The two hands that stretched out from the alley covered their mouths with an irresistible force.
The firelight was shining, and a patrol of at least dozens of people hurried through the street outside.
The shouts of orders come and go, one after another.
Thales and Ramon struggled desperately, but the other party just tapped their necks a few times, which destroyed their strength to speak!
Until Ramon opened his eyes wide and saw clearly the person in front of him in the dim moonlight - the black sword that cut off their back.
The pale black sword covered their mouths and pressed them against the wall of the alley.
Until the patrol leaves.
Thales lamented in his heart.
"Hurry up!" Black Sword let go of their mouths and said weakly: "Asheida is right behind."
Thales felt nervous again.
Without waiting for their answer, Heijian pulled the two of them out of another alley.
"I attracted at least three patrol teams... I don't know how long I can hold him off, but at least I can attract the attention of Longxiao City," Heijian touched the wall and panted while leading the way:
"We're walking down an alley. I suspect Asheida is searching for us from the sky."
Thales' heart moved.
"No."
The two members of the Brotherhood turned their heads at the same time.
Thales raised his head and frowned at Black Sword and Ramon: "He doesn't have to search for us from the sky."
"What?" Heijian kept walking and frowned.
Thales remembered what Asheida once told him in the chess and card room on Hongfang Street: the air magician can sense all the air movements in an entire street.
for example……
"Our breathing," Thales gritted his teeth and said, "He can track us through this."
At this time, Black Sword, who was leading the way, suddenly stopped.
Even Thales and Ramon became nervous.
At this moment, Thales suddenly realized that behind him, where Asheida and the patrol were supposed to meet, there was strangely no sound.
what happened?
"It's not just breathing," a familiar and pleasant male voice that made Thales' scalp tingle came from the front, "All the air flowing in your body is a beacon - as bright as a light in the dark night.
.”
Ramon trembled and took a step back.
Black Sword lowered his body solemnly, preparing to charge.
Thales sighed and looked at the alley ahead - Ashida Sarkon slowly stepped out from the corner like a ghost.
"Child, you are really disobedient," Aixida ignored Black Sword and Ramon, and just looked straight at Thales, the chill in her eyes becoming more and more frightening: "I must admit, those little tricks of yours combined with this
This smelly cockroach really gave me some trouble."
Ramon looked ugly, took a step back again, and looked around.
The black sword was still at the forefront, and he calmly pressed the strange sword on his waist.
"That's because you're not very friendly." Thales took a deep breath and clenched his fists.
This is a residential area - would it help if I shouted now?
Or will it be in vain to kill those who came out to watch the fun?
"Oh no."
"I'm already very friendly," Aixida shook her head and seemed to be in a stable mood: "But if you force me, you can only use some rough methods."
Thales narrowed his eyes.
He realized that there was something wrong with Asheida's words.
Sure enough, Aixida hooked her fingers.
Behind him, a small figure floated out.
A sobbing figure.
Thales's pupils shrank.
No.
It was a sloppy girl wearing glasses.
About eight or nine years old.
Under Asheida's control, she floated into the air, making a trembling sound of fear from time to time.
Damn it.
Thales looked at the girl in disbelief.
The girl's glasses were tilted to one side, and she looked at herself floating in the air in horror and panic.
However, the moment she saw Thales, she seemed to have found a life-saving straw.
It's him.
It's that boy.
The girl stretched out her young hands towards Thales, revealing the bruises on her wrists.
Tears of grievance flowed from her eyes, and she cried loudly.
Listening to the girl's cry, Thales took a deep breath.
He raised his gaze, with complicated and unspeakable emotions, and looked at the girl who was trembling with fear and sobbing in panic - Little Slippery.
Thales clenched his fists.
That girl.
Thelma Walton.
Little slippery head.
"Come back to me now—no more trouble."
"Unless..." Aixida said softly and raised her fingers: "Do you want to watch this little maid die?"
The little slipper in mid-air suddenly turned upside down, with his head facing downwards!
Thales breathed heavily!
At that moment, the little slipper was so frightened that he stopped crying.
Just floating aimlessly, sobbing softly in extreme fear and trembling.
Even Black Sword frowned.
Thales gritted his teeth.
"I know you won't come with me willingly," Aixida seemed to know what he was thinking, and chuckled: "So I took some precautions."
The little slippery head in the air turned around again.
The girl was so frightened that she lost consciousness, tears fell everywhere, and she couldn't even speak.
"This is a matter between us," Thales gritted his teeth, feeling complicated in his heart: "She has nothing to do with this!"
He looked at the fearful eyes behind the little slippery glasses.
In front of his eyes, there was a scene of the little naughty boy looking at the twitching Alex, covering his mouth and retreating in fear.
He recalled the scene where the little slipper's hand was tightly grasped by King Nun and a black ring was placed on it.
I remembered the trembling hands of the little naughty little girl when I pulled the girl away in the Hall of Heroes.
She didn't know anything at all, and she wasn't prepared for anything at all.
I was forced to face all this.
"Of course," Aixida spoke slowly and smiled: "I noticed that when you were in Hongfang Street, you cared about your companion very much?"
"Then let's see, do you care about this companion as much?"
The scene from long ago appeared in front of Thales' eyes.
Quaid, who was grinning ferociously, raised Coria, picked up the red-hot silver coin with one hand, laughed loudly, and pressed it on the beggar's face.
Collea.
Her struggle at that time.
The expression at that time.
The crying at that time.
Thales took a weak breath and looked at the little slippery head.
"If I go with you," Thales said weakly, "will you let her go?"
"No," Aixida's smile slowly disappeared, and he said expressionlessly: "I will keep her."
"Her fate will depend on how well you perform."
Thales took a breath.
"Your previous actions disappointed me," the Qi Magician said coldly: "This is a punishment for your uncooperative attitude - don't forget my seriousness just because of my friendliness."
"The magician is not something you can play with at will."
"Don't offend the strong easily," Aixida looked at him with deep meaning, and there was something in her words:
"Unless you become - just as powerful."
"do you understand?"
Thales was shocked.
He looked at the helpless little slippery man and thought of that day again.
That day, Kolya, who had a high fever and her face was sickly red, cried and laughed in front of him who was helpless in the sixth room.
【I'm not afraid because...】
【Because Thales always has a way.】
However, the moment Kolya's face was pressed with silver coins, the "sizzling" sound of blood boiling seemed to be heard again.
Thales closed his eyes and clenched his fists more and more tightly.
An inexplicable sadness and anger arose in my heart.
Thales always has a way.
I always have a solution.
"Ahida," Thales closed his eyes tighter and tighter. He took a deep breath and suppressed his trembling chest: "You bastard."
"Don't be angry, you are holding hostages..." Aixida snorted coldly: "I learned this trick from your friend in the fraternity."
At this moment, Thales felt a tightness in his left shoulder.
"That girl," Heijian sighed and put his hand on his shoulder: "Is she someone very important to you?"
Thales said nothing.
Asheida frowned slightly.
Thales raised his eyes.
"Mr. Black Sword." Thales shook his head with firm eyes:
"Please put your sword to my neck," Thales' words made Asheda frown: "Let's make a bet, which one is more important to him, my life or hers."
"Oh, child," Asheida sighed regretfully: "Guess what kind of punishment you will get for this sentence?"
silence.
Only the sobs of Little Slippery remained in the air.
Until that ordinary man broke the silence.
Black Sword smiled slowly and patted Thales on the shoulder.
"I'm telling you," Black Sword turned his head and looked at Aixida: "Don't listen to that guy..."
"Full of farts."
Thales raised his head in confusion.
"Stronger?" Black Sword drew out the sword from his waist and said contemptuously: "This arrogant immortal monster? Does he deserve to be called strong?"
Asheida's expression changed.
"He seems powerful."
"But don't forget," Heijian smiled brightly and spoke calmly, as if what he was seeing was just the most ordinary enemy, "In this world..."
"Hiding one's head and showing one's tail in the vast world..."
"Shivering for more than six hundred years..."
"Escaped in panic from countless battles..."
Thales frowned.
Aixida's expression changed.
Black Sword did not put the sword on Thales' neck like Thales said.
He took a step forward and looked at Aixida, with murderous intent flashing in his eyes:
"The weak one should be afraid..."
Black Sword stepped forward and bent his knees.
There was a cold light in his eyes.
"It's you."
"Disasters."
"Don't get the wrong spot!"
Thales said nothing.
Asheida's eyes flashed with blue light.
"Before you find this boy, monster," Black Sword raised his sword and pointed it straight at Asheida: "Our accounts haven't been settled yet."
The air magician stopped laughing.
"Do you want my life?" Heijian lightly challenged: "Come and get it."
"You poor weakling."
Aixida narrowed her eyes, blue light surging in her eyes.
The little slipper slowly fell to the ground.
"Don't get me wrong, child," Asheida replied calmly: "Your punishment will still continue."
"After I kill this cockroach."
The two looked at each other.
It seems like this is the final duel.
Thales held his breath.
He quickly thought about how he could respond to the different outcomes of the duel between the two.
Although Thales is not optimistic about Black Sword.
After all, the legendary anti-demon force...
At this moment.
"Ahhhh——"
Ramon’s exclamation came from behind!
Thales turned around suddenly!
Ramon was seen a dozen steps away from them, with his back to them.
He seemed to be trying to escape quietly.
But at this moment, Ramon turned back stiffly and looked at them.
Doctor Strange showed the greatest panic in his life.
His eyes were filled with shock and fear at the same time.
It seemed like I saw something extraordinary.
Black Sword's expression changed, and his figure moved.
The Black Sword no longer cared about the Chi Magic Master, but without hesitation, rushed towards Ramon who had encountered an unknown accident.
Thales narrowed his eyes in confusion.
What's wrong?
Soon, Thales would no longer have any doubts.
The next moment, a loud noise came!
"boom!"
Thales kept his eyes open.
He looked at Ramon before his eyes, alive...
exploded!
The strange doctor who was still alive and kicking a moment ago burst out with countless blood all over his body and scattered into countless pieces.
Thales watched all this blankly.
This is……
The force of the explosion set off air waves that shook the walls on both sides of the alley away!
"No!"
The black sword roared, passed Thales, chopped off a flying boulder with one sword, and rushed towards the place where Ramon exploded!
Thales raised his hands with difficulty to block the flying bricks, wood, earth and rocks.
The black sword rushed into the endless dust.
There was a fierce fighting sound inside, followed by the shocking roar of the black sword.
After a few dozen seconds, the roar of the black sword suddenly stopped.
Thales stared at all this blankly, not even noticing when Asheida came to his side.
"Back off." The Qi Magician said coldly to Thales.
Thales reacted.
He turned around and rushed towards the trembling little slider on the ground.
"It's okay..." Thales tried his best to comfort her, but his own heart was filled with fear as he looked at the dust.
Little Slippery grabbed Thales' arm tightly, gritted his teeth, and kept sobbing.
After a moment, a weak figure slowly walked out of the dust.
The person who came had a sword in his hand.
Thales's pupils shrank!
It was a jet black strange sword.
"Behold, those who dare to call us weak."
The visitor happily threw down the weapon of the black sword.
"Clang!"
The strange black sword fell to the ground.
"This is what happened to him."
The visitor chuckled.
No way?
Thales looked at the strange sword on the ground in disbelief.
Black sword?
He just...
The strange sword kept vibrating.
As if calling to its departed owner.
The visitor got closer and closer until he was completely out of the dust range.
Thales's expression changed.
He looked at the new uninvited guest with a horrified look on his face.
That is a weak girl.
With a lovely smile on his face.
Thales's stomach turned - the person coming brought back his most annoying memories.
"I'm still wondering, what is it that can make our Qi choose to raise the threshold?" The girl chuckled, tilted her head, and looked at them playfully: "Thanks to you raising the threshold without hesitation, I can
You found it here so quickly."
Asheida took a step forward with a cold face, blocking Thales' figure.
"Long time no see, my dear partner," the Qi Magic Master said calmly to the girl without changing his expression:
"Giza."
