Chapter 719: A Secret Raider

The early summer of the Divine Calendar in 1924 was hotter than in the same period in previous years. The clouds in the sky seemed to be playing hide-and-seek with everyone, and they didn't know where to hide. They haven't shown their faces for nearly a month.

The cicada crawled out of the soil earlier, drinking and singing on the trunks, and its monotonous singing made people feel annoying.

There was no trace of wind in the mountains, and the slightly wilted leaves hung there motionless, looking like a photo.

Slimes, who had lost weight, smelled the smell of blood. They came from all directions and pounced on the human corpse with blood.

Not far away, sweaty Allen sat in the shade of the tree to rest.

The streams in the mountains have already bottomed out. If it weren't for the snow in last winter being bigger than in previous years and the rain in spring, the streams in the mountains would have been completely broken.

Alan under the tree looked a little haggard on his face, looking at the mountains in the distance thinking about something.

When Allen recovered from his injuries on Dogt Head Hill and returned to the Kingdom of Bischberg with Roger, he found something was wrong with the atmosphere around him.

The Adventurer Union still showed great welcome to him, but that was only superficial, and there was no longer the worship of young heroes that he had back then.

Allen found an adventurer rescued from the Warcraft that year. The adventurer with one legless came home from get off work from the Slime rubber bag processing factory and was surprised when he found Allen waiting for him at home.

The one-legged adventurer invited Allen to a meaty supper, and then vaguely told Allen to run quickly.

Alan didn't take this warning seriously at first. When he killed the culprit of the beast tide in Enna City and made a public statement, he suddenly found that various sneak attacks and assassins followed one after another.

These attackers did not entangle with Allen, and quickly escaped if they missed one blow.

Until today, Allen caught an assassin after setting up an ambush with Roger.

It was just that the confession of this assassinator was difficult for Allen to accept.

Roger flew over from the woods, holding a long rattan bar in her hand, the rattan was as thick as a ping-pong ball.

She handed the rattan to Allen and said, "I only found this, let's quench my thirst first."

"Thank you." Allen took the rattan and pulled out the dagger from his waist to cut it off in the middle. Then, with the help of Roger, he raised the rattan and drank the juice flowing from the broken mouth.

The juice of this vine has a plant fragrance and a faint bitterness, which is a toxin it evolved to prevent being eaten by insects.

This toxicity is not worth mentioning to Allen. After replenishing the water, he became a little more energetic.

Roger threw the rattan aside, then landed beside Allen, and said with apologies: "I really can't help this weather. I will introduce Skati to you later. She is the spirit of the Ice Gun. It's the most comfortable thing to have her in such weather."

Allen smiled and said, "It will be winter in a while, and it's best to have you there."

Roger glanced at the corpse of the assassin who was crawling with Slime not far away and asked, "Have you asked who sent him?"

At this time, Allen's face turned cold and he said, "He said he is from Prato City."

Roger asked, "Whose territory is that?"

Allen replied: "It's my sister Linda's territory."

"Huh?" Roger asked in surprise, "Didn't you say that you have a good relationship with your sister? How could she..."

"Can someone frame her?"

Allen had a cold face and did not answer.

Roger said there: "You said your three brothers are competing for the throne with you, will it be them?"

Allen thought for a moment and said, "They must have sent someone, but it's impossible to frame Linda."

Roger asked again: "Can it be the one from the McGarden family?"

"It's him." Allen said.

But before he finished speaking, he immediately reached out to grab Luo Ge on the side, and then jumped out of the distance.

Several bare trunks flew from the top of the mountain behind them, and the wind was still whispering at the ends of the trunk.

When the tree trunk was about to hit the ground, the magic circle above suddenly activated, and countless wind blades instantly swept across the place where Alan and the others were just now.

The surrounding trees, soil and stones were cut by the wind blades, and even the slimes that were eating were split into several pieces.

When the dust settled, Allen jumped out of a pit.

His body was covered with mud, and a hole was cut on his back, revealing a bruise on his back, which quickly disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye.

A red starlight gathered around Alan and then formed Roger.

Several arrows came from the bushes under the trees not far away. Alan waved his sword and knocked one away, and found that the arrow was very powerful and was a crossbow arrow used to capture large monsters.

At this time, several trunks flew towards this side on another mountain.

Several flame arrows flew out from nearby trees and hit the trunks flying from the sky, causing them to explode in the sky.

Seeing this, those who shot crossbow arrows immediately turned around and fled. Alan saw that one of them was chasing him, but ended up crashing into an ambush circle.

Allen accidentally stepped on a mechanism, and heard a burst of noise from the surrounding shrubs. I don’t know how many javelins and stones cut from wood came towards him.

Allen was seen with one hand, with the flame sword and his own sword. The two swords were flying like hummingbirds' wings, knocking down these rough things one by one.

In a moment, the attackers had escaped without a trace.

Soon after, Roger flew over and she said, "These people on the top of the mountain have escaped."

Allen said with a calm face: "Those crossbows are used by the army. This trap is in the style of a bandit. Those flying down from the sky cannot tell where they come from."

Roger thought for a while and said, "That's very much like the style of Neild, but the sisters of "Heart of Wind" and "Water World" were broken more than 300 years ago, and I'm afraid they will never be able to recover."

Then Roger said seriously: "It is not a solution to continue like this. You have to get rid of these troubled enemies."

Allen looked north and said, "Let's go directly to Qiqiu City. I don't believe they dare to attack me in Qiqiu City."

Roger said, "Then let's go, I'll go wherever you go."

In the next few days, Allen set up a suspicion in the mountains and threw away the tracker, and then walked closer to Qiqiu City through the mountain path.

The sky that had been exposed to sunlight for many days finally started to rain. At noon the day when Allen entered the city, lightning and thunder were roaring in the dark clouds in the sky. Soon after, the raindrops as big as soybeans hit the ground "crackling".

The ubiquitous assassination and attack came to an abrupt end when Allen walked into Qiqiu City. The manipulators behind the scenes were not stupid. They played "someone pretended to be His Highness Allen", and then threw the cases of those who did not catch the prisoner and used this as an excuse to assassinate the prince. It was one thing, and running to the capital to assassinate the prince was another thing, that was rebellion.

Alan, who entered the city, did not reveal his identity. He entered the city as an adventurer and walked straight towards the palace.

But he wasn't far away, and a carriage stopped beside him.
