Chapter 1003 Section 234 Capturing the Free Blade
Chapter 1003 Chapter 234. Capturing the Blade of Freedom
New Royal Capital, Outer City, Stinky Sock Street.
This is destined to be a place that people love and hate. Those who are fleeing or looking for a place to stay can't find a cheaper and less dangerous place to live than Stinky Sock Street.
However, due to the close proximity to the slums and the flow of immigrants, the security here is not much better than that of the slums.
On the bright side, chaos brings opportunities, allowing many professionals and people trying their luck to make their mark here.
At this moment, on the second floor of a house on Stinky Sock Street, several figures were sitting by the stove, plotting the results of the past few days.
"I developed three people. They are all young and strong. Their relatives died in the kingdom's great migration and plague. They have no gratitude to the kingdom."
"Very good, we need people who are full of hatred for the kingdom, but be careful not to let hatred go to their heads and kill innocent people indiscriminately. We want to eliminate tyranny, not become tyranny."
"I have developed seven, but two of them are weak-willed and only join us for status and to be superiors."
"We don't need people like this. They can choose us for wealth and status, and they can betray us for wealth and status."
"I have only developed two, but they are women and can get close to those nobles to help us spy on the news."
"No...I refuse, and you have to review your ideas! We want to bring happiness to the people, not let them become a tool for us to achieve our goals!"
When the leader of these people reprimanded, a middle-aged man hurriedly rushed in outside the door. He looked like the common civilians on the street, with a sad expression suppressed by life.
"No, it's bad, a group of city guards are coming outside!"
The leader, who had a scar at the corner of his eye and didn't look like a good man, thought for a moment and said, "Don't be nervous, maybe a murder has occurred."
The middle-aged man's mouth was trembling: "No, they said they would come in to capture the Blade of Freedom..."
The leader frowned and went to the window, opened a corner of the curtain, and saw the tall group of city guards who were being avoided by passers-by.
The leading blond young man is shouting: "I am the City Guard, under the jurisdiction of Sheriff Herner, the captain of the ninth team under the Bourne City Guard, Mr. Olme! I came to Stinky Sock Street to search for the Blade of Liberty. of!"
The hearts of the companions on the side gradually sank into the valley: "He came for us..."
At this moment, the leader saw the men beside the blond captain suddenly raised their heads and looked over.
He suddenly lowered the curtains and shrank back behind the wall, his heart beating fast.
What a keen sense...has it been discovered?
…
Maria, who was dressed as a guard, withdrew her gaze and leaned close to Annan to whisper a few words.
"Um?"
Annan raised his head and looked at the second floor window in surprise.
Is there really a Blade of Freedom hidden here?
But it makes sense that they would appear in a place like this...
"Remember their location, later... no, go now and ask them what they need, food, supplies, or weapons." Annan was worried that they would be frightened by him and escape. That would be bad.
The Blade of Liberty and the Blade of Freedom...are different.
This is not a contradictory statement. The nobles headed by Renaldo are not so much seeking refuge in Liberty City as they are betting on never putting goose eggs in one basket.
If Liberty City wins, they will get a death warrant. Correspondingly, if Liberty City loses, they will spare no effort to attack Liberty City until those who know the secret will never be able to speak.
Therefore, compared with the nobles, these poor people are the real property of Liberty City, and they are the people who will build Liberty City in the future.
"Will rash contact expose them?" Maria asked.
"It depends on how good the Stun rat is."
After all, she was the sister of the champion rat. Maria was aroused to be competitive and left the team to go into the alley.
Annan withdrew his gaze and continued walking through the streets with shouts.
"If you have any news about the Freedom Blade, you can tell me! The reward will be generous, and the city guards will ensure your safety -"
"I know!"
Not far away, a voice suddenly sounded on the street.
The crowd watching the excitement dispersed, revealing a gangster who shrank his neck and looked uneasy.
"you know?"
Annan looked at him for a few times, but unfortunately, his warlock talent could not detect lies. Thinking of Maria saying she saw the Blade of Freedom, he deliberately threatened: "You know the consequences of telling us false news."
"I……"
The gangster was about to retreat, but when he noticed that many people in the crowd were interested, he gritted his teeth and said, "Captain, many people here know about it, and they can testify for me!"
Many people know...could they be exposed?
"Where are they?" Annan remained calm.
"You come with me!"
The gangster put on an excited look and walked towards the house where Maria pointed out the anomaly.
Annan narrowed his eyes and regained his composure after watching him walk in.
On the first floor of the room, the leader who changed rooms and took a peek was slightly startled: "What's going on? Do we still have our own people around?"
"No, they are from the Kingdom." The middle-aged man, the owner of this house, whispered.
"Aren't we also..." One member realized something: "What do you mean?"
"Those are the bastards who committed crimes in our name."
The leader murmured, watching as several city guards began to knock on the door.
Bang bang bang——
After a while, the door was opened, and a group of strong men with unkind expressions walked out.
"You are the Free Blade?"
"What do you want from me?" The leading man was sweating and steaming with his bare upper body, looking like he was disturbed.
Annan raised his eyebrows slightly. These guys are bolder than he thought... or is it because they have the support of big shots and are fearless?
Never mind, it doesn't matter. He is here for them.
Annan sneered: "I am the nemesis of the Free Blade. If you run into me, you will be like running into cotton!"
The clerk whispered: "You are wrong."
"You are right. I will wrap you tightly with cotton and burn you to death with fire!!!"
"He seems to hate us very much..."
The members hiding behind the window talked to themselves, "Is he the descendant of a noble?"
The leader frowned: "I don't know why, he always gives me a familiar feeling..."
"You seem to have a keen sense."
A frivolous female voice suddenly sounded behind them. Everyone was startled and drew their weapons, while the leader looked out the door.
Maria on the stairs stepped down: "Don't look, the person watching at your door is fine, he didn't notice me."
"Who are you?" The leader didn't recognize Maria who changed out of the city guards' clothes.
"I'm here to help you."
"Sorry, we don't need help from people who don't know where they are." The leader declined.
"Is this what Liberty City taught you?" Maria threw a purse and was caught by the middle-aged man. "Here is a bag of gold nar, is it righteous or evil?"
The leader's tone was still cautious, but without hostility: "Who are you?"
"Just a passing rat man."
