Chapter 212: The Shadow Lord's Worries
Alan Linville rode on top of Miro and frantically pounded the poor man with his fists.
The screams had long since changed from loud to faint, from faint to silent.
But the Shadow Lord still didn't stop, and smashed down mechanically with one punch after another, his anger overwhelmed reason, and it was difficult to extinguish it until he burned everything.
Finally, the Shadow Lord's arm was sore, his hand was smashed, and the flesh and blood on his fist were blurred, most of it was Miro's blood and tears, and a small part was his own blood.
He stopped, gasping for breath.
For a while, he wanted to laugh, thinking that maybe the drama "People and Ghosts Are Not Over" did not discredit the shadow thieves, even the right-hand man of his movie master can say such stupid things, and the shadow thieves who are played by ghosts in the play are much more clever than Miroko.
Ayron stood up from Miro, who had less air in and more out of breath, took the handkerchief handed by Reynolds, and wiped the blood on his hands.
"Let the other members of the assassination team come to me, and I'll ask them one by one."
Reynolds agreed with a bloody head and walked out, but was stopped by the shadow lord Eran: "Wait, you don't have to come to see me, let the assassination team kneel in the torture room and wait for me, I will ask in person." ”
The Shadow Lord bites the word "ask" very hard, and it is obvious that his question will not be the calm kind.
……
The elite shadow thieves who participated in the assassination were stripped of their shirts and knelt tremblingly on the cold, damp stone floor of the torture chamber, the ground glowing with a deep scarlet color, this kind of black and red that cannot be washed away, I don't know how much flesh and blood can be condensed out.
In front of them was the body of Miro, the deputy leader of the operation, and the flesh on poor Miro's face was all gone, and only a blur of red flesh and a few black holes could be seen on his face.
Alan Linville walked up to them and said with a cold face, "Why did the assassination attempt fail?" What the hell happened to the Arcanese brothers? That's something I have to figure out tonight. You will not be punished for your failure, but you will die for not giving me a reasonable explanation! ”
"Yes, Lord Shadow, we must know everything, and we must say everything."
"I ...... I don't really know what's going on......"
"My lord, I don't dare to hide anything, but it's really hard to explain the situation at that time......
……
The Shadow Thief Elite tried their best to clear it up, but they didn't know how to explain it, and they talked nonsense.
Aran walked over and stabbed him in the heart of the shadow thief who shouted he didn't know what was going on, and then pushed his body to the ground.
"Next, you say."
His tone was calm, and he took the dagger with the tip of the knife still dripping blood, and asked the shadow thief kneeling next to the deceased.
"Big ...... My lord...... I, I saw Arcanis stab Bredero in half, and then he stared at Bredero for a long time, and for a moment, then ...... Then he began to protect Bredero, and Bart wanted to make up for Bredero, but was stopped by Arcanis. ”
Under the threat of his life, the shadow thief laboriously described the situation at the scene, which made him talk about it indecently.
"Bart, you come on."
The Shadow Lord let him go, and turned to another person, who was the little boss who wanted to pick up the cheap and make a fortune.
"At that time, Lord Arcanis had already stabbed his short sword into Bredero's chest, and for some reason he did not kill him on the spot, but instead went to kill another group of spoilers, so I sneaked over to help Lord Arcanis finish the unfinished business, but Master Arcanis actually grabbed the dagger I stabbed out with his hand, and took the dagger away......"
Alan's face became more and more gloomy, he guessed some possibility, and asked the other person, "You are a mage, did you perceive the magic of charm at that time?" Why didn't you use 'disenchantment' on Arcanis at that time? ”
"My lord, I used it, Miro also used the 'dispel' magic technique, and he had already blessed Lord Arcanis with the 'Chaos Command' magic of immune control before the war, Lord Arcanis didn't seem to have fallen into any charm spells and control spells, he was very sober."
"When he stopped us, he spoke in a very strange tone, as if his mood was fluctuating very much, which was completely different from his usual speaking style."
He looked at Bredero differently, as if he ...... Like the last scene in "Titanic", Io looks at Rose from afar......"
……
After asking around, all the details of what happened at the scene were asked clearly by Alan Linville.
He fell into thought, analyzed carefully.
Didn't hit any charm and control spells, he was very conscious, and before the change, he and Bledro looked at each other "affectionately" for a while, and when the two fought each other, they seemed to be sympathetic to each other, and from the tone of the answer, it could be heard that Bredero seemed to be very important to Arcarnes, and he had to protect him from the slightest injury, and Arcarnese's tone of voice at that time was very rare and contained a certain emotion, unlike his usual cold style, and the eyes that looked at Bledro were full of affection......
Is it really Miro's guess?
If it were Erlang who was Miro, he would guess this when he saw that scene on the spot.
Oops, it seems that he wronged Miro and accidentally killed the wrong person...... Alan was annoyed for a few seconds, then put it behind him.
I never thought that you would be such a person, Brother Arcanes.
No wonder I have to get close to women, no wonder I like fitness so much, I don't have any pastime on weekdays, I only go to the guild's practice room to hone my skills with the boys......
Brother, you have this need, tell me big brother, the Shadow Thieves Guild doesn't have much else, but the stick guys are in groups.
Alan sighed deeply, and the more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became, thinking that this kind of thing had a lot to do with the fact that he usually cared too little about the Arcanes brothers and only treated him as a sharp knife.
Arcanis is also a person, he is not a cold dagger, he also needs affection.
However, who is bad to fall in love with, but to fall in love with Bredero?
Even if you fall in love with Bredero, when is it not good to love, why don't you fall in love with him halfway through the killing?
Fate, wonderful.
Unexpectedly, the Church of Eros has just established a temple in the city of Askatra, and Eros has exerted great influence, and it seems that this assassination failure is force majeure, not a crime of war.
Ayron rubbed the corners of his forehead with a faint pain, and waved his hand to let the kneeling shadow thief elites disperse, no longer holding them accountable for the failed assassination.
He was caught in an even bigger problem, Arcanis-Garth was now a man of Bredrow, a legendary assassin and a former patron saint of shadow thieves, and no one knew the horror of Arcanis better than Alan, and there was no one in the continent of Feren that he couldn't kill.
What if Bredero seduced himself and blew the pillow wind, and Arcanis got carried away and turned his head to attack his former big brother?
The more he thought about it, the heavier Alan Linville's mood became.
