"This guy was not the one we expected Dalton or the Southern nobles who were allied with him."

Renard touched his chin and gave an answer that surprised others.

Not to mention Austin asking questions, even Allen and Bol were a little confused.

"Then why did he attack us? Not to mention killing people, he didn't seem to be a temporary intention, just like he was well prepared."

Austin was still thinking, and Allen asked first.

"He is a killer in the Underworld of the Empire. The reason he came here is because he took a mission." Renard put down his right hand, stroking his chin, and looked opposite him, "a mission targeting Austin."

"Your second uncle seems to be very considerate of you. He issued a sky-high reward for you in the Underworld, 10,000 Jinptons, a silver-level magic tool, and five silver-level magic potions."

"It seems that he has hollowed out the Gun Flame Family's old foundation."

Hearing this, Austin's right hand, which was placed on the seat, suddenly tightened his clench, and his joints raised and turned pale, as if he was extremely angry.

Allen couldn't help but be shocked by the other party's big moves.

Of course, it's not the 10,000 Kimptons.

Although this money is a lot, even ordinary viscount nobles cannot directly take it out, this is because the nobles have rich family backgrounds mostly because they have invested in many industries.

For ordinary low-ranking nobles, their family industries are not strong and their cash flow is not strong.

Therefore, if a viscount noble wants to take out such a large amount of cash in a short period of time, then he will most likely have to choose to sell his property.

But when it comes to the level of the Earl, everything is different. Although it is only one level difference between it and the Viscount, the status of the two is very different.

Just like the "Aristocratic Inheritance Act" stipulates all nobles, in most cases, they can only target low-level and shallow emerging nobles such as barons and viscounts.

For the Gun Flame family, although this 10,000 Kimpton is a bit troublesome, if the situation is good, it will only cost 2 or 3 years.

Moreover, when you reach a certain level, the attractiveness of money in the secular stage to extraordinary people will gradually weaken. After all, many things cannot be bought with money.

So, what really angered Austin was the two rewards that were offered at the back, the Silver Potion and the Silver Magic Tool.

Although the demon tide has resurfaced, silver-level magic potions and magic tools are still the top precious items in the world today. Even if the golden-level magic tools have been born, there are often very few that kind of thing. Now, silver-level is the mainstream.

The Gun Flame Family has been rising for a short time, only more than a hundred years. Although it has received a lot of rewards from following Charles VII, it is a sudden loss of energy and the family's background is directly damaged.

At this critical moment, the family's power is weak and the family's background is damaged, which means that the opportunity to go further in the next great era is lost.

After all, there is only so much cake. If you eat more, others will eat less.

Austin went south this time to regain what originally belonged to him.

In his opinion, Dalton was tantamount to ruining his own wealth. How could he not be angry or resentful?

"Boss, don't worry, as long as their mission cannot be completed, their rewards cannot be fulfilled, right?"

Allen smiled at Austin and said comfortably.

"Sorry, I lost my composure." Austin's expression also became much calmer when he heard this. He breathed a long sigh and said to the three people who cared about him.

Seeing that Austin had recovered from the previous news, Renard continued: "By the way, there is a bad news that you need to know."

Allen, Austin, and Boll all turned to look at Renard, with a bit of solemnity in their eyes.

"Because our disguise was quite successful, although these people took on the mission at the beginning, they did not know our specific location and route. This is why we have never encountered similar attacks before."

"But now that there is the first one, then the greedy jackals who will follow the traces left by the other party, it's just a matter of time."

"In other words, he is just the vanguard, and there are many killers behind him who will complete the reward. We will face the attack like a maggot. "

For a moment, the atmosphere was a little heavy.

After looking at Austin, who was heavy because of the news, Allen spoke: "Didn't we have expected such a situation?"

Allen laughed, and there was no worry in his tone of being about to face the storm. Some of them were only absolute confidence in himself and his comrades.

Infected by Allen's emotions, Austin's dull expression couldn't help but relieve a little. Although he was still worried, he had already escaped from the sudden news before.

Seeing this, Bor and Allen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

After all, although the main players who went south this time were Allen and Renard, Austin was the core of this action. If he was in a state of turmoil due to these sudden news and could not keep calm and make correct and decisive decisions, then the success rate of their actions would be reduced unlimitedly.

Fortunately, Austin was extraordinary after all and recovered in a very short time.

Seeing this, Allen smiled with relief, then hugged the iron box and closed his eyes again.

However, at the moment when he closed his eyes, no one noticed it, a trace of caution flashed in his eyes.

Although comforting Austin says that, people still have to face reality after all.

He knew very well that although he didn't know why these carnivorous jackals discovered them first, when they encountered the first wave of attacks, it meant that they had been exposed to the enemy's vision.

Those enemies who came from the Augustus family, nominally had nothing to do with the southern noble family, and even wanted to take advantage of the situation, would definitely not miss this opportunity and would stare at them tightly.

Maybe Austin and others will escape from each other's vision in the middle and get a temporary breathing opportunity, but more so, the enemy is in the dark and I am in the bright situation.

Allen and Renard are still a little confident in protecting Austin.

After all, one magic system and one melee battle, two silver-level combat forces guard Austin. Except for those silver peaks standing at the top of the empire, they are not afraid of any enemies.

Unless the other party uses the golden-level magic tool, it is possible to break through Allen and the others' protection.

But His Majesty Caesar, who was sitting on the throne, was not a vegetarian. With such blatant cheating methods, his anger that could not be suppressed would really explode directly after setting the tone of family internal strife.

This is difficult for those conservative and corrupt southern nobles to bear.

Therefore, the next attack may be dense, but the intensity and difficulty level should not be too great.

After all, everyone knows the situation of the Gun Flame Family. If there are suddenly more things that shouldn't be extra, then this matter is as obvious as catching lice on a bald head.

However, although the intensity is not high, it is only compared to the peak silver-level strong men and the golden-level demon tools. If they do not cheer up, the result will not be much better.

I think Austin should also be worried about this.

Allen leaned quietly on the back of the chair, keeping his mind clear and thorough, and restoring his energy.

But, it seemed like something was ringing, "Renard, do you know how he found our traces?"

"Well, he learned it from an intelligence dealer."

"Intelligence dealer?"

Alan, who had closed his eyes, muttered half-thought and half-repeatedly.

"It's really interesting. It's hard to leave the next journey." As he said, Alan smiled at the corner of his mouth, adjusted his sitting position, and leaned comfortably on the back of the chair.

The next itinerary is still very difficult. If you revise more energy, you will have more chances of success.

Allen's breathing became longer, as if he was in a deep sleep.

But the long sword in the iron box seemed to be connected to Alan's qi, vibrating little by little with the frequency of his breathing.

The platinum halo is quietly rendered, rippling in the dark environment, circle by circle, like the ripples on the lake.

However, the platinum halo cannot ripple too far away, and often begins to dissipate before it touches the inside of the iron box, and merges into the long sword like a rebound.

The rebounding light and the new halo overlapped, one light and one dark like breathing, and between this breath, the long sword quietly shook its sharpness, waiting for the next emergence.

...

The vast plains seem a little silent in the darkness, with some empty aftertaste. Only the cry of various wild beasts such as the rising and falling tiger roar and wolf howls can make people feel the vitality from the desolate nature.

In the areas close to the south, the strong wind blowing from the north is no longer as cold as the northern border. On the contrary, it has some warmth from the imperial capital.

The knee-high weeds swayed in the night wind, unable to withstand the strong wind from time to time, and lowered their bodies to level the ground.

In this night, the train tracks surrounded by barbed wire are like an endless long snake that is spread on the earth, terrifying and terrifying.

Gugugugu!

Suddenly, a sound suddenly rang out in this quiet night, like grinding teeth with accompaniment of rodents.

On the side of the track, a gray-white rabbit ran into the world surrounded by barbed wire and enjoyed the virgin land where few wild beasts noticed it.

It was extremely happy to eat, and the rustling sound was enough to support it.

Woo woo woo woo woo!

The sudden sound of the whistle suddenly sounded, unlike the sound that nature could make, which scared the gray-white rabbit who was eating.

It took a small step away from the track with some hesitation, but it seemed that it could not bear to let go of these rare delicacies and turned around.

However, the next moment, it no longer has to hesitate, and its instinct has helped it make a decision.

In the distance, two solid pillars of light suddenly appeared, and the eyes of an extremely huge terrifying beast were scurried, frightening the little rabbit, who was already extremely panicked, ran away.

However, this uninvited guest with little wisdom has left the train route, but other uninvited guests have no intention of leaving.

“Is this the train?”

In the darkness, a sound suddenly appeared. If the gray-white rabbit was still here, it would probably be frightened. Why are there other people there?

A tall figure in a luxurious tuxedo stood in the shadow not far from the barbed wire, and his whole body was as dreamy as if it was integrated with the shadow. If he didn't speak, no one would have discovered his existence at all.

Not to mention ordinary people, even extraordinary people are unlikely to find a wanderer who controls the power of shadow under such an environment, let alone the race of this wanderer is still a blood clan.

Therefore, it is understandable that the gray-white rabbit, which is more sensitive to the outside world, did not discover the existence of Glain.

However, the next moment, another sound rang in the air.
