Byron's Blade

"Mu Li! Stop!" Rui Qiao shouted loudly from behind, but Mu Li was like a gust of wind, and disappeared in a flash, and she couldn't catch up no matter what.This guy's speed is terrifying, he is worthy of the title of "Assassin", the speed makes Rui Qiao really powerless.

In the blink of an eye, Mu Li arrived at the scene of the man's violence. She ran extremely fast, but made very little movement. In addition, she was approaching from behind, so the man didn't even notice that someone was approaching, maybe he didn't even notice it subconsciously. I don't think anyone will be meddling.

So Mu Li went up and kicked the man on the back with his army boots, sending him rolling two or three meters away with a strong force.The man was stunned for a moment, and he heard a cold and harsh female voice, full of anger, and shouted at him:

"what are you doing?!"

He took a closer look, and found that it was actually a heroic female soldier, staring at her angrily, as if there were flames burning in the dark eyes.

When the man saw the soldier, he subconsciously became afraid, and replied tremblingly:

"My lord...I'm sorry...I'm sorry..."

Mu Li didn't care what he was talking about, and directly untied the military belt around his waist, took off the jacket of the general's uniform, and put it on the woman in her thirties.The woman was trembling all over, clutching Mu Li tightly with tears on her face, and said in pieces:

"Save my daughter, please save her..."

Mu Li patted her hand comfortingly: "Don't worry, you wait for me."

After finishing speaking, he stood up again, put the armed belt directly on his shoulders, then strode forward, dragged the man by his hair, and walked towards the alley where another man abducted the little girl.

The man let out a howling like a pig, trying to struggle out of Mu Li's drag, but this female soldier was born with supernatural power, the power was so terrifying that his scalp was about to be torn off, and he rolled his eyes in pain.Can't help shouting:

"They are rebels, soldiers help rebels, don't you want to mess around? I'm collecting debts legally! Don't meddle in your own business!"

"Shut up! Follow me honestly, so as not to suffer!" Mu Li's tone was extremely fierce and murderous, and he pulled out the saber from the scabbard hanging on his armed belt with a clang, and pressed it against the man's neck. The man was so frightened that his face turned purple, and he didn't dare to talk anymore.

Mu Li dragged the man all the way into the alley, the passers-by around were stunned, and the entire downtown square began to commotion.Rui Qiao, who came from behind, was quick to wit, and while evacuating the crowd, shouted:

"Military affairs! Idle people, etc., evacuate immediately!"

Damn Mu Li, you have hurt me this time, Rui Qiao was crazily complaining in her heart, while guiding away the skeptical onlookers.

As soon as he entered the alley, Mu Li heard the girl's scream, that hoarse cry, clearly the situation was very critical.Mu Li gritted his teeth, grabbed the head of the man who had already been controlled, and slammed it hard against the wall next to him, and the man was knocked unconscious immediately.Then Mu Li left the man behind and rushed straight to the source of the sound.

After running a few steps into the alley and turning right, Mu Li saw that the man who had just abducted the little girl was pressing on the little girl in an extremely narrow gap, and the little girl's pants had been completely torn off. And the beast was about to succeed, the girl cried and roared in despair, but she had no choice but to struggle no matter how hard she was, she was no match for the man on her body.

Mu Li only felt that his crown was bursting with anger, and all the blood in his body rushed to his head.She stepped forward with a saber in hand, stretched out her left hand, pulled the clothes on the man's back, and dragged him out.The man let out an exclamation that was caught off guard, and before he had time to react, he saw a flash of the blade, a chill in his crotch, and then a pair of fierce black eyes appeared in front of him:

"The next cut will be your neck." It was as if the hell devil's voice made him tremble like a sieve, and he lost control immediately. Mu Li punched him on the bridge of the nose, and he passed out instantly.

Mu Li didn't really use the knife, she still knew how to measure it. Although she was extremely angry, she still had reason.It is enough to teach these two hooligans a lesson and save the mother and daughter, she does not want to expand the situation any further.

The girl in the gap was limp on the ground, unable to stand up at all, Mu Li carried her out, and helped tidy up the girl's underwear, so that she could barely hide her embarrassment.The girl was so frightened that she couldn't say a word, her whole body was shaking, her body was twitching, her breathing couldn't be steady at all, it was unknown whether it was from crying or fright.Looking closely, I found that she should actually be thirteen or fourteen years old, but her body is unusually thin, and she looks to be in her early ten years.A small face is very delicate, but the neck that should be fair and tender is now covered with ferocious scratches, and the black collar on the neck looks extremely dazzling.Dust mixed with tears stuck to her face, she was a little dirty, she was as light as a feather in her arms, and her bones could be touched, it was really pitiful.

When Mu Li carried the girl out of the alley, due to Rui Qiao's guidance, there were not many onlookers in the square outside.Seeing her coming out, Rui Qiao immediately stepped forward and said:

"Hey! Is the matter settled? Where are the two men?"

"I fainted in the alley, I didn't kill them, don't worry about them." Mu Li replied coldly, then ignored Rui Qiao, and rushed towards the mother with the girl in his arms.

The mother was wearing Mu Li's military uniform and was sitting paralyzed on the ground of the square. Seeing Mu Li approaching with her daughter in her arms, her ashen face instantly came to life. own daughter.

"She's fine, she just suffered some skin trauma, don't worry." Mu Li comforted.

"Thank you, thank you officer." The woman was visibly relieved, her voice was so humble that she knelt on the ground with her daughter and kowtowed to Mu Li.Mu Li hurriedly stepped aside, turned sideways to help them up.

"I can't help it, get up quickly. I'm just lifting a finger." Mu Li felt his throat was choked, and he was very uncomfortable.

The woman wiped her hands on her tattered clothes, then took off Mu Li's military uniform, carefully folded it neatly, wiped off the dust, and handed it back to Mu Li with a bowed body as if presenting some kind of tribute.Watching her movements, Mu Li felt sour in his heart, and silently took back his military uniform, but didn't know what to say.

"The officer has a good heart. My daughter and I cannot implicate you. You can go away quickly, so as not to be gossiped and cause trouble."

Mu Li didn't move for a while, but the woman stopped persuading her, and with her daughter who had calmed down, she bowed deeply to Mu Li again, then the mother and daughter supported each other, and limped out of the square go.

When Mu Li passed by the little girl, he could clearly see the resentment on the little girl's face. She gritted her teeth, clenched her fists, trying to hold back her tears, but she didn't even look at Mu Li.When her mother asked her to bow, she bowed, and when she asked her to kneel, she knelt down, but Mu Li knew that she was not grateful to Mu Li from the bottom of her heart. At this moment, in her heart, anger and hatred completely overwhelmed the so-called gratitude, Mu Li His rescue cannot give her the slightest comfort at all.

It was almost dusk, and the mother and daughter, whose names were not even known, dragged their injured bodies and staggered under the setting sun, their shadows being drawn so long.Mu Li stood stiffly on the spot, looking at their backs, feeling as if he had knocked over a bottle of five flavors, not knowing what it was like.

Rui Qiao silently stood beside her, and after a long while, she patted Mu Li on the shoulder until the mother and daughter had completely disappeared, and said:

"Come on, I'll buy you a drink."

On the other side of the square, on a bench for people to rest, Lanny and Per were sitting side by side.Seeing that Mu Li and Rui Qiao were about to leave, Per couldn't help saying:

"Okay, the play is over, I wonder if Miss Freesman can give me a favor and have a glass of wine together?"

Lanny stood up, straightened the corners of her skirt, and said with a smile:

"how do you feel?"

"How about what?" Per asked inexplicably.

"The scene just now."

"I don't feel anything, isn't it normal? Even if the second lieutenant's sense of justice is overflowing this time, the final result is not unexpected at all." Pell shrugged.

"Hmm... That's right..." Lanny was noncommittal, and then changed the subject very abruptly, "Would you like to have some mint wine, I heard that the one at the Soldiers Club tastes good."

Pell stood up with a smile and said, "Don't forget your treat."

******

Perhaps it was a coincidence among coincidences that after the incident at the café square in the afternoon, they went to the same bar at the same time in the evening.When Lanny and Per entered the bar and saw Mu Li and Rui Qiao sitting at the bar in the distance, Per could not help but sigh:

"Lanny, I'm starting to admire your fate with the second lieutenant of the assassin. I think you really need to go up and say hello."

Lanny smiled and said, "Okay, as you said."

Lani and Pere signaled to the waiter who came to receive them to go to the bar near Muli Ruiqiao, and the waiter led them there.At that time, Mu Li was drinking wine in a low mood. She rarely drank wine, and she was not used to foreign wine. She ordered a glass of Margarita, which was the only foreign wine she had ever drunk. There is a difference in memory.Rui Qiao sat beside her, with a glass of whiskey on ice in front of her, chatting with her without saying a word:

"This bar is run by veterans, and many Alta soldiers love to come here. We soldiers enjoy a [-]% discount..." She paused, seeing that Mu Li didn't respond, and sighed:

"If you're not happy, let's go back."

Upon hearing this, Mu Li hurriedly said: "Sorry for spoiling your interest. I'm fine, let's sit down for a while."

"You... What the hell happened today? Bewitched? Fortunately, I'm smart, otherwise things will get serious, how do you think it will end?" Rui Qiao complained.

Mu Li smiled wryly and shook his head, but didn't speak.

"Take a look at your own faction test, see if there is anything abnormal." Rui Qiao whispered to her ear.

Mu Li's heart trembled, he quietly opened the bracelet ID, directly entered the faction interface, and found that he was still in the lawful neutral camp, and the camp deviation value: lawful +22, neutral +5, this statistic can be called lawful A paragon of neutrality.

"It should be fine." She breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's good, this matter is over, don't do this kind of thing again in the future, I have a heart attack." Rui Qiao said.

Mu Li was silent for a while, took another sip of wine, and asked hesitantly:

"Aqiao, what exactly is that black collar for? Is it just to mark the traitors?"

Rui Qiao's eyes widened, she opened her mouth, and before she could answer, she suddenly heard a cold but not harsh female voice behind her, accompanied by a faint fragrance like a plum blossom, a delicate and beautiful woman, very natural sat down beside Mu Li.

"It is a torture tool for execution. If the traitor is detected to betray again, or does anything that is judged by the Nine Gods system as a potential threat of the first level, then the black collar will be activated. After a countdown of 5 seconds, it will be sent to the traitor's neck. Inject the neurotoxin. The mutineer will die in less than 0.7 seconds."

In a leisurely tone, she said something that made one's hair stand on end.Mu Li felt a shiver involuntarily all over her body, turned to look at the person, and saw a face that left a deep impression on her.She was stunned for a moment, and blurted out:

"Lanny Freesman?"

"Hi Mu Li, long time no see." Lan Ni smiled slightly, and the flowers bloomed immediately, making Mu Li's heart tremble.

On the other end, Rui Qiao jumped down excitedly from the side of the bar, quickly stood up straight and saluted:

"It's an honor to meet you, Major Friesman!"

"And me." Another dissatisfied voice sounded, and Per also showed up and sat beside Lani.

Rui Qiao was even more surprised: "Miss Andres!"

Who?Mu Li was dumbfounded.
