Chapter Thirty-Five: Infiltration
Although the situation on the mainland is chaotic, the security of each main city is still good. As the saying goes, "those who steal a hook will be executed, and those who steal a country will become nobles." Under the severe punishment system, ordinary civilians do not dare to do bad things, and no one wants to become a slave. As for the privileged class of nobility, no matter what they do, it is far beyond the scope of security, and security only applies to civilians and slaves.
The highest power in each city is firmly held by the lords, and in this world, strength is the only criterion for testing everything. Each lord is not alone, with countless professionals united around them. The power possessed by the lords can easily destroy other cities, even the joint resistance of all villages. Only other lords can truly threaten the lords.
As for the common people and slaves who are oppressed, there must be dissatisfaction, but the world's system has given them a way out, a channel to vent their dissatisfaction. Want to become a privileged class? Work hard and cultivate yourself, when you have outstanding abilities, the privileged class will gladly open the door to welcome you, for stability, for the safe transmission of their privileges, the privileged class does not care about having one more partner. If you are bullied all your life, it is because you are incompetent, why can others become excellent professionals, but you cannot? You deserve to be bullied! If you want to resist, that's your fault, resolutely overthrow!
However, the situation in Beit Alliance is special. There is no supreme ruler here, and the lords of the four guard cities are mutually suspicious and competing with each other. What they want to avoid is large-scale bloodshed, but small-scale struggles have never stopped, and even they themselves are often the behind-the-scenes masterminds who provoke the struggle, which has laid the foundation for the chaos in Beit Alliance.
The security team of the Baitman League is the busiest, most tired, largest in number and also the most dangerous. Even at midnight, they still have to insist on patrolling.
In a small alley in one of the eleven towns, a head suddenly popped out and quietly observed the departing security team. After the security team had turned into another street, the figure made a hand gesture backwards.
Xian Ni Er jumped onto the wall, carefully observing her surroundings. Her smooth golden hair was still very eye-catching in the dark night. Han Jin had already argued with her many times about this issue, strongly demanding that Xian Ni Er tie up her hair and wear a black cloth, but she refused without giving a reason...
"Are we... really going to do this?" Michelle asked hesitantly in the darkness.
"Do you think we still have a way out?" Sasu asked in a low voice.
"Don't worry, George only has some warriors protecting him, and his guard captain is just a high-ranking swordsman, it's fine." Han Jin said calmly.
"Is he just a high-ranking swordsman?" Mo Xinko said discontentedly: "What does that mean?!"
"Your self-esteem is still quite strong." Han Jin couldn't help but laugh, and the previous sentence did indeed have a hint of satire.
"You..." Mo Xinkai was so angry that his teeth itched, but considering what he had to do now, he could only hold back his temper for the time being.
"Can you shut up?" Xian Ni'er's icy voice came from above, her hearing was extremely good, but the people below were making a racket, causing great interference to her.
Everyone fell silent, and Han Jin suddenly felt that after the battle during the day, except for Michel, their confidence had inflated a lot. They could even knock down warriors, so why worry about small swordsmen? Now everyone's emotions were not only excited but also arrogant, which was not a good sign.
Xian Ni'er moved stealthily along the wall, hiding behind a tree, then slowly took down the longbow from her back, aimed in one direction, and with a flick of her finger, an arrow flew out silently, followed by a safety signal.
"Sasori, you and Miharu, Steirberg stay here, ready to respond at any time." Han Jin said softly.
"Ah, don't worry." Sasori nodded. As a magician, he wasn't suited for this kind of sneak attack, and once he released his magic, it would alert others. George's son-in-law, the mayor of Rappeltown, was a high-ranking warrior, and if Rappelt came with the security team, they'd be in trouble.
Mo Xinkē lightly jumped, landed on the wall, although he was tall and big, his movements were extremely agile, silently flipped onto the wall, then extended one hand down.
Han Jin's toes touched the ground, using Mo Xinke's pulling force to jump onto the wall head, and then two people approached Xian Ni'er one after another.
Perhaps George never thought that anyone would dare to defy him, the defense in the courtyard was very lax, and three people jumped down from the wall of the courtyard, feeling their way forward for more than 30 meters without seeing a single person.
Mozhixiao, who was walking in the middle, had just turned around a fake hill and suddenly touched something wet and slippery, which scared him. He looked closely and saw that someone was sitting in the recess of the fake hill, with a black arrow shaft still exposed on his neck.
Bad luck! Mo Xinkai muttered to himself and stretched out his hand to wipe the corpse vigorously.
Han Jin followed up and looked at the corpse, then turned his head to look at the distant wall and said in a low voice: "This is a dead end..."
Mo Xinkai's mysterious smile, lowered his voice and spat out a syllable: "Eight!"
"What's wrong?" Han Jin didn't understand.
Mo Xinke didn't answer and quickly caught up with Sannie.
They walked through the entire outer courtyard without being disturbed, and once they passed the corner gate, they entered the inner courtyard, where George and his wives rested. Mo Xing Ke leaned against the corner gate to observe for a moment, then said in a low voice, "This is indeed the place that little guy mentioned, but George has so many wives, how do we know which one he's with? We can't possibly search room by room, can we?"
Xian Ni turned her head to look at Han Jin, and Han Jin replied in a low voice: "Where there are guards, George is there."
Xian Ni'er raised her index finger to her lips and listened quietly for a moment, then pointed to the left. The three of them moved forward along the small path in single file.
George's life should be very simple, heaven knows what he is saving money for, not to mention the magic lamp, there are only a few oil lamps, let alone the outer courtyard, in the entire inner courtyard, only two places have several oil lamps lit.
At the end of the path, there was a very spacious courtyard. Under the illumination of the lanterns, they could clearly see four guards gathered in front of the corner gate, whispering about something. Xanier led them here because she heard their voices.
"What can we do?" Xanthe said in a very small voice. The grassland in front of them was very spacious, and they couldn't reach it at all.
"Disguise yourself as a woman and lure them over." Mo Xinko whispered in Han's ear.
Xian Ni'er almost burst out laughing, this little treasure! No matter when, he could always make jokes, but she soon couldn't laugh anymore, because Han Jin's gaze was circling around her.
