Chapter 128 Chaos
Chapter 128 Chaos
"Hey, what's wrong over there?"
A patrolling guard narrowed his eyes as he looked into the dark alley. He slowly moved closer to investigate the situation inside.
However, before he could even enter, a person rushed out of the alley in a panic.
boom!
The man slammed into the guard. The sudden impact did not cause the guard to fall, but only made him sway. Instead, the man who had suddenly rushed out fell to the ground.
"What's the rush?"
The sudden collision naturally annoyed him, but seeing the person lying on the ground, he suppressed his annoyance and reached out to help him up.
Snapped!
However, something unexpected happened: the man suddenly slapped his hand away, then abruptly stood up and shouted:
"The guards are arresting people! The guards are arresting people!"
"The city lord wants us to perform a terrifying ritual!"
His appearance was genuine; fear was evident on his face. He stumbled towards the crowd, desperately needing the sense of security they provided.
This staged accident left the guards completely bewildered. After a brief moment of stunned silence, they became somewhat annoyed.
How could this person be like this? I kindly helped him up, and he tries to frame me.
Feeling the stares from those around him, he felt annoyed and was about to explain when he was interrupted by two people who rushed out of the alley.
boom!boom!
The two men seemed to have a tacit understanding as they crashed into him, and under their impact, he was unable to withstand it and fell to the ground.
thump!
What are you doing!
A look of pain flashed across the face of the fallen guard. Before he could figure out what was going on, he heard the two men shouting again.
"The guards are arresting people! The guards are arresting people! Lord City..."
What nonsense are these two talking about! I've already been knocked down, how am I supposed to catch you?
He was about to get up to check the situation when, as he turned over and looked up, he noticed several more people walking out of the alley.
Most of them were dressed as civilians, but a few others were strange, as they were wearing the same guard uniforms as them!
The people who escaped from the alley all had expressions of fear, while the guards behind them were in a capture position.
What is this doing?
Is this someone from our team?
I don't think I've ever seen this before.
The fallen guard was completely bewildered. He still had no idea what had happened. Not only that, but the people who appeared to be his colleagues suddenly said something that left him utterly confused.
"Arrest him quickly! If he gets away, the city lord will be furious!"
"If the ceremony isn't completed, you and my brothers will be in big trouble!"
What ceremony? What are they talking about?
The guard who had fallen to the ground finally couldn't take it anymore. He prepared to get up and find out what was going on, but just then, a fist smashed into his face.
boom!
The guard stumbled from the impact. He turned around and saw a civilian who had just run out of the alley staring at him in fear, fists raised.
"I will not go back with you!"
"I'll fight you!"
He shouted something that left the guards bewildered, and before they could even react, he charged forward with a punch.
The guards reacted quickly and captured him; clearly, these men were not as physically capable as him.
"What are you doing? Explain yourself clearly. Why are you attacking me? Do you know what laws you're breaking?"
The guard tried to get information from the civilian, but the civilian ignored him and just struggled silently.
"you!"
The guard felt a surge of annoyance, and just as he was about to take the civilian back for interrogation, another person launched a flying kick at him!
boom!
The sudden attack knocked the guard to the ground, and the man immediately straddled him and began to attack him relentlessly. Another man quickly followed up, and the guard was unable to get up for a while due to the barrage of punches and kicks.
"What are you doing!"
A shout came from above, and a patrol of guards, seeing their comrade being beaten, immediately wanted to come forward to help.
But this suited the wishes of some people perfectly, and suddenly a group of people mixed in with the crowd shouted:
"They're coming to arrest us again!"
"Everyone, act quickly! If you don't act now, you'll be the next ones arrested!"
After saying that, he took the lead and charged straight at the guards, accompanied by several other people who were also shouting.
"really?"
"Is the city lord really going to arrest us?"
"Of course, the city lord is so obsessed with immortality that he wants to use us ordinary civilians as test subjects!"
Those who were unaware of the situation were still somewhat hesitant. Although they and the city lord had been suspicious of each other these days, it hadn't come to the point of fighting yet.
This scene was witnessed by Yu, who was mixed in with the crowd. Upon seeing this, she immediately took out the skull that the middle-aged man had given her.
hum!
As if sensing something, the skull's eye sockets instantly emitted a red light.
An imperceptible shockwave spread from the center of the feather, instantly enveloping the crowd on the street. Those who had been hesitant were all startled, and then...
"That's right, we can't just sit here and wait to die!"
"Everyone, hurry up and take action! Defeat these bastards! Only then will we avoid being caught!"
"But......."
"No buts. Just think about what will happen to Zelin!"
The shockwave from the skull caused the previously hesitant crowd to become agitated.
In just a few seconds, they sorted out their thoughts and instantly regarded the guards as enemies. The result was predictable: they swarmed forward and began to beat and shove the guards.
The guard who had first noticed something was wrong had now overturned the two men who were on top of him, but when he got up, he was met with an incredibly chaotic scene.
The guards and civilians were fighting. The civilians were like madmen; no matter how the guards tried to stop them, they wouldn't stop punching and kicking.
what on earth is it!
Yes! Those two guards!
He suddenly remembered the two suspicious colleagues, but when he looked back, they were nowhere to be seen; they had vanished without a trace.
Damn!
Those two guys are definitely up to something!
The guard who realized this wanted to turn around and tell everyone about the discovery, but he was knocked down with a punch as soon as he turned around, followed by a barrage of punches and kicks from several civilians.
He was beaten and curled up, and at that moment he understood something.
Oops!
People became increasingly frenzied, and the chaos intensified, gradually showing a tendency to spread.
Meanwhile, at the same time that this chaos broke out, Fituos, far away in the city lord's mansion, was unaware of the situation. He was leisurely lying on a deck chair, sipping red wine, and rejoicing at the departure of the Eagle Guards.
What he was unaware of was that, not long afterward, two uninvited guests would arrive at his residence.
