This is obviously the fourth skill that has not been detected.
The blade of the sword broke through the air at an extremely fast speed. This attack relied on a quick word, making it difficult to dodge. Unfortunately, Arquette was surrounded when he made the move, and the angles he could choose were actually very limited.
, Bai Xiao had already seen through the direction, made a prediction in advance, and snake skin moved to avoid it.
However, the stabbing sword actually drew a circle in mid-air and stabbed Bai Xiao from behind, but the speed was not as fast as at the beginning.
This insidious sword did not change the situation of the battle. Even if Bai Xiao couldn't hear the sound of breaking through the air, he could sense it with his mental power. He had no time to dodge, so he raised his hand to summon a skeleton sword and shield hand, and blocked it behind him.
Bang! The iron shield of the skeleton sword and shield hand was pierced through, and the bones fell, and the health value dropped to the bottom, but luckily he did not die.
Arquette, who made his last ditch effort, had no mental strength to support the suction of the malice skill. He quickly dropped below 2 points and endured a full 8 seconds of theoretical stun duration! The actual stun effect lasted for 5.6 seconds, which is so long.
The time when he couldn't resist, even if his health was at full value, he couldn't bear it.
The summoned creatures attacked from all directions, and in just a few seconds, Arquette's health was reduced to less than 20 points. Then Bai Xiao controlled the summoned creatures to attack with precision, knocking down Arquette's health to less than 5 points.
In this case, even if Arquette wakes up, he will no longer be able to resist.
Two skeleton sword and shield hands, one on the left and one on the right, held Arquette's arms.
"I...we admit defeat!" Harold, the butler of the Tiethorn family on the side, stood up tremblingly and said.
"Mr. Harold, don't worry," Bai Xiao walked slowly in front of Arquette, "I'll ask you again, who is this person?"
Harold felt something was wrong, and his face quickly turned pale.
Bai Xiao smiled and stretched out his hand, touched Arquette's chin, and then slowly tore it open.
There were bursts of exclamations from the crowd of onlookers! Arquette's face was actually covered with a thin leather mask that could look real! Under the mask, there was a sinister face of a middle-aged man with deep eye sockets.
With sunken eyes and dull eyes, where is the youthful handsomeness of Baron Albert Standing before?
"Mr. Harold, tell me now, is this man the second-in-line heir to the Tiethorn family, Albert Standing?" Bai Xiao said leisurely.
Harold's face turned from white to green. However, he reacted quickly and said sternly: "Absolutely...absolutely not! This man, this man actually pretended to be my young master. It's so audacious... Mr. Viscount Dior, I beg you to
If he is handed over to the Iron Thorn family, we will definitely not let him go!"
Bai Xiao said lightly: "Then, how should we explain this silver thorn seal?" He walked up to Cecilia and shook open the two signed life and death contracts, "There is Albert on it.
Standing’s name, and the authentic thorns seal. Don’t tell me that the silver thorns seal, an important token of the Iron Thorn family, could be stolen so easily!”
Harold was sweating.
The silver thorn seal is an important proof of the Tieji family. Because northern Xinjiang is remote and lacks effective means of communication, the appearance of some heirs of nobles who have never traveled is not known to other nobles, and it is normal for them not to recognize them.
.
At this time, tokens are needed to prove identity.
Cecilia only believed in Arquette's identity as the heir to the Tiethorn family in Black Rock City after seeing Arquette possessing the silver thorn seal. Of course, the reason why the Tiethorn family gave the counterfeit Arquette this seal was because
Just to prove this to Shiraishi Castle.
Harold felt a dilemma.
If he said that the silver thorn seal was stolen by Arquette, it would mean that the Tieji family is incompetent, and the Tieji family's credibility will definitely be questioned. A noble who cannot even keep important family tokens will become the leader of all nobles.
Mouth jokes.
But if you don't say so, it will confirm the fact that Arquette colludes with the Tieji family, and also expose the Tieji family's wolf ambitions towards Baishi City. In this case, the Tieji family will not only be questioned, but will be discredited.
"Come here, take Harold away!" Bai Xiao waved his hand and said coldly, "The Tieji family must give me an explanation for this matter!"
Tim called to two city defense soldiers to escort Harold. He walked up to Bai Xiao and saluted, lowered his head and asked, "Sir, is that fake guy going to be taken into custody together and interrogated strictly?"
There was a complicated light in Arquette's eyes. He glanced at Harold and said loudly: "I won't say anything! If you have the ability, kill me!"
Now, Arquette can only hope that the Tiethorn family will save him, and of course he cannot betray the Tiethorn family. As the saying goes, if you confess, you will be jailed, but if you resist, you will be punished and go home for the New Year... Arquette also understands this truth
.
Bai Xiao shook his head: "This person is of no use, just kill him."
While speaking, Bai Xiao raised his hand and fired.
The moment the gun (magic hand crossbow) was pointed at his head, Arquette finally felt fear and said loudly: "No..."
Bang!
The bullet was shot out, leaving a bloody hole between Arquette's eyebrows, and his body fell softly.
Along with Arquette and Harold, there were two servants of the Tiethorn family. Bai Xiao ordered the two to ride back to Black Rock City to report the news, and then ordered Harold to be taken into custody. Arquette's body was hanged outside the city wall for public display.
.
As for Arquette's treasure chest, Bai Xiao would certainly not miss it and pocket it.
The people of White Rock City watched a good show and went back to their homes with satisfaction. They were still talking about it before leaving. After this battle, those people from Cecilia's territory finally saw the power of the lord.
Awesome, and the aborigines of White Rock City also recalled the fear of having their wallets controlled by "Baron Dior"...
City Lord's Mansion.
"Dio, why did you kill that fake swordsman?"
As soon as she sat down, Cecilia asked with some confusion, "He is an important witness. We should interrogate him and uncover all the Ironthorn family's conspiracy against White Rock City."
Bai Xiao smiled and said, "You are right."
"……Then?"
Seeing Cecilia's confused look, Bai Xiao smiled and explained: "You and I can guess what the Tiethorn family has against us in White Rock City. It's nothing more than a conspiracy against White Rock City.
Jurisdiction, if my lord is dead and has no heir, as the most powerful nobles in Northern Xinjiang, they are certainly qualified to ask for custody. As for you, you will definitely be expelled."
Cecilia nodded slightly. Her title itself was inherited from her husband's family. She has never had much contact with the upper class of the empire and the upper class of the empire. She even felt out of place. If she was competing for the authority to take charge of White Rock City, she would certainly not be able to compete with Iron Thorn.
Home.
"The poverty of White Rock City is completely incomparable to the wealth of Black Rock City. I really don't know what those nobles are thinking. Their greed is endless," Cecilia said.
Bai Xiao squinted and said, "Don't underestimate us. In fact, Baishi City has a lot of good things..."
At this point, suddenly Knight Tim knocked on the door and reported: "Two adults, I have brought Mr. Doctor here."
"Let him come in." Bai Xiao said with a smile.
The next second, Dr. Zombie's big head appeared and squeezed in from behind Tim.
"Dear boss, you are finally here." Dr. Zombie's opening remarks were neither original nor enthusiastic.
After a few months, Dr. Zombie's image has changed. A pair of tortoiseshell glasses are placed on the bridge of his nose, covering his protruding goldfish eyes. With his messy hair, he really has a serious atmosphere of a scientist, which is much better than before.
It doesn't look much like a human being.
"Hello, have you had a good vacation these past few months?" Bai Xiao patted the chair and motioned for Dr. Zombie to sit down, "Let's calculate how many mission quotas you owe me..."
Dr. Zombie stood up as soon as he sat down, oh no, he jumped up: "God of Light! Boss, Ms. Cecilia has been giving me orders in your name in the past few months to produce zombies."
I have successfully completed the three times a month task target for the potion!”
Cecilia nodded slightly: "When I lead my troops on an expedition, I will need this medicine to clear out the zombie swarms in unknown areas. In the past few months, Dr. Zombie has completed his mission very well."
Dr. Zombie burst into tears of gratitude: "Beautiful lady, your credit is as attractive as your figure!"
Bai Xiao was a little helpless, Cecilia was still too...serious. When she said this, Bai Xiao couldn't use any cunning methods to deal with Dr. Zombie, so as not to lower his own image. After all, the world of Kane's plane takes it very seriously.
The spirit of contract.
"Not bad, not bad. Doctor, you can go and enjoy your vacation." Bai Xiao waved his hand and said.
"Really?" Dr. Zombie was a little skeptical, "You won't lock me in a dark room behind my back?"
"Of course not..." Bai Xiaoxiao said hahaly, "I have a research manuscript left by a great scholar in the field of life sciences. I originally wanted to give it to you for research, but since you are about to take a vacation, I will find another one.
People are getting better."
Dr. Zombie tilted his big head and looked at Bai Xiao: "A great scholar in the field of life sciences? Who is it?"
"His name is Norton... Of course, you don't know him," Bai Xiao said with a shrug, "He is an alchemy master from another advanced plane world. His research on life science has touched the realm of God, and he can transform decay into
He pieced together the corpses and endowed them with a considerable degree of wisdom...It is no exaggeration to say that Mr. Norton is the greatest scholar I have ever seen!"
Dr. Zombie shouted: "Impossible! How can a guy who is playing with medieval alchemy walk in front of me? Boss, you must be lying, I won't believe it."
Bai Xiao nodded: "That's right, alchemy is all a trick to fool people. So in the few months you have been here, have you learned some alchemy formulas? I believe that such low-level things should be useful to you, a dignified doctor.
Not a problem.”
Dr. Zombie's originally blue face turned white for a while, and he argued forcefully: "I am a scientist, not a worker who makes potions! I don't need to learn those formulas. What I want to understand is the principle of alchemy. That is mine.
Pursue!"
Alchemy in the Western context of the spiritual world is not a simple science. It involves the most basic one, which is the transformation of psychic particles. This is the same as the kof plane where Dr. Zombie was born and the modern life technology of the Sound Nest Organization.
The production effects are similar, but the production process is very different.
In particular, the preparation of alchemical potions requires meticulous hands-on skills and rich experience summarization, which is very different from modern life science and technology, which has sophisticated instruments to do it for you.
In the past few months, Dr. Zombie has spent part of his energy on making zombie potions, but his main energy has been on exploring the mysteries of alchemy in the Kane plane. Unfortunately, exploring the principles of alchemy is an extremely arduous task.
The project, without the help of a team and relying solely on Dr. Zombie himself, would naturally make very little progress.
Bai Xiao had already been mentally prepared for this. He only needed to look at the territory console interface and the output of the research institute.
Among the output products, in addition to the zombie potion, there are still only the most basic life restoration potions, and there is not even an alchemy specialty from the Kane plane. This shows that Dr. Zombie has not learned any new formulas.
Although the reason is that Dr. Zombie himself does not bother to learn the specific formula, this does not prevent Bai Xiao from seizing this point as a sore foot to attack Dr. Zombie.
"What is the principle of alchemy? I think Mr. Norton should know it. He is a polymath who is close to the realm of God." Bai Xiao said.
The dead Norton never imagined that Bai Xiao would give him the identity of a scholar.
"Okay boss, I decided to give up my vacation and help you study the notes," Dr. Zombie suddenly changed his attitude, patted his chest and said, "How about it, I'm very touched? After I study the notes, you have to give me an update
A long vacation as compensation..."
"Such as leaving Kane's plane?"
"No, no, no," Dr. Zombie's big head shook continuously, "It's good here. The plane of Kane is the home of alchemy. I want to stay here, understand the mysteries of alchemy, and become a scholar.
The great erudite of ancient and modern times. The so-called realm of gods is nothing extraordinary. In the future, I will definitely be able to create super powerful clones that can rival or even surpass real people!"
Bai Xiao was a little worried, Dr. Zombie's words were really not a big deal.
In the plane world of King of Fighters, after the Orochi chapter is the Sound Nest chapter. The Sound Nest organization used the protagonist Kyo Kusanagi as a model to create many clones of Kyo Kusanagi. Among them, Kyo No. 1 and Kyo No. 2 were even as good as Kyo Kusanagi himself.
Kyo's fighting prowess, and one of the clones, Kyo, even believed that he was the real Kyo Kusanagi, and regarded the original Kyo as a clone.
"Could this guy... really be able to do this? No, it shouldn't be possible. The Sound Nest Organization is a giant organization with tens of thousands of scientific researchers working together, coupled with the leadership of genius scientific leaders.
Only then did we achieve that incredible achievement in life sciences. Here, Dr. Zombie is alone, without instruments or assistants, so he should not be able to do this..."
