Mang Hou
Chapter 227 Kill Slowly
Su Lun and Mr. Mirror were in a shop called "White Whale Alchemy Shop" picking out materials when suddenly the whole street went quiet. The pedestrians on the side of the road consciously avoided standing on both sides, lowering their eyebrows and eyes, not daring to look directly at the mighty group of people walking not far away.
This group had a grand display, with a team of guards in silver glittering armor leading the way, the leader of the guards also holding two ice giant slaves on iron chains, as if walking dogs.
In the center of the team was a fat man with a big head and ears and a proud face, the fat on his face drooping in an eight-character line, his eyes narrowed into slits, estimated to be over three hundred pounds.
The nobles of the Lu Ying Empire could recognize him at a glance, not only by the show, but also by their clothes.
In order to distinguish themselves from the common people, the nobles specially made a set of complicated noble costumes to distinguish the ranks of nobility.
The guy in front of him, wearing a red and yellow woolen coat, with three rows of silver buttons on his chest and silver leaves on his hat, was a viscount.
According to the empire's noble hierarchy, the lord of Gadongte was a hereditary earl, and the lord's son was a viscount.
Needless to say, this fat man was Viscount Primo, a second-generation master who did nothing but eat, drink, and play with women.
Viscount Primo didn't have a good reputation in the territory. Su Lun remembered from the memories of several Sea Serpent Gang members that he was a lecherous ghost.
Relying on the power in his hands, this guy had done a lot of things to violate the women of good families.
However, in the Lu Ying Empire, the status of nobles was inviolable.
The lord was the local emperor.
In this aristocratic legal system, the people were private property, so he was still doing it legally.
What's more, there was always a group of sycophants around Primo.
Some dark and dirty work was also done by the Sea Serpent Gang.
Although the plundering of women had caused a few minor accidents,
Nothing major had happened.
...
Su Lun and the two bought a lot of materials in this material shop, and the young steward who was in charge of receiving them had already regarded them as big customers. Seeing the group of people coming, he kindly reminded, "The two of you are from out of town. That is Viscount Primo. You must not offend him. Also, it is best for the lady to avoid some..."
The steward spoke very vaguely, but Su Lun understood.
Those people were here to "hunt for beauty."
However, he knew that even if they wanted to avoid it, they couldn't.
Because Su Lun saw a skinny guy with a pointed mouth and monkey cheeks in the distance in the team. Having stripped the memories of several members of the Sea Serpent Gang before, he also knew that this guy was Pence, the squad leader of the city gate.
In fact, Su Lun had already noticed an ill-intentioned gaze fixed on them.
Not long after getting off the airship for a meal.
They were two guys wearing peaked caps, and their stalking skills were not very clever. Now they were still under the awning of the shop across the street, glancing into the shop from time to time.
When Viscount Primo and his party came, the two guys winked at Pence in the team.
That guy had already seen Su Lun and the others.
...
If Su Lun could find them, Mr. Mirror could naturally find them too.
She didn't speak, obviously wanting to see what "demons and monsters" would be attracted.
This was exactly what Su Lun wanted.
Although he didn't think he was a person who hated evil like an enemy, he couldn't tolerate some sand in his eyes.
Especially, this kind of thing.
He had spent so many years in the juvenile detention center in his previous life, reflecting on the regulations countless times.
But Su Lun always felt that even if he lived again, he would definitely stab those hooligans to death.
How similar were the eyes of those people to this group of people?
If things really broke down, he would just become a pirate.
Afraid of being wanted?
That didn't exist.
What others might have to worry about was a small problem for an old fritter on the wanted list like Su Lun.
Although being a pirate in the ground world was wandering and uncertain, it was a hundred times more comfortable than the living environment outside Old Lingdun, and there was nothing unacceptable about it.
...
Half an hour ago, Captain Pence finished his shift at the city gate and returned to his secret hut excitedly.
He thought that the people from the Sea Serpent Gang would bring the beauty and lock her up here as usual.
But when he went to take a look, there was no one!
When he asked a few punks, they said that "Viper" Bolit and the others had indeed taken action. But they didn't catch anyone, and their team had mysteriously lost contact. Even within the Sea Serpent Gang, there was no news of them, as if they had completely disappeared.
Pence immediately guessed that he might have caused big trouble.
Being able to make a Tier 2 professional disappear silently could also make him disappear.
The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became.
He was just a squad leader, and he couldn't afford to offend any big shots.
But Pence also had some clever ideas. The reason why nothing had happened for so long was because he was bold and careful, and he had backers.
Therefore, he planned to divert the disaster.
He could let his "backer," Viscount Primo, deal with the trouble that he couldn't afford to offend.
No matter how big the background, he would have to lie low in Gadongte!
Pence knew that Viscount Primo's daily life, apart from eating, drinking, and having fun, was to go out on the street to "hunt for beauty" and find some fresh excitement.
With a little trick, he guided that guy to this street.
As soon as he walked over, Pence saw Su Lun and the others under the guidance of two punks. He quietly leaned over and said in a thief-like manner, "Lord Primo, look there!"
Primo felt that life was becoming more and more boring. The maids in the castle, the top cards in the pleasure houses, the beauties and slaves sent by various big merchants were readily available, and he was already tired of them.
After playing around, he still found the women of good families the most flavorful.
He enjoyed the expression of the women under his crotch being humiliated and crying, yet not daring to disobey the dignified Viscount...
Therefore, he only looked forward to wandering around the city every day to "pick flowers."
His father didn't allow him to harass the permanent residents of the city, so he could only come to places with a lot of out-of-towners after listening to the guards' suggestions.
This was the materials street frequented by professionals, full of burly men. Even if there were women, there weren't many good-looking ones. Primo originally thought that he wouldn't encounter any good stuff today.
But unexpectedly, following Pence's guidance, he saw the woman in the red dress sitting in the "White Whale Alchemy Shop." Primo's eyes immediately widened, and he was overjoyed: My goodness, there is actually such a top-quality woman in the world!
...
The steward who was entertaining Su Lun and the others saw Viscount Primo's gaze and thought to himself that something was wrong, and whispered a reminder: "Sir, you should avoid him."
Mr. Mirror was expressionless, and Su Lun also smiled and shook his head, unmoved.
The other party was specifically looking for them, and they couldn't avoid it even if they wanted to.
"Ah..."
The steward watched as the group had already entered the shop, and let out a long sigh of helplessness, secretly thinking that these two out-of-towners were going to be in big trouble. But he couldn't help them either.
Seeing the fat man enter the shop, the shop owner also guessed what was going on. Although he felt bitter in his heart, he had no choice but to greet him with a smile and said, "Lord Viscount, you have honored our small shop with your presence. Do you need any materials? Oh, how can we trouble you to come here in person? Lord, whatever you need, just notify the guards, and I will personally send it to your castle."
"No need to trouble yourself, I'm just here to take a look."
Primo asked casually, playing with an alchemical material on the counter, his mind absent, and asked, "What good stuff have you got recently..."
His gaze fell on Mr. Mirror not far away, his small eyes narrowed into a line, full of greedy and lecherous light.
That extraordinary and aloof cold aura made him tremble with excitement at just one glance.
Primo's group of lackeys also understood what their master meant and began to inspect the customers in the shop.
After all, he was a noble, and it was not good to kidnap people on the street. They needed an "excuse."
Captain Pence didn't know that Su Lun had recognized him and pretended to come over and ask.
"Who are you people? Where are you from?"
"We are from Anlogos County, here for a trip. This is my wife."
"Identification?"
Su Lun took out his identification, which had the city entry stamp on it.
He also wanted to see what tricks these guys could play.
Pence looked at the identification, pretended to look at it for a while, couldn't find any fault, and asked, "Do you have any noble relatives in your family?"
Su Lun said lightly, "No."
Hearing this, Pence's expression obviously relaxed, and he didn't say any more nonsense. He directly asked in a commanding tone, "There is something wrong with your identification. Come with us to the security office for investigation."
"Why?"
Su Lun sneered in his heart and asked, "Captain, can you tell me what is wrong with my identification?"
Pence said casually, "We suspect that you are connected to a smuggling case that happened earlier. Please cooperate with our investigation."
"Hehe..."
Su Lun sneered when he heard this unwarranted charge.
There was nothing new about it.
A sharp glint flashed in his eyes, and he didn't bother to talk nonsense with this kind of person anymore, and said, "A few members of the Sea Serpent Gang came to kidnap my wife before. They said it was Captain Pence who instructed them. May I ask, did you instruct them?"
Mr. Mirror had been silent all along. Su Lun knew that this matter was going to get big.
Just right, he also wanted to kill people.
Especially this kind of person.
Speaking very loudly, he also wanted to make that Viscount Primo realize that he was being used.
After all, reputation and reality were two different things.
What if... an innocent person was killed by mistake?
As soon as these words came out, Pence realized that the other party actually knew him, and he felt a faint sense of unease in his heart: Damn Bolit, how could he have confessed everything!
But he quibbled, "I don't know what you're talking about."
But obviously, the fat pig was already lustful and would not think about any roundabout schemes.
His eyes had already moved from Mr. Mirror's body, and he couldn't take his eyes off her. Seeing that his lackeys were not doing things efficiently, he couldn't wait to interject, "Since there is a problem, take the two of them back for questioning first."
Hearing this, everyone in the shop's expression became a little unsightly. Even if they didn't understand just now, they now understood what this Viscount was going to do. But everyone knew it in their hearts, but they didn't dare to speak out.
Su Lun shook his head, this time he wouldn't kill the wrong person.
At this time, Mr. Mirror on the side said lightly, "According to Lu Ying's law, you have no right to detain us without reason..."
The last reliance of the common people was the law, and she also wanted to see if this powerful civilized country on the ground was still of any use.
Primo felt that he was being offended. How dare a commoner speak to him like this?
How dare he question the authority of the lord?
The fat on his face twitched, revealing a mocking smile.
Before he could speak, Pence on the side shouted very knowingly, "In Gadongte, Viscount's words are the law!"
Mr. Mirror shook her head.
Su Lun also raised his eyebrows slightly, he liked this kind of arrogance.
In their eyes, the lives of nobles were not so valuable.
Su Lun said, "What if we don't cooperate?"
Seeing that a conflict was about to break out, Pence was not surprised but happy. Relying on his large number of people, he shouted arrogantly, "You better cooperate... otherwise, if you dare to resist, you will be killed without mercy..."
Before he could finish speaking, there was a sudden explosion in the air.
With a "pop" sound.
Before everyone could react, Su Lun's figure had already dissipated before their eyes.
"Protect Lord Viscount!"
The reaction of the few Tier 3 guards was also extremely fast, and they rushed out of the shop with Primo in their arms.
But Su Lun's first target was not that fat pig, but Pence!
Everyone only saw the figure dissipate, and Su Lun had already appeared several meters away. He grabbed Pence's neck, suspended him in mid-air, glanced at him, "What about now?"
Pence's energy was all used on women. He was just a half-baked professional. How could he break free from the iron pliers that were holding his neck?
His face was flushed red, and he still wanted to play tricks, "Daring to attack Lord Viscount is... a death sentence..."
Su Lun snorted coldly, the killing intent in his eyes did not waver in the slightest.
The reason why he let this kind of person live for another second was to let him feel what despair was.
At this moment, he punched out, and the fist wrapped in violent wind elements slammed into Pence's head.
With a "bang" explosion.
Like a watermelon exploding, splashing scarlet everywhere.
Su Lun used the most violent and bloody way to execute this kind of scum.
Seeing such a terrifying scene, everyone else in the alchemy shop was stunned.
Seeing the massacre scene and being shocked was one thing,
What shocked them even more was that
Someone dared to kill Viscount Primo's people?
Oh my god, these two out-of-towners were dead!
...
Su Lun had inquired before that there was a Tier 6 navy commander in Gadongte Port.
There were also several Tier 5 and Tier 4 professionals.
But those high-level professionals were mostly in important positions in the army.
That Earl of Mist Moon also had many sons, but it was impossible for such an unpromising one to have senior generals by his side to protect him when he came out to hunt for beauty.
This fat pig only brought a few Tier 3 guards with him.
Su Lun killed Pence, but he didn't intend to let go of the mastermind outside.
A three-hundred-pound fat man couldn't escape quickly even with the Tier 3 guards protecting him.
Just as he was about to go out, Mr. Mirror said lightly, "Don't worry, kill him slowly. I want to see if that Earl of Mist Moon can find a way to get his son out of this death sentence..."
Although the words were plain, the killing intent was full.
The implication was to make things big, with her backing him up.
If they couldn't reach an agreement, they would even kill that Earl.
Su Lun grinned, feeling that it was exactly what he wanted!
This was not "Black Reef," where there was nowhere to go after killing someone.
This was the land, whether land or sea, he could go anywhere.
Not in a hurry to kill people, Su Lun was not in a hurry to expose his iconic puppet skills. He rushed out, and the mage seal of both hands pinched, "Hormone Outburst!"
As the mage seal changed again, a layer of dark golden gold elemental armor condensed on the skin.
His physical strength was already no worse than that of a regular Tier 3 physical professional. Once the hormones were activated, his close combat ability exploded.
He chased out alone, resisting a hail of bullets, his fists like rain.
Those guards had to face Su Lun head-on to cover Primo's escape.
Although these guards of the Earl's Mansion were much more powerful than the punks of the Viper Gang, no one was Su Lun's opponent.
Tier 1 professionals were almost killed with one punch each, and Tier 2 or higher professionals could last a few rounds with their armor.
The fists hit those wearing heavy armor, like artillery fire, "bang," "bang," "bang"... the sound exploded throughout the street.
Killing all the way, corpses all the way...
...
There were many people in the alchemy market, and the movement on the hillside was very loud.
Soon, the news spread throughout Gadongte Port through various channels.
A purple-haired woman was strolling in a jewelry store selling high-end jewelry. When she heard her subordinates report, she seemed to be interested: "Someone wants to kill Primo? Heh, a little interesting... Let's go, let's go take a look."
In a foreign embassy station, a group of soldiers covered in heavy mechanical battle armor also received the news at the first time. The middle-aged man with a beard leading them immediately realized that something was strange: "Yo, someone actually dares to attack and kill the Earl's son in Gadongte Port? Tsk tsk... has some backbone! Let's go, let's go join in the fun!"
In the Earl's Mansion, Earl of Mist Moon, Osaska Ackerman, was meeting an old friend, "Blood Earl" Antonio Harris from the eastern province of Senodia.
Hearing that his son was being attacked and killed on the street, Osaska Ackerman seemed to have guessed something: "Damn it! That kid must be causing me trouble again!"
He naturally knew about his son's affairs, but for nobles, that was not a big deal. Some common women were just the rights that nobles should enjoy.
Compared to these, he was even more angry that someone dared to make trouble in his territory. This was a challenge to his authority as the lord!
He said to his old friend, "Old friend, I apologize for the embarrassment."
Antonio shook his head: "Daring to attack in the city, maybe some sea pirates have sneaked in. I'll go take a look too, maybe I can help a little."
