Of course, this refers to those guys who are messing around in peaceful areas.
Influenced by the civilized world, there are a lot of rules among them - written and unwritten conventions, and it is said that they must also comply with some provisions of certain guilds, guilds and other organizations.
Edward did not inquire about this matter in detail, but only had a fragmentary understanding - after all, in the Whispering Woods, the mercenaries often showed a different appearance - the extreme environment would squeeze out all their true feelings.
, the so-called friendship and help are far more fragile than rotten linen in the face of rare ores worth tens of thousands of gold, or the deadly threat of ferocious monsters.
But this kind of 'civilized' rules has also caused some difficulties for the mercenary groups around the city - if the opponent is not completely annihilated, the hatred is likely to continue endlessly, and eventually it will use any means.
to an extreme extent,
"How did you tell there was something wrong with this female?"
The voice in his heart interrupted Edward's thinking. A small crystal surface was exposed from the shadow of the hunter's hood, and he observed the surroundings sensitively. It was as if he wanted to take in all the scenery - although this guy didn't have a
Real eyes or similar organs, but can feel everything within the visual distance of an ordinary person, including sounds, images and smells. It has to be said that this production technology is really excellent, and Edward even thought that in the future
If you develop in this area, can you make a group of small things like this to serve yourself?
"Did Katzeyek ever say that you are too curious? Look around you!"
Of course, it's easy to use. Edward is not prepared to answer this guy's questions. Anyway, it can steal answers from other people's minds. However, the connection with this guy's mind is also a very convenient ability, although it cannot really be used.
It is definitely enough to present what the Psychic Crystal Servant sees directly in front of Edward, and pay attention to the key goals.
Therefore, after crossing three streets, the figure of the woman and her companion was still firmly locked in Edward's gaze.
It's not that their actions are too careless or lack of vigilance - in fact, they are very cautious in observing their surroundings. They try to walk through the narrow streets and take more detours, and they do not stay in places with a wide view for too long.
.However, this kind of caution may be effective for ordinary tracking, but for Edward, it is simply a meaningless move-just like the two or three eyeliners they just arranged near the back door of the hotel lobby, they could not catch Edward.
His figure could not escape Edward's sight.
For a hunter, shuttling between the houses and crowds in the city is an easy task that is ten times easier than wandering through the murderous jungle - there are more places to hide and cover, and there are
There are more ways to confuse the sight, and more importantly, the opponent does not have the nose that can smell the smell miles away in the wind or count the eyes of ants in the darkness like Warcraft.
Under the hood, Edward's dark brown pupils flickered slightly. While staring at the actions of the two people, he was considering his own purpose in his heart.
The capabilities of these guys are not very strong. Although their individual combat capabilities can compete with the mercenaries coming in and out of Baiyang Town, and may even be one or two better than the elites among them, but in
His experience in life-and-death combat was vastly different.
Just like the guys in the forest who are confronting Edward head-on, if they choose to attack a target at the beginning, they have at least a 50% chance of killing Edward first in the chaos. At worst, they can also use the jungle.
Cover, delaying the group of people until the reinforcements arrived, but they chose to face the enemy head-on. As a result, Edward killed half of the people by himself. Even if there were many conveniences after Edward's psychic awakening, their judgment was still unclear.
The error is indeed the main reason.
If possible, Edward would really like to ignore these people. Unless such guys have an extreme advantage in numbers, there is no way they can cause any trouble to elusive people like Edward in densely populated areas. However, now it has indeed caused
The hunter was secretly frightened by the speed with which he came to the door.
This must be the power of the mage in the opponent's team.
Even though he has never really learned magic, Edward has heard a lot about various rumors about magic effects. In magic, there are too many spells related to tracking targets. Whether it is specialization, prophecy or enchantment faction, you want to keep an eye on it.
It is not difficult for characters without magic protection, and if the mage has some status or property, he can easily monitor other people's every move from a distance with a special crystal ball, and even cast spells on the target through it.
, mages with higher abilities can even use it to directly cast spells on enemies.
This is of course intolerable to Edward. Personal desire may be just an illusory word in this world, but for him, it is a sacred word that cannot be compromised. Of course, more importantly, the other party may
Put him in danger at any time.
In my memory, those paparazzi also have basic human rights protection. Celebrities may have no choice but to beat them up and be condemned, causing uproar. But here, killing someone is not a shocking thing. The more 'civilized'
In this city, there are more and more innocent souls rotting in the sewers. The ten corpses can only be regarded as the most common incidental items in a ditch.
In this world that lacks legal and moral restraints, the word "defensive" has never been used. The right way to attack the other party before they pose a threat to you is to be unobjectionable.
"Now that you have thought it through, don't hesitate! The meaning of kindness is to use it to your advantage, but if you practice it, it will eventually become it to control you. Or do you feel that your back has been
Hard enough to withstand any sword?"
The voice of the spiritual crystal servant sounded, and for a moment it seemed like a cold long sword, interrupting the hunter's hesitation and reaching a soft place in his mind: "Emotionally, remember that you have the ability to destroy
Anything you don’t want, or anything that makes you feel uncomfortable, as long as you really have such a will! This is the real strong person." |
"Disgusting logic."
Edward shook his head and his eyes narrowed.
The streets and alleys have become messy in sight, indicating that this place has left the circle that the "upper-class" people in the city are accustomed to. The strange smell of food to the stench of crowding float over the streets, and narrow muddy paths have also replaced them.
The originally neat corridors spread out in all directions between the buildings. The haphazardly built buildings cast a large shadow, and even in this dusk, they showed an inexplicable gray and cold tone.
But a noisy and indifferent environment is undoubtedly the most suitable for actions that are not suitable for exposure to the light.
What's more important is that the two people in the distance have separated from each other.
After a slight hesitation, Edward followed the tall shadow - that woman seemed to know the most, but most of them were things that Edward didn't need to know, not to mention her bossy attitude towards the two people.
It may be a small leader of the opponent. If he attacks her, it will trigger a full-scale counterattack from the opponent.
The short man who just left may be weaker, but also more slippery. In comparison, this guy who obviously has a certain degree of confidence in his own force but doesn't look smart should be a good target.
This mercenary was tall and had strong arms and legs, but after leaving his companions, he obviously lost some of the necessary vigilance.
With nothing to do, he slipped past a street stall and exchanged six copper coins for a piece of bread with lettuce and fat. After taking a satisfied bite, he turned around to a quiet alley, but the alley entrance was not far away.
, he suddenly noticed a slight footsteps.
The mercenary turned around warily and noticed a figure standing silently not far behind him.
He is not tall, and is wrapped in a gray robe. The color is not very deep, but it hides him in a deep haze... Or, the shadow seems to be created by himself.
The tall man's eyes couldn't help but tighten for a moment.
The other party's face was deeply hidden in the shadow of the drooped hood, but for some reason, the mercenary seemed to see his eyes at that moment - eyes without pupils, no, it should be said to be silver-white. Placed under
In the eye sockets, there are slightly glowing gems.
This strange cognition flashed through his mind, but the next moment it turned into a blank - the moment their eyes met, a terrible pain burst into his mind!
It was a severe throbbing pain, tenderness, tearing pain, and friction pain... An indescribable feeling spread from the depths of the head to the surroundings. It was different from any other painful feeling. It was as if the head had been put into a stone.
It was like being crushed and squeezed. Even though he was a veteran who had tried the experience of near-death several times, the terrifying feeling still made him scream in agony!
But he couldn't scream out - the half-cut piece of bread stopped at his mouth was pushed by a hand and blocked his open mouth, turning the scream into a low midnight sound, and then there was a strange impact from his chin.
scattered, leading him into darkness.
The darkness lasted for a while before being broken by a low voice.
"Where is your mage?" The voice was distorted and sounded very weird. The mercenary opened his eyes slightly and noticed the eyes staring at him so close.
The mercenary shook his head and instinctively remained silent, but in the next moment, another kind of terrible stinging pain rushed from his fingers into his mind! He couldn't help but screamed again! But after sending out
There was still only a helpless whine, his pupils shrank, and he looked at the thin gray thing in front of him, with a few drops of blood... and there was only that voice in his ears, unhurriedly.
After that pain, the narrator realizes the terrible truth:
"You have ten nails, and I have a lot of time. So, let's see how long you can last? Of course, if you cooperate with me, you can get what you want. Now, choose for yourself...
"
…
"Virgil... is stationed outside the city with the captain. There are twelve of us here, under the command of Sister Leya..." When the third nail left his body, the sturdy mercenary finally collapsed, and then greeted him
What was there was a cold feeling on the neck and complete darkness.
Just as the blood spurted, something originally placed in his arms exploded with a bang.
Edward frowned, the sound was not loud, but in Edward's field of vision, there was an obvious halo expanding from the mercenary!
