Chapter 267: Bad, Sylphy is targeted by Ariel
Pretending to be cool is a very pleasant thing.
Especially when you are pretending, there are thousands of people watching and cheering for you.
The colorful Stellan gods were thrown out continuously and hit the boat, making the crisp sound of tinkling palm trees.
Very crispy.
Alan felt a chill in his heart.
Allen wasn't just unhappy; he was damn miserable.
The problem is – the boat is leaking.
The hole is nearly one meter wide.
Allen thought that even if there was a leak, with his speed, he could still row back before the ship sank, right?
But since he had never played with Ariel, he underestimated the speed of the leak, and also underestimated the public's great enthusiasm for this kind of knight-princess plot where the assassin hero saves the beauty.
Just as he picked up the oar and prepared to row, a dense crowd of Stellan gods descended from the sky.
The northern pier near the direction where Vi Ta fled had not been cleared, so there were many people, including many women, and many street vendors.
So there are many gods and servants.
Even the young girls, teenagers, young women and middle-aged women throw it very inaccurately.
Still, the bottom of the boat was filled with just one round of throwing. When Alan realized something was wrong, two, three, and four rounds of throwing fell on the deck like rain.
Wow, it’s damn fast!
He hadn't rowed a few meters before the damn boat was about to sink!
The water surface soon reached Alan's waist. He looked at the gods' servants who were floating up and down at his waist, and he felt as if he was a pure priestess who was sacrificed to the river god.
No? What the hell are you doing? Can't you see there's something wrong with my boat?
He turned around and looked towards the shore in surprise.
As he moved, the cheers became louder!
"Ah! The Knight's ship is sinking! He's looking over here! He's going ashore!"
“Come to my side!”
"I'm over here, don't squeeze me!!"
“Sir Knight!!”
Alan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that this sudden frenzy directed at him was actually more of a collective emotional contagion. Ordinary people without jobs had a low level of education and their ability to control their emotions was very poor.
What the people are enthusiastic about now is not Alan as a person, but they are simply indulging in the lively atmosphere of the moment, which allows them to temporarily put aside their worries.
In other words, they don't consider your position, whether your boat is leaking or not, or what to do next. No matter whether men or women, they are all thinking about how to keep this atmosphere going for a while, so naturally, sinking Alan's boat, forcing him to come to the shore, and letting everyone have a good time is the serious matter.
As for when everyone is done touching each other, will they go to your house, my house, or his house?
That’s something for the next round of collective emotions to consider.
Alan shuddered.
He dived into the water and swam back to the boat in a very embarrassed manner.
But the good news is.
The Street Troops were quite efficient and serious in clearing the bodies from the ship.
——If they ignored Alice who was standing behind them with a knife in her hand and pouting.
Alan shook off the water on his body, walked forward, and looked at the blade broken into two pieces under Alice's feet, and a member of the Street Corps who had fainted with a bloody face after being hit on the ground.
I roughly understood what happened when I went to kill Vi Ta.
"where are they?"
When Alice saw Allen coming back, she glanced at the head in Allen's hand, and found that the "sword intent" of the knife falling on the broken neck was similar to the cuts on her body on the ground last night. She frowned and asked instead of answering.
“Is it true that I can’t learn this?”
"real."
"Humph! If you don't want to teach me, then don't teach me! I don't want to learn!" (`へ)
Seeing Alice in such a state of confusion, Alan used his free hand to rub her hair.
"They're still upstairs? So you're watching from down there?"
Alice's red eyes did not look at Alan, but turned to look at the river beside her.
"Yeah, these guys always want to go up there. I heard it from up there. My brother told them not to get close!"
Alan glanced at the street troops. At this time, Alan swam in the water and washed off the blood. His hair was put back to match his face.
His casual expression looks very fierce, but it makes him more in line with the street soldiers' stereotype of nobles as "looking high and mighty".
This actually made the people in the Street Army feel friendly, and they all smiled carefully to apologize.
"Sir Knight, can we take over now? Princess Ariel has not come out yet and the nobles in the municipal government are worried."
"The public is watching this. If we don't take any action, we won't be able to explain ourselves."
"Yeah, there's definitely no assassin among us."
Alan glanced at everyone with an expressionless face, then turned around and saw the gentlemen on the dock looking at this position anxiously. When they saw Alan looking at them, their faces changed and they lowered their heads and whispered to each other.
Now Alan is confirmed as Her Royal Highness the Princess's knight.
All the assassins who should be killed have been killed.
Then the next step is to hold someone accountable. What they are worried about now is not Ariel's safety, but what "instructions" Ariel gave to Allen on the third floor just now, whether it is related to Liupu City, whether they should launch a military operation to hold her accountable, and to what extent should they hold her accountable?
Alan curled his lips and sneered at the street soldiers.
"Liupu City is almost becoming a den of assassins. There are assassins among the craftsmen. Obviously, there are some problems within your ranks, especially you street soldiers. You knew that Her Highness Ariel was coming, but you did a really good job in security."
The smiles on the faces of the street soldiers disappeared instantly.
Alan stretched out his hand and shook off the water on the skull, as if he was shaking off a rag waiting to be dried.
"I don't know if there are any assassins among you, and I am too lazy to find out, but one thing is clear, that is, if I kill all of you with one strike, there will definitely be more 'unclean' ones than 'clean' ones."
"But I also understand that you have to report to the emperor, so you are blocking me here and insist on meeting Her Highness Ariel to test her attitude. How about this, I will give you a choice to report to the emperor."
"Now, go back and tell your masters over there to clean up Liupu City thoroughly within an hour to see if there are any fish that have escaped the net. Those who should be killed should be killed, and those who should die should die. If you find it difficult to do it, I don't mind helping you."
"Do you understand what I mean?"
The faces of the Street Troops froze when they heard this. They had never heard such a straightforward U-know-M3-style questioning from the other world before they crossed over. They were stunned for a long while before nodding.
“I understand.”
After saying that, he was about to leave.
Allen, however, remembered something and waved his hand. "Oh, by the way, the body cleaning is done well. Leave a few people. There is another body upstairs. It is Her Highness Ariel's personal maid. It has been confirmed that an assassin has infiltrated. We need your help to clean it up."
The Street Troops were stunned when they heard this, then they were overjoyed and quickly sent a few people to go upstairs, but were stopped by Alan.
"Wait, the body will be sent down to you in a moment."
Everyone was stunned again and could only say yes.
Alan turned and went upstairs.
The street soldiers looked at each other in silence.
But Alice showed a slightly smug smile on her face and touched her hair.
Of course she knew she couldn't learn it, but Alan was a little busy these two days and she always felt ignored.
So she subconsciously wanted to show some presence.
look.
Isn’t this very effective!
-
Alan walked up the stairs to the door of the third floor and knocked twice.
"Please come in."
He pushed open the door, and even though he was prepared, he was still slightly stunned by the scene before him.
The body of the maid on the bed had been turned around, so that Puxi's position was aligned with the traces of urine leakage on the bed, making it look like she had lost control of her bladder after being killed by Allen.
This is a complete frame-up.
As for the culprit, Ariel, she was wearing a sky blue dress, with a dignified demeanor. She sat gracefully on a chair beside the bed, the sunlight shone through the window on her face, her graying blonde hair fluttered in the wind in the cabin, she looked extremely serious, and the scars on her face, which was full of character, had disappeared.
He was holding Sylphy's hand, placing it on his lap, and looking at her with a smile.
The latter was in a state of panic, his reddish-brown eyes kept wandering around Ariel's pretty face, his thin shoulders were tense, and he looked like an ugly duckling at a loss when seeing a swan, with a face full of déjà vu: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
While walking outside the Motalit Inn at night, Sylphy was worried about this most beautiful woman in Asura and Eren's other 'god-giver'. She was also worried that Eren would have any necessary contact with her because of the struggle for power.
If he was really accepted as a consort by the princess, would Allen, as a noble like Boreas, have the position to refuse? If he couldn't refuse, would he and his teacher be driven away?
Alan's response at the time was not to worry and just relax.
And she did relax at that time, and the outbreak of the Isaruti incident later diverted her attention. Until today, she had completely put Ariel in the corner of her mind while interacting with Isaruti, the "third brother".
But now, why, the princess, fell directly from the sky! !
And she's holding my hand?
Why did she hold my hand and not let go? Was it because I treated her face? But why did she keep staring at my face? Shouldn't she look at her face in the mirror?
Sylphy tried to pull her hand away again.
Can't be removed.
@_@!
Rudy stood aside, looking like a countryman entering the village, quietly watching Ariel. Izuluti stood next to him, but her face did not look too worried. On her other side was Dilic, who had long black-brown hair and had already woken up. Judging from their postures, the two were talking before entering the door.
When Dilic saw Allen, his eyes lit up and he came over.
"Are you Alan Boreas Greyrat? I am the princess's guardian warlock, named Dilic Retbart. Thank you very much for your help!"
Alan turned and looked at him.
"Hello. Nice to meet you. Dilic Reitbart. I killed Huilin Reitbart."
Dilic's face, which was trying to force a smile, froze in an instant, but his reaction was very quick. He paused for only a moment, then lowered his head and spoke through gritted teeth.
"I'm sorry. This is my fault. I didn't realize that the Redbart in the capital had joined the First Prince's army. I am willing to take the responsibility for my fault and resign from the position of guardian sorcerer. I will let Miss Sylphiet take over as the princess' personal guardian sorcerer. As for you, you will naturally serve as the princess' personal guard."
Ariel, who was far away, frowned and shouted after hearing this.
"Dilic!!"
Alan waved his hand to stop the two people from reacting, brushed past Dilic, walked to Sylphy's side, stretched out his hand and patted her stiff shoulder gently.
The latter's tense body suddenly relaxed.
Ariel glanced at Allen and let go of Sylphy's hand. The latter took the opportunity to quickly retreat to Izolotti's side behind her and then breathed a sigh of relief.
Just listen to Alan continue.
"Don't be in a hurry to tie us up on your ship. I'm sure Izoluti has already explained the general situation to you. Huilin Reitbart, the only surviving orphan of Dilic's branch family, is now the top-ranked assassin in the Liupu City assassin group. And there are also assassins on your ship who were planted by him through Dilic's relationship."
"It's obvious that this assassination was planned before you set off for the capital."
"Although Hui Er was used by someone to assassinate us first, strictly speaking, we were involved in the assassination in this battle for the crown prince. Now I have helped you to deal with the assassination. You should thank me instead of pretending to be apologetic but actually arrogant and give me a chance to join your camp."
"understand?"
Ariel's face was a little tense. She was silent for a while, and was about to speak when she was interrupted by Dilic.
His face looked very ugly. He looked deeply at Alan, exhaled, and lowered his head.
The expression is very sincere.
"I'm sorry, it has nothing to do with Your Highness. I was too impatient. Thank you for your help. I am also deeply sorry that you were involved in this incident. The fact is just as you said, it was my negligence. Regarding your involvement in this incident, although you may not need it, I am willing to provide compensation to the best of my ability."
"And, after this, I sincerely hope that you can consider joining Her Highness Ariel. She will be a wise ruler of Asura in the future."
Ariel was nodding when she heard the first half of the sentence, but when Dilic finished the second half, she was stunned for a moment and showed an obvious look of anger.
"Mr. Guardian Warlock! The recruitment should naturally be done by me! Please don't do unnecessary things!"
Dilic opened his mouth, his face pale, his expression of fear was beyond words. After being kicked awake by Alice, he soon learned the whole story from Izuluti. He combined the information and made a slight inference, and concluded that the killing plan against Her Highness Ariel was based on him, the guardian warlock beside the princess, as the key.
And he was totally unaware of it from beginning to end.
If Allen had not been involved, the assassination would have been successful by now.
This made him feel extremely powerless.
That's why the moment he saw Allen, he was eager to take advantage of the situation to tie several people to his own camp and find strong support.
Who is Allan Boreas Graylat?
Of course he 'knew' it.
So famous.
Wish you all a happy National Day~~
