In the eyes of the holy knights, the old cardinal's actions were too normal, but Xiao Zheng and Tina who were walking in front clearly felt a monstrous murderous intention coming from their backs!
That murderous wave came straight towards the two of them!
By whom
Isn't it the old cardinal who shouted loudly for Xiao Zheng
In an instant, Tina's delicate body tensed up, and her heart sank secretly. She was unable to resist, and even needed Xiao Zheng's support to walk. He glanced slightly sideways and glanced at Xiao Zheng, who had a resolute expression and his eyes were still calm. I can't tell whether I feel sour or satisfied.
Finally - still can't leave
Finally - are we still going to be buried here
Tina has no regrets at all. She cannot live in the same room, and if she can die in the same cave, it is the best destination for her.
But just as she was gently nestling on Xiao Zheng's shoulder, waiting peacefully for the end of her fate, Xiao Zheng's low and gentle voice suddenly came to her ears: "This is the second time you have bowed to fate tonight. Since when?" Have you become so vulnerable to begin with?”
Buzz!
The blade firmly held in his hand suddenly trembled. I saw Xiao Zheng twisting his waist, turning around, and when the old cardinal approached, he suddenly drew his sword and struck out!
boom!
In an instant, the sword flashed loudly and struck the old cardinal like thunder!
This sword was so fierce that it seemed as if thousands of sword lights gathered at the tip, trying to split the old cardinal into pieces!
However. Just when Xiao Zheng twisted his waist and turned around, the old cardinal, who felt extremely threatened, had already stopped moving forward, and even took a few steps back with his scalp numb. Drenched in sweat.
The sword missed, but Xiao Zheng had already hugged Tina and turned around slowly. He stared at the old cardinal with calm eyes and the utmost majesty: "Although I have been injured, it won't take much effort to kill you."
"Mr. Xiao, please don't get me wrong!" The old cardinal, whose back was soaked with sweat, quickly explained. He didn't know when he was holding an ordinary car key in his right hand. "I'm just worried that if you go out like this, it will cause unnecessary panic among pedestrians. There is a car key here, parked in the square. It will be more convenient for you to drive away."
How could Xiao Zheng believe his nonsense? Whether it was from his frightened eyes or Josephhan's expression of regret, he was sure that the murderous aura just now came from the old cardinal. The purpose is to take advantage of one's own unpreparedness and suddenly execute a killing move.
"Really?" Xiao Zheng glanced at the old cardinal coldly.
"It's absolutely true!" The old cardinal explained quickly.
He didn't dare to really anger Xiao Zheng. Even though he was sure that Xiao Zheng was injured. But as Xiao Zheng said, with his methods and terrifying strength, even if he was seriously injured, it would be easy to kill everyone present. Effortless. How could I, a mere ordinary strong man, be able to withstand his terrifying offensive
After some failed attempts, the old cardinal had completely given up the idea of keeping Xiao Zheng. All that can be done is to send this plague god away, and it is best not to have any contact with him until death!
"The key is not necessary. I have my own feet." Xiao Zheng said with cold eyes. Then, his expression suddenly turned sinister and ferocious. "If you dare to take the opportunity to catch up again. Don't blame me for killing!"
"Don't worry. Mr. Xiao, walk slowly." The old cardinal said with a forced smile.
Xiao Zheng glanced at everyone coldly, held Tina's waist again, turned around and walked towards the palace gate. But the moment he turned around, bright red blood oozed from his mouth and nose. Although it wasn't much, it was extremely terrifying.
Seeing the chaos, Tina was about to help him wipe it, but she heard Xiao Zheng's voice was low and weak: "Leave me alone. Get out of here."
At this moment, Xiao Zheng was exhausted mentally and physically. His heart was beating fast and slow, but the blood in his mouth and nose slowly dripped down, dripping on his collar and falling to the ground. If the ground had not been stained red with the blood of the Paladin, I am afraid that the old cardinal, who was as meticulous as dust, would have discovered him on the spot. If you want to leave by then, you will never be able to.
Joseph Han walked forward slowly, looking rather regretful and said: "Let him leave..."
Hearing this, the old cardinal sighed softly: "If the Holy See area could be equipped with guns, he would not be able to escape even if he had ten lives."
"With a gun?" John raised his eyebrows and said meaningfully. "Then tonight it will not be such a simple fight. It will be a barrage of artillery fire. By then, it is still unknown whether the palace can be preserved."
Guns are prohibited in the Holy See area. There are also very high-tech detection functions. If anyone with bad intentions comes in with a gun, the alarm will sound immediately.
The old cardinal nodded, pursed his lips and said, "But no matter what, although we have no ability to keep him, he has done us a big favor."
Hearing this, Joseph Han also had a slight smile on his face: "Yes, it's not him. Soros might really be planning how to oust me, the Pope, from the throne."
"So, he has become our benefactor." The old cardinal looked relaxed.
Once Soros died, he became the undisputed leader of the College of Cardinals. Coupled with the support of John, no one in the Holy See can shake his position.
As for Xiao Zheng - even if he mastered such a secret, it meant nothing to the old cardinal. Once he is firmly seated as the first cardinal in the College of Cardinals. He is sure enough to deal with any gossip.
"It's time to clean up the battlefield."
…
Xiao Zheng picked up the phone left in the square.
His body was already overwhelmed and he could only find a secluded corner to take shelter. Then he dialed a number in France.
"Hello, Master." A very gentle voice came from the other side of the phone. And it’s pure royal English.
"Lock my position and rush over as quickly as possible." Xiao Zheng said vaguely.
"Master, are you injured?" the gentle voice on the other side of the phone asked in surprise. It seems that Xiao Zheng was never expected to be so seriously injured.
"Nonsense-" Xiao Zheng had no energy left. "be quick."
After saying this, Xiao Zheng no longer had the energy to talk to the man on the other side of the phone. The arms hang limply. He turned his head and glanced at Tina: "I hope we can still survive."
"It must be possible-" Tina said in a low and equally weak voice.
In the cold wind, they hugged each other, but they didn't even have the strength to say one more word.
The reason why Xiao Zheng sought help from foreigners who flew over for two hours but did not dare to go to the hospital for help was because he and Tina were so seriously injured that the hospital would definitely investigate them strictly. Second, he knew better that although the Holy See did not dare to cause trouble at the moment. But once he is admitted to the hospital, the old cardinal will definitely touch him and give him a stabbing blow.
So for Xiao Zheng, going to the hospital is equivalent to throwing himself into a trap. It would be better to hide here and wait for rescue that you can absolutely trust.
As for life and death, he and Tina had to rely on their tenacious willpower to narrowly escape death countless times. It was only two hours. He believed that he could hold it, and he also believed that Tina could hold it.
Unknowingly, Xiao Zheng closed his eyes, and Tina's weak calls of 'Don't sleep', 'Don't sleep' came to his ears...
