Chapter 332: Halfway Kill
(I just got home at the peak of my return trip.) Well, I'll write a chapter first. From tomorrow, the update is back to normal, oh no, it's going to break up and make up!)
In the evening, at the entrance of the tavern.
"Sir stay, just send it here, Xiexie's hospitality today!"
"Haha, as it should be. Well, please consider our proposal...... In short, we are sincere in our cooperation. ”
"Sir, rest assured...... Well, by the way, our people are offended today, Sir Simpson...... No problem, right?"
The harmonious farewell scene suddenly stagnated, whether it was the new nobles and their group, or Div, they all unconsciously turned their heads to look at a certain guy with a flat face, and his expression was a little strange.
"Uh...... No matter how you say it, there were no casualties, and the problem should be, it shouldn't be big......"
Measuring the size of the problem by casualties, and the object is still a nobleman, Ronald felt that his words were very unconfident no matter what he said, and he replied hesitantly, and Zuihou was vague.
Clearly, this issue is not suitable for in-depth discussion. The new aristocracy didn't have a good impression of the Simpsons' group, and just now they saw each other fall into hysteria, unconscious, dumbfounded, and a little gloating in their hearts. But when he thought that the young man named Arthur who had achieved this effect was the object of his negotiation, he naturally felt a little pressured in his heart.
In other words, the scene is a little weird. Fortunately, now that they were about to part, Josia and Naronard exchanged a few polite words and tacitly pedaled away.
The tavern for this negotiation was in the center of the city, and although it was late in the evening, the flow of people was still unabated. Since there are many people, there are many eyes. It is naturally not easy to evacuate covertly.
But Don and the others had already thought about it. So as soon as I got into the carriage. Several cars headed for the city square at the same time, then staggered with each other and left in different directions.
Tang En was naturally with Josia, and after several transfers, circles, etc., the two got into the car of Ba Lao, who had been waiting for a long time.
After a moment, lowering the curtain and retracting his gaze from behind, Don turned to Josia and said, "Alright." Safety!" Then he opened the front door, "Ba Lao, follow the route we predetermined before...... Well, pay attention to the surroundings. ”
"Okay, don't worry, I'm a scout. ...... driving"
In the carriage, Josia, who was slightly tired, stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyes, and then said with some joy: "Build an independent civilian college and pilot tax reduction on a small scale...... Hehe, it's a good day, and I've finally gained something. ”
There was a pause. Habitually tilted his head and frowned, "But I always feel a little strange." Although there is a discount, it ...... The other party seems to be deliberately currying favor with us, is there any condition?"
"There should be, Gollum ......" Don on the side picked up the teapot and poured it directly, his voice was a little hoarse, "I came out once halfway and saw Philip...... Well, his spirit is a little bad, but he still asked me for the contact location of the secret agency, probably to be a microphone. ”
The Creekside Tavern is an important stronghold of the secret agencies in Mountain Creek City, and in order to prevent it from being taken away from being taken away, or if there is no foothold when it is transferred, several other secondary contact points are also set up in the city. This is also true in other cities, and the difference is only a few degrees.
"I see. Josia didn't care about Philip's state, and nodded abruptly after hearing Done's words. This time, the members of the aristocratic negotiation team are obviously opposed, and it is really inconvenient for the new nobles to do something. And Philip, as a person who knows both sides, is not noticeable, so it is naturally the best choice to communicate through him.
Thinking of this, Josia's previous little joy immediately subsided. Obviously, this negotiation has not yet reached the real substantive stage, and then as if he thought of something, he secretly glanced at Tang En, covered his mouth and chuckled: "That's right! Tang, how did you behave today...... Hehe, it's amazing!"
After being with Don for a long time, Josia is also used to using these strange sounding words of the world. With a wave of his hand, Don En picked up the kettle again with a nonchalant expression: "Isn't this being caught up on the shelf, cough cough, grunt...... It hurt Lao Tzu's throat to breathe fire. Now, you know, I've always been very modest. ”
Catch up on the shelves...... Humble...... Josia grinned, her eyes wide open, as if she was listening to some kind of fantasy. How can you make those Simpsons who are so angry that they are about to vomit blood......
The horse-drawn carriage passed through the lively streets, and the surrounding buildings gradually changed from a forest of shops to rows of low-rise houses, a few oil lamps and sparks, no pedestrians in sight, and some remote and desolate.
It will undoubtedly be much more difficult to track in such an environment. So the old man in front of the car tightened the reins and gradually raised the speed.
In the carriage, Don looked at Josia stunned, and for a moment, he smacked his lips and put down the kettle: "Don't look at me like this...... You can't have a personality cult, and don't be so obsessed with my brother, my brother is really just a legend...... Huh?"
Before the words fell, Tang En's body stiffened, his lazy expression disappeared in an instant, and his narrow eyes narrowed slightly, shining like a blade.
At this moment, hiss......
The panicked horse neighed, and the body leaned forward, as if it had tripped over something. Then an angry roar rang out, "Be careful!"
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh......
The bowstrings vibrated and the arrows whistled.
Everything happened in an instant, and Don was in the car, sensing that something was wrong with his sensitivity to danger. Although he is a little weaker in this regard, he is a scout and has an almost instinctive alertness to his surroundings. In normal times, the two of them can see something from a few tens of meters away. But this time, it was a little late......
The reason is very simple, whether it is Tang En or Ba Lao, they all keep their eyes on the back and observe if anyone is following. This raid was more like someone was ambushing here, and a special trap was waiting for them to drill.
Bang, bang, bang......
The horses fell, and the wood flew wide. Sharp arrows struck at the same time from all directions, and the thin wall of the car was completely vulnerable in front of it, and it was shattered in an instant.
After a round of arrow rain, there was a pause for only a second, and the light and darkness went out. The arrow quickly turned. Dodo-do...... Arrows landed on the bluestone floor. It makes a dense popping sound like fried beans.
Some shot at the front of the carriage. There, Ba Lao jumped out of the carriage and rolled on the ground. Most of the arrows were fired at the back of the carriage, for there was a figure that rolled on the ground a few times and rose rapidly, its figure flickering and moving like a ghost, dodging the whistling arrows in an instant.
Needless to say, it was Donn, or rather, Donn, who was holding Josia from the bottom of the carriage to protrude the first round of arrow rain coverage.
The eyes are cold. While dodging the arrows, Donn's gaze quickly locked on the dozens of figures holding bows and arrows on the surrounding rooftops. Then his eyelids jumped and he yelled, "Go, go, go......"
Obviously, this sentence was addressed to Ba Lao, because after the rain of arrows was fruitless, the shape of the arrows that came immediately was somewhat strange......
Boom, boom, boom......
The arrows touched the ground, like a powder keg that instantly ignited the fuse, and the waves of air rolled like a tidal wave, and the hard floor was in front of this explosive liliang. It's easy to get blown off.
"Ba Lao ......"
There was a brief exclamation, but it was Josia who saw through the light of the fire that Ba Lao's figure was blown down by the air wave in the shadow of the corner. Immediately, a few arrows disappeared into the ...... Bang, Don pulled up to the extreme, and smashed the general fit into the wall of a house on the side of the road before the air wave arrived. Without waiting to stop, he rushed inside again, smashing several walls in a row.
After a pause, Don put down Josia, flipped his hand and lit up the dagger, and said hurriedly: "They are coming for us, you go to save Ba Lao, be careful, there are magic arrows!"
Not many people know that Josia is a magician, and most of them are insiders of the secret services. But just now, in the first round of arrow rain, there were clear traces of demon-breaking arrows, and it was obvious that this group of people was coming for them.
After the words fell, Tang En jumped out of the window on one side lightly, grabbed the eaves on the window lattice with one foot and turned it over, and after a little probe, the arrow rain had stopped, and dozens of figures over there were carrying all kinds of weapons to rush towards this side, showing that they were a jiashi who was chasing and killing to the end.
"Interesting...... muttered, and Donn's eyes flashed with evil, and he silently stepped on the roof tiles and ran to the west.
As if pinching the time, a man in black with a strong body had just turned the corner from that side, and saw a black shadow in front of him, faster than this, a cold light that smeared his throat......
"Here...... Uh, sizzle......"
The warning sound was short and urgent, and then there was a series of meaningless words leaking air, staggering a few steps, stepping on the air, and the man in black simply fell from the roof, making a dull sound of falling to the ground.
"Over there, go up and around it!"
Hearing the movement, the black-clothed people scattered on the roof turned their heads in unison, and saw a black shadow flash away from the eaves, and hurriedly surrounded and killed.
Because of the previous ambush, the man in black stood relatively loosely, and it can be said that no matter where the person goes, he will inevitably be surrounded.
"Next, stop him!"
Ding Ding ...... The black-clothed man who arrived first saw the black shadow falling on the alleyway, and hurriedly beckoned the people over there to fall down and block it. But with a few blade strikes and the sound of falling to the ground, when he turned around, there was no trace of the black shadow, and he saw the first companion to fall, chest, thigh, wrist...... There was a curtain of blood spraying everywhere on his body, and he was no longer alive.
"Damn, isn't it a magician?" the man in black was shocked when he saw this. In such a short period of time, and the distance is still so close, the effect in front of him is obviously not something that a mage who is not good at melee combat can do.
"Oh? Who told you ......?"
With a faint voice, the man in black was excited, and he saw a black shadow quickly turn out from behind his blood-spraying companion, and it was in front of him in an instant. Subconsciously swing the knife and slash vertically, miss, and pull out the arc horizontal chop, miss......
"Here's a magician?"
Stand back, attack, back off, back off, back off...... At such a close distance, it was too late to explode into vindictiveness, let alone answer questions. The man in black wanted to distance himself and give the sword room to wield. But with one step back, the cold blade in front of him filled his sight, and he had to retreat step by step.
However, it was only less than five steps back, and the ghostly black shadow instantly cut close to his side, slashed his wrist, and flew the sword...... In a short moment, before the man in black could figure out what was going on, the defense line was broken in an instant, and his eyes were black, and he fell to the ground softly.
Retracting his left hand, Tang En looked indifferently at the unconscious man in black: "I will always let you say ......" The words fell, and he raised his head suddenly, looking at the man in black who came after going to the roof, the corners of his mouth pulled out a cold arc, and the figure retreated and fell into the black curtain behind him......
............ (To be continued......)
