Chapter 13: The Secret of the Bloody Mercenary Group (2)
Raphael looked at the portraits of Ryan and Allendo in her hand, and was silent. The woman in black was very strange, because Raphael had always been decisive in her troubles, and she had never been in this situation, of course, she didn't dare to speak, she still knelt there honestly, not daring to move in the slightest.
There was silence in the room, save for the slight breathing of two people.
A moment later, there was a sound of footsteps coming from a distance, and it was supposed that someone was walking briskly towards Raphael's room. When footsteps appeared outside the door, the silent Raphael suddenly spoke: "Is it a killing?"
A middle-aged man's voice came from outside the door: "Yes, my lord." ”
Raphael raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice, "Come in and talk." ”
"Yes, sir. The middle-aged man outside the door gently pushed the door open after receiving Raphael's order, he walked in a few steps, and then turned around and closed the door gently. After doing all this, the middle-aged man bowed respectfully to Raphael, and then stood in an orderly manner. This is an extremely ordinary-looking middle-aged man, he is of medium height, neither fat nor thin, and there are no features on his face that can be remembered at a glance, and I believe that few people can accurately tell his appearance at a glance.
"What's the news?"
"Lord Qiyu, the target has been moving around the city, and has had conversations with nineteen people, but nothing particularly noteworthy. ”
Raphael frowned, he took out a large scroll from his bosom, laid it flat on the table, and slowly opened it, a plan of Seck City appeared in front of Raphael, Raphael pointed to the map and said to the middle-aged man, "You come and point out the places they have passed." ”
The middle-aged man walked up to the table in a few steps, and slowly pointed out to Raphael with his fingers all the locations and their routes of action after leaving the Mercenary Guild.
Raphael listened to the report of his subordinates in his ears, and his eyes corresponded one by one on the map of Seck City, and when his subordinates finished speaking, Raphael asked strangely: "It's so late, why are the two of them still wandering around the city?"
The middle-aged man cautiously replied, "Because they have already left four or five inns, but the owners of those inns are afraid of offending our bloody mercenary group, so they dare not let the target stay." ”
Raphael slammed the table hard, "Damn, doesn't that give the target a chance to wander around the city? No, find a way to get them to stop, and then it's better to get them out of here within a day or two." Before the adults left, there were a lot of arrangements in Seker City, and they must not be allowed to find out. ”
The middle-aged man whispered: "My lord, why bother so much, why don't I go out of the city overnight to recruit people and directly ...... the target" Speaking of this, the middle-aged man slashed down with his hand and made a slashing motion.
Raphael shook his head disapprovingly, he looked at the middle-aged man and said, "It sounds good, but it doesn't work at all." Did you know that these two men had sabotaged your plans in Giethoorn? ”
"What?" the middle-aged man was shocked, and he said in a lost voice, "Is it the left-handed adult that these two people killed?"
Raphael's face was solemn, and he continued: "The boy who used magic today is called Ryan, and the other name is Alendor, a druid. In this year's competitive tournament, it was their Ress team that defeated the Royal Knights team, which had dominated for twenty years. ”
The middle-aged man knew a little about the failure of the master in Giethoorn in front of him, and he also knew some news of the defeat of the Royal Knights in the competitive competition, but he didn't know the specific situation, and now when he heard Raphael say this, he was dumbfounded.
Raphael looked at his subordinates, and he didn't blame them for their gaffes, as he had been in a similar situation when he first heard the news, but he recovered quickly.
Seeing that his subordinates were also quickly returning to normal, Raphael nodded, he had already admired this right-hand man, and now he was even more satisfied. Raphael decided to talk to him a little more about the target, and continued: "The assassination of them is too much of a problem. We have fewer people to go, and it doesn't work at all. If we had gathered all the forces we could have at our disposal near Seker City, we might have succeeded, but the boy named Ryan had a close relationship with the youngest daughter of the Imperial Chancellor, and the woman of Orlando, the head of the Royal Knights, was Luke's eldest daughter. Once the two of them lose their news in Seker City, I am afraid that they will immediately attract a large number of people, and then all the arrangements of the adults in Seker City will be exposed, and the perfect plans of the adults will also be destroyed, which is absolutely not allowed!"
"What then? Are you just waiting for them to walk around here?"
"Of course not. Raphael raised his eyebrows, and once again there was a look of control in his eyes: "I have a brilliant plan now. ”
――――――*――――――*―――――― "How many are these?" Ryan turned to his partner and asked.
Alendor thought for a moment and said to Ryan, who was walking in front, "It's the eighth, and we've almost finished Syke City." ”
Ryan sighed and said helplessly: "No wonder the bloody hands are flying here, just because these innkeepers are afraid of things, but after beating them, they didn't dare to stay with us. ”
"Why don't we go out of town, I don't have a good impression here. ”
Ryan agreed to Elendo's suggestion, so the two of them made their way and walked into a remote street, which was the only way to the nearest city gate, although it was a little secluded and darker, but with the strength of Ryan and Elendor, there was nothing to fear.
The two were walking and walking, and suddenly heard a woman's voice calling for help: "Help, save ......" The woman's cry for help was only shouted once, and then it was suddenly interrupted, it should have been covered by someone's mouth.
Ryan and Alendor glanced at each other, and the two of them quickly ran towards the source of the sound.
Turning an alley, Ryan and Alendor found the source of the sound: a young woman was pressed to the ground, a man squatted on her head and held her hands, and another man was riding on top of her, because of the woman's cry for help, the man riding on top of her held down the woman's mouth with one hand, and tore a piece of cloth from the woman's body with the other, and was about to stuff it into the woman's mouth, the woman struggled desperately, but it was obvious that her strength was far inferior to that of the two men.
Allendo didn't say a word, he rushed forward in a few steps, he kicked the head of the man riding on the woman, and kicked the man away, the man just "snorted", and his body hit the wall, sliding softly to the ground.
The man holding the woman's hands was taken aback, and just as he tried to stand up, Ryan's magic missile also arrived, and the purple magic missile crossed an inconspicuous trajectory in the dark night, hitting the man's face, and the man let out a scream, covered his face and fell backwards.
Elendor looked at the two men, who were unconscious, and then Allendo turned around and whispered to the woman who was lying on the ground, still unable to believe what she was seeing, "Okay, you're safe." ”
The woman lying on the ground struggled to sit up, she covered the torn clothes with her hands, but unfortunately the clothes on her body were in tatters, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't cover her snow-white skin, Ryan took out a piece of clothing from the storage pocket on her body and handed it to the woman: "Maybe it's a little bigger, you can wear it first." ”
The woman raised her head gratefully, and said to Alendor and Ryan, "Thank you, thank you..."
