Chapter 294 Worth winning over

"Stop him! Stop him quickly!"

Viscount Harrington's furious voice came.

A tall and burly figure appeared directly in front of Chen Lun.

Through the thick scarf and wide-brimmed hat, Chen Lun could only see a pair of cold, dark eyes. Immediately, the tall bodyguard raised his hand and punched him.

The air in the area in front of him seemed to be compressed, and a circle of steam spurted out from the man's elbow. With a hiss, the iron fist flew hard towards Chen Lun's face.

"Interesting."

Chen Lun smiled.

Bang! !

He gently raised one hand and easily caught the iron fist in his palm.

The air flow spread out in all directions, and the entire iron-clad room trembled for a moment.

"Ugh!"

When Viscount Harrington saw this scene, he had a horrified expression on his face, and he couldn't help but let out a strange scream in his throat.

Kaka!

Crunch——!

Chen Lun squeezed the bodyguard's fist hard and made several fingerprints. Then he pressed down and broke his entire forearm in reverse. Then, he raised his leg and kicked, hitting the bodyguard in the chest. The latter flew backwards and hit the wall hard, making a huge dent with a bang.

Chen Lun lowered his gaze and glanced at the severed arm that was torn off the bodyguard. Some thick black liquid like engine oil spurted out from the fracture, and countless precision gears and circuits were exposed to his sight.

‘It turns out that the steel doll is next to Viscount Harrington...but it’s too weak. ’

Chen Lun showed a trace of doubt on his face.

The next second, the other leaders of the Black Knife Brotherhood in the room came over with solemn expressions, and the "bodyguard" whose arm was torn off also broke free from the wall and returned to the battle.

Viscount Harrington took the opportunity to run towards the door.

Woo! !

The bodyguard punched again.

Its wide-brimmed hat fell off during the fight, revealing a shiny metal head with several large rivets embedded in its forehead and temples, making it extremely ferocious. The eyes are made of glass, dark and shiny, giving people a cold and terrifying feeling.

Chen Lun arrived first, carrying a silver cane, and hit the bodyguard's wrist with a bang, breaking it with force, and then threw several cards at the enemies of the Black Knife Brotherhood.

The sound of chissing was endless, and the flying cards and knives at this time were more powerful than before. These low-sequence extraordinary beings could not dodge at all, and were shot through the necks, waists and abdomens by the cards, and even had their hands and feet cut off directly.

For a time, howls and screams came one after another, and they all lost their fighting power and fell to the ground.

Bang! !

Chen Lun picked up the silver cane and stabbed it straight through the chest of the tall bodyguard. Black engine oil gushes out from the wound, and its struggling movements gradually became sluggish, like a rusty gear.

A few sparks shot out from his neck and shoulders, then he went stiff and still.

Chen Lun expressionlessly threw out a few cards again, one by one, killing the heavily injured members of the Black Knife Brotherhood on the ground.

When the kill prompts popped up one after another, he put his palm on the bodyguard.

【Extraordinary Object - Craftsman Puppet】

Item Description: The creations produced by [Class B Creatures - Hope Workshop] are mostly made of composite metals. They have great strength and amazing defense. They are a rare and good helper.

Chen Lun raised his eyebrows.

'It turns out that the name of the steel doll is the Craftsman Doll, and it is not the charlatan itself, but something created by the charlatan...'

He thought for a moment, put the lifeless craftsman in front of him into the blood poem ring, and then turned to chase after Viscount Harrington.

Since the viscount brought the craftsman with him as a bodyguard, he must know where the real opportunity, [B-level magic object-Hope Workshop] is.

'The basic attributes of this craftsman puppet are completely comparable to, or even surpassed by, a Sequence 9 transcendent. And with its body of steel, even if two or three [Butchers] besiege it, I'm afraid it won't be able to defeat it for a while...'

Chen Lun was thinking as he hurried on.

‘This can be considered a mistake, and I directly found an important clue...’

He walked back from the corridor and glanced in casually as he passed by the window. The restaurant area on the floor below was already in chaos. The gentlemen and ladies who came to attend the auction were running out gracelessly, crowding and pushing. .

Many people fell to the ground and were trampled by those behind them.

Screaming, screaming, howling in pain.

One after another.

The fire started, and the host had already disappeared. Some blue vests were putting out the fire, completely ignoring the women in cages. If no one cares about them, they may be burned alive or choked to death.

Chen Lun teleported and appeared in front of those blue vests.

They were startled at first, then looked up at the visitor, their expressions becoming awed.

"Boss Duhalu, yes...I'm sorry, we didn't know it would turn out like this. It was all that lunatic who set the fire on purpose..."

"Shut up!"

Chen Lun used [Extreme Beauty] to transform into a skinny man and shouted angrily.

"Don't worry about it here. Move the goods off the ship first and place them at the dock... These are our property!"

"Okay... okay, boss."

The blue vests immediately nodded in response and went to move the iron cage.

"But those guests are crowded in the passage, and we can't get out for the time being..."

A man in a blue vest hesitated.

At this time, several gunshots were heard, as well as continuous screams.

Chen Lun glanced behind him and saw that some gentlemen had completely disregarded their image in order to survive. They had a verbal conflict due to pushing and pulling out their guns and started shooting.

"Whoever dares to block the road will be shot directly."

Chen Lun said coldly.

"Yes, yes! We got it, boss!"

The men in blue vests were sweating coldly.

For some reason, they felt that the boss at this moment was more scary.

Chen Lun turned around and left, returned to the corridor, and then used "Air Walk" to fly directly out of the freighter and search across the sea for the whereabouts of Viscount Harrington on the shore.

Dozens and hundreds of Blue Sail Gang members noticed the chaos and had already gathered at the dock. In the gangway area, there were seven or eight gentlemen and ladies lying down. Most of them were killed by stray bullets, while a few survived with serious injuries, but they were also dying.

Chen Lun had no sympathy for these guys. He glanced at them and stopped paying attention.

He quickly spotted Viscount Harrington, but he frowned.

‘Dead? ’

Chen Lun saw the middle-aged man collapsed in the dock area, not far from the freighter. There was an inconspicuous dent on the back of his head, and blood and brain matter flowed out.

'To be killed by a stray bullet in the chaos...how ironic. ’

He shook his head and landed next to the body of Viscount Harrington.

The upper-class people who participated in the treasure hunt fled like refugees. The blue vests tried to maintain order, but were inexplicably shot. The surroundings were in chaos. No one noticed that the boss behind the treasure hunt was dead.

Chen Lun was about to use the glove on his left hand [Moonlight on Palm] to summon the soul of Viscount Harrington to ask about [Hope Workshop].

As a result, at this moment, three black shadows came out of the shadows and appeared in front of Chen Lun.

"Duharu, what happened?"

Two men and one woman appeared, and the leading man frowned and asked.

Chen Lun looked up at the three of them slowly, with a thin man's face, mist flashing in his eyes.

‘The high-level assassins of the Black Knife Brotherhood…the three Black Knives? ’

A polite smile appeared on his face.

"You came just in time."

"Huh?"

The expressions of the three black knife killers suddenly changed. They felt an unusual danger emanating from the man in front of them.

"He is not Duharu!"

"Retreat first..."

The three black knife killers were shocked, and their bodies stiffened as a reflex.

The "Duharu" in front of them appeared behind them at some point, almost close to the back of their heads, and calmly said two words:

"It's too late."

Peacock City Shelter.

The subdivision here is just a humble two-story apartment.

"Team leader! There is urgent information!"

An investigator strode to the desk holding a letter and handed it to a middle-aged man. There were several other men and women present, all deputy leaders of the shelter.

Before the investigators arrived, they seemed to be having a meeting, and their faces were solemn.

"Why are you so anxious?"

The man sitting on the cowhide office chair asked with a frown.

"It was the East District Port. A major accident occurred on the 'Sea Treasure Hunter'. Twelve upper-class dignitaries were killed and more than sixty dignitaries were injured... It seems that someone attacked the auction site, which led to this incident. ”

"What?!"

Team leader Yamos looked shocked and made a sound of surprise.

"What force did this?! How will the Black Knife Brothers react?"

"Team leader, I don't know which force is responsible for the action yet, but... the Black Knife Brotherhood has almost been wiped out..."

The investigator said in a dry voice.

"?!"

The team leader stood up immediately, including the other deputy team leaders.

They looked shocked and looked at each other.

The Black Knife Brotherhood has three black knife killers in Peacock City, all of whom are mid-level extraordinary people. This is the information recorded in the shelter... It is also because of this that the shelter has nothing to do with them and let these guys and Haring go. Viscount Dun conspired to do some human trafficking.

Even without the constraints of the Historical and Ritual Society, it would be difficult for the asylum to bring them to justice. Now, the news that the Black Knife Brotherhood is almost destroyed makes these group leaders and deputy group leaders excited.

As for the casualties of those high-ranking people, they did not care much, and even felt that these people died unjustly.

"Those bastards are finally dead, what a good news!"

A female deputy team leader laughed loudly.

"I have tolerated them for a long time! I am not in the mood to eat or sleep during this period!"

"What we need to worry about now is what is the purpose of this strange and extraordinary force that suddenly appeared... The Madman School has always remained neutral. Every time we ask for help, they are indifferent, so it is probably not them. As for the History and Ritual Association, it is It is even more impossible to take action, they are eager to see our jokes.”

Team leader Yamos said solemnly.

"Team leader, after investigation and interrogation, it seems that there were not a large number of strangers attacking the freighter when the incident occurred... Only traces of one intruder and the items left by this person were found at the scene."

The investigator said, pointing to the envelope in the team leader's hand.

Yamos and the other deputy team leaders' breathing was stagnant.

What does this mean?

One man provoked the Black Knife Brotherhood and crashed the auction? !

What a joke!

Yamos opened the envelope and saw a small pile of blood-stained playing cards inside. His expression suddenly froze, as if he thought of something.

He quickly stuffed the cards back into the envelope.

"Xuley, Malcolm, and Susan... the three of you will lead teams to confirm the situation, and then send people to notify the police station to wipe out the Lanfan Gang and resettle the abducted women."

Yamos ordered to the others.

The deputy team leaders agreed one after another, saluted and left in a hurry.

They all had joyful smiles on their faces, and the gloom that had enveloped them during this period was swept away. I just want to kill all the remnants of the Black Knife Brotherhood in Peacock City as soon as possible and clear them out.

Wait until only Yamos is left in the room.

He slowly sat on the chair, took out the playing cards from the envelope again, and looked at them carefully one by one.

"Could it be him? The wild transcendent named 'Jack Speight'..."

In fact, the shelter already knew the news on the second day after the circus arrived in Peacock City, but Yamos has never had contact with this "slightly famous" Mr. Jack.

Yamos took out a secret letter from the secret compartment under the cabinet and read it again.

This was sent by his immediate boss, the senior management of the Wangcheng Asylum Headquarters. The content was basically to ask him to keep an eye on a man named "Jack Spate" and to report truthfully what he had done during this period. .

Recently.

The "conservatives" and the "radicals" inside the shelter were quarreling fiercely, and this person was an important trigger.

Since Rudolf Teka's identity was exposed, Mona's experience has received sympathy from many conservative senior officials. Although she lost the support of "teacher", her personality, talent and ideas have gained the appreciation of more important people.

Meng Na has become a rising star within the asylum, and has even been transferred back to the Wangcheng headquarters.

With her recommendation, Jack's name gradually entered the attention of senior officials and appeared on the list of candidates for the Imperial Tribunal.

However, this list has not been implemented yet, due to the strong opposition from "radicals".

"If it is really him who did it, he is indeed a strong man worth winning over... I need to sort out this information and report it."

A smile appeared on Yamos's face. (End of chapter)
