Ark Traveler, I want to take a day off today too

"But according to Dagda, challenging the strong is the honor of warriors and knights!"

"Hey, Indra, you... you... what do you mean! The will of any warrior deserves respect. Did I say anything wrong?" The black-haired film girl wearing extremely punk clothes blushed immediately, "But it's really not right for that man to leave at this time..."

"Dagda, please don't say such words that will affect morale, and Mr. Dredger's loyalty and courage should not be questioned." The King of Advancement then whispered to his men, and the knight girl immediately lowered her head and admitted her mistake:

"Feel sorry."

“It’s normal to feel confused, but Indra, I accept your challenge.” Linley’s voice came from a corner, along with a roar like thunder.

'boom! ’

"Hey, keep quiet, what if we get discovered by those guys?" The blonde and dark-skinned girl named Morgan shouted in dissatisfaction, and the man just chuckled and shook his head.

"Don't worry, it's just a small noise. Nothing will happen. It's better to say that the noise made by the citizens leaving the city is bigger than mine."

As Linley spoke, he pointed to the entrance of the Sadien District of Londinium. Citizens of Victoria poured out of that place like springs, while the Sarkaz soldiers standing guard at the entrance looked indifferent, as if these citizens who would never come back once they left the city would not have much impact on them.

"Hey, hey, hey, Vina, It seems that Theresis's army doesn't want to care about these civilians at all!" Indra whispered, with a hint of disbelief in the girl's voice.

The leader, the King of Advancement, raised his hammer and shook his head. His brown eyes were extremely calm. “It seems that he doesn’t care about letting people outside of Londinium know who is the real ruler of Londinium now.” She turned her head and looked at Linley who was standing silently at the side.

"The Duke's troops that have arrived and are preparing to surround Londinium should be the direct reason why the Sarkaz left the city."

“Is that so? Then is Amiya also planning to infiltrate at this time?” Linley’s voice was low but loud enough for the people of the Glass Gang to hear clearly. “Oh, you don’t have to say anything. I saw it… Then let me ask another question, King of Advancement.”

"Did the two Victorian soldiers who were with you go to find their colleagues?"

"Well, but Miss Horn seems to want to prevent this disaster." The King of Advancement had a bit more compassion on his face: "But now Victoria must have collapsed the parliament itself. Even if she can organize an army, she is probably the only one who can command it."

"It doesn't matter, as long as she doesn't hinder our actions." The hunter smiled and took a step forward. He wanted to catch up with Amiya and the others before they entered the city - after all, the doctor's outfit was quite strange and prominent in every way, and he could ensure their safety to the greatest extent.

"Doctor, there is a problem now. The messenger who has been in contact with you and Dr. Kal'tsit was supposed to contact us immediately after we arrived at the annex." The little rabbit stood beside the doctor and said softly, "But...she hasn't appeared yet, and we can't get in touch with her."

"But we have to move forward anyway. The arrow is on the string and there is no reason not to shoot it." The doctor's voice was very calm, or rather, this situation was within her calculations: "Also, if we can't contact her, I tend to think that she has been captured or killed... But this kind of thing will be discussed with others later, so as not to lose our composure because of this."

“Well said. Doctor, do you think our guide is acting strange?” Linley interrupted the conversation. He put one arm around the hooded man’s waist and the other around the little rabbit’s hand. “The other two, don’t move. Follow me.”

“Mr. Linley! You’re back. Are Doctor Kal’tsit and the others okay?”

“Nothing will happen with me here, but the uninvited guest is a bit impressive. I’ll tell you after we go in.” Lin Lei said as he used the power of psychic energy to create an illusion of a rather ordinary film woman around Jian Bo. “Doctor, don’t move. They won’t think your clothes and appearance are strange now.”

"Well, okay... But the guide you mentioned... I feel like he's hiding something." Jane's voice was a little flustered - after all, this was her first time being so close to a man, but she didn't hate him. "It shouldn't be that simple for the Deep Pool Army to find him."

Then the doctor thought of something, and she looked at Amiya: "Amiya, tell all the members who are going to escort Mr. Thomas to keep a certain distance from him to prevent him from stealing our equipment. If he doesn't mess around, send him away. If he does something out of line, keep silent."

"Understood, Doctor. I'll do it right away." Amiya passed the order to others without hesitation, but at this time the crowd that had originally followed the flow of people to run out of the city suddenly became riotous - the reason was that the Sarkaz army that had turned a blind eye began to check people!

“Why are they investigating people at this time? But it seems that they are not investigating our Rhodes Island?” Amiya was stunned at first, but soon Linley’s voice calmed the girl down:

"Amiya, don't be anxious. Tracy doesn't have photos of all of us, and it's impossible for him to send all the information about Rhodes Island to these lowest-level soldiers." The hunter narrowed his eyes slightly, and his sight had already passed the crowd and looked above the towering city walls - there were several people there who were as powerful as or even stronger than Mandela.

061. Climb the wall!

"Mr. Thomas, if you don't want to die, please don't act rashly." The Rhodes Island operator standing next to the guide whispered. Just as Amiya and the doctor said, this man really wanted to snatch his weapon and run away. "We will take you out of Londinium safely."

"If you do this now, you will only be discovered by the people in Deep Pool."

"No, you're wrong. Do you think the people in Deep Pool haven't discovered us?" Seeing that the plan to snatch weapons and get out of here was hopeless, the guide named Thomas immediately laughed miserably, "They are coming!"

However, at this moment, the crowd at the entrance was in commotion again - the group of Sarkaz soldiers who were conducting the inspection came over, and their eyes collided with the Deep Pool soldiers at the end of the team.

"I thought who was making the noise here, it turns out it's you traitors." The leading Sarkaz soldier, carrying a big sword, sneered at the Deep Pool soldiers standing behind with crossbows, "Whatever you are going to do, stop right there, we have more important things to do."

"We have never admitted that we have any relationship with Victoria, demon." The soldiers from Deep Pool snorted in response. As soldiers under Mandela in the past, they might not be good at fighting but they must have a foul mouth.

And they have to find the guy who defected from Shen Chi. If they can't take him away, then they will kill him here! People who belong to Shen Chi will always belong to Shen Chi. If they are alive, they must see the person. If they are dead, they must see the body.

And! Death does not mean the end of your life. The leader will give these losers and the dead a second chance, and then let them continue to serve Shenchi and Aburana!

"Then - who allowed you to call us that?" The Sarkaz's expression suddenly became extremely dangerous. Although the number of people on their side is far less than that of the people in the Deep Pool, as long as the Regent and the Demon King are here, they are not afraid of anyone!

The Sarkaz raised the greatsword and pointed it at the Deep Pool soldier who had raised his crossbow. "We are here to track down some disobedient sewer bugs. These little creatures who don't know their own limits are hiding nearby and causing trouble for our work. If you don't want to die, get out of here!"

It is worth noting that the attire of these Sarkaz warriors is completely different from that of the Sarkaz mercenaries that W once led. They all wear brand new and identical armors. Not surprisingly, they are all produced by the local military factory in Londinium, rather than being pulled off the corpses of other people by these warriors.

"We'll leave as soon as we find someone."

"Who do you think you are? Even if your leaders come in person, nothing good will happen." The Sarkaz soldier's muscles bulged slightly, and his sneer turned into a bloodthirsty grin: "Don't think we don't know. Your leader wanted to meet His Highness, but was driven out in disgrace."

...

“Amiya, are you okay?” Linley noticed at this moment that the girl’s body was shaking uncontrollably, and all he could do was hold her hand tightly. “Did you hear anything?”

“Mr. Linley, when I heard these Sarkaz warriors call me ‘Lord’, a strand of that emotion… it bounced up and gently grabbed me. That feeling was wonderful, I don’t know how to describe it…” Amiya shook her head: “But now we should figure out what Tresis is going to do.”

"The conflict between the Deep Pool troops and the Sarkaz may be a breakthrough." The King of Advancement spoke softly, his lion-like brown eyes sizing up the soldiers around him from time to time: "But I feel that other forces will take advantage of this opportunity to attack. After all, the conflict between these two groups of people will be a very good opportunity..."

Before the King of Advance finished speaking, a bowstring vibration sound that Linley could clearly see came over! A crossbow arrow even broke through the air and flew towards the neck of a Sarkaz soldier! The one using this hand crossbow was the blonde Rupert, who was very familiar to the hunters. As expected, Horn, who had left early, mixed in with a group of "civilians" who were obviously Victorian soldiers.

"This pocket crossbow is really familiar. Ezio also liked to use this thing back then." Linley smacked his lips. As expected, the Sarkaz soldiers and the Deep Pool troops started fighting here.

The soldiers wielded broadswords and long swords, regardless of friend or foe, or the occasion!

Blood was splattering and the crowd was wailing. At this moment, the originally peaceful flow of people turned into hell.

"Amiya, we can't let these innocent people die at the hands of these people. Sorry, I can't just stand there and watch." The King of Advancement whispered, tightly gripping his warhammer - although she has not yet become the King Victoria in Dagda's mouth, the tragic scene before her is definitely something she cannot stand idly by.

"But we haven't officially entered the inner wall yet." The doctor's voice was still calm, but it sounded a little cruel and cold-blooded at this moment: "We can't leave all the operators here. Saving this small group of people may be important, but there are more important things to do."

"Amiya, let the non-combatants find a way to sneak into the city, and then let the combatants help the King of Advance and his men while ensuring their own safety." The doctor issued orders one after another, like a ruthless command tower: "But remember, once I say go, no one is allowed to stay!"

"It's Doctor!"

At this moment, Linley narrowed his eyes and continued to stare at the towering city wall. “Amiya, protect the doctor. I have to go meet two unfriendly friends.” As the hunter spoke, he stuffed an ice crystal that was almost identical to the one in Kal’tsit’s hand into Jane’s hand.

"If you are in danger, crush it and I will know... If not, it is one of my signal receivers, and I can determine your location."

After saying this, Linley disappeared from the spot, like a wisp of wind. His body was wrapped in black and red spiritual energy. Every time his toes touched the depressions in the city wall, the hunter would move up a long way. In less than a minute, the huge city defense cannon and the Sarkaz men in military uniforms had come into his sight.

Behind this Sarkaz with a black and red cape as a symbol of power was a one-eyed Sarkaz wearing armor and holding a greatsword. Linley felt as if he had seen that appearance somewhere before.

062. Breath of the Golden Leviathan!

On the high wall, Sarkaz soldiers were patrolling back and forth. In Linley’s opinion, these warriors showed qualities far superior to those of the patrol teams below and the soldiers of the Deep Pool.

At this time, General Sarkaz, who was standing on the high wall and looking down at the commotion below, spoke up: "How long will it take to complete the debugging?"

The answer was: "A quarter of an hour."

This seemingly mature Sarkaz’s voice was surprisingly young! Linley stood on the city wall and watched them. The dual invisibility from his psychic energy and void light energy allowed him to perform an extremely rustic square dance in front of these warriors without being discovered.

"But what they are debugging should be the city defense artillery of Londinium." The hunter touched his chin and stood next to the red-haired man as if nothing had happened, just like another bodyguard of the general mentioned above.

At this time, the general named Manfred spoke again, his eyes were solemn and his tone was serious, and he could not refuse to accept the request: "Eight minutes, adjust it within eight minutes. The situation below will not allow us to adjust it for too long."

At this moment, Manfred turned around almost instantly and drew the long sword from his waist and slashed towards Linley! The hunter simply stepped back a few steps and dodged the vertical slash with an elegant turn.

‘Click! ’

The sharp sword left an extremely deep sword mark on the extremely hard stone brick. At this time, even though Hedley, who was standing aside and knew nothing, realized that his boss might have encountered an enemy!

Without hesitation, the one-eyed, red-haired man took off the huge sword from his back and held it in front of Manfred: "Is there an assassin?"

"It's hard to say. I just felt my horn flicked and my cape pulled." Manfred's expression was quite strange. "And I could feel that the air flow was not right when the sword slashed over just now."

'Where did this abstract assassin come from? ' Hedley's mouth twitched. His superior would not joke with him at this time, so if he said there was someone, there must be someone!

Then, this mercenary, who could be said to have crawled out from the pile of corpses, also felt the same strange touch that Manfred felt—someone patted his shoulder and strangled his eyepatch!

"Sarkaz dirty talk! You're still getting excited, aren't you!" Hedley thrust the greatsword directly at the empty space in front of him. Suddenly, streams of flames attached to the blade and ignited the surrounding air!

'Snapped! '

With an extremely crisp clapping sound, the giant sword that was originally firmly fixed in Hedley's hand smashed uncontrollably towards the ground on one side! At the same time, the floating cannon named the Root of Tikaz flew directly out of Manfred's hand and emitted a laser-like light into the air in front of him.

"Sir, please show yourself. You are surrounded." Manfred said in very standard Victorian English. "Come out now and I will forgive your rude behavior just now."

Following the general’s words, all the Sarkaz soldiers close to the two men, except for the technicians who were still debugging the city defense cannon, had already formed a circle around the open space where Linley was. Large shields and spears were already raised without any orders—but this alone was not enough to control Linley, who could not be sensed at all.

With a simple slide, the hunter successfully ran behind Manfred, and there was a short knife in his hand - this weapon given by Wei Yanwu had not seen blood for a long time.

Without any signs, Linley appeared on the city wall with lightning and cold currents, and the dagger in his hand stabbed directly at Manfred's extremely long tail, "I have never cut off the tail of a demon!"

"Ding" "Ding" "Ding"

After breaking through the shadow, Linley's aura and power leaked out, and Manfred naturally noticed it. He swung his long sword and turned around, and the two cold weapons splashed dozens of sparks in an instant. What made Manfred unacceptable was that this "assassin" was so powerful that he could suppress him with just a short sword?

And as a Sarkaz known for his strength, why would he feel a bit of difficulty?

"Hedley! Help me!"

But unfortunately, when Manfred shouted this, it was too late. Linley’s dagger spun and deflected the opponent’s sword. He then flew forward and kicked Manfred in the chest! For a moment, electricity surged!

"boom!"

As if he was hit by a Wendigo's spear, Manfred felt a sweetness in his throat and spat out a mouthful of blood. His nearly two-meter-tall body directly smashed into the soldier behind him. At this time, Hedley happened to rush towards the hunter with a huge sword, and the dagger and the huge sword collided with each other.

"clang!"

Almost the next second, Hedley felt the same huge force that Manfred had felt, followed by an almost identical roundhouse kick! However, this time, Hedley's chest was not struck by an electric current, but by layers of frost. As the mercenary vomited blood and flew backwards, he heard a murmur in his ears.

"Hedley... I seem to have heard this name somewhere. Since you are a mercenary... do you know a Sarkaz named W? She is a pretty girl with a foul mouth."

'Is he the helper that W found? It's impossible. How could W know such a monster?'

"Don't be in such a hurry, or I can't tell you what will happen next." The hunter slowly took off the 'Pseudo-Breath of Leviathan' from his back. The golden flame made this weapon with great mechanical beauty look more sacred.

“If you don’t want to die, stay here with me for a while. Also, General Manfred, don’t even think about giving orders. If you dare to let them fire, I will kill you and then I will kill Theresis.” Linley pulled the bowstring, and the chain burning with flames made the hunter look like the sun god who controls the sunrise and sunset.

"Who are you, and what is your relationship with that mob?" Manfred wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and was about to ask a question when he was interrupted by Hedley's low roar:

"I recognize you, the Man with the Golden Gun! The one who killed Garson!"

"Garson? Who is that? I don't know him." The hunter sneered, "It's just that I have to ensure that some people can enter the city safely, and your cannon will probably kill a lot of people. How about using your lives to buy a five-minute delay?"

"Can you keep your promise?" Manfred asked with a cold face. To be honest, if he hadn't felt numb all over his body, he would have ordered arrows to shoot the bastard to death.

"I, Drijer, always keep my word, and you have no choice. I'm not negotiating!"

063. You will regret it!

"General!" The Sarkaz warrior who was supporting Manfred shouted in a low voice. Perhaps the regent was the one who allowed these former Sarkaz mercenaries to regain their dignity and yearn for a home.

But it was this young general who made them live like human beings and received training so that the Sarkaz soldiers could fight in the same camp again. These soldiers trusted and loved him, and did not want him to fight to the death with an uninvited guest in this place.

“So, what’s your answer?” Linley looked at him and Hedley beside him with a half-smile. He had already fully pulled the bowstring of Leviathan’s Breath, and the iron-cone-like arrow had been completely enveloped by the golden flames. The Hunter was certain that even the Patriot would not be able to block this arrow!

Manfred's long golden hair was a little messy at the moment, and his blood-red eyes were shining with an indescribable brilliance - he didn't care about his own life. For him, if he could kill this man by sacrificing everyone here, he would do it without hesitation.

But no matter how he calculated or thought about this question, the answer was unknown - just like Manfred still didn't know how this man got to the top of the wall. He was like a ghost that suddenly appeared.

"You...tell me how you got to the top of the wall." Sarkaz tightly grasped the long sword in his hand, and his tone was no longer as calm as when he talked to Hedley before. "I can delay the bombardment for five minutes."

“You actually want to ask that? Not impossible.” Linley smiled, his hand still resting on the bowstring with no intention of removing the arrow. “I just climbed up like that.”

"How is it possible?!" Hedley, who was standing aside, was stunned and retorted almost subconsciously, but then Manfred raised his hand to signal Hedley not to speak anymore - although climbing up the city wall was a bit absurd, it was not impossible for such a monster, and not to mention him, the woman who used to be a disciple of the Regent like him could also do something similar.

In a sense, I still have to call that woman "senior sister", even though they are loyal to different people.

"Then I have another question. Which force are you serving? Are you interested in switching to the Regent's camp?" Manfred raised his eyebrows. "If you desire greater power and glory, then His Royal Highness the Regent will not treat you unfairly."

“I’m not interested. As for which faction I belong to… you’ll know sooner or later.” Linley said as he pointed to a building on the other side that could be described as towering into the sky. “Is that Victoria’s strategic weapon, the legendary ‘Shard’?”

“It’s really as tall as expected…” After seeing Hedley nod almost subconsciously, Linley continued to sigh: “Your Regent has been here for so long, this building cannot be out of your control, so I’m curious about who is in charge of it…”

"What do you want to do?"

"Of course, I would like to say hello to all the Lords of the Royal Courts in the city and your Regent!"

The cold current and storm spread out with the Hunter as the center in an instant, pushing the hands of those on the high walls to the ground with irresistible force, while he himself aimed the Breath of Leviathan at the 'Shard' and released the bowstring!

It was like the scream of a falcon high in the sky, and like the hissing of a viper coiled on the ground.

The golden arrow, dragging a long tail of flame, flew towards the building, and the sound like a giant beast wailing made everyone in the city look sideways!

"Stop him! Damn him!" Manfred yelled in a very out-of-control manner, but both he and his men could only crawl on the ground and hold on to the floor tiles tightly. His red eyes were now filled with blood - this bastard was even interested in waving at them after shooting the arrow!

“ciao~” Linley waved his hands, and at this moment the void light energy gathered around him and formed one ring after another, while his body slowly disappeared in the midst of it, just as it had happened when he came. In his perception, both the Doctor and Amiya were no longer there, and there was an explanation for whether they had retreated or moved, so naturally there was no reason for him to stay any longer.

......

"I swear, if you don't move that thing stuck on the back of my head now, all of you will be in big trouble." The doctor said in a low voice with his hands behind his back, looking at Filin, who was wearing a white shirt and a black vest in front of him.
