365 Knife or Crossbow?

 Once again, Thales felt in surprise:

Time slowed down.

In the slow-motion vision, he could see clearly:

Nicolai shouted loudly, his face full of shock and anger.

Monty spread his legs with a stern look on his face, kept his right arm stretched out, and rushed towards the boy.

In front of his right arm, three flying knives were spinning in the air, flying towards Thales.

Seeing the three flying knives that were inevitable, Thales was shocked!

what to do?

Looking at the unpleasant situation in front of him, Thales took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

The air entered his lungs smoothly, decomposed and flowed, and turned into energy in the blood.

etc!

Thales' pupils moved, and he suddenly realized something was wrong!

He just took a breath of air, which took at least half a second.

But in front of me, everything in front of me...

But there is still no change in the slowing down time?

This is……

Thales exhaled again and was surprised to see that the flying knife in front of him only advanced less than an inch.

Sure enough, his heart was shaken: this time, his breathing just now was slightly faster than the "slow motion" around him!

So, it’s not just my thinking that’s getting faster now. Tails looked at Monty rushing towards him in surprise. This is the new ability of Hell River Sin?

But the feeling of weakness that followed made Thales realize that as he took this breath that was slightly faster than "slow motion", the sin of the Hell River in his body began to be consumed rapidly, and the finishing power he finally accumulated after recovery,

Almost empty.

Obviously, the new capabilities don't come without a cost.

But there was no room for him to think too much in front of him.

So Thales cleared his mind and made up his mind.

Actions such as not dodging or retreating consume too much finishing power and cannot be done at all.

Instead, before the flying knife comes, use the hell sense to calculate the trajectory, wind direction, and the opponent's dodge...

Then……

Thales gritted his teeth and pulled the trigger!

The next moment, time returned to normal.

Thales' eyesight blurred, he only felt pain in his left hand and right shoulder, and the arm crossbow in his hand vibrated at the same time!

"Clang!"

The crossbow of time fell to the ground.

"laugh!"

This is the sound of a crossbow arrow entering flesh.

"Watch out!"

Nikolai's roar just came.

Thales sat down on the ground in pain. The increasingly severe pain and hunger in his body made him extremely uncomfortable!

But before his eyes, Monty had already lost his balance and fell to the ground.

"hateful……"

The Death Crow cursed unwillingly and held down his left thigh with a painful look on his face. A crossbow arrow penetrated deeply into his flesh and blood, and the arrow shaft trembled.

The weak prince trembled and reluctantly pulled out the short-handled flying knives on his arms and shoulders. He was shocked: at the last moment, he escaped.

"This reaction and accuracy..."

Nicolai on the side looked at the prince in surprise, as if he no longer recognized him: "You still have this hand?"

Thales took a breath, ignoring that his hands were still bleeding, grabbed the arm crossbow, and rolled away from the place.

Get out of Monty's attack range.

The frightened prince ran to a safe area and wiped the sweat from his forehead with lingering fear. He only felt hungry and sore:

"so……"

"You finally don't want to pretend anymore, right?"

"Your loyalty doesn't just belong to the secret department."

As he spoke, Thales couldn't bear it any longer. He staggered forward to the horse left by Monty, took out a bag of dried meat, and stuffed it into his mouth hungrily.

This was probably the result of the boy with a mouth full of food tearing open a piece of dried meat, thinking about the sequelae left behind by stimulating life with the Sin of Hell River just now.

"Ah!"

Monty raised his head and stared at him angrily: "Dear little brat..."

Thales bit off the lid of the leather water bag, swallowed the dried meat with water, and smiled thoughtfully: "I see, that's what I said..."

"So he already knew about the Death Crow, and you told him."

Monty endured the severe pain in his thigh and said with a cruel look on his face: "What?"

"You know about Adele and Michael," Thales shook his head helplessly, feeling that his stomach was full at least: "So, he only learned about the Grand Duchess's life experience from you."

"The secret department plans to rescue me through you, and he knows this through you."

Following the prince's words, the eyes of the dead crow became sharper.

The meteorite was even more confused.

Thales thought of something and frowned: "So, he came here to use his strength to break the situation."

"damn it."

The prince swallowed the last bite of food and looked quite annoyed: "Thankfully, I was fooled by him. I thought I was deceived by him and regretted it for a long time."

From the other side came Nicolai’s dissatisfied questioning:

"What are you talking about, little prince?"

Thales ignored him and just shook his head.

"What do you mean by 'Principle 1' and 'tell him to shut up'?" Thales looked unhappy, his teeth itching with hatred: "As far as I know, there is only one person in the world who is so jealous and hateful of me.

You don’t even want me to speak.”

Prince Xingchen sighed: "So, in the final analysis, this is a fight between me and him."

"So, the Death Crow of the triple agent," Thales showed a kind and kind smile to Monty:

"Say hello to His Majesty Charmaine for me."

Nicolai was stunned.

Monty on the ground became more and more ferocious, slamming the ground hard: "Fuck!"

Finally, the three people under the sun tore off the last bit of disguise and exposed themselves to the eyes of the other two.

The next second, Thales walked slowly to Nicolai's mount and took out the luggage on the saddle: food, water, money bag...

Transfer them to your own mount.

The face of the meteorite changed: "Hey, you..."

"Shhh" Thales raised his index finger to his lips, interrupted him dissatisfied, and stuffed the last piece of Nicolai's bread into his saddle bag.

Then, in front of the wide-eyed eyes of the other two people, the prince listened intently, followed the sound into a rock crevice, and took out another horse, Monty's mount.

"What a fool!" Monty's face turned pale.

"Shhh" Thales shook his head unhappily, turned out a bag of crossbow arrows in front of him, and stuffed it into his luggage.

"The supplies and belongings for three people should be enough." He said to himself, leaning over the stream and filling three water bags.

The two men beside the rock and on the ground were not seriously injured and could only watch helplessly as Thales did all this.

"Damn it, little brat, come up here if you dare," Monty struggled to drag his seriously injured thigh and said viciously: "I will definitely kill you..."

Thales didn't let him continue. He only saw the young man shaking his head with a smile: "Well, let me tell you a story."

Both the Fallen Starman and the Death Crow showed ferocious looks towards him.

Obviously he doesn't want to hear any stories.

But the prince was still contented and said leisurely: "One day, two men passed by the wasteland and each dropped something. They were very panicked..."

Thales moved forward step by step, walked to a corner, and bent down.

"At this time, a prince suddenly appeared. He kindly stretched out his hands to the two people and asked: 'Don't panic, come, take a closer look, what you dropped...'"

Nicolai and Monty's expressions changed.

Thales straightened up, walked to the three horses, and raised two legendary anti-demon weapons with a smile: "Is it the knife in my left hand or the crossbow in my right hand?"

Time seems to have stood still.

The two of them stared at Thales.

The prince himself seemed unaware, and happily shook the Rising Sun Saber and Time Crossbow in his hands.

A few seconds later.

Nicolai was furious. He stared at Thales and gritted his teeth: "Fuck..."

Monty's eyes were unkind, and he accepted the Falling Star's words tacitly: "...your mother."

This time it was Tails' turn to change his expression.

"'Wrong answer'," Thales put away his smile and frowned: "The prince said angrily: 'You are all dishonest.'"

Thales shook his head seriously: "These things..."

He first tied the Rising Sun Saber to his waist, then hung the Time Crossbow on the saddle, showing a bright smile: "...Obviously they are all mine."

Staring at their expressions, Thales happily untied the reins, stepped on the stirrups, and got on his mount. The horse did not resist his riding. It seemed that ever since the Silver Shadow Man at the bottom of the mountain gave him that blessing, the horse

I rarely reject myself anymore.

Thales snorted, looked at the sky, and smiled in relief.

"You know," Thales exhaled and touched the crossbow quiver on the saddle: "I can raise the crossbow now and shoot you all to death here."

"Huh," Nicolai said coldly, "Let's give it a try."

Monty was silent and concentrated on dealing with his leg injury.

Thales was riding on the horse, looking at the two men who were seriously injured and unable to move, and suddenly smiled.

"No," the prince shook his head:

"Do you know what the difference between you and me is?"

The Fallen Star and the Deathcrow paused lightly.

Thales looked at the Faller.

"Nicolai, six years ago, it was indeed me who brought disaster to Longxiao City and brought you humiliation, but it was also me who led you to fight back and drove Lumba out of Longxiao City."

Nicolai snorted coldly.

"Our grievances are indeed somewhat entangled," Thales said with emotion when talking about the past, "But it doesn't matter. During the six years I was in the Palace of Heroes, we should have settled all our grievances."

"So, we don't owe each other anything from now on."

Nicolai looked at him coldly: "What a beautiful idea."

Thales chuckled.

But then his face became solemn, and he stretched out his hand to draw out the Rising Sun Saber: "But this sword..."

Thales looked at the golden saber silently.

Nicolai looked tense.

The next moment, Thales suddenly raised his hand and threw the Rising Sun Saber far away!

Nicolai and Monty were both shocked!

"Cang!" The saber fell at Nicolai's feet.

The Fallen Star stared blankly at the saber at his feet and didn't react for a long time.

"What are you doing?" Nicolai raised his head and asked through gritted teeth, "Pretending to be generous?"

"No, I'm not that noble. The bones in my body that you broke are still hurting," Thales sighed, with a serious face: "But this is the proof of the unfinished battle between you and Tuleha.

The weapon you use to protect Longxiao City."

"Your real enemy is not me. This is especially true after I leave. Instead of spending time and energy on me, you should think more about how to get back the knife that belongs to you."

"So, protect her," Thales said with a faint smile, "even for the sake of Longxiao City."

Nicolai's expression froze.

The prince turned to Deathcrow.

"Monty, we haven't known each other for long," Thales said with some amusement as he watched the other person break the crossbow with difficulty: "I have to say, no matter what the original intention was, it was thanks to your skillful scouting skills that you managed to get me out of Longxiao City.

Follow them and escort them out."

Monty frowned.

Thales sighed: "But you just shot me with a few more flying knives..."

"Then..." The prince patted the arm crossbow on the saddle and showed a wicked smile:

"I won't return this crossbow to you."

Monty's face changed, and he gritted his teeth angrily and cursed: "Get the fuck out of here."

"Hahaha" Thales laughed heartily.

Nicolai looked at all this and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

After a few seconds, Thales slowly stopped laughing.

"You said you were living in the darkness, in order to survive, no matter who your loyalty belongs to...but you reminded me of a person," he said thoughtfully, with deep eyes: "A damn Camas man."

The Death Crow gritted his teeth and said, "Fuck you."

"Believe me, Lumba is not a good employer. He is too cruel to himself." Thales pointed to the east and turned his eyes: "So one day in the future, when you are desperate again..."

"You might as well come to me."

"Maybe I'll give you a good price."

Monty's eyes moved.

Thales stared at him seriously: "Remember, this is mine, Thales Bright Star's promise."

Monty said nothing.

"So, let's say goodbye," the prince shrugged, showing his front teeth to the two of them:

"No more than that!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Thales swung his horse's reins and hit the other two mounts, driving them away.

"etc!"

Thales' arm paused slightly.

I saw Monty panting and raising his head: "It is very dangerous in the desert. Heat, lack of water, wind and sand, getting lost, enemies, any of them may kill you."

Thales frowned slightly.

"Only I know, only I know how to contact the responders of the Secret Service in the desert," the Death Crow gritted his teeth and said tremblingly: "You might as well tie me up and take me with you. I'm already injured like this anyway.

At least don't leave me here."

After listening to his words, Thales thought for a while.

He turned his head and looked to the south, seeing only endless rocks on the horizon.

"Let me tell you," Nicolai said coldly, "If you go into the desert alone, you will definitely die."

"But take him with you?"

Fallen Star sarcastically said: "You will die faster."

Monty glared at him.

"I told you that you would give me a good price?" Dead Crow Crow stared at him steadily: "How about starting from now on?"

Thales sighed.

"Okay, your words make me hesitate."

Monty's eyes lit up.

But Thales smiled again.

"But someone told me there's a good way to overcome hesitation."

Monty's face froze.

"That is……"

Thales waved to him happily: "Don't give yourself a chance to hesitate."

The next moment, Thales looked solemn, and the horse's reins hit the mount hard!

"Knock, knock, knock..."

As the sound of horse hooves sounded, the Prince of Stars raised his hooves towards the endless horizon.

Leave Exeter's borders completely.

Running towards his freedom.

Only the two people were left stunned, looking at each other.

It seemed like a long, long time passed.

Monty took a sharp breath, dragged his injured thigh, and looked at Nicolai solemnly.

"Damn it," Monty looked at the Rising Sun Saber at the other person's feet and frowned: "You really have a good relationship with him?"

The Fallen Starman also looked back at him coldly.

The next moment, Nikolai endured the severe pain in his shoulder, exerted force with his feet, kicked the Rising Sun Saber into the air, and caught it in his right hand!

The Death Crow snorted in pain and fell limply on the rock behind him.

The Meteorite took a deep breath, swung the golden saber accurately, cut through the crossbow bolts with the hot blade, and freed himself from the rock.

Nicolai gritted his teeth and staggered forward.

"Say it, old friend," his right hand holding the knife trembled slightly, pointing to Monty on the ground, his eyes filled with complex emotions:

"You want to have a barbecue..."

"Or raw?"

The Death Crow stared at him with an embarrassed expression: "That's not possible."

"No!" Nicolai walked up to him and interrupted him coldly.

Monty sighed and closed his eyes resignedly.

Nicolai slowly raised the knife.

At this moment.

"call"

The wind is coming!

A figure suddenly appeared behind the Faller!

Nicolai's expression changed, and he immediately turned back and brandished his knife.

"Whoa!"

Nicolai was shocked: his blade was empty.

There was no one behind him.

The figure disappeared.

how

But before the meteorite man could react, the figure appeared on his side again!

"boom!"

Fallen Striker's arm intersects with Sneak Raider's fist.

The sneak attack was not fast, but the accuracy and angle of the attack were far beyond Nicolai's imagination, especially the opponent's next punch.

"Boom!"

The attacker hit the wound on Nicolai's left arm hard!

"Uh" Nicolai gritted his teeth and groaned, his movements stagnant, and then the enemy punched him again, hitting the arrow wound on his right chest!

"Clang!"

The Fallen Star's arm shook, his saber dropped from his hand, and he knelt down on one knee.

But Nicolai no longer had the energy to care about his knife: he was breathing heavily, and with a mixture of shock and anger, he recognized the enemy in front of him.

He remembered his skill, his figure, his

Nicolai raised his head suddenly!

"you……"

At this moment, the Fallen Starman lost his composure like never before, with a ferocious face and a heart-breaking cry: "You!"

But in the face of such turbulent hatred, the other party responded very little and just slowly shook his head:

"You eat...with your right hand, right?"

His voice was hoarse and low, as if he was talking to himself.

Nicolai was slightly shocked.

He stared at the visitor, the resentment and hatred in his eyes almost overwhelming the whole world.

He roared angrily, as if he wanted to shout out his throat: "It's you"

But just the next moment, the enemy's knife hit his side of the jaw hard!

Boom!

Nicolai's angrily and unwilling shouts came to an abrupt end.

Under the heavy blow, the famous Fallen Star fell to the ground.

He lost consciousness.

Under the setting sun, the sneak attacker who knocked down Nikolai with one move slowly turned around and faced the Death Crow.

But at this moment, Monty looked at the visitor blankly, as if he had forgotten his pain.

"you?"

He just stared blankly at the uninvited guest as if he had been struck by lightning.

After a few seconds, Monty sighed and closed his eyes:

"It is you."

"When did you come?"

The visitor was silent, did not answer, and did not pay attention to the dying crow.

He just slowly raised his head and looked south.

"Principle number one." the sneak attacker said slowly.

Monty suddenly opened his eyes!

"What?"

The Dead Crow looked at him in surprise: "So, you have been following us since then?"

"And along the way...I didn't notice it?" He looked at the visitor in surprise.

The attacker didn't speak.

As if he shouldn't speak.

"I understand," Monty finally sighed and shook his head as if relieved:

"How could Thornhead and his Grand Duke's bodyguards catch up with me...it turned out to be you who caused it."

"You are not sure how to deal with me," the Death Crow said dejectedly:

"So you deliberately attracted him and waited for us to both lose."

Monty laughed mockingly, lowered his head in desolation, and stopped talking.

The attacker remained silent.

After a few seconds, the uninvited guest slowly spoke and repeated the first sentence:

"Principle number one?"

This time, there were some strange ups and downs in his voice.

Monty frowned: "What..."

The next second, the attacker suddenly struck!

"boom!"

He gave Monty a hard slap on the neck.

The Dead Crow didn't even have time to finish his words before he fell to the ground and passed out.

The sneak attacker didn't even look at the Fallen Starman and Nikolai who were lying on the ground, but slowly turned around and turned to the south.

Look to the end of the field of view.

The breeze blew and his figure disappeared into the air.
