"No!" A roar sounded not far away, and soon fell into silence.

The faces of the ability users who were still rejoicing changed greatly. They did not rush over to see what was going on. After all, they had rich combat experience and knew that there might be traps waiting for them.

When they arrived at the scene of the crime, the body of the killed esper was completely cold.

"It seems that the Beast King and Shadow are really nearby," an ability user came to the conclusion after checking: "This is Shadow's technique, the internal organs were shattered."

"Blow the whistle and get everyone to gather together. No more people will die." Leander's face was gloomy.

Grand Duke Star is people-oriented. As long as you catch his eye, he will regard you as his beloved general. If you fail in the mission, he will not do anything to you, but if someone dies during your mission, he will be devastated.

If you love a general, he will cause trouble for you.

The pervert was poisoned by snake venom, but his life was not in any danger.

If the mission ends here, Grand Duke Stan will not blame everyone.

Things are different now. If a person with abilities dies, someone will naturally need to take responsibility. According to Grand Duke Stan's usual style, he may reprimand and then whip him a few times.

The punishment is neither painful nor itchy, but for these face-conscious people, no one wants to be slapped in the face in public.

"How about retreating?" Splinter Simons encouraged from the side.

He is a poor fourth-level ability user, but he doesn't want to go against the powerful shadow of a fifth-level ability user, even if he has many clones.

"Then retreat!" Leander heard what the Splinter Man said and felt that he had found a step.

There is nothing wrong with his decision-making, and it makes sense no matter where it is taken. In the forest, facing a shadow ability user who is good at assassination and a beast king ability user who can control wild beasts, it is like an old man eating arsenic because he wants to live longer.

.

When they come here, the best result is to be able to make a surprise attack and control or kill the target.

Now that the raid failed, there was no need to hold on to save face, so a group of people nodded, and no one was willing to continue taking risks.

They quickly retreated from the forest as if they were running away, and all of them were close together, no one was left alone.

Sometimes I can’t understand why the characters in horror movies in movies and TV series are obviously very scary, but they still act alone, and then they unexpectedly deliver bloody scenes to the audience.

"It's not easy to explain if we go back like this," a person with abilities said after making sure they were not being followed after leaving the forest.

It's really not easy to explain. So many people went out in disgrace, and one of them died and another was injured. There's no need to think about rewards. There might be a whip.

It doesn't matter if he divides people. He just received ten lashes not long ago. A few more lashes won't have much impact.

However, Leandre didn't think so. He thought for a while and said: "We can't return empty-handed. I remember there is a village not far ahead. Let's get some heads, let's say they are the helpers of Shadow and Beast King. After a lot of fighting,

, captured these thieves."

This is a good idea, and some people immediately expressed their approval eager to try it.

It is not uncommon to kill good people and take credit for their crimes anywhere. In such a barren mountainous area, as long as they act quickly and the scene is handled cleanly, it is impossible for anyone to find out that they did it.

The dead cannot speak anyway, and only they themselves know their grievances.

Not everyone agrees with this idea.

On the one hand, he received a little punishment, but on the other hand, he slaughtered a whole village, which was too heartbreaking.

"It's not necessary. If you take off these heads, you will know they are villagers. The Grand Duke is not that easy to fool." Separatist Simons persuaded.

"Simmons, aren't you funny? Did you join the Knights at some point and learned those ridiculous chivalry spirits?"

If they are to be classified by their attributes, these ability users are basically reckless and desperadoes. Their growth is often accompanied by distortions and strange eyes, so they do not pay much attention to the moral bottom line.

Chivalry is a curse word among their group.

Simmons blushed and said, "You have the ability to say such things in front of the Grand Duke."

Speaking of which, Grand Duke Stan is also a knight of the kingdom. Every lord of the Long Island Free Federation is a knight, and Grand Duke Stan is no exception.

"Simmons, stop making trouble, finish it quickly and go back to life." Someone interrupted him and said impatiently: "It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not. We are just giving him a step up. If we gain nothing, we will still lose.

If we kill a person with abilities, his face will not look good. And if we kill a group of the enemy's accomplices, it can be regarded as a triumphant return."

Simmons finally stopped talking. In essence, he was not actually a good person. He only occasionally thought of his sister-in-law, who was also powerless, and sympathized with the weak.

The battle happened suddenly and ended quickly.

These villagers are all ordinary people, at most they are some hunters who hunt in small mountains and forests.

Compared with ordinary people, he is a warrior, but compared with ability users, he is simply vulnerable. The weird attack methods of ability users are fully displayed at this time, and villagers often don't even know how they died.

Su Mo was playing cards with Grand Duke Stan and the old butler.

Poker is easy to play and easy to get started. The two NPCs also learned several ways to play in a very short period of time, and finally fell deeply into a game called Landlord Dou Zhu and couldn't extricate themselves.

They played until Leandre came back with his team to resume his life.

More than a dozen heads and a pile of monster corpses were thrown on the ground, and the smell of blood rushed towards them. It really looked like they were returning in triumph.

However, Su Mo's heart was filled with huge waves.

It took him a lot of effort to resist the urge to take out a weapon and kill all the people in front of him - not because he was afraid of death, but if he had the ability, he would never resist it.

With his knowledge, he could certainly tell at a glance that these dead bodies were actually innocent people.

To get enough of these dozen young heads, these beasts must have slaughtered a whole village.

Su Mo has a characteristic: the angrier he is, the more he can calm down. This calmness has saved his life many times.

At this time, he could even walk over with a smile, kicked the head on the ground, and said: "Congratulations to everyone, although I didn't catch the shadow and the beast king, but I cut off their wings. If I meet them next time,

, we won’t let them escape.”
