Chapter 21: A Different Kane
The perfume street is even more lively during the Winter Festival, with noble ladies twisting their waists and browsing from shop to shop to choose their favorite goods. Kane is neatly dressed, and since his last return from Rand, he has received many rewards, not only the Golden Wolf badge, but also a generous gold coin reward.
He used the money to exchange a little gear, and although the wound on his face had healed, it still left a faint trace. But this is nothing to him, and it will naturally disappear in two days.
Kane followed the position given by Wilkin to the Perfume Street post office, and at the front counter he saw Arya, who had not been seen for a while, perhaps because she had a good job here, and the whole person looked very different from before, and looked much more beautiful than before.
Arya soon spotted Kane as well, rubbing her eyes in disbelief, and after being sure that she was not mistaken, she ran over and threw herself into Kane's arms, hugging him tightly.
Kane, who has always been unsmiling, showed a rare smile, and the post office leader on duty wanted to come forward and ask Arya to go back to work, but he was scared away by the golden wolf badge that Kane took out, and he also wanted to invite Kane in to sit down and entertain Kane, but Kane refused.
He took Arya to the Winter Festival market for a day and bought a batch of goods.
Then he returned to the house where he had lived together for a while, and Micinro couldn't go back, and it was blown up by Kane himself. So they went back to the place where Arya had placed him before. Arya was busy working in the kitchen, while Kane sat on the old couch and picked up a newspaper he had bought, and saw the recent events in Carrot City.
After the Battle of the Ice Sea, Sauron was completely abandoned by Kaiser Wilhelm, and returned to Harrens to be punished in the next few days, and the affairs there were temporarily managed by Duke AndrΓ©'s men, and the Hammer family was ready to apply to be stationed there.
After reading the newspaper for a while, Arya called Kane to dinner. At the dinner table, Kane praised her for her good workmanship, much better than what he had done before. Kane then asked her a lot about the recent situation, and of course he hadn't forgotten the injuries he had suffered when Arya came back last time, and now he has the power to help you get revenge.
"You can tell me what happened to the wound on your face last time." Kane wiped his mouth and looked calmly into her eyes.
Arya told her about the last time she was bullied by the fat guard, and the fat man asked her for special services, but she was refused, and the fat man wanted to use the strong one. However, Arya struggled to resist, and the people around him noticed the situation on his side, and the fat man didn't dare to be blatant, after all, he was not a big man, and he only had a little power in his hands.
Knowing the answer, Kane didn't stay any longer, and Arya wanted to keep him here for the night, but Kane refused.
Under the cover of night, Kane went out.
Today's Winter Yuan Festival, the guards of the almshouse got a lot of benefits, and they were given a few bottles of inferior Maren wine, and they were given half a day off. In the evening, it was time for them to start their party, and after the fat man had eaten and drunk enough, he was ready to go to the peach district to find a woman to vent his anger.
He dragged his drunken fat body all the way to burp, leaned against the wall, hummed a little song and walked towards the peach-colored area, and in the middle of the road, a dark shadow came from behind him, and the fat man's body was patted by someone. As soon as he turned his head, a sharp blade cut through the veins in his throat, and blood gushed out, no matter how much he covered the wound, it was useless.
After cleanly dealing with the fat man, he was about to leave, when a voice stopped Kane.
"Hey, Kane, you're here too." Luther came out from behind, his dark green eyes looking a little scary and a little weird in the dark.
He kicked the corpse on the ground, "I didn't expect you to be simple, you are very skilled in killing." Now I have a mission to do, come with me. It just so happens that those neuropathies are also there, so you can get to know them well. β
Luther extended an invitation to Kane, he did have a mission tonight, and it was a mission that was in conjunction with their last unfinished mission. Kane nodded in agreement, they are an organization, and there will always be opportunities for cooperation between each other. Tonight is also an opportunity.
Luther and Kane came to the black market, and they walked towards the Wormtail Tavern, the lights flickering and on, and the drunken man stumbled out of the tavern, with a bottle in his hand, hooking his shoulders and talking drunk.
One center of gravity was unstable and he almost fell to the ground. Luther and Kane entered the tavern together, and on the way two drunks stopped their way, and Luther pushed the two short-eyed fellows away with one hand, and they fell into the narrator's garbage heap like a weak wind, and several wild cats scratched their faces.
The floor of the Wormtail Tavern is littered with food scraps, and flying wine glasses hit the jackpot like hidden weapons. Many drunks in the tavern gathered around a small Colosseum, which the owner Fei Wen had specially ordered to be dug up for the drunks to tease the mice.
The upper nobles are fierce beasts, and drunks like them who have no money can only tease mice. A Philgi orc shouted the fiercest, and the people around him hugged him around his neck and kissed him wildly, and he raised his fist in a victorious gesture.
A tooth with gums had fallen from a table, and it looked like an interesting battle had just taken place.
Kane followed Luther to a relatively quiet table and sat down, where the mage Anne had been waiting for a long time.
"This is the guy Virgin brought? It won't be as crashy as that kid. Cyrus the orc clasped his hands in front of his chest and looked at Kane with scrutinizing eyes.
"Don't beat his mind." Luther reminded him, "Don't underestimate him. Otherwise, you're going to lose a lot, man. His dark green eyes made Cyrus uncomfortable.
He couldn't help but say, "Don't look at me with your damn eyes!" β
"Alright, stop arguing. This is where we're going tonight! Do you see clearly?" said Mage Anne, pointing with her slender and beautiful finger somewhere on the map she had pulled out. Kane looked at this map with a familiar look, because it was the map of Carrot City.
The place she pointed to was the location of Hank Street, where I had recently heard that there were dark wizards, before there were dark wizards in the underground black market, and now their range of activities and the goal of their activities have become the royal city on the ground.
Hammer received an order from William to solve the trouble here as soon as possible, and Harrence almost began to lock down the city, and if he couldn't find the dark wizard again, everyone would have a hard time.
"Just us?" Kane asked.
"Of course, it's not just us, the rest of the Night Wolves' team has also set up an ambush nearby, and we're just one of the people in charge of finishing the work. The others must have arrived there yet, and if they had gone quickly, they would have been able to catch a good fight. Anne put away the map.
"Everyone is here, let's go!" The belligerent Cyrus stood up, and the rest of the group hurried out of the tavern toward Hank Street. On the way, they also saw a large number of armies rushing towards them, and the knights on horseback were heavily armed, and the heavy iron horsemen were rushing straight away.
"It seems that today's things are not easy." Kane sighed inwardly.
At Hank Street, Abydeus stood at the top of the spire, and the street below was full of fire, and several black wolves turned into fog killed everywhere below. One of them threw the knight on his horse to the ground, and several wolves immediately stepped forward and tore him to pieces.
The knights' swords slashed at the black wolf and did no harm, and when they struck the black wolf, they turned into a black mist and dispersed, but soon it condensed again and continued to cause chaos.
The other mages were rushing this way, and Munet's prophecy crystal had already calculated the exact location of Abides, and he rode at a gallop, and suddenly the sky was full of clouds and thunder, and a thunderbolt fell. It seems to have come specifically for Abydes.
The minaret was split in half and fell, rocks fell to the ground, and some knights who had too late to dodge were killed on the spot. Munet didn't care about the loss of these lives, he only cared about whether the dark wizard Abydius was killed or not.
But the result was not satisfactory, Abydes was not only not injured by the lightning, but also backhanded the flame demon explosion that had been buried here for a long time, and the huge explosion instantly engulfed the knight who had no time to escape, and Munit came out of the explosion with the blessing of the divine shield.
"Hehe, you're another well-level mage, you're the one who just slashed me with thunder! If you like thunder, then I'll ask you to always burst my flames! "Abides shot out black thunderbolts, mixed with many fiery fire elements.
The powerful magic explosion shook, and Munet's shield was shattered on the spot, and at the last moment, fortunately, he had the space arcane scroll to shift his position before leaving the center of the explosion. The Phantom of the Prophecy Crystal in his hand appeared in his palm, and he once again used the crystal to spy on the location of Abides.
But at the moment he could not be happy, for Abides seemed to have noticed that he was spying on him, and then he saw Abides smiling cruelly at him, and the great flames and falling thunder struck down on the building here.
Houses built here are in ruins, and meteor-like rainbows fall in enchanting and dangerous colors.
Kane, who was still in the distance, suddenly stopped, and Anne, who was a mage, exclaimed, "This is not a task that we can solve at all!" Under this kind of spell attack, we may not even have scum left. β
Kane was in line with her thoughts, the fire demon last time was powerful enough, but it was too pediatric compared to this.
"What now? The city guards are still rushing over there, and we don't have a chance to retreat. Luther said to the people.
"Then go on! Phigi orcs are not in the habit of retreating! Rushing forward is always the first priority in our hearts, and the Phigi only died on the way to charge, not on the way back! Cyrus was as excited as a brawling bull, he tightened his reins and roared, "Rush!" Then the men and horses rushed out like crazy.
Kane looked at Luther, and Luther sighed; "Let's go together, just protect your little life carefully, and pray in our hearts that Lady Luck will be on our side."
With reinforcements from knights and city guards, Hank Street is littered with corpses. Munet's frost magic extinguishes the incessant flames.
When he was overwhelmed, Master Yorick arrived aboard a magical dragon, and he was ecstatic to point out Abydes' hideout.
The dragon spat out dragon flames and scorched the area, and Abides was forced to emerge from the darkness.
