Chapter Forty-Seven: Fighting for Themselves

With a snort, Blaze spun around and took on a roundhouse kick.

The Ten Guards leaped backwards to dodge Agni's roundhouse kick, which took advantage of the gap to widen the distance.

"It's just that I can't escape it. ”

The body of the ten guards was still floating in the air but pressed the center of gravity downward, and under the action of the two forces, the ten guards dug their legs into the mud, drawing two marks in the mud. But this is not over, Jian Shibei quickly put the sword in his hand back into the sheath, and the whole person showed a posture of being ready to attack.

Agni knew something was wrong when she saw this posture, and she knew a martial art that used this kind of movement as a prelude, known as the martial art of the Ming Mysterious Sword.

"!"

With the shouts of the ten guards, the spirit knife - the boy Che Angang was liberated from the scabbard at an incredible speed, which can no longer be called drawing the sword, and at the moment when the blade was unsheathed, hundreds of silver flashes burst out of it, just like the name of a hundred thousand ghosts out of trouble.

The sword light came in an instant, and the flames, which were not too far away, had no time to escape, so the flames held the two daggers in their hands backwards, used the small daggers as shields, and then did not retreat but advanced, and took the initiative to jump into the torrent of sword light.

Hundreds of silver flashes were like a storm of killing, and everything that stood in the way, including mud and rocks and houses, was ruthlessly smashed, and soon a fan-shaped piece of broken ruins was cleared out of the already dilapidated slum, and the ground was full of devastation and severed limbs.

This time the movement was so great that the residents of the abandoned houses who had not been caught up in the attack looked out of the houses, and after seeing the ruins like a natural disaster and the sword-wielding Jijubei guards, they all let out a scream and fled like frightened ants.

The guards didn't bother to glance at the fleeing residents, and they didn't even look at the results of their own attacks before turning their heads without hesitation.

Agni, who had a wound on his left abdomen, left shoulder, and right leg that looked like a serious wound, crouched there with his back towards the ten guards.

"Narujin's strongest Iai Slash isn't that useful, is it. ”

Even if he couldn't see the expression of the fire, the ten guards could probably guess the sarcastic smile on the face of the deadly woman.

"No, it's actually very easy to use, and it's a contribution anyway. ”

The guard raised an eyebrow and touched the wound on his cheek with his thumb, which was caused by the dagger thrown by the flames.

"I should say this, right, three serious injuries for one abrasion, your martial arts skills are not so useful, right?"

"Nope. ”

Agni slowly stood up.

"It's unexpectedly easy to use, maybe the opponent is too easy to deal with, right?"

With that, Agni tossed a broken dagger with his right hand, and threw it twice at the Ten Soldiers, this attitude of attacking even though it knew it wouldn't work was a provocation.

"After all, I've accomplished my goal. ”

Because the last dagger was also used as a long-range weapon, the right hand that was free of fire held the handle of the sword, and pulled out the spirit knife that once belonged to the teacher in one breath.

Ji Shibei looked at the knife and turned to face his own fire, his eyes flickered towards his waist, and sure enough, there was only one knife left on his waist.

"I see, your goal has been this from the beginning, and you are worthy of being a disciple of the Jinjiu Lang Teacher. ”

There was no sarcasm in the admiration of the ten guards, it was a genuine compliment. In order to snatch the knife back from his hand, he even did not hesitate to face his own martial arts chaotic, and this decisive judgment was really admirable.

"The only weapons that can fight with the spirit knife are weapons of the same grade, and I didn't plan to fight you with those two daggers in the first place. ”

Agni dragged the knife diagonally to his side, and the upper part of his body was indeed heavy, even if it was not to the point where it could make people lose mobility, and he needed to refrain from using those moves that were too burdensome on his body.

"And the Three Days Moon Sect was originally a teacher's thing, how could it be simply handed over to a suspicious outsider. ”

Agni prefers the assassin's fighting style to the swordsmanship taught by Jinkuro, as she prefers to fight with a focus on efficiency and precision. And Narujinliu's swordsmanship is closer to martial arts, too positive.

This does not mean that Agni's swordsmanship is weak, but Agni's swordsmanship is very strong, although it is not as exaggerated as the talent of the Ten Soldiers, but it is not much worse, and because of this, it can be called one of the strongest in Khiva.

"Now is when the real battle begins. ”

――――[Dividing Line]――――

Albert Einstein stood on the eaves and looked down, and the streets below were dead silent.

Just now, Lucia's breath disappeared, although he didn't think that anyone could harm the master, but Einstein still left Jonathan to watch the house as soon as possible, and hurried to the place where the master's breath disappeared.

It's a pity that all that's left here is the street that looks problematic at first glance, and there is no sign of a fight, but neither the owner nor Sophia is nowhere to be seen.

Einstein glanced into the distance, and the woman named Agni could be found, but it didn't seem to be of much use, besides, Einstein believed in himself more than a weak human woman.

"Come out, you're there. ”

To this empty corner, Einstein suddenly spoke.

The shadows in the corners shook like the surface of the water, and corpse-like weirdos emerged from inside.

The strange man wriggled and made a hoarse sound.

"Why do we know we're here, how did we expose it. ”

"No, you're well hidden, formless, soundless, not even breathy, but the streets around here are clearly touched. ”

What a stupid question. The corners of Einstein's mouth turned into a mocking arc.

"It's a special way to cover up this block, but it's not mortal magic, it's more like a demonic spell, and the smell of sulfur is too strong. ”

As Einstein spoke, he turned into a black shadow and in the blink of an eye he was in front of the strange man.

"And I made an assumption that there was something in the city that was secretly controlling the whole city, so that a lot of incongruities would be clear. Unfortunately, I seem to have guessed correctly. ”

As he spoke, a smiling Einstein knife slashed the stranger's throat with lightning and fire, the musculature and bones were destroyed like tofu, and the stranger's head fell to the ground, his expression fixed before he was killed.

"Then the question is, what are you? Why do you use demonic spells but don't smell of demons? ”

Einstein didn't think that he could kill this strange man in this way, otherwise this man would not have the ability to control the royal capital.

"It's just a little atonement, the sin you dare to pay attention to my Lord. Now, answer my question. ”

The shadows of the surrounding buildings began to writhele, and strange figures like corpses kept emerging from the shadows, among them men and women, old and young, fat and thin, the only thing that was the same was the black tattered clothes and the masks on their faces.

The strange man seemed to have no feeling at all about the death of his companion, and answered Einstein's questions one by one.

"We are the Guardians. ”

"We are the king's servants. ”

"We are the eyes of the city. ”

"We are the hands of the city. ”

"We are the shadow of the city. ”

"It seems that you are not going to be honest, but it doesn't matter, I don't care that much. ”

Einstein calmly looked at the more and more strange people around him, and Einstein was not affected by this strange scene at all.

"I'll ask you just one question, where is my master, and depending on your answer, I'll decide whether you can live or die. ”

The weirdos ignored Einstein's threats and said one by one.

"The monster maiden and the princess are together. ”

"We will not allow you to interfere. ”

"Otherwise, I'll kill you. ”

"We mean what we say, and we absolutely do it. ”

"Hehe, kill me? Hehehaha!"

Einstein's smile became hideous, and his face was still the handsome face of the protagonist of the idol drama, but he always felt as if there was something in the mask that was about to be exposed.

"But it's strange, why are you doing it to that human princess now, it's not logical...... Never mind. ”

Black smoke wafted from Einstein's body, making Einstein look like the final boss of the game, full of evil atmosphere.

"The important thing now is to pry open your rotten and sticky mouth, and then everything will be clear. ”
