Culture Conquers Foreign Worlds - Chapter 249
Harvey told him the news that Count Henrietta had been spotted, and told him to ride back in the same carriage as himself. Harvey himself is also a target. Count Henrietta is Harvey’s few partners and friends, so naturally he has to help.
Late at night, the guests of the dinner gradually dispersed, and the street outside the Norton Royal Music Hall became deserted. Although Norton is very prosperous, the street where Norton Royal Music Hall is located is not a commercial street. Now I don’t know if I can see it for more than ten or twenty minutes. A pedestrian. When he first came out, Harvey felt the strange atmosphere. As a spellcaster, the powerful and keen spirit could perceive the gaze hidden in the shadows, and there were many targeted and malicious gazes inside.
The two got on the carriage, and Count Henrietta still looked uneasy. The small space of the carriage gave him a sense of security. The groom just wanted to drive away, his neck was pierced by heavy objects without warning, and his body fell from the roof with a thump. This strange sound frightened Count Henrietta. The fat on his face trembled several times, and he didn’t. Dare to probe out to observe the situation.
Count Henrietta sighed in a bitter and helpless tone: “That fellow Fuen is so bold. I’m sorry, Harvey, for involving you too.”
Harvey, who was still thinking, pulled out his thoughts and laughed a little: “Just leave it to me to deal with it. For me, these are not troublesome, only some doubts.”
“doubt?”
“Yes, why did they choose the place of their hands outside? There was a good opportunity to shoot us just now but they didn’t do so at all, as if they wanted to trap us here.”
“Stuck here?”
“Probably to attract the attention of the guards, so their assassination target tonight may not be us, but someone who is still protected in the Norton Royal Concert Hall.” Harvey narrowed his eyes and analyzed calmly. After Princess Eleanor handed the envelope to herself, she always felt like she was involved in some conspiracy. Harvey looked out the window. In the shadow of the alley of the building, a man with his body hidden in a black robe was approaching towards the carriage.
At the same time, the alarmed guard trot out of the Norton Royal Music Hall and saw the corpse lying on the ground. Besides raising the steam rifle in his hand, he shot at the approaching black-robed man.
“Shoot! Protect your lord!”
“shot!”
“Don’t let him get close to the carriage!”
“Flap! Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop!”
This is the first time Harvey has heard the sound of a steam rifle shooting. It is much smaller than the sound of conventional firearms on Earth, and the decibel is not high, which is equivalent to the sound of ordinary people clapping hands.
“Fuck!”
The bullet ejected from the steam gun smashed the floor tiles of the street, and also hit the black-robed man who was approaching. The strange thing is that the black-robed man with multiple guns still approached unhurriedly, under the street lamp, the black-robed man The place where his body was hit gave out a strange green liquid, and the bullet embedded in his body was corroded and vaporized.
“Damn it! It’s a bloodline knight!”
“Don’t be afraid! Don’t give him a chance to fight back! Keep shooting!”
The guards who shot the gun showed fear on their faces and hurriedly replaced the bullets.
“It’s a bloodline knight!” Count Henrietta saw this scene through the car window with a solemn face. The knight has another meaning in this world, which is the name for those who have awakened the bloodline’s special ability.
“It looks pretty good.” Harvey said with interest. This is the second time Harvey has encountered a person who has awakened bloodline ability. The first time it was Lester in Elroy. He used a chain sword. For Harvey, who had just become a spellcaster, was an enemy who could not win head-on.
Compared to the caster, people who have awakened the bloodline ability are not uncommon, but most of the abilities are useless, a small number of them need to be trained to be used, and even fewer have good damage right after awakening. Power, the number of knights in this part is not much different from the number of spellcasters in the Kingdom of Barron.
A guard approached the carriage, trying to cover Harvey and they returned to the Norton Royal Music Hall.
The assassin with a weird green liquid flowing out of his body took out a steam pistol from his arms. The outer box is similar to the traditional black powder. The gun body has a circular device with an ultra-high pressure small steam boiler embedded inside. This high precision The guns can only be produced by the magic workshop belonging to the royal family.
“Snapped!”
What ejected from the muzzle was not a bullet, but a ball of green liquid. It hit the guard who hadn’t approached the carriage. The guard didn’t even have time to scream, and the liquid body and head were quickly corroded. The flesh turned into white liquid and flowed down, and the skull quickly became scorched black.
Harvey frowned and suppressed the urge to take a shot. Before he fully understood the enemy, rash shots would only reveal his hole cards.
“Damn! Call for support! Go and ring the alarm!”
“Shoot! Shoot to suppress him! Don’t let him get close to the carriage, Matos, you go and inform the guard of Iris!”
The quality of the guards is very good, and they can remain calm after seeing such a scene.
Count Henrietta took a deep breath and looked at Harvey, “Harvey, what are we going to do now!”
“Wait, the good show is about to start now. This assassin really doesn’t look like an assassin should be.” Harvey said in a hurry. The strange poison in front of him can’t cause any danger to Harvey. His venom can Corrosive to metals, but not much different from ordinary clear water in the presence of heavy silver water. The problem is that there are still many people hiding in the dark and not coming out, one side seems to be directed at him, and the other side belongs to the Knights of Iris.
Before confirming their abilities, Harvey tried his best not to rush into action.
Harvey can tease the enemy in such an urgent situation, and Count Henrietta can’t laugh or cry: “Harvey, what an assassin looks like in your eyes.”
“With a hood, hide your identity, and use Hidden Blade or some delicate weapons to solve the target.”
Count Henrietta rolled his eyes: “This kind of assassin can only solve ordinary people.”
······
On the other side, in the Norton Royal Music Hall, the young man with closed eyes opened his mouth and made a silent sound.
“Our great writer and the earl seem to be very relaxed… Make sure that the other party has no accomplices out, and you can’t let him get close to the carriage, Leon, kill him!”
The youth has the power to control the sound, can adjust the frequency of the sound to a certain limit, and can also collect information through the sound. Now the sound he makes is imitating the sound of deep-sea creatures, which is not heard by ordinary people’s ears. Special equipment is needed. The sound is huge. The coverage rate can perfectly cover all the urban areas of Norton.
A knight hidden in a residential building is holding a special steam gun. The gun is more than a few meters long. The whole body is made of metal. It is thick and solid. The muzzle is inscribed with a silent magic array. The tank equipment is even more exaggerated, and now the muzzle of the black hole is directly aimed at the poisonous man approaching the wagon~www.mtlnovel.com~Boom! “
His body was muffled, as if a bomb exploded beside him, engulfing countless smoke and dust. The upper body of the assassin with green venom on the street burst together with the floor. The huge kinetic energy shredded his body and sputtered the venom. Corroded the floor into large pits, including some minced meat.
While shooting, the members of Iris who were observing the situation with their voices suddenly changed their expressions: “Leon! Be careful!”
“Flop~”
Inside the residential building, the knight who used this exaggerated steam gun got up quickly when he heard the words, but it was too late.
In the shadow behind the knight, a sharp blade pierced through the knight’s neck abruptly, and the great power incidentally shattered the knight’s spine, causing him to die instantly.
The assassin who crawled out of the shadows saw the exaggerated steam spear on the ground and sneered: “I didn’t lose a decoy in vain, a good weapon.”
Kicked the corpse away, he lay on the ground and held the trigger, aiming at Harvey’s carriage.
