night.
Located in a quiet alley on King's Avenue in Lewis City, a pursuit has been going on from the city gate to this place.
In the dark alley, Occam jumped into a narrow gap, hoping that he could escape the pursuit of the State Alchemist!
hiss~
The expression under the hood became somewhat painful, and the wound on his arm was still dripping with blood. When he came to this city, he had not expected that there would be a state alchemist in this city, and he was an Orderer with a level close to 10!
What a mistake! I shouldn't have come to this city.
Ockham originally wanted to take advantage of the convenience of Lewis City and the prosperity of the city's port, wait until the port garrison relaxed its vigilance, sneak onto the cargo ship, and then leave this place with the ship.
No matter where I go, as long as I can leave Kselke!
However, the national alchemists had also thought of this escape route. When the cargo caravan from Adak docked today, they strengthened the port's defenses. Just when they thought they could get on board and leave, they suddenly issued an order that no one was allowed to leave the port today, and that each ship had to be inspected one by one.
Occam was forced to jump off the boat and escape when he encountered patrolling soldiers who chased him from the port in the evening until late at night.
ah!
Ockham looked at the blood flowing from his arm...
Just when I used fog to block the pursuers' sight, the other party used a gunpowder gun to shoot at me. It was impossible for me to dodge that low-end weapon. It must be some other ability that pierced my arm.
He wanted to go down to the light and take a look, but was afraid of being discovered by others, so Occam could only reach out and touch it himself!
Sure enough, I felt an irregular deformed steel piece in the muscle, which should be the ability used by the opponent after shooting.
So fast!
Could it be that woman?
Ockham took a deep breath, and at that moment he heard the sound of dogs barking in the street.
not good.
The other party used dogs to track the scent of blood, so they would find me sooner or later. I had to find a place to hide, preferably a place that could cover my injuries.
At this time, Occam suddenly thought of the prosperous streets he had encountered on the way here just now. There were many hotels in that place, which consumed a lot of poultry and game every day. If he walked along the city waterways, the dogs would not be able to smell them.
Thinking of this, Occam quickly changed direction and went around the side towards the place he had just come from.
Try to hide your arms as well as possible so that no one can notice them even when you walk down the street.
"Get out of the way, the garrison is arresting people." A group of people hurriedly ran past.
There are quite a lot of people at the night market late at night! After all, this is where mercenaries and merchants often stay. It is impossible to ban people from coming and going every day!
Ockham felt a little relieved when he heard the garrison behind him had gone away.
Although I was injured this time, it seems that the injury was worth it. As long as I can stop the people who are chasing me the most closely, no one will catch up with me again, and they will never think that I will choose to go back.
Humph! These so-called Gold Alchemists are just brainless idiots.
Occam walked along with the crowd, which made him less likely to be noticed... There were also people wearing hoods like him in the mercenary groups that often went out, so it was not surprising to see them dressed like this.
The streets were filled with the smell of late-night barbecue, and Occam felt much more relaxed when he smelled it!
It should be fine now. Even a well-trained dog wouldn't be able to recognize me in this situation...
Just as Arkham was constantly comforting himself, he heard a dog barking again not far behind him.
I didn't dare look back and could only quicken my pace.
It seems that we still can’t underestimate them!
I looked at the alley in the middle of the street shops. Well, it was the place where people threw garbage every day. A little deeper was the sewage outlet of the city's ring road.
Taking a deep breath, Occam walked straight in... He didn't believe those bastards could tell the difference in a place like this.
I walked around the alley, quickening my pace, trying to run as fast as possible.
"What? A water alchemist would also choose to escape?"
A sudden voice interrupted all of Occam's illusions.
He raised his head.
With the help of the faint moonlight, I saw a woman standing on the roof. She was wearing a blue uniform and white tight trousers that outlined her perfect figure. She was holding a rapier in her hand, and even her curvy waist seemed to be tied with a lot of weapons and props.
However, when you see a woman appear, Occam has no time to appreciate her!
"Rachel Christian." Occam pronounced the name grimly.
"Hmph, I didn't expect you to have some experience. Water Alchemist... But even you can only go this far today. If you go back with me obediently, maybe you can suffer less. Otherwise, if I take you away by force, it will be more than just a few injuries." The woman jumped directly from the roof and stood a few meters away from Occam.
"How did you catch me?"
Occam didn't understand why he was found even though he had been very careful to avoid being tracked by this group of people!
"Hehe, do you think you are the smartest person? Of course, we can think of what you can think of." Rachel said with a smile.
At this time, the pursuers who followed also went around to the waterway.
"Surrender, Ockham. Come back with me, and perhaps the mentor will plead for you with the Inquisition because of our past friendship."
