Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 1036: Earth Snake

The woman who had pounced on Adele had a scarlet glow on her right index finger. Adele knew that something was wrong. It must be a sign that some kind of killing move was about to be launched. She was not a good melee fighter, but her agility was not inferior to anyone else's, so she had to jump and dodge. The moment he moved, he suddenly felt dizzy, and the world in his eyes began to spin. After a brief blur of consciousness, when she recovered, Adele was about to fall to the ground.

She propped herself up in time, but the halo on the woman's index finger had already popped out.

"Miss Adele!" A soldier closest to her pounced on the woman, blocking Adele's path. Then Adele saw three dots of light appear on his shoulders and back. The scarlet dots of light expanded to the size of fists. The warrior's back was torn open, and three sprays of blood sprayed out onto Adele's face.

Blood is hot!

Adele glanced at Regis on the other side, regretting not bringing her sniper rifle with her. But at such a close distance, her gun was useless. At this moment, the two warriors pulled her up from the left and right and ran towards the entrance of the bar. When Adele saw the rest of the warriors pouncing on the woman, she screamed and her hands flushed red. Every time a ball of light shot out, a hole the size of a fist would explode on the body of a warrior, and every single one of them would be fatal!

She knew that the warriors were using their lives to hold the women back.

Just as they were about to leave the bar, the main entrance was packed with guests rushing out of the bar. Suddenly, a few guests came to the side of the warriors. All of them flickered with light in their sleeves. They took out a dagger and stabbed at the two warriors. The two looked at each other, shouted and lifted Adele up, throwing her out of the crowd. Adele slid out of the door, and at the corner of her eyes, she saw the two warriors being overwhelmed by killers disguised as guests. She could no longer see the two figures and could only see the blood fountain spurting out.

When she landed on the ground, Adele struggled and ran in the direction of the hotel. She didn't have time to grieve. All of this was definitely a trap, a trap for them. Otherwise, there would be two experts hidden in a mere tavern. Moreover, he drugged their drinks, which was probably why Rick was so easily killed and Regis was knocked unconscious before he could even react. As for herself, her head was heavy and her eyelids weighed more than 1,000 jin. But Adele did not let herself fall, and bit the tip of her tongue from time to time to stimulate her resistance with pain.

She didn't need to turn around to know that the woman was chasing after her.

It was a race against death, and Adele was relieved when she saw Laura appear not far away with her sword in her hand. An unwilling groan sounded from behind, and then the sense of danger dissipated. Laura threw away her sword and rushed to Adele's side, her hands supporting the girl. Adele only had time to point in the direction of the tavern, and said, "Quickly go and save..."

She fainted.

When she opened her eyes again, she first saw the ceiling illuminated by the lights. After a moment of confusion, Adele remembered Regis and the others, and sat up with a cry of alarm. Her shoulders were pressed by a pair of powerful hands, and she saw Alan's gentle eyes. Ellen smiled at her and said, "Relax, it's okay."

Only then did Adele start crying, and she could clearly remember the faces of the soldiers who had lost their lives to stall the killers. Without them, she would never have escaped from the sand of time. However, she had never felt that her life was so heavy. Adele cried her head off on Ellen's shoulder. Ellen was speechless, but she patted her pink back quietly.

Seeing this, Lucy smiled and left the room.

It was only after a moment that Adele managed to control her emotions. She propped herself up, wiped away her tears, and stared into her still swollen eyes and asked, "Where are Regis and the others?"

Anger flashed in Alan's eyes, and then he said with a heavy heart, "When Laura and Nelly arrived, the people in the tavern had already left." They couldn't find anyone but Rick and a few of the soldiers' corpses. Fares and Regis should have been taken away. It looks like they're fine for now. Don't worry, I'll get them back. No matter who the other party is, no one can harm my companion like this! "

"I also want to help." '"I owe them my life," said Adele, clenching her pink fist. "If I don't kill that woman, I'll never sleep peacefully again."

"I know, but before that, you should rest. You need to adjust your condition before you can avenge them, right?" Ellen patted Adele on the shoulder. "You're too tired tonight. Rest first. I'm leaving."

After leaving Adele's room, Alan came to the open space behind the hotel. There was a row of corpses on the open space. Apart from Rick, there were also a few warriors. Clerk Graham was angry with a man who seemed to be the sheriff of the district. Alan coughed softly. Graham looked up at Alan and immediately changed his face. He sighed, "I didn't expect such a terrible thing to happen, Lord Alan. Don't worry, we will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation."

Ellen squatted down and removed the cloth covering Rick's face. "In such a short period of time, we were able to arrange for two Level 20 and above experts to be drugged in their drinks," he said. Someone who can make such an arrangement, I think his background is definitely not simple. I doubt that Mosaio will be able to interfere in such an incident and give me a satisfactory explanation? "

Graham's expression immediately became very exciting. After he knew about this matter, he already knew that it was not for the Mosaic Orr authorities to interfere. As Ellen said, the person who could make such an arrangement was probably not someone he could afford to offend as a clerk. Even the mayor was unwilling to involve himself in this matter. However, this had happened in Morcerori after all, and there were some things that Graham had to say on the stage.

Now that Allen had asked him a question, he was speechless.

Alan waved his hand. "Forget it. You won't end up in trouble. I'll take care of this myself."

Graham breathed a sigh of relief and asked casually, "Then, my lord, what do you want to do with it?"

"How should we deal with it?" Alan took off the shroud on the corpses of the dead and remembered their faces. "Of course, blood is a debt. Whoever he is, he must pay the price for what he did tonight."

Graham trembled, and the young viscount in front of him, though his tone was calm, revealed an undisguised killing intent in every word. The clerk had begun to doubt whether he could sleep tonight.

Alan looked at the last corpse and stood up. He turned to the sheriff and said, "Can you tell me who did it?"

The sheriff hesitated. Alan walked over to him and said indifferently, "If you don't want to say it, it's fine. I won't make things difficult for you." Then he turned his back to Graham and said, "Fortunately, one of my companions escaped, and she told me that he seemed to be a local snake." I don't know which local snakes they are, but it doesn't matter. I will kill them one by one until someone tells me their identities. I think Mr. Mayor will understand what I'm doing when something like this happens just after we arrive in Mosaiore. As for disturbing the security of the city, please forgive me. "

Graham sighed and kicked the sheriff angrily, "Who else are you going to cover up and tell Lord Alan everything you know? Or you're going to the dungeon!"

The sheriff plopped down on his knees and shouted, "I say, I say, Lord Alan. According to what the pub guests described at the time, they should be the Thriller Snake's men. They are one of Morse Orry's largest gangs and have been in the vicinity of Fish Harbor all year round. They are a warehouse at Pier 7 of the harbor. I can get someone to take you there, my lord."

'"Laura, stay here," Ellen said immediately, "in case someone comes after me the moment I leave. Nelly, get the other sisters to follow me." He ordered another twenty Mountain King warriors and let the people called by the sheriff lead the way. As soon as he walked out of the hotel, Alan saw a slender figure. Under the street lamp, Adele's eyes flashed with flames. The girl slapped her sniper rifle and said, "You want to leave me? No way!"

In a warehouse at Fishport Harbor, the short man who had killed Rick squatted on a container. The cargo box was filled with fish that had just arrived, and it emitted a strong fishy smell. On top of it was a layer of dry ice, revealing traces of coldness. The man looked at the field. Regis was still unconscious. Fares, who was covered in wounds, was tied up and hung upside down under the beam of the warehouse. He was exhausted and didn't even have the strength to break free from the rope.

Not far away, a man tattooed with ferocious black snakes was scolding the woman who had lost Adele. The short man laughed gloatingly. When the woman heard the laughter, she turned her head and glared at him angrily. The man hurriedly turned his face away and whistled, pretending not to hear anything.

"You shouldn't have missed," said Cruise, the leader of the Trembling Snake, looking at one of his two subordinates, Jenny, known as the Scarlet Snake. "In that case, our success would be in vain. It would be very difficult for me to explain it to that lord."

Jenny rubbed her fingernails with a setback and said, "Boss, I don't want to. But those people are not simple. Let's not talk about anything else, just talk about it." She nodded at Fares and continued, "If it weren't for you, I think Steven would have been killed."

The man squatting on the fish box shouted, "Bullshit, I'm about to knock him down. Boss just got punched."

"Stop talking. In short, it's better to hand over these two as soon as possible." Cruise roared.

Jenny raised her head and said, "I heard that the heads of these people invited Mr. Mayor to the reception tonight. The identity of the other party is not simple. Boss, we offended him for the sake of that lord. Aren't you afraid of losing money on this deal?" josei

'"How could we lose money? They agreed to give us 20% of the port dividend after this deal. And it's permanent. Think about it, after tonight, we can sleep on the golden mountain." Cruise laughed.
