Chapter 206 The battle begins

The four figures blocking the way were Severi, Michelle, Ross, and a very thin, short, hunched-over male.

Severine squinted at Scarlett, "Hand over the key."

Scarlett took out the key, waved it in front of her, and said arrogantly, "No."

"You're asking for it!" Michelle gritted her teeth and lunged at Scarlett first.

His slightly plump figure cast a dark shadow in the air, looking imposing!

But he was quickly overpowered by another dark figure!

Vivian, now a leopard, moved with lightning speed, rushing out from behind Scarlett, pouncing on Michelle, and pinning her firmly under her feet.

"Vivian! What are you doing!"

Half of Michelle's face was buried in the icy soil.

She never expected that a Cheng Yaojin would suddenly appear out of nowhere, and it was even one of her own companions. Her eyes reddened, and she roared angrily.

"Isn't it clear what she's doing?"

"They betrayed Sack," Shiverri said coldly.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't put it so harshly."

Francis emerged from another spot, her tall, slender figure graceful and beautiful. She spread her hands and said with a grin, "We have never been Sack's subordinates, so how can there be any talk of betrayal?"

Ross curled his thin lips into a smile, and a faint yellow spiritual energy flickered between his brows. He said coldly, "Why waste words with them? Kill everyone except the one with the key."

"this is a good idea."

Sivir agreed with Ross's statement, smiled slightly on his cold face, and transformed into a snow-white giant wolf on the spot.

Orange-colored spiritual energy, like a raging fire, surrounded her.

Rachel, Iveney, Bronn, Skinny Monkey, and Black Tiger stepped forward one after another, blocking Scarlett's group and confronting Siviri and the others.

Rachel said, "Scarlett, don't forget what you promised me."

Scarlett gripped the keys tightly in her hand. "Don't worry, it definitely won't happen."

Skinny Monkey sighed, his withered body shivering in the cold wind. He glanced at Zheke and said, "I'm sorry for how I treated you before. I had no choice. In our line of work, if you're not ruthless and have some vicious methods, people won't listen to you and you won't be easy to manage."

Dzeko: "It's okay."

Scarlett glanced at Bloom as well. "Sorry, I cheated that day. You're actually very strong; I couldn't beat you at all."

Braum gave a haughty "humph," "I already knew that, I'm the champion!"

The two sides managed to exchange a few words.

Aphne couldn't take it anymore. She pulled out the cigarettes Scarlett had given her from her pocket. There was only one left. She lit it and put it in her mouth. "Hurry up and go. What's with all this nonsense? Just take good care of our people!"

Scarlett nodded and led Mo Ting and the others away via another route.

They had barely taken a step when they heard the sound of flesh tearing in the wind.

Scarlett didn't stop; she kept walking forward.

Walk to Lanxi Street.

Open the tavern door and step into the tunnel that had been dug long ago.

Sack's released mental energy was still chasing after Scarlett, but it would always pause and maintain a slight distance when it touched her.

This made Scarlett and the others feel cold, but the cold wind never bothered them.

"Cousin, you're finally back."

Anne hugged Scarlett, her eyes slightly moist.

Scarlett hasn't shown her face since the Jiajia Theater burned down. She only calls her to reassure her and to ask her to lead the beastmen to dig a tunnel.

She didn't know what her cousin was doing, so she could only follow along.

The tunnel is now finished, and my cousin has returned.

very nice.

Her anxiety could finally be relieved.

Manchusa emerged from the darkness. "Scarlett, where's my sister?"

Scarlett is very good at lying; she can spout many lies fluently and logically.

But right now.

Looking into those eyes that still shone brightly in the darkness, Scarlett paused for a long time, not knowing why, and remained silent.

She could only hold Manchusa's hand and say, "Your sister is busy right now and will be able to come later."

Manchusa frowned, a hint of worry flashing across her pretty face, but she trusted her sister's abilities.

If my sister says not to worry, then there's nothing to worry about.

She nodded, believing Scarlett's words.

"I said, who exactly are you people?! I haven't had a single good thing happen to me since I met you!"

Murgard chose a large rock to sit on, his clothes soaking wet and his lips white from the cold.

He wrung out his clothes while complaining.

Today was truly a miserable day.

Assassination, imprisonment, family heirloom stolen, being dragged into a river.

One thing after another, it just keeps happening. Now they're hiding in this dark, sunless place.

They've worn his old bones down so much!

What kind of people are these?!

They're even more thuggish than robbers.

Harrison came over holding an oil lamp. "Great-grandfather."

When Murgard heard his voice, he was startled at first, then looked up in disbelief, "Harrison, what are you doing here?"

Harrison handed a blanket to Murgard. "Great-Grandpa, I've been here all along."

Harrison's room leads directly to the tavern on Lanxi Street.

During this period, he would come over every night.

That time, Scarlett went to see Mo Ting and took a liking to the design of the underground labyrinth of Harrison's Tavern. She wanted Harrison to design one exactly as it was.

The underground labyrinth was designed by him personally, and it even had traps.

He has enjoyed tinkering with these things since he was very young.

Unfortunately, his great-grandfather forbade it, and only his grandmother and mother supported him.

A special plot of land will be developed in the basement of the small courtyard at home for him to play on.

He has a great sense of space; every maze he designs is tricky and bizarre, and small animals can take a long time to climb out of them.

Unfortunately, my great-grandfather didn't like it.

They said he was indulging in frivolous pursuits and wasting his life.

They carried water and flooded his entire maze.

When I grow up.

He secretly opened a tavern.

Hiding the maze beneath the tavern, I could go in and lie down for a while when I was bored or sad, as a way to make up for the lack of childhood memories.

Scarlett was the third person, after her grandmother and mother, to appreciate the maze he had built.

So when Scarlett suggested designing one for her too.

Harrison agreed without hesitation.

With the people Scarlett gave him, they designed a huge maze by intersecting the underground streets of Lanxi Street and Landon Street.

The maze has eight exits.

Each exit is designed with many branching paths.

Without a map, no one can get out.

Murgard looked at Harrison with a cold gaze. Even if he was stupid, he understood now. Pointing at Scarlett, he asked Harrison, "You've been working for her all along?"

Harrison glanced at Scarlett, but didn't say anything, which was taken as tacit agreement.

Mergard continued to question, "Was it you who betrayed me, you brat?"

"No, great-grandfather, I did not betray you."

When the word "betrayal" was mentioned, Harrison panicked and quickly explained, "Scarlett and I are friends, and I haven't said anything about you."

"How dare you quibble!"

Murgard kicked Harrison, knocking him to the ground, and yelled, "You little bastard, don't forget who raised you! You'd be dead by now without me! And now you dare to team up with outsiders to scheme against me! I'm going to kill you today!"

Scarlett listened to Murgard's words, silently walked to his side, and kicked him aside with a flying kick. "He's a little bastard, and what are you? An old bastard? While I'm in a good mood, you'd better keep your tail between your legs, or I'll throw you out."

Murgard is a bully who preys on the weak and fears the strong. He dares to get angry at Harrison, but he would never dare to say anything to Scarlett.

Upon hearing that he was going to be thrown out.

He immediately bowed and scraped, repeatedly apologizing, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it was my fault, please forgive me, I will never dare to do it again."

Riley helped Harrison up.

Harrison said quietly, "Thank you."

Holst counted the number of people.

Anne, Anne's beast husband, the male who stayed at the Ya'anna Theater, and Matthew and Mennie.

The number of people is correct.

There are neither many nor few people.

They walked together deeper into the maze.

Even if someone breaks in, this maze can hold them off for a while, giving them enough time to fight back and escape.

of course.

Scarlett never considered running away.

Now that things have come to this, there's no way to escape further.

If I'm really that unlucky and get found...

She has a second plan.
