Chapter 360: 　Guest Performance (Part 1)

It was night, and the town of Tours was immersed in the tranquil moonlight.
When it was time to fall asleep, Lacey, the old town mayor, was not sleepy. He sat alone on a tree stump in the open space in front of his house, smoking a smouldering cigarette alone. In those eyes that were already a little cloudy, the previous pictures flashed from time to time. In those pictures, there is always the figure of grandson Wook. That little guy was never a peaceful person, he was very naughty from a very young age, which made the old mayor angry and loving.
Lacey couldn't help but laugh when thinking of Wooker peeing in his teacup as a child. But immediately, the old mayor was overwhelmed by great grief.
Not long ago, Wook was executed on the grounds that he was deserter. When the instructor announced this to him, the old mayor almost fainted. He is just such a grandson, but now, Wook has left this world forever. The only reason that the old mayor did not wave his crutches to the instructor, only silently asked him to leave. After that, people didn't see Lacey for three days.
My favorite is gone, but life has to go on. So Lacey appeared in front of the people again, and a few days ago, personally sent the soldiers away. Those are all residents of the small town, they are other people's husbands and sons, but now, they have only one identity, that is, the soldiers of Sir Maud.
They left the town and will be on the battlefield soon. The old mayor does not know, how many people will be able to come back completely by then?
The soldiers in Storm City evacuated, leaving only a team of about ten people. They stay in the town, in a camp outside the town. From the direction of Lacey's house, one could vaguely see the flames of the camp.
However, the fire seemed to be a little bigger tonight, and the old mayor rubbed his already presbyopic eyes. When the night wind sent a burning smell into his nose, the old mayor was sure that the camp was on fire!
After a while, the bell tower in the town rang, awakening familiar people from their dreams. Lacey shouted with all his strength: "It's on fire! The barracks is on fire, everyone got up to fight the fire."
However, the young and strong men in the town have left, and most of the people who walked out of the house were women, men who were already menstruating. When they were about to organize personnel to go to the military camp to fight the fire, a team suddenly rushed into the town. In the front is a team of knights, and behind are warriors wearing half-masks. They hold torches and swords to gather the residents of the town.
The fire/gun in the hands of these people made people scared, especially when the man at home left the village, it made women feel helpless. Fortunately, the other party did not use force, which made the old mayor's heart a little more at ease.
A seemingly leader, but a very young teenager stood out and asked, "Who is the mayor of this town?"
People subconsciously looked at Lacey, and the old town mayor was not ready to avoid it. He stood up and said, "I am Lacey, this lord. Just take what you want, just don't hurt these poor people. "
The leader nodded: "Listen, we are Daddy's people. Now this town belongs to us. As for the resistance, the barracks outside your town is the end of the resistance. Now, I want you to take out all the food. . All the food, if I find someone hiding it, hehe, I hope you don’t regret it."
Lacey said with a bitter face: "My lord, the men in the town are called into the army. There is not much food left. Can you keep us a bit?"
"Don't talk nonsense, I don't have so much patience. If you don't hand it over, we can kill you and we can take it ourselves!" The leader snorted coldly, and intentionally exuded a slight killing intent, so the surrounding temperature suddenly dropped a little.
The old mayor can only ask people to fetch the food at home, from bread to jerky, and even the ale that people make themselves. After the leader asked the horse to take all the food away, he said to the old mayor: "Go tell your Sir Maud, that Dick is no longer ready to cooperate with him. The benefits he has gained from us over the years Quite a lot, now we have to get it back bit by bit."
Lacey stood on the spot in a daze, and had not yet realized what the young leader meant. The residents around were talking about it, and their focus was naturally the cooperation between Maude and Dick.
They certainly knew that Daddy Dick was the most powerful bandit in the Blood Rock Wasteland, but they never thought that their lord would have a cooperative relationship with bandits. It now seems that they are in a disaster for some reason, otherwise there will be no revenge tonight. After the team left, the old town mayor and a few other bold residents came to the barracks. The barracks’ simple houses were already destroyed.
In the open space of the camp, the bodies of ten soldiers appeared in different places. They all had traces of resistance, but were ruthlessly killed. Those corpses covered in blood seemed to illustrate Daddy's determination.
This evening, the territory of Storm City was not very peaceful. Starting from the town of Tours, three towns not far apart were attacked. Without exception, the defense forces in the town were quickly broken, and no soldiers in Storm City were spared. Food in the town was looted, and the only good news is that ordinary residents were not harmed. But without food, it made them unable to maintain their lives at all, so the people in these towns began to move to Storm City, and brought with them the message of Daddy.
"absurd!"
In the lord's mansion of Storm City, Maude shook his head and said: "Unless Dick is crazy, I won't do this!"
Standing next to him, Leigh had just given a detailed report on the attack that happened last night. He couldn't believe it, but the people who moved to Storm City were almost the same, which inevitably made people suspicious. Reger said in a deep voice: "Will Dick be dissatisfied with our distribution of benefits over the years? That's why he did this kind of thing to tell us?"
"Then he has a long life. He has been able to live well these years without my shelter. Otherwise, he would have called someone to kill him, so let's send someone to Dick and ask him to understand. In addition, Send a team to the border to have a look. If you encounter the murderers from last night, you will catch them first before talking."
"I see." Reger saluted and turned to leave.
That evening, a crusade team left Storm City. There are a hundred people in this team. There are ten thunder knights in the team, and the others are gale infantry. Leading the team is Leigh's adjutant Covey, a 13th-level knight. With the configuration of this team, it was enough to wipe out the mob that attacked the town last night. Judging from the information collected from people's mouths, the number of thugs who attacked the town was only 20 or 30, which in Covey's view is simply not worth mentioning.
There was also a thunder knight who set off with the crusade team, and he went straight to the direction of the blood rock wasteland. This knight did not act, did not notice his leaving back, and fell into the sight of a pair of eyes. But even if he found out, he probably wouldn't care. After all, who would pay attention to a little snake lying in the grass beside the road?
In the blink of an eye, it was night, and a small bonfire was lit on a soil slope. The knight was sitting by the fire eating dry food, while the horses beside him gnawed the nearby green grass peacefully. After the man and horse had enough rest, the knight set off again. Due to the seriousness of this situation, he was instructed to travel day and night, and he must bring back Dick's information in the shortest possible time.
Down the is a narrow road, and the cold moonlight casts on the road, filling the earth with the smell of loneliness and desolation. Moonlight shot from behind the knight, pulling out a clear shadow on the ground. The lonely journey often makes people unresponsive, and the knight's mind even floats to the young wife at home. So when there was another shadow on the ground, the knight realized that there was an extra person behind him.
The black long dress was constantly swaying by the wind, which made the splayed dresses look like bat wings. The speed of the galloping man was faster than that of a galloping horse, not much better than the horse under the knight's seat. He still had time to smile at the knight's side, and then a few black lightning flew out of his arms.
There was a sudden sound of breaking through the air.
The knight instinctively leaned back, letting a few pitch-black throwing knives miss. However, one of the flying knives plunged into the front leg of the war horse, and the war horse suffered pain and fell to the ground with a scream. The knight rolled off his horse, before adjusting his posture, his feet suddenly tightened. He looked down, a chain wrapped around his heel like a snake. The chain slammed back, causing the knight to slide forward.
The man in black was dragging the chain with both hands, pulling the knight in his direction. In his busy schedule, the knight drew a long knife and nailed it into the ground, twisting the chain tightly before stopping himself. He quickly got up, a flower in front of him, the other party had already rushed over.
In the man's hand, a black-painted knife flashed like black electricity. The knight stepped on the chain and was able to pull the steel knife up to meet the enemy~EbookFREE.me~ The short knife in the man's hand appeared out of sight, and he kept attacking around the knight. Every time the short sword appeared, it was like a sickle from the death in the shadows, beckoning and killing.
The knight gradually saw blood, and he began to fail to keep up with the man's speed, the long knife in his hand became as heavy as a thousand pounds, and the sword's momentum gradually made it impossible to open. When there was a wide and deep wound on his neck, the battle finally came to an end. And from the knight's fall to the death of the knife, the whole process took less than three minutes.
Belmode smiled slightly at the fallen Thunder Knight. He put away the short knife and drew the knife from the horse's leg. The knight's body was put back on the horse again, and then he patted the horse's ass, and the horse ran in the same direction as when it came and went. The horse was wounded, and it was probably dawn when it returned to Storm City. Belmode can almost imagine the wonderful expression when Maude saw the knight's corpse.
At that time, the misunderstanding between him and Dick should be deeper, right? Thinking of this, he couldn't help whistling: "What a wonderful performance."
While the sigh was still floating in the air, Belmode already flew in the other direction.
