BXBX NOVEL Chapter 18: killing intent
The place where the sword was stabbed seemed to have a small fountain, with dark red blood spurting out continuously.
Patter!
A person\'s eyes are unwilling to fall down, and this person is the leader.
From the beginning to the end, Xiao En never let down his vigilance against the man in charge. Relaxing his vigilance in front of the enemy is no different from courting death. How could he make such a low-level mistake? The moment he was distracted was just what the man in charge thought That\'s all.
At the same time when the leading man drew his sword towards Sean, Sean\'s sword also moved, even before him.
Originally, Sean wanted to ask the instigator\'s situation in as much detail as possible, but the other party didn\'t cooperate and wanted to attack him while he was asking. He had no choice but to strike ahead of time.
However, from what the other party said, he was almost 70% sure that the person who ordered these robbers to attack the Campbell caravan was Benson. Can\'t remember anyone.
When Sean returned to the place where Campbell\'s caravan was, all the robbers had already fled, leaving only a few bodies of dead robbers.
On the other hand, Campbell’s caravan was full of sadness. The guards of the company were all wounded. Some were bandaging themselves, while others were bandaging their companions.
When they saw the dozen or so Campbell caravan guards lying in a pool of blood, their eyes were obviously sad. The dozen or so people who were chatting and laughing with them just a moment ago, but now they are lying in the cold forever. on the ground.
"Master Sean, you are back, are you not injured?"
Seeing Sean\'s return, Butler Pound hurried up to greet him, looked Sean up and down, and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that he was not injured.
Sean\'s appearance both surprised him and worried him. He was surprised by Sean\'s "Soldier from Heaven" and worried that Sean would be injured. Now I feel at ease.
"Master Sean!"
The rest of the Campbell\'s guards also greeted Sean one after another, different from the plain address in the past. At this time, their voices were full of awe and gratitude.
There is no doubt that it was Sean who saved them. If Sean hadn\'t appeared, they would have died without a doubt.
At the same time, they were surprised again.
They have a deep understanding of the horror of this group of robbers. They are ruthless and experienced in fighting. He couldn\'t block even a single sword, and several guards of the firm died in his hands.
But it was such a group of powerful robbers who were actually repulsed by Sean, especially after learning that Sean had killed the leader of the bandits, the awe reached the extreme.
In the past, although they knew that Sean was studying at Neo Knight Academy and that it was the best knight academy in the Kingdom of Carlo, they didn\'t have a real sense of how strong Sean was. concept.
Without a doubt, strong, very strong.
"Um."
Shawn nodded, looking at the Campbell caravan guards lying in a pool of blood, feeling a burst of self-blame in his heart.
After all, his vigilance is too low. If he finds that Benson is staring at Butler Pound maliciously, he immediately becomes alert and reminds Butler Pound to be careful, these people may not die.
Although it has been more than a month since I came to this world, the "lack of crisis awareness" formed in the legal society in the previous life has not been completely corrected.
He could not help telling himself secretly that the world now is no longer the peaceful world it used to be. This world is a world full of killing and being killed. Killing may happen at any time. Who did it.
"Don\'t blame yourself, you\'ve done a good job."
Seeing the self-blame in Sean\'s eyes, Butler Pound patted Sean on the shoulder and said.
"If you hadn\'t arrived in time, all of us here would have died. As for them, it can only be said that this is fate. From the moment they applied for the guard of Campbell Firm, they have already been mentally prepared. Don\'t worry, I will report to you when I go back. Master, they will not treat their families badly."
Sean had little to do with the rest of the matter, and it was all handled by Butler Pound.
He is an old man who has really seen the wind and rain, and he has long been familiar with this kind of thing.
Comforted the injured guards, buried the bodies of the robbers on the spot, and freed up two carriages to move the more than ten Campbell firm guards who died in battle on top of them.
Soon, the caravan set off again under the **** of Sean, but this time the destination was no longer Asai City, but the capital.
Most of the guards were broken, and there were enemies lurking in the dark. After discussing with Sean, Butler Pound decided to return to the capital for a few days to recuperate and hire enough people before returning to Asai City.
The sun was setting and the sky was getting darker. In a mountain forest near the capital, a young man wrapped in a cloak and covering his face was standing there walking back and forth.
It was he who paid the robbers to attack Campbell\'s firm, and this place was where he agreed to meet the robbers and pay the other half of the money.
The agreed time was in the afternoon, but he had been waiting here for more than two hours, but the robbers were still coming. Naturally, he couldn\'t know the result of the attack on Campbell\'s caravan.
In the end, he could only stomp his feet unhappily, turn around and return to the capital. In a short while, the gate of the city will be closed, and he still has class tomorrow morning, so naturally he can\'t wait any longer.
He didn’t know, even if he waited here overnight, he would never get the robbers. The robbers who participated had already been frightened, so how dare they come to take the remaining half of the money.
No matter how good the money is, the leader is dead. How far these robbers are hiding now, they dare to appear near the capital.
After returning to the capital with Campbell\'s caravan, Sean separated from them, and he couldn\'t help with the rest. Butler Pound was better at things like rest and hiring mercenaries, and he also Need to go back to college.
Walking on the way back to the academy, Sean was overwhelmed with killing intent several times, but he finally endured it.
First of all, he wasn\'t completely sure that the person who invited the robbers was Benson. After all, even the leader of the robbers didn\'t see who he was.
Secondly, as a student of Neo Knight Academy, if Benson dies, the academy will investigate. If it is found out, the punishment will be extremely severe.
There used to be a noble boy who secretly killed a commoner boy and dumped his body in the wilderness, but he was finally found out by the academy. This noble boy was finally disarmed and kicked out of the academy. Obviously, the protection of the students of Neo Knight Academy , is done extremely rigorously.
Thinking about it, I think it is normal. If the commoners with excellent aptitudes are all attacked and killed by the nobles, how can the Neo Knights Academy train excellent knights?
This is also the reason why the Knight Academy did not prevent them from going to the ring, but made a rule that they cannot be killed or disabled.
"It seems that I can only bear it!"
Sean sighed slightly in his heart, and finally gave up his plan to assassinate Benson secretly.
Although Neo Knight Academy might not be able to find out that it was his killer, he dared not gamble.
The prospect of his life is not comparable to that of Benson\'s mere life. In his opinion, it is completely worthless.
Besides, it is impossible for the Neo Knight Academy to protect Benson for the rest of his life. When Benson graduates from the Neo Knight Academy, his relationship with the Neo Knight Academy will be considered over.
At this time, even if Sean killed Benson on the spot, Neo Knights would not do anything to Sean.
"However, it can\'t make him feel better."
Thinking of what Benson had done to the original owner of this body before, a sneer appeared on the corner of Sean\'s mouth.
Although he can\'t kill Benson, he can trouble Benson. As for whether he has that kind of strength, he doesn\'t have to worry about it at all.
Half a month ago, he was able to defeat Benson because of Benson\'s underestimation of the enemy and luck, but now he doesn\'t need it. He is absolutely sure to defeat Benson head-on. In the past few months, his strength has increased a lot. It has to be said that the talent of high-level knights is really an extremely terrifying talent.
