Chapter Forty-Nine: One Man's Resistance
"Whew, whew......" The summer rain washed away the heat and brought a trace of coolness. The inhabitants of the city may rejoice at this, but the girl who is panting and running on the courtyard avenue at this moment does not think so.
"Alright, Kloss, let's leave the Circumferential Path." The female officer beside the violet-haired girl said softly, but her eyes looked around like a sharp bird of prey, "Just rush into the royal capital along the avenue." Don't worry......" Looking at the girl's worried eyes, the female officer pretended to be confident and said: "My subordinates have done some camouflage actions in advance, and the other party's vigilance has become relatively weak. Besides, if you're dressed like this, you shouldn't be noticed until you reach the guild. β
"I see." Hearing this, the girl's tense face relaxed slightly, but she suddenly remembered something: "Ah! What about you! Yulia? β
"I'm here to stop the enemy. It can't be held out for too long, but it should be enough. β
"How so...... How can you escape alone...... I'm going to fight with Yulia too! β
"Your Highness." Yulia gently admonished, the voice was simply not what a female general who had fought bloody battles on the battlefield would sayβit was clearly like a gentle sister carefully admonishing a reckless naughty sister, "I stayed here to protect my duty as the captain of the personal guard, to protect His Highness and Her Majesty...... And Your Highness, you...... You should also have your own beliefs and responsibilities. Remember, don't get emotional. β
ββ¦β¦ I see, Yulia. Closing her eyes and thinking carefully, the girl nodded firmly, "But please promise me not to do anything dangerous...... And when everything is settled, we will sit in the courtyard of the palace and enjoy the black tea made by our grandmother. And...... I also learned to make new dim sum. β
ββ¦β¦ I'm looking forward to it. Yulia smiled, "Well, please hurry up!" Kiku, protect her! β
The elegant bird of prey, which was all white, let out a startling sound to suppress the clouds, as if in response to Yulia's order.
Seeing that Kolos was gradually running out of her field of vision, surrounded by the white falcon, Yulia took a deep breath and looked coldly in the direction she had come.
"It's coming......" Yulia looked at the three heavily armed black-clothed soldiers and several military hounds that gradually appeared in the field of vision.
"It seems to be underestimated...... muttered to himself, the sharp blade hanging diagonally on the side of his body is unsheathed, and it looks even sharper in the rain, "The swordsmanship that the man taught...... It's time to come in handy. β
Raising her head, looking at the enemy who had already lined up in formation, like a great enemy, Yulia's clear fighting spirit surged: "The leader of the royal guard, Yulia Shuhuaz - here to learn!" Ministry of Intelligence...... Richard's lackeys! β
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ-
"Drink!"
Like a venomous snake attacking its prey, the bayonet pierced through the gaps in its sharp steel claws, slicing the throat of a special agent with precision. Drawing his sword, he turned and slashed a slash that slashed a blade-wielding foe with a helmet and left ear.
At about the same moment, a third agent lunged at her, tearing through the air from where she had stood before she turned. Of course, Yulia was not hurt in the slightest, but the spy who was desperately covering the wound in his throat was stabbed a few times in a row, which was considered a complete loss of breath - poor man.
Seeing that the situation was not good, he turned around and tried to escape, but in Yuria's opinion, his movements were too slow - as soon as he exposed his back to Yuria, the next second, the blade pierced his heart.
Kicking the spy soldier who was staring wide-eyedβthough he was covered by his helmet, he couldn't see itβshook the blood from his sword, and coldly looked around at the corpses of people and dogs lying down next to him, Yulia whispered, "What's next?" Who else? β
"It's really hard to deal with, this woman ......" muttered the suspected commander's secret service, who was hiding in the distance, watching the battle with binoculars in hand, "and two squads have been killed by her......"
"After all, it's the captain of the guard beside Her Majesty......" The soldier dressed as an adjutant on the side nodded, "But even if it's her, she doesn't have unlimited physical strength, and her martial arts haven't reached the level of being called a monster...... This time, send two squads at a time to try to take her down. β
"Well, that's it." Nodding his head and agreeing to the adjutant's suggestion, the commander picked up the binoculars again: "However, if you haven't been able to take her down this time...... If you go back, you'll be scolded by Captain Kenona. β
"yes...... If it really comes to that...... I'm afraid we won't be ......able to follow the order given to us by Colonel Richard, 'Capture Yulia Shuwards alive as much as possible,'"
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
"Whew...... Huh...... Like a wounded lioness, Yulia, who was still standing in the middle of the road, gasped, and her hand holding the sword was already trembling.
Relying on her own good strength and the terrain advantage of the trees and heights on both sides of the courtyard avenue, Yulia interspersed in the formation of the spies, using kite tactics to break them one by one, leaving one corpse after another in the middle of the main road. And due to the lack of high-lethal hot weapon support for the special agents, Yulia has no fear and can easily solve one enemy after another.
However, when the agents changed their strategy - instead of fighting Yuria, they chose to directly crash into a pathway - Yuria's strategy failed. Because the purpose of her battle here was to give Her Royal Highness enough time to run within the thick walls of the royal city and be protected by the guerrilla association and the remnants of the personal guard.
Therefore, when she had to give up a good chance to kill, kill from the tree, and confront these heavily armed spies, the wounds on her body were also increasing at an alarming rate.
Although all the fatal injuries were avoided, the pain and blood loss caused by the astonishing skin injuries also accelerated the rate of Yuria's physical loss. Not to mention that the number of spies in this attack is enough to sum up the previous two waves, and it is reasonable that he is exhausted from running for his life in the face of so many enemies.
"At least, His Highness should have already arrived near the royal city......" Yulia, who thought like this, raised her weapon with difficulty and looked at the several spies who were gradually surrounding.
"Surrender, don't do useless work." The soldier in the lead advised, and the rest raised their rifles and aimed at the thighs, ankles, and groins, which were not fatal, but would seriously affect their mobility.
"Oops...... Yulia gritted her teeth, at this time she should have chosen a direction to break through, but it seems that it is too late-
"Wuld......" At this moment, Yulia faintly heard such a whisper coming from the bushes hundreds of meters away. The performance of the agents confirmed that it was not an auditory hallucination, as their attention was also drawn.
βNah KestοΌβ The last note fell, and Yulia only felt a violent whirlwind, rushing fiercely from a hundred feet away in an instant, and the encirclement of the agents in front of her disappeared in half a second, replaced by a courtyard and flowing water.
"Hmm...... It's ......" Yulia struggled to her feet, but was gently pressed down by a hand.
"Wait a minute, I'm going to do something to get rid of the traces." The young man's gentle voice sounded, and when his vision recovered, he saw only a young man about thirteen or fourteen years old, patiently scribbling something on the surrounding land: "I will talk about it later." β

P.S: Thank you all for your concern, the update in the first few days was a bit too typo...... Cover your face...... The state has recovered a bit in recent days~
P.S2: Are you struggling to let the protagonist participate in the martial arts tournament, or do you follow the pro-guard side to do underground operations...... The plot of the former will be more familiar to everyone, and the plot of the latter may be more original...... I've prepared the outlines on both sides, and it has little impact on the outcome afterward, so I don't know which one you prefer to read?
