In a back alley in the city, the frost-haired old hunter Ajax stepped over the sewage flowing across the ground and suspicious objects floating in the sewage. Behind him, he fell to the ground in a mess, holding a long dagger and a short sword.
Thorns and axes, but a tattered human body that cannot survive.
At the end of the alley, the sound of fierce running had stopped abruptly; then, as the wind lantern was put down in the old hunter's hand, a human figure with pale skin, a bare forehead, and protruding eyes was suddenly illuminated, with his limbs climbing the wall and his eyes full.
He turned his head viciously and glared at Ajax.
However, several flying knives have been nailed to this humanoid body, as well as hollow blood grooves and pipe handles embedded between the bones and muscles; large swaths of blood stains continue to flow from his body; and it slowly becomes more and more
Weak; and the button-down coat of a fine servant was still vaguely visible on his body.
"I just want to say one more thing," Ajax did not go up, but shot the opponent's shoulder again with his crossbow, nailing him to the wall with blood spattering. Then he took out a small piece of silver-plated bloody blade tip
Come on, "Where is the original owner of this weapon?"
"Go to hell! Damn hunters, all hunters shouldn't exist in this world." The humanoid screamed, opened its mouth and revealed its unusual fangs and said: "Tear you into pieces, piece by piece.
Eat them even with their flesh and blood...ha...hahaha..."
The old hunter Ajax was suddenly startled and suddenly stepped back a few steps; he saw several silent missiles falling on the muddy ground where he was standing. However, he was also forced to leave.
Yes, the shelter by the alleyway wall.
Suddenly, several fishing nets fell from the sky, covering the alleyway where he was. Ajax only had time to slash one with his sword, and use his long sword to pick apart another; he jumped up and shook off the third one; and then he
The moment when I threw my sword in the air and grabbed the edge of the building and jumped up.
Unexpectedly, he was unaware of the faint whistling of the wind in the blind corner of his field of vision; he quickly pushed his feet against the wall and made a big turn, barely grazing his animal skin waistcoat, and dodged several missed sneak attacks; then, Ajax saw quietly in the corner of his eye.
The last snare that was pulled silently.
The next moment, with nowhere to dodge, he only had time to twist his body as hard as he could before half of his hands and feet were entangled. Immediately, his muscled arm was hit by an arrow and lost its support. He fell again in mid-air and was struck dully.
Amidst the sewage and mud all over the ground.
At this time, a few figures appeared in the dark alley, each holding a single-ring finger blade that was good for narrow melee combat, a recurved dagger, a pickaxe, and a one-handed sickle; they looked better than the gangsters who blocked the road before.
, more well-trained and well-coordinated.
"You old dog, you are so poor that you may not even be able to get together the inherited formula for the secret hunting medicine, right?" The person standing on a high place laughed softly: "You are getting more and more popular.
Young Master, you are about to be forgotten, so what can you use to fight against me?"
"Before, the person you were looking for turned to our patron for help because of a nightingale, so we designed a quite interesting game for him. But we didn't expect that those specially left imprints
, can you bring out another one?"
The next moment, there was suddenly a fierce sound of frying beans, and the black figures entrenched on the roof suddenly screamed and fell down. The thugs who cautiously surrounded the old hunter Ajax
, couldn't help but turn around in alarm.
"That's why my help is indispensable!" Jiang Tian, carrying a wind lantern, also appeared on the roof of the low building opposite. "According to my experience, for such shady things, of course, you have to use any means."
, try your best to avoid future troubles forever!"
"Sir! You..." The old hunter Ajax looked at the sudden appearance of Jiang Tian and others with a complicated face. His heart was filled with both joy and fear, as well as an indescribable feeling of shame and regret.
"Old El, you are wrong." Jiang Tian said calmly: "We are all partners who have fought side by side. Why can't we trust you and insist on acting alone? Could it be that if something happens to you, we can
So you stay out of it, or are you indifferent to it?"
Before he finished speaking, a large area of armor and sword reflections appeared in the alleyway; it was almost immediately followed by the aftershock of the fire blunderbuss; a series of crossbows were fired, shooting the armed thugs down.
, but barely missed Ajax lying on the ground.
"Damn it, what are you..." The leader who was talking from a high place screamed, but he suddenly jumped up; with a jumping power that far exceeded that of an ordinary person, he suddenly flew through the air and pounced on Jiang Tian on the other side.
; Then Jiang Tian suddenly waved his hand towards him, and heard a loud bang in the air.
The thug leader who flew towards him with a sword was suddenly struck by a huge force on his body, and he hit the opposite lower wall like a fly. At the next moment,
As the wall cracked due to the impact, it suddenly collapsed and rolled in.
A moment later, the mob leader whose half body was almost broken and whose head was almost turned sixty degrees was still alive after being carried out by the searching soldiers. Even though he was vomiting blood one mouthful after another, he was still alive.
Still screaming and wanting to yell something.
"Speaking of which, I like you the best. You are very strong-willed and will not die easily no matter how hard you torture them." Then, Jiang Tian stepped on his head, showing his pale teeth and smiled: "Next.
, please don’t disappoint me!”
As the menacing procession passed through the dimly lit streets, another pair of "nightingales" who came out to do business at night were startled. Finally, they arrived at the wealthy residential area in the north of the city. The muddy ground here
, it also becomes tidy and solid as the bricks are laid.
There are even avenue trees, flower beds and drainage ditches dotted throughout; therefore, the air is less polluted with the filthy smell caused by the gathering of people. Most of the small buildings and houses standing next to each other on the street are shrouded in a
In the darkness, only a few lights were still on.
Occasionally, you can meet a few night watchmen with lanterns, sticks and rapiers. When you see so many soldiers passing by, you can't help but hide in the side alley. Therefore, the team led by Jiang Tian,
Almost without any obstacles, we arrived in front of a brightly lit courtyard.
The black iron-clad gate with nails in the courtyard looks quite old, and the entire porch, filled with figures and flowers, is also shrouded in dense and overgrown flower vines; it looks quite stylish and elegant. Standing outside the door is vaguely okay.
Hear the melodious music and the laughter of men and women.
Obviously, when most of the soldiers and civilians in the outside world were still in famine, these wealthy and prominent families still had the energy to lock them up and hold private banquets for entertainment. Just standing outside the foyer, you could hear what was going on.
Complained about the lack of supplies and inconvenient travel.
However, when the door was opened from the inside out by the scouts who climbed over the wall, and as a swarm of soldiers came in, they violently smashed it open. Behind the flower door of the banquet hall of the main building, Jiang Tian, who was surrounded in front of the door,
We also saw many long tables piled with delicacies reflected in the mirrored lamps and candles.
There are roasted piglets with fruits in their mouths, large roasted chickens marinated in honey, large pans of panna cotta/pudding with lots of nuts and sugar syrup, large steamed fish covered with spices, and pies topped with cream.
Immediately, the soldiers who had already eaten dinner couldn't help but swallow their saliva on the spot.
Most of the men at the banquet wore long, oversized coats and embroidered sleeved jackets; they wore tight pants or bloomer shorts and stockings. The women wore tights and long lace skirts that tied their waists to their chests; there was another
An old man wearing a black gown with white ribbons around his neck;
But at this time, most of them had left their seats and were scattered in the empty banquet hall, chatting and laughing in groups; even in some corners and in the shadows of candles, Jiang Tian saw two couples with his sharp eyes, losing love.
Men and women holding each other's hands and...men and women?
The moment they were disturbed by the intruding soldiers, the women couldn't help but scream softly. They pulled their skirts to their chests and dodged behind the men. Finally, a short, fat man with a thick gold chain shouted loudly.
He said: "Who are you? Don't you know that this is Viscount Horton's special job? There is also the circuit judge Lord Lafont present. Who is your chief? How dare you offend the nobles of the kingdom..."
Following his words, the men and women plucked up their courage again and started asking questions one after another; even slaves wearing gray button-down shirts appeared from nowhere and rushed forward to block these non-rich people.
Jigui stood in front of the man and woman, clenching their fists on their chests to make a protective gesture.
"Yes, it is them. In the name of the newly appointed special military judge, they have brought everyone back. No one is allowed to be left out." However, Jiang Tian carefully looked at the other party's clothes and couldn't help but nodded and confirmed: "If anyone
Anyone who dares to obstruct them will be subdued on the spot or even shot to death."
Following the order, the soldiers in the hall who were fully clothed couldn't help but roared in unison and moved forward a few steps. Some even smelled the smoke of gunpowder and the sound of winding. But it was the musketeers and crossbowmen from the rear team.
, matchlock guns and military crossbows have been set up in the foyer and outside the flower windows.
When the servants in button-down clothes saw this, they suddenly fell apart, and some even rolled on the smooth floor tiles, dragging out a trail of water. The men and women also ducked inwards one after another,
A series of screams and random curses broke out;
However, the old hunter had quietly sneaked in from the window, and under the cover of the oriental patterned pillars, he went around the side and rear of these reveling men and women. He suddenly waved a slender silver chain and volleyed it towards one of them.
Next to the old man in black clothes and white belt, there were male guests who kept scolding him.
The next moment, he suddenly screamed in public, but was trapped by the ring end of the silver chain. And when he tried his best to hold the silver chain in his palms and neck, there was a sizzling sound visible to the naked eye.
The green smoke and the indescribable burnt smell suddenly turned into a ferocious face with protruding canine teeth.
