something in the man's ear.
Then the black-armored man's face also changed, and he didn't say anything superfluous, and quickly took out some money from his pocket and stuffed it into the child.
He hurriedly closed the door and ran inside, because it was too old, and when he closed the door, he shook off many stone chips from the door frame.
The man in black armor quickly ran through the hall and upstairs.
The wooden staircase also rattled loudly, and after a while, it came to the outside of a room on the second floor.
At this point, the man in black armor slowed down and knocked lightly on the door.
"Come in." He heard a voice coming from the room, and only then did he dare to push open the door and walk in.
When he came to Xu Wenwu, he knelt down and said, "I just received news from the United States...."
He hesitated whether to say the shocking news, and he actually regretted why he was on duty today.
When he heard the news, he knew that reporting was a chore.
He knew the temper of the helper, and he took his anger out on himself. Then there is a sin.
"Huh? Why don't you say it. ”
When the black-armored man heard Xu Wenwu's questioning voice, he sweated like rain, and finally said with a heart, "Our stronghold in New York has all been ended, and the five teams sent over are all dead." ”
With that, he lowered his head almost above the floor, ready to withstand the coming storm.
Xu Wenwu heard the news for a while, his face couldn't see joy and anger, and the jade wrench in his hand was pinched in half by him with a click.
There was a cold light in his gloomy eyes, and after half a salary, he slowly spoke, "When did it happen, who did it?" ”
The black-armored man's whole body trembled, and he replied quickly. "Just. . . Just last night... It is said that it was armed by the Sanctuary."
"Bang." The 16th-century wooden table in front of Xu Wenwu cracked in response, and the lamps and utensils on the table were scattered all over the ground.
The black-armored man next to him was silent, and he didn't dare to make any sound even if he was soaked with sweat.
Xu Wenwu stood up and paced around the room, thinking back to the young man he had fought against in the European Alps.
Terrifying strength, weird robes, and weird abilities that make people fall into illusions.
Including the good things that have repeatedly spoiled him, Hydra is also a sanctuary, and this time in New York, USA, is also a sanctuary.
In the millennia of days, he had never hated a person so much, and once again he had never heard of the Sanctuary before.
It's as if it's jumping out of a crack in the stone.,It's like you're fighting against yourself.。
The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and Xu Wenwu's face lost the expression that had been maintained for hundreds of years.
At this time, his face was cold, and the anger in his body seemed to be about to burst out.
If it was someone else, he would set off to the other party's hometown and serve them directly.
After fighting in the Alps, Xu Wenwu didn't dare to say such a big thing about coming to the door.
When he fought against George at the beginning, although he didn't work hard, as a strong man, he could also keenly feel that the other party also had the means.
That's why he withdrew decisively, and if he continued to fight, he could feel that he could force George's hole cards.
But I probably won't be able to get out of the Alps.
I didn't expect that after missing it last time, I was already hiding from the people of the Holy Domain.
is still being targeted by the other party, this feeling of powerlessness in the face of the opponent's provocation.
Xu Wenwu felt very annoyed, he had not felt this way for many years.
So when Alps returned, he went all out to find the legendary thing.
In order to improve his strength, George's appearance gave him a huge sense of crisis.
Unlike the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, this time he is determined to obtain the Book of Darkness.
During his days in hiding in Europe, he searched for those legendary creatures.
The most famous in Europe is the vampire, and coincidentally his men return the favor.
In Allied prisoner-of-war camps in Romania, hundreds of people died of sudden anaemia.
This information made Xu Wenwu aware of the imperativeness in it.
Anemia is a symptom that is difficult to cause mass death, coupled with his own knowledge of the extraordinary power of the world.
Let him immediately set off for Brasov, Romania, the home of Dracula, the first vampire legend.
Soon he found Dracula, who was hidden in the castle on the mountain, and after a cordial fight.
He got everything he wanted, and the two worked together to find the fabled Book of Darkness.
Xu Wenwu knew from Dracula's mouth that this book could communicate with the legendary gods and demons and borrow power from them.
This made his heart flutter, and the way to increase his strength in a short period of time was exactly what he couldn't ask for.
It's just that he didn't expect that not long after his people were sent to New York, they were discovered by the people of the Holy Domain.
The ten rings on Xu Wenwu's arm also emitted a flickering blue light, as if he felt the anger of his master.
He slowly turned his head and said to the black-armored man, "Arrange people, enter the mountain tomorrow"
"It's... My lord.."
