"The door actually opened?"
Ren saw the bronze door slowly opening and guessed that it might be Naretta who opened the door.
However, this doesn't have much impact.
At the entrance to the third floor of the mausoleum, there are thirty-six gargoyles squatting on the short shrine. With these alchemical creatures guarding the door, no matter how many masters come, they can't force their way in.
Ren didn't think much, quietly went up the steps, touched the stone pillar near the entrance, and planned to check the situation.
The magic barrier on the third floor of the underground palace is like a one-way glass. It is dark when you look in from the outside, but it is extremely clear when you look out from the inside.
What Ren didn't expect was that there was a lot of noise outside.
At this moment, in the second-story palace outside the bronze door.
The well-equipped official knights of the Rosas family were driving a group of about two thousand civilian hunters towards the bronze door.
Looking at the tense look, it seems that he is not willing to do anything.
When Ren saw it, he immediately guessed what was going on.
A coldness flashed across his eyes, and he muttered: "Tsk, tsk, these guys are planning to play this trick."
... ..
The noise outside the door also became louder and louder.
The hunters who had survived in the maze on the first floor were driven down by the knights of the Rosas family before they could find a way out.
Originally they thought those guys were kind-hearted and wanted to take them out, but unexpectedly, they arrived at the second floor of the ruins deeper underground in a blink of an eye.
The hunters were not stupid either. When they saw the corpses of poisonous insects all over the ground and the strange bronze gate, they immediately understood something: the nobles were planning to let them go to the mine again and explore the unknown third place for them. layer.
This time, the hunters immediately stopped working.
The maze on the previous floor had caused them heavy casualties, nine out of ten, and now they encountered such a bronze door that they didn't know where it led to, and no one would agree to explore it.
Because this is simply giving away your life.
"Hey, hey, what do you mean? We are not going to continue exploring the ruins, we are going out! Why did you bring us here?"
"We are free hunters! Even if you are nobles, you have no right to force us to participate in any hunting operations in the wild!"
"Prince Harper, what you are doing is against the Hunting Convention! Aren't you afraid of causing backlash from other hunters..."
"..."
However, the responses to these indignant hunters were cold, sneering faces and the dark muzzles of their guns.
As for the Wilderness Pact
Since the Rosas family planned to use this "forced recruitment" method, they naturally had no intention of leaving anyone alive.
Prince Harper didn't have the patience to talk nonsense with a group of dead people, so he said: "Now the west of the Alcoron Mountains is the territory of my 'Glorious Kingdom'. And you are now in the territory of my Rosas family. What I say is law!"
But as soon as he said these words, some hunters immediately retorted: "Our 'Mountain Rat Group' is a hunting group of the Oma Empire, and we are not the citizens of your Glory Kingdom. What's more, this is a wilderness and is not protected by We are bound by aristocratic laws, why should we obey your conscription?!"
There was nothing wrong with what the hunter said.
Whether it was the former "Glory City" or any territory in the two empires, they paid a high fee to enter the city, which was equivalent to having the right to hunt in this land.
As free hunters, they have no obligation to obey the lord's call, even if the other party is a prince!
Upon hearing this, Prince Harper's face suddenly darkened and he sneered: "Why?"
"Bang"!
"Peng"!
Before he finished speaking, the man responded with two gunshots.
The civilian hunter's eyes widened and he fell directly into a pool of blood.
"That's all!"
Prince Harper didn't even take another look at the body, as if he had crushed an ant to death, it was insignificant.
He put away his musket, looked around at the hunters with a sneer, and asked loudly: "Now, does anyone still think that I don't have this right?"
"How dare you kill someone!"
"We are free hunters, why do you kill people?!"
"..."
A group of civilian hunters were very angry and wanted an explanation. Although the shot did not hit them, everyone saw how indifferent the prince of the Rosas family was to the lives of civilian hunters like them.
If you don't do something, the opponent's next shot may hit you.
But what they responded to was the sound of gun bolts being pulled in unison.
Click, click, click.
The noble knights around them instantly pointed their guns at the group of hunters in the center of the hall.
For a moment, the entire hall was as quiet as chatting.
This group of surviving civilian hunters were like sheep surrounded by a group of covetous wolves, weak and helpless.
There were only over 2,000 surviving hunters, but there were nearly 10,000 noble knights surrounding them in the hall.
Regardless of the number of people, equipment, or extraordinary rank, the official knights of the Rosas family far exceed the civilian hunters.
Moreover, the exit has been blocked. If a fight breaks out, these individual hunters have no chance of survival.
Having been "tricked" into hunting wilderness, these civilian hunters were filled with resentment.
Although those nobles were not well-intentioned, they also blamed themselves for being "greedy".
No one can blame.
They narrowly escaped death, but luckily they survived.
The survivors also found enough treasures in the maze. As long as they get out alive, they can live a prosperous life for the rest of their lives.
It can be considered a blessing among misfortunes.
But now, I never expected that I would be forced into a desperate situation again.
The noble knights, armed with guns, gradually forced them into the bronze gate.
... ..
On the other hand.
A few minutes ago, when the hunters in the maze on the first floor were being forced into the main hall by the knights to assemble, there was a temporary command post not far away.
A man and a woman were drinking tea leisurely, very leisurely.
The man has a bald rat face and a hideous scar on his face.
This person is Sid's A+ wanted criminal, the only surviving thief leader of the "Nine-Headed Owl Phantom Thieves", the fourth-level assassin [Sand Eagle] Yuk.
Of course, he is now an upright noble, the "Viscount Uker" of the Glory Kingdom.
And beside him, the alluring woman wearing a revealing gauze skirt was his niece, [Moon Beauty] Maritis.
Next to the two of them, there was a strong man with a whip, who would whip the man chained not far away from time to time.
This guy who was covered in whip marks and looked like he was dying was naturally Guy.
Being whipped became a daily routine, but no one could see any pain on his face.
"Do you still remember? The scar on my face is a gift from you. You killed my brother back then and hunted me for three days and three nights. Tsk, tsk, now you sometimes fall into my hands... "
"Guy, when you killed my father, did you think you would be like today?"
"..."
No matter how tortured and humiliated he was, Guy remained silent, as if he felt no pain or any humiliation.
This made the two phantom thieves, Youke and Maritis, unable to feel any pleasure in revenge.
But killing him like this felt too cheap for this guy.
At this moment, two gunshots "bang bang" resounded throughout the palace.
At this moment, Guy, who had not spoken a word until now, suddenly raised his head, his pupils focused for the first time.
Turning around, he saw the dissenting hunter being shot dead by Prince Harper, "killing a chicken to scare the monkeys."
Guy's strange expression was noticed by Maritis and Youke.
This charming woman's eyes lit up, as if she had thought of something.
She walked over in a graceful manner and said in a strange tone: "Oh, Mr. Guy, I almost forgot that you are the legendary [Sword of Justice]. I can't stand these bullying behaviors."
After a pause, she continued: "Oh, look, the poor and innocent hunter was shot dead. What should we, Mr. Guy, who represents justice, do?"
"..."
Guy raised his head and glanced at her, a cold look flashing across his expression.
He had indeed killed many such guys in the past.
No matter who you are, nobility, rich, gangster... as long as you do evil, you will be treated equally.
"Oops, our Mr. Guy is angry?"
Maritis saw the murderous look in Guy's eyes, and instead of being afraid, she laughed sarcastically.
She asked again and again: "Don't you seem to like to fight injustice? Don't you want to eradicate all evil in time? Where is the justice you insist on?"
Seeing the look on Guy's face gave her more satisfaction than cracking the whip.
She added: "I'm not afraid to tell you now. I came up with this plan. Not one of the more than two thousand hunters can survive, they will all die here. But... what can you do? What am I?"
At this time, the bald Youke on the side also interjected, with an evil smile in his eyes: "Oh... I'm sorry I just heard about it, but Mr. Guy, you actually have a daughter? Tsk, don't worry, wait until after this hunting. , she will definitely not survive. I will definitely arrange for someone to take good care of her... "
After hearing what the two said, Guy finally stopped being silent and spoke.
He asked calmly: "Do you know...why I tolerate your misbehavior all the way?"
Maritis became interested and asked provocatively: "Hey, why?"
Guy replied calmly: "Because I have been reflecting on an issue. Should people who make mistakes should have the opportunity to reform. I think it is excusable for you to seek revenge from me. Even if you want to kill I, I also think that you are not worthy of death..."
Hearing this, Maritis seemed to have heard the funniest joke in the world, with a look of crazy disdain on her face, and said sarcastically: "Hahahaha... Mr. Guy, you are still so upright! We If we want to kill you, do you think we don’t deserve to die?”
"No, you deserve to die. But not because you want to kill me, but because of them."
Guy shook his head and looked at the free hunters who were being forced into the bronze door.
First came to excavate this ruins,
The Rosas family told them that there was a maze and monsters in this underground palace.
Although there was a suspicion of deception, there was no coercion at all.
The hunters suffered heavy casualties, and they paid the price for their greed and carelessness.
But now, this is forcing people to die.
It's really "doing evil".
When he said this, the unwavering gleam in Guy's eyes became more and more solid, and he said again: "If you change your ways, even though you were guilty of sins in the past, I have no right to kill you. But. If you continue to do evil, you will not be tolerated..."
"You said you wanted to kill us because of the civilian hunters?"
Youke laughed loudly on the side, "Your reasons are still so ridiculous!!!"
Not to mention indirect deaths, even if he killed thousands of people with his own hands, there would be no psychological burden at all for the leader of the largest group of Phantom Thieves in Sid.
But he didn't arrive first. Will the other party want to kill him for this reason
He sneered and said: "Mr. Guy, when it comes to killing, you have killed tens of thousands of people, which is much more than us. Excuse me, do you deserve to die?"
"Everyone must pay for the mistakes they have made..."
Guy did not argue and said calmly: "The innocent people I have killed are naturally guilty...but I have never doubted my insistence on justice! The merits are not worth the merit, and the fault is not worth the merit. I deserve to die, you guys But he deserves to be killed!”
These words completely angered the two thief leaders.
Maritis walked up to Guy and continued to sarcastically say: "Hey... dare to ask Mr. Guy, how do you want to kill me? With just one mouth?"
She had originally tried to torture this guy with her mental strength, but she didn't expect that he would definitely not give her the slightest chance to use it because of his firm will.
Now that he finally saw Guy's mood swings, this charming beauty immediately took action.
Her slender fingers slid down Guy's body to three fingers below his belly button. She even made no secret of the beauty leaking out of her loose gauze skirt, as if she wanted Guy to see it clearly.
happy? Thinking too much.
Lust can make people happy, and it can also make people experience the most painful torture in the world!
She enjoyed the way the other party was so angry that he clearly wanted to kill him but couldn't kill her!
But Guy was completely unmoved. He looked at Maritis, who had a body that could be called a peerless beauty, without any waves in his eyes, as if he was seeing a pink skeleton.
At this moment, a sharp sword light suddenly burst out in his eyes, and a deep voice came out of his throat: "With the sword in my hand!"
At this moment, Guy, who was originally like a walking zombie, suddenly changed his aura.
That wisp of fire that seemed to be swaying in the wind and about to be extinguished at any time suddenly turned into a scorching sun!
The energy suddenly expanded, blowing sand and rocks all around, and a super-astonishing fighting spirit erupted.
And in the blink of an eye, behind him... the sword energy was like a waterfall!
Stripes of golden sword energy, like ten thousand golden scales, flow upstream in the Dou Qi waterfall.
This made the people around him instinctively feel a tremor originating from the depths of their souls when they looked at this majestic momentum. Like an ant looking up at an elephant, one can see a deep despair.
At this moment, Guy looked like a god, with hundreds of thousands of golden sword energy traveling around his body.
He slowly stood up.
The chain on his body was like paper, and it broke crisply under the attack of the sword energy.
... ..
Seeing this scene, Maritis and Youke's eyes widened with disbelief on their faces. They were forced to become unstable by the majestic fighting spirit and took a few steps back.
"How is that possible! You... aren't you a useless person..."
"There is no cure for the Silver Leaf Clan's 'Dead Poison'. You...how could you..."
No matter how the two of them didn't arrive first, the "waste" they thought was actually possessed of such strong fighting spirit.
I didn't even notice it at all before.
This fighting spirit was several times stronger than the "Sword of Justice Guy" they had seen in its most powerful period!
It was even stronger than any fifth-level powerhouse they had ever seen!
I'm afraid only the "Top Ten Legends" can possess such terrifying fighting spirit!
Moreover, the most terrifying thing is the "sword intent" that makes people tremble with fear just looking at it!
Youke was shocked and said: "What kind of 'sword intent' is this?!"
He had personally experienced Guy's [Pure Sword Intent] back then. Although it was very strong, it made people feel a murderous edge. That is the first swordsman in the world who can understand the first-class sword intention.
But compared with the golden light sword intent in front of him, he felt that it was completely lower than the realm!
As soon as this sword intention came out, Youke felt as if all the evil thoughts in his heart were killed. Before he could make a move, his soul seemed to be cut off in half.
Like a sewer rat who suddenly saw the sun, he felt an instinctive fear.
"How is it possible... Even when he was in his prime, he couldn't have forced me to do anything?"
The shock on Youke's face turned into despair. He found that he wanted to draw the knife, but his hands were trembling and he couldn't do it.
"This is... realm suppression!"
On the other hand, [Moon Beauty] Maritis’s “Lust Sequence” is inherently spiritual.
She is much more resistant to the suppression of this kind of artistic conception.
But she also understood instantly that this was not the suppression of extraordinary cultivation, but the suppression of artistic conception!
One stems from the suppression of soul and mental strength.
However, he and Uncle Youke were both at the fourth level, and even the "Top Ten Legends" would not suppress them to this level.
Oh my God, this guy.
What kind of terrifying "artistic conception" have you realized? !
