Vol 4 Chapter 66: , Murder in a Caravan (19)

The sound of mechanism operation came from under his feet again, and Kiel clenched his sword and shield tightly, ready to respond at any time.

Contrary to his expectations, when the sound of the machine's operation gradually became louder, he felt that the wooden floor under his feet seemed to be tilted?

He separated his feet, and immediately felt the changes in the wooden floor under his feet from the different inclination angles of his left and right feet.

"What's going on? What are you doing to these guys? Do you want to be so exaggerated!"

With the light from the openings on the left and right walls of the house, Keir saw that the wooden floor under his feet split into two halves from the middle down. There was a dark and deep gap in the middle, and all kinds of things on the ground fell down with the sloping ground, making clanking sounds after falling to the bottom.

Just by listening to the sound, one could tell that the falling object hit an object with a metal point, and only then did it make a crisp and deadly metal collision sound.

Although the mechanism of the floor under his feet is not fast, there is not much time left for Kiel.

He carefully stuck to the wall, stepped on the sloping ground to the right side of the hole, first put away the shield in his hand, and then grabbed the edge of the hole with one hand, while the long sword in the other hand kept slashing at the hole. Cut off sideways.

The wooden wall is obviously not the opponent that Kiel hunted with the long sword reforged with magic materials, but driven by the loud yells of gang thugs who don't know where the house is, the mechanism continues to operate, and the ground under Kiel's feet The ground also sloped more and more.

He could no longer stand on his feet. The hard cowhide boots kept pedaling on the ground that was tilted at least sixty degrees, but he could no longer find a place to stand.

Afterwards, Keir could only hang himself on the edge of the gradually expanding hole with his left hand, and kept slashing the edge on the other side of the hole with his right hand. As long as the hole is widened to the extent that he can get through, he can climb up, get through, and give those gang thugs who push the mechanism a hard time.

And the people behind the command.

Gere wants him dead!

Let him be so embarrassed now.

He gritted his teeth and swung the long sword vigorously.

But another opening was opened in the wooden wall on the side of the original passage, and a crossbow protruded from it, aiming at Kiel hanging on the wall.

"Die, lord's dog!"

The person inside said grimly.

Boom!

The crossbow bolts were fired.

-

In the yard of the Yisi Knife Gang.

At this time, the large area around was unable to see anything due to the black smoke emitted by the strange potion.

All the light was absorbed by the smoke, and everyone, including the gang thugs, couldn't see at all. Lubis pinned Fanny to the ground for protection, while shouting loudly for the others who followed him.

Although everyone panicked because of the sudden and strange situation, fortunately, the gang thugs who were **** had never seen such a thing. When everyone was in a daze, nothing bad happened.

"Everyone gather here, I'm Lubis, the baron's personal guard. Come here, be careful of the thugs who are **** under your feet, come here first."

He gathered the other people who jumped down with him. Although he couldn't see them, he approached them and asked in a low voice. He felt relieved that they were all his own.

"Don't worry, everyone. Although this thing is strange, it seems to only affect the line of sight. It won't get in the way." He first appeased the militiamen and guards, and then directed everyone to put away their long weapons, and only used their hands and feet to guard the captured gang thugs.

"Hold on, hold on. The local knight lord outside is still fighting. As long as he is still there, there will be no problem. Hold on, this thing will probably dissipate soon."

Lubis yelled loudly, calming down the nervous crowd, even the gang thugs who were also panicked.

Although being caught by the soldiers seems to have the possibility of being imprisoned and suffering, it seems to be better than dying without knowing why, right?

Therefore, even the thugs of the gang all lay on the ground obediently. Although their mouths were still dirty, at least they would not try to escape at this time.

Lubis whispered to the guard Kayan, telling him to keep an eye on the two special gang leaders, and they must not let them escape.

Because he suspected that the murderer who killed their military merchant before might be among these people.

Ever since he knew that a gang here was led by thieves from the thieves' guild, he had been very skeptical that this case was very likely to be done by the apprentices of the thieves.

After all, ordinary gang thugs seem to be incapable of stealing and killing people, and thieves from the famous Thieves Guild probably have a hard time killing people during theft, unless there is enmity between the two of them.

In this way, it is reasonable to be the local apprentices newly trained by thieves.

He had also confirmed with Fanny before that the murderer was indeed young, only in his twenties.

Outside the house, the Anvina knight was cautiously holding two giant axes for vigilance, and his feet were walking quickly on the spot, making himself keep rotating in place to guard against sneak attacks from all directions.

After fighting against the thief from the Thieves Guild, he realized that the other party was indeed difficult to deal with. It's not that the thief's strength and defense are good, it's simply that the other party's figure is strange, and he often sees his every move in advance.

It was very strange, since the surroundings were full of black smoke that obscured the sight, not only did the other party move silently, but also seemed to have no effect on the sight.

He calmed down and focused his attention on hearing. He didn't believe that the other party could really not make a sound in such a complicated environment around him?

-

Thieves from neighboring countries to the south can really move without making a sound.

The bottom of the boots on his feet had a thick layer of processed leopard pads. This kind of hunter from the forest was often silent in action, relying on the pads on the bottom of the soles that could fully cushion and absorb sound.

The Thieves Guild collects complete forest leopard paws from hunters every year for this special thing. After their special technical processing, the bottom of the sole of this structure will be installed on the bottom of the official thief's boot.

In addition, a special rare tree is also an important part of making him silent.

It is a special plant with thick hairs on the bark of the plant stems. Not only does it not make a sound when it comes into contact with an object, even the place where the plant is located will absorb the sound from the outside world.

The nobles in the south especially like to plant this kind of sound-absorbing plants outside the hidden buildings of their manors, so that no matter what sounds are made in the buildings, it is difficult for the outside world to hear them.

The Thieves Guild managed to obtain the bark treatment method of this plant from the Thieves Brotherhood. It was an ancient method, and it was said that it was a technique used by those ancient assassins a long time ago, even in the ancient magic empire.

Treated plant bark, dyed and sewn on the surface of the official thief's coat. Therefore, whether it is the friction sound of its own movement or the sound of contact with the outside world, it will be eliminated by the special sound-absorbing material outside the clothing.

If it was just silent, the thief hadn't directly challenged an official knight's skills, but thanks to the knight's arrogance and contempt, once the dark potion that obscured his vision was thrown and used, he gained a great advantage at this time.

The knight could neither see him nor hear him.

But he, a seasoned official thief, could tell the knight's every move just by listening to his voice in complete darkness.

Whether it's the opponent's wild ax swing when his vision was just blocked, or the ground gravel spurted by repeated heavy trampling.

All have no effect.

In the former, he boldly walked through the gaps in the opponent's offensive, and a provocation that was beyond the opponent's expectations could greatly damage the knight's spirit and confidence.

In the latter case, he hid behind the gang members who had surrendered not far away, using these guys without loyalty and loyalty as his meat shield, and withstood the attack unscathed.

Now, he took out a dagger that exuded an ominous aura from a tightly protected pocket at his waist.

After holding the handle of the dagger in his hand, he felt a chill from his soul.

This is an assassination weapon made of powerful undead bones. I heard from the companion who bought this thing that six debtors were killed just by sharpening this weapon.

Even if every debtor who had sharpened the weapon in advance only had to sharpen it a few times in a short period of time, it would have killed so many people.

This weapon was honed by several people who died. It is said that the power is much stronger than the original state.

Enduring the stiffness and discomfort from his fingers, he lowered his body excitedly, but he did not pull out the dagger entirely, but was looking for an opportunity to teach this arrogant local knight a lesson he would never forget.

Kill him or not?

Or, just **** his leg?

-

The Anwena knight became more and more angry, but on the surface, he stopped yelling, but fell silent. While listening carefully to even the slightest movement around him, he held the metal ax handles of the two giant axes with both hands. creak.

As if sensing the master's dissatisfaction, the blades of the two giant axes hummed softly.

"Shut up!"

The knight gave a loud shout, and slammed the two giant axes hard.

Chime—Om—

Not only the gang thugs huddled on the ground not far away, but even the local soldiers and Kendalls in the houses on both sides vomited out of the shock of this high-frequency sound.

The Anvina knight under the helmet moved his ears, and he seemed to hear a suppressed vomiting sound coming from a direction that no one knew.

He opened his eyes wide, excited even if he couldn't see it.

"Found you! Kill!"

The knight quickly lowered his knees, then made a small jump, swung the huge ax with both hands, swung it from back to front, and slashed down towards the target.

boom! There was a crackling noise.

The giant ax bombarded the ground, not only blasting the ground into two gaps that could be inserted into the palm of the hand, but also knocking out a large amount of gravel on the ground.

The stone hit the knight's armor with an intense crisp sound, and some of it was even smashed into powder. In other directions, flowers bloomed in all directions. Suddenly, not only gang thugs, but even soldiers around were injured.

"M-hiss."

The thief forcibly swallowed the severe pain down his throat, rolled away from the knight without a sound, then lay down on the ground, took out a small glass bottle from the compact leather pouch on his waist, and put the bottle with the cork directly to his mouth under the mask .

Putting the mouth of the bottle into his mouth, he carefully opened the bottle stopper with mechanism with his teeth and tongue, and then swallowed the medicine into his throat with a small mouthful.

But in a moment, the pain in his body was far away from him.

He actually doesn't like this thing very much, because although this thing can relieve pain and save lives, once it is used, it will permanently reduce his body flexibility.

In order to alleviate this adverse effect, other medicines have to be taken, but the new medicines will bring other side effects.

If the doll continues like this, he has to choose a side effect that he can accept.

Of course, the hidden wounds of the body can be healed by the priests of the church using divine power, but he did not dare to seek help from those churches. Because of the reputation of the Thieves Guild, it is not very good in various churches.

If you send it to your door by yourself, you may be caught and locked up by the church.

The thief took the potion, then gritted his teeth and stood up silently from the ground, his ears quivered twice. He felt that the knight seemed to have found a way to deal with him.

So, it's time to give the other party a vicious one.

The thieves sneaked to the place where the back door of the shop house was connected to the yard. There were a few local soldiers guarding the door, but as the knights blasted the gravel, these soldiers were more or less injured. .

He quietly came to a soldier who was hiding on the ground leaning against the wall. Hearing the soldier's flustered breathing and the various gods coming out of his mouth, the thief silently despised him, then stretched out his hand to cover the soldier's chest mouth, and then with his right hand, he drew out a deadly dagger made of undead bones, and stabbed silently at the soldier's abdomen.

The multi-layered leather jacket worn by the soldiers was useless in resisting the dagger. It was like a hot knife falling into the ice and snow. Then, the entire blade of the dagger went into the poor soldier's belly.

"Woo, woo, woo—"

After two weak struggles, the soldier's aura weakened, and the strange thing was that the entire soldier's body stiffened in one breath, as if he had been dead for a long time.

The rogue drew the dagger, then slipped the weapon back into its sheath as if stung.

He stood up silently and turned around, throwing the death soldier in his hand at the knight viciously.

-

Hearing a sound coming from one side, the Anvina knight turned around and raised an axe.

Contrary to his expectation, it was unlikely that the enemy's ax really hit something this time.

With a pop, the giant ax cut the attacker in half neatly.

He froze for a moment, then put down his axe while being vigilant, and stretched his free hand towards the half of his body at his feet.

Soon, his face darkened, because he easily touched the multi-layered leather jackets issued to his soldiers. This is one of his own soldiers.

"Damn it! You have no guts! Even the most cowardly grass rat on the prairie looks braver than you! This method of humiliating honor not only burns my reputation, but also insults this soldier!!"

The Anvina knight cursed, raised his foot angrily and landed heavily, amidst the rumbling sound of stomping, he was about to kill this guy.

But what responded to the knight was a sinister laughter echoing around.

"Hehehehehehe, isn't this interesting? You can guess who will be next?"

"The same soldiers under your command were pitifully split in two by their master with an axe."

"Or my cowardly surrendered gang? Although they are also your subjects, you can probably go down easily, right?"

The voice fell, and in the dark smoke that could not be seen, there was a deathly silence.

Not only did the two parties no longer make any noise, even the soldiers and thugs held their breath for fear of making any noise and losing their lives in vain.

Deadly silence for a breath? Or because the silence affected everyone's sense of time.

In short, in the tense moment of everyone, another person was thrown at the Anvina knight.

-

Keel here.

When a perforation opened up in the wooden wall of the mechanism blocking the way, Kiel noticed it. He didn't know if the other's crossbow bolts would pierce the hard cowhide full-coverage armor he wore, but Keel didn't dare take that bet.

And in the depths of the trap suspended under his feet, there must be sharp metal thorns waiting for him to fall and enjoy.

At this moment, he thought about it, then let go of his left hand, and at the same time as the attacker shot out the crossbow with a bang, Kiel fell down.

It's not that he's less afraid of the spikes at the bottom of the trap than the crossbow bolts, no.

But at this moment, Keir thought of a way to deal with it.

Duo, the crossbow arrow hit the wooden wall, and the tail of the arrow couldn't help shaking.

The person hiding behind the wooden wall of the mechanism didn't feel sorry, and was even happier, because at this time, the mechanism of this house was designed by him, and it was the best for him to be able to use these mechanisms to kill the enemies who would commit crimes in the future. testimonials.

He didn't go to see the soldier's life and death. He must be dead. He didn't think that ordinary people could resist the metal spikes specially prepared on the ground after falling from a height of several meters.

Even if the opponent puts the shield under his body, it is impossible. He would go in and grind those spikes every time the moon is full. Since they were built, they have been extremely sharp.

Metal shields will pierce a few holes for you.

Click, the man closed the wooden sneak attack hole, turned around and loaded a new crossbow with a bolt. There are still some local soldiers who are stubbornly resisting, and he has to deal with those stubborn guys in the past.

-

boom!

Keir fell at the bottom of the trap~www.mtlnovel.com~ The fall of several meters made him numb all over, and his chest was a little out of breath, but he was not caught by the bottom of the trap as the trap maker expected. Countless metal spikes were pierced through the body.

The reason is very simple. The moment Keir fell into the trap, he instantly entered the dream prepared for him by Ms. Apolfina.

He disappeared in an instant from the outside world, but in the dream, time passed at an extremely slow speed.

Kiel even ate and drank a little in the dream, rested for a while, and then, under the curious onlookers of the goblin, knocked and combined some empty wooden boxes left in the dream into a thick board.

Some waste was filled between the multi-layered wooden boards as a barrier to ensure that it would not be pierced by metal spikes after it hit the ground.

At the same time, Kiel also considered whether he should put on an iron armor to ensure the safety of the next battle.

But after thinking about it again and again, it was still difficult for him to explain to the knight after the battle how he changed from a hard cowhide armor to a full-covering steel armor.

This is not a small problem.

After thinking about it, Kiel still didn't put on the new iron armor, but continued to fight with the old armor that was still protective.

He lay on the thick wooden 'bed', his fingers tightly clasped the wooden 'bed' under him, his body clinging to it, making it count as a whole with himself.

Then with a thought, the magic power flowed.

Keel was back in the air in the shadowy trap pit.

Hoo-bang!

Keel lay on the wooden 'bed' and landed firmly on the bottom of the trap pit.

"Very good, very good, huh, huh." Kiel gasped, then pulled out a torch from behind, then lit it up, illuminating the bottom of the entire trap pit.
