Chapter 58 The cold light under the moon

At night, the town is shrouded in flames of war.

Jena leaned against the cold wall and walked lightly in the dark alley on tiptoes. She kept getting closer based on the sounds coming from the street nearby.

One, two, three, four.

There are 4 people on the other side, and 2 people on the run from the bowhunting faction. They are turning to the north, and there is a heavy-footed man among the pursuers, who should be the leader.

Seeing the fire at the entrance of the alley getting brighter and brighter, Jenna held her breath and slowly pulled out the knife.

Suddenly, several mercenaries holding spears and halberds ran past. She shrank her eyes, and then jumped out.

The long knife drew an arc of light in the air, and two heads flew up directly, with blood like pillars.

Without stopping, he passed over the two corpses that had not fallen down and stabbed the tall figure directly in the back with the long knife.

Zhi——

The long knife cut through the steel armor and penetrated it, making the mercenary leader feel a cold feeling on his waist. He turned around angrily, and the halberd in his hand drew a violent arc.

But Jenna was quick to avoid it, and the sweep fell into the air.

"Is it you?"

Soon, the mercenary leader recognized the girl from before.

Jenna didn't answer nonsense. She knew that she didn't have much time. Once the other party's reinforcements came, she would have no choice but to escape like last time.

In silence, the long knife slashed at this person again.

But this time it was not as smooth as before. The mercenary captain may have an average serial level, but he was very experienced. He used the small injury on his arm to show off his weakness and punched Jina directly in the lower abdomen.

The severe pain from her abdomen caused blood to bleed from the corners of Jenna's mouth, and her internal organs burned like fire, but she still did not give up. Taking advantage of this gap, she chopped down the remaining mercenary on the side to prevent him from going out to report the news.

Then he grasped the long sword again, the magic power in his core flowed through his body and the blade, and a faint ice blue light emerged in his eyes.

"Haha, it seems I underestimated you before." The mercenary captain locked the muscles in his waist to prevent blood loss, with a ferocious look on his face.

‘Lingshuang.’

Jenna thought silently in her heart, white frost gradually covered the blade, and the wound on her body also felt a cool feeling. This was not healing, but a temporary stop to the bleeding wound.

She stepped heavily on the ground, and her body shot forward like an arrow. Just as the opponent was waiting and sweeping with his halberd, Jena avoided the waving halberd with an incredible move, and then the two sides passed each other.

"How...how is it possible?"

The mercenary leader knelt on the ground with a shocked look on his face, and then his eyes slowly lost their luster. Even to the end of his life, he did not understand why this girl grew up so fast after not seeing her for just a few days.

And Jena, who passed by the man's side, also put her long knife on the ground, panting heavily, her face was pale and bloodless. The action just now put a huge load on the body, and it can be said that it was a desperate move. Fortunately, this servant

The leader of the soldiers did not have any extraordinary trump cards, but he was still killed by him after all.

After resting for a few seconds, Jenna stood up after regaining her breath, picked up the long knife, and turned to look at the mercenary leader who was lying in a pool of blood. His upper and lower bodies had been separated, and white frost still remained on the wound on his waist.

.

As students of Emenas, they are taught by world-class teachers. They are well-informed and may not be particularly outstanding, but it can also be said that they have few weaknesses and are more or less prepared for some life-threatening measures.

to cope with critical situations.

These soft powers and underwater knowledge are difficult for many ordinary people to obtain.

"Rest in peace."

After condensing the blood on the knife into ice shards and throwing it down, Jenna put away the long knife and disappeared into the shadows at the corner of the street.

The first time she committed a murder, her dark brown cloak was dyed red with blood. Walking on the deserted street, she breathed the night air and felt calm in her heart.

There is no panic, nausea, etc. as outsiders say. Perhaps life itself likes fighting and killing.

She hopes that her hometown and this country can be normal and better.

But these people cannot be persuaded by reason, and besides, they have to pay the price for their cruel behavior.

Killing and intimidation have become the simplest and crudest methods.

The girl walked on the gradually darkening street, looking at the bright moon above her head.

In a nearby house, a pair of young eyes looked at the figure walking on the cold street.

Suddenly, a sound of footsteps gradually approached from behind.

"Search and catch the murderer who killed the leader." There were shouts, accompanied by subtle discussions.

"But that man killed the boss, can we beat him?"

"Oh, although he killed the leader, he must have been injured. If he was really not afraid of us, he would definitely kill us together. Hiding now only shows that he is not strong enough. If he doesn't kill this person now, wouldn't he?

Are you still waiting for him to recover before taking revenge?"

The captain made a rigorous analysis, and then eagerly gathered everyone, divided into teams of 30-40 people, blocked the streets, and searched one by one.

Although there are many streets and lanes in the town, there are only a few main exits. The group of people moved quickly towards the intersection.

Seeing this situation, Jena also quickly traveled through, preparing to break through the blockade.

The sound of a baby crying echoed across the house, followed by the mother's panicked soothing voice.

After hearing the sound, a group of mercenaries entered the small alley, looking around and searching for everything in sight.

Jenna leaned against the back of a pillar and slowly recovered.

It seems that I have to take action again, she thought to herself.

The group of mercenaries did not notice Jenna, and their attention was attracted by the crying baby. They walked to the room, knocked on the door and threatened the people inside to open it, saying that they needed to enter the house to search.

Frightened explanation sounds came from the house, followed by the sound of the door being broken, the sound of the man explaining, the sound of the woman crying, and the sounds of the mercenaries laughing and threatening.

A nimble figure turned back under the moon. Under the dark cloak, a cold light suddenly lit up, directly cutting open the two standing mercenaries.

Jenna rushed into the house, and before the people inside could react, another flash of sword light flashed through, directly cutting down several people.

"It's you." The squad leader was surprised to recognize the figure in the firelight. Even though his face was covered, the long knife and figure still reminded him of the girl he met in the village before.

Jenna did not answer, but her hands moved faster.

"No! I surrender, don't kill me, please—" Before he could finish his words, the sword flashed across his face. He clutched his throat and fell down. He struggled on the ground for a moment, and then stopped moving.

Only the blood-stained girl and the young couple holding their child were left in the house.

"This..." Looking at the fallen mercenary, the couple looked horrified and took a few steps back in fear.

Jenna threw out a wallet and said, "Get out of here quickly."

"Cocoa, where can we go after leaving here? It's like this everywhere now." The man said with a slight stutter.

Jenna took a deep breath and took the wallet back.

"I see."

Soon after, more sounds of swords clashing and panicked fleeing came from the streets under the moonlight.
