Chapter 0253: Interrogation

The "Magic & Warhammer" adventure squad is a bronze adventurer squad.

It is also the squad that escorts the slaves of the boutique auction house.

In the past few days, because of an unexpected windfall,

Their squad celebrates almost every day.

Sometimes to the tavern, sometimes directly at the station.

Anyway, as long as people are sober, they want to celebrate.

But tonight, they celebrated again.

Because, they suffered a nightmare.

Not so long ago,

A masked man broke into their residence, a single-family apartment.

Towards them, who were celebrating, a massacre was launched.

In the face of intruding enemies,

In just a few minutes, the entire squad except for the captain Upa,

All of them died at the hands of the invaders.

Especially the mage teammate who was pinned on by Upa,

At the moment of activating the magic, he was touched by the hidden assassin behind him and sealed his throat with a knife.

In the end, only "Warhammer" Upa was left to face the vicious gangsters himself.

Upa held a huge war hammer in his hand, and the head of the war hammer radiated a blinding light,

Apparently a well-crafted and powerful weapon.

His opponent was a black-clad masked man armed with a long sword and a sturdy build.

The black-clothed masked man exuded a cold aura, and the tip of the long sword shimmered with cold light,

At first glance, you can tell that he is a warrior with superb swordsmanship.

The distance between the two was only ten steps, but their eyes were locked on each other.

In this tense atmosphere, a life-and-death battle is about to break out.

Upa swung the hammer in his hand and let out a deafening roar.

The strength of his whole body was condensed on the warhammer, ready to deliver a fatal blow.

The black-clad masked man calmly watched Upa's movements, his eyes shining with determination.

Unfazed by Upa's roar, he calmly waited for his opponent's attack.

At the moment when Upa launched a charge, the black-clothed masked man suddenly flashed and disappeared from Uppa's sight.

Upa was stunned for a moment, but his reaction was also very fast, and he immediately stopped the charge,

Began to look around for traces of the black-clad masked man.

At that moment, a sword light slashed from Upa's back, pointing directly at his vital point.

Upa's face changed, and he immediately swung the war hammer in his hand to block the sword.

But the black-clad masked man didn't stop attacking,

His swordsmanship was as smooth as flowing water, and the sword pointed at Upa's vital point.

Upa was in danger of being attacked by the black-clad masked man, but he still resisted stubbornly.

The battle had reached a critical juncture, and the aura of Upa and the black-clad masked man was constantly growing.

Each of their attacks is full of strength and determination,

It's as if every move is announcing one's existence to the opponent.

Uppa's warhammer arced through the air, each swing with a strong wind.

There was a wild aura about him, but his eyes were determined.

The black-clothed masked man's sword technique is more flexible,

His sword seemed to appear unexpectedly at a critical moment every time.

There was an air of indifference from his body, as if no matter what happened, he couldn't shake his determination.

The intensity of the battle was stunning, and the two men attacked almost evenly between them.

Upa's strength and the agility of the black-clad masked man are a perfect contrast,

Every move they make is full of skill and beauty.

As the minutes ticked by, the battle between Upa and the black-clad masked man continued.

Their aura grew stronger, but their eyes grew calmer.

Upa swung the hammer in his hand again, and the sheer force created a strong current of air around his body.

The muscles in his body were bulging, and it was clear that he had used his full strength.

The black-clothed masked man didn't flinch, his sword light drawing beautiful arcs in the air.

His swordsmanship has been brought to the extreme, and he is clearly a highly skilled fighter.

Upa finally unleashed his final assault, his hammer slamming into the black-clad masked man with a strong wind.

"Concussion Splitting Hammer!"

And the black-clad masked man also launched a final attack at the same time.

"Mystery: Wind Wolf Tooth Protrusion!"

His sword stabbed at Uppa's vital point from an unexpected angle.

But at the last moment, Upa suddenly twisted his body and skillfully dodged the attack of the black-clothed masked man.

And his war hammer drew an arc in the air, directly hitting the sword body of the black-clothed masked man.

"Ding!" The sound of two weapons colliding together echoed throughout the battlefield.

The sword of the black-clad masked man was shaken off course by Upa's power,

Upa's war hammer slammed directly into the chest of the black-clad masked man.

At this critical moment, the masked man in black did not flinch in the slightest,

He had only determination and fearless courage in his eyes.

At this moment, Upa suddenly felt a stab in his hand.

The war hammer in his hand couldn't be grasped, and it fell to the ground with a "clang".

Upa was shocked, but he didn't have time to react.

He could only watch as a cold light hit the door in front of him.

"It's over!"

Upa closed his eyes in resignation.

However, after waiting for a while, the pain of death did not appear.

On the contrary, his neck was cold, and he seemed to be held by an ice blade.

Upa hurriedly opened his eyes and saw the assassin who had killed the team's mage,

At this time, he was standing beside him, with a dagger around his neck.

"If you don't want to die, don't move!"

Sophia's cold voice sounded, so that Upa did not dare to move.

"Cooperate well with our questioning, maybe we can let you live."

Leo stepped forward with his sword in his hand and said coldly.

Upa looked at the corpses of the team members all over the ground, though he didn't quite believe Sophia's words.

But he still has to work hard, in case people really keep their promises!

"If you want to know anything, just ask, I hope I can answer your questions."

Upa replied listlessly, as if resigned to his fate.

Leo stared at Upa tightly, trying to catch any subtle clues from his expression.

Upa's expression was full of confusion and a hint of nervousness, and it was clear that he was worried about the problems he was about to face.

Leo cleared his throat and began the interrogation: "I heard that you are on the way to this mission,

Picked up a little girl, can you tell me how you found that little girl? ”

Upa's brow furrowed, struggling to remember.

"I remember it was a night when my crew and I were on patrol near the camp,

We found her by a frozen creek. ”

"What was her situation then?" Leo's tone became more serious.

"She looked very weak and covered in scars. We took her back to the camp and gave her treatment and food.

But she almost caused us to fail. ”

Upa replied earnestly.

Leo frowned slightly when he heard this.

He looked at Upa and pondered for a moment, then continued to ask:

"Where is that little girl now? I need to make further inquiries about her. ”

Upa looked up at Leo, "She's in the hands of the slave trader right now. Because she takes advantage of our rest,

Intending to secretly let go of the employer's goods, the people of our team sold her to the employer in a fit of anger.

I know where the employer lives, and we've worked with him many times. I can take you to him. ”

Leo waved his hand and refused, "This is not in a hurry. If you think about it again,

Did the girl say what her name was, where she was from, and why she was in that place? ”

Upa saw that Leo had always cared so much about the little girl, and suddenly thought,

These two people must have come to avenge that girl!

Otherwise, why have you been asking for the girl's information and whereabouts.

If the other party is really related to that little girl,

To tell the truth, the end is definitely not much better than that of a partner who has died.

So, with a twinkle in his eyes, Upa replied:

"Nope. We don't know her well. Originally, we saw her in distress, but we kindly rescued her.

But I didn't expect her to betray us. Where do we still have the heart to inquire about her origins?

After selling her, we didn't bother to deal with her at all, lest the caravan think that we were deliberately causing trouble,

Acting to cheat employers out of their money. ”

Leo didn't believe a word of Upa's answer.

This is completely inconsistent with the information Sofina has investigated.

"You're lying!"

Leo picked up the sword in his hand and slammed it into Uppa's knee.

"Ahh

Upa clutched his shattered knee and let out a scream.
