Section 77 Hijacking

"Boss, they're up for it. A small man hurried up to Nighthawk.

At this moment, Nighthawk and six of his men were standing in a side alley. These six subordinates are all his most trusted and capable subordinates. All of them, including Nighthawk, were fully armed. In addition to carrying melee weapons, each person also carried a military crossbow. They were all dressed in heavy traveling cloaks, hiding their weapons under them.

"That's right, that's great...... That's great...... Nighthawk said overjoyed. "If you look at it again, remember, don't get involved in the conflict, just think of yourself as a passer-by watching the excitement. ”

The spies were ordered to leave, and Nighthawk kept rubbing his hands in excitement. Little Byron really hit the trick...... Ha Lu Ha ...... I'm so lucky to have found such a great opportunity.

"Boss," one of his subordinates said with a slight uneasiness. "Are we just waiting here?"

"Of course, what are you afraid of? Oh, you're afraid of the Scarlet Rose?" he waved his hand. "Don't worry about this, although this is a flower district, we didn't come here to trouble Rhodia. Scarlet Rose won't make a move. Don't worry, if Scarlet Rose will do it casually, there is probably no man on this street!"

Of course, even if there is a possibility of provoking the Scarlet Rose, this trip is a must. This is indeed a gamble worth his big money.

"Young Master," another subordinate asked. "For what little Byron will go to find ......"

"Because he's an idiot, of course. "It must be said that Nighthawk is really happy at this moment, and even says all kinds of words that he has been pressing in his heart. On the other hand, he's been pressed long enough, and now he finally has a chance to speak out. "What is a fool who knows what a fool is? That is a stupid person, but he does not know his own stupidity. ”

"For example, this little Byron is obviously living a luxurious life of drunken dreams all day long, but he hopes that he can make a career and make a performance that impresses Duke Byron. Hmph, if you want to achieve great things, who doesn't go all out and walk down step by step in a down-to-earth manner? Not to mention those who succeed in the end to make a career, even those who fall short or even die halfway, it took countless time, energy, and even blood to reach that level. Only those idiots are counting on the pie that lies in bed, spending all its days drinking while waiting for the gods to fall...... Gotta hit him in the mouth. He let out a cold snort of disdain. "People who have desires but are unwilling to make corresponding efforts are the biggest wrongdoers in the world, and they are born to be used and deceived by others. ”

After saying this, he couldn't help but laugh a few times. He was so happy to see that things were about to succeed.

"But...... The other party is the queen after all. What can little Byron do?"

"You can't figure this out? What is Duke Byron's biggest goal, or biggest trouble, right now? Of course, it is the rivalry with General Rafa. Isn't everyone saying that the two sides are on equal footing? Our little queen will be three years old, and it is too early to say anything before she is married, and no one can say what will happen in three years. If little Byron did something at this time that the little queen had to marry him...... Or at least it improves the possibility, then even the Duke of Byron must admit that little Byron is doing a good job. ”

Nighthawk gritted her teeth—not nervously, but excitedly. "So I just use ...... Tell little Byron a little bit about it, and that idiot will do the stupidest thing according to his instincts...... If he can take advantage of this opportunity to kidnap the queen......"

"But...... But...... In case he does kidnap the little queen......"

"Our Mr. Ashrufat will stop him. ”

"Ashrufat?

"The one who accompanied the queen out of the palace and wandered around. Nighthawk replied. "A brilliant warrior who is fully commensurate with his position in terms of ability. He was the perennial champion of the gladiatorial arena before...... What's it called...... A public duel was fought. You must have heard of this thing, the cult god who infiltrated Eagle City...... Our venerable Mr. Ashruphat sent that fellow to his evil master in three or two clicks. According to the unanimous opinion of the audience, in that duel, Eshurufat had an overwhelming advantage in strength, and the victory came easily, without surprise, without even shedding a drop of sweat. ”

"But what if that Mr. Eshuruphat can't stop him?"

"Then, of course, we have to rely on some other good people who draw their swords to help when they see injustice. For example, a few of us. Nighthawk laughed. He made a code, and his men took out their face coverings to cover their faces.

"From now on, we are the Queen's secret guards. Nighthawk said. "It is our duty to stand up and defend the Queen when she is in danger!" his voice sneered. "Isn't that the duty of the Gruni people?"

......

Ashrufat raised his crow sword and blocked a slash from the diagonal stab. Taking advantage of this brief opportunity, he flew up and kicked the man on his left in the chest. The other man staggered back, and Ashrufat dodged another stab and swooped down on the guy who hadn't stopped yet. His movements were as fast as a ghost, and the other party didn't even have a chance to resist, and as soon as the crow sword fell, half of the head immediately flew out.

It was only four or five face-to-face efforts, and the four enemies were already one dead and one wounded. Of course, part of the reason for this is that although these four people are also guards, they don't cooperate very well with each other. They are better at fighting alone, so they lack tacit understanding with each other. For ordinary opponents, this is not a particularly big problem. Even if there is no cooperation, it is easy to deal with more than ten opponents with four people. But against a particularly strong enemy like Ashrufat, cooperation has become their big loophole.

Now, even fools can see which side is stronger and which is weaker. The four of them joined forces, and they were beaten into one dead and one wounded, and only two were left intact. The injured one was also in a worse condition, having one of his arms cut off by Ashrufat, and now he was completely incapacitated. If he can't bandage it in time to stop the bleeding, the injury can even be fatal.

The remaining two bodyguards stood together, sword wielding and confronting Ashrufat. But they have lost the courage to attack and have switched to a defensive posture.

"For what...... Why can't so many of us beat him?" shouted the guard, who had lost his arm, in a fit of rage.

"That's because, of course...... I'm strong!" Ashruphat chuckled, shaking a few drops of blood off the Raven's sword.

"Stop!" came the angry shout of little Byron not far away. Ashrufat turned his head and looked at the sound, and couldn't help but chuckle in his heart. Oops, he actually ignored little Byron just now.

As soon as the battle began, little Byron retreated to the rear. But just as Ashrufat was fighting with the four guards, little Byron surrounded him from the outside, and took advantage of the little girl's unpreparedness to catch the little girl.

Although little Byron knew at a glance that Lu Dao was not a person who had been rigorously trained, he was also an adult man anyway, and he also had a sword in his hand. Dealing with Ashrufat is naturally sending him to death, but it is enough to deal with the little girl.

Now, little Byron had grabbed the little girl in his hands and pulled her back collar tightly, no matter how much she struggled, it was useless. Although he didn't rest his sword on the little girl's neck, he was absolutely sure that he would hurt the little girl before Eshurufat rushed over.

"Put the sword down!" said little Byron, looking at Ashrufat. He didn't say anything further threatening, but the fool knew what he would do. Although he may not dare to make a move, Ashrufat can't ignore the little girl's situation. In fact, what he did just now was right, the little girl also had enough time and distance to avoid little Byron. But the little girl watched the battle with all her attention, ignoring the situation around her, so that little Byron seized this opportunity.

"Lay it down!" Byron drank again.

The distance between the two sides was too far, and there were those two guards in between. Although Ashrufat is much stronger than the other party, it is impossible to ignore the existence of the other party. If he wants to rescue the little girl, then he must gamble, bet that little Byron will not dare to hurt the little girl. But he couldn't gamble on that risk.

Eshurufat straightened up and tossed the crow sword in his hand aside.

Byron Jr. had thought that he could see the reluctance and anger on Ashrufat's face, but he saw nothing. Not only that, but he also felt a strange feeling, this man, this queen's bodyguard, exuded a sense of danger from nowhere. This is very strange, because he didn't feel this way when the other party held the sword in his hand before, but now he has this feeling when the other party has dropped the weapon.

Little Byron banished distractions from his mind. Either way, just kill this personal guard!

"Kill him!" he shouted at the two men who could still fight, and at the same time raised his sword and pointed it at Ashrufat. In the next moment, he felt a strong tingling in his chest. He subconsciously lowered his head and saw a dagger being stuck in his chest to the end.

Just now, the little girl pulled out the dagger she was carrying, stabbed it between his ribs, and pierced through the heart.

On the other side, two of Byron's little guards had already moved. Without hesitation, they slashed at Ashrufat. They originally thought that this was to kill a person who could not defend themselves, but in the next moment, a light flashed in Ashrufat's hand, and a two-handed long sword appeared in his hand. The energy of the magic that was clearly visible to the naked eye wrapped around the two-handed greatsword, sending out a clear roar as it slashed through the air.

The two-handed long sword made a terrifying arc, directly cutting the two people into four.

"Ah...... Ah......h All of a sudden, his master died, and all three of his associates lay dead on the ground. He had completely lost his fighting spirit and turned around to flee, but Ashrufat had already caught up and slashed him down from behind.

Little Byron had already collapsed to the ground, still with a dagger in his chest, his eyes wide open, and an expression of disbelief.
