"Ah Choo!"

Paul, who was sitting on horseback, sneezed. He took out a handkerchief and wiped his nose, and wrapped his clothes tightly.

After entering November, the weather is getting colder and colder.

"After the shipyard builds another batch of ships, I will definitely open inland waterway transportation specially for people, and I will call it 'public transportation ship'."

"Let these boats run up and down the Weiss, and for a penny or two a man can get aboard, and disembark when he reaches his destination."

"In today's weather, you don't have to brave the cold wind to run around outside. It would be nice to have a small stove in the cabin and enjoy the scenery on both sides of the strait while warming up."

Paul gushed out his thoughts to those around him.

"You have a great idea!"

Squadron Captain Victor, who served as the head of the guard, offered his flattery at the right time.

Paul glanced at the female advisor Ladi next to him. When he was a little disappointed, the other party didn't seem to be listening to what he said just now. He still looked like he was facing a big enemy, and looked around with vigilant eyes from time to time.

He made a helpless gesture to the chief guard, "Ah~~ She has been like this since she left Huxin Town in the morning."

Victor scratched his head and said, "Uh... this subordinate thinks it's right for Ladi Xiaojie to be so vigilant, although it's a bit against her behavior for a girl."

After Paul decided to go to Fulan Port, the female consultant offered to go with him. At first Paul thought she was going out to relax or something, but the reason given by the female consultant made him feel very strange:

"My lord, I have made a divination for you. You may encounter some bad things on the road! Of course, this is only a possibility, but be careful, please let me go with you, as I Some of the skills you learned as an adventurer should be useful to you."

Divination? She couldn't be joking, a serious scholar would believe this. But seeing that she was really worried about her own safety, Paul granted her request to go with her.

"Then why didn't you just stop me from this trip?"

"The divination results show that even if you stay in Huxin Town, you still won't be able to avoid this bad luck."

"Uh... good."

Then Ladi put on the outfit she used to wear when she was an adventurer, carrying the bow and arrow that once killed the black-spotted tiger on her back, and went on the road with him.

The female advisor also strongly suggested that she bring more guards. Paul agreed, and brought two small squads of internal guards, and they went to Port Flandre under the command of the chief guard Victor.

Just when Paul lamented in his heart that this is really an ignorant era, and even Ladi, who is a scholar, is not exempt from it, he heard the female consultant shout: "There is a situation, stop!"

Everyone was startled by him, and they reined in one after another, and the whole team stopped moving forward.

The female consultant pointed forward, and everyone looked along. About 500 meters away, there was indeed someone walking towards them along the road.

Paul complained: "Hey, are you nervous? That might just be an ordinary passer-by."

"I've been staring at that man for ten minutes, and I've always had a feeling in my heart that he has bad intentions for us. My lord, please trust my intuition. My intuition has always been accurate."

"Ten minutes? We just saw him. Oh, how good is your eyesight? Okay, I'm so scared by what you said, Victor, send someone over to question him."

"Yes, my lord."

Just when the chief guard was about to call people over, the person in front seemed to have noticed them too. He stopped and stared at the team, and soon continued to walk this way, and walked in an unbiased manner. In the middle of the road, there is no intention of avoiding it.

You must know that Paul's team is under the banner of the Greiman family. A red flag with a dragon pattern printed on it is extremely eye-catching. As long as you are not blind, whoever sees this flag dares to stand in the middle of the road?

The chief guard noticed something unusual and shouted: "Warning!"

The guards clenched their weapons tightly, and there was a sound of swords being unsheathed.

Paul looked forward, and saw that this person was tall and tall, wrapped in a black cloak, hunting under the cold wind, and his face was obscured by the hood.

"Shit! Didn't he really come here to find fault? Seeing the bully's coaxing momentum, it really feels a bit like a lonely assassin!"

Paul complained in his heart: "This guy won't suddenly rush to our team to play Wushuang? It's done like this in movies and anime."

The other party was getting closer, and Victor shouted to the man: "Stranger, stop your steps! In front of you is the team of Earl Paul Greiman, the lord of Arda, stop immediately and tell us why you came .

The cloaked man stopped about 50 meters away from the team, and a deep voice came from the hood:

"You are Paul Grayman? Hmph! It really didn't take much effort. I didn't expect to meet him on the way. It also saved me a trip to Huxin Town."

The voice was obviously not loud, but it was clearly and unmistakably transmitted to everyone's ears across the long distance.

The female advisor, Ladi, immediately stood in front of Paul, her eyebrows were tightly frowned, and she stared at the person. She said in a deep voice, "My lord, some strange things may happen later, please prepare yourself mentally." .

Paul was at a loss, but it was certain that the visitor had malicious intentions. Seeing that the usually prudent female consultant was so nervous, his heart was also raised.

There is another thing that makes him feel wrong. The two teams on his side add up to dozens of people, while the other side is only one person, but there is a faint sense of oppression.

Victor, the head of the guard, shouted angrily: "Guard, take down this rude man!"

It doesn't take much effort to call the lord's name directly, but also arrogantly say something, as if the earl is like an item that has been manipulated arbitrarily. I've been paying attention to it for a long time.

The three soldiers ran over immediately, but saw the cloaked man standing there obediently, allowing two soldiers to pinch his arms, one left and one right, while the third soldier pulled out a rope to tie him up.

Just when the two soldiers on the left and right were trying to break his arms on his back, a sudden change occurred!

The cloaked man suddenly raised his arms, grabbed the necks of the two soldiers tightly, and pushed their heads toward his chest.

The two soldiers are like babies who are powerless to resist, UU reading www. uukanshu.com's heads touched together in an instant, and under the stunned eyes of everyone, the part where their foreheads met collapsed, and their brains splattered everywhere.

As soon as the cloaked man let go, the two corpses fell powerlessly on the ground. He shook his head and said, "Tsk! The newly bought clothes are dirty again!"

Although it was a complaint, his tone was extremely relaxed, as if he had just crushed two small bugs to death.

He stuck out his tongue and licked the brains splashed at the corner of his mouth, and said darkly: "However, it's been a long time since I've seen this feeling!"

The two companions were killed in the blink of an eye, and the remaining soldier holding the rope was so frightened that he didn't even have the strength to escape. He slumped on the ground, his body trembling constantly, and his terrified eyes turned to the person in front of him. It's like watching a demon running out of hell.

"The first team, protect the earl! The second team, follow me!"

Victor, the head of the guard, was the first to react, and immediately issued an order.

A small group of soldiers tightly surrounded Paul, who hadn't reacted yet, and the female consultant who was muttering words without knowing what to say. Their swords were outwardly guarding the surroundings. At this time, they couldn't just focus on one direction.

Another squad of soldiers gathered around the chief guard and approached the cloaked man together.

The man in the cloak also moved forward and continued to walk towards Paul. He made strange gestures with his right hand and muttered some inexplicable words.

"Stoneskin Technique..." An understandable word combination came out of his mouth.

At this moment, the female consultant beside Paul stopped whispering, she paused for a while and whispered: "Concentrate on..."

Paul suddenly felt something moving in his chest. He looked down and saw a stone hanging on his chest was trembling slightly, and its gray appearance was slowly turning black...
