The crossbows in Twilight City are heavy-duty city defense equipment. The crossbow arrows used are 4 meters long and as thick as a strong man's arm. They are specially used to hunt extremely large creatures. If they are shot at close range, even the earth-walking dragon will not be able to resist it.

One shot.

In the entire Twilight City, I am afraid that only this kind of heavy ordnance can deal with the extremely resilient Wolfe.

The ballista was usually fixed on the city wall, and its disassembly was extremely cumbersome. It could never be dismantled by one person, so Paladin rushed to the city wall with more than a dozen soldiers, including Baisalugo.

On the way, Baisa asked quickly: "Paladin, how are the civilians in the city? Are they all hiding?"

Paladin nodded: "Well, everyone has received the news and gone home. The streets are basically cleared, and there are no casualties."

"It's good that there were no civilian casualties." Baisa breathed a sigh of relief.

Lugo cursed and said: "Fortunately we didn't go to that banquet, we were all on duty outside, otherwise we would have been blown to ashes by the aliens."

Baisa opened and closed his mouth, quickly approached Paladin, looked a little hesitant, and lowered his voice and said: "Paladin..."

Paladin realized that Baisa had something to say, but he was worried about the crowd around him. After all, Lugo was an outsider, and the other soldiers were also from the original Twilight City forces. Unlike the two of them, they were comrades who had served together in Xilin Town for more than ten years.

Baixa winked at Baixa, and the two of them distanced themselves from the team.

Paladin walked in front: "Say."

Baisa frowned and asked, "What do you think about the explosion at this banquet?"

Paladin shook his head: "How can you tell? I have never seen such a big explosion. This is definitely not the alchemy of our world. It must be the work of aliens."

Baisa's eyes were wandering: "If the alien wanted to blow up Kino, why was Kino okay, but the alien with the black knife had burns on his body?"

Paladin didn't look back: "What then?"

"Don't you think this is strange? When the explosion occurred, Chino was not at the scene, but in a safe area of ​​the square... Why was he there?!" Baisa's body began to tremble unconsciously, as if he remembered something.

Horrible things. "This is not the only strange thing. After the explosion, everyone and Kino went to the ruins to search for survivors. All the people we found died inexplicably, including Fike Troy. None of them survived.

!”

Paladin still didn't look back: "With such a big explosion, it's normal to die from serious injuries."

Baisa's face was so gloomy that he was about to drip water: "No... I have checked the injuries of several people. They are definitely not fatal injuries. There is absolutely room for rescue and they will not die on the spot, but they died suddenly! You understand me.

What do you mean?! Someone killed them in some invisible way! And what they were saying before they died...the God of Death..."

Seeing that Paladin was silent, Baisa continued: "I have noticed that when they say 'Death', their eyes are always looking at Kino. Don't you think all this..."

"Shut up!" Paladin finally turned around and bumped into Baixa. With the help of the torch, he could clearly see that Paladin's face was pale, even his lips had no trace of blood, and his forehead was covered with big beads of sweat.

Paladin grabbed Baixa's arm with force and pulled him further, his fearful eyes were like those hiding from the prey of a wild beast: "Do you think I am a fool? I discovered something was wrong with Kino before all of you, that is, from the time I seized Mir

Starting from the salt crystal of Luo Caravan, I felt that he was very abnormal!"

"That kind of cold and efficient thinking, the killing skills that are invisible to the naked eye, the profound way of speaking, so many moon coins of unknown origin, the extraordinary power that inexplicably appeared in him... and the aliens from outside, who have obviously already

He disappeared for 2,700 years, but suddenly appeared frequently recently, and he always targeted Kino... Do you think I haven't thought about this?!"

"Let me tell you straight, that person is not Kino Van Helsing at all! The good-for-nothing before has been replaced a long time ago! He just keeps his original appearance, but there is actually another person in his body!"

Baisa's face turned pale in an instant: "You mean, he really planned the explosion in the executive mansion, and he also killed the survivors in order to cover up..."

Paladin suddenly covered Baisa's mouth to stop him from continuing to speak, and his voice was cold: "Listen, I don't care what you saw or what you thought in your heart, I want you to hide it in your stomach and just treat it like a

Never noticed! Never, ever tell anyone these things, not to Lugo, not to me, and never ask Kino!"

Baisa subconsciously pushed away Paladin's hand, gritted his teeth tightly, and his voice was trembling: "But so many innocent people have died... They obviously did nothing wrong... For example, the maid named Bai Zhi, she

What did she do wrong? She obviously did nothing wrong, so why did she die so sadly?! What’s even more ridiculous is that before she died, she protected Kino’s favorite food... I can’t turn a blind eye to this kind of cruelty.

!”

"Brother, I know you are a person with a strong sense of justice, but please listen to my advice and live a smarter life. Your ideal is to punish evil and promote good, which is no problem, but you can only do this while you are alive, and you can do nothing else when you are dead.

No more, do you understand?" Paladin subconsciously glanced in the direction of the executive mansion and asked in a deep voice, "Besides, isn't Kino treating you badly?"

Baisa was silent for a moment, lowered his head and said: "He is very good to me... I am where I am now because of his gift..."

Paladin slapped Baisa hard on the head, as if to wake him up: "Isn't that right?! Eat when you should, drink when you should, and don't worry about things you shouldn't. Let me tell you, we

The smartest among them is Lugo. His heartless, simple-minded loyal dog is Kino’s favorite type.”

Baisa clenched his fists: "But those innocent people who died..."

"What can you do?" Paladin interrupted him directly, "Are you stronger than Chino and can knock him out with one punch? Or are you in a higher position and with more power than him?"

Baisa was speechless.

Paladin looked at him solemnly: "Baisa, you must remember one thing. Kino brought us out of Shirin Town. This was an opportunity and a kind of imprisonment. He changed our humble origins, but at the same time

, our destiny is also bound to him."

"He is promoted by his superiors, and you and I will rise to the top along with him; if he falls, as his confidants, you and I will definitely be implicated and liquidated! So we and he can only share honor and disgrace, advance and retreat together, there is no second place.

A choice.”

Baisa was silent, and the complex expression in his eyes slowly disappeared... No, it was better to say that it was hidden than disappeared. Whether it would reappear in the future is unknown.

Paladin warned: "Listen, the topic ends here. If anyone comes to investigate this matter in the future, no matter who asks you, you will bite him to death - the explosion at the banquet was caused by an extraterrestrial visitor, and Kino has nothing to do with it.

It doesn't matter, we tried our best to rescue, but couldn't save anyone."

Baisa closed his eyes and nodded silently.

Suddenly, he realized something: "Wait a minute... In Kino's plan, there can't be any survivors in this banquet, so..."

"Well..." Paladin's eyes turned sinister and terrifying, "That's why I have to use the ballista."
