I formed the strongest swordsman group

Did you read yesterday's news?

So much fun! I really want to ask the bodyguards in charge of defending XXXX yesterday: What about your craftsman spirit? Shouldn't you hang your life on the line and show the spirit of "God of Bodyguards" to protect XXXX to the death? Is this the spirit of your craftsman? That's it? ! (This XXXX everyone fills in the blanks by themselves)

In ancient times, Youjing and Yi Naobi were beheaded, but now XXXX is more careful.

It would be even more fun if the assassin from yesterday could shout out "Heavenly Punishment of the Thieves of the Country". In that case, I would like to call him "a man with lofty ideals in the Reihe Era".

Assassinating the dignitaries of one's own country is really a traditional art in Japan. So don't say that Jing Yi Naobi's death is too ridiculous, reality is always more absurd than fiction.

XXXX has a beautiful bodyguard who can kill in 0.2 seconds, still can't stop the assassination, let alone Naosuke Ii?

This ghost-worshiping guy was fucked to death. To celebrate this joy, 10,000 updates will be released today!

Ask for a monthly pass! Ask for a recommendation ticket!

*****

The black shadow with a hole in his forehead, his eyes rolled back, his head fell back as if being pulled by his upturned eyeballs, and the whole person collapsed to the ground.

"Go upstairs!"

Katsu Rintaro held the revolver's chamber with his left index finger, pushed the emptied chamber away, and at the same time passed the knife in his right hand to his mouth, bit the knife with his mouth, and freed his right hand to take it out of his pocket. Fired out orange bullets.

"Yes, yes!" Under Katsu Rintaro's repeated urging, the young man who was still in shock rushed to the stairwell, climbing and rolling.

Quickly reloading the ammunition in the revolver in his hand, Katsu Rintaro handed the knife in his mouth back to his right hand, and strode towards the darkness in front of him.

His revolver was given to him by an American friend when he commanded Xianlin Maru to escort their Japanese envoy to the United States in January.

Colt revolver, as for the specific model, Katsu Rintaro forgot.

Katsu Rintaro has almost never practiced marksmanship, and he has not even fired a few shots with this revolver. He can only be sure to shoot those targets that are close at hand-such as the guy who jumped in front of him just now.

But no matter how he didn't know how to use a pistol, in order to protect the apprentices and staff who were still on the first floor and had not yet had time to escape upstairs, Katsu Rintaro could only bite the bullet.

For Katsu Rintaro, every apprentice and staff member of the Fanshu Institute is a talent who can be equivalent to gold of equal weight!

If those books and manuscripts are gone, there is still a way to get a new set.

If these valuable talents that took a long time to accumulate and cultivate are gone, it will take a long time to make up for this heavy loss.

Katsu Rintaro put the sword in his right hand in front of his body, and his left hand holding the revolver was hidden behind his right arm, walking cautiously in the suffocating darkness.

Suddenly, another black shadow sprang out from Katsu Rintaro's right front!

"Heavenly Punishment—!"

Soi Ying held a knife in the above stance, and slashed at Katsu Rintaro from the top of the road.

Katsu Rintaro snorted coldly, raised the sword in his right hand, and with a sound of "clang", it caught Soi Ying's sword.

These people have red headbands tied on their foreheads, probably for the convenience of distinguishing the enemy from the enemy.

Katsu Rintaro also knows swordsmanship.

At the age of 16, he started to study Zhixinyingliu and achieved very good results.

Until the age of 19 (1841), he watched the Western-style artillery firing and gun formation military exercises held by the gunnery expert Takashima Qiufan, and realized that swordsmanship and the like were completely outdated. Compared with cannons and warships, katana , tantamount to embroidering needles, resolutely chose to give up swordsmanship and study foreign science wholeheartedly.

Although he hasn't practiced swordsmanship for more than ten years, his body and arm muscles still remember how to swing a knife!

The black shadow's knife from the top road has been blocked - this person is now in a state of being completely wide open!

Seeing the opportunity, Rintaro Katsura quickly raised the revolver in his left hand, aimed at the man's open upper body and fired two "bang" and "bang" shots. One bullet pierced his left chest, and one A bullet pierced his stomach.

"Cough, cough cough!" Plenty of blood spewed out from Hei Ying's mouth, and the mouthfuls of blood spurted out by him were mixed with a lot of internal organ fragments.

Katsu Rintaro, who felt the strength of the black shadow sword was greatly reduced, took a deep breath, pushed the black shadow's sword away, and then cut the right hand sword into the upper part, and performed a cassock cut on the black shadow, Cut the shadow to the ground.

Just after finishing an enemy, another black shadow swooped towards Katsu Rintaro from another direction.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"

——Show the flow!

Hearing the cry of the emerging black shadow, Katsu Rintaro immediately judged what genre this person was using like a conditioned reflex.

Only Satsuma's manifestation flow can have such a terrible, piercing cry.

Different schools of swordplay have different styles.

Some schools are good at attacking, some are good at defending, some advocate "don't kill", some can only be used for fitness.

And the showmanship style born in the Satsuma clan is a genre that maximizes the "attack" attribute.

There are two major characteristics of Shixianliu: ape screaming and an offensive style of sacrificing one's life.

"Ape call" is Shi Xianliu's unique vocal technique. The sound is loud and scary. Anyone who is fighting a swordsman with Shi Xianliu for the first time will almost be frightened by the strange sound of ape call.

The modern way of fighting is that when confronting the enemy, first hold the sword high above your right shoulder, and then swing it violently to the lower left, completely ignoring how the opponent will counterattack and how to defend, and don't think too much about yourself. What happens if you miss the hit.

In short, I put my strength, my lifelong learning, and my life on this blow, and it's just right to chop the knife out without risking my life!

Because Shi Xianliu's tactics of disregarding his own wealth and life are too terrifying, so many swordsmen often feel scalp numb and timid after hearing that their opponent is using Shixianliu .

If you are attacking, you will spend a lot of time on weekdays practicing how to swing the knife fiercely and quickly. The display flow has overwhelming strength and speed; if you are separated, the display flow will shoot down your knife in one breath .

Many people who died at the hands of the swordsmen of the Xianxian Liu were parrying their attacks. Because they couldn't block their slashes, their own knives were bounced back to the head by the opponent's attack, knocking themselves out...even the knives Tan was directly embedded in his own skull and lost.

There are several swordsmen who use Shixian in the Kobu Institute. Katsu Rintaro, who is also the professor of artillery at the Kobu Institute, has seen the swordsmanship of those people, so although he has never confronted the swordsmen of Shixian, he is also very familiar with it. There is a certain understanding of current flow.

Katsu Rintaro, who knew he couldn't go head-to-head with the swordsman Shixianliu, quickly jumped back to avoid the slash of the black shadow of Shixianliu.

"Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow ——!”

The black shadow relentlessly pursued Katsu Rintaro who jumped away, and frantically "slashed Huashan", chasing Katsu Rintaro and hacking.

The power of Shixianliu is indeed great, and the sound of "huhuhu" breaking the wind makes Katsu Rintaro feel scalp numb just listening to it. If his head is hit, his head will probably be hit From forehead to throat.

But no matter how powerful the present flow is, can it still be greater than a revolver?

Katsu Rintaro saw the opportunity, pointed the gun at Soi Ying's chest and pulled the trigger twice. One shot missed, and the other hit the center of his chest.

"Hmm...!" The man kept holding the knife high, stopped his movements, and sprayed blood from his mouth and nose.

His fighting will is quite tenacious, he clenched his teeth and tried to continue to rush towards Katsu Rintaro.

Seeing that this person still had enough strength to attack, Katsu Rintaro, who didn't dare to approach this person, raised the muzzle of his gun and pointed it at his head.

boom!

Dahao's head exploded like a watermelon falling to the ground.

Rintaro Katsu pushed the breech of the revolver, reloaded the ammunition, and walked forward.

After painstakingly looking for apprentices and staff, he finally saw a familiar figure at the edge of the corridor not far away.

"Sanada-kun! Sanada-kun!"

Katsu Rintaro quickly ran to Sanada's side to check on Sanada's situation.

Sanada's upper body was cut with a long cut, and the knife edge extended from his left shoulder to his right abdomen. Currently, he is in a state of more intake and less output.

No matter how Katsu Rintaro called him, he closed his eyes tightly and didn't respond at all.

Katsu Rintaro, who knew that Sanada was hopeless, closed his eyes in pain.

At this time, footsteps sounded from Katsu Rintaro's left and right sides at the same time.

"Quick! Over here! There's a tough guy over here!"

"Be careful! This man has Yi Di's short gun!"

...

From the noisy sound, it is the enemy's large army coming!

If he didn't run away quickly, he might have to confess here.

Although he was unwilling and wanted to save as many people as possible, Katsu Rintaro could only grit his teeth and escape towards the stairwell.

The one-armed samurai was leading the large army that came to hunt down Katsu Rintaro.

"Chasing! Catch him!" the one-armed warrior shouted.

Katsu Rintaro, who fled towards the stairwell, turned around and fired two shots at the one-armed samurai and others who were chasing after him.

Rarely saw pistols... or almost never seen pistols, the extermination team members rushed towards the obstacle after seeing Katsu Rintaro shooting.

One of Katsu Rintaro's two shots hit the floor and the other hit the ceiling. Although he didn't hit anyone, his two shots bought him a lot of time to escape.

Taking advantage of the one-armed samurai dodging behind the obstacle, Katsu Rintaro rushed up the stairwell leading upstairs.

After climbing to the top floor in one breath, Katsu Rintaro saw Umegoro standing on the stairs and looking down, holding a makeshift wooden gun.

"Mr. Sheng! You are finally back!"

Seeing the safe and sound Katsu Rintaro, Umegoro let out a sigh of relief with excitement and gratitude.

"How many people have escaped to the roof now?" Katsu Rintaro asked.

"14 people!" Mei Goro replied, "Mr. Sheng, I have made some simple spears according to your instructions, and organized everyone to remove the door and tatami, and set up fortifications on the corridor on the west side of the roof. !"

"14 people..." Katsu Rintaro's face darkened.

In addition to the guards, there are 21 people who stayed in the Fanshu Institute to study or work overtime tonight.

That is to say, there were 7 people who failed to escape to the roof in time.

Now is not the time to be sentimental, Katsu Rintaro quickly cleared up his mood and asked quickly: "How are the fortifications being built? Take me to see!"

"yes!"

Umegoro led Katsu Rintaro to the corridor on the west side of the roof.

Western military science - this is the subject that Katsu Rintaro has studied for more than ten years, and it is Katsu Rintaro's specialty.

After hearing the bursts of abnormal noise from the first floor, Katsurintaro knew that someone was attacking the investigation station, and he immediately gave Umegoro an order: remove the doors, tatami mats, and other parts of the rooms on the top of the building. pieces of furniture and build fortifications on the corridor on the west side of the roof.

As a follower who has served Katsu Rintaro for many years, Umegoro also has a certain understanding of military science under the influence of Katsu Rintaro.

No need for too many instructions from Katsu Rintaro, just a few simple instructions, Umegoro can understand what kind of fortification Katsu Rintaro wants to build.

To put it simply - Katsu Rintaro asked him to build several high walls to stop the enemy. The more high walls, the higher the better.

After following Umegoro to the corridor on the west side of the roof, seeing the fortifications that are now stretching across the corridor, Katsu Rintaro nodded with satisfaction: "Very good... Umegoro, you did a good job."

Mei Goro did a lot better than he imagined.

In such a short period of time, Mei Goro organized the people to build a full three walls, each of which was about 2 meters high. Although they were not particularly strong, they would not fall down if pushed.

The three walls gave them a deep defensive depth. If one wall was lost, they could retreat to the second wall and continue to hold on.

In addition to asking Umegoro to build fortifications, Katsu Rintaro also asked Umegoro to make simple spears.

Umegoro disassembled wooden furniture such as wooden doors and bookshelves, and made four wooden guns with sharpened heads.

These 4 wooden guns are now being held by the 4 strongest apprentices. These 4 people are now guarding behind the first high wall nervously, protruding the gun heads from the top of the high wall. Aim outside the high wall.

"Mr. Katsu, Katsu." Umegoro swallowed hard, then stammered and asked Katsu Rintaro, "What should we do now?"

"Stay here! Wait for the execution office to come to help!" Katsu Rintaro said every word.

"Wait, wait until the people from the enforcement office come to rescue us?" Mei Goro was dumbfounded, "This... If we can't wait for the enforcement office to rescue us, what should we do?"

"...We have no other choice but to stand by and wait for help." Katsu Rintaro looked gloomy, "I can only hope that the people in the enforcement office can find out what happened to us as soon as possible, and then seize the time to send reinforcements to rescue We are."

From the very beginning, Katsu Rintaro asked Umegoro to build fortifications and make wooden guns in order to stand by and wait for help.

The longer the weapon, the more it can make people "leapfrog and fight back".

Even if a person who doesn't understand spear skills at all uses a spear, he can have a chance to forcibly kill a swordsman who has studied sword skills for several years.

As long as you hold a long gun, in this narrow corridor, relying on these simple fortifications, you can completely block the sudden attack of the mob for a period of time.

The outskirts of the Fanshu Institute have been surrounded by these thugs, and they can't escape even if they want to escape.

Except for Katsu Rintaro who has a certain strength, the people who stayed in the investigation station tonight are all pure scholars without any force. If they go head-to-head with the thugs, they are purely courting death.

If you can't fight, you can't escape, then all they can do is stick to it, and then hope that the people in the enforcement office will come to rescue them quickly...

Katsu Rintaro climbed to the back of the first high wall, then took out all the bullets in his arms, and counted the current remaining bullets.

Counting the unfired bullets in the pistol chamber... there are only 11 bullets left...

Katsu Rintaro's already serious expression became even uglier.

...

...

Edo, Kemachi——

"Mr. Orange, no!" Yongcang yelled to Qingdeng who was not far away, "There is nothing left here except fire and burnt wood!"

Fujido, who was standing next to Qingdeng, also immediately shouted to Qingdeng:

"Mr. Orange, step back a little bit! The fire is coming!"

Bear!

As soon as Fujido finished speaking, a few sparks floated towards Qingdeng, and exploded at the front of Qingdeng's nose, causing a faint burning sensation from the tip of his nose.

"Tsk..." Looking at the growing fire in front of him, Qing Deng couldn't help but smacked his lips.

Suspecting that the sudden fire was arson, the reason why he hurriedly led Yongcang and the others to the fire scene in Keycho was to see if he could catch one or two sneaky suspicious people around the fire scene.

However, I don't know if it was because they came late, when they rushed to the periphery of the fire scene, they couldn't find anything except the raging flames and the charred houses.

The place where the fire started was a small commercial street in Keycho.

Tonight is a calm day, without the blessing of the wind, the speed of the fire spread is not fast. When Qingdeng and the others rushed to the periphery of the fire scene, only 4 shops were engulfed by the flames.

"Mr. Tachibana! Mr. Tachibana! I'm here to bring the firefighter!"

Suddenly, the voice of Harada, who was sent by Qingdeng to notify the town fire department to put out the fire, sounded from behind Qingdeng.

Qing Deng quickly followed the sound and raised his eyes, then frowned.

There were only about 30 town firefighters following Harada.

"Why are there so few people here?" Qing Deng asked loudly.

Before Harada could answer, a middle-aged man running behind Harada's side, who seemed to be at the captain's level, answered with a bitter face:

"We are seriously short of manpower right now! Not only is Key Town on fire, but also Pan Town, Tsuki Town, Nishiyama Town... In short, many cities and towns are on fire now! We can't spare more manpower to fight the fire!"

——It’s not just Kemachi that’s on fire?

Qing Deng was startled, and then his face darkened.

——This fire is really weird!

If it is said that only one place caught fire, it can also be explained as "this is the season when fires are prone to fire", or it is a coincidence.

But so many places were on fire at the same time...it can't be explained by the word "coincidence" alone!

It has been determined that these fires were all man-made, but there is still a lot of fog trapped in Qing Deng's mind.

Information is still too lacking.

Were these fire incidents done by people from the Yi group?

Why set fires everywhere? Is it trying to divert our attention and energy, so that we have no time to take care of other things?

If the arson was just a cover for them... then what was their real purpose?

Do you want to ask your boss for instructions on how to act now?

...

Qingdeng frowned, thinking about what to do next.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Qingdeng suddenly heard a "cracking" sound coming from behind him...

This sound... a bit like the sound of running on a wooden corridor.

But the problem is that Qingdeng is now outdoors, not indoors... Where does this strange sound of running on the wooden corridor come from...?

Before Qingdeng had time to turn his head back to check what was going on with the strange sound, the strange "sound of running in the wooden corridor" stopped abruptly.

Immediately afterwards, a neutral, low-pitched voice that could not be identified as male or female sounded from the direction where the running sound stopped—

"Juqingdeng! Catch it!"

...

...

Edo, Fanshu Institute——

Kanno stepped on the steps of the stairs slowly and walked towards the top floor of the police station. At the same time, he asked the one-armed samurai beside him expressionlessly:

"That is to say... the people who are still alive are now hiding on the top floor?"

The one-armed warrior with a gloomy face nodded: "The first and second floors have been cleared."

"The people who are still alive are now gathered in a corridor on the west side of the top floor."

"They built three walls with doors, tatami mats, and furniture, and made a few wooden guns. Depending on the situation, they planned to stick to that corridor."

"There is only one entrance and exit in that corridor. I have sent people to block the only entrance and exit. If they want to escape, they can only jump through the window of the corridor."

"But if they want to escape by jumping out of the window, there will be an 'encirclement team' responsible for encircling the perimeter of the investigation station waiting for them."

"That Katsu Rintaro has Yidi's short gun. In order to minimize the loss, I asked someone to find an iron product that is big enough to be used as a shield."

Kanno nodded: "Well, you did a good job."

After simply praising the one-armed samurai, Kanno sneered.

"It's a surprise that Katsu Rintaro is here..."

The goal of Shenye and the others tonight is very simple: to destroy this bookstore that disgusts them and gathers a large number of "traitors".

Kanno never expected that that Katsu Rintaro happened to be in the Fanshu Institute tonight.

The unexpected joy that comes to your door like this can't be let go.

Anyway, a "traitor" like Katsu Rintaro with a very bad style is also one of the must-kill targets of their barbarian group. Since we met tonight, let's kill him as well!

Under the guidance of the one-armed samurai, Kanno came to the highest level of the police station, outside the corridor where Katsu Rintaro and others were guarding.

The extermination team members responsible for blocking this corridor are now hiding behind the walls on the east and west sides outside the corridor entrance, hiding in places where Katsu Rintaro's bullets cannot hit.

Standing sideways behind the west wall outside the entrance of the corridor, Shenye poked half of his head out of the wall and looked into the corridor.

In the corridor, Katsu Rintaro with a revolver, together with apprentices and staff holding various weapons, hid behind the first wall.

After spotting Kanno who was looking towards them, Katsu Rintaro immediately raised the revolver in his hand and pointed it at Kanno.

Kanno quickly retracted his head behind the wall.

"It seems that only Katsu Rintaro has a short gun." Kano said indifferently, "As long as we can get rid of Katsu Rintaro, the rest will be no longer a threat."

"Mr. Kanno, why don't we just light the fire and burn Katsu Rintaro and the others to death together with this dispensary. We should have almost spread the fire oil."

Under Shenye's dispatch, the troops attacking the research station were divided into two groups, one group was responsible for killing all living creatures in the research station, and the other group was responsible for spreading kerosene everywhere, preparing to destroy the book transfer station afterwards. Give a fire to a white ground.

The unremitting efforts of the "kerosene team" successfully filled the air on the first and second floors of the research station with an unpleasant smell of kerosene.

"No." Kanno retorted without thinking, "If you set fire to them to death, wait for the flames to burn slowly, the speed is too slow."

"Although the attention of the enforcement office has been sucked away by the random fires we set in various cities and towns in Edo, for the sake of safety, we can still kill these traitors as quickly as possible."

"So we still have to attack."

As soon as Kanno finished speaking, he saw several team members rushing towards them holding several thick wooden planks.

"I can't find any iron products that can be used to make shields! The only large iron tool here is an iron pot. We only found a few large wooden boards!"

"Wooden board?" The one-armed warrior frowned, his expression becoming ugly.

Judging from the power of the pistol used by Katsu Rintaro that he himself witnessed just now... It is impossible for a board of this thickness to block the bullets of Katsu Rintaro's revolver...

Kanno beside him spoke at this moment:

"Wooden board... that's okay, even if it can't stop the bullets from the short gun, it can still be used to block the sight of that Katsu Rintaro."

After all, Kanno took a piece of wood.

Seeing this movement of Kanno, the one-armed samurai was startled:

"Mr. Kanno, are you planning to lead the attack yourself?"

"This is a good opportunity to accumulate the experience of 'how to fight against enemies who use Yidi short guns'." Shenye smiled, "I want to see how powerful this Yidi short gun is."

"I will lead the team myself! You follow me!"

The one-armed samurai wanted to persuade Shenye to stay in a safe place and not to risk his life at the forefront of danger, but his dissuasion had no effect. Kill Katsu Rintaro and others.

"Follow me!"

With a large wooden board in his left hand and a knife in his right hand, Kanno rushed to the front of the queue in cooperation with two other team members who were also holding large wooden boards walking on his left and right sides.

This corridor was not too wide, so Kanno and his team members on the left and right put together the large wooden boards in their respective hands, and the three large wooden boards just formed a "high wall" that could cover the entire corridor.

Kanno, the one-armed samurai and the others hid behind this "high wall", and rushed towards the first fortification of Katsu Rintaro and others with overwhelming momentum!

"Watch out! They're coming!"

Seeing the enemies rushing over, Katsu Rintaro hurriedly shouted a warning, and at the same time raised the muzzle of his gun, ready to shoot.

It is true that the wooden board cannot block the bullets of the revolver, but it can block Katsu Rintaro's line of sight.

Kanno and the others hid behind the board, making Katsu Rintaro unable to discern the number and position of the enemies, so he could only shoot blindly at the board.

boom! boom! boom! boom……

The rapid pistol shots rang out, forming an overwhelming sound barrier.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!" Howl.

As soon as he fell down, someone running behind him quickly stepped forward to take his place, picked up his wooden plank, and continued to charge forward together with Shenye.

The "reform within the group" carried out by Shenye in the past two months has been very effective.

After eliminating some people who were not strong enough in fighting will and belief in fighting barbarians, although the size of the barbarian group has been reduced a lot compared to before, those who can still stay in the barbarian group are undoubtedly those who have the same will and belief. A determined person who is not easily intimidated by death.

From the corridor where Kanno and the others hid, to the first fortification built by Katsu Rintaro and others, the distance is only less than 10 meters.

Such a short distance can be leaped quickly!

Katsu Rintaro only had time to fire 4 shots, and Kanno and the others rushed to the front of the first fortification!

Out of the 4 shots fired by Katsu Rintaro just now, 2 shots missed, and only 2 shots successfully hit the 2 members of the barbarians.

Kanno was very lucky - he was obviously the first to charge, but all the bullets flew past him.

"Push them out!" Katsu Rintaro continued to shoot with his gun, and at the same time, he gave an order to the "pikemen" holding wooden guns, telling them to use the long guns with their superior length to push back the attacking enemies, and don't let the enemies get close to them.

The "Pikemen" responded quickly and their fighting spirit was remarkable.

But the number of long guns is still too small.

Moreover, these "long gunners" were just a bunch of weak scholars and researchers as of now, and they didn't know how to use long guns at all.

"Quick! Grab the wooden spears stabbed by these people, and don't let them take them back!" Shen Ye shouted.

The members of the barbarian group raised their big hands one after another, grabbed the wooden spears stabbed at them by the "pikemen", and then launched a "tug of war" to snatch Katsu Rintaro's wooden spears.

Due to their weak combat ability, Katsu Rintaro and the others quickly lost two of their wooden spears.

After Katsu Rintaro emptied the remaining bullets in the barrel, he quickly pushed the barrel away and prepared to reload.

Kanno keenly sensed that Katsu Rintaro's shooting had stopped, and concluded that Katsu Rintaro should be loading the ammunition now, so he seized this opportunity and shouted:

"Follow me! Knock it away!"

Kanno put all his body weight on the board in his hand, and slammed into the fortification made of tatami mats and furniture in front of him.

"Come on!"

"Follow Mr. Kanno!"

Kanno's personal leadership and heroic demeanor boosted the morale of the barbarian group, and they all used their bodies or weapons to slam into the front wall.

Under repeated "bombardment" by Kanno and others, Katsurintaro's simple fortification suddenly crumbled...

Seeing that the first wall could not be defended, Katsu Rintaro could only order: "Everyone retreat! Get behind the second wall!"

Katsu Rintaro and the others hurriedly fled behind the second wall.

The first wall was breached so quickly—this was unexpected by Katsu Rintaro.

The fighting power and fighting will of the incoming enemy exceeded Katsu Rintaro's expectations.

Although they still have two walls available, and they can block the enemy twice more, but with such a powerful enemy, the time these two walls can delay is quite limited...

The look on Katsu Rintaro's face became heavy uncontrollably.

Mei Goro and others, their faces were also so dark that it seemed that black water was about to drip, and very few people had even begun to show despair between their brows.

They all knew—they might not be able to wait for reinforcements from the execution office...

...

...

At this very moment—

Outside the Fanshu Research Office——

The "offensive team" in charge of attacking the research center is now fighting with Katsu Rintaro with Kanno in full swing.

The "encirclement team" responsible for encircling the Fanshu Institute is quite leisurely now.

After all, their task is only to ensure that no fish that slips through the net escapes from the Fanshu Research Institute, and to prevent anyone from approaching the Research Institute.

On this street, there are many townspeople who were alarmed by the movement of the fire and dragged their families along to prepare to flee to a safe place.

So many people dressed as samurai are surrounding this bookstore with a murderous look... Seeing this scene, the townspeople are vaguely aware of what is going on...

But they didn't dare to control it, and they didn't even dare to approach it.

Fearing that they would be killed, the townspeople pretended they hadn't seen or heard anything, and walked around Fanshudiao.

In this way, a strange "no-man's belt" was formed around the Fanshu Research Institute, except for the members of the barbarian group, there was no one else.

"Mr. Kanno, why haven't they come out yet?"

"I've been hearing gunshots since just now..."

"Mr. Kanno and the others shouldn't have any accidents now..."

"Shh! Don't talk nonsense!"

...

The trivial conversations and breathing sounds of the members of the "encirclement team" are the only sounds in this "no man's belt".

But suddenly, their tranquility was broken by bursts of strange noises.

This strange sound is constantly approaching "No Man's Belt" from afar.

When the strange sound got closer to them, the people of the "siege team" gradually realized that the strange sound was the footsteps of someone running fast.

They quickly raised their heads in the direction of the sound.

I saw them at the intersection on the east side, and there were 5 black shadows shaking.

Due to the distance and the poor light at night, the members of the "encirclement team" couldn't see the appearance of these five shadows clearly.

These 5 black images and 5 off-string arrows rushed straight towards them!

"Someone is approaching!"

"stop!"

"Who?! Stop!"

...

The members of the "encirclement team" quickly drew out their knives and loudly warned.

Just as the team members had just pulled out their knives, the black shadow rushing to the front suddenly accelerated!

If the speed of this black shadow just now was an arrow from the string, then his current speed is the shell flying out of the barrel!

Sprinting, leaping - the black shadow completed the pounce in one go, like a tiger descending a mountain, leaping towards a team member with opposite buck teeth.

While jumping towards the buck-tooth, Soi Ying used his left hand to pull out a ten-hand with red tassels tied around his right waist.

With the momentum of the forward rush and leap, the tip of the ten hands ruthlessly hit the man with the buck teeth, directly breaking his two buck teeth.

With ten hands remaining unabated, the tip pushed into the mouth of the buck tooth, flying the buck tooth backwards.

Bucktooth flew backwards and bumped into a short man behind him heavily. The two hugged each other and ate dog shit together.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!"

His screams completely shattered the silence of this "no man's belt"!
