Solon got up before dawn. He didn't sleep at all last night. It was the first time he had insomnia in 15 years. Looking out of the window, the holographic plate of the underground city is evolving. In the hazy light, it seems that even the city is covered with fog.
Standing in front of the window, holding a glass of pure water to drink slowly. Solon suddenly recalled the past. After the rebellion 15 years ago, he ascended to the top of the city. Even the spiritual leader, Pope Paul, was just a pawn in his hands. Over the years, he has been decisive and decisive, and everything is under his control.
Even if Gaia appears, he is sure to lead the situation to his own advantage. After all, he and Gaia have no obvious conflict in the overall situation. But now, he has a feeling that he can't control the situation. This is the first time that he has a sense of powerlessness. The reason is that the killer scar and his people came home at the end of last night.
Scar this man, no one knows his name, just because there is a scar on his face. He had a group of killers under his command. A few years ago, he was wanted for the assassination of a big man in Rome. Soon after, he was arrested and executed. But in fact, the death is just a stand in, Solon left him a life, so as to do something inconvenient for himself.
For example, about Paul's assassination last night, wessel has given it to him. Over the years, scar's group has rarely failed. According to common sense, they should have come back in the middle of the night, and Solon told him that no matter how late it was, they would report to him as soon as possible.
He waited until four o'clock in the morning, but he still didn't see scar coming back, so Solon couldn't close his eyes.
He knew the guard power of the papal palace, because all the guards in the papal palace, except the knight guard, were selected by Sauron from the reserve of the Knight Order and allocated to Paul. There are no more than 20 guards in the whole mansion. Even if you add the knight guard, there are only about 30. Besides, the highest rank of guards and knights is only level 6, but a scar alone is level 8!
There's no technical difficulty in killing Paul. What's more difficult is the aftermath. Originally, Solon had worked out several plans, but now it seems that they are no longer available.
At this time, wither said in a deep voice outside the door, "my Lord, scar is back."
His voice was the same as before, but Solon heard a shivering ending in his voice, and Solon's heart beat heavily.
It's time for the answer to come out.
"Let him in." Solon sank.
Even though Sauron was psychologically prepared, he was still startled when scar came in. Scar is covered with blood, and a left arm is missing. The broken arm was simply bandaged, and now there is still blood oozing out. He was pale and bitter, and saw what Sauron wanted to say, but finally he bowed his head.
"How could that be?" Solon was surprised.
Scar looked up and said, "I'm sorry, my Lord. We failed. All the brothers except me died in the government. "
For scar, it's a big dirt in his career, but he doesn't feel ashamed. Last night, after assassinating a guard, they sneaked into the mansion, only to bump into a guard on the corridor leading to the Pope's bedroom. It was a young man with a lazy smile on his face. It's nothing to scar. It's killing the guard.
At his command, five killers swarmed on. At this time, the man flies back, and at the same time, his fingers flick, and the strong wind blows out, exploding the surrounding lighting. Scar sneers. It's their killer world in the dark. The guard is so naive that he wants to deal with them in the dark. But he soon found that he was wrong. There were cold flashes in the dark from time to time. After each flash, a killer would scream and fall to the ground.
When the last scream disappeared, scar was scared. He didn't know who the man was and why he could easily kill the five killers in the dark. But scar didn't have time to think about it. As soon as he gritted his teeth, he bent down and rushed into the dark.
No one knows what's going on in the dark, only the occasional sparks and the sound of a shower of blows. A moment later, the darkness returned to calm, scar suddenly retreated, covering the shoulder that had lost an arm and flying away from the government. All he could do was to vent his anger on the guards who heard the news.
But it didn't end. The unknown guard chased him out again. Scar could only play hide and seek with him in Rome. With the advantage that he was more familiar with the city than the other party, he finally got rid of this terrible opponent at 5 a.m., and then he had the opportunity to return to Solon to report.
After hearing all this, Solon's face turned blue. He rarely did not get angry, but people who know him well know that the most terrible thing is Solon. Solon clenched his fist, and the air in the room began to vibrate from time to time, which was the cause of Solon's interference. After a while, Solon opened his fist and asked: "where did this boy recruit such a strong man? Are you sure it's not yafidi?""Of course not. The opponent's swordsmanship is very powerful, and his ability is not yafeidi's spiral puncture. Besides, even if it's yafidi, I'm not so miserable. That man, I'm sure he's a Niner! " Said scar.
"Nine steps? Nine steps are hard to find. If you want a nine step to work for you, Paul, what kind of reward do you promise him Solon said, squinting.
Weisser came forward and said, "my Lord, can it be mendelisa or old Joseph, the strong man in their family?"
"It's impossible. Although the two families have a deep foundation, they haven't come up with a nine step guard for Paul." Solon's whole body suddenly shakes and his eyes flash. A moment later, he even gasped a little.
Wessel came forward, but he stopped him. Solon said in a deep voice: "I see. It's like this... Paul, I think he's suspected of cooperating with those guys of Poseidon group!"
"What?"
Wither and scar look at each other, and both of them see their shocked faces in each other's eyes.
"This... How can this be, how to say..." Weiser said intermittently.
Solon sneered: "what's impossible? No, because Paul is the Pope, no one would have thought that he would cooperate with pirates. You think that the sea god group's foundation is shallow, but they can win in a row. The big reason is that they don't know where to find a high-level ability group. Only they can lend a high-ranking official to protect our Pope. "
"So natov island is also a masterpiece of these islands?" "In this way, don't they have some kind of technology or ability that can destroy the island in a single blow?" he said
"It should be, but I'm afraid they will be afraid of this kind of force, or there may be some restrictions. Otherwise, our city would have been destroyed as soon as possible, and we would have tried every means to fight from the bloody road. " "There is enough intelligence to prove that Oran of ISTA has been in and out of Kanon fort for many times, and the Poseidon regiment and rebel forces are suspected of cooperation," Solon said, touching his chin. If you think about it in this way, I'm afraid his Highness has an obscure relationship with the rebel forces... "
"I really belittle this boy. I didn't expect that he was playing a big game of chess." Solon high five.
"My Lord, your highness Paul, do you want to...".
"There are nine steps to protect him. Unless I do it myself, who can kill him?" Solon said coldly: "besides, with last night's incident, he will certainly be on guard. What's more, it can be either one or two. If you can't kill him cleanly, you can't attack him again, otherwise it will lead to interference. "
"But scar, I have another thing for you to do."
Scar outside idea way: "excuse me is what matter."
"Yafidi." Sauron said coldly, "kill him for me."
Both Weiser and scar looked at Solon in bewilderment. The latter said: "at the meeting yesterday, siene, who had always been friendly with yafidi, insisted on Abolishing his position as commander of the team and depriving him of his meritorious service. In this way, yafidi is no different from the common people. At the beginning, I was a little confused. Later, I thought that Sinai was going to send him away as a good friend. Without his position and meritorious service, there is nothing to be investigated when a civilian leaves the city. But he is considerate and does not give me any control. "
He said with a smile: "it's a pity that if it's someone else, it's just that. Duyafidi, I can't just let him go. Whether it's a high-ranking person or a former head of my order. From any point of view, yafidi's value is too great. I don't want to set up such an enemy for myself in the future. Besides, he knows that we have too many things to do. If we become enemies, we will have endless troubles. So, scar, you go and kill him. "
"Of course, when he's out of town. I'll make him regret it once, since he wants to be clever. Of course, a civilian can leave the city freely, but at the same time, if one or two civilians die outside the city, no one will investigate them. "
"What about his wife and children?" Scar asked in a deep voice.
Sauron made a gesture of decapitation: "cut the grass and root, understand?"
"I know."
Scar salutes and turns away.
A modified car with a raised chassis and a guardrail was stopped by the guard when it arrived at the gate of the city. The soldier on duty came forward and said, "who are you? Please show your pass when you leave the city."
The driver poked his head out of the window and said, "is your dog blind? Can't you see that this is the emblem of the family of liutemur? Chief senei is in a hurry to leave the city. If you want to delay your business, can you afford it? "
At this time, the soldiers noticed that the signboards of the family were printed on the doors on both sides of the car, and quickly let them go. As the car passed by, he saw that in the lengthened trunk of the car, there was indeed signe sitting. He was closing his eyes. In the trunk were several civilians, a young couple and three children. Among them, the male soldier felt familiar, and seemed to be yafidi, the commander of the 11th army.As the car went away, the soldier shook his head and laughed. How noble is the identity of the commander of the army, and how can he wear such civilian clothes as cloth clothes and trousers? He is probably a member of the family of the commander of Sinai, but it's a great honor to have the commander personally send him out of the city.
The soldier didn't know. He was right. The one sitting next to signe was jaffetti.
The car left the city gate, passed through a tunnel and came to the ground. It went on for hundreds of kilometers. There is a small hill beside a bend. There is an off-road vehicle at the foot of the hill. The car pulled up to the side, and the driver, signe and jaffetti got out of the car together.
"Here you are, my friend."
Sinai patted yafeidi on the shoulder and said, "take my car and leave. I have my family badge as a cover. No one dares to cross examine you unless I die."
"If I can, I'd like to meet you for a drink next time." Yafidi said sincerely, holding his arm in his backhand.
"There will be a chance." Sene went to the back of the car and opened the trunk, which was full of goods: "there's enough water and food for you to survive this winter. After that, find a small place to settle down and wait for a few years to see the situation. "
He added: "Mina is a good woman. Don't let her get hurt."
Yafeidi gently smiles at his wife in the carriage, turns his head and says: "don't worry, I'm not the team leader, but I still have strength. To protect Mina and the children, I asked myself, "I still have this ability."
"That's the best. Then, let's go." He added, "don't look back!"
It's a pun. Yafidi can't hear it. He takes a look in the direction of Rome, then turns around and goes into the driver's seat.
The engine starts and the car goes away. Until he disappeared at the end of the road, he sighed, "let's go back, too."
So I got on the off-road vehicle with the driver and drove back to Rome.
Half an hour later, several motorcycles and an off-road vehicle came and stopped by the hill where siene and yafidi separated. Scar jumped off the SUV, looked at the wheel marks on the ground attentively, then turned back and said, "they've just left. They're chasing me!"
Ten killers, including scar, galloped to the end of the earth like a pack of wolves along the trail left by yafidi.
With a sneeze, old Bernard got out of bed. Open the curtain, the outside is floating goose feather big snowflakes. It's just that the snow in the new era is not beautiful at all. They are gray and have strong radiation. Old Bernard sighed and stood in front of the mirror. The old man in the mirror is covered with a thin, dark red muscle tissue under the pouch of his left face, which is the abnormal tissue formed by long-term living on the ground and affected by radiation. Allogeneic tissue can make human tenaciously resist the erosion of radiation, but it can also accelerate the aging of human body, just like a double-edged sword.
You can't live without it, but you die fast with it. But no matter what, the mutation organization can at least let ordinary human survive in this harsh environment, and those fragile lives were eliminated as early as 20 or 30 years ago after the cataclysm.
Old Bernard is the second mayor of jozzi town. This town, as well as the surrounding towns of Masson and lambridge, were established in the past ten years. It is also after the blood stained road that these small towns have a living space. The opening of the blood stained road made the western continent form an important traffic road from south to north. With roads, goods and materials can go anywhere in the western continent. Therefore, the significance of blood stained roads is like the blood vessels of the human body, and its importance is self-evident.
With the blood stained Road, there are now towns like jozzi or cities like cage, which form transport nodes on the blood stained road and can be used as transit stations. The geographical location of the three towns of yoqi town is unique. Not far behind them is the famous city of rock in the mainland. As a rock city guarding the north of the bloody road, its firmness can be seen from its name.
As a matter of fact, the outer wall of the city of rock is built by the rich natural white stone nearby. The city wall is 60 meters high and snow-white, so it is also called "white city". The city gate is made of composite armor plate of equal height. In addition, the designers of rock city added some additional systems to the gate to resist impact, making it almost impossible to open the city gate with external force.
This gate is called the wall of sigh. When the enemy arrived at the foot of the city, they also wanted to look at the city and sigh.
As a vassal town of Rock City, the three towns of Youqi have their own advantages. Three small towns are full of hotels and bars, which give travelers a place to rest and relax after their time in the city. At the same time, there is a brewery in yoqi Town, so it is also called beer town. When travelers from south to North pass by yoqi Town, they always go to the town bar to drink a few small town brewed beer.
But now, both jozzy and the other two towns are very depressed. In addition to the cold winter, there is another important reason, that is, piracy in the south of the mainland.Old Bernard had heard that the Pirates of roar bay had not only landed, but also occupied Fort canon. It's an incredible thing for the people in the town. After all, the fortress of Canon is said not to fall off the iron wall. There are two knights stationed in it, and its defense is only inferior to that of the city of rock in the whole continent.
Soon after, the Knights and pirates in eternal mountain battle, the result is amazing.
Now, even cage city has fallen into the hands of pirates, which is a great threat to the north.
However, judging from the reaction of the residents in the town, we didn't feel much about it. After all, some travelers from the South heard that even after they were occupied, the pirates did not do much damage to the city, and even protected the food and water for the city residents. Their policies were much more relaxed than those ordered by the old men in the papal hall.
The most attractive thing is the treatment of the workers there. I heard that an ordinary miner can get two gold coins a month! You know, for families in Beidi, two gold coins are enough for a family's monthly food and clothing needs, while workers in Beidi often earn only enough money for the family to barely live, far from food and clothing.
Of course, these topics can only be discussed in private. If the soldiers hear it, they will take it away.
