122. The King of the Night
The situation in the Savage Land is already a little out of control.
Whether it's Sean's side, or the Chamber of Commerce Alliance's side, or Billy, the deputy regional governor of the Great Rift Valley who is deep in pursuit. Of course, the biggest loss should be the Rift Valley, because three trade points have been completely ransacked, one trade point has been completely destroyed, and the most frightening thing is that the cavalry unit is still roaming around the Rift Valley like a geyant, and no one has a way to determine their exact itinerary.
Or even if there was a way, no one would try to determine the exact location of this force.
In order to keep her whereabouts secret, any party that encounters Rena, whether it is a slave catcher, a free man, or a caravan, is attacked and ransacked. However, in this almost dangerous situation, no one in the other eight trading points in the Great Rift Valley dared to send troops to intercept Rena's cavalry troops, and even ignored many distress signals, they were really worried that they would give Sean's army an excuse to go out.
Suddenly, countless slave catchers left the Great Rift Valley one after another; And the caravans were also afraid to pass through the Rift Valley.
At such an urgent moment, the regional governor of the Great Rift Valley is nowhere to be seen, which makes many people have to guess the specific situation. But in any case, the Great Rift Valley has completely lost its old dominance and dominance at this moment, and even to put it more seriously, the head-tailed snake route has completely lost its meaning at this moment.
……
There was a boom and a bang, and sand and dust flew all over the sky.
Even if you are a kilometer away, you can still feel the movement of the ground shaking at this moment.
What a terrible force at this time.
In the dust flying in the sky, there were countless tall black shadows shaking inside. Because of the obscuration of the sand, it doesn't look very real in the line of sight, and it looks like the black shadows in the dust seem to be centaurs.
Call.
A strong gust of wind suddenly blew in your face. Blow away a lot of dust and mist.
That's when everything seems a little more real.
This force is not a centaur, but a group of human cavalry.
Suddenly, the leading cavalryman suddenly pulled the reins, and the horse under his crotch neighed and stood up. But the owner sitting on the war horse was not overturned because of the violent movement of the war horse, but the body was slightly tilted, and the person who cooperated with the war horse immediately adjusted his posture, and the hooded cloak on his body was hunting under the strong wind, but the hood was not blown over, and the spear held in his right hand did not tremble in the process.
Accompanied by the leading cavalry man stood up. The cavalry behind him also followed with a series of neighing of war horses, but there were not many war horses that were pulled up because of the excessive movement force of the cavalry on horseback.
The front hooves of the war horse hit the ground.
The horseman on horseback could see his head bobbing from side to side, as if scanning everything around him.
After a few seconds, a voice sounded: "Rest in place for thirty minutes." Dismounting is not permitted. ”
Listen to the voice, this leading cavalryman is actually a woman!
But it's subtle. All the cavalry did not hesitate to give the woman's order. Soon there was a rustling sound behind her: some people began to drink, some began to eat dry food, and some people moved their butts a little to make themselves sit more comfortably, but more people took advantage of this time to rest, took out water bags and poured them on the neck of the war horse to cool down the war horse.
"Your Excellency." A cavalryman tugs at the reins. The war horse slowly moved forward and approached the female cavalryman's side, "Why don't we go deep into the wilderness with us, but go around in circles here?" …… Now none of these trade points dare to go to war with us. But we can't attack the trade point where the army is full and there are golden powerhouses, so what are we doing now? ”
"Harassment." The cavalryman who spoke was naturally the sharpshooter Reina, "Of course, you have to understand that it can be military training or anything else, anyway, our actions are in accordance with the instructions of Lord William." ”
When he heard the name "William", the face of the cavalryman who opened his mouth immediately became solemn, and it was a kind of respect from the heart.
He had the privilege of being a veteran of military activities with William in Date Territory, so he was deeply impressed by William's lightning-thunder tactics, and that battle was also the most amazing battle he had ever fought. The battle between the two sides did not look like a war at all, but like a rehearsed performance according to a script, although it was true that some people were killed, but the enemy had the largest number of deaths, and they just followed William's orders and arrangements, and easily uprooted all the enemy's tactical arrangements one by one.
This was really the most amazing battle he felt, as if as long as he obeyed William's arrangement and command, there would never be any reason to lose.
So after hearing Raina say that it was William's arrangement, the cavalryman immediately understood.
As for what he understood, even he didn't know the Dao, he only knew that the Dao was arranged by Lord William anyway, so it was right to obey.
Only Rena, her eyes kept flashing, and she seemed to vaguely understand and understand William's arrangement.
Regardless, Rena was extremely satisfied with the situation, even though there were less than 400 of her 500 cavalry left due to the successive battles, each of them exuded a terrifying bloody aura, just like Rena had seen in Clov's troops before. However, she knew very well that her cavalry force could not be compared to Clov's near-death army at the moment, but she believed that it would not be long before her own unit would surely become like Clov's so-called "Cecilia's personal guard", with the momentum that makes people panic just by seeing it.
Of course, Rena was more satisfied with herself.
She always felt that she seemed to be about to break through the current limit, because the recent successive battles had made her more and more sensitive, and her sense and judgment of breath were much more accurate, and often many times she didn't even need to send scouts to know if there was an ambush in front of the road.
Rena knew that she would soon officially step into the Golden Realm.
If she does step into the golden realm before her return, then she will be the successor of Shefanio. Sean's second powerhouse in the Golden Realm.
Let's find some prey to hone in on it.
Rena thought to herself, and her eyes became sharp unconsciously: I really want to go deep into the wilderness to see it.
……
The Void City of Panda Territory is one of the two cities in Sean's Domain.
The other, located in the Ida Territory, was once the lair of the Michlin family and was also the home of the Ruud family. Mitchlin's father ran the territory all his life. But now, not only has the territory changed hands, but even Ruud. Mitchlin, the former viscount of the Kingdom of Dabion, has also turned his back on his country and joined Sean's side. The kingdom of Dabion was naturally furious about this. However, after sending more than a dozen assassins to attack and assassinate one after another, the Kingdom of Dabion could only acquiesce to this fact.
However, the Michilyn family is now notorious in the kingdom of Dabiang, and many of the properties that were set up in various parts of the kingdom in order to subsidize the expenses of the territory have now been all seized. But all that. For today's Ruud. For Mitchlin, it doesn't make sense.
He's now. He is the lord of Void City. He is also the acting lord of Panda Territory.
In the entire administrative system under Sean, except for Neil, he has the most authority next.
Ruud's mood is still a little complicated about the decision to surrender Sean, but if he regrets it, he may not have it. He knew very well that if he had not surrendered. Then he and his family will really have nothing left - after returning to the kingdom, as a defeated general, and his connections are not particularly good, it will be difficult for him to get another share of the territory. In the end, there are only two ways to go, either to become the internal affairs officer of another lord, or to find a way to camp in the royal capital.
But now, the territory run by his father's generation is still there, but it has just changed hands, and Sean also promised him that as long as he becomes an official nobleman, he will be given a title immediately, and there will be no less things that should be given at that time, and he can also take back the Ita territory if he wants to, and it doesn't matter if he wants other territories under Sean, it is precisely because of this proposal that Ruud will choose to surrender. And what makes Ruud happiest is that the parasites of the Michlin family will be completely eliminated in this turmoil - except for the list he gave to Neil, the rest of the Michilin family will be banished, and if they don't leave, then what awaits them is bloody suppression.
Ruud slowly took off his glasses, pinched his tired eyebrows, and looked away from the books on the table, glancing at the window not very far from him.
The moonlight, spilling through the window, reflected a silvery glow on the ground.
The breeze blows up, blowing the scarf in the window, which looks a little beautiful.
I don't know what Lu Dao is for, Rude suddenly remembered the beautiful shadow in his dream, and sighed slightly in his heart, maybe the distance between himself and her is gradually narrowing. This is the reason why Ruud's mood is very subtle and complicated, he likes that girl, or he has fallen in love with this girl the moment he sees her, but fate has played a big joke on him, he and her already have an identity gap, when he finally made up his mind to become a powerful person regardless of everything, but he encountered the current thing.
In the face of love and family, Ruud 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 Michilyn family will decline completely; But if he chooses Sean, he still has a chance to make a comeback, although the distance from her will become more and more distant, but maybe he will still have a chance to have her.
In the case of multiple concerns, Ruud had no way or dared not accept the olive branch thrown by Sean.
After being in a daze for a while, Rude suddenly came back to his senses and smiled a little self-deprecatingly: "I'm afraid, she can't wait until I become famous." ”
At this moment, a cold wind suddenly blew up.
Ruud shuddered suddenly, his whole body seemed to have fallen into an ice cave, and the strong sense of fear even made it difficult for him to breathe, and his face quickly turned red. It felt like someone had grabbed Ruud by the throat and tried to suffocate him to death.
"Ahem."
A soft cough sounded.
The suffocation of fear in the room, which was so heavy that Ruud couldn't breathe, was shattered in an instant.
Ruud let out a series of coughs, and he was now soaking wet as if he had been fished out of the water. And his face was as pale as a serious illness, and his chest and abdomen rose and fell very violently. The sound of breathing could be heard clearly in the quiet room, accompanied by violent coughing from time to time, but Ruud's coughing was completely different from the light cough at the beginning.
A figure stepped out of the shadows in the room.
In an instant, all the candles that had been lit in the room were extinguished.
Ruud's face turned even paler, and there was a deep horror in his eyes.
A chill lit up.
Reflected in Ruud's eyes, it was an unprecedented blue light.
This blue light, with a cold sense of suffocation and death, became larger and larger in Rude's pupils, and it seemed that the next moment it would completely penetrate Rude's eyebrows.
But at this moment, the blue light in mid-air suddenly deflected.
From right to left.
The blue brilliance marks a magnificent mark. Wisps of cold air spread out in the air, and these cold airs soon intertwined into a blue net in mid-air. But if you look closely, you can find that this blue net is actually made of countless sword shadows, and that huge sword aura rises into the sky, tearing the ground and roofs near the blue net into countless criss-crossing grooves.
The sand and rocks are falling.
A black light and shadow burst through the air. Crashing into the blue net, an abundant aura burst out. But it's magical, as if it doesn't have any destructive power. Everything swept by the current was not destroyed, except for the fact that it was a little messy due to the effects of the wind.
There was still nothing left on the ground and roof, except for the grooves left by the sword qi coming out vertically and horizontally.
It's just that when the blue net and the black shadow collided with each other, the sword qi emitted by the blue net was all shocked and completely disappeared. And in the dark environment, there was a muffled sound. The voice was very close to Ruud, and it sounded clearly the wound of the killer who wanted to assassinate Ruud, not the man who performed the Shadow Strike.
"Boom".
The roar of a heavy object falling to the ground sounded, and the terrible thing was that it was accompanied by the sound. Originally, the house did not shake in the slightest even in the environment of sword qi, but because of this, there was a strong shaking, as if it were an earthquake. Countless sand and stones fell one after another, and for a while, there were several extremely terrifying-looking cracks on 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.
The five-story mansion of the city lord, which was built of special materials, seemed to collapse at any moment in the fall of this accent.
How is this possible!
Ruud's gaze looked to the left, where the man who had tried to assassinate him was finally revealed as the gray sand fell.
It was a middle-aged man in a white dress, he was very handsome, and he had a mature charm and temperament that ordinary men did not have, and from these aspects, this assassin must be the kind of person who really had status, and Rude guessed that the other party was probably a powerful nobleman. Because even at this moment, this middle-aged man was a little gray and gray by the gray sand, but that elegant temperament was not destroyed at all, and even because of being a strong man, his temperament was even more special.
If Billy, the deputy governor of the Great Rift Valley, was here, then he would be able to recognize it at a glance, and the middle-aged man in front of him was the regional governor of their Great Rift Valley!
The regional governor didn't go to see Rude, in his eyes, Rude was actually no different from a dead man, and this time he came to kill Rude just by the way. Originally, his goal was to check the situation of Sean's lord's territory, and if possible, to kill William and Alfred, all of Sean's most powerful men, but before he could finish these things, he received a secret contact from the Pan-continental Chamber of Commerce Alliance, informing him of the current situation in the Great Rift Valley.
At that time, the district governor distorted his face on the spot with anger.
Especially when he heard that the Pan-Continental Chamber of Commerce Alliance had sent an envoy to negotiate with Sean for this purpose, he felt a great humiliation. However, at this time, the Pan-Continental Chamber of Commerce Alliance also issued an order, asking him to assassinate Neil, who will represent Sean in the negotiation work this time, because according to the investigation of the Pan-continental Chamber of Commerce Alliance, as long as Neil is dead, then Sean will not have any qualified and excellent internal affairs officials, and the negotiation work will be their Pan-continental Chamber of Commerce to achieve an absolute advantage.
However, what he didn't expect was that Neil was in Date at the moment, and he was only rushing towards the Void City after receiving the news, so the district chief who didn't know the situation naturally couldn't find the target after wandering for three days. And just as he was about to go to the Pan-Continental Chamber of Commerce to contact the latest information, he received a message from his allegiance family, asking him to erase Rude, the traitor of the Dabion Kingdom.
That's why the regional governor is here.
It's just that what he didn't expect was that Rude, the betrayer of the Dabiang Kingdom, actually had such a powerful guard by his side, which was a bit beyond his expectations.
At this moment, the gaze of the regional governor of the Great Rift Valley, who had a mature charm, was falling on the object that made a heavy noise after it landed.
It's just that when he saw this thing clearly, his pupils suddenly shrank.
Because it's a coffin!
Almost at this moment, a cold aura had spread throughout his body, and it felt like he was being targeted by a deadly natural enemy. In an instant, this powerful regional chief had a cold sense of death enveloping his hands and feet, and his heart was shattered.
This time, he finally realized how strong and terrifying the fear he had created for Rude just now! (To be continued......)
PS: Originally, the title was supposed to be "Assassins from the Savages and Kings from the Darkness", but the title was obviously a bit long, so I changed it. …… The 5K character chapter is considered a medium-sized chapter. Well, that's all.
