Love and passion, cutting up the wasteland.

Chapter 648: Knowing People (Combined Chapter)
Bo's attack disappeared without a trace, while the other helper's punches and kicks were extremely powerful, and the two sides even coordinated with each other. Even if it was a warrior like Su Cheng who had experienced the baptism of battlefield, he would either die on the spot or suffer serious injuries if he was attacked by this combination.

But he swung the knife in the direction indicated, a spark flashed, and the faint light illuminated the short blade in Bo's hand, and the next moment it was hit and flew out.

The knife's force suddenly continued at the cutoff point, and the new black-clothed man's white hair on his forehead was blown. He quickly withdrew his hand and jumped back to avoid the sweeping range of the thick blade.

A piece of rag fell from the air.

But it was the corner of the clothes that had just been cut off.

It was just a simple angle of attack, but Su Cheng unexpectedly turned the situation around and survived! Even he himself did not expect that such a knife was actually swung by himself.

Easy and freehand.

Before the warrior could feel happy and surprised, the next command came into his ears again: "Pingzhong, three steps... retreat!"

Su Cheng's figure retreated violently.

The breastplate in front of her body collided with the short blade, creating a streak of sparks that illuminated her petite figure.

The next moment she was forced to lean forward.

Because the warrior sweep is coming again!
Then, the man in black who was good at boxing and kicking attacked again...

Just like that, Su Cheng followed the commands and instructions in his ears, whether it was the angle of the swing, the degree of force, or the steps under his body... For a moment, he was fighting one against two, and he was not at a disadvantage at all.

Moreover, with each fight, the samurai felt more and more refreshed, as if his already outstanding swordsmanship had been further improved and perfected on the original basis.

"what!"

He shouted angrily.

When the knife was swung, the enemy hit the middle part of the knife back with all his strength with both fists, which was the gap that Su Cheng had deliberately covered up.

But this time, as he exerted force, the broad cleaver not only did not deviate from its course after being hit, but instead directly shook away the enemy's palms.

No more flaws!

"Swoosh." At the critical moment, Bo grabbed his companion's collar and pulled him backwards, thus avoiding the fierce knife force.

Lest you leave your hands here.

There seemed to be a hint of doubt in the pupils of this anti-slavery fighter, whose face was masked with only his eyes exposed.

Su Cheng was breathing heavily.

Half tired and half excited.

The voice of instructions was getting closer and clearer... and he had already recognized it as the swordsman from the daytime!
Only then did Su Cheng discover and confirm it.

The fact that the opponent was able to stop him with one sword was not a coincidence nor was it his full strength.

Although those who are involved in the battle are often the most confused, those who watch from outside the battlefield can sometimes see many flaws that even the opponents themselves cannot detect.

But to be able to enable someone to fight a foe twice as strong as himself with just a few words of guidance... doesn't that mean that his insights and swordsmanship skills alone are enough to be another self?
This is no longer something a master can describe.

Shi Cha finally crawled out from under the heavy curtain and witnessed this scene: from a distance, a swordsman wearing a conical hat and a long robe walked towards him step by step, and behind him, a slender and agile dog was jumping happily and following closely.

Naturally, Su Cheng was not the only one who could hear the other party's voice.

However, for Shi Cha, this was not a completely surprising thing like it was for Su Cheng… His pupils trembled slightly as he realized the outcome of the pursuit of Mu Shang.

Everyone is safe and sound.

What about the warriors who followed orders?

"Oh my god..." Tang Darui, the owner of the Skeleton Inn and a drifter, was so scared that his legs almost went limp. He couldn't believe what he saw. "What happened?"

Under the skeleton of the giant beast.

The warriors, fully armored, had their hands tied behind their backs, were pinned to the ground, and forced to kneel in a row.

In the eyes of the Drifters, these symbols of the most violent armed forces in the United City can only bow down at this moment.

That was since Tang Darui started running the post station.

Things that are unthinkable.

Behind the warrior.

They were a group of people dressed in ordinary herdsmen's attire.

However, hidden beneath their fur coats was a set of black clerical robes, which tightly wrapped up their solid and muscular bodies and iron-gray steel prosthetic limbs.

A female doctor in a white robe hummed a little tune and helped take care of the soldiers after the fierce battle. She was the military doctor accompanying the team.

But most of the work she does is not like saving lives and healing the wounded like ordinary doctors.

Instead, they are repairing broken machinery.

This intern from the Order of Embers has finally graduated, but Dr. Zhong feels that he is still no match for her. It happens that the transformed warriors of the Order will go into battle with the Grand Commander, and Lu Meng can even treat common injuries by herself, but once their mechanical prosthetic limbs are worn out, they will need maintenance.

Therefore, he simply handed this new apprentice, who was quite talented, proficient in the intersection of flesh and blood and mechanics, but had just a few quirks, to Lu Meng to lead - with Chu Huo in front, she would be more likely to listen to him.

The old warrior thought that he was going to rob an ordinary, defenseless group of animal herders.

But who would have thought.

Different from ordinary traveling merchants.

There is no idle person in this team.

However, a quick glance showed that the tech hunter Chad was not among them.

"Your Excellency...watched the game without saying a word."

The man in black who was supported by Bo stood firm, looked at the approaching swordsman, raised one arm and made a starting stance, but his whole body remained motionless, looking like a master.

Seeing this, Su Cheng's excitement was like a bucket of cold water poured on him, cooling him down a bit.

Having clearly witnessed the swordsman's miraculous teaching skills, he was still able to remain calm... Could it be that he has some hidden card that he hasn't revealed yet?
Think about it carefully.

With the help of the swordsman, Su Cheng was able to fight two people at once, but he was indeed unable to truly hurt the other two.

Sometimes, he even thought he had made a brilliant move with the sword, but every time he was about to strike, the enemy managed to dodge it.

Very thrilling.

The warrior dragged his sword and took a few steps back in the direction of the swordsman, taking a defensive stance.

Also guard the master's house.

Su Cheng was not an ignorant person. After many fights, he had guessed the other party's identity.

Anti-slavery.

Those thugs who tried to overthrow the empire, incite the people, and do not produce anything.

In the past, the warriors could only learn about the other party's actions from official newspapers, but they did have an understanding of their strength.

The gods and ghosts can move around and should not be underestimated.

If the swordsman is only superior in insight, but not much stronger in his own strength, they may not be able to suppress the opponent by joining forces - this situation is not impossible, as some people are born to be more suitable for teaching rather than practicing.

A good teacher can produce many good students, but there are always students who are better than their teachers.

"It's too late to talk about this now." Lu Meng walked forward, side by side with Su Cheng. He looked at the warrior and smiled. "I've already been in the game."

From what everyone heard, it was obvious that the two anti-slavery activists wanted to persuade this swordsman of unknown origin to leave and not get involved in this matter.

But his words also made his position clear, that he wanted to stand with the victims.

At that moment, Su Cheng was touched. Although he was on the battlefield, he still clasped his fist towards him, both to thank him for his help and to express his admiration for his choice.

Only Shi Cha suddenly trembled all over.

Something came to mind.

The two "anti-slavery activists" looked at each other, and before they could react, Bo flipped his wrist and two points of silver light burst out.

He rushed straight towards Su Cheng and Lu Meng.

"careful!"

Su Cheng immediately gave a warning and at the same time held his sword across his chest to block the silver light.

He had seen it in the previous fight. It was the short blade thrown by the anti-slavery woman.

Although the blade is thin, it flutters in the air like a butterfly, with its movements mysterious and unpredictable.

It’s hard to guard against.

The flying blades came at an extremely fast speed. Su Cheng wanted to help Lu Meng take them together, but he only had time to block his own blade and watched the rest shoot towards the opponent's forehead.

The warrior was not very worried. Even in the most extreme situation, if the opponent's strength was comparable to his own, he would be able to dodge it... But the next moment, something happened that surprised Su Cheng. The swordsman did not draw his sword, but grabbed the silver light with his bare hands.

Snapped!
Hold tight.

"You..." Su Cheng just opened his mouth when he saw Lu Meng's palm slowly open - he saw that what was inside was not a sharp dagger, but just an ordinary round coin.

Denomination: 1.

On the other side, something that hit Su Chengdao's blade also fell down with a clang. It was also a Kai coin.

Nothing different.

Realizing that she had been tricked, Su Cheng pulled out her knife and tried to chase after him, but just as Bo threw two Kai coins through the air, she and her companions saw a figure...

At this moment, where is there anyone?

It was as if it disappeared out of thin air.

"Don't bother." Lu Meng stepped forward with a knife and held down the shoulder of Su Cheng who was still trying to search. "If the anti-slavery people want to leave, no one can stop them in this environment."

Dark night, chaos, and ruins of bones...

It is their natural stage.

Lu Meng’s definition was not wrong. At that time, two anti-slavery activists were injured and hiding in Shark Village. Several major gangs worked together to search for them but to no avail.

If he hadn't relied on his understanding of the background and his interpersonal relationships to find out that the two people were hiding among the dancing skeletons, it would have been difficult to find them by reconnaissance alone.

"Shh--" He whistled, and Xiaogu rushed out in the dark night upon hearing the order.

Su Cheng knew that this was a mountain dog, which was best at hunting and searching, and he would not be able to help much even if he went up to it; and if even the mountain dog could not find the anti-slavery people, then they would have no choice but to accept defeat.

Seeing this, he didn't say anything more.

What's more, we have to worry about the other party setting an ambush.

The two anti-slavery activists did not lose their fighting power and did not flee in panic.

"I'm sorry, the host was frightened," Su Cheng helped Shi Cha up, "and old man Shi En..."

The warrior actually didn't understand the situation.

He just saw the chaos and came to help.

Now that he knew that his client's old retainer had died at the hands of an assassin, he still felt that the client was loyal to his master and died as a result - I guess the client must be feeling very sad at this moment.

Su Cheng took the initiative to take responsibility.

Although, after being assassinated by the anti-slavers, the head of the largest family was able to escape unscathed, especially when all his guards were almost killed... Such things are rare in the entire confrontation between the United City and the anti-slavers. If he is not worried about retaliation, he would probably become famous if he tells others about it.

However, Su Cheng still had a trace of doubt and relief in his heart: the whole thing made sense logically, but the timing was a little too coincidental.

At this moment, Shi Cha suddenly pushed away Su Cheng's support, staggered for a moment, and then stood firm.

He first forced himself to encourage the warrior with his eyes, and then looked around.

"This..." Su Cheng had been immersed in the battle before, but when he followed his master's line of sight, he discovered his fellow warriors who were captured and waiting to be punished, and he was shocked.

But Shi Cha had already anticipated it.

He narrowed his gaze and finally focused it on one person, who was the swordsman who had just come to support.

——Lu Meng.

The noble young man strode forward, getting closer and closer to him, but suddenly his speed slowed down until he stopped completely.

Seven steps away.

Lu Meng looked at him quietly.

Su Chengze's pupils suddenly dilated, as if he recalled some forgotten memories.

as predicted.

Just as he remembered the etiquette, Shi Cha suddenly bowed down, clasped his hands over his shoulders and raised them above his head - this strange posture, in the aristocratic families of the United City, was the courtesy that the lower nobles performed to their superiors.

"Master..." The power of the sword-wearing nobles in the Northern United City has almost disappeared, and the new nobles in robes are more casual and more mercenary. Su Cheng has not seen such etiquette for a long time, and Shi Cha has the image of a businessman in the north and does not show off his title.

But Shi Cha was born into a noble family after all. Although his family had long been impoverished, the more the family declined, the more the family teachers cared about such red tape, just to maintain the last bit of dignity for the sake of face. Therefore, Shi Cha was very meticulous in what he did now.

But after he finished his ceremony, he did not stand up and remained in this state.

This was such a huge drain on Shi Cha's physical strength that his body was trembling slightly, but he still didn't dare to speak.

"Boss Shi, what does this mean?" Lu Meng spoke at this time.

Su Cheng noticed that facing the noble's salute, the swordsman looked calm, and his tone was not flattering or arrogant, but also seemed to be as if it was a matter of course or that he didn't care... This was not something that could be pretended, but he believed it from the bottom of his heart and was not afraid at all.

he realized.

No matter what the other party's identity is, it is definitely not as simple as you think at the beginning.

His master Shi Cha obviously noticed this earlier than him.

"I was blind to your true identity." The nobleman's body was still trembling slightly. "But forgive me for being frank, I don't know your identity, and I have no intention of disturbing your 'itinerary'..."

At this moment, a light laugh interrupted him:
"Cone said you have the ability to judge people, and now it seems to be true."

Shi Cha was stunned. A plastic card suddenly floated down to the ground, right in his sight as he leaned forward and dared not look up.

There was a line of text printed on it:
Merchant Guild, second level franchise.
