Lord of War

122. King of the Night

The situation in the wild land has gotten a little out of control.

Whether it's Sean's side, the chamber of commerce alliance's side, or Billy, the deputy head of the Great Rift Valley who's been chasing after him deeply. Of course, the biggest loss should be considered the Great Rift Valley area, because three trade points here have been completely looted and one trade point has been completely destroyed, and the most frightening thing is that the cavalry unit is still in the Great Rift Valley like a wandering spirit. The Rift Valley is wandering everywhere, and no one has a way to determine their specific itinerary.

In other words, even if there is a way, no one will try to determine the exact location of this army.

Because in order to keep their whereabouts secret, any team that encountered Reina, whether it was a slave team, a free man, or a caravan, was all attacked and looted. However, in this near-dangerous situation, none of the other eight trade points in the Great Rift Valley dared to send troops out to intercept Ruina's cavalry, and even ignored many distress signals. They were really worried It gave Xiao En an excuse to dispatch the army under his command.

In an instant, countless slave hunting teams left the Great Rift Valley one after another; and those caravans also did not dare to pass through the Great Rift Valley.

However, at such an urgent moment, the head of the Great Rift Valley was nowhere to be seen, which made many interested people have to guess the specific situation. But no matter how you say it, the Great Rift Valley has completely lost its old dominance and dominance at this moment. To put it seriously, the snake route has completely lost its meaning of existence at this moment.

...

There was a rumbling sound, and dust was flying all over the sky.

Even if it is one kilometer away, you can still feel the movement of the ground shaking at this moment.

What a terrible power at this time.

Among the dust flying all over the sky, there are countless tall black shadows swaying in it. Because of the occlusion of the sand and dust, the line of sight does not seem to be very real. It seems that the black shadows in the sand and dust seem to be centaurs.

call.

A strong wind suddenly blew in the face. The dust and mist were blown away a lot.

That's when everything seemed a little more real.

This force is not a centaur, but a group of human cavalry.

Suddenly, the leading cavalryman pulled the reins suddenly, and the horse under his crotch neighed and stood up. However, the owner sitting on the horse was not overturned because of the violent movement of the horse, but leaned slightly, and the man who cooperated with the horse immediately adjusted his posture, and the hood and cloak on his body were hunting under the strong wind. , but the hood was not blown over. The spear held in his right hand didn't tremble the slightest during this process.

As the leading cavalry stood up, the group of cavalry behind them also neighed a series of horses, but the horses that were drawn to stand up because of the excessive force of the cavalry on horseback did not not much.

The front hooves of the war horse landed.

The cavalryman on horseback could see his head shaking from side to side, as if scanning everything around him.

After a few seconds. Only then did the voice sound: "Everyone rests on the spot for 30 minutes and is not allowed to dismount."

Listening to the voice, the leading cavalry was actually a woman!

But what is very subtle is that all the cavalry did not hesitate in the slightest to the woman's order, and soon there was a rustling sound behind her: some people started to drink water, some people started to eat dry food, and some people started to eat dry food. Others moved their buttocks a little to make themselves more comfortable. However, more people took advantage of the break during this meeting,

Take out the water bag and pour it on the horse's neck to cool down the horse.

"My lord." A cavalryman lightly pulled the reins, and the horse moved forward slowly. Approaching the side of the female cavalryman, "Why don't we go deep into the wild land together, but go around here?... Now these trade points are afraid to fight us, but when the troops are ready and there are The trading point where the gold powerhouse sits. We can't attack it, what are we doing now?"

"Harassment." The cavalryman who spoke. Naturally, it is Rui Na, the sharpshooter knight. "Of course, you have to understand it as military training or anything else. Anyway, our actions are based on Lord William's instructions."

When he heard the name "William", the cavalryman who asked the question immediately became respectful, which was a kind of respect from the heart.

He was fortunate to follow William as a veteran in military activities in the Yida Territory, so he was deeply impressed by William's lightning-like thunder tactics, and that battle was also the most miraculous battle he had ever fought. The battle between the two sides was not like a war at all, but like a performance rehearsed according to the script. Although there were indeed some people who died in the battle, the enemy suffered the most deaths, and they just followed William's orders and arrangements. It is easy to remove all the enemy's tactical arrangements one by one.

This was really the most miraculous battle he felt, as if as long as he obeyed William's arrangement and command, there would be absolutely no reason to lose.

So after hearing Reina say that it was William's arrangement, the cavalry immediately understood.

As for what he understood, he didn't even know himself. He only knew that since it was Lord William's arrangement, it would be right to obey.

Only Rena's eyes kept flickering, and she seemed to vaguely understand and understand William's arrangement.

But no matter what, Rui Na is extremely satisfied with the current situation. Even though there are less than 400 cavalry left under her command due to successive battles, everyone exudes a sense of terror. There was a bloody breath, just like what Rena had seen on Clover's troops before. But she is very clear that her cavalry unit is still not comparable to Clover's army that is almost death-like, but she believes that her troop will definitely become the so-called "Sisi army" like Clover's army in a short time. Just like Lia's Guards", she has an aura that makes people flustered just by seeing it.

Of course, Rui Na is more satisfied with herself.

She always feels that she is about to break through the current limit, because the recent successive battles have made her more and more sensitive, and her perception and judgment of breath are also quite accurate. Often times, she does not even need to send scouts, You can know whether there is an ambush ahead.

Ruina knew that she would officially enter the Golden Realm soon.

If she really steps into the Golden Realm before her return, then she will be after Sefanio. Sean's second gold-level powerhouse.

Let's try to find some prey to hone.

Ruina thought so, her eyes became sharper unknowingly: I really want to go deep into the wild land to have a look.

...

The Void City in Pandaland is one of the two cities in Sean's territory.

The other one is located in the territory of Date, which used to be the old nest of the Michelin family, and it was also the territory that Ruud Michelin's father had managed all his life. But now, not only has this territory changed hands, even Ruud Michelin, the former Viscount of the Darbion Kingdom, has deserted his country. Take refuge in Sean's command. The Dabion Kingdom was naturally furious about this, but after sending more than a dozen assassins to attack and assassinate them in succession, the Dabion Kingdom could only acquiesce to this fact.

It's just that the Michelin family is now notorious in the Kingdom of Darbion, and many industries have been established in various places in the Kingdom of Darbion in order to subsidize the expenses of the territory. All are now blocked. But all of this is meaningless to Ruud Michelin today.

He is now the lord of the Void City, and even the acting lord of the Panda Land.

In the entire administrative system under Sean's command, besides Neil, he has the greatest authority.

Regarding the original decision to surrender to Sean, Rude's mood is still somewhat complicated. But if you regret it, maybe you don't. He knew very well that if he hadn't surrendered at the beginning, then he and his family would really have nothing—after returning to the kingdom. As a defeated general, and his connections are not particularly good, it is difficult for him to get a reward for another territory, and in the end there are only two ways to go. Either become the internal affairs officer of another lord, or he can only find a way to make a living in the king's capital.

but now. The territory managed by his father's generation is still there, but it has just changed hands, and Xiao En also promised him that as soon as he becomes an official nobleman, he will be bestowed with a title immediately, and nothing that should be given at that time will be different. It will be less, he can take back Yida Territory again, and it doesn't matter if he wants other territories under Sean's command. It is precisely because of such a proposal that Rude will choose to surrender. And what makes Rude the happiest is that all the parasites of the Michelin family will be completely eliminated in this turmoil—except for the list he handed over to Neil, the rest of the Michelin family will be wiped out. Exile, if they don't leave at all, what awaits them is bloody suppression.

Rude slowly took off his glasses, pinched his tired brows, and looked away from the classics on the table, and glanced at the window not far from him.

Moonlight spilled through the window, reflecting a silver light on the ground.

The breeze blew up, blowing up the gauze scarf on the window, which looked a little beautiful.

For some reason, Rude suddenly thought of the beautiful figure in his dream, and felt a little sigh in his heart, maybe the distance between himself and her was gradually getting farther. This is the reason why Rude's mood is very subtle and complicated. He likes that girl, or he has fallen in love with this girl the moment he saw her, but fate made a big joke for him. There was already a gap in status between himself and her, but when he finally made up his mind to become a powerful person regardless of everything, he encountered the current situation.

In the face of love and family, Rude finally succumbed to reality.

He may be able to see her again when he returns to the Kingdom of Dabion, but she is destined to never have her, and even the entire Michelin family will decline completely; but if he chooses Sean, he still has a chance to make a comeback, even though The distance from her will become more and more distant, but maybe there is still a chance to have her.

Under the circumstances of multiple worries, Rude had no choice but also dared not to accept the olive branch thrown by Sean.

After being in a daze for a moment, Rude suddenly came back to his senses, and smiled self-deprecatingly: "I'm afraid, she can't wait until I become famous."

At this moment, a cold wind suddenly blew up.

Rude shivered suddenly, as if he had fallen into an ice cave. The strong sense of fear even made it difficult for him to breathe, and his face soon turned red. It felt like someone was strangling Rude's throat, trying to suffocate him to death.

"Cough cough."

There was a light cough.

The feeling of fear and suffocation in the room that was so heavy that Rude couldn't breathe was instantly broken.

Rude let out a series of coughing sounds, and his whole body, who was originally sitting on the chair, seemed to be fished out of the water at this moment, and his whole body was soaked. And his face was also pale as if he had been seriously ill, and his chest and abdomen heaved very violently. The sound of gulping breath was clearly audible in this quiet room, accompanied by a violent cough from time to time, but Rude's cough was completely different from the first light cough.

A figure walked out of the shadows in the room.

In an instant, all the candles that had been lit in the room were extinguished.

Rude's face became even paler, and there was deep horror in his eyes.

A cold glow lit up.

Reflected in Rude's eyes, it was an unprecedented blue light.

This blue light, with a sense of suffocation and death, became bigger and bigger in Rude's pupils, and it seemed that it would completely penetrate Rude's eyebrows in the next moment.

But at this moment. The blue light in midair suddenly deflected.

From right to left.

The blue brilliance drew a majestic imprint, and strands of cold air radiated in the air, and these cold air soon intertwined a blue net in midair. But if you look carefully, you can find that the blue net is actually made of countless sword shadows intertwined, and that huge sword energy soars into the sky. The ground and roof near the blue net were all torn into countless criss-cross grooves.

Sand and stone rustled down.

A black light and shadow pierced through the air, hit the blue net, and a burst of abundant aura burst out, but it seemed miraculously without any destructive power. Aside from being a bit messy, there isn't any damage.

The ground and the roof are still nothing but the groove marks left by the sword qi.

only. When the blue net and the black shadow collided with each other, the sword energy emitted by the blue net was completely shaken and disappeared. And in the dark environment, there was even a muffled sound, which was very close to Rude. It sounded like it was clearly the injury of the man who wanted to assassinate Rudd Killer, not the man who cast Shadow Crash.

"Boom".

There was a roaring sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, and the terrifying thing was that with the sound, the house did not shake at all even under the environment of sword aura. But because of this, there was a strong shaking, like an earthquake. Countless sand and stones fell down one after another. All of a sudden, several horrible-looking cracks appeared on both the ground and the roof, and the ground was covered with a layer of gray sand because of this.

The look of horror in Rude's eyes almost reached the limit of his mental strength.

This five-storey city lord's mansion built with special materials seemed to collapse at any moment under the sound of the heavy sound.

How can this be!

Rude looked to the left, where the person who tried to assassinate him finally showed his figure because of the falling of the gray sand.

It was a middle-aged man in a white dress. His appearance was very handsome, and he possessed a mature charm and temperament that ordinary men do not have. From these aspects, this assassin must be the kind of person with real status Rude guessed that the other party might still be a powerful nobleman. Because even at this moment, the middle-aged man was a little ashamed by the dust, but his elegant temperament was not damaged at all, and his temperament was even more special because of being a strong man.

If Billy, the deputy head of the Great Rift Valley District, was here, he would be able to recognize at a glance that the middle-aged man in front of him was the head of their Great Rift Valley District!

The district chief didn't go to see Rude. In his eyes, Rude was no different from a dead person. He came to kill Rude this time. Originally, his goal was to check the situation of the lord Sean's territory, and if possible, kill William and Alfred, the most powerful men under Sean's command, but before he could finish these things , he received a secret contact from the Pancontinental Chamber of Commerce Alliance, informing him of the current situation in the Great Rift Valley.

At that time, the regional chief distorted his face on the spot because of anger.

Especially when he heard that the Pan-Continental Chamber of Commerce sent an envoy to negotiate with Xiao En, he felt a great humiliation. However, at this time, the Pan-Continental Chamber of Commerce also issued an order requiring him to assassinate Neil, who will represent Sean in the negotiations this time, because according to the investigation of the Pan-Continental Chamber of Commerce, as long as Neil is dead, Then Sean's side doesn't have any qualified and outstanding internal affairs officers, and the negotiation work will give their Pangea Chamber of Commerce an absolute advantage.

But what he didn't expect was that Neil was in Yida at the moment, and he rushed towards the Void City after receiving the news, so the district chief who didn't know the situation naturally still couldn't make it after wandering for three days. find the target. And just when he was about to contact the Pancontinental Chamber of Commerce for the latest information, he received a message from his loyal family asking him to kill Rude, the traitor of the Dabion Kingdom.

It is precisely because of this that the regional chief will appear here.

It's just that he didn't expect that Rude, the traitor of the Dabion Kingdom, would have such a powerful guard beside him, which was a bit beyond his expectations.

At this moment, the gaze of this mature and charismatic head of the Great Rift Valley was falling on the object that made a heavy sound after falling to the ground.

But when he saw this thing clearly, his pupils shrank suddenly.

Because it was actually a coffin!

Almost at this moment, a cold aura spread all over his body, that feeling was like being targeted by a deadly natural enemy. In an instant, this powerful district chief was enveloped by a sense of death with cold hands and feet, and his mind was torn apart.

This time, he finally realized how strong and terrifying the fear he had created for Rude just now was!

PS: Originally the title should have been "Assassins from the Wild and Kings from the Darkness", but the title was obviously too long, so I changed it. ... 5K chapters, it can be regarded as a medium-sized chapter. Well, that's it.
