Three men walked in from the door, holding steel pipes and knives in their hands, and walked towards the booth where the three Buchingtons were sitting in a menacing manner. The bartender looked at the evil men who rushed in at the door in surprise, and didn't know what to do for a moment.
.
Noticing the actions of the bartender, Bucklington relaxed a lot and looked directly at the three people walking toward them. The leader was a big man with a scorpion tattooed on his bald head. He smashed the steel pipe in his hand on the bartender.
At the table, he shouted loudly:
"Which of you is Bush...Buschlin or something like that?" Looking around the three of them, the bald villain tried to find the man with that strange name.
Arthur and Jie Lin were still thinking about who the bald man was talking about. Buchelington, who was still worried, grabbed Arthur's unfinished glass of beer and milk, poured it on the bald head's face, and at the same time
Arthur and Jie Lin shouted:
"Stop watching and why don't you take action?"
Because of the transformation of the body by the thunder element, Arthur reacted much faster than Jielin. He picked up another cup and smashed it at another villain standing behind the bald head. In a street fight, people from one party would target each other at the same time.
Causing unnecessary harm, especially in a small space like a pub booth.
Buchlinton kicked away the bald man blocking the way, stood between the three villains and fired his bow from left to right, blocking the opponent's punch and then punched one of the followers directly. Jielin had just picked up the last glass, and Arthur stood
He got on the table and pounced on the bald head. He had never learned professional fighting before, and he became even more comfortable in this kind of chaotic fight. Buchington didn't have time to use military fighting skills, and the man who was beaten to the ground by him
The bald follower tightly hugged his calf and brought him down. The two of them struggled together. On the other side, Arthur jumped behind the bald head and didn't know who was hitting whom.
In front of Jielin, there was only one gangster wielding a knife and sticking out his tongue. Jielin reluctantly put her straw hat back on, put on a smile and asked politely:
"Uncle, can we beat him less roughly?"
The gangster opposite chuckled obscenely, "How do you want to beat me, little sister?"
Jielin stretched out a finger to tell the gangster to wait, and then took out something from the clothes she was wearing. As Jielin trailed off and called "Ah", the girl took out a pistol that she had modified from her arms.
Pulling the bolt of the gun and pointing it at the gangster's head, he smiled playfully and said, "Of course I'll hit him like this."
The gangster looked at the pistol, but he was not too panicked. He sneered and kicked the follower and the bald head who were still fighting on the ground. "Get up quickly. If you delay for so long, the captain will be beaten again if he finds out."
Jie Lin frowned as she watched the gangsters pull up Buchington and the others from the ground. She never dared to put down the pistol in her hand easily. She asked doubtfully as she stood up and patted Buchington who was dusty: "
What's going on, Captain, aren't they gangsters who came to rob our carriage?"
Bridgerton and Baldhead looked at each other and laughed loudly in unison. Arthur was also confused by the performance of several people and did not dare to interrupt casually.
Before Buchington could explain, someone applauded and pushed open the wooden door at the front door of the tavern. Jie Lin and Arthur looked back and saw that the person who came was none other than George, who had just left to gather the team members. He was now leading three other reconnaissance teams behind him.
The team members returned to Da Vinci's Tavern.
George asked the six team members to order their own drinks, and specifically stipulated that those who had just failed in acting should be treated to buy drinks. He led the three Buchingtons to find a clean booth and sit down.
"When did Captain Buchington realize that it was not the gangsters in the town who were looking for trouble? I also wanted to put on a show and threaten you."
Buchlinton pointed at the bartender who was surrounded by six scout team members and asked George: "If it were a gangster in the town, would he be so at a loss?" After that, the two laughed loudly again,
Completely ignoring the reactions of Jie Lin and Arthur, who had just regarded the bald head as a villain.
Arthur sorted out the current situation, but found that he couldn't understand it, so he had to take the initiative to ask: "Why did your reconnaissance team attack us, George?"
George rubbed Arthur's head across the table, thought about how to explain it for a while, and waved to call over the bald head who was depressed about having his wallet emptied out and with a scorpion tattoo on his head. The bald head didn't look as fierce as before, but instead, George
With an honest look on his face, George introduced the three of them:
"This is the deputy captain of our sixth reconnaissance team, Tarim."
Tarim saluted the three of them without being seen, and sat down on the couch next to George. "I'm sorry, Lieutenant." He lowered his voice so that the bartender wouldn't hear, "You know what our mission is to do, so don't try it.
How can our companions' reaction be so simple and relieved?" Buchlinton waved his hand indifferently, "During this mission, don't call me lieutenant outside. I don't hold the rank of the Human Alliance. I'm going to get a few glasses of wine.
, talking while drinking."
Jie Lin rolled her eyes, ignored Bu Qilinton and Tarim who were shouting about drinking together, and stuffed the pistol back into her inner clothes. Perhaps Jie Lin did not have such quick reaction and close range compared to Bu Qilinton and Arthur Jie Lin.
She has physical fighting ability, but she never puts herself in danger. She finally got into the armory of official organizations such as the Military Arbitration Institute and the Law Enforcement Team. Would she be satisfied with just some long-barreled muskets?
The best equipment is of course for yourself.
George did not drink with Tarim and Buchlington, who had brought a few glasses of beer. Instead, he winked at Arthur and asked him to go to a booth a little further away to chat privately.
When he arrived at the booth in the corner, George became solemn and stared at Arthur, who was very different from four years ago.
"Why did you come here when you joined the army? Aren't twelve-year-olds only allowed to join the logistics team?"
Arthur was worried that no one would tell the details of what he had discovered before, so he started talking about it from the beginning. After hiding the old Ford thing, he basically told George everything about what happened with Parrish. Two days passed in a flash.
Hour.
After hearing what Arthur had suffered recently, George's facial features were all squeezed together. The arbitration office, the Human Alliance patrol, and the unknown wind wizard were inexplicably selected into the special forces. As Arthur himself analyzed before, these ordinary
A major event that might only happen once in a person's life was encountered by Arthur in just one month. It's hard not to suspect that someone is manipulating all of this.
But the most important thing is... Arthur has become a lightning wizard. George pinched Arthur's arm and said, "You can flash the lightning and let me see."
The bodies of living things have a sense of self-protection, and George now wants to try it on himself to see what the difference is in the wizard's body that has been transformed by the thunder element.
Ever since Arthur woke up after becoming a thunder wizard, he heard lightning calling his name in the conscious world. He has never spoken to the elements in so many days, and the weird pronunciation that only he can understand has never appeared.
. Just when he was about to remind George of this, Arthur felt George's palm gradually tightening on his arm.
The veins on George's arm protruded, and he used more force than when Arthur and Bald Tarim were fighting just now. Arthur only felt pain for a moment, as if he was being clamped tightly by a ferocious brown bear. Arthur's face was filled with the pain of George's huge force.
red.
George looked at Arthur calmly, his hands still increasing strength. Arthur managed to squeeze out a few painful words from the tips of his teeth. Words such as "let go" were ignored by George.
Crackling arcs of electricity emerged from Arthur's shoulders. George felt his palms slightly numb, but that wasn't enough. George flexed his muscles and squeezed Arthur's arm bones.
Arthur, whose eyes were filled with blood, stamped his feet violently, bursts of lightning emerged from his body, and he shouted:
"Asshole, I told you it hurts and asked you to let go!"
With a bang, George was hit by the electrical wave surging from Arthur's body, and his body flew out of the booth, smashing the couch on the other side of the booth.
