"It's a bit difficult to get rid of these two guys without making any noise. There will inevitably be power fluctuations when we take action, which is a bit troublesome."
Livia rubbed her forehead with a headache, her brain working rapidly.
Whether you want to go to the rooftop or go downstairs, you have to go through this staircase. Of course, there is another way that does not require taking the stairs. You can climb up along the wall through the window of the room. If you have the ability, you can naturally climb up.
However, Livia thought carefully about the windows on each floor that were four or five meters apart, and gave up the idea.
Putting aside whether he would be the first and last demon hunter to fall to death in the world, the only thing he knew how to climb was that he could only rely on his own strength to climb up, and any slight accident would be the end of him.
Whoosh~Swish~"Uh..." Hmm?
what happened?
Suddenly, an extremely subtle sound was heard from behind the corner. If it weren't for the demon hunter's hearing that was far superior to that of ordinary people, Livia estimated that he would not be able to hear anything.
Hearing the strange sound suddenly coming from behind the corner, Livia cautiously stuck half of her head out.
What he saw was two men in black robes being carried and slowly falling to the ground. The chest of one of the men in black robes had a shining silver sword blade shining under the firelight, and blood was gradually sliding down the blade. Livia's eyes became solemn.
Is it Shadow Panther Knight?
Or say?
Looking at the figure shrouded in darkness that suddenly appeared behind the man in black robe, Livia's brain was working rapidly, and his right hand quickly grasped the hilt of the sword behind him.
Although the person who came killed the two cultists and was not in the same group as the Blood Mist Sect, it was not certain whether he was in the same group as himself. Livia did not let down his guard until he found out.
The black figure that suddenly appeared quietly placed the bodies of the two men in black robes on the ground.
Puff~ The person who came gently pulled out the sword that was stuck in the black-robed man's chest, stood up straight, held the sword horizontally and looked in the direction of Livia.
"Um?
Did you find me?"
Livia made eye contact with the figure shrouded in darkness. In Livia's eyes, there was no emotion or fluctuation in the eyes of the person in the darkness.
Seeing such a pair of eyes, Livia felt a chill running down her spine.
Ziz~zheng!
Livia quickly walked out from behind the wall, instinctively drew the silver sword behind her, and assumed a fighting stance.
The figure shrouded in darkness did not utter a word, and even his eyes did not show any emotion. The moment he saw Livia assuming a fighting stance, the tip of his sword was already pointing at Livia.
Just as the battle was about to break out, a faint voice suddenly came from behind the figure shrouded in darkness.
"profit……
Livia?
There was a hint of uncertainty in his voice.
Hearing someone calling her name, Livia shifted her gaze from the figure opposite her and looked towards the staircase where the voice came from.
He saw a man in black armor who seemed to blend into the darkness quietly walking out from the stairs and looking at him with a scrutinizing gaze.
“Are you Livia?”
The figure walking out from the stairs asked again in a low voice, still with an uncertain tone.
Um?
Listening to this familiar voice, as if she had heard it somewhere before, Livia frowned slightly and searched through her memory to find where she had heard this voice before.
"Puro?"
Livia asked back with some uncertainty. He didn't recognize many people in this world now, and even fewer had heard the voice. He quickly found the owner of the voice in his memory.
The image of the taciturn Cavaliers captain who had always followed Deron automatically emerged in my mind.
There was silence for a few seconds, and then a steady voice came.
"Why are you here?"
This sentence was an admission that he was the captain of the Cavaliers under Deron, Pro.
"Huh..." Livia breathed a sigh of relief, and the silver sword in her hand slowly dropped. It was 'one of our own'.
"Is it okay to talk here?"
Livia calmed down and looked at Puro and asked in a small voice.
The figure in black armor glanced at Livia, then looked at the figure in front of him shrouded in darkness.
"Go on, I'll talk to him for a moment."
The figure shrouded in darkness did not respond, but simply put down the sword in his hand, but his eyes were still fixed on Livia, as if he would attack him in an instant if he made any wrong movement.
Livia felt a sharp sensation coming from his body, which made him feel uncomfortable instinctively and he felt insecure.
The black-armored figure looked away from the figure in front of him and pointed behind Livia.
"A little inside?"
Livia nodded, turned and walked towards the corridor she came from, sheathed her sword and pointed it at him with her back to show him that she had no hostility.
The sharp feeling coming from behind constantly reminded Livia that the person shrouded in darkness was still staring at him. Livia was a little helpless. After all, it was indeed very strange that he suddenly appeared here, but he had no choice.
but……
The figure shrouded in darkness should be a member of the Shadow Guard. Livia remembered the dying man who suddenly appeared on the grassland and reported information to Delon.
Step, step, step...
After walking a little further inside, Livia stopped and turned to look at the black-armored figure following behind her.
Seeing him stop, the black-armored figure took a small step and paused as well.
The two people maintained a distance of five meters, which was a "relatively safe" distance that could effectively prevent someone from suddenly jumping up and attacking.
Livia knew that the other party was still on guard against her. After all, in this situation, she appeared here silently, which would be weird for anyone.
Oh, it’s hard to explain...
I sighed helplessly in my heart.
The two of them fell into a strange silence, and neither of them knew how to start.
Finally, it was the black-armored figure who spoke first and broke the silence.
"you……
Why are you here? "
"Do you believe me when I say I was teleported here by accident?"
Livia had a wry smile on her face.
The black-armored figure said nothing, but his hand was on the sword at his waist.
Seeing this, Livia knew that if there was no definite explanation, the other party would most likely take action.
He put away the expression on his face and looked seriously at the black-armored figure opposite him.
"I was brought here by a monster called the Bloodthirsty Crow Demon when I was fighting in the military camp in the north of the city."
"The monster and I were both enveloped by a blood-colored vortex and teleported. When we woke up, we were already in a room in the corridor."
As he spoke, Livia lifted up the leather armor that was not fastened to begin with, revealing the bandage on his abdomen. A trace of blood had appeared on the bandage at some point, probably because some blood had spilled out before.
Looking at the bandage on Livia's abdomen, then looking up at Livia, the black-armored figure lowered his head slightly, as if thinking about the credibility of Livia's words.
After another moment of silence, the man in black armor spoke.
"How is the North City Military Camp doing now?"
"When I was teleported away, it was almost over. A cult leader wearing a blood-stained robe escaped with serious injuries, and a few bat-winged demons were surrounded by soldiers, so I guess they are not a big deal."
Livia was stunned for a moment and then quickly replied.
The black-armored figure nodded.
"Then stop here for now. The rest will be decided by Lord Delong."
Livia heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed that she had been trusted reluctantly, but it would still require further confirmation. But that was true. In this case, she had to worry that he might be a member of the cult.
It will be on the shelves tomorrow, and I will try to update more today.
