Chapter 18: The Scapegoat II
Chapter 18: The Scapegoat II
The samurai named Bicomb and the other samurai stood guard outside the study, waiting for the call of the Minister of Law.
According to Master Neppelton, he would try to deal with the boy as peacefully and simply as possible, and their task was to make sure that the boy from the North Continent didn't go berserk at the end.
It was quiet in the study until the thud.
The samurai looked at each other, and they weren't sure what it was, it sounded like someone had hit something heavy.
Maybe it's the blonde kid.
"Looks like the matter has been settled, and the adults took that kid down?" said one of the samurai, a little confused.
"It seems that the fall is not light. Another samurai whispered.
"Shut up. The warrior named Bicomb glared at the few who spoke.
For some reason, he felt something was wrong.
There were still some voices faintly coming from the study, the moans of people, low, painful, with the slightest pleading, but there was no smug laughter.
A chill suddenly rose in Bicombe's heart.
He knew very well what kind of man Neppleton was, torturing his opponents in silence, not his style, but the way the legendary teenager did.
The thought made his hair stand on end.
He was about to push the door open when it opened.
A man covered in blood fell to the ground, unable to see his face clearly, but the noble robe spoke volumes about his identity.
"Lord Nepleton!" Becombe shouted.
Neppelton, who was on the ground, slowly raised his head, and Bicomb was shocked to find that one of the adult's eyes had been gouged out, and his face was covered with blood, and his image was hideous and terrifying. The adult's mouth squirmed, and he made a difficult cry for help: "Help...... I ......"
Several samurai rushed over, and at that moment, Bicomb sensed an endless danger from the shadows.
He shouted, "Be careful!"
Suddenly, Neppelton's body shone brightly, and a terrifying energy shockwave suddenly exploded, surging all around. Several samurai in front bore the brunt of the attack and died on the spot under the huge wave of impact. Surprisingly, the Marquis of Neppleton himself, who was the core of the attack, was not injured in the slightest.
Several of the samurai, who had passed a little late, survived, and they glanced at each other with shocked expressions on their faces.
That terrible boy, without even showing his face, had already killed several of them.
However, their duties as samurai did not allow them to abandon Nepleton. A samurai rushed to Neppleton's side again, this time, Neppleton's body did not release the terrifying attack energy, he was about to reach out to help Neppleton, a black shadow burst out of the room, it was Xiu Yi, the tip of the sword shook out a frosty snow-like light, like a spirit snake in the dark night, stabbed into the samurai's throat.
The warrior let out a painful roar as he clutched his throat, and a fountain of blood spurted from his neck.
The other warrior was startled and swung his sword at the attacker, and with a flick of his hand, an invisible soul shockwave had already entered his mind. He clutched his head and screamed in pain. The next moment, the sword was withdrawn and slashed neatly across his neck, and both warriors fell to the ground at the same time.
Bicombe raised his hand and punched out, and the huge punch smashed like a whistling mountain wind, but Huey picked up Neppelton's body with his foot, and blocked it in front of him, Bicombe was taken aback, and retracted his fist forcefully, and the blow was useless.
Shuy casually unleashed another spell that knocked back another warrior who tried to attack him, and Neppelton's body was unsupported and fell heavily to the ground.
The fight took place in a flash of lightning, and ended in an instant, and in just a few seconds, Xiui had already killed several samurai in a row, blocking one of Bicombe's attacks.
All the samurai were so frightened by Xiu Yi's skills that they didn't dare to step forward for a while.
Xiu Yi stood at the door of the study, his eyes cold and ironic under his long blond hair. He spat out a few words: "I'm sorry, your adults have let you down." ”
The sudden movement finally alarmed the Neppleton family warriors on the periphery, and dozens of warriors appeared one after another, surrounding the entire courtyard.
Bicomb calmed down: "Huy Igler, let go of my family, we'll let you go." ”
"Oh?" Huey's eyebrows furrowed, a disdainful smile twitching at the corners of his mouth.
He lifted his foot and stomped heavily on Neppelton's face: "I'm sorry, I'm not very uncommon in this condition. ”
"You!" Bicomb was so angry that he vomited blood: "Huygliel, you'd better know who you're fighting against, you may be able to make waves in your country, but this is the Southern Continent, the territory of the Sierra Empire!"
"So you've heard my name, and you know why Neppelton is dealing with me?" Huey was curious.
Bicomb was stunned, he didn't know why Huey said this, but he had a faint bad feeling in his heart.
Sure enough, Xiuyi's smile became more and more vigorous: "Since you know who I am, what's the use of me, then...... I have nothing to worry about. How dare you do something that even your adults dare not do?"
"What did you say?"
"Don't play stupid, you don't dare kill me......! I dare to kill you!"
Bicombe's heart sank, and he was about to speak, when a low incantation sounded in the sky, with a gentle echo of the lonely world, as if coming from all directions.
The wind elements converged, surging like the waves of the sea. Xiui pointed to the sky with one hand, and the magic light lit up on his fingertips, and the next moment he pointed at the warriors, and the whistling tornado was generated out of thin air, roaring towards everyone.
"Tornado, that's a level 5 wind spell! Bicomb exclaimed. He didn't have time to figure out how Huey had cast the spell, because after casting it, Huey picked up Nepalton again and kicked him at Bicombe.
Bicomb was forced to reach for Neppelton, but Huey's body flew after Nepleton, and he stabbed Becomb with a sword.
Becombe yelled and was forced to parry with his sword, and Huey smiled, grabbing Nepleton again with his left hand and throwing it into the sky.
With this throw, Bicombe's save was immediately missed.
"Bastard!" Bicomb gritted his teeth in anger at Huey, the kid was clearly teasing himself.
The fighting spirit of his whole body was high, and Bicomb showed his great strength as a high-ranking samurai. A sword stabbed at Xiuyi, but he didn't expect Xiuyi to dodge or dodge, and actually rushed straight towards Bicombe's sword. Bicomb was shocked, remembering that he couldn't kill Xiuyi, so he hurriedly put away his sword, but he didn't want to kill Xiuyi, but Xiuyi wanted to kill him. The sword rippled with brilliance and stabbed Bicomb in the throat.
"Cunning bastard!" Bicombe was so angry that he vomited blood, he suddenly abandoned his sword, and then let Xiui attack him, looking up to the sky and shouting: "Metal armor, King Kong fighting spirit!"
With this shout, Bicombe's whole body suddenly soared, rising a brilliant pillar of light, showing a powerful and incomparable power, his whole body skin actually showed a faint metallic color, and his arms were as golden as gold.
Huey's sword stabbed Bicomb's throat like an iron block, and he couldn't stab it.
"Sky Samurai?" Shue exclaimed.
"That's right!" Becomb shouted and threw a punch down, not at Xiui, but at Xiui's sword, and Xiui felt a strong force coming down the blade and slamming it into his chest, pushing him out of the air.
With a whoop, Xiu Yi spat out a large mouthful of blood, and the magically reinforced long sword actually broke into inch pieces.
Falling back to the ground, Xiuyi's footsteps staggered a few times before he could stand still, and this counterattack made him hurt a lot.
This is not to blame Xiui for being careless, he originally thought that Bicomb was an earth warrior at best, but he didn't expect him to be a sky warrior.
How could a marquis have a Sky Warrior to take care of his home? He couldn't figure it out, but he wasn't interested in thinking about it.
Because he suddenly thought of a very interesting thing, it was this incident that made Xiuyi's eyes shine with excitement, and even the blood stains on the corners of his mouth beat with irrepressible excitement.
He smiled at Bicombe, and suddenly grabbed the poor and hapless Lord Neppelton's body and threw it at the garden, which flew like a cannonball in the air and slammed into the garden.
As Xiu Yi said the incantation, countless vines suddenly rose from the garden, stretching out of the ground and swaying in the wind like countless tentacles. About a dozen tentacles wrapped around Neppleton, tying him like a dumpling.
"That's ......," Bicomb was shocked.
Xiu Yi spread his hands: "Vampire demon vine, a kind of demon plant, can become a human summon after cultivation, the disadvantage is that the seeds must be planted in advance, the advantage is that they can multiply quickly, and ...... They are very deadly. ”
Huey pointed to the vampire vines, one of which had slowly lifted its mouthpiece-sharp stem and aimed it at Neppleton's neck.
Huey's fingers moved slightly, and the stem pierced into the veins in Neppleton's neck, and the blood flowed down the stem, like a cola in a straw, and you could even see the blood flowing all the way through the stem......
"Let go, sir!" shouted Bicombe.
"Don't worry. Huey smiled: "I only arranged for a vampire vine to suck blood, and Neppelton won't be able to die for at least an hour." So, you see...... There is only one way you can save him in the current situation, and that is to defeat me. Remember, you only have one hour to spare. If you lose, or if you kill me, he'll die. So now, use all your strength to bring me down. As for the others, it's better to stay there honestly and don't do anything, or ......"
As soon as Xiui raised his hand, dozens of puppet dolls appeared from the ground, holding knives, and looked at the samurai with a dull expression.
I don't know what these puppet dolls do, but from the hands of Siegler, no one can expect them to be anything easy to deal with.
Looking at those puppet dolls, Bicomb took a long breath: "Everyone stand down!"
