Sherlock Holmes

Chapter 228 The sound of horse hooves

"Bang, bang, bang!" A series of gunshots came out suddenly, shaking the minds of the people around them!

But even with such marksmanship, which has been honed for countless years on the battlefield, it is still not faster than Sherlock's reaction, nor faster than the speed of Watson and Hopkins. At this moment, the three people moved sideways, all of them After the shelter was taken down, no one was injured.

However, the calm lake surface caused a stone to stir up a thousand waves, and a bullet broke the nerves that were always tense.

There was the first gunshot, then there was the second and the third.

"Fire!!"

In this moment of intertwined light and darkness, the soldiers had no time to think about what was happening. There was gunfire, and there was fighting. They just heard an order, and the finger hanging in front of the trigger suddenly clenched tightly. Suddenly, countless people The sound of the gun exploded in this confined space, and the flames ejected from the muzzle instantly changed the light of the gas lamp, making the shadows of everything around it flash like a group of demons dancing.

It was at this moment that the steam armor pilots who had already lined up behind the crowd also pressed the red fire button. Suddenly, the roar of the rotating machine gun raised the sound to a higher level again, and flames of various colors appeared. Intertwined with each other, countless metal bullets began to hit and fly between the walls of the tunnel!

Sherlock and the others were hiding behind a row of concrete roadblocks. Stray bullets were flying around them, and the roadblock behind them was blasted with countless sharp cement fragments.

Directly give the order to shoot.

This crazy behavior undoubtedly had some kind of tacit approval. In other words, after this shot, the forces under Emperor Augustine began to completely break up!

But calculating the time, it should be almost the same. In more than half a month, the Empire Heritage Ceremony will begin. Even the homeless people sleeping in bridge holes on the street know the principle of winner takes all, so at this time, shame is used. Come to tear it apart.

So, amidst the roaring gunshots and flying shrapnel, the three of them looked at each other.

"On the premise of a ceasefire, try to kill as few people as possible." Hopkins finally said helplessly.

Before he finished speaking, Sherlock and Watson rushed out of the bunker without saying a word!

A crack in the void appeared behind the group of heavily armed soldiers.

Then, it slowly closed again.

It seemed that this group of people had already filled the tunnel with demon sedatives in advance, which was considered normal operation. Since they had military backgrounds and knew that their opponents were contractors, they must have prepared a large amount of demon sedatives in advance.

Fortunately, Sherlock didn't care about this. The gravel beneath his feet trampled on him like a beast, spanning an extremely exaggerated distance, and instantly jumped out of the fire blockade. Then a shadow shook up the dirt, and flew at an extremely fast speed. With great speed, he ran diagonally up the arc-shaped dome of the tunnel.

It’s hard to imagine how this scene happened. Anyway, a black shadow used speed to escape the shackles of gravity, spinning in an incredible arc above the tunnel, and came directly above the heads of the crowd, and then Crash to the ground!

Who would have thought that a human being could move in this way, so at that moment, no one raised their gun and fired overhead. After this brief hesitation, everything was already too late.

The target fell into the crowd. Naturally, these soldiers could not be like the group of protective guards who shot at the crowd regardless. So the next second, those soldiers were instantly lost in various ways. Some of the combatants were kicked backwards and hit the tunnel wall unconscious, some were lifted into the air, and some were slapped on the ground and could not get up again, and those The long spear with a hot muzzle was snapped off by Sherlock with a click!

That's not all. During this process, Sherlock used the cover of the flying crowd to rush into the space between the mechas like a ghost. After seeing such bulky guys several times, he didn't bother to pay attention to them. The driver directly inserted his bare hands into the exhaust pipe that was spewing hot heat, grabbed the roaring steam turbine, and pulled it out along the exhaust pipe.

Because it is for heat dissipation, the position of the turbine is close to the heat dissipation pipe, so you don't have to bother to tear off the outer layer of protection. I really don't know what the old guys from the mechanical institute will think when they see this scene. Thoughts.

In short, the firepower output that covered almost the entire cross-section of the tunnel with a hail of bullets disintegrated in just a few moments, leaving only a few soldiers on the ground wailing and unable to get up.

As for Watson, he did not single out a squadron like Sherlock, but quietly disappeared into the shadow of the gas lamps damaged by bullets. When Sherlock was dismantling the turbine, his pair of white and slender hands came from the The middle-aged man's figure slowly emerged from the darkness, and a bright scalpel was pressed against his throat.

"Tell your people to stop." He said calmly.

"." The elder said nothing.

The next second, a cold light flashed, and he felt his fingers become cold, and the hand that was about to quietly pull the trigger felt a strange sense of failure.

It wasn't until a fatal pain shot down his arm to his forehead that he finally realized that his finger had been cut off.

“Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh”

In order for the military order to go deep into a lifeless battle without hesitation, and for the children to abandon their own conscience regardless of the consequences, but after all, they could not bear the sudden pain of severed fingers.

So amid the wailing all around, he suddenly burst out into the most ferocious roar, causing countless eyes to look in his direction.

The gun in the middle-aged officer's hand fell to the ground. The severe pain made him tremble all over and sweat profusely, but he still gritted his teeth and ignored the blade on his throat that had penetrated into his skin:

"Oh, it's already too late. There are so many people lying here. Do you think you can escape unscathed?"

"Don't you think it's shameful to lead your own subordinates and use such unsightly tactics?" Watson said calmly.

"Of course it's shameless, but it's worth it." The middle-aged man said with a smile. Because the pain made his voice start to tremble, he simply stopped talking and raised his neck. The meaning was obvious, that he was waiting for the other party to stab him to death. , if that's the case, just the act of killing people in front of so many imperial soldiers, regardless of whether they are guilty or not, should be enough to send these people to a military court to await trial.

This scene seems long, but from the sound of the gunshot to this moment, only more than a minute has passed. The dense footsteps in the distance are getting closer and closer, and the team that has just arrived to add more people has no idea What happened was that they saw a mess and wailing all over the place, and the person in charge of this task was being held hostage by a man.

Without thinking, a series of sounds of bullets being loaded sounded. In this confined space, it seemed so absurd and helpless.

Do you want to kill a few more people?

And just then.

"Da~da~da~"

There was a sound that was neither urgent nor slow, but it definitely shouldn't be here.

It was the sound of horse hooves trampling on the concrete pavement and the pleasant sound of the brass pendant colliding.

As these sounds slowly came closer, a white carriage appeared in the shadows at the end of the tunnel. Next to the carriage, there seemed to be two rows of accompanying teams, shadowy and shadowy, walking towards this side.
