Volume 2: The Game of Zero Chapter 31: Rose Duel (5)
Just as they were about to step into the passage, a voice sounded behind them.
"Wait."
Retracting his footsteps in mid-air, Zhu Yaotang slowly turned around and looked at the several people pouring out of a passage with a sneer. They didn't go deep quickly, and because the player with the strange ability was delayed for a long time, it shouldn't be empty here, or there is no trace of it.
It's too clean, but it looks weird.
Seven people walked out of the passage, two of them were half-kneeling and holding crossbows, and two of them were staring at the other passages with full attention, and the remaining two guards looked like protecting the plump woman at the head, and the close-fitting armor attached to the whole body could not completely cover her proud figure.
The woman looked at the two of them with contempt, playing with taste: "You guys, are you going to go in like this?" ”
Zhu Yaotang grinned: "Otherwise." ”
The woman raised one hand and sneered: "Then you better die." ”
After speaking, her hand fell, and the two crossbowmen behind her pulled the trigger, and the crossbow machine "grabbed" and shot at the two opposite.
A single piece of white mang was startled, and the two crossbow arrows were knocked to the ground by a long sword, Zhu Yaotang did not move at all, and Ning He slowly put away the sword.
"Huh-"
The surprise in the woman's eyes flashed, and then she shook her head and said to the guards beside her, "Deal with them." ”
"Yes!"
The two guards and the two crossbow swordsmen behind them, the four of them rushed straight towards Ning He and the two, Ning He and Zhu Yaotang burst out almost at the same time, and at this critical moment, the two people who were in charge of paying attention to the surroundings suddenly shouted, and the six of them froze.
The four people who attacked were very tacit, the two of them continued to look at Ning He and Zhu Yaotang, and the other two turned around and looked at their shouting companions.
The shouting companion was lying on the ground, his face as dead as ashes, and he had died of poison. Another companion in charge of guarding had retreated to the woman's side, using his body as a meat shield for her.
Ning He and Zhu Yaotang glanced at each other, and Zhu Yaotang shook his head slightly, signaling him not to act rashly.
He nodded, and followed the sight of several people to look at another passage, and at some point, there was already a player standing at the entrance of this passage, and when he saw this player's face clearly, Ning He's pupils shrank slightly.
The one who wanted to urinate on their heads.
Zhu Yaotang grinned, his gaze happened to meet the player, and he didn't forget to shake his hand to greet him: "Hey! Meet again. ”
Guan Yiwen looked at these two people with an unkind expression, it was these two guys who wanted to sneak attack him before, this kind of player with extremely poor quality is really damned.
Behind him is actually hiding Nakamasa Yu and his elite squad of the Renwu Mercenary Group, but he didn't show up, and one of his hands behind his back always kept his fist clenched, which was telling Nakamasa Yu not to be exposed. In this cannibalistic forest, if you can hide a little more strength, you will have more life.
The man who was on guard before looked at him resentfully, Guan Yiwen looked displeased, and pointed to the shadow of another passage with the other hand and said, "Don't look at me, it's the poisoned arrow shot over there, I just happened to appear." ”
So, everyone's eyes looked at the other passage in unison, and as expected, an armed team came out of the shadow of the passage, led by a middle-aged man wearing a pure white trench coat, the man's hair was very shiny, and the whole person exuded an aristocratic temperament.
After he stepped out of the shadows, his gaze stopped at the proud woman who was being guarded opposite, bowed slightly, and saluted elegantly: "Long time no see, Marquis of Weiner's daughter, Miss Celine." ”
Celine Weiner, the only daughter of the Marquis of Weiner among the seven marquis of the kingdom, has a noble status, and Debbie Hobbes, the daughter of Duke Hobbes, is the same female heir, and the only heir to the title.
Celine looked at the middle-aged man with a complicated expression, she hesitated for a moment, and finally slowly replied, "Uncle Anli, long time no see." ”
Five of her guards bent down and saluted the middle-aged man.
Anri Linton, one of the seven marquis of the kingdom, is the one in front of him, and behind him are his carefully cultivated private soldiers, a full twenty people.
"Smack! Syllable! Syllable! It's good, it's unexpected, it's unexpected! Unexpectedly, the Marquis of Linton actually came in. ”
In the other passage, another man walked out, a burly man with a mustache and a gray scepter made of cast iron in his hand.
"Marquis Rooney." An Li looked at this person with some surprise.
Celine smiled helplessly, and also saluted the strong man: "Uncle Rooney, I didn't expect you to come too." ”
Giorgio Rooney, also a marquis.
Giorgio smiled heartily: "Don't be nervous, I should be the last one to arrive, although we have six passages here, but one of the little guys should be gone." You say yes, head of Zhongzheng Yu? He said very sadly: "Pity my nephew, but the genius of the sky has fallen in this rose forest, it's a pity." ”
“......”
The square was silent, everyone look at me, I look at you, the four Celine guards who had been forced to position earlier had retreated to her side, and the five teams were each on one side.
Guan Yiwen's hand quietly let go, and the first to come out of the passage behind him was not the leader of the Renwu mercenary group, Nakamasa Yu, but a thin and pale young man, who stumbled out of the passage and rushed to the center of the square. He looked nervously at the people around him, he stayed on Celine and Anli, but when he finally swept over Giorgio Rooney, who had spoken earlier, his expression was happy. It was as if a drowning man had found a life-saving straw and hastily shouted, "Uncle Georgio! ”
Then he ran over.
Georgio's expression was slightly moved, and he muttered, "Ocott? Aren't you supposed to die? ”
Marquis Stark's son, Ocourt Stark, ran up to Georgio's face, his face reddening, "He... They said they wouldn't kill me, they would... You want to trade me......"
"Oh?!" George nodded and said calmly: "Then you really shouldn't run over directly......"
Okote was stunned and said, "Huh? Uncle ......"
Before he could finish his sentence, the gray scepter had been rounded by Georgio, and a blow had struck the nephew on the head.
This scene is like a watermelon crumbling.
Celine, Guan Yiwen and Ning He turned their heads sideways almost at the same time, while An Li Zhongzhengyu calmly watched all this happen, and Zhu Yaotang wandered between the two groups of people, squinting his eyes slightly, but he still watched.
"My good nephew, how are you going to explain it to Old Lord Stark after you let your uncle out? The pain of his old man's loss of his son in old age will not just follow you? ”
Georgio looked at the rotten corpse on the ground, took the wet handkerchief handed by his attendant, wiped the head of his scepter, and then threw the handkerchief on the corpse, smiling at Celine.
"Celine niece, long time no see."
Celine responded to the greeting of the Marquis de Rooney with her somewhat far-fetched smile.
Giorgio smiled, glanced around the crowd, and said with a smile, "My poor nephew was killed here by an abominable mercenary group, and you are all witnesses. ”
A discordant voice sounded from the side, and Guan Yiwen played with taste: "I don't know if the name of that mercenary group is called Renwu Mercenary Group, and whether the head of the group is called Zhongzhengyu?" ”
George nodded and looked at him and Nakasho Yu beside him in surprise: "That's right, could it be that Your Excellency has seen it?" ”
Guan Yiwen stopped talking, Zhong Zhengyu bowed slightly to Georgio, and said with a wry smile on his face: "Lord Rooney, you have a noble status, why bother our little mercenary group?" ”
The look of surprise on Georgio's face did not decrease at all, or even changed, he looked at Nakasho Yu and said exaggeratedly: "Could it be... You are the murderer of my nephew, Nakamasa Yu, the leader of the Renwu mercenary group? ”
Without waiting for Nakamasa Yu to answer, Giorgio muttered to himself: "Yes, my nephew died here, and of course there is a murderer among the people standing here." Of course it is impossible for my lovely Celine niece, not so can Lord Linton, who is of honorable status, and it is impossible for the two strangers who are the farthest away from him to come, so ......"
George looked at Nakasho Yu gloomily, Nakamasa Yu felt a chill rise behind him, and he couldn't understand why such a tall and sturdy marquis had such a pair of slender and narrow eyes like poisonous snakes. He was stared at by Georgio like a sparrow in a treetop watched by a snake close at hand.
"Well, of course, you guys."
As soon as the words fell, more than a dozen strong soldiers behind him had already rushed over and fought with Nakasho Yu and his Renwu mercenary group.
Guan Yiwen, who was on the same front as Zhongzheng Yu, raised his eyebrows, he moved two steps to the side slightly, staring at George O, George didn't move, he didn't move.
The other three parties had evil intentions, and no one stopped the sudden outbreak of fighting. An Li always had a smile on his face, and he always nodded and smiled when his eyes met with others in the air. Celine hung her head slightly, playing with something with both hands.
As for our Ning He and Zhu Yaotang, they are powerless, they are the farthest away, even if they want to help, the middle-aged men and proud women on their left and right will not let them get their wish.
Ning He said quietly: "Uncle? ”
Zhu Yaotang said: "Wait." ”
"Hmm."
Ning He silently watched the fight on the other side of the square, people kept falling to the ground, some people were dismembered by blades, and blood was spilled.
As a marquis, George came in this time with a lot of people, in addition to the dozen or so people who rushed over, there were three guards standing beside him. He looked coldly at the battle situation in front of the passage, the situation had begun to show one-sidedness, the so-called elite mercenaries of the Renwu Mercenary Regiment did not resist for too long in front of the well-equipped and trained marquis' personal guards, and in a blink of an eye, only Zhongzheng Yu and the other two mercenaries were still resisting, and the scars on their bodies were already visible.
Zhongzheng Yu gritted his teeth and fought fiercely with the three guards, Guan Yiwen on the side frowned slightly, he was hesitating whether to make a move, and whether he could survive after making a move.
It is true that the mercenaries of the Renwu Mercenary Regiment have shown enough bravery, and Nakasho Yu is also fighting the enemy without saying a word, but this is not a reason to impress him to make a move.
He and Nakashoyu are just a partnership.
"Ugh."
I don't know whose sigh it was, and whose arc of light shone in this square.
An elite guard, heavily armed, fell to the ground with a blast in the light of the sword.
George held the scepter in his hand, his brow furrowed slightly.
