Chapter 147 One drink and one peck, its own fixed number
Assassins should have been hiding in the darkness, like poisonous snakes ready to go, patiently waiting for the chance of a fatal blow.

Instead of being assassinated in public like a mob.

Using an assassin as a warrior is equivalent to using one's own weaknesses to challenge the latter's strengths.

The results speak for themselves.

What's more, the assassins never imagined that besides the extremely brave shark, there would be an extra powerful "Assassin traitor" on the side of the Knights Templar.

As soon as the battle was fought, the Assassins fell into a passive position, and were almost rubbed against the ground by the shark and Edward, who was eager to show off.

The white robes of the assassins were quickly stained red by the splashing blood.

One after another, they fell down and lay in a pool of blood.

However, for the Assassins, there is good news as well as bad news.

The good news is naturally that Rorschach, the hidden top combat power, did not make a move, but chose to OB on the edge.

However, how could the assassins who had regarded him as a templar let him go?
Moreover, behind him was Torres, the Grand Commander of the Templar Knights!
No matter how reluctant Rorschach was, the assassin who recognized him rushed up to him together with another assassin, waved the weapon in his hand, and attacked him.

With Rorschach's current combat power, it is not difficult to kill these two assassins.

However, considering his subsequent dealings with the Assassin Brotherhood, he couldn't do that!
In desperation, Luo Xia had no choice but to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger, taking a defensive position and constantly resisting the attacks of the two.

Dangdang Dangdang!
The sound of clashing swords came and went one after another.

And after several rounds, Rorschach quickly recognized this assassin through the opponent's slightly sluggish right shoulder movement. It was the one who tried to assassinate Torres at the masquerade last time, but was repelled by himself!
why is it you again? !

While complaining in his heart, Luo Xia took advantage of the situation and turned to one side, allowing the sharp long dagger to pass in front of him, before raising his hand and waving the sword to catch it.

The long sword in his hand seemed to be stuck to the dagger, he swiped it in a circle, and then swung it out forcefully.

In the next second, the dagger with a cold light came out from the assassin's hand, and with a "ping" sound, it was firmly nailed to the wooden board of the goods booth beside it!

In a blink of an eye, the assassin reacted subconsciously, stomping on his feet, retreating violently.

Just when the assassin thought that Rorschach would take advantage of the victory to pursue and kill himself, Rorschach's feet were as steady as Mount Tai, and instead of advancing, he retreated and continued to protect Torres, acting as a loyal bodyguard.

Seeing this, the pair of brown eyes under the hood couldn't help showing a hint of doubt.

This guy is obviously very strong, why does he deliberately release water every time?

It was like that last time at the dance, and it's going to be like this this time...

Seeing that his companion took a step forward and was about to attack again, the assassin suddenly stretched out his hand and stopped him with a deep voice:

"No, don't pay attention to him, our goal is the saint!"

Hearing this, the white-robed assassin holding a long sword beside him was taken aback for a moment, then nodded, and turned without hesitation to support other assassins who were beaten by sharks.

And this old opponent of Rorschach came to the booth beside him, pulled out his dagger, turned around to take a deep look at Rorschach, and then turned and left.

Seeing this, Rorschach couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and he didn't forget to ask Torres behind him: "Your Excellency Governor, are you okay?"

"It's okay, luckily you're here..."

Since Rorschach had always used the excuse of protecting himself, Torres didn't suspect at all whether he was in collusion with the assassin, on the contrary, he was very grateful to him.

Another one who showed his attitude with actions and dispelled suspicion was Edward.

Edward at this time, of course, did not know the grievances between the Knights Templar and the Brotherhood of Assassins.

He just waved the long sword in his hand for his own life and reward.

Turning his head to look at Edward who was working extremely hard, Rorschach couldn't help shaking his head slightly, and sighed secretly in his heart:

Young man, you are still too young...

. . .

Torres was protected by Rorschach, and the shark who was robbed of his job as a bodyguard vented his anger on the assassins!
I saw this burly and heavy armored warrior who spoke few words, like an unstoppable brown bear, dancing the ax in his hand vigorously, killing the assassins until blood flowed into rivers.

But the assassins had nothing to do with him.

The Hidden Blade and the Long Sword couldn't break through the defense at all, and really hurt him.

Every dart hitting the shark's thick armor can only make a tinkling sound.

Seeing that the blow arrows in their hands didn't work, several assassins standing on the high ground drew their long swords from their waists, jumped up and joined the battle.

However, under the leadership of Shark and Edward, the Templars completely suppressed the Assassin's surprise attack and were unable to approach the Saint at all.

In the end, this sudden attack came to an end with a crisp whistle.

Hearing the signal, the assassins who had been unable to attack for a long time put away their weapons one after another and chose to retreat strategically.

Come in a hurry, go in a hurry.

The assassins in white robes, like a wave, rushed towards the reef, then quickly faded away, and merged into the vast sea called "city" again...

After repelling the assassin, the group finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking at the corpses everywhere, Rogers sighed while wiping the long sword in his hand with a handkerchief:

"Everyone, what a fierce battle, I think I must have enough exercise today."

Immediately afterwards, putting his sword into its sheath, Rogers stated that he was about to set off to return to England, and then hoped to bring back a title of governor.

After bidding farewell to Rogers, Torres ordered Dikas to escort the saint to the prison of the mansion, and he came to Edward himself:
"As for you, Mr. Walpole..."

While speaking, he took out a bulging money bag from his pocket and handed it to Edward.

"This is your reward and my first investment in you."

"Grateful."

Perhaps it was Edward's heroic performance in battle that proved that he would not be a spy for the Assassins.

Torres also asked him to come and watch during the interrogation tomorrow.

Edward naturally nodded in agreement.

After talking to Edward, Torres came to Rorschach, reached out and patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "Rorschach, you did a good job. See you tomorrow?"

"Yes, Your Excellency the Governor."

After all, Torres took the shark and left together.

And Luo Xia didn't want to stay any longer, so he bid farewell to Edward, who was weighing the purse:

"Mr. Walpole, see you tomorrow, then..."

"Ok."

The moment he turned to leave, Rorschach happened to see a dissatisfied expression on Edward's face.

Obviously, he feels that his return and contribution are not proportional at all!
Rorschach could also understand Edward's inner thoughts.

You know, he risked his life to deliver the things to Torres.

However, what he got in exchange was just a small purse that couldn't hold many gold coins? !

Rorschach suddenly thought that if Torres wasn't so stingy, he would pay him more.

Edward, whose mind is full of money at this time, may be satisfied with this, and there will be no series of things that happened later.

However, one drink and one peck has its own set number.

Some people are destined to be the protagonists on the stage.

And some people are destined to become tool people to promote the development of the plot...
