The cold moonlight was crossed by an even clearer blade of light, and the world seemed to be divided into two different parts in front of Monique. One half was an ordinary street in Casimir eroded by neon colors, while the other half was filled with swords and sabers sprinkled with light golden rain.
"Ouch!" With an awkward backflip, Monique barely avoided the range of the blond man's falling sword. Covering her bleeding left arm, she couldn't help but let out a groan of pain.
She raised her head in disbelief, looking at the man standing in the hazy light rain not far away. It was Mainna Linguang, the long-rider of the prestigious Linguang family who was unwilling to take responsibility. He was now holding a small pen and looking down at her with a tired face.
"incredible."
Monique gritted her teeth, tore off a piece of the scarf from her neck, and used it as a makeshift piece of cloth to wrap around her bleeding left arm, venting her shock and injustice in her heart.
"With just a pen, without even a sword, you look so capable?!"
Monique thought that her close combat skills were not bad either. She studied at the Victoria Royal Guards Academy and was well versed in Victorian military fighting techniques. The racial talents of the Filin family also gave her a more agile posture and quicker reaction ability. Under normal circumstances, even when facing the siege of dozens of adult men, she could easily escape.
But today, it was just a man, an office worker who looked like he had just got home from work, with fatigue written all over his face. However, he used only a pen he had just taken out to knock away the crossbow arrow she shot, and got close to her in the blink of an eye, forcing her to use almost all her strength, but still retreated step by step, covered with scars.
Could this be Da Yan? Any guy walking on the street could be a martial arts master with special skills? Moreover, a martial arts master disguised as an office worker, isn't this too advanced?
No matter what, she had run into a tough guy today. No one could afford the cost of mission failure, not to mention that this mission was of great importance. If Hemlock managed to escape from her hands, Monique could imagine what would happen to her.
Maybe it will also implicate Roy.
Thinking of the innocent smile when he handed over the task to her and invited her on a date, Monique felt a little guilty for a moment:
Shouldn't I have called him just now to inform him that Mainna's strength is beyond imagination, and I am injured. If he comes, not only will he still fail to complete the mission, he may even lose his life.
But a request once made is like water spilled on the ground. Monique couldn't change her mind, and Maina wouldn't give her a second chance to call.
Under the cold light of the street lamp, Mainna subconsciously shook the pen in his hand, then frowned, as if he felt a little sorry for the lost ink. He carefully put the cap on the pen and put it back into his chest pocket.
He raised his head and glanced back calmly. Hemlock, who was hiding at the corner of the street, walked out slowly, as if he had breathed a long sigh of relief.
"I hope you didn't lie to me." Mainna frowned slightly and warned in a low voice.
The expelled Platinum Lord immediately answered firmly: "Of course not, Mr. Maenna, my lover is from Leitania, she swears that during the time when the Knight Lin Guang won the Knight Competition Championship, she did see two Kurantas with the same brilliant blonde hair and light in a tavern in Leitania!"
As he spoke, Hemlock turned his head and looked at Monique, who was already exhausted and locked by Maenna, and said:
"As long as you help me stop them and let me leave Casimir safely, I will tell you everything I know... Wait, what's the other one?"
A hint of confusion appeared on Hemlock's face, but the next second, his doubts were answered by a voice coming from the end of the street.
Roy walked out of the shadows at the intersection of the street lamps. Cintela, who was drawing her bow and arrow, followed him. Even though she had noticed Monique's condition, her tone was still not serious or nervous. Instead, she winked and said with a hint of sarcasm:
"Monique, you don't look very ladylike right now. Leave the rest to me. Go back and have a rest. Of course, I don't want this to affect our agreement."
Our agreement?
Monique was stunned for a moment, then her face darkened. It was already this late, and this crazy guy was still thinking about a date!
Looking at his appearance, it was obvious that he was totally unaware of Mainna's true strength. If he continued like this, he would be doomed!
Monique had already been defeated once because of her carelessness and underestimation of the enemy. She didn't want Roy to be left here. Even if the mission could not be completed, Roy had to at least leave safely, find Xuantie to report the situation, and save his life! She immediately said:
"We'll talk about our agreement later. Maenna is very strong. You go first and go back to the boss. Do you understand?"
Roy was stunned by this roar. How could we talk about our agreement later?
Roy mentioned this matter first because he hoped that Monique would do as agreed and recommend Xinteleia together. Otherwise, he would have boasted and failed to fulfill it. Wouldn't it be embarrassing? Now you say you don't want to, are you going to turn your back on me?
That won't do! Roy doesn't have the word "breaking a contract" in his dictionary!
Besides, there was no need for Monique to tell Roy that Mainna was very strong.
As a qualified time traveler, he already knew a thing or two about the strength of Maenna Linguang. From being able to fight the Shining Knight Linguang 70% to 30% with a wooden sword in one hand, to being able to single-handedly wipe out a team of 15 high-level war knight rebels and the Leitanian warlock, to being able to kill the leader of the war knights who were fully armed and fighting for their lives with just a sword, if it weren't for the Rhodes Island bunny's stronger background and greater potential, based on this record, in another world, he would definitely be the template of a male protagonist who pretends to be a pig and eats the tiger.
But on the other hand, the method to deal with him is also very simple, because he doesn't have much hostility towards himself and Monique.
This was evident from the fact that he had allowed Roy and Monique to communicate for so long. Although he didn't know what the bargaining chip was, it was obvious that the price Hemlock paid to bring in Maenna was only enough to support Maenna to "protect him" rather than "go against the No Helmet Alliance."
And Roy just happened to have enough bargaining chips to negotiate with Mainna!
"Mr. Mauna, I'm sorry, the person behind you is my mission target. If we fail to complete the mission, my colleagues and I may be fired by our black-hearted boss. So, can we talk?"
Roy tried to look sincere and said,
"I know something about your brother."
Maina's eyebrows were visibly raised, but to Roy's surprise, Maina soon calmed down.
He sighed, pulled out the pen again, and said coldly: "No need."
Roy's expression froze for a moment. What do you mean, Uncle Marna, what's wrong with you? Don't you want to know where Margaret's parents are now?
That’s not right. Doesn’t this fit with your personality of having a hidden brother complex?
"We can talk, your brother is in Leta..." Roy tried again.
But before he could finish his words, Manna shook his head again and raised his pen: "No need."
Roy's mouth twitched slightly.
Good man, this is shameless. Roy is not a soft persimmon. He can't do such a thing as a warm face and a cold butt. What's more, he just unlocked a new module and is very busy!
Seeing this, Roy also put away his smile, and a bit of coldness appeared on his handsome face:
"So, we can't come to an agreement?"
"Alright."
He raised his hand, pulled the hood of his clothes over his head, turned up the collar to cover his cheeks and neck, opened the module page, looked at the second module that had appeared not long ago, and resolutely chose to confirm the loading.
[S module [Power of Bounty Hunter A] has been loaded, the number of currently loaded modules: 2]
The tremendous force of moving mountains and filling the sea suddenly poured into his limbs and bones. At this moment, Roy seemed able to punch through the so-called unbreakable wall of Londinium with one punch!
Looking at Maenna in front of him, Roy took a stance, clenched his fists, and said proudly: "Let me try my sword on you!"

Volume 1: Chapter 6 Mauna, Power of the Mountain, Part Two!
Maina never thought that it was just an ordinary way home from get off work, but he would take such a long time to walk.
First, the Platinum Lord of the No-Hero Alliance suddenly appeared in front of him and asked for his protection. Immediately afterwards, an unfamiliar female Qingjin attacked him without any explanation. Fortunately, she was not strong, and Mainna successfully repelled her without much effort. Just when he was about to leave, he didn't expect that after beating the younger one, the older one came again, and even Roy showed up and wanted to fight with him.
Frankly speaking, Manna didn't want to get involved in this mess. Whether it was some new conspiracy of the Business Federation or the internal struggle of the No Helmet Alliance, it had nothing to do with him! Manna didn't want to get involved in these things at all.
But unfortunately, this Platinum man revealed news that he could not easily ignore - he actually knew the whereabouts of Snitz Linguang.
The most outstanding new generation general of Casimir, the role model and symbol of the Linguang family and the entire Casimir knight class, and also his elder brother. The story of Mainna's search for him cannot be told in three days and three nights.
Mainna didn't know what was going on in the mind of the Helmetless Alliance assassin who was cowering behind him, but he had to protect him this time. Of course, if he lied, Mainna promised to make sure he died in a more undignified way than being purged by the Helmetless Alliance themselves.
Do not underestimate the sharpness of the Lightless Knight, even if he has been hiding his sharpness for a long time, even if he has never accepted this false title.
Maenna held up the pen. The pen, which was only one finger long, was like a sharp blade in his hand. The light from the blood of the Linguang family slowly escaped from the tip of the pen and condensed on the sharp edge of the pen. He looked at Roy who was holding up the long sword not far away, and his frown deepened.
Unlike the unfamiliar Monique, Roy is also a figure in Mainna's heart. Everyone knows that this Blue Gold Leader of the Helmetless Alliance is famous for his archery skills, but why did he just draw his sword instead of using arrows when fighting against herself?
"Like that woman, underestimating the enemy?"
Maenna muttered to himself, and also restrained some of his momentum. In this case, there was no need for him to use all his strength, otherwise if Roy was seriously injured, the Wuzhou League might not be able to do anything to him, but Maria was not as strong as him.
But the next second, Roy, who he thought had not used his full strength, suddenly appeared beside him, and slashed towards Hemlock behind him with a long blade with great force, at such a fast speed that even he could hardly react.
At the critical moment, Mainna gritted his teeth, turned around in an almost inhuman way, and used the armor on his shoulders to block Roy's knife.
"boom!"
"boom!"
The loud sound of the ground breaking mixed with the crisp sound of sharp blades and arm armor colliding resounded throughout the street. The smoke and dust stirred up seemed to cover the place where Mainna and Roy had their first fight like fog. Under the violent wind, Monique barely opened her eyes and looked towards the center of the battlefield. Her pupils suddenly trembled.
In the center of the battlefield, where Mauna had been standing, the blond Pegasus was no longer as proud as he had been not long ago. His originally upright body was now bent down and could not stand up for a long time. The stone bricks under his feet had collapsed, and his boots were firmly sunk into two holes. A deep gap was left on his arm armor that had withstood Roy's sword. The exposed part could even directly see the bright red color of his skin. His face, which always had only two emotions, indifference and boredom, now had a third emotion. Monique recognized that expression, just like her expression at this moment, it was "shock"!
On the other side of the battlefield, Roy was panting heavily. The expensive D32 alloy steel blade in his hand had completely shattered, and the fragments reflected the pale light on the ground. His arms were shaking a little, as if he was feeling uncomfortable due to the recoil of the attack just now. But compared to Mayenna, he was obviously more respectable except for his dusty clothes!
"How is that possible?" Monique couldn't help but exclaim.
She had never seen Roy take action with her own eyes, but as a fellow Qingjin Great Master, she had always wishful thinking that Roy's strength should not be much different from hers, and the difference should be more in experience.
But to defeat Mauna with one sword? Monique asked herself if she could do this even if she was given ten years!
"incredible."
The opponent, the social animal ranger, was also amazed. He knew about the existence of the Wuzhou League, and he could even defeat the top of the Wuzhou League, the legendary Black Iron Throne. Roy, on the other hand, was just a Qingjin.
Mainna knew that he had not used his full strength just now. He did not have a sword and did not fight in a knightly manner. He was just trying to solve a small problem. Even at the moment the battle began, he still had a naive idea like "save energy, try not to get hurt, so as not to cause more trouble." But he was sure that even he could not be suppressed by a Blue Gold Lord.
What's more, didn't Roy not use his full strength?
"Without a set of rules for swordsmanship, without relying on famous archery skills, just using absolute strength to chop down a knife, I actually felt great danger and pressure."
Maenna stood up again, put away the pen, looked at Roy who was looking serious not far away, and said seriously:
"It seems that I underestimated the enemy."
Seeing Maenna put down her pen, Roy breathed a sigh of relief and finally smiled again: "You don't want to fight anymore? Are you willing to negotiate with me now?"
To be honest, although Roy knew Mainna's strength in advance, when they really fought, he had to admit that he still underestimated him.
In the split second of the fight just now, Roy had already installed his S-level module [Bounty Hunter A Power]. When facing an opponent with the power to split a mountain, his power would be greatly increased. Therefore, the force of Roy's slash was at least equivalent to three mountains!
Although it did not reach the level of the terrestrial fairyland where Skadi split fifty mountains with one sword, it also clearly showed that his uncle's strength just now was at least the strength of two mountains, otherwise Roy would not have been able to get such a terrifying increase!
Relying only on physical strength to reach the power of two mountains, Casimir's social slave is so terrifying? !
Maenna shook her head. "No more fighting. You are stronger than I expected. I am not sure I can defeat you. If we continue fighting, we will get into even bigger trouble. Besides, I have bought enough time."
He moved aside to clear the way. Behind him, Hemlock, seeing the bad situation, had already fled.
Seeing this, Roy winked at Monique on the side. He didn't plan to chase after her. Old Platinum didn't have the power to split the mountains. He had finally created an atmosphere of "please, I'm strong" to intimidate Maenna. If he chased after her, what if he faced Old Platinum head-on? Wouldn't his strength plummet? If he was exposed, it would be troublesome.
Monique immediately understood, nodded gratefully, stood up and chased after him. As for himself, he asked Maenna curiously:
"I'm curious, what did he use to convince you to help? The Lightless Knight Mayenna hasn't taken action in a long time."
Maenna glanced at Roy, perhaps a little disgusted with Roy's "knowingly asking questions", he curled his lips and said:
"About Snitks."
"They are in Leitania." Roy said immediately. He really wanted to send this guy who was competing with him for the strongest office animal away as soon as possible, and he was not stingy with this information which was meaningless to him.
But who knew that Ma Enna just nodded lightly, without any surprise, and replied:
"I know. He told me."
"Hemlock?" Now it was Roy's turn to be surprised. How did Old Platinum know this news?
Fortunately, before Roy could ask, Mahenna explained the answer himself:
"That man's wife is from Leithania, and he claims to have seen Snitzer and his men in a city in Leithania."
As he spoke, he looked at Roy, and nodded as if he had received confirmation from him:
"Looking at your expression, he probably didn't lie."
The assassination target who caused old Platinum to have an office romance and got fired was a Leitanian? He also met Margaret's parents?
This was the first time Roy knew this information. He was also very curious about the whereabouts of Margaret's parents. But before he could send a message to Monica and ask her to shoot Old Platinum with an arrow to spare his life, Monica's figure appeared again at the corner of the street.
"Mission accomplished." Looking at the surprised Roy, Monique pursed her lips and said with an unpleasant expression, "The boss did it himself, and..."
"Jingle Bell--"
Monique's words were interrupted by a series of rapid phone rings. Roy took out the anonymous phone from his pocket, looked at the number on it, hesitated for a moment, answered the call, and said in a familiar office worker's tone:
"Boss, good evening. There was a small problem with the mission. I will take care of it right away. I'm sure you won't have to worry about it."
"I've finished it." A sharp voice, obviously processed by a voice changer, came from the other end of the phone. "Roy, I kind of want to see you."
PS: Roy, the power of the mountain, three stages!
Ma Enna: Hiss, this kid is so scary?!
PS: Give some votes to speed up the plot!
Volume 1: Chapter 7 Roy's Infernal Affairs
The next morning, Manna woke up from his bed at exactly seven o'clock. He turned off the alarm clock that had just sounded, stood up, tidied his clothes, opened the door, and walked straight to the mailbox at the door.
Under his strict requirements, his niece Maria Lingguang also had a comforting biological clock. When Mainna took back today's newspaper, Maria also opened her door.
"Ha - Uncle, good morning." Maria yawned and greeted Mayenna happily as she walked towards the dining table with a newspaper. Unfortunately, Mayenna just nodded casually without even taking her eyes off the newspaper.
Fortunately, Maria was used to her uncle's temper and was not disappointed. She just walked to the kitchen happily. Unlike her uncle who had full strength, her life skills seemed to be focused on life skills. Her good cooking skills also successfully conquered Mauna and won the position of the chef in the family kitchen.
Soon after Maria entered the kitchen, the sizzling sound of bacon frying could be heard. As usual, Marner poured a glass of milk for herself and her niece, sat on a chair, and read today's morning paper while drinking milk.
