Three o'clock in the morning gradually fell, the bright moon in the sky gradually became covered with a layer of mist, and the earth became dim and hazy.

A brightly armored army set off from the castle and prepared to go to the south gate to guard the soldiers. They took a very strange detour. When they passed by a tavern, nearly ten people sneakily ran out of the tavern.

, sneaked into this army. Every soldier in the army knew that someone had sneaked in, but no one had any reaction. They were as calm as if nothing had happened, allowing the nearly ten people to follow

In the team, follow them towards the south gate of the town.

"Dante!" Jamala asked in a low voice in the team: "Is it really okay to let Feng Xie and Eric act on their own? What if they meet someone from the Blood Wing Society?"

Dante also lowered his voice and said: "Don't worry, it won't happen. Even if Lyman in the Blood Wing Club helps them with advice, he would never expect two people to act on their own, because in his opinion, we are not separated at all.

The reason for the retreat. In fact, the reason why we retreated separately was just because the two of them had other things to do. This 'other thing' factor was difficult for the conspirators to guard against and was completely unpredictable. In addition, I had enough

The reason is that we believe that there are already people from the Blood Wing Club watching the wind in the tavern where we stayed, and they will definitely report our sneaking out. Soon, all the members of the Blood Wing Club in the city will arrive. In this way, Feng Xie and the others will

Although there are no soldiers to protect us, it is much safer than us."

Jamala was startled and said: "If it's as you said, all the members of the Blood Wing Society came here, wouldn't we be in danger? Oh my god, I thought we could sneak out among these soldiers.

It won’t be discovered.”

Dante said: "Give up, it's impossible for us to leave Rodok without anyone noticing. At least if I am a member of the Blood Wing Society, I can guarantee that the person I want to monitor cannot be there without me knowing."

It’s even more impossible to escape, and Lyman’s abilities are a little higher than mine—that’s even more impossible.”

Jamala said: "If that's the case, then why do we still pretend to be sneaky? Isn't this the same as just running out openly? Anyway, they don't dare to attack us openly on the street, and they also want to wait for us

Leave the city first."

Dante shook his head and said: "It's different. When we left secretly, only a few people knew about it. They had to go through a process of informing everyone so that everyone could know. And if you run away openly, half of the people in the city will definitely know it."

Got it. When it's found that it can't be changed, all we have to fight for is time, you know?"

Jamala said: "I just want to know if your plan is perfect? ​​Can we escape their pursuit? What is the probability that all of us will leave safely? And the highest probability is what kind of damage will we sustain?

"

Dante shook his head again and said: "It's hard to say, the information we have is too little. Regarding the Blood Wing Society, except that we know that it is a gang and that Lyman is probably assisting them, we know nothing else.

Including how many people they have in this city, their fighting power and their quality in all aspects. And we can't figure out how much they are willing to pay to kill us... It's like saying I let you fight one person, but other than that

I won’t tell you who that person is, when and where you will fight, what restrictions are on weapons, or any other information. What do you think your chances of winning are?"

Jamala also shook her head, sighed, and said: "It seems that we are in bad luck tonight... I shouldn't have said that I will follow... Is it too late for us to go back? I also want to visit the chef conference.

…”

Dante smiled and said: "Go back, I'm sure you will be the first to die." As he said that, he looked behind him. Deep in the street, he saw a head quickly retracting into the corner...

…Oh, there’s more than one.

…

Jalkara South Gate.

When the team arrived in front of the city gate, the soldiers dispersed automatically and looked for their posts, while Jamala and others stood there blankly.

An officer who had been waiting for a long time came forward and said to everyone: "Which of you is the leader of the team?"

Everyone looked at each other, and then their eyes focused on Jamara.

"Okay." Jamara took a step forward helplessly and said: "That guy Feng Xie has gone somewhere, let us go first. I am the temporary team leader." At this time, more than half of the team.

The people are all members of the Free Mercenary Group, and Jamala is also the leader of the Free Mercenary Group. It is really expected that she will serve as the temporary person in charge.

The officer nodded and said: "It is difficult to open the city gate. I will take you out through the side door later. The horses have been prepared for you outside."

Cecilia cried, "What about our own goods?" Cecilia was obviously thinking about her beehives.

The officer said: "We also arranged to put them outside in the evening. Don't worry, we claim to be city defense munitions, so no one will be suspicious."

Dante said: "It doesn't matter now whether he is suspicious or not." What he meant was that others already knew for sure that he was going to escape, and it would be useless no matter how concealed the city gate was. And the officer mistakenly thought that he was going to escape.

Ding meant, "Since we're already here, even if someone gets suspicious now, it's too late." and smiled.

Walking out of the city wall through the side gate, there were about ten horses and a carriage outside, and there were several soldiers guarding them.

The officer turned around and smiled at everyone: "These horses are all horses that have been bred by our Rodok for many years. I can't guarantee the speed on the flat ground, but they will definitely run faster than ordinary horses on the mountains of Rodok."

Hurry. Besides, I can guarantee that no suspicious person will be able to leave this city gate tonight. So, if you leave like this, no one will be able to catch you!"

Dante stepped forward and touched the neck of one of the horses, and said calmly: "Suspicious person? City gate? Just your words, there are already two opportunities. I can think of it, let alone Lai

Man...it seems that there is going to be a fight tonight...eh? By the way, Sir Officer, I have something small that I would like your help with."

It was already past four o'clock in the morning, the darkest period before dawn. At this time, even the moon in the sky had disappeared into the thick halo, and the earth was pitch black. It was visible within a radius of more than ten miles.

, the only one with light was Jerkhala who had gradually disappeared behind him.

Darkness, accompanied by silence. Except for the occasional sound of night owls that sounded everywhere, there was only a light and messy sound of horse hooves.

"Dante! Is it really okay for us to drive on in the dark?" Jamala shouted softly: "I have been scraped by no less than ten branches! And the speed of the road is so slow. As long as we go down, we won't be able to go far until dawn.

ah!"

Dante said: "If you insist on lighting a torch, the thing that will scratch you may not be something as harmless as a branch."

Jamala shouted: "But our escape like this is really ineffective! I guarantee that Jalkara will not fall below the horizon until dawn. If this continues, even if they can't find us now, as long as the sun rises, we will

It will still be discovered."

Dante said: "What we do now, until the time before sunrise, is not to escape, but to avoid, do you understand?"

Jamala was stunned and said: "What do you mean?"

Dante explained: "If we simply want to escape as quickly as possible, we should light the torch and then gallop away, right? But in this way, our position will be completely exposed."

Jamala said: "Then we are walking so slowly now, even if we are not exposed, it is useless."

Dante said: "So, now it is not to escape, but to avoid."

Jamala asked: "What are you hiding from?"

Dante said: "Escape from the Blood Wing Society's search. As long as we can't be found in the vast darkness, the Blood Wing Society will definitely send out troops to find us. And as we get further away from Jalkara, the difficulty of their search will increase."

will become bigger and bigger. In addition, they also have an embarrassing contradiction regarding search - if there are more people in each search team, the search efficiency will decrease. If the number of people is small, even if we are found, we will not be able to find us in the short term.

We have organized an effective combat force to intercept us. We just need to wait for dawn. As long as after dawn, we find that no suspicious people appear in close range, then we can breathe a sigh of relief and run away at full speed. At that time,

It will be difficult for the Blood Wing Club to catch up with us. Of course, it is also possible that after dawn, we find the Blood Wing Club people are close in front of us, then we can only accept our fate... In addition, for the sake of safety, we just left Djerga

Before pulling it, I also asked the officer to randomly send a few teams to wander around Jerkhala with torches to confuse the people of the Blood Wing Society. That's all I can do at the moment. I don't know whether I can succeed.

To escape pursuit, you have to rely on God’s will.”

"Wait a minute," Sauron said suddenly, "I found a problem."

Dante asked: "What's the problem?"

Sauron said: "You just said that if the Blood Wing Society wants to search for us, there is an embarrassing contradiction, which is the problem of the number of people in each search team and the interception efficiency... If I were Lyman, I would simply ignore the search.

Teams search entirely on an individual basis. In this way, the search efficiency is greatly improved, and radial searches are possible. As long as everyone's forward speed is about the same, the distance between everyone at any time will not be too far apart.

As long as one person discovers us, he can notify others to come immediately. In this way, although there will not be too many people intercepting us at the beginning, since the distance between everyone is similar, the rate at which reinforcements arrive is stable.

It won't be long before we are surrounded..."

Jamala complained: "What you said is quite simple. How can we make the people who come to search for us travel at the same speed? Everyone's walking habits are different. Some people walk a hundred meters a minute.

Fifty steps, some people take two hundred steps a minute, and they will soon be able to distance themselves."

No one seemed to notice that Dante's face began to look ugly in the darkness. Sauron replied: "Just use some kind of signal to keep everyone's speed consistent."

Jamala complained again: "Where is there any signal here? If there is one, why can't I see it?"

At this time, Dante smiled bitterly and said: "Although you can't see it...but you can hear it..."

Just when Jamala was about to ask something, the cry of a night owl came from the night sky again. This time, the cry of the night owl was the same as what everyone had heard before, but it seemed to be more harsh than the previous ones.

.

Dante continued with a wry smile: "Every hundred steps... I really returned all the knowledge to my master. I couldn't react to such a simple signal method... Sauron, if my master is still here, you

He should be able to become my junior brother who is even better than Lyman..." After saying that, he sighed deeply and continued: "Everyone, be careful... We are in danger now..."

"Whoosh!" It seemed like the sound of an arrow cutting through the void. At the same time, a scream also sounded among the crowd.

…

At five o'clock in the morning, the east began to light up, signaling the arrival of a new day.

In a certain valley in the Kingdom of Rhodok, a group of people covered in blood sat on the ground dejectedly, gasping for air.

"Have you escaped the pursuers yet..." Jamara said while sitting on a rock, bandaging the wound on her arm. Although her tone was very calm, she could not suppress the grief, anger and excitement in her heart.

"We are getting rid of it for the time being..." Dante said with a look of despair, "But there is no guarantee when they will find this place... The sky is getting brighter and brighter, and most of our horses have been lost. We have already lost hope of escaping again.

It's not easy anymore... I'm sorry, because of my mistake... you couldn't even get your companion's body back..." Just before, when the first sound of breaking the air was heard, Sauron's head was nailed by an arrow.

They crossed paths and stayed in the mountains of Rhodok forever, dying in a foreign land.

"Don't say that..." Jamala said as calmly as possible: "You have tried your best. It's just that the enemies we encountered were too powerful... If it weren't for Cecilia, I'm afraid all of us would be dead by now.

." When she was surrounded by enemies before, Cecilia, in desperation, mobilized all the bees to attack the enemies, allowing everyone to escape. But those beehives had stayed in place, and now they could not

Used - if those shrewd enemies hadn't used torches to light the nearby haystacks, they could still have waited until the bees stung all the enemies and then left calmly.

Of course, now is not the time to feel sorry for the bees. Cecilia sighed, and in the faint morning light, carefully applied a jar of honey to Al who was lying on the ground - yes, Al. Their biggest
Chapter completed!
