Chapter 344: A plan within a plan
However, Zhao Hai is not going to save Rui En now. He does not want to expose his strength too early. Judging from the appearance of these people, they want to use Rui En to threaten him. My son, Ryan, will be fine.
The attacks of those mercenaries are very fierce, and it can be seen that they often act together and cooperate well. The most important thing is that judging from the methods of these mercenaries, they seem to be real Mercenaries are not regular soldiers.
Regular soldiers and mercenaries are two different things. Soldiers usually fight head-on on the battlefield, so their fighting method is very special. They use the weapons in their hands to kill the enemy as quickly as possible. for the purpose.
But mercenaries are different. Mercenaries generally do not go to the battlefield, and the enemies they face may not all be human, so they will use all means to deal with the enemies, even if they cannot kill them. , it will also cause them injuries.
Zhao Hai saw these mercenaries struggling here and couldn't help but become a little anxious. He didn't want to struggle with these mercenaries for too long, so he and Meg immediately started attacking with magic.
This time Zhao Hai used a wind magic. Wind magic is fast and more powerful in such a small space. Meg also happens to be a wind magician. Naturally, He also used wind magic to attack. Shunyi had no way to go to Ryan at this time, so he naturally fought together.
At this time, Zhao Hai realized how powerful Shunyi was. Just as Xu Wanying said, Shunyi really deserves the title of Eight-Armed Demon. He was throwing hidden weapons out one by one, and he didn’t know all the weapons he had on him. There were so many hidden weapons, but they were thrown away endlessly, and all of his hidden weapons were poisoned, making it difficult for the mercenaries to deal with them.
With the help of Zhao Hai and Meg's magic, the mercenaries were gradually injured more and more. When the leader saw this situation, he immediately greeted: "Retreat." After that, he led the mercenaries The mercenary ran away.
In the blink of an eye, all the mercenaries in the restaurant were gone. Except for some broken tables and chairs and Shunyi's discarded hidden weapon, there was nothing else on the ground.
At this time, the waiter who was hiding outside the door also walked in tremblingly. He looked at the situation in the restaurant with a sad face. Shunyi was about to go to check on Ryan's condition, but Zhao Hai stopped him and said, "There's no need to go and see. He's been beaten." They were captured. Those guards are all dead. Come here, buddy, and clean up this place properly. Don’t worry, I will compensate you. By the way, remember to ask someone to bury those guards, and I'll pay you extra."
When the guy heard what Zhao Hai said, his face became better, and he immediately responded and started to clean up. , but Shunyi stopped him. He wanted to take back his hidden weapons first, otherwise he would hurt the store clerk.
This was the first time for Zhao Hai and the others to see Shunyi retrieving hidden weapons. They were all very curious. They saw Shunyi took out a few stones, put them on the ground and walked back and forth for a few times. Those hidden weapons They were all collected by him.
Zhao Hai understood at a glance that what Shunyi was holding must be something like a magnet, so he could put away those hidden weapons so quickly. Moreover, Zhao Hai also noticed that Shunyi was wearing a pair of leather gloves on his hands. The leather gloves were tightly attached to his skin and seemed to be very flexible.
Now he has the clear idea to withdraw. No wonder Shunyi's hidden weapons are poisonous, but he is not afraid of being hurt. It turns out to be because of these gloves.
However, Zhao Hai didn't ask any more questions. Once they saw that Shunyi had packed up, they got up and went back to the room. At the same time, they told the waiter to bring the dishes they ordered to the room, and gave the waiter a silver coin tip. Made that guy happy.
Zhao Hai first went to see the killed guards. Their injuries were all simple. They seemed to have shown no resistance. They were all fatally wounded with a knife. Moreover, they were all eating when they were killed.
Xu Wanying and Shunyi also looked at the situation at the scene. After a while, Shunyi said: "Master, they seemed to have been poisoned first and then killed."
Xu Wanying also clicked. He nodded and said: "The ones used to kill them were just ordinary daggers, nothing special."
Zhao Hai nodded, turned around and said, "Let's see if there is any poison in the food they eat. ”
Shunyi responded, looked at the food that had not been taken away, and shook his head after a while and said: "Master, there is no poison in the food. It should have been poisoned somewhere else. The poison in them is nothing." Gao Ming's poison is just a poison that can make people faint for a short time. Maybe it was because the unconscious period was too short that the mercenaries killed them."
Zhao Hai nodded and asked about Cai'er's situation, but Cai'er said those mercenaries. It was already out of her surveillance range, which was somewhat beyond Zhao Hai's expectation.
A few people returned to their rooms, Laura said solemnly: "Brother Hai, do you think this incident was done by Grand Duke Ryan?"
Zhao Hai nodded and said : "It must be true. We have no enmity with anyone else in the Rosen Empire. It must be Archduke Lane, but I really didn't expect that he would have such a method."< br>
Xu Wanying said in a deep voice: "Master, this is not surprising. Each of those grand dukes controls some mercenary groups. Although these mercenary groups usually perform tasks like ordinary mercenaries, as long as those As soon as someone gives the order, they will immediately go to fulfill the order. These people may be the mercenary group under Archduke Lane.”
Zhao Hai nodded, but at this time Meg said anxiously: "Master, should we go find Princess Ryan? Princess Ryan fell into the hands of those people. What if something happens?"
Zhao Hai nodded, released Fei Ying, handed the evil spirit staff to Fei Ying, and asked Fei Ying to go find Rui En in the surrounding area. The small town they were in was really not big, and could only house 50,000 people at most. From left to right, Feiying turned around and discovered that the mercenaries seemed to have left the city.
The flying eagle flew outside the city again. Zhao Hai asked the flying eagle to fly straight towards Carson City. He believed that the mercenaries would definitely bring Ryan and the others to Carson City, and they also Several people were injured and must not have been able to walk far.
As expected by Zhao Hai, the mercenaries seemed to have been prepared. They had prepared ten large vehicles and were now heading towards Carson City. Zhao Hai immediately led Laura and the others. After entering the space, they took back the evil spirit staff and sent it to the hotel. Then they appeared in front of the mercenaries, waiting for them there. Those mercenaries also knew that this time's idea was too tough to deal with, so they wanted to move forward quickly and find more helpers to deal with Zhao Hai and the others.
While they were on their way, the road ahead was suddenly blocked. What blocked them were two stone giants. These two giants, who were more than seven meters tall, stood on the road, which really gave people a great sense of oppression.
As soon as the mercenaries saw these two stone giants, they knew that Zhao Hai and the others were coming. The information they received said that Zhao Hai was a magician of the third line, so they stopped immediately. , several mercenaries brought Ryan and the others over.
The mercenaries who were leading the way to touch Laura's face looked at Zhao Hai who was standing not far behind the stone giant and said: "Wells, you'd better just surrender and be captured, otherwise don't blame me for being rude to them. , is this the princess of the Principality of Versailles? Are you also from the Principality of Versailles? If something goes wrong, it won’t be easy for you, right?”
Zhao Hai looked at the mercenary and said with a smile: “It seems that you have checked me out? Have you found out that I am in Versailles? I don’t have any relatives at all in the Principality of Er. I came to the Rosen Empire this time just to settle here. I didn’t plan to return to Versailles. The Principality of Versailles, even if you kill this princess, nothing will happen to me. The Principality of Versailles is just a small principality. It is impossible for him to reach out to the Rosen Empire. Are you threatening me with this princess? Hahahaha, that’s ridiculous.”
The leader was stunned for a moment, and then his expression changed. , he really didn’t expect that Zhao Hai would be so ruthless, completely disregarding Ryan’s life and death. The leader didn’t know whether what Zhao Hai said was true or false, whether he was deceiving them or telling the truth, so he immediately said: “Young Master Lie to me and surrender, otherwise, I will kill them now.”
Zhao Hai said calmly: "Kill her, I won't stop you. I have been annoyed by this princess these days. If you kill her, I will feel relaxed. However, I promised Grand Duke Versail to kill her." She was sent to Carson City. If you kill her, you will break my promise to Archduke Versailles. I will not forgive the person who broke my promise, so you will all die. I will not only let you die, I will also Want to find a black magician to turn you into advanced undead creatures? Wherever you leave your home, I want your whole family to be buried!”
Listening to Zhao Hai’s cold voice, the mercenaries couldn’t help but shudder. They did not doubt Zhao Hai’s words at all! , some people are like this. They have never been threatened by anything. If you dare to threaten them, they will fight to the death with you. Such people are the last thing they mercenaries want to encounter, because such people are better than them. These ruthless mercenaries are even more ruthless.
Those mercenaries, you look at me and I look at you, but they don’t know what to do. Let’s fight. We can’t beat Zhao Hai. Threatening with hostages won’t work. They are not doing it. When he knew what to do, Zhao Hai thought suddenly, and four vines, like poisonous snakes, came out from under the four mercenaries holding Rui En and the others, and impaled the four mercenaries to death on the ground in one go. Ryan and the others fell to the ground.
At this time, the mercenaries reacted, but the ground on which Ryan and the others were standing sank downwards, immediately wrapping Ryan and the others in, causing the mercenaries to jump away, and then the stone The people immediately launched an attack, and at the same time, Zhao Hai's magic rained down on the heads of the mercenaries. The mercenaries had no chance to resist and were immediately killed. At this time, in front of Zhao Hai, The ground fluctuated for a while, and Ryan and the four of them appeared on the ground.
Zhao Hai said that deliberately just now, just to make the mercenaries lose their minds. As soon as they lost their minds, Zhao Hai immediately launched an attack. First, Cai'er used vines to kill the mercenaries, and then immediately used earth magic to kill Rui. Well, they were transported to him from underground so that Ryan and the others wouldn't be hurt.
For these more than a hundred mercenaries, Zhao Hai didn't even bother to turn them into undead creatures. What these mercenaries did was too ruthless. In Zhao Hai's opinion, turning them into undead creatures would be an advantage for them. Just kill them to pieces.
After killing the mercenaries, Zhao Hai and the others did not care about the carts driven by the mercenaries. They immediately returned to the hotel and brought Ryan and the others to their room.
Ryan and the others, like the guards, were also poisoned and were in a coma. However, those people probably saw them as some important people, so they did not kill them, but put them to death. Stayed.
As soon as Zhao Hai and the others returned to the room, there was a knock on the door. Xu Wanying immediately grabbed his big ax and said: "Who?"
The voice of the waiter came from outside the door. Said: "Guests, we are here to deliver meals to you. The meals you ordered have been prepared."
Xu Wanying glanced at Zhao Hai, who nodded. Xu Wanying opened the door. The clerk in the store bowed to Xu Wanying, then walked in, followed by a group of people. Two of these people carried There was a table, a few with chairs, and a few pushing several dining carts with plates with lids on them.
As soon as these people entered the room, they immediately got busy. One look at their appearance, and you can tell that they have been trained. Those who set the table set the table, those who put the chairs put the chairs, and finally put all the tableware on the dinner plates. After placing it on the table, Zhao Hai withdrew. Zhao Hai asked Xu Wanying to give them a tip, and then they sat down.
Zhao Hai glanced at a few people and said with a smile: "Let's eat. It's really not easy to have a meal, with so many things happening."
Laura and the others all laughed. To be honest, they had expected such an attack, but they didn't expect that the enemy would be so ruthless this time and kill all the guards in one go.
It is precisely because of this that the mood of several people is a little heavy. Zhao Hai also saw this, so he said this. With these smiles, his mood became a lot more cheerful.
Zhao Haigang took a fork of the dish and put it in his mouth, and the space prompt sound came immediately: "Toxic substances have entered the host's body. The toxin content is light and can cause a person to faint temporarily. The host has immunity to this toxin due to long-term consumption of space water. , there is no need to drink space water to detoxify."
Zhao Hai was stunned for a moment, then his face changed, he raised his head and said: "Stop, everyone, please stop. Eat, these things are poisonous, it seems there is something wrong with this store.”
Laura and the others were stunned for a moment, they really didn’t expect that there was something wrong with this store, and several people hurriedly put down their knives and forks. , Laura looked at Zhao Hai puzzledly and said: "How come there is a problem with this store? Even if Grand Duke Ryan knew that we were going to rest in this city, there was no way he could Are we resting in that store? "What's going on?"
Zhao Hai smiled slightly and said: "It seems that we underestimated the strength of Grand Duke Lane. Haha, I really didn't expect that those servants The soldiers are actually here to attract our attention."
Xu Wanying nodded and said: "It seems so, those mercenaries are here to attract. Our attention made us think that there was nothing wrong with the people in the store, so that they could take action against us. Princess Ryan and the others might have been poisoned after drinking the water in the store. Although we checked the food at that time, we also checked I bought the kaya and wine, but no problem was found, but someone in the store replaced the kaya and wine in advance.”
