War Lord

Chapter 771: Postponed execution day

There was an uproar in the audience seeing Richard kneeling down with blood spurting. All the members of the Blood Blade stood up and rushed toward the ring like chao water, all of them looking bad. But before reaching the ring, he suddenly saw Richard raising his hand, and then shouted violently: "What are you going to do? Do you want others to watch Lao Tzu's jokes?"

After speaking, Richard smiled and looked towards Zero, but his smile was somewhat reluctant.

Dididi——

Something dripped onto the ring and made a soft noise. At this time, someone noticed that there was a continuous blood line spreading on Zero's right hand, and a blood puddle dripped out of his foot. It turned out that he was also injured. Seeing this situation, the members of Bleeding Blade breathed a sigh of relief. I don't know who shouted "tie", and the calls for a draw came and went one after another.

It seemed that Richard was tied without losing, and there was light on their faces. But they forget that in the past ten years, no one has been able to force Richard to draw a tie. In fact, for Richard, there is no difference between a draw and a loss.

But for Zero, this is the result he needs. If he wins Richard, then he is too strong, and it is bound to arouse people's suspicion. But if he loses, Richard will not recognize his strength, and naturally he will not be interested in the deal he just proposed. Therefore, a tie is the best result at the moment. Of course, this situation was also deliberately created by him.

Richard hasn't hurt him yet, or the qualifications to make him suffer such obvious injuries. At least until he used the ability to kill wildly, Richard was not enough to hurt him. The injury on his right hand was caused by Zero himself. The method is not troublesome, just deliberately injuring the surface of the arm with the qi from the previous strike. It looks serious, but it's just a minor injury.

When the battle was over, several families were happy and a few worried. The few bets on Zero naturally get huge rewards, and those who bet on Raymond did not make a profit, but the battles in the fighting field are played in real time in the wine in the zìu district, so that the bets can be See the results the first time. So seeing a wonderful battle, people have nothing to say.

What's more, there was Richard personally coming off the field later, and being able to see the madman's battle, those who were behind Raymond didn't feel any shock.

Richard looked at the scar on his chest. It was about ten centimeters long, with its flesh and skin curled out, and blood beads were still glowing outside. But the wound was not deep, at least it didn't hurt the internal organs. If the wound goes down a bit and goes deeper, rationale, maybe Richard will explain it tonight. When he looked at Zero, he wondered whether this man deliberately shifted the wound, otherwise how could such a serious injury occur.

There is no time for him to deliberate. Now that the battle is over, the soldiers in charge of law enforcement naturally step forward. But for Zero who was able to tie with Richard, they gave enough respect. After hemostatically bandages Zero's arm, he is asked to leave. Before Zero and the soldier left the fighting field, he did not forget to wink at Richard. As for what this wink meant, naturally only Richard knew it.

When walking out of the fighting arena, the residents of the city who had heard the news had already swarmed around the fighting arena and surrounded it. Seeing zero coming out, these people cheered at his market, and the sound suddenly rose above the waves, and some people even shouted his name excitedly.

Of course, what they screamed would only be "Raphae".

Under this incomprehensible enthusiasm, Zero was taken onto an armored vehicle. There were four armed soldiers in the car, but even so, their expressions were still extremely nervous when they looked towards zero. Zero relaxes, and then he will be taken to Thebes Prison, everything is proceeding according to his plan. He closed his eyes and waited quietly for the reunion with Cinderella.

To his surprise, in the end, the armored vehicle did not go straight to the prison, or even the ground military base, but drove into the Ministry of City Defense. The vehicle stopped in a small square, and the soldiers in the vehicle kindly asked to stop. In nominal terms, Zero is already a prisoner, but he has not been shackled, but it has given him plenty of face. Under the guidance of several soldiers, Zero came to an office.

One of the soldiers said to him: "Mr. Raphael, please wait here first. We have just received notice that Colonel Klauber will come to see you in person. Oh, yes, he is Warden Hiller. Lieutenant!"

Ling frowned slightly and said, "I thought I would go directly to Thebes prison."

"It was originally according to the procedure, but tonight seems a bit special." The soldier shrugged and said, "Sorry, I don't know much. I'll talk to you in person after Colonel Klauber arrives."

There were some deviations in the plan. People were killed in battle, so they should be sent directly to Debes Prison. Now the soldiers took him to the city defense department, and there was another Colonel Clauber who wanted to see him. No matter how you look at it, this is not like a normal program. If this is the case, it can only illustrate two possibilities. One is what went wrong in Thebes prison itself; the second is that his identity may have been leaked.

But the second possibility is unlikely. After all, Raphael’s identity was provided by the Dark Brotherhood. At this juncture, the Brotherhood, which had become in conflict with Sauron, had no reason to hold him back in this matter.

As he closed his eyes and pondered the cause of the matter, Zero finally heard footsteps coming from outside. The sound of footsteps showed that there were several people. One of them had a steady pace and a small voice. He was obviously a famous player. Then the door of the office opened, and eight soldiers swarmed in, stood in two rows and saluted. Then a male officer in his thirties walked in, and as soon as he entered, he greeted Zero with a rather enthusiastic attitude.

He opened his hand and said loudly, "This must be Mr. Raphael. Mr. Raphael is now a celebrity. It's just a surprise that he got a tie with Richard the madman on the first day. what!"

Zero said perfunctorily: "It's just a fluke."

Colonel Klauber patted him affectionately on the shoulder and said, "Indeed, you don't know Richard's details. In general, you are lucky, Mr. Raphael. You ended the battle before Richard was really crazy. Otherwise, it's really hard to tell whether you can stand in front of me now."

"But no matter what, luck is also a kind of strength. And I like good luck people, I hope you can bring me good luck." Klauber smiled and said: "Originally in accordance with the normal procedures, now you have to pull Mr. Fei went to our Thebes prison as a guest. However, based on the performance of Mr. Raphael today, I, instead of the warden, can make a decision without authorization. Mr. Raphael can leave here directly after paying the ransom, and there is no need to go there. Our big prison turns around again, what do you think?"

Everyone has said so, can Zero still persist? It’s just that he doesn’t know what caused the Great Prison to change its procedures. Is it just because of the battle between him and Richard?

The following procedures were much simpler. Under the instructions of Klauber, the soldiers used their brains to transfer Raymond’s credits to the zero account, and then deducted 10,000 credits from the zero account as a ransom. After deducting the ransom, zero still has 290,000 credit points, which is a huge sum of money.

At the time of zero formalities, Klauber took the important things and said goodbye first. Then don't leave, and concentrate on him. He accidentally heard Klauber leave the office and seemed to be talking with someone outside.

The person who talked with the colonel seemed to be surprised by the arrival of Klauber. Although the two of them lowered their voices, they couldn't hide their eyes and ears.

I heard an unfamiliar voice say: "Colonel, why did you come by yourself?"

"It's not going to come. It just came from the city of Rome that Master Sauron is going to postpone the execution of that important prisoner at the bottom for a few days, so many arrangements have to be reconsidered."

"Defer execution? Why?"

"Where do little people like us know, and these things are not our turn to care, just take care of our own affairs. In short, the next few days will be very busy, and the city will be left to you. You have to see Keep those guys tight, don’t let them make any trouble at this critical moment. And tell Wallace to keep a low profile during this time and don’t provoke the lunatic or Black Wing. In short, after the execution, he thought Let him do whatever you want."

"Subordinates understand. Oh, the colonel should have seen that Raphael."

"I just saw it, what's the matter?"

"He can be tied with Richard, should we consider absorbing him, just like Wallace did?"

Klauber seemed to think about it for a while before he said: "This can be considered. After all, it is not a good trend to make Wallace dominate. However, everything will be discussed after this period of time."

"Yes, the subordinates know what to do."

Then footsteps sounded, and Colonel Klauber and his guard left. But the next moment, someone pushed in. The soldier who was going through the formalities for Zero saluted the man immediately and said, "Deputy Chief Vicki, good evening!"

This is a man in his forties, his posture has gone out of shape, his abdominal muscles are relaxed, and the bags under his eyes are black and blue. The body's energy breath is very weak. It is obviously a person who has been immersed in wine for many years and has been hollowed out by those things.

Vicki, the defense chief of Sin City, is also the largest official in the city. He squeezed out a smile, and after a few moments of greeting, he sent him back with the soldiers. After sending Zero away, Vitch sighed: "There are more and more tricky people like this. There used to be Richard, Wallace and Blackwing, but now there is another Raphael. In a few days it will be right again. On the day of the execution of the important criminal, how did I feel that the position of the chief of defense was about to be imprisoned?"

Zero did not hear Vikki's sigh, but like Vikki, he was a little bit lost. From what Klauber said, it seemed that something happened in Rome, which caused Sauron to postpone the execution. As a result, the Thebes prison had to be rearranged. During the important period of defense deployment, it is natural that outsiders are not allowed to enter at will, so the wishful thinking of Zero Night fell through.

If he missed tonight, he had to find a way to get into the Great Prison of Thebes again. What can I do? After thinking about it, it ended up on Richard and Gordon.

Judging from today's contact, the seemingly useless old man Gordon is obviously not as simple as the surface, and the lunatic Richard is unwilling to be lonely in his bones. More importantly, they are the snakes of the Sin City. If you want to make it happen, you have to find the two people to cooperate.

Back in the city, when he got out of the car, Ling noticed that the people in twos and threes hovering nearby were all members of Bleeding Blade. After the armored car left, several big men gathered around and said respectfully to the zero: "Mr. Raphael, our boss wants to see you. He is in the prancing horse now."

Seeing the puzzled expression on Ling's face, the accosted man said: "That's it, after you leave. Our boss sees that the military vehicle is not driving toward Thebes prison, but toward the Ministry of Defense. So the boss Guess, you will be back soon. He said, this is the first time in the past few years that it has been so painful. When you come back, you must buy you a drink."

"So that's the case, let's go." No matter if the iron is hot, he will talk about the cooperation tonight.

The prancing horse wine was brightly lit, and even though it was late at night, there was such a sensation in the evening that the drinkers were not drowsy. What's more, usually, these guys will not leave until the restricted time period of the next day, so every night, the zìu district is always very lively.

But what was different from before was that the Prancing Horse was full of people with the Blood Blade, and other people couldn't enter at all. The wine is basically reserved for the Blood Blade, and now there is only Gordon among the outsiders who can sit in the wine.

In the box where he was chatting with Zero, Richard was drinking silently while Gordon sat silently. The dull atmosphere in the box is like two worlds outside. After a long while, Richard said: "Who is he?"

"Who is not clear, but I can be sure that he is definitely not Rafi." Gordon yawned.

"Of course it won't be Rafay's kind of soft guy. If he really is Rafa, Raymond wouldn't lose so fast and so miserably!" Richard sneered.

Gordon said: "Then what do you decide to do? Report it to the military?"

"I'm not Wallace's loyal dog. Why should I please the military." Richard sneered: "It doesn't matter who he is to me. The important thing is that he can make my dull life become Wonderful, that's enough."

"Mad," Gordon sighed.

Richard glared at him and said, "What about you, you are not going to reveal something to Black Wing?"

"You are his father, maybe this bit of information can make the military look at Black Wing differently."

Gordon raised his head and said with a sneer: "If Black Wing wants to join the military, how can he get Wallace? Provincially, he is not interested in these things at all."

"Of course, he is most interested in Sauron?"

Gordon's face changed slightly and he didn't answer.

"I heard that an important criminal will be executed here in a few days. At that time, Sauron might show up, and your precious son might set fire in the city first."

"No matter what he wants to do, I support him." Gordon said silently.

Richard seemed to feel bored, and yawned: "Why is it so slow? Didn't it mean that the military vehicle drove to the Ministry of Urban Defense? Looking at it this way, our dear Mr. Rafael should have been released. . You know, old man, he wants me to rebel, what a funny guy."

"In my opinion, Richard the lunatic is not like a obedience, so rebellion is not a fuss, is it?" Zero pushed in and took Richard's last sentence.

Richard's eyes lit up and said, "You are the first person to call me a lunatic, and I don't want to beat you up for the time being."

"Doesn't you have to celebrate?" Zero was not polite, and directly provoked a bottle of beer to open, then the bottle and Richard collided, and took another swig.

Swallowing a sip of the foam, Richard wiped his mouth and grinned: "Now it's time to tell us something? Mr. Raphael, this is the cornerstone of cooperation. If you don't want to say it, it's okay. Let's pat our buttocks. ."

When Zero came to the wine, he was already thinking about it. He knew that to impress people like Richard, the lunatic, and cover up would be counterproductive, so he simply said: "As I told you in the ring before, I'm here to save people. That's right, the friend I want to save. , Is the prisoner Sauron will execute in public!"

Gordon let go of his hand, and the wine bottle almost fell to the ground. The Richard next to him caught it and glared at him and said, "You're so old, and it's worth making a fuss about such a thing."

Gordon replied with a look, then murmured back and forth with a wry smile: "Just such a thing? It doesn't seem like a trivial thing at all."

He looked at Zero again and said: "Now we are more and more curious about your identity. Who are you, dare to get in alone and save the person who was executed by Sauron?"

"I am zero. If you have heard the news that the Pope’s Hall was recently beaten by the invaders from the south, you should know me. Because I am the leader of the invaders. So now, can I trust you? ?" Ling looked at the two faintly.

Richard didn't seem to know what was happening outside, so he looked at Gordon for advice. Gordon's eyes widened and his mouth widened. After a while, he recovered, suddenly snatched the wine bottle from Richard's hand, and poured the remaining half bottle of wine into his stomach. The Richard next to him was dumbfounded and said: "Old man~lightnovelpub.net~ Do you want to drink like this?"

Gordon wiped the wine, shook his head and smiled: "If you know who he is, then you should know. After listening to what he said, we are actually hanging by a thread. If we are not willing to cooperate with you, I'm afraid you will kill us on the spot right now? The leader of the Poseidon Group, Master Zero?"

"Cinderella is very important to me, and I don't want Sauron to know the current trend. So if necessary, I will!" Zero nodded.

Richard frantically said, "Old man Gordon, if you don't explain to me what's going on, believe it or not, I will tear down your old bones!"

Gordon glanced at him and said, "Who told you to only know about fighting and drinking, and not caring about what happened in the outside world. Now I regret it, and I don't even know who is sitting in front of you."

Seeing that the blue veins appeared on Richard’s forehead, Gordon dispelled the idea of ​​continuing to tarnish his appetite. He drove the Poseidon regiment from Roaring Bay all the way to the fortress of Cannon, and then advanced north from the Bloody Road, smashing the Pope’s Hall. The flying dog jumped a rough idea. At this time, Richard knew who he was losing.
