Love and passion, cutting up the wasteland.

Chapter 113 Substituting one thing for another (combined chapter)
Regardless of whether what Tie Bangtang said is true or false, Ken Li's death has been made public.

Wei Yi's lips trembled slightly.

Although he had already learned the news from Naqin in advance, it was another thing to witness the death of his colleagues.

He couldn't help but touch his neck, as if there was also a tragic scar there.

This feeling seems familiar...

The last time I had this sense of crisis was when I faced that bone-faced man in that thick fog.

The knife that seemed to be able to tear through the night was only a few inches away from hitting him.

That flash of sword light still wakes him up every night.

It can be said that it was precisely because of the Bone-faced Man that Wei Yi clearly realized that even if he climbed to the position of supervisor, he could not rest easy, and now he was even more eager to go to the Holy Kingdom.

In the country guarded by the Paladin, there must be no room for such evil thugs.

thug……

Wei Yi was shocked.

He didn't look at Tiebangtang who was holding Li Ken's head, but looked around at a loss.

It doesn't make any sense.

He thought it was the bone-faced man who... killed Ken Li.

Although judging from his performance that night, his strength is far from being able to sneak into the East District and assassinate a supervisor who is a warrior himself.

But this kind of similar fear was only brought to him by this person in his life.

Just like a person who is afraid of venomous snakes, he will feel uncomfortable when he sees the rope for fetching water.

This is an instinctive association.

Wei Yi stood up, no longer in the mood to sit still in the face of chaos.

He called his guards and approached Wu Xin and the Paladin.

That night, the Bonefaced Man was forced back by Black Heart.

Now, it is the violence in Wu Xin's hands that can make him feel safe.

Unlike others who were shocked, Naqin was worried about another thing at the moment.

——Priest of Valu.

Naqin looked at the special envoy and mediator from the Holy Kingdom, subconsciously hoping to read the priest's attitude towards this matter from his expression.

On the day they were about to reach an agreement, a riot broke out at the hub, and even the director of the Eastern District was killed, and his head was exposed to the public.

For Fangshi, this is a huge shame.

What's more, the family scandal must not be made public. They vowed to eliminate the Lang Ninja Group in the hub station, and even chose to do it on the spot in the West Town Tavern, just to show off their control over the hub station.

Now it's all ruined.

Sure enough, Valu's face was as cold as ice.

"Narko's minions are emerging in endlessly, and even our future inquisitor died under the turbulence of darkness - Brother Naqin, no, Director Naqin, is this the promise you gave us?"

Naqin smiled bitterly: "No one wanted it... but it has happened. Please believe that we can put down the rebellion as soon as possible, and the murderer of Director Li is also here. As long as we..."

At this point, the situation is out of control and can only be remedied with stronger actions.

Although the cause of Ken Li's death is not completely clear, someone has to pay the price. Since these people in the black market have made provocative actions, they must bear the consequences of doing so.

"enough!"

A man's voice suddenly sounded, so powerful that everyone's chests shook.

He opened the door of the tavern and walked in slowly, like an ordinary regular customer.

Because of the wind and sand, the washed linen clothes were inevitably stained with dust, but the man's face was still smooth and not tired at all.

He walked towards the center of the tavern, which was already surrounded by people.

Some members of the gang had never seen this man before. They raised their eyebrows and wanted to stop him with a knife.

"Get back!"

However, Naqin and Wei Yi scolded the gang in unison and bowed their heads in salute.

"President."

The founder of Fang City and the real owner of the hub.

Ordinary people have no idea that such a person exists. In their eyes, the supervisor is already powerful and can kill his own life at will.

however.

Except for Naqin, all the supervisors were single-handedly promoted by this man.

Supervisors are not born noble. Some of them were just gangsters who hung out at the bottom of the street, some were just guys who knew how to count, and some were just slaves bought by the president...

They are where they are today simply because they are in this position.

And this position was given to them by the president.

The more pretentious they are, the more they feel that the charity given by others is what they deserve; and the more humble they are, the more they can remember who gave them this in the first place.

——Because I have owned it, I am even more afraid of it being taken away.

The president ignored his two supervisors.

He looked at the Holy Kingdom group with an incomprehensible expression.

They did not salute. It would be better to say that these people did not know their existence from the beginning.

The Holy Nation has mixed feelings about Hub.This place was once a sacred pasture, but now it is occupied by the minions of darkness. No one dares to guarantee that the Holy Kingdom’s envoys will definitely come with kindness.

It was impossible to confirm until the last moment whether these people would produce a letter of appointment or an indictment.

Maybe they were prepared for these two parchments.

The president is very cautious.

The person in charge of contact was Naqin, who had once had the status of a priest, and the person in charge of reception was Wu Xin, who was disguised as a paladin... He did not intend to reveal his identity in front of everyone until the matter was settled.

Vallu took Lussac and nodded to the president.

Even if they didn't know the identity of the president, they could tell from the respectful attitudes of Na Qin and Wei Yi that this person had a special status.

——Then it’s time to end now.

"Ken Li, burglary, murder in the street, desecration of corpses, presiding over terrorism..." The president spoke slowly, listing the charges one by one.

Wei Yi was stunned. He was very familiar with these terms.

This was a crime arbitrarily assigned to them on the Holy Kingdom's wanted list.

"...Bounty: 23000 coins." The president paused, "Moreover, this person still chose to lead the rebellion in the East District, and finally became the Holy Knight Lysa, even though he had the opportunity to wash away his sins and return to the glory of the Lord. Kill whatever you want..."

He looked at Valu: "Master Priest, how about this being decided?"

President, what are you talking about?
Wei Yi wanted to shout out like this.

The turmoil in the East District was obviously caused by foreign enemies. Ken Li also died at the hands of assassins. Lussac never took action from the beginning to the end...

Then he saw Valu and Lussac look at each other and nod.

"This gentleman spoke sincerely, pointing out the truth behind the fog." Valu smiled.

Wei Yi felt her heart suddenly go cold.

He got it.

The supervisor's power in the hub is overwhelming, so correspondingly, they are notorious in the Holy Kingdom.

In the eyes of the judge, they are actually no different from the Lang Ninja Group. They are all traitors.

Capturing the members of the Lang Ninja Group can be regarded as a "good deed", which is equivalent to political achievements for promotion... the same can be said for capturing the supervisor.

The Holy Kingdom actually has two goals.

If Fangshi is willing to cooperate, then work with them to eliminate the enemy Lang Ninja Group.

If there is a supervisor who is unwilling to cooperate... then eliminate him altogether and add glory to his career in serving God.

Now that the turmoil in the East District cannot be calmed down for a while, instead of waiting to capture Li Ken's assassin and quell the civil strife, it is better to give up on Li Ken and turn him into Narko's pawn.And this achievement was also given to the opponent's paladins, which was enough to shut their mouths.

Anyway, Ken Li is dead. The living supervisors have their jobs, and the dead supervisors should also play their due value.

but……

Ken Li has always been the most loyal to the president.

Wei Yi resisted the urge to avoid the president and approached him: "Where is the South District?"

He knew that a person like the president would not let his subordinates escape control.

"The South District has stabilized, but He Falcon ran away." The president raised his sleeves, revealing a splatter of blood, "It's too late to choose a new director now, the South District will be yours from now on."

"Yes...thank you, President."

Wei Yi stepped back.

He has no choice.

Now there is no possibility of returning to being one's own peacekeeper.Either turn to the Holy Kingdom and be baptized, and all the sins committed before will become a thing of the past. They are just footnotes to the saints, proving that they can still receive God's inspiration even if they have been immersed in the mud of the secular world.

Or, he would leave everything behind and be hunted down alone by the Holy Kingdom and Fangshi, and even his former colleagues would work even harder.

The choice is clear.

Thinking about it this way, He Falcon was really unwise when it came to such a big event. "Ahem." Several coughs came from the corner, "Have you forgotten that I exist?"

Old Tang pointed at himself.

"Since Ken Li has become a traitor, I can barely be considered a righteous man... Is it too late to surrender now?"

The situation is becoming increasingly unfavorable for them. The barrier between the Holy Kingdom and Fang City has been lifted, and the mysterious president has also appeared.

He had never seen the strength of the president, but someone told Old Tang that Wu Xin was the president's student.

"What do you say?"

Wu Xin sneered: "You may not be able to survive even if you beg for mercy, and it's even rarer to see someone who seeks death."

There is no way, compared to the general trend of the entire hub station, these idle black market workers who come out to cause trouble are really not enough.

It was just that the information given by Old Tang was so shocking that they delayed the time to this extent.

If the president hadn't come forward to stabilize the situation, these people might have had a chance to take advantage of the chaos and escape.

"Really?" Looking at the enemy who continued to advance, Old Tang couldn't help but feel guilty.

He suddenly shouted: "Old Lei!"

"If you don't take action, I'm going to die!"

Everyone was startled.

Who is he calling?

Another bluff?

Only Priest Valu seemed to react and roared: "Get down!"

All the Saints immediately pulled the prisoners around them to lie down.However, most of the gang members could not understand this order. They still held weapons and gathered around Old Tang and others, and conflicts broke out with the guards.

Old Tang had frightened the people present too many times, so this time they decided not to force Lai Lai, but went straight to it.

They can understand to some extent that capturing these people must be a great achievement.

However, the president's expression suddenly changed, and he pulled Naqin aside, almost holding the old man in his arms.

then.

The howl has arrived.

The sharp weapon cut through the air, shattered the glass, and plunged into the gang members gathered around Old Tang.

It was a huge and thick crossbow arrow.

——This is more like a short spear than an arrow.

Its entire surface is even wrapped in fine steel.

A strong force pushed the weapon through all the gang members along the way. The sharp arrow penetrated the human body as if there was no obstacle, piercing one person and then penetrating another person at the same time.

【Eagle Crossbow】

After the technology tree was crooked, the world's self-designed crossbow with the longest range was built. Craftsmen piled all the top technologies and materials on it just to make its mechanism capable of shooting crossbow arrows like cannonballs. It is positioned as Sniper rifle.

The range is so far that the person hit by the arrow cannot even see the position of the crossbowman.

Not everyone was fatally wounded, but limbs flew everywhere where the crossbow arrows struck.

Deng!
Finally, the crossbow arrow hit Old Tang's feet, and the flesh and blood on it trembled with the arrow shaft.

"Come on!" Old Tang greeted.

No one could stand in front of him, and a thoroughfare was temporarily formed.

"Don't be afraid, keep going!" The president helped Naqin up and quickly ordered, "The crossbowman cannot fire continuously!"

The disadvantage of the Eagle Crossbow is that it is extremely slow to wind up, and the requirements for the crossbowman are also quite demanding.

It is impossible to shoot a second arrow in a short time.

Moreover, for long-distance sniping, there was only one path to choose from in the Xizhen Tavern, which was from the door and window to the place where Old Tang was standing just now. This was obviously what they had discussed in advance.

Most people were not injured, but were temporarily shocked.

In a sense, Old Tang had fooled them again.

Wu Xin held back the pain in her waist and rushed forward with the knife.

He was facing off right in front of Old Tang just now, and the terrifying arrow was naturally heading straight for him. However, after all, he had a keen sense and turned sideways in advance, so that the crossbow arrow only scraped past his waist.

Coupled with the protection of a knight's protective gear, there was no serious injury.

He roared and charged fearlessly with heavy armor, like a ferocious beast.

The sword slashed straight towards Old Tang's back.

At this moment, the fallen paladin Lussac on the other side also stood up, pulled out his cross epee, blocked the way forward, and rushed towards the two of them.

The sword light flashed.

Old Tang rolled over.

Blood splattered.

Wu Xin stared at Lussac in front of him in surprise. Through his helmet, he could see clearly that the man inside had a frightened expression.

However, this man's eyes were indeed staring at him.

His heavy cross sword struck Wu Xin's body.

The Holy Kingdom betrayed?
"Ahhhh!" Wu Xin roared angrily, kicked "Lussac" away, and the cross epee flew away.

so weak...

Even in his rage, he couldn't help but be stunned.

Although he has long realized that the strength of this paladin is not as good as his own, there is no reason to be so weak. Isn't it possible that the Holy Kingdom is like this?

If he hadn't been defenseless, he would never have been stabbed by this man.

Wu Xin's left arm spurted out a stream of blood, the flesh and blood rolled around, and the tendons and arteries had been injured.

The president on the other side noticed something unusual the moment the paladin drew his sword.

That's not an attempt to cut off Tiepangtang.

He drew out a gang member's waist knife on the spot and rushed forward.

But he was blocked by a servant of the Holy Kingdom.

This servant looked old, but his strength was astonishing. He drew his sword and took the president's move, but took several steps back.

"Who are you?" The president frowned.

Gu Fang sighed: "I have to repay the favor I owe."

When they took out the transcribed map and handed it to Lu Beiyou, they didn't expect that he would really revise it carefully one by one.Not only did they mark the subsequent road to the Valley of the Vanities, but they also corrected the first half of the journey they had already taken.

Because Yuke, Shalik and others had personally walked that stretch of road, they were naturally certain that Lu Beiyou's revision was extremely accurate.

Only then did Gu Fang realize that Lu Beiyou was not looking for an excuse to ask for the map, but really wanted to guide them in the direction.

The value of this map alone is immeasurable.

'How many things like this do this man named Lu Beiyou have in his mind? '

It is worth making friends.

Anyway, this group of people is going to run away soon. Those from Fangshi Holy Kingdom should stay behind and eat their shit.

The president snorted coldly.

The old man who suddenly disrupted the situation was no match for him.

A gust of punch came, and the president dodged sideways.

But Old Tang suddenly turned back.

He was stunned.

Wu Xin was a student taught by him, and his injuries were not serious. He should at least be able to stop Tie Bang Tang.

An ominous foreboding.

The president looked in that direction.

I saw "Lussac" still lying on the ground, struggling to get up.

Wu Xin was still standing there, his tall body and armor made him look like a real paladin.

however.

A long sword penetrated his chest and abdomen through the gap.

Blood, blood and organ fragments covered the broad sword body. On the snow-white sacred breastplate, large blood stains were so bright that it was dazzling.

Wu Xin's eyes widened and her eyebrows trembled, looking at the man holding the sword in disbelief.

——Priest "Valu".

His figure is no longer stooped.

His white hair is scattered and his eyes are as bright as a torch.
