Out of the shops, onto the streets of Royo, the empty streets were silent.
Perhaps because of poverty, the night in the city of Royo is never prosperous.
It is often said that the only way to know the richness of a city is to look at its lights at night.
This is also true in the Age of Magic. The vast majority of homes have gone to bed with their lights out, and shops have closed. Except for a few places where there is still laughter and laughter in the lights, most of the areas belong to the goddess of silence.
The night wind blew back into the sky above the city of Royo, and Xiu Yi looked up to the sky for a while, and the starry sky here was incomparably bright. He lowered his head and walked briskly towards the Bemond neighborhood.
If the Silent Isle Hotel is the most prosperous place in the city of Royo, representing the bright, beautiful, affluent, and gorgeous upper class of life, then the Bermond neighborhood is the dark side of the city. It represents poverty, squalor, chaos, barbarism, and is a place where sinners are concentrated.
What is possessed here is the most primitive nature. Desperate for survival. This is the most barbaric and backward society, and violent power is the supreme ruler.
Huey believed that this could be the place where he could shake the peace of Royo.
Walking on the ground covered with sewage, the dim lights flickered in the night, and from time to time there was the cry of a wild cat, and Xiui looked around.
All he saw were numb faces. It was written with a desire for a better life, but it put all its hope in God, not in his own hands.
A little boy snatched the ** bread, ran desperately, and bumped into a big man in rags. The big man slapped him in the face, and snatched the bread from him.
The boy and the girl stared at the loaf of bread in amazement, as it grew smaller and smaller, and finally disappeared to nothing, and did not even have the courage to scold, and sat quietly on the ground again, waiting for the alms of the good Samaritan.
A few street ** were haggling with the men on the side of the road, and finally made a deal with two women for 30 silver vets. They were running errands in the alley next to them, and the man dealt with two ** at the same time, just like putting a straw ** between two bottles of Coke, one would drink this cup, and the other would drink that cup again.
A couple of men walked over. One of them, standing against the wall, shouted, "Do you want to have fun? ”
So, another man joined in.
All this was born in that alley, and Xiu Yi could almost clearly see the unbearable scene, but his face sank like water, and his heart was not wavering.
For everyone in this slum, it's all about living, without explanation.
If Silent Island is paradise, then Belmond is hell.
A little boy ran to Huey's side and pitifully stretched out his hands, it was the same little boy who had just snatched the bread.
Huey threw a Kinwitt to the little boy. The little boy greedily looked at the more glittering money in his hand, bowed after taking the money, and ran back without speaking. By the time Xiui looked at the performance in the alley, the men had become four.
When the first man had finished his business, he took it out and said, "Just 20 silver Wirt." These three guys did it with me, and they were responsible for my part. ”
"You miserly bastard. A ** muttered and scolded.
Huey turned his head to the other side.
He saw a guy who was sloppy, taking the little boy's money and listening to the little boy's story.
The little boy pointed to his side, and the ugly head shook a few times, then stood up and staggered towards Xiui.
Xiui didn't even sigh.
He just stood quietly until the guy was standing in front of him.
He said, "Hey, boy, hand over all the money." ”
"Covetousness is a sin. ”
"I agree. Every one of the people who live in Bemond is a *** sinner. The man said, a knife flashing out of his hand: "You'd better see what I'm holding in my hand." I'm not kidding. I want money, all of it, your money. Do you understand?" the guy's voice was quick, obviously impatient.
"Yes, I understand, but I'm worried that my friends won't agree. ”
"What?" the man didn't understand.
A childlike smile appeared on Huey's face.
He raised his hand and pointed behind the man.
The man looked behind him in astonishment, and a dark shadow swept by like a wind, falling on top of him.
"Ahh
A large number of men came out from all corners, leaving them with just a corpse that had been gnawed and eaten.
"What's the matter?" exclaimed one of the leading men.
"A teenager, a golden teenager, it was he who killed Bill. The boy who had taken the Kim Witt from Hue earlier shouted, "He gave me the money, but Bill wants more!"
"Where is he?"
He went that way. The boy gestured into the distance.
A lonely figure could be seen faintly walking.
"Follow me. The big man led the people to chase after him.
"He's got a terrible big dick!" cried the boy.
In the hazy distance, the boy saw only countless people rushing towards the lonely black shadow.
His eyes widened, and his blurred vision was full of figures jumping and shaking.
Streams of dark red liquid shot out in front of his eyes, and from time to time the terrible screams of people rang out in his ears.
The boy opened his mouth wide and looked in astonishment at the void darkness, and after a few moments, all the shaky shadows stopped shaking.
The image turned a dark red color, and the boy could even see blood flowing towards him.
A figure emerged from the darkness.
It was the golden boy who rewarded him with a Jin Witt.
There was no trace of blood on the black vest, but the terrifying reptilian creature behind him was made of bones, as if it had been fished out of the blood plasma, and its dark red eyes stared at the boy, exuding a strong ** aura.
The boy shuddered.
The golden boy came to the boy's side and stood still.
"What's your name. ”
"Hah...... Hal. ”
"Hello, you know? You're a bad guy by nature. People who don't know how to be grateful are not worthy of sympathy. ”
"Yes......" the boy's teeth chattered.
"I don't kill you because you're young. But I think we should teach you some lessons to remember in the future, to be a human being, to learn to be grateful. This may help you grow. ”
"Ahh
Turning his head, Xiuyi's back disappeared into the darkness step by step......
Silent Island Hotel.
Raschel was spinning high on the dance floor with the girl named Sandy in his arms.
"You're a great dancer. The girl named Sandy had a look of adoration in her eyes. This made Raschel feel satisfied.
"I'm old, I haven't danced this dance for a long time, it belongs to young people. Raschel laughed.
"I don't think you're old at all, in fact your age is the most attractive age. ”
"Yes? I was flattered. ”
"Maybe it's because I always think that the boys are too tender, they don't understand anything, but they think they are. My mom said I had a serious father-love complex. I always like to be around older people, and that makes me feel safe. The little girl chattered. She looked at Raschel and winked, "You are very much like my father." ”
"He must have been a very charitable and peaceful man. ”
"No, he's actually an alcoholic. The little girl covered her mouth and smiled.
Raschel, who had been tricked, could only shake his head helplessly: "Oh, maybe we should rest for a while." We've all skipped three of them. ”
"Okay. The little girl shrugged her shoulders and said indifferently, "But I'll come back to you later." ”
"Spare me this old bone. Raschel laughed.
Back in their place, Chakra and Charlie have returned. Raschel wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked, "Where's that guy Bailey?"
Chakra replied, "The servants of the House of Dardanelles have sent news that he is playing cards with the young master. ”
"Playing cards?" Raschel was a little surprised, "and Sisserdar Daniel?"
"Yes. Chakra affirmed: "They're playing cards." ”
"It's amazing. Raschel shook his head, wondering how he had only danced a few dances and the situation had changed so dramatically.
"Maybe he can help us get more information from Siseddar Daniel. When he was on Purgatory Island, he and Huy Glare were the most familiar. Charlie said.
"If Siser Danielle was really Hue Igler, he would never have played cards with Bailey no matter what he did. Raschel was sure. "Looks like I'm too distracted, go get Bailey out, let's go. There's no need to stay here anymore. ”
"I thought that girl made you reluctant to leave. Chakra said coldly.
Raschel glared at him: "Nothing is more important to me than work. ”
The communication crystal in his arms suddenly trembled.
Raschel took it out.
The face of an official of the Legal Affairs Office appeared on it: "Lord Raschel, I just got the information, and Huy Glerle has appeared. ”
"What?!" all three called out at the same time.
"Hue Igler showed up, and in the Bermond neighborhood he killed at least fourteen people, all local hooligan villains. It seemed as if someone had provoked him, and Huyglare was forced to take action, so he appeared. ”
"Are you sure it's him?"
"At first, I couldn't be sure, because it was just a golden boy in the description. But you know what the Bemond neighborhood is like. The people there are not strong, but they are notoriously fierce and not afraid of death. Huy Glerle poked a leak there, and everyone fought with him, and he almost killed it. It seems that he didn't want people to know who he was at first, so at first he only used a very peculiar puppet. ”
"Puppets?"
"Yes, a puppet we've never heard of before, and since it's night, we can't be sure what it is, but it's powerful and very fast. Later, the night law enforcement team arrived, and there were several fourth-level samurai, and Xiu Yiglaire was forced to use the Blazing Bird, so his identity was revealed. However, we lost two teams of law enforcement and more than 20 people died. ”
"Where is he now?"
"He's walking out of the North District, and it looks like he's planning to leave the city. ”
"Immediately notify the City Lord's Mansion and ask Lord Kevin Beers to dispatch them, and then mobilize the city defense officers and soldiers to order the blockade of the whole city. ”
"This requires a warrant from the Lord of the Castle. ”
"Do as I say first, the lord of the castle is here, and I will ask him to make up the order. ”
"Yes!"
The image on the communication crystal disappears.
Raschel raised his head, "Did you hear that?"
"It's been said a long time ago that we're wasting time here. Chakle said coldly: "Raschel, what are you waiting for?"
Raschel thought for a moment and said, "Chakra, you go and ask for a warrant, and I'll go and say goodbye to that Mr. Sisserdar Daniel, and call Bailey back by the way." ”
Walking quickly to the small parlor, the servant guarding the door was none other than Fan Sin, who had previously received Raschel's twelve Jinvit benefits.
"I have an urgent matter to leave for a while, and I need to say goodbye to your little master. Raschel said.
Fan Xin squinted at the other party, and then replied in an arrogant tone: "The little master is playing cards, and he never sees guests when he is playing cards." ”
"I have to see him. ”
"I'm sorry sir, but I want you to understand that no matter how prominent your status, here you are the guest and my host is the one who counts. I won't let anyone in unless I have his permission. ”
"My people are in there, too. ”
"I can help you call him out. ”
"Okay then. Raschel nodded helplessly.
Fan Sing turned and entered the living room, slamming the door shut, nearly hitting Raschel's head as he poked inside.
After a while, Bailey leisurely walked out of it: "What's the matter, head?"
"How did you end up with Dardanelle?"
"The young master of the Dardanelles likes to play cards, and it just so happens that he lacks a card partner, didn't you say that you should observe him more? ”
"How did it turn out?"
"Won some money. ”
"Damn, that's not what I asked. ”
"That's all there is to it. Bailey spread his hands: "He's not Hue Egler, at least so far, I don't have any more appearances." ”
Raschel nodded: "I just got the news that Huigler appeared in the city. Prepare to come with me, let's go catch that cunning mouse. ”
"It's a shame that I'm going to say hello to the young master of the Dardanelles. Bailey muttered and turned back into the room.
Raschel's heart suddenly moved.
He couldn't figure out how things could be so coincidental, and just when he was suspicious of this young master, Huy Glair suddenly appeared in the city of Royo. And it seems that his way of playing is not clever, and it was caused by a clumsy accident.
Could it be a trap?
Raschel asked himself that he would never underestimate any opponent, especially one who could do something like that on Purgatory Island and dare to challenge the Empire. Hue Igler, who possesses both madness and intelligence, is undoubtedly the toughest opponent he's ever seen.
"Maybe there's a ghost......," Raschel muttered to himself, eager to rush in to see if it was Cethedade Daniel sitting inside, but he also knew that if he rushed in without permission, the consequences would be very serious.
Bailey quickly walked out: "It's a pity that Heather is going to find someone to play cards again." He muttered.
Raschel thought for a moment and said to Bailey, "Maybe you don't have to go over. ”
"Why?" Bailey was a little surprised.
"Listen to me. Raschel leaned into Bailey's ear and whispered, "You now have a new mission, which is to keep an eye on the young master of the Dardanelles. Don't part with Hue Glare until I catch him. Got it?"
Bailey thought for a moment and nodded: "I think I understand, you mean I can continue to go back to playing cards?"
"Yes. ”
"What if I'm **?"
Raschel hated it: "As long as you don't lose too much, I'll be responsible for you." ”
"Thank you. Bailey smirked.
Raschel shoved a communication crystal into Bailey's hand, "Take it, I'll get in touch with you." ”
Not far away, Chaclay had already received a warrant from the city lord to block the whole city and walked over: "Earl Derby Annfleet doesn't want us to make a big fuss, he hopes that before the ball is over, we will either catch Huy Glare or expel him, in short, try not to disturb the atmosphere here." ”
"Looks like there's nothing more important to him than trading materials, right?" Raschel asked, dissatisfied.
"Yes. Chakra nodded: "It's your responsibility to catch Siuigler, not his, and he doesn't want to ruin the big deal he managed to broker because of some chaotic law and order incidents." Remember that everyone here is a big shot, and you may be able to mess with one of them, but you can't afford to mess with the family behind them. You can afford to mess with one family, and you can't afford to mess with everyone and all families. Including me, so you'd better be restrained. ”
"It's good, ***, that we're doing our best to hunt down the Empire's culprits, and they're not allowing us to disturb their spirits. Raschel angrily walked out the door: "Maybe I should really force Huyglaire to the Grand Hotel, and use his hand to slaughter everyone here, and then catch him, so that those idiots and idiot families will thank me in turn, instead of being angry that I have made things too big." ”
"That's why you have the ability but you can't always get promoted, your temper is so bad, Raschel. Chakra replied after him.
"You're right, Chakra. "Tell the City Defense Department to lock down the whole city, but don't sound the alarm, and keep the operation in secret, as if you were touching their lover!" ”
Watching them leave from afar, Bailey looked back at Lilith behind him: "You don't need to be so nervous, we are already in the same boat." ”
Lilith glared at him, then took out the communication crystal and said, "Be careful, Xiui, they're coming, and the Sky Warriors have already been dispatched." ”
"It's been a long time coming. From the other end came Xiu's indifferent voice.
Putting down the communication crystal, Xiui looked behind him.
On another street in Royo, the battle has come to an end.
The Undead* Rats easily took out the members of the third night law enforcement team, and the entire street had turned into a sea of blood.
The corpses were lying crooked in all corners, their deaths horrific, and some of them were reduced to fragments of flesh.
Even if it becomes an undead puppet, this *rat still does not change its **murderous instinct in life, it likes to tear all flesh and blood with its sharp joints, turning them into a meaningless mass of flesh and blood.
Invisible soul energy escaped from the dead and then entered the Soul Eater Ring, and Xiu Yi could feel the Soul Eater's greed and thirst for soul energy.
"Don't be in a hurry. Xiu Yi muttered and stroked the magic ring in his hand, "Tonight, you can have a full meal." ”
Xiui glanced coldly at the disgusting scene, and started to walk farther away, his steps still steady, not hurried or slow.
Ever since stepping out of the Soul Eater Ring, Xiui knew she had changed.
He became more determined and became more **.
Tonight, the city of Royo is destined to have no sleep.
