Chapter 58(1/4)

() However, in the past few years, a wave has forced this evil but stable Mamo Island to undergo tremendous changes.

This was caused by a hero and an unknown young man.

The east gate of the Dark Street is a no-man's land lined with ruin-like buildings.

A man was walking on the dusty road.

He is a man who looks like a thief no matter how he looks. He doesn't make any footsteps when he walks, his hunched body sways from time to time, and his hands that are constantly playing with are always clasped in front of his chest so that he can shoot out poisoned weapons at any time. Dagger. This man walked forward carefully looking at the surrounding buildings.

There was a sudden sound near his feet, and a slight puff of dust was stirred up.

Someone threw something like a small stone or something.

His heart almost stopped due to the shock, and he didn't feel any movement at all.

"Why are you so surprised? Aren't you coming to find me?"

There was a laugh that seemed to be mocking him. He was much taller, and had jet black hair and surprisingly white skin. Just looking at him like this, it was impossible to imagine that he had taken hundreds of lives. , dozens of them are assassins affiliated with the thieves\guild.

"Are you Ashuram?"

The thief lowered his voice and asked.

"That's right, Mystra of Amber Eyes. Would it be better for me to call you Dieter?"

"You, why do you even do this..."

The man known as "Amber Eyes" now feels like a dagger is pressed against his chest. The name Dieter is his real name that even his thieves and partners don't know.

"There are many ways to investigate. If I don't have this ability, how can I be qualified to fight you?"

"You say that's called fighting? That's basically fighting!"

Amber Eye's expression changed.

The assassins, who were the main combatants of thieves and guilds, had been almost destroyed because of this man and his men. But he never imagined that to this man, this was just a fight.

Due to the continuous struggle with the Ashuram faction, many powerful cadres, including the former guild leader, lost their lives. However, it is precisely because of this that he, who was originally only a low-level cadre, was able to become one of the best. powerful elements.

Anger and terror surged up in Amber Eyes' heart at the same time. He just thought that this young man had gone crazy. Is his blood really red? Is his heart really beating?

"If there is a purpose, I won't object if you want to fight. But I don't think so. I just don't like you, so I will cause trouble. It's as simple as that."

Ashuram said without changing his expression.

"Did you just come here to say this?"

A cruel expression appeared on his upright face, and he clearly showed murderous intent.

"I came here to tell you something."

Amber Eyes' expression was very painful, and he took out a letter from his arms.

"The Council of Dark Streets has written a letter to you."

"Just put it there. I know what's written in it. Are you going to kill that person? The red-haired mercenary who is known as one of the Six Heroes."

Amber Eyes nodded.

Although he is no longer surprised, he should have fully grasped the information from the Council.

Maybe there are spies, or maybe they sent spies, which is the same for them. They also have a general understanding of Ashuram's internal situation, but they just can't make full use of this information.

"It really makes me look down on you. The Council is actually more afraid of that guy than me? Are they afraid of the person who has the Demon King's Sword, and the barbarians in the Dark Forest?"

Beirut, known as the red-haired mercenary, became one of the hundred brave men during the Demon War that broke out about twenty years ago. He sneaked into the underground labyrinth known as the Demon God's Holy Land and became the last six to survive. One of them, while all the other brave men died in the Labyrinth of Death.

The six people who returned victoriously were honored as the Six Heroes. This legend will forever remain in the history of Rhodes Island, and this legend still continues to this day.

The Hero King Faun, who became the king of the Holy Kingdom of Falis, formed an alliance with the various kingdoms of Rhodes and drove the clouds of war away from the sky above the mainland of Rhodes Island.

The magician Walter, who was awarded the title of Great Sage, built a tower at the entrance of the underground labyrinth and became the guardian there. In order to seal the dwarf kingdom that was in ruins due to the devil, in order not to let the same mistake happen again. , he will protect it forever.

Saint Ness, who serves the Mother Earth Goddess Marfa, has become the highest priest of the religious order in the Marfa Temple in Tabor. She is worshiped as the reincarnation of the goddess. Although it is located in an extremely remote place, Pilgrims from all over the island still flock to the temple of Marfa from all over Rhodes Island.

No one knows the whereabouts of the Iron King Freibe of the southern dwarves who lost his kingdom. Perhaps he is still going around to fight against the surviving demon gods. Some people say that he lives alone in his destroyed kingdom, but there is no one yet. Anyone who has seen him.

There is also an "unnamed magic warrior" who is a mysterious figure whose true identity is unknown to anyone. He possesses unrivaled magic and sword skills, but he never shows up as if he is afraid of being seen by others. Because of his mystery xing, making the existence of magic warriors more legendary through the poems sung by bards.

And the last one is the red-haired mercenary Beirut.

His favorite woman was killed by the Demon King, and he himself was the one who gave the Demon King the final blow, so he can be said to be the most famous among the Six Heroes.

Such a hero suddenly appeared in Mamo and started a war in order to unify the island. According to intelligence, the barbarians in the Dark Forest and the demons headed by the black demon clan have all defected to his side, so the darkness The rulers of the street began to worry. After all, after getting the help of the demons, he had thousands, even tens of thousands, more troops. Now even if the people living in the dark street all took up arms to fight, there would be no There is no chance of winning, not to mention that it is impossible for them all to fight to protect this place. The lives of most residents are very unstable, and they live every day in the extreme state of terror and poverty.

In their eyes, the hero Beirut and the army he led are like the People's Liberation Army. Although they dare not say much for fear of being reported, it can be felt in the dark streets that the slaves and poor people seem to be looking forward to Beirut and the others. Attack over.

"The council is going to hire you as a council member. After all, you are also residents of the Street of Darkness, aren't you?"

Amber Eyes smiled humbly and stated the conditions proposed by the council.

"Do you still have nostalgia for this rotten place?"

Ashuram laughed loudly, picked up a small piece of rubble and threw it quickly.

The rubble flew straight out and hit the crow preening its feathers on the eaves of the ruins. The poor bird screamed and fell to the ground. He looked as if nothing had happened, as if he thought everyone here would do this. It looked like a child tearing off the legs of an insect.

Amber Eyes felt a chill.

In some respects, the cruelty of thieves\guilds can be calculated, and this cruelty is the best defense for the guild against foreign enemies, the way to maintain the organization, and the means to obtain money. Without wisdom or Skilled minions can't join the thieves' guild at all.

But this young man and his men were much more cruel than thieves and guilds. They not only killed beggars on the road arbitrarily, but also used daggers to dig into the private parts of prostitutes so that they could no longer make a living.

Buildings related to thieves and guilds were also set on fire by them, and many of them were innocent houses.

Of course, the thieves and guilds confronted them. People belonging to the organization Ashuram were killed one after another, and their bodies were openly placed on the street to give warnings. This is for those who feel terror and have things to protect. It is the most effective method for people.

However, they are neither of these two types of people.

They have no brothers or relatives, no money or food, no past or future, and no belief in any gods. The only people they can trust are their companions. Only when they gather, plunder and destroy, can they feel that they are still alive.

This kind of bonded thieves and guilds are simply not comparable. They are like wild horses that are out of control, like a group of hungry beasts that are never satisfied.

Among this group of young people, Ashuram is like their hero. He is the only law, the creed that must be obeyed, so they rushed to gather around him and began to formally negotiate with the council that dominated the city. Conflicts will occur.

Although the council would not remain silent, they could not come up with any method at all.

This is natural. The Fararis Order, one of the forces that make up the Council, recognized the Ashuram faction, which represents the destroyers of order, and the followers of the goddess of destruction, Katis, regard Ashuram as their guide. It is to fully support those who are heading for destruction.

And then another threat emerged.

This was due to the red-haired mercenary and the barbarians in the Dark Forest led by him starting to rise in droves. No one knew why the red-haired mercenary wanted to unify this place. The residents of Rhodes Island even thought that Beirut was going to purge this dark forest. All the evil on the island.

However, his main purpose is to establish the Mamo Empire, and he even claims to be the Dark Emperor. His actions make people feel that he is flaunting hegemony without boundaries.

He also once asked the Council of Dark Street to obey them, but of course this was impossible. If they gave up their dominant position, they would no longer be able to draw benefits.

The decision made by the Council is to let Ashuram and the others stand on their side to fight against Beirut's army. As long as these young people are allowed to belong to the Council and given some benefits, they should be obedient. No matter what How about, if we don't adopt a gentle policy towards these people, the Council of Dark Street will have no future, not to mention they will be the next generation members of the Council, as long as we spend some time to deal with Ashuram first. .

However, the red-haired mercenary Beirut and those barbarians should strictly speaking be foreign enemies. If they join forces with the demons of the Dark Forest, they will be regarded as the public enemies of the human race. The black elf clan that dominates the demons is the People treat them as if they were red-skinned ghosts or kobold ghosts.

They never imagined that the six heroes who defeated the Demon God King and destroyed the Demon God's legion would do such a thing. Some people also said that he had been possessed by the Demon God.

"Do you think Beirut will treat you as partners? If you want to survive, you must join forces with us to defeat the red-haired mercenary!"

"We are different from you, we are not afraid of death."

Ashram took out a short sword from his arms and cut off a piece of his fingernail.

He licked the blood that flowed out with his tongue, and his lips were stained red. Now he looked as sexy as a woman. If he were a gay man, he would definitely drool, but Amber Eyes does not have such a hobby. .

The negotiations failed, and Amber Eyes began to feel chilled.

The Council must let Ashuram and Beirut duel each other. Although this is a bit hopeless, their only hope is that these two people do not work together.

Anyway, it is impossible for a saboteur like Ashuram to make peace with Beirut.

"Is that your answer?"

Amber Eyes asked as he planned to end the negotiation.

"My answer is yes. Seeing you like this makes me do more evil to people called heroes. I will kill this guy named Beirut, just like I killed the thieves and the former leader of the guild."

Amber Eyes widened the light brown eyes from which his nickname came.

He never expected that this young man would agree. Judging from the conversation just now, it was simply unbelievable. Could it be that he also wanted to have a seat in the council?

But he said that he knew what the council was planning. Although he didn't say it explicitly, he must have gotten the information from the spies.

That's why he said he wanted to kill Beirut.

Amber Eyes remembered the body of the former leader of the thieves\guild. He was killed in the home of his fifteen-year-old lover. His whole body was chopped to pieces, his internal organs were pulled out, his eyes were gouged out, and then he was thrown away with the garbage. On the side of the road. The reason why it became like this was because his fifteen-year-old lover belonged to Ashram's faction. But later I heard that this girl also wanted to be Ashura's mistress, so she was chosen by Ashura. Mu executed it with his own hands.

"Really?"

Amber Eyes asked again carefully.

"I can change my mind easily. If I keep nagging me, I will regret it."

"I know, I will tell the council."

Even though he was surprised, Amber Eyes still sang the name of the god of thieves in his heart. All in all, he completed the task, and the members of the council would give him a good review. Now he is moving towards the position of leader of the thieves' guild. One step closer, all you have to do is complete the trap.

And he had already prepared for it.
To be continued...
