Asha was caught off guard and was dragged into the house by a man, who was so frightened that she didn't even react because of the man's skill.
However, now the house in the alley was dark because there were no lights. There was only a faint light from the other side, but it was still a little dim, and she couldn't see the other person's face clearly.
Then she held it with one hand and asked sharply.
"Who are you"
"you"
"Quiet!"
However, the man standing opposite him had let go of Asha at this moment. His voice was deep and powerful, directly interrupting Asha's words.
But it actually made Princess Tie, who had always had an unruly temper, shut her mouth instantly, and her face was full of surprise and uncertainty.
Because the other party's voice felt very familiar to her, but she hadn't heard it for many years.
"you"
The opponent's fingers were very strong. Just now, he grabbed Asha's wrist and grabbed her into the house. Now that he had let go, the woman's wrist was still slightly red and painful.
She seemed to have thought of who the owner of the voice was. She couldn't see the other person's face clearly, but she had a vague guess in her heart. However, this guess was so bold that even Asha couldn't believe it.
However, Asha thought of what the other party had just said and the fierce pursuers before, and then she stopped talking and obediently closed her mouth.
But at this moment.
Noisy and chaotic sounds came from the alley outside the house. It was obvious that the pursuers who had just chased Asha had caught up.
"Where's this bitch?"
The group of masked gangsters who were chasing Asha were obviously very familiar with the terrain of Tyrosh. Therefore, when they first started chasing, one group of people chased after her while the other group took the opportunity to go around to the other side.
Prepare to repeat the same trick and surround the opponent again.
And if the containment is successful this time, Asha will not be able to escape no matter what, even if she is possessed by Arthur Dayne, the Sword of Dawn.
However, now this group of masked pursuers came after them panting, as if they had seen a ghost, because Asha disappeared in their encirclement!
"Um?"
"what happened?"
"Where are the people?"
The leader of the masked mercenaries was furious and said angrily to the pursuers he met on the other side.
"how could I know?"
However, the mercenaries on the other side were also very innocent, because they didn't see anyone, so they just chased them all the way.
"Did this bitch get wings and fly away?!"
The mercenary leader suppressed his anger and spoke, but everyone knew that it was absolutely impossible to fly away with wings, so he cast suspicious eyes on the doors in this alley.
"Someone helped her escape!"
"Quick! Search!"
"The city guard will be here in a moment!"
They bribed a captain of the city guard in advance for this operation.
The Tyrosh people are known for their greed, and even the election of the Grand Prince is full of bribes. As long as you can afford the price, even the Grand Prince's position can be sold to you.
Of course, the prerequisite for this is that you can afford the price.
Therefore, they bribed the city guards, which led to such a serious and vicious case, and the reason why the guards still did not arrive.
However, there must be a limit to this matter. The price they pay will determine how long they can buy it.
They originally thought that it wouldn't take long to kill someone and run away, but they didn't expect that Asha and the iron type reacted quickly. This woman broke out of the encirclement and caused trouble for them, so that now it has become a difficult situation.
.
Even if they can't catch up, they have to catch up, otherwise this mission will definitely fail, and the price of failure is beyond their ability to bear.
The masked mercenaries could see his livid face through the black cloth, and the other mercenaries naturally knew the price of failure, and everyone began to desperately search for the whereabouts of Asha Greyjoy.
"Open the door!"
"Open the door!"
Bang
Bang
They kicked open the doors of each house to search, and Asha, who was hiding in one of the small rooms, became nervous again.
"Hey, what should we do?"
However, the man opposite did not speak, but silently grasped a giant ax hidden behind the door.
But at this moment, a cry of death suddenly came from outside the door. It turned out to be Tyrosh's guards who finally arrived too late.
News that the emissary of the Iron Throne was attacked and escaped reached the palace of Tyrosh, who was horrified when he heard the news.
Then he hurriedly ordered to protect the envoy and never let the envoy have any problems in Tyrosh. Therefore, the guards of Tyrosh hurriedly dispatched to arrest these criminals.
The captain at the head was the one who was bribed by this group of people. At this moment, he was wearing armor that was almost bursting with a round belly, and he spoke loudly and righteously.
"Lawless!"
"Get 'em!"
Immediately, Tyrosh's defenders swarmed forward and captured the group of masked mercenaries.
However, this group of masked mercenaries was naturally not a kind person. Each of them had licked blood from their swords and had rich fighting experience. Naturally, they fought back, and the two sides fought in the alley.
Even this group of mercenaries briefly gained the upper hand, killing Tyrosh's defenders and retreating steadily.
However, although most of Tyrosh's defenders are useless like the former Golden Robes, they cannot stand up to their large numbers, and Tyrosh also has a famous mercenary army.
Immediately, many of the masked mercenaries were killed and wounded. The masked mercenary leader saw the timing wrong and cut a bloody path to escape, while the remaining people were captured alive and killed.
, was quickly suppressed.
The Iron Throne messenger Asha Greyjoy and the middle-aged man holding the giant ax who were hiding in the dark room all let out a sigh of relief.
Regardless of the secret behind this matter, Lord Tyrosh would not dare to kill the emissary of the Iron Throne in broad daylight, no matter how courageous he was.
Otherwise, an inevitable war will break out in an instant.
Tyrosh is the city-state closest to the continent of Westeros, and if the Iron Throne wants to send troops to Tyrosh, they don't even need to set off from Westeros. The legions stationed in Pentos are enough to wipe out this island city-state.
Therefore, when Tyrosh's defenders appeared, they were considered safe.
Then the tall and burly middle-aged man put down the giant ax in his hand, found a flint and lit the candle in the room, and the swaying firelight dispersed the darkness in the room.
Asha Greyjoy also saw this man's face clearly, it was a face that was very familiar to her.
Her extremely bold guess just now turned out to be true, and the words that came to her lips couldn't help but blurt out.
