The Devil’s Cage Chapter 17: Pier
As the afterglow disappeared in the evening, the Naviya City, which imposed a curfew, quickly calmed down.
Only patrolled city guards remained on the street.
Different from the past, today's city guards are holding weapons one by one, and both eyes is looking at suspicious characters in the shadows in the corners.
The assassination case of Thorn Temple Priest in the afternoon market has alarmed the senior officials of Naviya City. Those influential figure issued the order that they must catch the murderer within a week.
But the city guard command has no clue.
In the end, this leader can only press the high pressure on the subordinates.
As for the final result?
That is really only known to God.
"Delinker is a wine bag, if it does not rely on the contribution to Thunder Temple, how can it become the leader of the city guards."
When it comes to the leadership of that person, Atelina is full of disdain.
However, when facing the city guards, Atelina is careful enough.
Take Kieran and Mimosa along the path outside the ‘Power Store Stable’ store, bypassing four outposts, and after three patrols, they entered the Naviya City dock area.
After passing through the warehouses, Kieran suddenly looked bright, six straight walled bridges leading to the sea, and a large sailing boat undulated in the waves.
Boom!
The waves are clearly heard in the ears, and the oncoming sea breeze has a special flavor.
"Just in front!"
“I hid ‘Thorns Holy Grail’ in the sea water under a walled bridge. Only the monster breath in the sea can cover up the Intuition of the Priest!”
Atelina said softly.
Kieran nodded recklessly.
After reading "Naviya City Temple Development Discussion" Kieran is very clear, although Naviya City has 25 temples, but the highest temple is "Thunder", there is no common sense in people such as the sun, moon There are no gods like formidable in day, night, ocean, etc.
On the contrary, in the ocean here, there are all kinds of scary monsters.
Every year you need a ‘sea festival’ to appease those monsters and to ensure the smooth flow of routes.
Moreover, most of the native here believe that sea water is magical.
Of course, the bad kind.
In addition to this, there are customs such as not being near the sea at night.
However, because of this custom, the following actions of Kieran have become much easier.
Most of the city guards are patrolling near the warehouse, and no one is near the coast.
And the Unique/only sentry post on the Liutezhai Bridge is also useless.
Mimosa, who was behind Kieran, looked at the deserted sentry, but lit the torch, and couldn’t help wondering.
"A year and a half ago, after the last night watchman disappeared inside, no one dared to serve there."
“Including the night watchman, in less than half a year, ten people have disappeared, even the Priest of ‘Sin Temple’ has nothing to do here.”
Atelina whispered.
It's just that, from beginning to end, I don't look at Mimosa, but at Kieran.
Obviously, this explanation is for Kieran.
As for Mimosa?
In the eyes of the proud temple Deacon, Mimosa is a timid servant, except for cooking, it is useless.
"This lord, you should not bring your servant here."
"He has no use."
Atelina said while walking.
Such remarks shocked Mimosa. He subconsciously grabbed the cloak of Kieran. He was very worried that Kieran would abandon himself.
"It's enough to have cooking skills."
Kieran answered half-truth.
When discovering that Atelina is also just an chess piece, I don’t know why the people behind the scenes are looking for a ‘proprietor’ to start. If Kieran dares to leave Mimosa alone in the hotel, it’s really unwise.
Atelina can find the hotel.
Why isn't that guy good?
Even the opponent has already shot.
Kieran's eyes swept the surrounding shadows without traces, and then glanced at the distant Zhaiqiao Bridge, and moved slightly, blocking Mimosa completely behind him.
Atelina did not find the action of Kieran.
This does not mean that Atelina found no abnormalities.
As I got closer to the Zhaiqiao Bridge, I experienced a baptism. Atelina, who was different from ordinary people, stopped his eyes alertly, and motioned Kieran to retreat.
But at the moment when Atelina stopped, seven or eight figures appeared in the shadows behind them, holding swords one by one, showing their fierce glances.
In the direction of Zhaiqiao, two men dressed as leather armor and mercenary dressed came out.
A pair of swords in one hand, with a sturdy body and a sneering face, the Longsword in the left and right hands brought a piece of cold light between the rotation of the opponent's wrist.
A bare-handed fist, but he is higher than the ordinary person, and the scar on his face makes people breathe when looking at it.
"‘Double Swords’ Seric!"
"‘wild beast’Edson!"
Atelina exclaimed when looking at the appearance of the two men through the faint moonlight.
It's over!
When I saw these two people appear, the temple Deacon was filled with despair.
Both are famous people in Naviya City.
Not only the mercenary, but also in the temple.
Because, after the two men intercepted a Priest of ‘Wealth Temple’ a year ago, it caused a sensation in Naviya City.
Everyone was shocked by their bold behavior.
In the subsequent chase, the two performed exceptionally, escaped three Sin Temple pursuits, and fled straight to the north.
Atelina does not know why the two of them dived back to Naviya City at this time.
Or maybe the two of them didn’t leave Naviya City at all, they just hid somewhere.
But none of this matters.
The most important thing is that she must find a way.
Otherwise, you will really die here!
"Alas."
As Atelina turned his brain to think about how to live, a sigh came suddenly.
It is Kieran.
Kieran shook his head while sighing.
"Be more cautious than you think."
Kieran said this.
Then, walk straight towards the opposite "Double Swords" Seric "wild beast" Edson.
"Wait, they are..."
Atelina opened his mouth to stop.
Just, the words of the temple Deacon stopped abruptly.
The Seric, which claims that the double swords can catch up with the speed of the wind, just brandished the double swords, and the wrists of the hands holding the sword were crushed by Kieran.
Ignoring the slashing of the blade, the Edson that the arrow penetrated was broken by Kieran.
Everything happens in an instant.
The temple Deacon did not even see the whole process clearly.
What she sees is already the result.
The Deacon temple is stunned, thinking stiff.
It wasn't until the sound of sharp metal cutting flesh from behind~IndoMTL.com~The temple Deacon seemed to be awakened, and when she turned back subconsciously, she saw an unforgettable scene for life.
A tough, long and narrow Longsword shuttles back and forth between the shadow and the human body.
Every time the shuttle goes, one person will fall to the ground.
Every shuttle will sound the wailing of the soul.
The long, narrow sword is like a sickle of death, reaping one prey after another.
The people behind them, all of them died in a few breaths.
The long and narrow sword brought a burst of cheers, and Ruyan flew to Kieran.
In the night wind, under the moonlight.
Longsword and Crow Feather Cloak dance with the wind.
The sword light flashes.
Hunting sounds.
