Chapter 41 Opponent

Three figures appeared amidst the ruins.

One of them, with a pointed face and constantly blinking eyes, leaped out from the shadows and looked ahead.

"Nick, are you sure they've been here?"

"certainly."

Nick, with his bright blue eyes, replied in a muffled voice:

"I've been watching Aya and the others for a whole month. Besides, even if you don't believe me, you should trust a rat's sense of smell."

"Book!"

He turned to look at the last person:

"Could this be the person the Brotherhood is looking for?"

"What does it matter?" 'Ben' sneered upon hearing this.

"The most important thing is how a young girl with no connections managed to build up a force in a short period of time."

"Don't you want to know where she got so much food?"

"That's good." Nick nodded.

"If we have her connections, we won't lose anything even if we don't join the fraternity."

Do not!

At that point, it's unlikely they'll be scheming to join the Brotherhood, but rather the other side will be begging them to join.

Although they were initially commissioned by the Brotherhood to find the killer of Shanks, that task is now irrelevant compared to the investigation.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but chuckle.

"First, confirm if this is their trading location. If it is, tell the leader to prepare."

"Ben" moved his hands and feet:

"I've had enough of that brat."

"So..." one person said:

"You came here for Aya?"

"certainly."

Ben nodded subconsciously, then suddenly turned around, looking in surprise in the direction from which the voice came:

"Who's there?"

Karl emerged from the darkness, looked at the three, and his expression relaxed slightly:

"At least it's not the worst outcome."

It seems that Aya did not betray him, and even the people in Aya's gang did not collude with outsiders, which shows that he did not choose the wrong person.

His two days of waiting here were worthwhile.

"Let's do it!"

Nick let out a low growl and lunged forward, his hands flashing out several hidden darts before they could be launched.

The other two reacted a little slower, but the living conditions in Black City also allowed them to make a decision immediately.

They charged forward, one after the other, closely following Nick.

Upon discovering that someone was secretly spying on them, they immediately took action, and when they did, they went for the kill.

"Oh……"

Karl chuckled.

Zero-Circle Sorcery - Lesser Spell Field!

As his mental strength increased, the power of his witchcraft also increased, and an invisible force field enveloped the surroundings.

moment.

When the incoming arrows were within three feet of Karl, they seemed to pierce through water, the strong resistance slowing their movement.

"when……"

With a gentle swing of the broadsword, the arrow was knocked away.

at the same time.

Carl snapped his fingers lightly with his left hand.

Light spell!

A blinding white light suddenly appeared.

The three rushing towards them instinctively closed their eyes, their reactions faltered, and their movements were completely disrupted.

Oh no!

"call……"

Karl stood firmly on the ground, his body moving like a bird, his broadsword whipping up a gust of wind as he charged toward the three.

Eagle strike!

Swift Wind Sword Technique!

He didn't hold back; he immediately unleashed his signature fighting techniques.

Gale Slash!

Several afterimages appeared out of thin air, merging with the broadsword itself, instantly enveloping all three people in the arena.

The suppression from the secondary spell field slowed the three of them down, making it impossible for them to mount a proper defense against the incoming attacks.

Just for a moment.

"puff!"

"Pfft!"

Blood splattered.

"what!"

Nick screamed in agony, his large hand jerking violently, and a sharp chain flew out from his sleeve.

"Splash..."

The chains swirling around caused Karl to pause slightly.

But that was all. With a flick of the sword, a head leaped high into the air, the headless corpse spraying blood a foot high before collapsing to the ground.

dead!

After a while.

Covered in blood, Karl crouched down and asked:

"So, the Brotherhood's redhead was killed, and they couldn't find the killer right away. So they asked you, as the local gangsters, to help them investigate, and promised that if you could find the killer and avenge the redhead, you could join the Brotherhood."

"During the investigation, you discovered that Aya was making secret deals, so you shifted your investigation to that deal?"

"Not bad." 'Ben,' covered in blood, roared:

"You killed Redhead. The Brotherhood will never let you get away with this, and neither will the leader let Aya and the others go."

"you……"

"They all have to die!"

Judging from his condition, he had suffered a lot of torment and knew in his heart that he could not escape his fate. His current angry roar was just to seek a quick death and relief.

"Maybe."

Carl nodded:

"Unfortunately, you won't be able to see it."

As soon as he finished speaking, the broadsword swept past, and "Ben" froze, his eyes losing all life, before he fell backward to the ground.

After killing the three men, Carl did not leave. Instead, he took out a whistle from his body and blew it loudly.

"Beep..."

The sharp whistle carried into the distance.

Not long after.

Aya and Xiaonan leaped out of a nearby crack, looked around, and headed straight for Karl.

"Uncle."

"Uncle..." Aya looked at the corpse on the ground, her eyes showing surprise:

"What's going on?"

"Someone is tracking and investigating us," Karl said slowly.

"Their leader is called Iron Fist Abe. Have you heard of that name?"

"Iron Fist Abe?" Aya's expression changed, her eyes turning sinister.

"certainly!"

"This guy is a local bully at the Laka market, he owns more than a dozen stalls, and he's been causing us trouble lately."

Aya was not at all surprised that the other party had their eyes on her.

But the fact that the other party was able to contact Carl means that their deal is likely already known, which is a matter of life and death for their small team.

Carl looked at Aya and asked:

"What are you planning to do?"

He didn't mention that the incident was related to his killing of the redhead; instead, he wanted to see how Aya would handle the situation today and whether she could satisfy him.

"Uncle."

After a moment of silence, Aya suddenly said:

"Konan is already a knight's squire."

"That's right!" Xiao Nan patted her chest proudly.

"Uncle Karl, I am now a knight's squire."

Knight's squire?

Karl's eyes flickered slightly.

This was beyond his expectations.

However, Xiao Nan's physique was extraordinary. At only ten years old, she was stronger than an adult. In addition, with the guidance of Old Lev, she had mastered breathing techniques and martial arts. Moreover, she had been well-nourished during this period, so it was only natural that she became a knight's squire.

"so……"

He looked at Aya:

"What do you want to say first?"

"I wanted to say..." Aya said, enunciating each word clearly:

"I'm not that little girl who could be bullied at will anymore!"

Upon hearing this,

A smile involuntarily appeared on Karl's face.

Iron Fist Abe's stronghold was not far from the Raqqa market. He and about twenty others occupied a dilapidated manor.

night.

A series of figures appeared nearby, surrounding the manor.

"Iron Fist Abe has two top fighters by his side, and together with himself, they make three knight squires, who are the strongest among them."

"However, Abe likes to drink. He drinks every day and always gets completely drunk. In any case, his fighting ability will be greatly reduced after drinking."

Aya whispered:

"Wait until the right moment, then we'll charge in, take care of his henchmen first, and then surround and attack Iron Fist Abe."

"Uncle."

She looked at Karl:

"Please keep an eye on things from the side."

"Um."

Carl nodded.

In the past few months, not only has he become stronger, but Aya has too, not to mention that they have hired help for this trip.
