Chapter 164: Twists and turns on the way home (Part 2)
After Evan left, Arthur continued to finish his breakfast in a hurry.
“Then,” said Tristan, “when can we go back? I don’t want to spend a whole day in this little village.”
“Wait a minute.” Arthur was playing with a red dragon scale, “The evil star is still making trouble about yesterday’s events, and he doesn’t respond no matter how much he calls… Or maybe he is too tired and still Maybe even in sleep.”
“When will we wait?” Tristan said, “You heard it just now, there are assassins lurking outside the village to kill us. It is not suitable to stay here for a long time.”
“If they want to come, let them come. I’m going to ask them about something.” Arthur said.
“I’m a little worried about Lian Yin staying at home to guard…” Bedivere muttered.
“The mechanical girl’s mana is so powerful that you don’t need to worry about it.” Tristan said coldly.
“Enough. To go back to the imperial capital from such a remote village, let me think about it—-” Arthur thought, “Would you like to take the train?”
“Train? This village seems to have a station, but—” Tristan asked suspiciously, “Shouldn’t you be busy preparing for a duel with Duke Yones? Take the train back so leisurely and slowly. Home, is there really no problem?”
“I have other plans,” Arthur said.
In a blink of an eye, everyone was already in the box of the train. It’s not a big box, just enough for four people.
“Would it take about five hours to get to London? Wouldn’t it be noon when we got home?” Bedivere said.
Arthur looked out the window thoughtfully, “Don’t think too much. Travel is not just about reaching the destination. Enjoying the scenery along the way is also a kind of pleasure.”
“You’re so laid back.” Tristan said, “Have you figured out a way to deal with Yones’ contract creature? Can you guess what it is?”
“No, I can’t guess. But I’ve considered countermeasures against those guys with high speed.”
“Oh? What is it?”
“You’ll know when the time comes.” Arthur smiled mysteriously.
“Damn, you’re cheating!?” Tristan said angrily.
Arthur wanted to say something else, but it was pitch black all around.
There seemed to be some sort of dark cloud outside the window, blocking the light. Arthur quickly closed the window, those black things only came in a little, Bedivere accidentally inhaled, felt dizzy, and quickly covered his nose: “What’s the matter? Is it an assassin?”
“Everyone be careful.” Arthur drew his sword. Once the holy sword was grasped by Arthur, it emitted a faint golden light, illuminating the dark carriage.
“Be careful, guests, the Belen thieves are here.” The train’s guard ran over to remind him.
“The Thieves of Beren?”
“It’s always been on the train tracks lately, the robbery bandits. Their leaders are best at using this ecstasy smoke to fascinate the people on the train, and then take the passengers’ belongings.” Guards “You have a gas mask under your seat, please put it on first.”
Arthur and the others had already put on gas masks.
“Everyone should be… knights, right?” The guards looked at the armors on Arthur and the others, “We are the additional guards sent by the Railway Bureau to deal with the Belen thieves, but with the current situation From the perspective of the number of people, the combat power is still not enough. If it is convenient, can you help to defeat the thieves group together?”
“Yes,” Arthur said, “but we are not philanthropists, and we will not work in vain.”
“Is the bounty offered by the band of thieves enough to pay you?” a middle-aged man approached and asked.
“The Chief of the Guard?”
“You go to meet with the guards first, I’ll negotiate here,” said the chief of guards.
“Got it.”
After the guard hurried away, the chief guard said, “I’m Douglas, the train’s chief guard, just call me Doug. I’ve been watching you when you got on the train, Lord Arthur.”
“Oh, Arthur has become so famous!” Tristan said, “The previous duel was broadcast live across the country, and it was very effective.”
“I’ll talk about the polite words later, but now let’s talk about the main points.” Arthur said coldly.
“The point is, the **** bandits are coming. Last time they killed a lot of my brothers and got away. This time I want to use your strength to exterminate this group of vermin.” Doug said, “they Beren, the leader of , is the guy who uses this fascinated smoke. I want his head.”
“I’ll give it a try.” Arthur said, “Do you have any plans to kill them all?”
“This——” The chief of the guard came over to explain his plan to Arthur.
“Understood. Let’s all split up.” Arthur said, stepping out of the carriage, “Beddy, you are here to protect Tol’vir.”
“Oh.” The werewolf boy said.
“Looking at you taking the train leisurely, now you have encountered a bandit.” Tristan said.
“The result is the same, as long as the train doesn’t stop, the time to reach the destination will not change. It’s just a little more entertainment on the way.” Arthur didn’t care about the tunnel.
On the other end, the trunk of the car. The thieves took the passengers hostage while confronting the guards of the other carriage ahead.
“Get out of the way! Otherwise, I will kill all the hostages in this carriage!” said the leading bandit.
The guards slowly backed away while guarding, as if there was nothing they could do about the bandits.
“It’s such a cramped space, it’s impossible to save the hostages like this.” Tristan observed the movement on the other side from the side of the guard.
“Where’s Lord Arthur?” the guard asked.
“That’s a good question. How do I know?” Tristan shrugged.
He stepped forward and performed a magic trick on the door of the carriage.
“What are you doing?!”
“Since no one has a solution, I’ll do it with my own.” Tristan laughed mysteriously.
“Tell the people in your car to leave your belongings, and then you back another car!” the bandits shouted.
“What a beautiful thought, are you planning to take hostages and then loot the carriages one by one?” Tristan asked.
Among them, some passengers in the carriage of the guard side have fled to the carriage further forward, but the chief guard came out and shouted: “Please leave your belongings on the premise of protecting the hostages! Those lost because of the robbery The property will be compensated by the Railway Bureau!”
Although it was doubtful, but life was at stake, most of the passengers left their luggage and moved to the front carriage.
“Let’s go back to the next car too,” Tristan said. “Don’t worry, this is the last car they can occupy.”
“What do you mean?”
“You’ll understand in a moment,” Tristan said, moving toward the carriage ahead.
The bandits entered this carriage while taking hostages. When they were fully inside, Tristan gave a sly smile, put one hand on the ground, and activated a magic trick.
In the bandits’ carriages, dozens of magic traps have already been launched together due to Tristan’s induction. The ice cubes spread quickly in the carriage, not only blocking the front and rear doors of the carriage, but also blocking the windows.
“What?! Boy, what tricks are you playing?! Do you want us to kill all the hostages?! Unlock the magic!!”
“Idiot, how can you unlock it! This is an ice prison specially prepared for you, it will quickly take away your physical strength. Why don’t you kill the hostages and try? You can’t even move a finger now. No more!”
Tristan said a lot in a showy way. Before he could finish, the bandits trapped in the carriage had already been frozen solid. Of course even the hostages were frozen solid.
“You, you don’t even care about the hostages?!” the guard asked in surprise.
“It’s only temporarily frozen, they won’t die.” Tristan unlocked the magic of the Frozen Prison, “Go and tie up those guys!”
The guards went over together, first rescued (moved out) the hostages, and then began to bind the bandits one by one.
“Hehe, you want to be a bandit with just a little bit of effort?” Tristan laughed while walking over to join in the fun.
“Damn… ****!!” One of the strong bandits broke through the ice and punched the guards who were trying to tie him up, while raising his sword and slashing at Tristan beside him.
“Wow!” Tristan was frightened by this sudden change. He planned to make an ice sword to block, but it was too late! ——
“Noisy!” A luminous arrow shot down from the roof of the car, accurately hitting the bandit’s head. The bandit collapsed limply, pinning Tristan under him.
“Ugh! Uncle smells so bad! Get out of the way!!” Tristan struggled to push the bandit’s body away, while still shouting, “Arthur, what are you shooting for?! Killed too?!”
“Don’t be noisy! You are arguing to death, who doesn’t know where you are!” Arthur on the roof of the car said angrily.
At this time, Arthur had turned the small photon crossbow in his hand back into a photon dagger. This is actually a gadget made by Bedivere out of spare parts of the lightsaber for Arthur’s self-defense.
“Oh, is it still a dagger? I thought you made a special crossbow to reverse the disadvantage.” A man opposite said ~IndoMTL.com~ This guy in black leather armor is a thief The leader of the regiment, Belen. He looked at Arthur contemptuously again, “What happened to the long sword on your back, don’t you plan to use it?”
Arthur said coldly, “I don’t need another weapon, this dagger alone is enough to deal with you.”
That’s nice to say, but it doesn’t work, Arthur thought.
The holy sword is powerful, but in the current situation, if you swing it, the speed will not keep up.
Because, the opponent used a very strange attack method.
The guy’s hand melted into the darkness, and in this black fog, he seemed to be able to move instantly and freely.
What is the principle, not very clear. But this black fog is probably the exit of countless subspaces. And that guy’s hand can travel freely in these subspaces.
Even if Arthur, who uses his mind-eye technique so well, can instantly judge the hostility of the opponent and dodge, there is no way to completely avoid this sudden attack, which has no blind spots and is incredibly fast. Even if the consciousness can react, the body can’t react in time to avoid the attack!
Originally, it was still possible to run away from the moment when you sensed hostility. But this train became the worst battlefield. If you want to escape, there is not enough space to escape.
Arthur knew in his heart that if he didn’t hurry up, the train would be his grave.
