Chapter 13 Another twist and turn
On the way, after Locke's further detailed introduction, Butian already had some ideas in his heart.
According to the information revealed in Locke's mouth, the strength of the Thieves Alliance is now distributed in the Holy Order Alliance, and the tip of the iceberg is slowly revealed in front of Butian's eyes.
The strongest person in the League of Thieves is now sitting in the Holy Order Alliance, and he is a terrifying eight-star thief.
Speaking of such a deposit, I'm afraid that a finger can poke Butian to death.
Of course, such a ruthless person would not surrender his identity to Butian.
After careful analysis by the two, after the League of Thieves found the clues, they would only include this incident as a two-star mission.
In this way, the thieves who came to chase them would inevitably not exceed two stars in strength.
Thinking of this, Bu Tian breathed a small sigh of relief in his heart.
If it's only a two-star thief, as long as the number is not too large, he is still sure that he will save his life, so there is no need to worry too much.
The carriage moved forward at a very fast pace, and more than ten days passed in a flash.
The last leg of the journey to Sparta slowly narrows the distance as the carriage continues to advance, and it may take another day to reach the final destination.
After more than ten days of hurrying, the wound in Butian's palm that was pierced by the dagger had already recovered intact, but the speed at which the wound in Locke's body recovered was so slow that it was anxious.
After such a long period of cultivation, Locke's physical condition in the attribute bar is still displayed in a state of serious injury, and the value has only changed from 42% at the beginning to 45%.
This kind of turtle speed restoration effect, let Bu Tian speechless, but also sighed at the strength of his own ability to recover.
And after frequent exchanges during this period of time on the road, the relationship between Butian and Locke has eased a lot, and he also learned from Locke about the way to acquire combat skills that he is very concerned about.
Some powerful people have passed the test of certain forces and eventually become members of their forces. After completing tasks of various levels of difficulty, accumulating merit and qualifications, and after reaching a certain level of merit, combat skills are granted.
Of course, this is just the most common and common way to acquire combat skills.
I heard Locke mention that there are also some skills created by some strong people in different eras, and the strength of these skills is different, and the methods of obtaining them are also novel.
For example, someone who can't think of jumping off a cliff to commit suicide ends up falling into a waterhole at the bottom of the cliff.
The so-called catastrophe will have a blessing after death, and this lucky suicide "coincidentally" found a cave at the bottom of the cliff. After entering, he obtained a powerful skill of so-and-so, and after he completed it, he had an extremely powerful and amazing skill effect.
For example, a famous adventurer escaped into a forbidden place in the process of being chased by the enemy, and there is absolutely no end to life.
When everyone was sighing about it, the famous adventurer returned from the Jedi soon after, killing his enemy with three punches and two kicks, and later heard that he had obtained a mysterious combat skill in that Jedi, which had an anti-heaven effect on combat effectiveness.
There are countless other rumors like this, and the storyline is even more speechless.
The bloody place of these legendary stories made Bu Tian extremely sad and angry. Who is the master of the era that has crossed over?
He is really a god-level existence that has crossed over, why doesn't he have such luck?
Fortunately, there is good news.
Locke said that there are many auctions held every year in some big cities, and at that auction, there are many skill books that are put up for auction.
This good news relieved Butian's somewhat depressed mood.
At least there is one hope, but if it doesn't work, he will join a faction and mix a few skills to solve his hunger first.
"Locke, how long will it take us to get to Sparta. I've had enough of this journey. ”
Butian's voice suddenly came from the carriage, and his tone was full of impatience.
Locke drove the carriage smoothly along the road, and when he heard Butian's impatient words, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but raise a smile.
I don't know how many times I complained along the way, and it seems that my owner really hates the feeling of riding in a car.
He glanced at the retreating scenery on either side of the road for a few moments before his distinctively dry voice gave Butian the answer he wanted.
"Master, we should be two hundred kilometers away from Sparta now, and it is just after morning, and with the speed of our carriage, we should be able to reach Sparta at dusk, if nothing else. ”
"Dusk, well, damn it, then I'll bear with this boring journey a little longer. ”
Bu Tian cursed, and lost the interest in continuing to talk.
He reclined back on the bench in the carriage and closed his eyes to rest, but his desire to rest peacefully was probably interrupted again.
"Phew"
Locke pulled the reins and halted his horse, and the carriage that followed behind also stopped the rolling wheels.
No sooner had the wheel stopped than Locke suddenly jumped out of the carriage and looked not far ahead of the official road.
"...... this?"
Looking at the scene in front of the official road, Locke was a little puzzled, but his thoughts were interrupted by Butian's words.
"What's wrong? Locke, what's wrong?"
Butian was initially awakened by the sudden halt of the carriage from his resting state, but when he sensed the doubts in Locke's heart through the connection of the master-servant contract, he also asked with some curiosity.
Locke looked at the scene in front of him, and said helplessly: "Master, I'm also wondering, there seem to be two sides fighting ahead." You might as well come down and see for yourself. ”
"Squeak"
The carriage door was gently pushed open, and Bu Tianwei bowed his head and walked out.
Glancing at the front in confusion, Butian raised his feet and jumped out of the carriage, took a few steps forward, and looked towards the chaotic scene not far away.
I saw that the crowd fighting fiercely in front of me was divided into two groups, and their total number was about more than ten people.
At this time, the two sides in the fight, one side is on the defensive, and the other side is summoning a fierce attack.
On one side of them was an old man in yellow with a dignified face and two young men dressed in fine clothes, and two female dependents beside the carriage behind them.
On the other side were seven uniformly dressed in black and masked in black scarves.
The group of people were of different heights, each with steady steps, and they cooperated closely with each other's moves in the battle, which directly pressed the old man in yellow and the other two young men in danger.
If nothing else, the defeat of the old man's side is only a matter of time. As for what to do with the fierce men in black after the defeat, it seems to be self-evident.
Bu Tian watched the fierce fight between the two sides with a calm face, and he had already seen the strength of the two sides a little.
Among these people, the old man in yellow should have a low-level 2-level strong strength.
He alone entangled the four men in black, and although he was suppressed to the upper hand, he was temporarily fine.
And the rest of the people, whether it was the seven men in black or the other two young people, only had the strength of the lower level 1.
As for the two female dependents who were hiding next to the carriage and had been shocked, they had not even reached the strength of the low-level 1 level.
The key to success or failure in the battle was not the most powerful old man in yellow, but the other two young men, who were now struggling to resist the onslaught of the three men in black who were closely coordinated with each other.
If these two young men defeated the three men in black, they might be able to save the whole battle and cooperate with the old man in yellow to repel the other four men in black.
It's a pity that they look like wolves now, and they really can't afford to do this.
The situation on the entire battlefield was already very clear, and Bu Tian was also a little hesitant in his heart, not knowing whether to rescue him.
Now that he has been targeted by the League of Thieves, if he continues to make enemies everywhere, I am afraid that his life will be in danger.
But if you don't make a move, look at the ruthless posture of the man in black, maybe the other party will kill the old man in yellow. will immediately turn his attention to the two of them, and kill them all, leaving no witnesses.
"The two friends in the back, please also help out, and afterwards I must give a generous gift, and please... Uh-huh. ”
An old-fashioned voice came from ahead, mixed with a muffled snort.
Bu Tianxun looked over, but it was the old man in yellow who shouted at his side.
However, before he could finish his words, he was discovered by the enemy because of a flaw, and a hunchbacked man in black seized the opportunity and fiercely begged Xin to accept the pun
Judging from the power contained in this finger, its attack power is not trivial.
After the old man struck this finger, it was as if he had been stabbed in the shoulder with a sharp weapon, and blood suddenly gushed out of the wound, and the words he was about to utter turned into a painful snort.
After the hunchbacked black-clothed man had severely injured the old man in yellow, he turned his gaze to the two of Bu Tian from afar, his eyes were extremely gloomy, containing a strong sense of warning and a hint of murderous intent.
"The hosts... We..."
Locke heard the old man's plea for help, looked at the hunchbacked black-clothed man who had warned them with a cold look, and turned his head to look at Butian with some hesitation.
As for the meaning of Locke's heart, Butian is also very clear.
At this point, the situation of the fight in the field was already obvious, and the only variable was the two of them who were outside the battlefield.
However, the serious injuries in Locke's body have not yet healed, so he doesn't want to make this trip, but the decision is up to Butian, so he seems a little hesitant.
"It's okay, your injuries are not healed. I'll try to make a move later, so don't get involved, just stay where you are. Bu Tian said to Locke with a smile, his eyes were unusually bright at the moment.
"Master, we don't have to meddle in it, why take such a big risk?"
Locke was a little anxious, and his dry voice was a little sharp.
He is now seriously injured and has no effective combat effectiveness, but if he allows Butian to go to the battle alone, if something happens, he will not have a good time as a servant.
"This time the risk must be taken. If we stand by and wait for the man in black to kill them all, then it will be time for us to be stabbed. ”
Bu Tian looked at the field, as if he was talking to himself and seemed to be explaining to Locke.
Locke was a little speechless and just wanted to interject. Bu Tian continued to whisper to himself: "If that old guy hadn't asked for help just now, I would have been a little hesitant.
But now, this muddy water must be waded into. This group of men in black has begun to pay attention to us, and perhaps with their hands free, it is time for us to be besieged. Judging by the ruthlessness of their shots, Locke ......"
Bu Tian glanced at Locke, who was a little nervous beside him.
With a sigh in his heart, Locke understood the meaning of Butian's words.
He nodded, reluctantly agreeing.
