292. Battlefield
Hola and Peloris were sitting on soft velvet cushions, while the Boss of Spades was sitting across from them.
Not only can the spacious carriage accommodate two rows of sofas, but there is also a wooden table between the sofas, and such a spacious carriage should be able to smuggle a lot of resources, but it was used by the Boss of Spades for his own enjoyment.
The Boss of Spades poured himself a glass of whiskey:
"Do you drink?"
The girls shook their heads in unison.
The Boss of Spades took a sip of whiskey:
"In addition to the pursuit of money and status, people must also retain some spiritual enjoyment, if they get wealth, but do not know how to enjoy, they will only waste everything they have. ”
Peloris doesn't know if he's really thinking that or if he's lying, but it doesn't matter:
"Why were you able to leave the poker kingdom so openly? ”
The Boss of Spades raised his eyebrows and said:
"Because there are people above me, why do you think the queen can always give food to everyone, because she has sent people out to collect supplies, and I just tried to get them to add a few more carriages, in fact, the guards outside the door also know that the number of carriages is wrong, but they will turn a blind eye.
"This is because our power is strong enough that it spreads throughout the kingdom so that no one can stop us. ”
Hara asked:
"Then why would someone suddenly want to deal with you? ”
Spade boss says:
"This involves some personal matters of mine, anyway, you just need to get out of here, there is no need to know about these useless things.
"In fact, if it weren't for this, even if I were caught smuggling things out of town, the most I would have said was to say hello. ”
Peloris asked:
"If someone stops us later. ”
Spade boss says:
"If they're here for me, let me talk to them first, but if the situation isn't good, Miss Peloris and I need to do it together, Miss Hola can protect herself, right?"
Hola says:
"I can do it too. ”
Spade boss says:
"If it is a last resort, of course you can do it, but if we can solve the situation, it is better for you to pay attention to safety, if you fall into the hands of the enemy, our situation will become very passive. ”
Peloris patted Hola on the shoulder and said confidently:
"Don't worry, I'm not very smart, but at least I haven't lost a fight. ”
Spade boss says:
"Yes, Miss Hola you may not have seen it, but this friend of yours is a humanoid beast when he moves his hands. ”
Peloris says:
"If it's true that I'm entangled by then, you can go to the back and take the three of them to escape first, and I'll be fine. ”
Spade boss says:
"But I have to say more, our enemies are cold-blooded and ruthless, and everyone here will be beheaded off on the spot, except for Hora who can survive by virtue of her identity.
"Pelores, don't relax, they're a bunch of irrational killing machines, don't be as timid as you were when you were on the exchange.
"You're going to kill them. ”
Peloris didn't speak, and in her eyes, killing people was a serious matter.
Although she has been fighting all kinds of powerful beasts and monsters since she was a child, she has never killed a human.
Thinking of this, Peloris glanced at the side of Hola's face, and she still looked calm.
In fact, since the end of the negotiation that day, everyone has many questions in their hearts, such as what exactly did Hola show the Boss of Spades, why did the Boss of Spades change his attitude all of a sudden, and even did not hesitate to expose his lies.
Even if they didn't question Hara, they weren't stupid, and they would have wondered why she knew so much.
And after waiting for a long time, they will start to wonder if there is still something that Hola has not said, and in the end, they will even directly speculate on her maliciously.
It's not that they're bad people, it's just an idea fueled by the sheer instinctive fear of the unknown and danger.
Of course, if during this time, if Hora can give a plausible reason, this speculation will disappear, and Hola only needs to say a few nice promises, which can even make them feel dependent on her.
But now the problem is that although Hola is very gentle and understanding, once it is about her father Herwin, she is like a different person, and Peloris asked her about it yesterday, but she does not answer.
Peloris knew that after leaving here, she would have to find a reason to help Hara explain.
The carriage stopped.
The Boss of Spades Says:
"It's time to get to the city gates. ”
A moment later, there was a knock on the side door of the carriage.
The Boss of Spades opened the door.
Standing outside is a guard who can see a spade through his neck:
"Dangerous. ”
With that, the spade guard turned around and left.
The Boss of Spades looked at Peloris and said:
"Be prepared. ”
Peloris says:
"Dangerous?"
The Boss of Spades pulls out a large-caliber pistol from his waist:
"He's my guy, it looks like she's not taking it anymore, I thought she'd let us trade it twice. ”
If it weren't for Inge, Fanny, and Antotica who might not have been able to get rid of the clown's disease, they could have waited a while.
But if they want to leave the poker kingdom for a short time, there is only one way, and after weighing the pros and cons, they still made this decision together.
The carriage moved again.
The Boss of Spades closed his eyes.
After waiting for the carriage to go for half a minute, he opened his eyes again:
"We've been held hostage. ”
Bang!
A gunshot rang out.
The Boss of Spades and Peloris wear the Crying Face Mask, which is similar to the Smiley Face Mask that Hora had seen at the Exchange, except that the eyes and mouth arc are facing in opposite directions.
The Boss of Spades jumped out of the carriage with a gun in one hand and a knife in the other, and the rest of the carriages belonging to the Boss of Spades also jumped off a dozen people after the gunshot.
At the same time, another group of people with swords and guns poured out, all of them with strange smiles on their faces.
Some of these men had just followed at the city gates, and many were hiding in other carriages, and they were dozens of times more numerous than the Boss of Spades.
The dark shadow grows behind the Boss of Spades, and it also holds the same weapon as the Boss of Spades, except that the large-caliber pistol in the hands of the Boss of Spades becomes a shadow cannon in the hands of the Shadows.
Bang!
The Boss of Spades shoots.
A bullet shattered the head of an enemy.
A negative energy cannonball consumes six enemies.
But the enemy is still pouring out, and they are not afraid of death.
Shells and bullets weaved through the battlefield, and corpses lay on the ground.
Peloris stared blankly at the battlefield in front of her, not knowing that blood was splattered on her body.
Until a bullet flew towards her emerald pupils.
She slowly closed her eyes.
The metal warhead and the emerald green scales collided and burst into fierce sparks.
