Thales frowned and looked at Barney, and then nodded after a long while.
Naki looked at Thales and then at the Pioneer Officer, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he had no words.
"Well, regarding your question just now," Thales coughed lightly in unspeakable embarrassment:
"The person who taught me swordsmanship was...Jinni Bakvi."
"The King's Lover."
At that moment, Barney's expression changed drastically!
This was caught in Taylor's eyes.
"Hey, isn't it the guy from the West City Police Department..." Naki blurted out as he patted his head, his eyes lit up.
But when he saw little Barney's face, he trembled suddenly and immediately changed his words:
"Ahem, cough, cough, oh, oh, it turns out he is a famous, talented and beautiful limited-time police officer!"
Naki suddenly became serious.
Looking at the expressions of the two of them, Thales felt doubtful in his heart.
them……
I saw Naji tugging at the non-existent collar and said seriously:
"Ah, um, it's nothing. Your Highness, I think, Vanguard Barney, what he just meant is... well, even the same set of swordsmanship has different styles, different understandings, and different habits. These are all very different.
It’s normal!”
Naki patted his chest grandly, ignoring Barney's increasingly ugly face, and said to himself:
"Even in the Northland military swordsmanship, we cannot rest on our laurels and be satisfied with a single style. We must be good at discovering the advantages and constantly introducing new ones. Even if sometimes the new styles are temporarily ineffective, they are still valuable. For example, Ms. Ji Ni's
The attempt to strengthen defense is very revealing... Hey, wait a moment, wait a moment! Brother, Quill, Barney Jr., Vanguard Barney, sir, listen to me..."
But before he could finish speaking, little Barney, who had an ugly expression, grabbed his ears and dragged him back to the battlefield.
"Stop talking nonsense and get to work!" Barney said angrily.
Thales was left alone, staring blankly at their backs.
Amidst the increasingly rare shouts of killing, Kuaisheng walked forward slowly and looked at the prisoners of the royal guard with complicated expressions.
"They are very powerful," Kuaisheng's words brought Thales back to reality:
"No worse than the White Blade Guards."
Thales took a deep breath and returned his thoughts to the important task at hand.
He looked at the Sword of Disaster, which was defeated and defeated, and nodded.
"Um."
"Have you thought about it?"
Quick Rope sighed:
"How to tell them?"
Thales shook his head.
He knew what Quick Rope was asking.
But he doesn't know the answer.
Kuaisheng was silent for a while and then laughed.
"real?"
Quick Rope sneered:
"I should have known this..."
"Why couldn't you hide just now and had to jump out on your own?"
Thales was silent for a moment.
He hummed softly and shook the key in his hand:
"Then your method is very clever? To distract the pursuers and then die in their hands?"
Kuaisheng was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't understand.
"die at……"
"Who said I was going to die?"
The next second, he raised his hands and looked at Thales in disbelief:
"Wait a minute, you don't think I really want to sacrifice myself... to protect you, do you?"
Thales only felt choked.
What?
"But you clearly look like you are ready to die and will fight to the end..."
Kuaisheng frowned:
"Have you read too many chivalry novels to regard death?"
Thales opened his mouth and looked at him blankly.
ah?
"Oh, what a big misunderstanding!"
Quick Rope understood something. He blinked and raised his lips in surprise: "I was winking at Dean and asking him to cooperate and knock me out!"
Thales was stunned.
A wink?
Cooperate?
"So..." he asked tentatively.
Kuaisheng pointed at Dean in the crowd in the distance, dumbfounded, with a look on his face that said, "You look stupid, don't you?":
"That's right, Dean and I were on the line, ready to put on a show...until you jumped out."
Thales looked at him blankly.
What did he say?
Thales stared blankly into the distance, and met Dean's eyes as he looked over with hatred and gritted teeth.
you.
you!
Dean looked fierce.
At that moment, Thales, who was still a little touched, understood and completely froze in place.
Kuaisheng shrugged, looking innocent.
Looking at the unconscious fast rope, the prince's face was a bit confused.
Oops.
like……
What unnecessary things did he do?
Thales looked away awkwardly, a faint sense of shame welling up in his heart.
He tried hard to put aside his embarrassment and anger, and thought seriously: Having said that, there is one more important thing.
I wonder what the weather will be like today...
But right now.
"Hey," Kuaisheng snorted lightly and turned around and said:
"Anyway, thank you."
"Although I won't die...but I won't be happy if it falls into the hands of the dark room."
Thales took a deep breath, unable to hide his embarrassment:
"Yeah……"
Yes, it seems to be a sunny day today...
Kuai Sheng sighed softly, his eyes flashed, and countless emotions surged through his eyes at once.
"Maybe we were wrong."
Thales raised his eyebrows slightly and came back to his senses:
"Um?"
I saw Kuaisheng folding his arms, looking at him quietly, and said softly: "I was thinking about King Nekaru or others...these mythical stories about disasters..."
"Maybe they're wrong."
Thales was stunned.
He turned back and stared blankly at the fast rope.
Kuaisheng looked at the fighting in front of him, shook his head and said:
"Last night, you did not hesitate to attack Dean, let alone me."
Thales's heart tightened.
"You worked so hard just to rescue even a stranger like Marina under the help of Douzi."
Quick Rope sighed deeply.
"What kind of cruel, murderous, crazy and evil existence..."
"Would you do such a thing?"
Thales was silent.
He suddenly remembered Longxiao City that night, Aixida and Giza that night.
Thinking back to the feeling of being no longer himself when he raised his threshold and knocked on the door uncontrollably.
I remember my calm and rational self when I lost control.
"But……"
But before he could finish his words, Quick Rope interrupted him again.
"If you say what is my biggest growth in these years, it's Thales."
Kuaisheng tapped his forehead, seeming to express emotion:
"That is to understand the world through your own eyes, not your ears."
Thales was silent.
"that's all?"
Quick Rope raised his eyebrows:
"that's all."
He raised the time crossbow in his hand and sighed softly.
"Fuck fairy tales."
"Fuck the disaster."
Quick Rope raised his arm and punched Thales hard in the chest!
"boom!"
Thales felt a tightness in his chest and bent over in pain.
"You are Thales and I am Quick Rope. I saved your life once and you also saved mine once."
Kuaisheng smiled stiffly and said:
"And now we're even."
Looking at the embarrassed Thales, he laughed out loud.
Thales, who had difficulty breathing, finally regained his breath.
He raised his head in pain, gritted his teeth as he looked at the fast rope.
That's a far cry!
I rescued you twice, once, and again just now. Two to one, you still owe me one more time!
Who taught this guy arithmetic?
Nicolai?
"And by the way," Kuaisheng's expression turned cold instantly. He put his arms around Thales' shoulders and whispered through gritted teeth:
"Stay away from her!"
"I was serious!"
Thales' face froze.
At this moment.
"Hey, young couple, have you finished talking about your sexy love words?"
Thales and Quick Rope were both startled, and subconsciously raised their heads.
The place had already quieted down, and among the mess on the ground, the seven guards prisoners seemed to have easily wiped out a dozen people from the Sword of Disaster.
And they were looking at Thales with curious eyes.
Thales and Quick Rope subconsciously let go of each other and both smiled.
The prisoners in the guard returned to normal and started cleaning the battlefield, each with their own expressions.
Cannon was still hiding in the corner shivering, talking to himself from time to time.
Belletti remained silent, just wiping his weapon silently with an indifferent expression.
But others are far less quiet.
"Don't move, Brie, otherwise I won't be able to bandage it for you... Hey, I said don't move, but I didn't touch it! I didn't touch it on purpose!" This is dressing the butt wound of the grinning Brie.
Naki, but the two of them looked like they were fighting fiercely.
"Come here, distribute supplies and weapons, or do you really want to fight in a pair of underwear?" Second Logistics Officer Nai rummaged through the corpses on the ground, and while dutifully throwing the weapons and equipment that fit and fit to his companions, he said bitterly.
:
"Their skills are not very good, but their equipment is pretty good... Hey, Tardin, why did you take advantage of it... Didn't you know that you have to turn it over to the public if you capture it?"
"marvelous!"
Taldin sat on the ground in a daze, grabbing an enemy's water bag, tearing dry food he found from nowhere in his mouth, and laughed crazily:
"We're out, we're out! No more fighting against the wall!"
As the person with the highest status, Pioneer Officer Barney kept crossing his arms and looking at Thales with a frown, as if thinking about what was going to happen next.
In this chaotic and strange atmosphere, Thales and Quick Rope looked at each other and saw the fear in each other's eyes.
This group of members of the vanguard started killing everyone just after they were released from prison. They seem to be as dangerous as they were back then...
Is it reliable?
Most importantly...what's next?
"What did you say when you let them out?"
Thales avoided Barney's sight, lowered his head, and quietly bit Quick Rope's ear.
"What else can I say?" Kuaisheng's face became anxious and he whispered:
"Of course it was the squire Wyatt Castle who asked them for help for the prince who was in danger..."
"By the way, that crazy laughing guy stood up on tiptoes and touched my head and said, 'Wow, Huaiya, you are so tall, how is your father?', so I could only say, 'Hey, hey, hey'..."
Thales didn't hear the second half of his sentence.
Because the next second, as if a cold wave suddenly hit, all the guards members in the field fell silent!
Cannon no longer trembled, but stared and opened his mouth. Taldin spit out the dry food in his mouth and touched the sword beside him.
Bree let out an uneasy growl, and Naki threw away the bandage in his hand.
Nai coldly distributed the last piece of leather armor to Belletti, who narrowed his eyes and exuded murderous intent.
Little Barney remained expressionless and gently picked up a torch on the ground.
They all stopped what they were doing and stood up in unison, with solemn eyes and facing one side.
It's stone steps.
Stone steps in the dark cell.
"Tap, step, step."
Heavy footsteps sounded slowly.
Every step is like stepping into people's hearts.
"Tap, step, step."
Finally, a long-lost figure appeared on the stairs from bottom to top.
Enter the range of firelight.
After seeing the person clearly, Thales and Kuaisheng looked at each other and took a deep breath.
The breathing of the former royal guards suddenly became rapid.
The person carrying the heavy object stood in front of the fire, facing everyone.
silence.
The visitor slowly turned his eyes, scanned the sloppy team in front of him, and spoke softly.
"Chief Vanguard Officer, Barney."
"Chief Punishment Officer, Belletti."
"Second Logistics Officer, Nai."
It was as if he was inspecting a weapon that was uniquely his.
Barney's face was tense, Belletti's expression was complicated, and Nay's expression was full of hostility.
"Cannon, Tardin, Bree...oh, and you, Idle Naki?"
The visitor named him one by one, his tone was calm, but for no reason there was a kind of pressure that made people take their breath away.
Thales swore that he heard clearly:
Naki swallowed subconsciously.
It was strange that no one among the prisoners in the guard spoke at this moment.
They just looked at the visitor nervously.
It's as if the animal has seen its natural enemy.
The visitor smiled and dropped the weight on his shoulders to the ground.
thump!
Thales and Quick Rope's pupils shrank one after another!
That's a corpse.
I saw the actual leader of Dante's sword, the lurking spy in the dark room, the mercenary Dean, lying on the ground covered in blood.
In the firelight, he opened his lifeless eyes, opened his breathless mouth and nose, and looked at the empty ceiling.
like a statue.
His face was full of surprise before death.
"You missed one."
The visitor grinned and shook his head, revealing the sin brand under his forehead.
He stretched out his hand and gestured to the corpse on the ground:
"You're welcome."
Soft tone.
Like the most homely greeting.
Everyone frowned.
"Then……"
The former watchman of the royal guard, the punishment knight Sak'el, showed a gentle smile, looking through the crowd, and pointed directly at Thales, who was in a state of confusion:
