"Who are we waiting for?...Yao Knight? Didn't she say yesterday that she would go to the Knights Association very early today?"
"Why wait for Yao Knight's sister, what does she have to do with the infected?"
"...Are you really sure that Yao Knight's younger sister is still at home? Why don't I go and make sure, so as not to waste time."
There are so many questions like this that even Xia Wan is surprised that Shuang Xing is the type who is so easily confused—of course, in Shuang Xing's eyes, she doesn't know that Xia Wan's little head is thinking whats the matter.
Even if he already knew that Xia Wan's behavior would sometimes become very weird, he had prepared himself mentally in advance, but when he was really led to a place that had nothing to do with today's purpose, he curled up like a spy It is understandable that Froststar would keep throwing out one question after another like a cannonball when squeezed into the lush bushes on the side of the road.
"In short, don't be impatient? I can assure you that Maria is the key person we can connect with the Red Pine Knights... The Red Pine Knights are the great knights who lead most of the infected The leader of the hospital, the infected knights we saw in the hospital basically belong to the Red Pine Knights... I will explain to you later about other things, we have to be quiet, so as not to be discovered by others gone."
In the end, I found it too troublesome to explain one by one. Xia Wan could only use her hands to pull away the vines that were in the way, and took Shuang Xing's hand again, using these words to comfort Frost Xing. why, lest they talk too selflessly and ignore the business.
The hot chats when you are sitting on the sidelines will only appear in various works of art. In real life, you should try to keep quiet and focused, although Xia Wan has neither experience in staying at the site nor doing such private actions with others. , but she felt it should be.
In fact, the mansion of the Linguang family is located in a relatively remote area of the Great Knights. Most of the mansions of these aristocrats...wealthy people are in this kind of place due to the land occupation. There were hardly any people to be seen on this wide avenue, and even the only Wuxumeng who might spot them, those Wuxumeng who were in charge of keeping an eye on Xia Wan, had long been concealed by her using a black box on the way here The ability is thrown away, there is no need to worry about whose ears their chatting voice will reach, even if they are now playing in the middle of the avenue, they only need to worry about whether they will be caught by Maria who is not sure when she will go out Just found out.
Fortunately, after hearing these words, Shuang Xing calmed down, shut up obediently, and together with Xia Wan, focused all their attention on the gate of Linguang's house in the distance. Only the hands they held did not let go. open.
In the silence that finally came again, it didn't take long, around two or three o'clock in the afternoon, when the sun was high above the head and hadn't slanted much, Maria's figure in silver-white armor appeared in the out of their field of vision.
"...Sure enough, it is right to come early, otherwise you will really miss it."
Muttering in a low voice, Xia Wan looked at Maria who didn't know anything, and the little uneasiness in her heart finally dissipated——she was also worried whether she came too early or too late, although I asked Maria on the sidelines last night, and got the answer that she would go to the bar to watch the game with everyone after finishing the remaining work in her small blacksmith workshop, but who would have imagined that she would Going out when there are four or five hours before the start of the game, if you follow the order described in the plot honestly, you will definitely miss it.
Beside her, Frost Star, who also saw Maria, also asked softly: "She really hasn't gone out yet... What should I do now, go over and say hello?"
"No, we follow her."
"Following her? ... I see."
I just finished stalking, and now I'm stalking again, and the target is my colleague's sister.
Only Shuang Xing, who had unconditional trust in Xia Wan, could so easily suppress her full of doubts and choose to do what she said first.
So, the two of them followed Maria far away, taking advantage of the cover of shrubs pruned into the same shape one after another by the side of the avenue.
If they used the concealment ability of the black box, it would be easier for them to follow, but it's not the time yet, the black box's useful time is limited, and now they don't even know where the Wuxia League is.
Originally, Xia Wan thought that she would be able to find the Wuxumeng who should be on the lookout while she was waiting, but she never found the Wuxumeng's location, even using the powerful perception ability of the black box.
This is because, even for the Wuzhou League, unless it is targeting a specific target, it rarely adopts the thankless and easy-to-find behavior of stalking, especially the team led by Platinum. They only need to confirm that Maria The route, and then just ambush at the predetermined location, there is no need to follow at all.
Chapter 170 Kidnapping
And this predetermined location.
It is an inconspicuous dark alley somewhere in the Grand Knight's territory.
In a metropolis full of traffic, there are always some alleys that are dark even in the daytime. Every tourist who comes to the Great Knights, and even every resident of the Great Knights will not easily set foot in the alleys. These alleys are It has become the best place for unarmed alliance operations.
Originally, there was no such alleyway on Maria’s route to the bar, and she was not the kind of character who would be paralyzed at critical moments, but maybe she thought that no matter how arrogant the Wuzhou League was, it would not act in broad daylight. Or maybe the anticipation for tonight's game has overwhelmed her vigilance. In short, seeing the road ahead blocked by a construction warning sign, Maria didn't notice anything unusual, she just stood there and thought for a while. Turned around and walked into the side alley.
Most of them, before they became the Wushameng, were either hunters who shuttled between mountains and fields, or bounty hunters who licked their blood with their knives. They were very good at how to guide, trap, and capture prey .
Rao is that Maria is already a well-known competitive knight——this has nothing to do with the Linguang in her name, it is her own fame gained in the competition. It also doesn't have much resistance when attacked.
Even when Xia Wan and Frost Xing abandoned their cautious approach under the concealment ability of the black box and rushed to catch up, they only saw Maria, who had fallen into a coma, being uploaded by several Assassins of the Unarmored Alliance. tools, and Platinum, who stands beside the Assassins of the Unhelmet Alliance and urges them to work hard to ensure that no accidents occur.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Frost Star frowned tightly and condensed several sharp ice thorns. Just as he was about to aim at the vital points of these Wuxuanmeng and pierce their hearts, Xia Wan forcibly grabbed them. Thanks to it, and the activated black box, the Wuzhou League didn't find them, just like in the plot, it took Maria to the vehicle and walked away from them very smoothly.
"...What are you doing? Why don't you save her?! Aren't those guys the one who stopped us at that time... the Wuzhou League?"
If Xia Wan's weird behavior before was understandable, the current attitude of not saving her life is what surprised Shuang Xing the most.
She couldn't understand why Xia Wan had to watch Maria being kidnapped by the Wuxiu League, and her tone became a lot colder.
However, if you want to get on line with the Red Pine Knights without any obstacles, you have to be like this.
The group of infected people, no matter where they are, they are very vigilant against outsiders. Even Rhode Island operatives who have been working in the hospital for infected people for about a week... Will not let down my guard.
In Xiaoqiu County, it took Xia Wan a full month to gain part of the trust of the Tara people.
That being the case, it can only create a situation of fighting together, just like in Chernobog, when Xia Wan mixed into Rhodes Island.
The trust cultivated in the life-and-death battle, coupled with the identity of Rhode Island's operator, is enough to dispel most of the doubts of the Red Pine Knights.
"Believe me, nothing will happen to Maria. The Wuzhou League kidnapped her to threaten the Yao knights. They will not hurt her easily before the game starts. Now is not the time...Let's go, we have to follow up .”
Time was running out, Xia Wan didn't explain too much to Shuang Xing, and dragged her on the street. Fortunately, in a bustling city-state like the Grand Knight Leader, the speed of the vehicle would not be much faster than that of the legs , and with a black box, it is not difficult for Xia Wan to track down the Wuzhou League.
After chasing all the way, they quickly left the bustling area and entered plot zero.
This time, Wuxuanmeng, who had lost Xia Wan's whereabouts for a long time, failed to show up to stop them, so they could only let them shuttle among the countless operating or abandoned factories in plot zero, and arrived in Mama in a short time. The place where Leah was being held.
It wasn't until Frost Star saw Maria in a coma that she was intact through the dilapidated wall that her gloomy complexion improved a bit, she breathed a sigh of relief, and turned her head to face the exhausted person beside her who was panting heavily. Xia Wan asked: "Now is not the time, when will it be?"
"B-probably... Huha, take a look first, now, what time is it?"
Hearing this, Shuang Xing looked down at his watch and replied: "...in the afternoon, around five o'clock, are you counting the time when the game starts?"
"Well, then there's more... Well, for more than two hours, the medicine they gave Maria wasn't too harsh. Don't worry, let's talk about it after she wakes up."
Saying that, Xia Wan simply sat down on the ground, not caring that the dirty ground stained her black robe with gray marks.
At this time, while the black box is still operating, they should really take a good rest, and then wait for the black box to be fully charged at a place a little further away before considering the next step.
After all, the time when the Red Pine Knights came on stage was halfway through the match between the Yao Knights and the Candle Knights. At that time, Maria had already woken up, and had a not-so-pleasant conversation with Platinum.
Looking at Xia Wan who was sitting on the ground, and then turned to look at Maria who was lying on the ground not far away, Shuang Xing frowned and asked: "... just throw her in the hands of the Wuzhou League More than two hours?...I know you must have a reason for doing this, but isn't this way too risky?"
Even if Frost Star is not very familiar with Maria, that is, in the past few days, he will chat with Xia Wan in the bar with her, a former integration movement member from Ursus, an infected person, With the youngest daughter of Casimir's famous Linguang family, they don't have much in common.
However, in any case, this is also throwing the sister of a colleague, a girl who has met a few times and cannot be called a stranger, into the hands of a group of ruthless executioners.
Even if Xia Wan gave a guarantee that the Wuzhou League would not easily hurt Maria, at least the current situation did not seem so reassuring.
In this regard, Xia Wan calmed down and stood up unsteadily before explaining: "Some things can't be done without taking risks. If there is any accident, I will guarantee her safety no matter what. Don't worry. This is the bottom line of my actions."
"I trust you, so I'm not asking you for an explanation... Well, it looks like it's going to take me a while to get used to your style of action, it's a real chore."
As I have said many times before, Frost Star has unconditional trust in Xia Wan. Even though what Xia Wan does is a little weird and sometimes incomprehensible, her trust will not change. , not so easily changed.
Chapter 170: The Game Begins
The time came to 07:30 in the evening.
At this time, the Great Knight’s Land had just sunk into the afterglow of the sun, and the orange-red sky was stained with night. Most people, including the locals who work and live in the Great Knight’s Land, had already left work, or returned home. Eat a sumptuous dinner, or ask a few friends to get into your favorite bar.
This is a time when work and life have just finished switching, and the Cavaliers Major has grasped this time.
The huge arena was brightly lit, and thousands or even tens of thousands of spectator seats were taken up early. The hustle and bustle of chatting with each other blended with the orderly shouts of fans, forming a wonderful atmosphere—— Even if the ticket price has been skyrocketed, there are countless loyal fans of knight competition who are willing to empty their pockets just to experience this atmosphere in person.
Waiting until a large number of spotlights on the huge stage in the center of the arena shine on the commentary booth in a uniform manner, the main commentator and host of this special tournament————————Mobu Dazui’s familiar figure appeared on the special big screen Only then did the audience gradually quiet down, holding their breath and looking forward to the official start of the game.
"Welcome everyone! Welcome everyone! Welcome to the Casimir National Stadium, welcome to today's special championship site! I am your old friend Mobu Dazui, and I am honored to host this much-anticipated game for you! "
When Big Mouth Mobu gave his welcome speech, every pause could lead to a burst of cheers. This cheer not only pushed the atmosphere of the audience to a higher climax, but also conveyed to the audience through large and small sound collection equipment. Countless spectators sitting in front of the TV.
This is what the Chamber of Commerce is aiming at. Every audience who can watch the Cavaliers Major without spending any money through various channels has the potential to become a core audience.
This is indeed true, but today, among these audiences is a group of completely different people.
"...It's about to start, Amiya. I remember that there should be very little work in the infected person's shelter. Why hasn't Paradise returned yet? And Frost Star, I haven't seen her either."
Thanks to Linguang, today he was able to finish his work early today and lean on the soft sofa to enjoy the leisure time that he should have had during this trip to Casimir, but the doctor's mind was not on the huge TV screen in front of him at all, but to Amiya, who was sitting aside, asked about the whereabouts of Xia Wan and Frost Star.
For Linguang's match, Xia Wan also helped her train for this match, so there is no reason why she would miss it.
However, Xia Wanlian had already anticipated that the doctor would ask this question in advance, and had already informed Amiya, and Amiya explained: "Ah, I forgot to tell you, doctor, Paradise and Frost Star. ...They said they made an appointment with Linguang's sister to watch the game together, so they left early, and they probably won't come back until after the game is over."
"I made an appointment with Linguang's sister... Well, it is true that I can enjoy the feeling of watching the game more over there. It is rare to come to the big knight leader. I should go out and have fun. Amiya, when will we Why don't you take a look at the big knight's collar?"
"...If the work ends early, like today, I have no problem."
Quietly, Li, who just came back from the Supervision Committee, also came to the doctor's side and said, "Hee hee, let me be your tour guide? I know that there are several commercial centers nearby, and they are probably very busy now." .”
Of course, this proposal can only be shelved for the time being, at least today they can't take a look at the big knight's collar, and I'm afraid there won't be a time when work ends early again.
And most importantly, if Rhodes Island wants to visit the Great Knights Territory, it must obtain the approval of the Supervisory Committee, which will also take time.
On the other hand, at the scene of the special championship on the TV screen, Kasimir did not have the tradition of whetting the audience's appetite all the time. After introducing the players of both sides with a few sentences, Big Mouth Mobu announced the start of the game.
Bright Knight, Margaret Linguang, and, Candle Knight, Vivienne Drost.
Two great knights with individual titles, and two young girls in their prime, coincidentally, they are even about the same age.
Perhaps the duel between them is not the highest-level duel in this special championship, but it must be the most gorgeous and entertaining duel.
The light escaping from Margaret's body dimmed the lights in the arena, but the candle flame lit on the candle sword held high by Droste was completely unafraid of this dazzling light.
"...you know what? I have a...remarkable friend."
After the pre-match chat, both sides raised their weapons, Margaret looked at Drost's Originium skill, but still couldn't help but whispered: "Maybe it's not fair to you, Viviana, I already know your spells like the back of my hand."
Obviously, this sentence made Viviana slightly frown. Margaret is not a person who likes to brag, at least she judges so. Since she can say that, she has indeed learned a lot.
After a brief moment of silence, she asked in a soft tone: "...it's the first confrontation, so you can say that... did that friend give you any important information? "
"... She used the same spell as you... no, she used your spell, and now, when I stand here and watch you use this spell, I just realized that it's really... exactly the same."
"Now is not the time to make jokes, Knight Yao... No, according to etiquette, I think I should also address you by your name, Miss Margaret, your joke is not funny at all."
"Ha, it's really puzzling...Yes, I have no way of knowing why she can do such amazing things, but it is the way it is, and even, she let me see more, let me know , Just using spells to counter spells won't work for you."
As Margaret said, the radiance around her gradually subsided, but this did not mean that she gave up the confrontation between Originium skills, but adopted a more sophisticated method. After yesterday's training, , which took quite some time to figure out the way.
Since no matter how dazzling the light is, it can't drive away the shadows under the candlelight, so don't drive it away at all, but use the light as bait, and focus more on the confrontation of the sword itself.
This method worked well, and when Viviana saw Margaret restrained her spell, allowing only the glow to illuminate a small area around her, her complexion changed for the first time.
"Such a targeted spellcasting method... It seems that you do have a great friend. If there is a chance, I would like to meet him."
That would be after the game.
Now, let's focus more on the game itself.
Thinking of this, Viviana put away the slight wavering in her heart, and the two confronted again.
Chapter 170 Second Rescue
Sitting on the messy bricks in an abandoned factory building, Xia Wan suddenly stood up without warning, and said to Frost Star with her eyes closed, "Maria is awake."
"...Finally woke up." Frost Star was not surprised by this at all, she looked down at the time: "It is indeed time, the Yao Knight game has started for more than ten minutes."
"Well, I guess the arena is in full swing, let's go, let's get things over here quickly."
Xia Wan activated the black box, pulled Shuang Xing out of the factory, and walked to the place where Maria was imprisoned by the Wuzhou League a few minutes away.
Without a black box, they couldn't get too close to the Unarmed Alliance. These were either hunters or bounty hunters, and a group of professionally trained assassins from childhood had many ways to detect anyone's approach.
But with the black box, it was different. They walked past the members of the Harmony League who were in charge of the watch without hindrance, and stepped on the stone steps to the second floor of the small building. No one was alert.
In their current position, although they couldn't hear the specific conversation, they could clearly see everything that happened in the room.
After roughly observing the situation, watching the helpless Maria curl up her body and making a defensive posture in front of Platinum and the group of unarmored alliances, Xia Wan said softly: "It seems that it has just begun, let's go in now It's useless, just wait a little longer."
Frost Star also took a look, and replied: "...I've been waiting for so long, and it's not too late, but the leader of the Wuxuan League seems to be weaker than the one we met before. .”
"The Wuzhou League always likes to let the right people do the right things. To deal with Maria, a platinum is enough, and there is no need to use more people than this."
Besides, directly kidnapping the youngest daughter of the Linguang family, this kind of dirty work will only be handed over to Platinum. With Qingjin Roy's personality, [-]% of them will not do it himself, and neither will the other Qingjin Monique. She is the type who can do such things, with her straightforward appearance, let alone threatening Margaret with kidnapping, it is a good thing that Maria was not torn up on the spot.
However, when Shuang Xing heard what Xia Wan said, he really thought of another aspect: "So, you have entered plot zero and violated the agreement, so they should send you out to deal with you." Those who can threaten you?"
Hearing this, Xia Wan hesitated for a while and then nodded: "...[-]% will, but I won't give them that chance."
It's time for the Red Pine Knights to implement the plan to partition the four cities. It's not so much that the Wuzhou League dispatched the black iron chief to deal with her, but rather that she will take the initiative to find the black iron chief.
"Well, if there is any problem, even if you don't want to involve Rhodes Island, you should tell me immediately, you know?"
"......Um."
After a brief reply, Xia Wan turned her attention to Maria and Platinum.
In her plan, not only Rhodes Island, but also Frost Star will not be involved by her. The black iron leader of the Wuxi League is not so easy to deal with, and even Frost Star can't provide much help.
