Mercenaries and Adventurers

As soon as the thief servant was blinded, although he was shocked, he didn't panic. He only heard Kiel's footsteps and locked on Kiel's position. Then he swiped his left hand from his waist and pulled out the throwing knife , throwing it with a swing of the arm.

His movements were fast, throwing knives one after another from his hand, tightly pinning Kiel in place, and he had to block from left to right with a metal shield to resist the incoming flying knives.

In other words, if Keir hadn't used the pill to speed up the reaction, he would not be able to deal with the thief's counterattack at this time. Most of them will charge up against the shield and fight close to the enemy.

But he reacted quickly at this time, but stayed where he was because of his capable opponent's counterattack.

Dang dang dang.

After continuously receiving the flying knives with the shield, Kiel looked at the thief again, and found that although the opponent was blinded at this time, his movements were still dexterous. He rolled a few times sideways and disappeared into the darkness of the training ground.

Kiel turned the long sword, letting the emitted white light shine in the past to find traces of the enemy.

The very messy underground training ground has a lot of shelters, all kinds of false walls and windows are everywhere, several wooden busts that were used as targets by the thieves apprentices before, now under the not very bright light, all of them look like before. of thieves.

Keir rushed straight up and kicked over a large wooden box, but it was empty and no one was hiding inside.

He pushed open another fake window, but there was no one behind the one-person-high fake window.

"Where did you go?" He muttered, although he couldn't find anyone, he roughly judged that the other party hadn't fled.

With a whoosh, as soon as Kiel muttered, a throwing knife was thrown from his side by the thief.

The throwing knife was thrown from Kiel's blind spot. Although he heard a slight noise, he didn't react. The flying knife slammed into his armor.

"Uh." With a muffled grunt, Kiel immediately shrank back and turned, with his sword and shield facing the direction of the attack.

The flying knife was inserted into his right arm. Although it was protected by the hard cowhide armor, the tip of the flying knife pierced through his armor, and one to two centimeters of the knife tip pierced his arm. .

Kiel turned the long sword upside down, and knocked the flying knife off the armor with two taps. With a low groan of pain, Kiel felt the wound on his arm bleeding.

But not very serious.

He thought of Knight Crowe's teaching that after life energy is manipulated, it can be used to stop bleeding and repair the body, but the effect of low-level manipulation is limited.

But something is better than nothing, he calmed down, and while using his instinct to protect against possible attacks, he touched the wooden doll in the leather pouch at his waist, and was stimulated by that thing, and then activated himself to fight against himself. Manipulation of life energy.

‘Part, not too much, just a part of life energy. ’ Keel was thinking in his heart, trying to move part of the life energy in the trunk of the body to the injured right arm as much as possible.

With this keen manipulation of the life energy in his body, he even clearly felt the blood loss from the wound on his arm.

The tip of the flying knife pierced part of the skin and muscles of the arm, and part of the blood vessels and muscle tissue under the skin were cut off by the metal. He could clearly feel the thoughts of this part of the body.

'They need help. ’ Keir realized.

Although some of the substances in the blood were already coagulating as much as possible to block the broken blood vessels, they were still fighting at this moment, with armor on their arms and a heavy long sword in their hands to hunt.

The muscles on the right arm are working hard, which greatly affects the bleeding of the wound.

At this moment, Keir misses his Saturn guard badge very much. The treasure's ability to heal minor injuries and ailments is so convenient.

Thinking of this, Kiel hated that werewolf to death, not only killed him, devoured his heart, but also destroyed his treasure while killing him.

"Damn werewolf!" Keel cursed bitterly.

But I didn't expect that Kiel's cursing to himself actually confused the thief Yisi.

-

Even though he couldn't see anything with his eyes, the thief Yisi's dodging movements were sharp, and it didn't look like he was affected by blindness at all.

That's not the case, it's just because he himself is too familiar with this small underground training ground.

Close your eyes and not rely on sight. He was able to walk around the entire training ground with ease, and even silently climbed over several false windows, found the cash box behind the window, and groped to open the lock hanging on it with his hands.

Of course, he could do this, but none of the apprentice thieves under him could do so.

Those young people are still too arrogant and too inferior.

With the expansion of the Yisi Knife Gang in Grass Rat Town, those apprentice thieves immediately realized the power in their hands, and it only took a few short years for the simple teenagers to turn bad.

The thieves did not stop this, this is a test.

To test his apprentices who have the mind to strengthen themselves in the temptation of power.

Not to mention whether this kind of test is too much for boys and girls, the Thieves Guild has never been too much, and tests are everywhere.

The thief standing silently in the shadows suddenly remembered what happened back then.

A similar test naturally happened to him. At that time, the old thief who taught him lied about going out to do errands, and handed over the underground forces of a whole city to his group of apprentices.

What a power that is. The old thief known as the "Hand of Darkness" is the city's underground lord, and more than a dozen gang forces similar to the Yisi Knife Gang serve him.

Several casinos, a whole street of famous red houses, two underground illegal trading markets, nearly a thousand gang thugs, several smuggling teams, and the control of dozens of professional thieves.

It's all in the hands of a group of young people no more than twenty years old like them.

A lot of people have fallen, they are flattered by the compliments of the people around them, they are secretly and even openly offered money at their fingertips, there are more beautiful women in the house, and when they can get what they want, many people have fallen up.

Of course, the thief Yisi survived the test back then, because those old thieves' subordinates couldn't give him what he wanted.

Unlike others, revitalizing a down and out family far away is not something these secret subordinates can do in a short time.

When he came back to his senses, the thief Yi Si shook his head, thinking that it was okay, the apprentices finally had a golden part to take. Some people bully others with their power, while others help those in need; some are arrogant, while others are cautious in their words and deeds;

But when he was about to change to an equally dark position under blinding conditions, a young soldier with a blessed weapon cursed not far away: "Damn werewolf!"

Um? werewolf?

The thief went through the news about the werewolf in his mind, and was somewhat inexplicably wondering why the young man on the other side would say this word. Is there any news that he doesn't know about the grass mouse town?

For a moment, the thief was in a state of confusion, wondering if there was something behind his back that caused him to be like this today.

Unable to bear it, he opened his mouth while moving in the blinding state: "Did the werewolf destroy my power? Who is that person?"

The voice was grim and cold.

As a result, the sudden words from the dark corner confused Kiel.

Kiel, who was just about to say what nonsense you were talking about, immediately shut up and reacted, the corners of his mouth under the visor curled up, and he said meanly, "Guess?"

A throwing knife hurled from the darkness was the rogue's answer.

"Are you lying to me?"

Keir smiled lightly, and opened his mouth to talk nonsense: "There is something missing from our army merchants, what do you think is it?" He integrated his previous experience into his lies.

The thieves didn't reply, but the throwing knives stopped coming.

Of course, it's not that the flying knives are used up. According to the volume and weight of the flying knives, the number of flying knives is generally between eight and thirty-two. Thirty-two small throwing knives that the thief Yi Si used for the apprentices to practice, of course, the big flying knives are similar to daggers, except for the smaller handle, there is no difference.

"Although Gerbo is dark and cruel, he can't be a werewolf!"

The thief's voice sounded from the other side, obviously changing positions, but Keel couldn't hear the sound of the other party moving. It's really weird. Obviously the other party was blinded, but why could he hide like this lightly as if he hadn't been blinded? rise up, and attack him from the dark.

Kiel even wondered if the other party was playing him, but soon he shook his head. From the fact that the thief flinched and hid, he could see that the blessing of the Church of the Sun God on the long sword was still effective, but the other party was weird.

"If you say it's not, then it's not? Listen to me and tell you." After speaking, Kiel put the dead man who was killed by the werewolf attack on their merchant accompanying the army.

Soon, I don't know if it is effective, but the thieves seem to believe part of it.

"How? Do you believe what I said? It's all true, the thief Yisi, you released a monster! A werewolf with thief skills? Hehe, I can't guess how many people will die next."

"Nonsense! If you can come here, Gerbo must have been defeated by you! Otherwise, why would you come here!" The thief's emotions could be felt from the words.

Keir struck while the iron was hot, and lied as soon as he opened his mouth: "Who said I came here after defeating the werewolf? That guy surprised me when he turned into a monster, but all the gang thugs I defeated and planned to capture alive were killed by that monster. "Kill tapped his long sword on the wall next to him twice.

"If it weren't for my blessing weapon to drive away the werewolf, how could I still be alive?"

"Impossible, impossible. You are lying! You must be lying!"

The thief tried his best to refute, but it seemed that the thief's emotional words had exposed his position.

Kiel's eyes widened. At the same time, he manipulated the long sword to hunt and kill, increasing the release of white light on the surface of the sword body, using the method of consuming divine power to provide better lighting.

In the gradually brightening underground training ground, the thief who kept speaking against Kiel gradually showed his whereabouts.

The thief cleverly hid himself behind a wooden half-length doll practicing dagger skills. If he didn't pay attention, he couldn't find the other party's actual location at all.

Kiel licked his lips, no longer responding to the thief's rebuttal, it was enough.

He took a deep breath. When he was speaking, the blood on his right arm had been stopped, and even because of the influence of life energy, the wound was tightly glued together.

Kier Kong waved his arm, feeling that the wound had healed, and then spotted the thief's position, and rushed towards him quickly.

Armor boots stomped on the wooden floor, and the thief Isi immediately realized that his position was exposed, but he was not annoyed, and immediately shrank back, dodging and walking towards the narrator.

But he who was blinded by the whiteness in front of him didn't know that the small half of the underground training ground was extremely bright at this time. Although his figure was nimble, fast and silent, he was seen by Kiel clearly and clearly.

The thieves had to dodge the props and furniture in the training ground, but Keel rushed forward, quickly approaching without hindrance, and quickly approached the thieves.

"Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa !

The thief couldn't see his surroundings, but he understood the roaring young warrior. He threw several throwing knives out in a panic, but all of them were blocked by Kiel's shield. Noisy, Keel leaned closer.

The thief retreated quickly, no longer throwing the throwing knife, and drew out the dagger with the single arm of his left hand. He gritted his teeth and did not swing it out. He was going to use this weapon to exchange his life for his life in close combat when Kiel approached him.

But the thieves who were backing could no longer notice what was behind them, bumped and knocked down a wooden chair with their legs.

When he fell, he used the short sword to support his body so as not to fall, but his whole body was hit from the front by Kiel's shield.

boom!

With a bang, the heavy Kiel ran into the difficult thief with his shield.

Even with a mask on, Kiel could see the shape of the opponent's face under the mask, and the metal shield hit the opponent's body head-on. This force broke several ribs at least.

However, under the noise-absorbing leather jacket on the thief, it seemed that there was some means of protection. With such a fatal blow, the thief was not seriously injured.

Even though his head was still dizzy, the dagger that had just been inserted on the ground was pulled out from the ground immediately, and he slashed at Kiel with his backhand.

Kiel just bumped the long sword, and the long sword, which was far heavier than the opponent's weapon, repelled the thief's counterattack.

However, the thief did not give up, and his desire to fight back was high. As soon as he swung the dagger into his forehand, he still slashed at Kiel's head when he was pushed to the ground by Kiel.

"Don't admit defeat!" Keir cursed, lowering his head and bumping into the opponent's dagger instead.

The short sword that didn't have enough swing distance was not strong enough, but it was knocked away by Kiel with his helmet, and then Kiel stretched out the long sword and wrapped it around the palm of the opponent's hilt, blood splattered, the short sword fell, and together Also dropped were several fingers of the thief.

"Ah!" The thief yelled in pain, obviously the pain of a finger being strangled by a weapon is far more painful than a whole arm being severed.

"I surrender! I surrender!" the thief shouted.

With a clang, Kier pierced the long sword around the thief's neck, and then pulled off the thief's mask with his right hand.

But he didn't expect that there was no subdued and unhappy expression under the mask. The thief who was knocked down by the front of the metal shield was hung by the shield, and part of the flesh was rolled up, looking scary.

But the expression on his face was a determined smile.

Kiel immediately felt a shudder when he saw the **** smiling face.

'This guy is not about to surrender! ! '

He thought so.

Sure enough, when Kiel reached out to pull the thief's mask, the thief broke off a few fingers on his left hand, but after hesitating for a moment, he still touched a leather bag on his left waist.

There was only one thing in this tightly wrapped leather bag.

Only the index finger and thumb of the left hand were left to take out the contents of the leather bag resolutely. It was a medicine bottle contained in a crystal vial.

The bottle is only the size of a finger, but the contents inside are half liquid and half gas, constantly turning and changing, obviously very unstable.

The mouth of the bottle is a delicate metal unscrewing bottle mouth, and the thief with only **** can't open it for a short time, but he doesn't need to, just smash the bottle itself.

Because the distance between Kiel and him was too close at this time.

"Hahahaha, young man." The thief grinned at his injured mouth and jaw, and the teeth in his mouth were loose and fell out, but he didn't care: "Don't even think about capturing any official thief from the Thieves Guild alive!"

"Let's die together!"

With a hoarse roar, the thief slammed the crystal bottle in his left hand against the elf shield between the two of them.

With a snap, the body of the bottle was hit on the surface of the strong and light elf metal shield, and it was directly shattered.

The half-liquid and half-gas substance inside exploded immediately, expanding and enveloping the two of them instantly.

Keel closed his mouth and nose tightly, and closed his eyes at the same time, and instantly got up and stepped back.

But the thief fell to the ground calmly, he opened his left hand, muttering something like werewolf, apprentice, and hope not to come back.

Moments later, his face started to melt, especially the wound on his face, followed by the wound on his left hand, the wound on his right shoulder.

The flesh and blood melted into scorching liquid droplets, seeping out from his clothes, and when it spread into the body, the thief curled up in pain, but soon, his whole body gradually collapsed, the clothes were not damaged, but his flesh and blood disappeared Nothing to see, except for the bones.

The long sword hunted and killed the white light shining brightly, irradiating these terrifying changes. It seemed that the things in the crystal bottle were very specific to the flesh and blood alone.

But what about Keel?

-

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!"

Kiel didn't feel well~www.readwn.com~Even if he closed his eyes, mouth and nose tightly, some gas still sprayed in from the opening on the visor.

At the same time, the front of his body was also contaminated with a lot of this thing. He immediately dropped the shield in his hand and kept stepping back to stay away from the space where the thing exploded.

The underground training ground is a closed space, and the air is flowing, but it is not very obvious, so as long as you stay away, you can leave the range of the outbreak.

But the burning sensation on his face made Keir feel very bad. After he fell all the way back to the wall on the other side of the training ground, he forced himself to calm down in the excruciating pain.

He used the life energy that he could still control at this time, and rushed to his head with all his strength.

Of course, he didn't forget the knight's teachings in his panic, and these life energies were only gathered on the skin, and did not go to other delicate body organs in the head.

The feeling of melting pain eased slightly, but his life energy was also constantly decreasing.

This is just a palliative, not a permanent solution.

After thinking nervously for a while, Keel felt that in such a life-threatening situation, he had to rely on his backer at this time—Ms. Apolfina.

Although he had already entered the dreamland once today, Keel remembered that the other party said at the time that entering the dreamland consumed the magic power spontaneously produced by his body that day. If he entered the dreamland for the second time in one day, he would have to rely on his own Energy to pay the bills.

"I can't care less! Try!"

Keel concentrated, and immediately asked the elven ring on his chest instead of his heart to let him enter the dreamland.

The ring is a bit reluctant, but reluctance is not impossible.

Then, following Kiel's strong will, his whole body instantly shrank and disappeared in place.
