Love and passion, cutting up the wasteland

He has already figured out my identity!

Hearing such a sentence, Hamut could only draw this conclusion.

But the other party also said, "We met again," but he had no impression at all: When had he ever dealt with a captain of the Stone Rat Group?

Even if there was, it was just now when I was scolded while pretending to be a slave worker.

Now he couldn't understand even more why the other party suddenly attacked the people in the Stone Rat Group.

Moreover, the number two figure among them was eliminated with just one blow.

Poor Gary, he has been in business for many years, and this operation was even more ambitious, but in the end he died in an unclear manner.

However, before everyone could react—

The moment the torch was extinguished and the words were spoken, the man had already raised his knife and rushed forward towards Hamut!

Hamut, whose identity was exposed, couldn't care less. He grabbed the steel knife in his arms and rolled it out.

The fire disappeared so suddenly that Hamut had no time to catch the opponent's figure, but his wrist shook extremely fast in an instant, and the sharp blade tore through his clothes and drew a series of 'Z'-shaped trajectories in the air, blocking any possible attack from the enemy. direction.

However, Hamut found this to be in vain.

The long knife that killed Gary, like an unstoppable dragon, penetrated the knife marks he had made. Sparks flew out in an instant. Hamut's sharp knife was unable to shake the opponent's straight thrust.

The man used his keen awareness to accurately grasp his weak points, and at the same time, the speed and force of the sword was even stronger!

It's over.

Hamut secretly cried out, feeling desperate.

He had just taught Ase a lesson as an elder not long ago, saying that there were dragons and crouching tigers hidden in the swamp and that he should not be taken lightly.

Unexpectedly, just as he met a genius worker bee shooter on the front foot, he bumped into a stone rat group sword master on the back foot, and he was just a squad leader escorting slave workers.

This is intentional to deceive people, right?

The light of the knife flashed out, and drops of blood splashed on the side of Hamut's face.

The expected pain did not come. Instead, a scream came from behind him, and then it stopped suddenly as if his throat had been broken.

Hamut turned around, only to find the body of a Stone Rat Guard guard lying at his feet.

After the long knife broke through his defense, it missed Hamut by an inch and stabbed behind Hamut, striking a stone rat guard in the chest who reacted.

"I am not your enemy," the man turned his back to him and could only say a few short sentences in a hurry:

"Relay station, shipwreck...we are traveling together!"

A flash of light flashed through Hamut's mind: "... Lu Meng?"

That was when he was still in the Shark Kingdom... An underground missionary from the Holy Kingdom wanted to hire him to assassinate a wanted criminal on a bounty order, but he sternly refused.

The wanted criminal, according to the missionary, is called ‘Lu Meng’.

Hamut did not know Lu Meng beforehand and had no special opinion of him.

However, he was hired to kill people in the market town. On the one hand, he was honing his skills. On the other hand, he just wanted to use the missionary's intelligence network to search for the whereabouts of merchants and nobles in the Union City.

It was precisely because of this commission from the missionary that he realized:

His reputation in the underground world is starting to get out of control, and the danger in the future will increase day by day.

Hamut doesn't want to simply become someone else's knife.

At the same time, he learned some clues about the 'freedom fighters', and then took this as an opportunity to make up his mind and set out through the swamp, hoping to contact these enemies who were resisting the United City.

Later, Krall's Choice attacked the relay station and the nearby drifter market town. Hamut lurked back and took advantage of the chaos to kill his former missionary employer. However, while retreating, he met a white-haired young man.

In such a coincidental place and at the same time, they were hunting down the missionaries again.

Coupled with his delineation of characteristics, he is probably the wanted criminal in the Holy Kingdom.

Fortunately, they had no conflict of interest and passed each other by.

But Hamut didn't expect that it was dark at the time and the sight inside the shipwreck was dim. He couldn't see the other person's appearance clearly, let alone remember... So when they met again, he didn't notice it at all.

It turned out that it was also a one-time relationship, and the other party actually remembered him.

Thinking about it now, when the other party saw him among the slave workers, the reason why he reacted strangely and specifically picked him out was that at least from that time on, the other party had recognized him.

And he has been kept in the dark all this time.

What surprised Hamut even more was that Lu Meng's current strength far exceeded his imagination.

You must know that when they first met, although Hamut felt that the other party was dangerous, he was still vigilant within a controllable range. There was not much difference in strength between the two parties, and Hamut was even certain to kill Lu Meng.

After all, this is what he is good at, which can be seen from the missionary's desire to hire him.

As a result, during this unexpected reunion, if Lu Meng hadn't been hostile, Hamut would have died under that knife just now.

In a face-to-face encounter, the outcome was decided; the other party's murderous intent was not even directed at him, but it was still oppressive.

Obviously Hamut's strength has also increased, but there is still no chance to resist.

After he went to the swamp, what did the other party go through in this short period of time, and how did he do it?

With no time to think about this, Hamut only heard Lu Meng say: "No matter what your purpose is, at least we are not enemies here...kill them first!"

The straight knife stabbed Hamut again, but this time he made a tacit understanding and swung the knife behind Lu Meng.

Almost at the same moment, two pieces of blood spattered.

Lu Meng's straight knife swung and killed the attacking stone rat guard owl; while Hamut cut the other man's chest with precision.

Hamut also didn’t understand Lu Meng’s purpose.

But now, it can be inferred that the other party is the Stone Rat Regiment's camp that was disguised and infiltrated like him.

What's more, he killed the second-in-command with one knife, which made his position even more clear.

We have a common enemy and have met each other once before. This can be regarded as the basis of trust in critical situations.

The primary purpose at this moment was to silence the surrounding Stone Rats who were originally guarding Gary in a remote corner of the camp, so as not to expose the whereabouts of his group.

Yet there are too many!

Hamut is dedicated to honing his assassination skills, but his sword skills are not good at group battles. Even if Lu Meng is added, there will always be fish that slip through the enemy's trap.

When the alarm sounds, the two of them will face the entire camp encircling and suppressing them.

No matter how strong you are, it will kill you if you consume it.

"What should I do?" Hamut couldn't help but ask as the two people's bodies crossed each other again.

"What should I do?" Lu Meng asked.

Hamut was stunned.

He originally thought that the other party who dared to assassinate the second-in-command of the Stone Rat Group should be more prepared than himself.

Looking at this posture, could it be that he was doing it on the spur of the moment?

This dream... is a reckless man...

However, the next moment, he saw the white-haired young man sheathing his sword.

Hamut suddenly realized that at the moment the fire was extinguished, there was the sound of other people's weapons clashing in the darkness.

At this moment, there was no unnecessary movement around.
