Listening to the words of the leader of the guards, Tails's heart trembled.

What the?

Place...... Execute?

How could it be.

Rumbatian ......

"No, as it was said above," the herald shook his head, and he pointed at Tails, his expression solemn and his eyes deep, "Leave only the boy." ”

"Kill the others. ”

Several people in the cell heard this.

They looked at each other in unison, and saw the shock in each other's eyes.

Cohen's mouth opened wide in an "O" shape.

Miranda frowned, distraught.

The little slippery head poked Tails in horror, and the latter suppressed the panic in his heart, and while pretending to be calm, he motioned for her to be calm.

Judging by the expression of the leader of the guards, he didn't seem to believe it either.

The leader held the scroll in his hand to the point where the lamp could shine, and looked back and forth several times.

As he moved, the nerves of Tails and the others tensed, and they unconsciously retreated, farther away from the cell door and fence.

"All right," the leader of the guard sighed at last, and he turned his head to look at his five subordinates, who were also surprised:

"You have heard his words. ”

Tails' heart pounded.

No.

How can it be?

I only heard the guard nod slightly and said softly, "Let's do it." ”

The five guards were slightly stunned, but the instinct to obey orders moved them.

They turned, held down the sword at their waists, took out the key, and opened the four cells in which the prisoners were trapped.

For a moment, only the sound of unlocking remained in the cell.

"Damn!" Cohen gritted his teeth, struggling and cursing as he watched the soldier unlock his cell door.

Miranda, on the other hand, kept her face tense and motionless.

Wyay leaned against the fence in horror and glared at Tails.

"Wait!" Tails watched the guard in front of him turn the lock, watching the little slippery head shrink into the corner in horror, his brain in chaos: "My affair with Rumba is not over yet!"

He stared at the herald, then at the leader who was guarding him, "Go tell him if he still wants to know the secret of the Shadow Shield......

However, the leader of the guards simply shook his head with a blank face.

"It's too late, little ghost," he looked at Tails with pity in his eyes, "but at least you'll survive." ”

Tails watched as the five guards pressed their swords on their waists and slowly unlocked the four cell doors, his mind blank.

He watched as Cohen struggled desperately, trying to break free from his chains.

He watched as Miranda curled her knees with a resolute expression, clearly intent on making a last-ditch effort as the guards entered.

And Waiya still looked at Tails deadly: "Your Highness, you ......"

The little slippery head behind him shook his head in horror.

At that moment, Tails bit his lower lip tightly, and his brain spun wildly.

What to do.

Do you want to bite your lip or tongue, with that kind of force?

But as per previous experience, one more time...... It should be my time of death.

What to do.

Tails shuddered as he looked at the swords at the guards' waists.

Damn it.

What to do?

At this moment, an abrupt word interrupted the work of the guards.

"Wait a minute. ”

The sound of unlocking stopped at the same time.

The guards turned their heads strangely.

For a moment, all that remained in the cell was Cohen's heavy gasps.

Tails was slightly stunned.

Then he looked up at the man who had spoken.

Unexpectedly, the person who interrupted the guards' movements was the tall leader of the guards.

It's just that......

Tails narrowed his eyes.

Why, why did he stop it?

"Everyone, stop what you are doing at once, turn around and face me," I saw that the leader's face was cold, he held the sword at his waist, and said in a rough voice: "Armed and guarded." ”

In the narrow corridor, five guards stood at the doorways of the four cells, looking at the leader and herald in the middle of them.

The five guards looked at each other, but they did as their superiors had said, turning around and holding their weapons on their waists vigilantly.

Tails looked at everything in the field in amazement, and his heart was even more suspicious.

This is......

"What's wrong?" Seeing the guards' movements, the herald frowned, "Why did you stop?"

The leader of the guard looked up at the herald.

After a second, he said lightly: "I just remembered something. ”

The herald was slightly stunned.

He glanced around at the people, and then said impatiently to the chief, "This is the order of the Grand Duke, whatever you think of......"

But the Guardian interrupted him directly.

"I know a veteran from Qiyuan City," the leader said coldly, "He once served on the border near the Great Desert. ”

The sentence without a beginning or end made everyone else in the cell slightly stunned.

"So what?" the herald seemed puzzled, and he glanced at the others again, and saw confusion in their eyes as well.

The leader of the guard snorted.

"He's told me a lot of things, like the orcs, and the bonemen," he said, tilting his chin slightly, squinting at the heralds, "the tribes that paint colorful tattoos in the depths of the desert, the savages who are hostile to our civilized world, are more difficult to deal with than the orcs." ”

The herald frowned slightly.

"The soldiers of the border, as they are generally called," the chief's eyes became more and more fierce: "Wasteland." ”

Tails gasped slightly, trying to take advantage of this short period of time to think of a way to save the others.

But his mind was in a mess.

Cohen next door stopped struggling, and the vigilante looked up with all his might, looking at the two men talking in amazement.

"Hey, buddy," the herald's face deepened, and he pointed to the scroll in the chief's hand, "If you want to tell a story, you'd better wait until you have carried out the Grand Duke's orders......"

"He told me too!" the leader interrupted him with a cold face.

"Although there are different races, most of the wild races have a very unique characteristic," the leader of the guard grinned, his expression fierce, and his words were fierce:

"Their eyes...... It's dark red. ”

"This is the Bone Man, a symbol of their sin in making a deal with the devil. ”

Tails looked at the leader's bizarre performance and couldn't figure out what was going on.

But Miranda's eyes widened, and like Cohen, she stared blankly at the middle of the field.

As if I couldn't believe it.

The herald seemed to have thought of something, and he did not speak again, nor did he urge the other party again.

"So I wonder why in the army under the Grand Duke," the leader of the guard looked at the herald who was silent, coldly drew the sword at his waist, gritted his teeth and whispered:

"Will there be a barren bone?"

Tails froze for a moment.

Uncultivated...... The Bonesman?

Miranda was stunned.

Cohen also froze on the ground.

Listening to the inexplicable conversation, Tails's heart moved.

Don't......

The guards looked at each other, not knowing why.

But at the leader's signal, they all became vigilant, and faintly surrounded the strange herald, and the blade of the sword slowly unsheathed.

The next second, the herald sighed and explained to the leader, "Because I don't have enough time. ”

The leader of the guards frowned, "What?"

The herald shook his head, as if annoyed, and sighed, "It's time for some wind." ”

I don't know what to say, which made the heart of the guard leader burn with anger, only to see him gritted his teeth and his face was fierce: "......Who are you?"

Right now.

A slightly stronger cold wind blew outside the cell!

"Whew-" Cold air poured in through the crack in the door, making a piercing screech.

The wind even drowned out the voices in the cell.

It was also at the same moment, before the blades of the five guards were fully unsheathed, that the inextinguishable lamp in the cell suddenly trembled slightly.

Tails' eyes flickered, and in the blink of an eye, the herald suddenly spun around, already with his sword in hand.

Immediately, a shocking sword light that Tails had ever seen in his life, the brightest, the most swift, the most silent, but also the most moving......

Like a thunderbolt piercing the dark sky......

Shine from the herald's left hand!

"Whew-"

The wind was howling, piercing and terrible, and figures flickering.

As the herald swirled, the three guards closest to him shot blood from their necks at the same time!

The nervous leader of the guard roared, his sword unsheathed.

He opened his mouth and roared at something, but his words were drowned out in the wind with the sound of the blade unsheathed.

A quarter of a second later, the herald's grim face turned around.

The long sword in his left hand had turned into a flash of light in the air.

He eventually sank into the chest of the guard furthest from him.

In the next moment, the herald had already rushed in front of the leader of the guards.

The stunned leader of the guards did not panic, he calmly raised his long sword with steady steps, and slashed at the unknown invader with amazing momentum!

The power of the end erupts from the leader's body.

The sword is smooth and powerful, precise and skillful, and there is no intruder with a blade in hand, only a way to dodge.

But the intruder did something that shocked Tails.

I saw that he did not retreat, raised his right hand, and blocked it vertically in front of the long sword.

It's as if you want to hold up the opponent's slash with the palm of your hand!

In the endless whistling wind, Miranda let out an exclamation that no one heard.

With one breath, the leader's sword slashed into the intruder's palm, starting from the middle finger.

The blade of the sword broke into the bone, slashing into his wrist and forearm.

Like chopping wood, brutally split the intruder's inconsiderate little arm alive!

The blade of the guardian leader's sword finally stopped in the middle of the intruder's forearm.

The leader's expression changed suddenly: his blade could no longer be cut.

And even stranger, the intruder, whose forearm was split, did not shout and moan, as if it were not his hand.

The intruder simply held up his forearm that was stuck in the blade and turned it slightly.

In an instant, in the wind that covered everything, the long sword of the guard leader broke from the intruder's forearm.

At that moment, the blade of steel seemed to be countless times more fragile than the leaves of a dried tree.

The leader held his broken sword in a daze.

With his stunned expression, the intruder swung his right arm, which had been split in half, and his fingers miraculously moved.

In a flash of lightning, he grabbed the fallen broken blade, and then gently flung out his right hand.

The Broken Blade flew three paces away with his movements, sinking into the throat of the last guard—his sword had barely drawn two-thirds of the way out.

In the next second, the intruder swung his left fist, a mediocre uppercut, and slammed into the stomach of the guard leader.

In the harsh wind, a huge force surged.

The leader of the guards looked shocked and lifted his legs off the ground.

His body bent under this punch, and was lifted up by the intruder, and the whole person turned into a curved "A" shape in midair.

The wind faded into silence.

The other five guards stared at each other in disbelief, clutching their throats or clutching their chests, and fell to the ground one after another.

The leader's broken sword slipped feebly from his hand.

Just as the broken sword was about to hit the ground, the intruder hooked his right foot, kicked it up, and grabbed it in his right hand.

Silence.

Only then did Tails notice that the intruder's right hand, which should have been split, was now intact.

Not even a drop of blood came out.

Only the sleeve that was split in half told the incredible scene just now.

Tails' eyes widened as he looked at his sleek and delicate right hand, and he suddenly felt creepy.

"You ......" the leader of the guards glared, his arm twitching in sharp pain, blood pouring from his mouth.

"I just said that," the intruder said coldly, still holding his left fist high and holding the leader of the guard in the air, "because there is not enough time." ”

In the next second, the leader of the guards closed his eyes and lowered his arm, which was no longer moving.

The intruder leaned down slightly, slowly lowering the leader's corpse and placing the broken sword on the corpse.

He straightened up, tore off the wig and the disguise of his face, revealing his original brown hair, and said coldly to the corpse, "So it's too late to disguise my eyes." ”

The piercing wind has completely subsided at this point.

Silence returned to the cell, as if nothing had just happened.

Except for the slowly expanding pool of blood on the ground, and the six corpses that had just been added.

Tails looked in shock at the guards who had fallen around him, his heart pounding.

This is......

Cohen and Miranda looked at each other in surprise.

"It's impossible to ......" this is Cohen, who is almost sluggish and shakes his head desperately.

Waiya's jaw almost dropped to the ground.

The intruder, who had killed six people in a row in uncanny means, turned around lightly and walked towards Tails.

The gaze is cold.

Tails subconsciously shrank back, holding his shivering little slippery head behind him—he wouldn't forget the order the stranger had just brought.

Looking at the prince's expression, the young intruder's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was looking at it attentively.

The prince struggled to adjust his breathing, and in his nervousness he could see the intruder's face.

The stranger was very young, but in his twenties, but he had a handsome face with a unique outline.

It's unforgettable at first sight.

He was familiar...... Who exactly?

Tails' question was quickly answered.

"Your Highness Tails, this is the first time you meet. ”

The terrible intruder knelt down on one knee in front of Tails through the fence, with a subtle expression that seemed to be a smile but not a smile, put his right fist against his heart, and bowed and saluted:

"Raphael Lindbergh. ”

Tails looked at the man in a daze, a little unresponsive.

Although the other party's actions were respectful, Tails couldn't feel even a trace of respect in his tone.

The intruder slowly raised his head, blocking the six corpses behind him.

The corners of his mouth curled slightly, revealing a pair of rare and strange dark red eyes:

"From the Kingdom Secret Branch. ”
