Mercenaries and Adventurers

"Ah, it hurts so much, **** it!"

Kiel yelled expressionlessly, pretending to be pierced and injured by the spikes at the bottom after falling into the trap.

Although he didn't know how long it would last, he didn't care if he just yelled a few times.

Light up the torch in his hand, and the situation at the bottom of the surrounding traps is clear at a glance.

"Hiss!" Kiel took a breath and was taken aback, because the surrounding ground was nailed with finger-thin wooden poles, and the top of each wooden pole was equipped with a gleaming iron point.

If it weren't for the wooden boards under his feet now, it is estimated that Kiel would have been sieved by these things just now.

At that time, he will really cry out in pain.

Keel carefully inspected the spikes on the bottom of the trap before placing his feet in the gaps between the spikes. Look around, there is a low wooden door on the wall at the bottom of Fangzheng's trap, presumably that is the way for the other party to enter and exit here.

Thinking about it, the spikes at the bottom of the trap are shining and reflecting the fire. Obviously, someone often comes to maintain it, and the way of maintenance is to enter and exit through the wooden door at the bottom. It is impossible to let people hang from above with a rope every time. .

It is estimated that no one in this gang that has been established for a few years would dare to do this kind of work. If he was asked to do it, he would not dare, and would have run away long ago.

Keel scrambled to the edge of the wooden door with the spikes at his feet, pushed hard, and the wooden door was firmly closed.

Apparently the wooden door opened and closed inwards, and the inside was closed.

However, this did not bother Kiel, the long sword was out of its sheath, and under the light of the torch, he stuffed the blade of the long sword through the gap in the wooden door, found the fixed pin blocking the way behind the door, and Kiel used the sword back and forth. The sharp stab stabbed the wooden pin quickly, and he raised his leg again, and the low wooden door opened in response.

Keel took a careful look behind the door, and found that behind it was a low passageway as high as the door. He extinguished the torch, put it away, and then climbed down, and the whole person got in.

From the height of the passage, Kiel can feel that the person who designed this place is not very tall and strong. The other party may be able to walk in and out of the passage with a low body and small steps, while Kiel in armor can only crawl in the passage. moved in.

With a thought, the sword body of the long sword emits a faint white light, which will not be too bright, so that the enemy can discover something in advance, and it will not make him unable to see the surrounding things clearly.

Just as Kiel was slowly moving in the passage, not far away, he heard the sound of the mechanism turning, accompanied by the sound of several gang thugs yelling hard.

Keir guessed that the power source of the mechanism in this house should be driven by several thugs, so every time the mechanism is important to start, the shouts from below will be heard.

He couldn't hear clearly when he was on the first floor of the house just now, but now that he entered the basement of the house, the shouts of the other party were much clearer, obviously the distance between the two was not very far.

It may even be separated by a wooden wall.

Keir gripped the long sword tightly and decided to give the enemy he met later a ruthless attack. Although the enemy was an ordinary gang, judging from the spears, crossbows, and traps just now, it seemed that the opponent did not intend to hold back on force.

Since the enemy didn't intend to hold back, Kiel no longer used force cautiously, but tried to kill the enemy as before.

In addition to the shouts of several gang thugs, Kiel also heard a young and sinister voice directing and issuing orders.

"Let the few people who came back just now go to support the companions on both sides of the back door! In addition, you, and you, the two of you follow the stairs of the second room in the south to the second floor of the house through the gap in the wall, um, let me think about it , turn left on the second floor, then turn right, open the hidden door, and enter the top of the main hall at the back door."

After a pause, the man seemed to have handed the item to the two people he ordered: "Here, this is the poison that the boss finally found the material for Scarface to make. After going to the top of the main hall at the back door, open the door on the floor. Organ, mix these poisons with water and pour them down to poison those soldiers!"

Responding to the young and sinister voice was the cowardly response of the two thugs.

"What? Don't you dare? Don't dare to kill or pour the poison? What's the use of you? Hurry up, I don't know how long the boss can delay, and kill his soldiers before the lord, I can't stay here anymore. But we can go out through the secret passage, go to other towns and start again, listen to me, when we arrive at a new place, how can we not start over with our means and scale? At that time, at that time, we will fight back!"

Seemingly convinced, Keir heard two footsteps and pushed open the wooden door and went out.

Keir couldn't sit still now, and had to hurry up. Obviously, the local soldiers who were blocked in the house and couldn't get in and out were still fighting, but the soldiers probably could cope with ordinary traps, but the one who fell from the top of the house Deadly poison is hard to deal with.

He had to hurry up, something had to be done. Either catch up with the two people who were holding the poison just now, or open the mechanism of the so-called main hall at the back door to let the local soldiers leave that dangerous place.

But this house full of organs is very complicated, and the aisle he walks in is also low and tight. Time is running out, and it is impossible for Kiel to crawl slowly in the aisle anymore. He must go out now.

Fortunately, when he heard the voice just now, the young and sinister voice seemed to be behind the wooden wall on his left side. The distance to the voice was very close, and the barrier between the two was not thick.

Kiel immediately poked the wooden board on the left with the long sword, and after the tip of the sword pierced in, he twisted the long sword to pry off a small piece of wood.

This made Keel very excited.

It seemed that Kiel's actions were discovered by the gang members next door. They were quiet first, and then they heard the sound of Kiel digging the wooden wall with a long sword.

"What's the movement?" Some thugs were puzzled.

"Could it be that a weed rat made a big hole here? Didn't a nest of weed rats hollow out a large area under the yard and collapse it before? We also had to build a well in the upper yard."

Immediately, the young and sinister voice sounded: "You idiot? How can a weed rat make such a big hole when there are people in the house during the day! Something weird! No matter what, pick up a knife for me and pry this piece open! No matter what it is , Kill them all for me!"

Then there was the sound of frantic walking, and the sound of a weapon being pulled out of its scabbard.

Soon, there was a rattling sound on the opposite side where Kiel was digging, and the other party also dug from the opposite side.

Keir cheered up and immediately sped up his actions.

The not-so-thick wooden walls couldn't withstand the movements on the left and right sides, and a small hole was soon dug out. Keel immediately extinguished the light of the long sword in his hand, and let the light from the opposite room shine.

He didn't stop in his hand, and the long sword immediately expanded along a small hole that was dug.

On the other side, they immediately stopped what they were doing, and the thugs around the wall were taken aback. They thought it was a monster from the ground, after all, the teeth that dug the wall were shining with a metallic luster.

"Boss, come and see, what exactly is this?"

But before the people in the underground room could see clearly, Keir quickly expanded the hole, seeing that he was about to be attacked by the people who came back to his senses, the long sword in his hand immediately stretched out, and then a very dazzling white light was released, It blinded everyone in the small office headquarters.

"Ah! Eyes!"

"What's going on? What's going on?"

"There's a monster! I'll say it's a monster! The mutated weed rat will eat our eyeballs! My eyeballs are gone!"

"Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Back up against the wall, back up against the wall, something is dangling in front of your eyes, you gang #￥# just use the thing in your hand to chop it!"

"That's right! The boss is right! Suffer!"

"Ah! Don't cut me! I'm not a monster, I'm not a monster!"

"I don't care if you are a monster or not, don't come close to me! I will kill anyone who comes close to me!"

Being blinded all of a sudden, several gang thugs in the room became chaotic, and even attacked each other by themselves, even though the commanding 'boss' made everyone lean against the wall to attack and protect themselves, but the thugs in the panic only cared about Looking at myself, whoever bumped into them would be immediately rushed over as a monster, and immediately slashed at them with a knife.

Even if he later found out that he had killed the wrong person, he didn't admit it at all. And the thug who was cut off was not a vegetarian, neither side could see it, and whoever didn't know the other side's careful thoughts immediately retaliated.

So it was just a few people, but they fought each other.

Keir poked his head out of the hole first, and found five thugs in a mess in the square room, cutting each other.

And there was another person who was quietly leaning against the wall on the other side of the room, holding a sharp dagger in his hand, ready to strike anyone who approached him at any time.

Kiel saw the weapon used by the man through the oil lamp in the house, and immediately narrowed his eyes.

It was a dark and narrow steel dagger. The blade of the dagger was narrower than ordinary protective daggers, but the steel material made it even thinner, but its toughness and strength were far superior to ordinary iron daggers.

In addition, the long and narrow body of this dagger is especially suitable for stabbing, and the sharp tip can easily pierce the human body.

"is it you?"

Keel muttered quietly.

Then he retracted his head and expanded the already widened hole more quickly. Then he crawled out of the not-so-wide hole with his whole body.

"Be careful, you idiots, something crawled out!" A young and sinister voice said from the mouth of the young man by the wall. This man was wearing black and gray compact leather clothing, and the parts of his body that were easy to move Reinforced with extra straps, it looks much cleaner.

Kiel's eyes lit up, and he felt more and more that this guy was the murderer who killed the merchant in charge of their caravan.

Glancing at a few gang thugs in the middle of the room, these people have no one to care about Kiel at this time, even though they all heard the sound of Kiel crawling out, these people have completely fired up, The machete in his hand greeted his former companion with a life-threatening knife.

No way, if you don't kill the other people, the other party will kill you.

The few people whose trust has been broken can only stop the weapons in their hands when there is only one person left.

Keir ignored these people and strode towards the guy by the wall.

Although the other party couldn't see it, they guessed that Kiel was not a monster but a human being just by the sound of footsteps on the wooden floor. At this time, the man immediately retracted his body and leaped to one side, as if he had calculated his movement correctly. The place where he landed was the entrance of an upward ladder.

But this person had a good idea, but he ignored Kiel's reaction and speed. Kiel still remembered how to quickly rescue the local soldiers who might be poisoned, so he didn't give this person another chance at all, and directly held the long sword instead. After catching up with the man, he directly held down the other's foot with one hand, and then stabbed down fiercely with the long sword.

With a bang, the long sword accurately pierced the opponent's trousers and calf, and even a part of the shinbone couldn't stop the power of the long sword's hunting, and was pierced along, nailing the man to the ground.

"Ahhh! My leg, what's going on? It hurts!"

The little leader of the gang immediately grabbed his leg with one hand and waved the dagger in his hand with the other, trying to force Keir back.

But Kiel just kicked something on the man's back, kicking the crossbow on the man's back to pieces, and then ignored the man.

In the middle of the room, there were only two thugs standing in a group at this time, and the others were either cut and fell to the ground, or lay down on the ground with a machete on their heads that cut into the skull. There was no movement on the ground.

Keir was not afraid of the machetes in the hands of the remaining two men, and directly punched one of the thugs in a sneak attack, knocking him out heavily. Then he raised his left hand, blocked another person's knife with the hardened cowhide on his arm, and then took the machete from this person's hand.

Snapped!

Kiel slapped the thug who was still standing with his right hand directly, but instead slapped the slightly confused thug sober.

"Answer me, spare you. How to activate the mechanism and open the main hall door at the back door?"

Kiel grabbed the man by the collar and asked fiercely.

"Huh? What? Who are you? Who are you? A monster? A monster?"

With two backhand slaps, the man was completely awake, even if he couldn't see anything, he knew that the monster probably wouldn't slap him in the face.

"How do you put down the mechanism in the main hall of the back door? Say it quickly!"

Keel asked again.

The man answered honestly: "Push the mechanism gear with the text of the main hall into the bayonet, and then push the wheel that needs five people to push."

Just when this person finished speaking, the little gang leader who was nailed to the ground behind his back said, "Haha, how do you know if what he said is true? It might be a lie, hehe, you Want to save the lives of those soldiers, it’s too late, too late, poison will fall from the sky, and poison all those same black-hearted guys to death! Haha, hiss! What’s going on!”

It turned out that this man wanted to grab the blade of Kiel's long sword and pull it out from the ground, but when he held the blade with one hand, his own fingers snapped one by one fell off.

The sharp magic material blade cannot be touched with hands.

Although the man was terrified, the pain after the injury actually covered up the pain of his fingers being cut off. He also knew that this would not work, so he immediately held the hilt of the hunting sword with his other hand, trying to lift the long sword from the ground. Proposed.

But no matter how hard the man tried, he couldn't move the long sword to kill him.

A spiritual weapon is only capable of being wielded by its master in battle, or with far superior strength.

But this little boss is not one of the two.

So no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't move.

Kiel glanced at the guy behind him and stopped caring. He threw the thug in his hand on the ground. Kiel hurried to a corner of the room, where there was a wheel on the ground. Several people walked on it and pushed it The thick wooden rod in the center can be rotated, and then the wooden rod drives the mechanism below to rotate to transmit the power.

The control is to rely on the horizontal transmission wooden pole on the side wall leading to several places. A sliding iron-clad wooden gear is fixed on one end of the wooden pole. Push the gear, and then push the human wheel, and the corresponding mechanism will be Start the activity.

There are many connected gears on the nearby wall, leading to all parts of the house. At first glance, it is very complicated.

But fortunately, each gear has the position of the corresponding mechanism engraved on it, and Kiel immediately found two related gears in the main hall of the back door, one with the passage blocking on it, and the gate blocking on the other.

Kiel immediately pushed in the gear blocked by the gate, connecting the mechanism to the power.

But then Keir was dumbfounded, because it is obvious that the mechanism is heavy, and there are several power transmissions between them, and the rough mechanism of wood has a serious loss of efficiency.

To activate or deactivate the main mechanism on the other side of the house, at least five thugs must be pushed in the power room here.

But at this time, a gang leader in this room was being nailed to the ground. The other thugs died, and the injured fainted. Only one thug seemed to be able to come up to help although his body was covered with scars.

But how can I ask that person to help, as long as I don't make trouble. Keir knew that time was running out, and he had no other way to think about it, so he could only try it himself.

Fortunately, after training, he was already stronger than ordinary people. During the Harvest Festival last autumn, he was also strengthened by the festival ceremony of the God of Saturn, and his strength strengthened a little.

"I don't know if I can do it."

he thought so.

Put your hands on the push bar of the running wheel, put your feet back, and shrink your body slightly to facilitate the exertion of your legs and feet.

Next to him, the little leader nailed to the ground couldn't hear Kiel's voice, so he immediately guessed what was going on, and immediately mocked: "Hahahaha, you idiot, it's impossible to be alone Promoting the agency, you just wait, wait for those ￥#￥ soldiers to die in the house, maybe you can hear their wailing from here in the house? Haha."

Keir didn't refute the man's words, he held his breath and pushed with all his strength.

"Woo-"

Just for a moment, Kiel's face turned red, he exerted all his strength, pushed his arms forward, and kicked his legs **** the ground, but the rotating shaft of the whole mechanism only made a slight noise, and it didn't move at all.

"Hahahaha, I laughed so hard, hahahaha."

The man fell to the ground and completely gave up his plan to escape. He smiled and listened carefully to Keel's side while pricking up his ears.

"Ahahaha, useless, useless. Hahahaha."

Keir gritted his teeth and tried hard to push the crossbar in his hand forward, but no matter how hard he exerted, the thing would not move at all, at most it would only make a slight noise.

He slacked off, there was nothing he could do, could he just watch the local soldiers die in such a humiliating and helpless way?

I don't know if it's because of anxiety or the sweat left by the heat running down Kiel's face under the helmet~www.readwn.com~ Kiel was panting, but for some reason, he thought of Knight Crowe. I don't know what to do if it is the other party.

'Isn't this something that can be turned with a push of the hand? '

Crow Knight would certainly say so.

Of course Knight Crowe would say that, because he is a very powerful knight.

Knight, knight?

Keir froze for a moment, and seemed to recall what Knight Crowe had said to him a few days ago.

Life energy, ancient secrets, the origin of knights, monster meat, control the life energy in the body with your heart, feel them, they are the citizens of your body, and you are the king of your body.

Feel them, communicate with them, control and order them, the people of the magic empire that have been transformed from generation to generation have this ability.

Just get inspired, get resources, and master the method.

-

Kiel's heart sank, and he stretched his hand towards a leather bag at his waist. As soon as he stretched his hand in, he took it out as if he had been stung by a bee.

But Kiel showed a smile under the visor, because the life energy in his hand was spontaneously resisting the life energy of the invading Crow Knight just now.

He senses them.

Now, Keir tried his best not to lose this feeling, not only perceiving them on the palm, but also extending his perception to the arm, body, another arm, waist, buttocks, thigh, calf through the connection between them , the soles of the feet.

His body is a kingdom, inhabited by a lot of people who have increased in recent times, and now, their king needs their help.

In Kiel's gradually excited gasps, he gave his subjects the first official order.

—Push the bar in front of you with all your might—
