Chapter 324 Unintentional Crash

Meeting Phillip at this time was something Tang En and Joshua did not expect. However, after getting so much information, the next shopping trip naturally had to be cancelled.

The two quickly returned to the creekside tavern and found Enoch and the others who were still studying negotiation strategies based on conditions. They discussed the impact that the other party's complex negotiation team would have on this side, and whether there would be any opportunities.

At the same time, some undercurrents generated in the city also began to officially roll under the inadvertent push...

…………

Nancheng District, remote streets.

This is now considered a taboo place for the citizens of Shanxi City, because there was a fierce battle not long ago, where hundreds of guard cavalry faced off against a dozen bounty hunters. There was no winner in that battle, the bounty hunters were wiped out, and the guard cavalry also suffered heavy casualties.

Later, at some point, a rumor gradually spread in the city. It is said that it may be because too many people died at that time, so at night you can hear sounds similar to the clash of weapons and the cries of the dead... Regardless of whether this rumor is just said by an old man with some ear problems, anyway, Now this place has been shrouded in a frightening aura, and even homeless people will consciously avoid it.

Of course, there are always some people who don’t believe in evil, or in other words, some people don’t care about this at all…

"Bernie, is that mole talking about No. 38 or No. 83?" Powis rubbed his red nose, frowned and tried to distinguish the house numbers on the abandoned houses on both sides, and asked impatiently. road.

"Don't ask me, I don't know." Bernie on the side was obviously unhappy and curled his lips: "If you hadn't struck too hard and killed the mole with one punch, why would you need to worry about this issue now?"

Powers scratched his head and spread his hands helplessly: "I didn't know that mole was so inexperienced that he couldn't even take a punch... I really don't understand, what kind of mole can such a person be? It's so embarrassing. That’s it.”

The cause of the matter is very simple. After Powers and Bernie became the director of security and the chief of cavalry in Shanxi City, they naturally started their old profession and came to trouble the mole. But I don’t know if it’s because the last incident was so big that they are now famous, and the moles in the city also disappeared collectively.

Yesterday, we finally caught one, and he was waiting in the execution room to ask for clues about the other moles, but he was accidentally beaten to death by the excited Powers, leaving behind the embarrassing question of No. 38 and No. 83.

The distance between these two house numbers seems to be only about fifty houses, maybe a few hundred meters at most. But the assassins are so sharp. If they make a wrong choice, the other party will definitely run away after seeing the guard cavalry a few hundred meters away.

"Your mother!" "Damn..."

After approaching the street, Powers and Bernie were surprised to find that the street turned in the middle, and No. 38 and No. 83 happened to be separated on both sides, which undoubtedly increased the difficulty of searching one after another.

"Let's divide the troops." Bernie slapped his forehead and suggested helplessly, "You and I will each lead a team of people, let's see who has better luck."

Powers nodded and drew his sword: "I choose No. 83. Hehe, I have a hunch that the mole must be there."

"It's a premonition again..." Bernie squinted his eyes and made a please gesture: "Don't forget that you are just a warrior, not an astrological fortune teller!"

"Haha, it's hard to say. Maybe I will do this when I get old."

"Oh, that must be Bran's worst fortune teller. Well, action in ten minutes!"

After finishing speaking, Bernie led half of the cavalry around from the right alleyway.

Powis's side was not far from the house No. 83, so there was no need to waste much effort. With a wave of his hand, the guard cavalry slowly approached their destination under the cover of the company's abandoned houses.

"Well, the last house at the end of the street is No. 103. This should be No. 100. Damn, there's another one that collapsed. Number... this is No. 90. Oh, I found it."

With poor arithmetic skills, a few minutes later, Powis and the cavalry successfully found House No. 83, which was a relatively complete two-story attic.

Sniffling, Powers grinned and said: "Haha, I can tell at a glance that there must be a mole hiding here... Surround me. If anyone dares to make a little noise, I will crush their legs."

The cavalrymen were excited when they heard this, nodded silently, lay on the ground and carefully surrounded them.

Powers has been in Shanxi City for a while, and everyone knows that his style of conduct is completely different from that of Dempsey, who took office. Such cruel words are not just words.

Fortunately, after a few more minutes, Powis and his cavalry successfully surrounded the two-story attic building.

"How long?" Powers asked in a low voice, carefully observing the situation in the attic.

"There are about two minutes left, Mr. Director." A cavalryman beside him looked at the hourglass in his hand and gave an imprecise time, but it was not much different.

Powers licked his lips: "Go on, load up the crossbow, and shoot me a round first."

"yes!"

The crossbow is not the standard equipment of the security hall, the longbow is. However, after Powis suffered this fate at the hands of Tang En, whether in Liva City or now in Shanxi City, he was the first to get this kind of weapon with a short killing range and short attack time.

In fact, according to the assassin's explanation, there is only one assassin living here temporarily, so just surrounding him should be able to solve the problem. However, in order to train the cavalry under his command, Powis decided to go into trouble.

Powers squinted at the last wisp of sand falling from the hourglass, suddenly waved his hand and shouted: "Attack!"

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...

Dozens of crossbow arrows roared out and shot through the broken wooden doors, windows and other weak points of the second-story attic.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...

The cavalry holding crossbows were divided into two echelons. After the first round was fired and the crossbows were quickly installed, the following round rushed to follow. Although there was a pause in the middle, this did not affect the continuity of the attack at all.

Bang, the attack still had an effect. A black figure next to the window on the second floor was hit by several arrows and fell down.

"Haha..." Smiling up to the sky, Powers got up from his hiding place, listened to the sound of crossbows piercing the air from the street not far away, and laughed wildly, "Bernie, Bernie, I am still lucky, you are so lucky If there is no mole, I will shoot a hairy hairy hairy..."

Bang bang bang...

With a stammering tone, in the sight of Powers who opened his mouth in astonishment, the second-story attic suddenly trembled, and dozens of explosions sounded almost simultaneously. Immediately, a series of black shadows broke through the wall from all directions and rushed towards the thin defense line composed of surrounding cavalry.

What's the situation, isn't there only one... The thought passed in a flash, and Powers reacted quickly and rushed forward and shouted: "Surround me..."

Before he finished speaking, Powers automatically closed his mouth and turned pale.

Those men in black were very skilled. After breaking into the cavalry defense line, dozens of colorful rays of fighting spirit lit up one after another. This is undoubtedly terrifying, because it represents an equal number of fighting spirit warriors. However, they may have been a little panicked because they were attacked instantly, so these men in black didn't bother much. Some of them were injured and rushed away quickly from the cavalry around them.

As for the guard cavalry, most of them were just ordinary strong men. It was rare to see those who could burst out with fighting spirit, so they couldn't stop these people. Before Powis could rush forward and leave one behind, the opponent had already formed a comprehensive breakthrough. Although they can still be seen, the terrain here makes it impossible to round them up.

"**!"boom……

Powers threw out a red sword light and smashed a low wall. He stopped chasing, his face was as gloomy as water, and his scarlet eyes were about to spit out fire.

Things happened so fast, I originally thought I was just killing a mole, but unexpectedly it triggered a whole series of things. And after injuring several people here, Powis could only watch the other party escape. How could this not make him furious?

The corner of his mouth twitched, Bovis's chest rose and fell several times, and then he turned and walked towards the black shadow that had fallen earlier.

Night clothes, black turban, standard thief and assassin attire.

He roughly took off his scarf, put his fingers in front of the person's nose for a few seconds, and then touched his neck relentlessly. Finally, Powers withdrew his arm and his face became even more ugly.

"What are you still doing? Search, search, search!"

With furious roars, the cavalry quickly rushed into the two-story attic, but found nothing except some food, a few blood stains and a sword.

Obviously, in the few rounds of crossbow arrows fired just now, except for the unlucky guy in front of him who was hit because he was standing too close to the window, no one was killed.

"What... uh, what's going on?" Not far away, Bernie carried a groaning middle-aged man around the corner, and then looked at the chaotic situation here and couldn't help but be shocked.

…

Once the two sides communicated, things would naturally become clear.

Bernie threw the injured middle-aged man to the ground and said a little depressed: "Old Bao, this is the mole we were told before. We were not tricked. Well, you should have bumped into something accidentally... so many Man, are the moles having a meeting?”

This is undoubtedly a helpless result, or it can only be said that Powers is so lucky that he can encounter this kind of thing even if he goes to the wrong place.

Powers looked around at the sword in his hand. He was silent for a while, then raised his head and said, "It's a bit strange... they shouldn't be moles."

There is no actual basis for the inference, but from the words of Powes, who has been dealing with assassins for decades, it is almost a conclusive conclusion.

Bernie frowned when he heard this: "Oh? Is he a bounty hunter?"

"Who knows." Powers straightened his back, took a deep breath, his right eye flashed coldly, and he casually threw out the sword in his hand: "No matter who it is..."

"Ah..." With a short scream, the middle-aged man lying on the ground was stabbed directly in the heart by the sword.

"Since you fall in my eyes, Powers, you must stay!"
