"Bang, bang." Two dull collisions sounded, and the two strong men were knocked to the ground instantly.
Before they even had time to react, they had lost the ability to resist.
"Woo, woo..." The two strong men whose mouths were covered tried to call for help, but unfortunately they were quickly dragged into a side alley.
A few seconds later, painful whimpering could be heard in the alley, and the faint sound of blood splattering could be heard.
"Sir, the only guests here tonight are Mr. and Mrs. Pollitt." The guard's voice was mechanical and dull, with no emotion at all.
They are like emotionless machines that only know how to execute orders.
"Hey, are you having such a good time? I was originally worried about accidentally hurting other people, but now it seems I don't have to worry about it." Lin Yi said with a hint of joking in his tone.
"Come ten people and guard the front and back doors for me to prevent anyone from escaping." The ten guards immediately took action and they quickly dispersed to the front and back doors of the castle.
"Ten more people will surround the castle. If anyone jumps out of the window and escapes, they will be killed."
"Everyone who is left will go in, no one will be left behind."
"Yes!" The remaining thirty guards pulled out the long swords at their waists, and a strong murderous aura instantly spread around the castle.
The birds that had been staying nearby took flight one after another, and even the chirping of insects stopped.
There was a dead silence around the entire castle, as if waiting for a bloody massacre.
"Come on, Eminem."
"Moo!" Eminem let out a deafening roar and rushed straight towards the castle.
Boom! A loud noise spread throughout half of the royal capital, and gravel flew everywhere.
A few gravels flew past Su Xiao's face. He walked towards the castle ahead with no expression on his face.
At this moment, the three-story castle had partially collapsed. A hole about five meters in diameter appeared at the gate on the first floor, and rubble and twisted corpses were scattered around.
Boom, boom, boom... the situation in the castle can only be described as shaking.
One by one, the Royal Guards rushed into the castle. Their eyes were cold and they would kill anyone they saw, regardless of whether they were men, women, old or young.
Su Xiao walked into the castle with a knife. The ground under her feet was soaked in blood, and the air was filled with the pungent smell of blood.
The castle has become a hell on earth. There are corpses cut into pieces everywhere. It is too horrible to look at. The strength of these guards is not weak at all.
According to the intelligence that Lin Yi found out, these soldiers of the Imperial Guard were probably much stronger than the current soldiers of the Black Shadow Corps.
These guards have been rigorously trained and screened to become deadly weapons.
If the contractors who entered this third-level world were to randomly grab fifty people and fight against the fifty guards here, the contractors might not really be able to defeat these specially cultivated killing machines.
Bang! A sound of glass breaking came from above Lin Yi's head. Lin Yi looked up and found a young man in a dress.
After landing, the man originally wanted to escape from this place, but following the moonlight, he saw several guards staring at him not far away.
The man's face instantly turned as white as paper, and fear quickly spread in his eyes.
"No, I just came out to earn some pocket money. There is no need to kill them all." The man shouted desperately, his voice full of panic and pleading.
It's a pity that the killing machines of the Praetorian Guards will not obey his orders at all.
In the man's horrified eyes, several soldiers of the Imperial Guard quickly surrounded the man with long swords.
The next second, screams rang in Lin Yi's ears, shrill and desperate.
Originally, Lin Yi wanted to take a look, but Hicks blocked Lin Yi's view to prevent Lin Yi from seeing this bloody scene.
When Lin Yi pulled Hicks away, the man who had jumped off the building had turned into a ball of meat.
A minute later, the castle was eerily quiet.
Lin Yi slowly walked into the castle along the big hole made by Amu.
The first and second floors of the entire castle were covered with corpses, and blood flowed across them, dyeing the wool carpet on the floor of the castle dark red.
Arriving on the third floor, Lin Yi found Su Xiao sitting quietly on an exquisite wooden chair on the third floor of the castle.
A praetorian guard came towards him carrying a man and a woman.
"Guards, are you crazy? I am Ian Pollitt, and I want to see His Majesty the King!"
"Dean Lin! Please speak to me quickly, these guards are crazy!" Ian Pollitt turned to Lin Yi for help again, hoping that he would intercede for him.
But Lin Yi just looked at him quietly, without the slightest pity in his eyes.
Ian Pollitt scanned the surroundings with a panicked look, trying to find a glimmer of life.
Soon, he saw Su Xiao sitting on a wooden chair.
At this moment, his body began to limp, and his originally flushed face quickly turned gray.
He knew that he was in a desperate situation and there was no possibility of escape.
"Iron... Iron Hand, I just want to know one thing. Which thing did I do that went against His Majesty's wishes? Why? That old weirdo... No, that's not right. Why did Your Majesty..."
Ian Pollitt's breathing was rapid. The moment he saw Lidya Su, he knew that he would not survive today.
"Don't you understand? You're on the wrong team." Hearing Lin Yi's answer, Ian Pollitt's face turned pale.
He originally thought that no one knew about his acceptance of the eldest prince's recruitment, but to his surprise, the old king found out.
In this game of thrones, one wrong move leads to another wrong move.
His poor choices ultimately led to his demise.
The boundary line tightened, and the heads of Ian Pollitt and his wife flew up.
Blood spurted out and stained the ground red.
Although Su Xiao brought the imperial guards, these imperial guards could not take action against these officials, which involved many political issues.
Su Xiao, who had the permission of the old king, could kill these people, but they could not.
"Have you finished killing?" Su Xiao shook off the blood on the Dragon-Slaying Blade with a clean and neat movement.
The Imperial Guard nodded, indicating that there was not a single person left alive in the entire castle.
"Let's go. There's no need to keep this place. Let's burn it down so that we don't have to clean up these corpses later." Su Xiao's tone was very calm, as if the killing just now was just a trivial matter.
After Lin Yi and Su Xiao left the castle, a guard behind them threw a torch on the ground.
The torch quickly ignited the cashmere rug in the room, and the fire spread quickly.
It didn't take long for the entire castle to be engulfed in flames.
As soon as the two people left the castle, Lin Yi found that many people had gathered around the castle.
"What's going on?"
"I don't know, but something happened to Mr. Warner's property. The security forces will arrive soon. Where did these guys come from? They are crazy enough to kill people in public in the capital."
"The security forces are coming."
The sound of neat footsteps came from hundreds of soldiers in armor. They were the troops responsible for maintaining law and order in the royal capital.
Something happened that shocked the onlookers. They originally thought they would enjoy a good show of the security forces surrounding and killing the "evil party", but the situation did not develop as they expected.
Hundreds of security forces made way for a passage, and they all knelt down on one knee. Su Xiao and others left the castle openly and quickly disappeared into the night.
News of Councilor Ian's death will soon spread, so he must solve his next target as soon as possible.
Just as Councilor Ian Pollitt was executed, Lin Yi successfully activated a side mission.
[Side mission: Purge]
Difficulty level: Lv.25
Mission introduction: Assist the Iron Hands to eliminate the Kingdom Councilor (Ian Pollitt), the Inspector (Warner Vaughn), and the High Priest of the Temple (Zabo) within three hours. , Chief Justice (Hervé Anthony).
Task duration: 3 hours.
Mission reward: 100,000 paradise coins.
Mission penalty: None.
…
Su Xiao quickened his pace, and the fifty guards behind him immediately followed. The agility attributes of these soldiers were not low, but if Su Xiao moved forward at full speed, these people would not be able to keep up.
Originally, Hicks was planning to carry Lin Yi on his back, but what Hicks didn't expect was that Lin Yi turned out to be the most relaxed one among the group.
Hicks himself seemed a little reluctant to keep up with Su Xiao, but not only did Lin Yi not fall behind, he was able to enjoy the surrounding scenery leisurely.
Inside a luxurious two-story residence.
A sudden knock on the door broke the tranquility and disturbed the owner's dream.
The owner of the house sat up with a cry, his eyes full of anger.
After the sound of hurried footsteps, Inspector Warner Vaughan slowly opened the door to his room.
"Lot, if what you say next is not important, I will throw you into Bakaka's cage immediately."
Warner Vonn is a short, fat, middle-aged man. He is in charge of the construction power of the entire royal capital. This is a relatively powerful position. Because of this, he has quite a temper.
As for the "Bakaka" he mentioned, it was a large vicious dog that he carefully raised.
Lot stood at the door and swallowed his saliva.
"Sir, did you hear the loud noise before?"
"Huh? What's going on?"
"That's iron..."
"Zheng!" The long knife made a crisp sound, and a line of blood instantly appeared on Lot's face. Then, Lot fell straight to the side.
Warm blood splashed on Inspector Warner Vorn's face like a fountain, and he subconsciously closed his eyes and raised his head.
When he opened his eyes again, he found a pair of cold eyes staring closely at him.
"Hello, Warner Vaughn."
As soon as he finished speaking, the dragon-slaying sword flashed like lightning, and Warner Vorn's head flew up instantly, so neatly that there was no sloppiness at all.
Warner Vorn's mouth opened slightly, his expression showing both surprise and deep regret.
"kill."
As soon as Su Xiao finished speaking, the fifty killing machines rushed into the room, and then, several short and shrill screams came from the room.
As for Lin Yi, he stood quietly.
In this side mission, he only needs to be responsible for watching the show from the sidelines.
Su Xiao has the authority to kill, but he does not.
In 56 seconds, Warner Vonn and his family were silenced.
Ten minutes later, in the courtyard of a small manor.
This is the residence of the third target, the high priest of the temple, Zabo. This guy has received some rumors and is preparing to escape from the royal capital.
On the lawn in the courtyard, Su Xiao gently shook the Dragon Slaying Flash in his hand. Around him, dozens of corpses were lying in random directions.
A couple carrying packages hid in the distance, looking at Lidya Su with horror in their eyes.
"I, I, I am a messenger sent by God. Even if His Majesty wants to kill me, I still need God's approval!" High Priest Zabo shouted at the top of his lungs.
It is obvious that the high priest Mr. Zabo is an out-and-out magician.
Even at such a critical moment, he was still fantasizing about God's approval, trying to escape the fate of death.
Su Xiao had no expression on her face and slowly walked towards the high priest Zabo.
Zabo may have been too frightened at this time. He actually grabbed the lady next to him in panic and blocked her in front of him.
The beautiful woman was stunned. Just a few minutes ago, she was determined to die with her husband.
In her opinion, her husband was a pious messenger of God and someone worthy of being entrusted with her life.
She even imagined that even if they were to die today, they would go to the kingdom of God together.
However, this small tug was like a bolt from the blue, instantly shattering all the beautiful woman's illusions.
"Iron Hand, I can give you anything you want, including money and women."
High Priest Zabo threw the package behind him towards Su Xiao. With a bang, gems and gold coins were scattered on the ground.
Click, click... Su Xiao stepped on the gems and gold coins.
"I have a daughter. Her name is Elena. She is already 13 years old. If you let me go, I will give her to you."
High Priest Zabo's will to survive is extremely tenacious, so tenacious that he has lost all bottom lines.
"Hahaha, what on earth am I talking about? God, are you punishing me? Punishing me for the things I have done that are worse than a pig or a dog." High Priest Zabo suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, his laughter full of despair and despair. crazy.
The once high priest of the temple has now become a miserable wretch.
Suddenly, veins popped out on the face of High Priest Zabo.
"Bay Herbert, you will get your comeuppance!!"
High Priest Zabo roared the king's name, drew a long dagger from his belt, and embraced his wife.
There was just a swipe sound, and the dagger instantly penetrated the beautiful woman's chest, and at the same time, it penetrated the high priest Zabo's own body. The dagger was highly poisonous.
"Angia, forgive me."
The high priest whispered his wife's name.
"Um,"
The beautiful woman nestled in the arms of the high priest.
"Even if I said such ugly words, you still forgive me. You are the gift given to me by God." The high priest's face gradually turned blue, the poison had begun to take effect, and his body was trembling slightly.
"How could it be? You're just too scared. We don't have a daughter at all." The beautiful woman's voice became weaker and weaker, and her body gradually became limp.
"Bay Herbert, and you, Iron Hand, wait! I look forward to your misery in hell. The angry undead gate will eat you alive. What is hidden under the throne..."
Puff, puff, puff...
The sound of slashing drowned out the roar of the high priest. The guards watching the show waved their swords and chopped the high priest and his wife into pieces.
"Um?"
Lin Yi frowned after seeing this scene. According to normal procedures, the Imperial Guards cannot attack officials at will, otherwise it will cause a lot of trouble.
Even if there is a secret order from the old king, the situation will be the same, because it involves an issue of political stance.
After the imperial guards cut the bodies of the high priest and his wife into pieces, they quickly came around Lin Yi and all knelt down on one knee.
Just now, they overstepped their authority.
Today, Lin Yi represented the old king's will, so all the imperial guards knelt near Lin Yi.
As long as Lin Yi gives the order to let these guards commit suicide, these guys will not hesitate at all.
"The Iron Hand executed the High Priest, leaving no one alive in the courtyard."
Upon hearing Lin Yi's order, the surrounding guards stood up and began to clean up the servants in the high priest's house.
With the high priests eliminated, only the chief judge Hervé Antony, who lives on the south side of the royal capital, is still alive.
Half an hour later, several people stared at an old courtyard on the outskirts of the royal capital. This is the residence of Chief Judge Hervey. Although the area is not small, it looks a bit shabby. If you don’t know the chief judge’s identity very well, As a person, Su Xiao thought that the other party was an honest official.
Of course, this purge operation cannot use assassinations, but must carry out killings with great fanfare, in order to frighten those officials in the royal capital who are ready to take action because the struggle for power is about to begin.
"Eminem, get ready."
"Leave no one behind."
With a loud "boom", Eminem rushed out like a powerful tank and directly smashed the outer wall of the chief judge's courtyard.
"Enemy attack!!"
As soon as the roar sounded, a roar came from the dark courtyard, noisy footsteps came, and streaks of fire appeared.
In less than ten seconds, the courtyard was illuminated by dozens of torches, and "soldiers" holding bucklers rushed out from the castle in the center of the courtyard like a tide.
But it is a pity that although these soldiers were carefully trained by Chief Judge Hervey, they were completely incomparable to the killing machines brought by Lin Yi.
These Imperial Guards have experienced countless life and death experiences outside the Wall of God. It can be said that they are people who have truly crawled out of the pile of dead people and have seen too much blood and cruelty.
How can these soldiers who have never seen blood in front of them be the opponents of these guards.
As soon as the two sides came into contact, the Praetorian Guards were like sharp knives, instantly tearing through the opponent's defense line and rushing into the courtyard of Chief Judge Hervé.
Su Xiao walked through the crowd, the sword light lit up, and two heads flew up. A moment later, he appeared in the center of the courtyard, in front of the slightly old castle.
Bang.
Su Xiao walked calmly through the crowd, flashed the long knife in his hand, the knife light lit up, and two heads flew up instantly.
A moment later, he appeared in the center of the courtyard, in front of the slightly old castle.
"Bang!" Sawdust flew and Su Xiao kicked the main entrance of the castle into pieces.
Where you enter is a very wide staircase.
Standing at the top of the stairs was a strong bald man with a lizard tattooed on his bald head, which looked very ferocious.
"I heard that you are the strongest warrior in the capital? I am very curious about how strong the strongest warrior among the idiots in the capital will be. The real strong men are all on the front line, and only idiots will stay in the capital to enjoy themselves." Baldhead The strong man said loudly while flexing his muscles.
His pupils are green, but he is not from the Necrons, so there is only one possibility. He is a holy warrior who betrayed the kingdom.
Money can make all the difference, let alone a holy warrior? Even the old king was jealous of Chief Judge Hervey's property. (End of chapter)
