As Fujimaru Ritsuka headed north, there were also flying dragon attacks along the way, but at least they were not that frequent.
The previous raids every half hour were obviously a strategy set by Commander Vlad III, who used uninterrupted raids to tire out the enemy.
In fact, he succeeded. If he hadn't consciously resisted the idea of assisting people to incinerate, I'm afraid Fujimaru Ritsuka wouldn't have really...
Moreover, there was a spy named Robin Hood in our team at that time, so the attacks would naturally become more frequent.
Now, for normal travel, the frequency is not so exaggerated.
After bidding farewell to Maria and the other three people in the wilderness, everyone walked north for a few days and arrived at Nancy, another iconic city in France.
Northern France, one of the bustling metropolises.
However, there was no one guarding the city gate of Nancy, yes, there were no soldiers.
It's not necessary either.
Because flying dragons and sea demons can accept simple orders, if you order them not to enter the city, there will be no problem.
Probably for this reason, there is no point in setting up defenses in Nancy now.
Fujimaru Ritsuka was curious and asked everyone around him: "Is there no one to defend here...?"
"Maybe it's already a dead city."
Vlad III gave his opinion to the point.
Very consistent with conventional logical reasoning.
"Maybe it's an empty city plan? Deliberately luring us in?"
Yagi Xuezai narrowed his eyes.
After Robin Hood's betrayal, he is now a bit neurotic and thinks everything is a conspiracy.
"It's very simple. We just send a team of people in to check the situation."
Vlad III waved his hand and gave his suggestion in an understatement. Yagi Xuezai's opinion was exactly the same as his.
"No, what if it's a conspiracy..."
Fujimaru Ritsuka shook his head, wanting to deny this suggestion.
After all, she had been kidnapped before. Although she didn't understand the art of war, she now understood that if the troops were dispersed, it would be easy for them to be defeated individually.
Yagi Xuezai smiled: "It's okay. If the candidates sent are reasonable, there will be no problem. For example, I, rest assured. Now, if I run away with all my strength, I will definitely be able to escape."
This is not simply conceited.
The skills Okita Souji taught with all his strength, the special pace that can shorten the straight line distance almost instantly, and combined with the complex terrain of the city, it can be said that his flexibility can produce perfect results.
I practiced with Altria Alter before.
She couldn't catch up with her pace at all. It was a super high speed similar to teleportation.
Driving through alleys at this high speed, at least escaping on your own would be no problem.
"Yes, if you choose a reasonable candidate, there will be no problem."
Vlad III also agreed with this view.
In this situation, the most suitable person is of course Cursed Arm Hassan. Unfortunately, because his combat power is not very strong, he has been excluded from the quota for the singularity before.
After all, only 6 people can come to the singularity at a time. Excluding Yagi Yusei and Mashu who occupy a quota, there are only 5. The quota is really in short supply. At the beginning, when there were few Chaldeans, forget it.
Now that there are so many Chaldean Servants, it becomes difficult to get a battle quota to go to the singularity.
If you don't have particularly strong strength or have particularly powerful stunts, it will be difficult to be selected.
If you don't have this useful assassin, then you should take his place.
According to legend, the vampire Dracula has many abilities. For example, he can turn into mist or into an animal.
No matter which one it is, you can easily get rid of the enemy's pursuit.
The two made serious and strong suggestions and asked Fujimaru Ritsuka to assign them to explore the road.
Fujimaru Ritsuka couldn't resist them, so in the end he could only nod his head and said: "Be careful along the way."
Afterwards, I could only watch the two of them striding into the neighborhood of Nancy.
The streets of Nancy are empty.
The two silent men walked side by side on the deserted street, both muttering in their hearts. But after all, they were not very familiar with each other, and neither of them took the lead in speaking out their thoughts.
In a city with a solemn atmosphere like Lyon, there are only a few pedestrians on the street, and it will not be as empty as it is now. If this place has turned into a dead zone...
(Then, it’s not smelly enough. The smell of blood is not strong enough. Although there is killing here, it is not on a large scale.)
Vlad III thought in disgust. When he thought that his ability to distinguish the scale of killings through the smell of blood came from the twisted Dracula legend of later generations, he felt sick for a while.
(There are no traces of destruction, and there are still traces of life. There are no blood stains in the cracks on the ground, and there are no traces of fighting anywhere. In other words, were people taken somewhere?)
Yagi Sekssai pays attention to various details, especially the gaps in the dusty bluestone streets.
If the enemy goes on a killing spree here, well, let’s assume that he has no destructive power and the surrounding buildings are not damaged. Then, there must be blood stains, right?
There must be traces of blood flowing on the ground, right? Is it possible that the enemy is mysophobic and must clean the ground after killing someone?
Okay, even if you have to clean the floor, is it possible to do it: leave the dust and not clean it up, just clean up the blood stains, this kind of painful and inexplicable thing? I thought that only in comics would you see the need to clean up the victim?
The villain who only ran away after tidying up his socks.
If there really is such an enemy, Yagi Xuezai would like to see it.
In this way, the two people each calculated their own thoughts and walked carefully.
Everyone from Chaldea is here by bad luck.
Or rather...
What a coincidence?
Now is the time for the daily execution.
Sanson forced everyone to come to the square to visit. If they didn't come and were discovered by him, the absentee would be the next to be guillotined.
Today, in front of the guillotine, four or five people were lined up. Without exception, they were all men, wearing women's clothes and wearing strange and weird makeup on their faces.
No need to explain, these people disguised themselves as women just to escape from fighting Sanson...
This way, he can survive without having to worry about being told, "Why don't you fight as a man?" As long as he doesn't commit any crime, Sansong at least has a choice in the target of his execution!
"Ah... before today's execution, I would like to introduce a lady to you."
Sanson changed his mind.
Generally speaking, when these criminals are pushed to the guillotine, he will recite the crime and then shout for execution. After the execution, the gentleman covered in blood will politely exit. This kind of drama is performed every day, and everyone thought it was the same today.
Today, unexpectedly, he introduced someone first.
After he made a graceful gentlemanly courtesy, behind him, a lady slowly walked onto the execution platform.
She has beautiful long blue hair and a little baby fat on her cheeks. Judging from her age, she is only thirteen or fourteen years old, which is not enough to be called a "lady". A more appropriate title should be "girl".
She is wearing a white Japanese-style feather fabric, lined with Tsing Yi, and holds a beautiful black gold fan in her hand. She unfolds it to cover half of her face, giving people a sense of beauty as if she is holding a pipa and half covering her face.
As soon as she stood on the stage, the green-haired woman closed her eyes and bowed to the audience below the execution platform. It was obvious that these two people were very polite types.
"This is the new local executive given by the Dragon Witch, Lady Kiyohime."
Sansong's words were completely ignored by this woman. In the flash of lightning, Qing Ji suddenly opened her eyes, as if an American superhero had sensed the enemy's presence. She opened her eyes sharply and inhaled slightly from her nose.
The sound was heard, and his eyes were fixed on the crowd. Looking in the direction, he was staring at Yagi Xuezai.
(What's going on?! I'm being targeted?!)
A cold-blooded animal like a snake crawled across his back, and a lightning-like touch instantly spread from his back to his fingertips. Before he had time to think about it, Yagi Xuezai instantly felt the crisis.
