Chapter 267: Lost everything
"I promise you, you let him go..."
Bang!
At this moment, both Alice Roll and Gervis were feeling very emotional.
When Alice saw Gervis screaming miserably, the last bit of defense in her heart finally collapsed. Ever since her father disappeared, all the burdens of Jones County fell on her. If she hadn't confirmed through the elf bug that her father was still alive, just missing, she wouldn't know how she could get through this period.
In just these few short days, Gervis's various behaviors made Alice think that she had found someone who could share some of her worries, but she didn't expect that the reality was so cruel that it shattered the little comfort that had just risen in her heart.
Alice knew that Rawl would never dare to kill those vassals unless it was absolutely necessary, but Gervis in front of him did not have much chance of survival.
Alice finally couldn't help but speak at this moment, planning to let Gervase leave Winterfell before marrying Carl. This could be regarded as a reward for everything Gervase had done in the past few days.
As for whether Gervis can escape the pursuit in the end, it depends on Gervis's own luck, which is also the limit of what Alice can do.
After Gervis leaves, Alice will commit suicide. She will never let Rawl get what he wants.
…
The moment Luo Er heard Alice's agreement, his eyes lit up, and his tense heartstrings relaxed at this moment. If Alice agreed, then his plan was mostly completed, and no one would be able to stop his growth in the future.
Gervis felt that he was a little innocent. He didn't really want to make Alice so sad. In fact, when he came in front of Rawl, Gervis had always wanted to sneak attack Rawl and then quickly escape with Alice.
But Roll was, after all, a peak silver knight, and as a commander-in-chief promoted from a serf, his combat proficiency was beyond Gervis's imagination. Gervis always felt like a thorn in his back in front of Roll and dared not move at all.
Fortunately, Gervis thought his acting skills were pretty good, so he kept delaying and looking for an opportunity to take action.
Just as Alice opened her mouth, the opportunity finally came. Taking advantage of Roll's moment of relaxation, Gervis unhesitatingly shook out his pistol from his wide sleeves and aimed it at Roll's crotch.
If he used a short blade or other hidden weapon, even if Gervis activated his fighting spirit, his speed would still be slower than that of Roll, who was at the peak of the silver level.
But this short musket is different. Although the damage of the musket to high-level knights like Roll is not as great as that of the short blade, the speed of the bullet allows Gervis to achieve his sneak attack purpose, and Gervis attacks the most vulnerable part of a man.
As Gervis pulled the trigger, the musket exploded with a bang, and smoke and flames instantly sprayed out from the exquisite bell-shaped mouth of the short musket, and thick smoke billowed out at the scene.
Without any pause, Gervis fired his musket and quickly used his fighting spirit to knock away the arms of the two soldiers, then flew towards Alice.
Just as Gervis was flying out, he suddenly felt a heavy blow on his back, as if he was hit by a train, and the pain was excruciating. However, Gervis did not dare to pay attention to the severe pain in his back, but followed the force and fell towards Alice at a faster speed.
Alice's face was as pale as death, she never expected such a situation to happen. While she was still in a daze, Gervis threw herself into his arms.
Gervis held Alice in his left hand and kicked Lina with his right foot, kicking Lina into the pool beside him.
After doing all this, Gervis rolled on the ground twice with Alice in his arms, then stood up quickly and broke through to the front.
"Ah! Stop them!"
"I'm going to kill you, you bastard!"
It was only when Gervis pulled the trigger that Roll noticed Gervis's unusual behavior, but when he wanted to stop him, it was too late. The musket had already been fired. Roll could only change his moves halfway and kicked Gervis hard on the back.
However, after this kick, Roll felt a piercing pain in his crotch, and then he could no longer feel the existence of his "five limbs".
Roll first let out a scream, then his bloodshot eyes, he endured the pain and wanted to chase after Gervis and Alice, but he was hit in the crotch by a musket, and even a silver knight could not ignore this damage. Roll felt excruciating pain with every step he took.
In the end, Luo Er could only chase while shouting angrily at all his subordinates.
In fact, there was no need for Rawl to shout, because the seven or eight soldiers in front had already moved, drawing their swords to intercept Gervis and the other man, and slashing at them continuously.
"unicorn!"
These soldiers were all titled knights. Although some of them were not at a high level, even the weakest was at the same level as Gervis.
Gervis didn't dare to fight head-on, so he could only hold Alice and barely avoid the hacking of several people, then changed direction and broke through to the other side.
In order not to arouse Rawl's suspicion, Gervis did not come with a sword, so now there was no possibility of blocking.
"hiss"
"Roll, you traitor, die!"
"My Lord Earl, here we come!"
Fortunately, Gandalf and others finally arrived nearby at this time.
Because they were worried about being discovered by Rawl, Gandalf and the others were waiting in the distance. The signal for their attack was the sound of Gervis' gunfire.
A few people saw from afar that Gervis was being chased and hacked by more than a dozen people. They were very anxious. They used their fighting spirit to rush over here and shouted loudly, trying to disrupt the minds of the rebellious soldiers.
“Almost there, almost there!”
Facing more than a dozen people chasing and hacking at him, Gervis could be said to have used up all his strength. Fortunately, he was also a mid-level bronze knight, otherwise, two or three long swords would have slashed at him in the previous second.
Gervais had already seen the unicorn running wildly in front of him. The unicorn was running at full speed much faster than Gandalf and others, which gave Gervais hope of being rescued.
puff!
Just when the unicorn was about to rush to Gervis, Gervis was hit by a sword on the back. Gervis only felt a coolness on his back, but no other feeling, because his back was numb from Roll's kick.
hiss~
The unicorn came in front of Gervis and let out a long hiss, then lowered its head and passed by Gervis, and crashed heavily into the group of pursuers behind Gervis, scaring several people so much that they dodged repeatedly. However, one of the pursuers was unable to dodge in time and was pierced through the neck by the unicorn.
The unicorn shook its head and threw the pursuer away, then made a beautiful turn and chased after Gervis.
When Gervis saw the unicorn running back to him, he reached out and grabbed the unicorn's reins without thinking, holding Alice and riding on the unicorn, while the sound of swords clashing could be heard behind Gervis.
Gandalf and the others finally confronted Rowle and the others.
"Are you okay?"
After sitting on the unicorn and making sure that he was finally safe, Gervis lowered his head to look at Alice, who had been in his arms.
"It's okay, but I was hit on the back by Luo Er, which injured my abdomen. He also gave me wind bell flower potion. Now I can't move!"
After being carried onto the unicorn's back by Gervis, Alice had been looking at Gervis with complicated eyes. When she saw Gervis suddenly lower his head, Alice immediately averted her gaze and answered softly.
"It's all right! It's all right!"
Gervis heaved a sigh of relief immediately. As the saying goes, beautiful women are often doomed to a tragic fate. Gervis had a good impression of Alice. He was just worried whether Alice would prove the proverb from his previous life. Now it seemed that Alice was really fine and just needed to rest for a while.
Thanks to the book friend "Wang Tuzhe" for the reward!!!
Some people said that the previous chapter was a bit toxic, so I posted this chapter earlier! I will wait for feedback and make some changes based on the situation.
