Ark Traveler, I want to take a day off today too

At this time, the Ursus man patted the old knight’s shoulder in an unpleasant tone: “Old man, it’s time for you to admit your age.” Then he extended his hand to Linley: “Koval, a former senior craftsman, is now a similar type to that guy.”

"Asshole, you brought out my arthritis in the photos!"

"Bullshit, it's obviously my fault for not taking good care of myself, don't blame me for everything!" Then the two old men started fighting again in the corner.

“The old man is still quite energetic.” Linley exclaimed, and Maria beside him smiled faintly: “They have always been like this. Mr. Drege doesn’t need to worry about them.”

"My bar relies entirely on them to liven up the atmosphere." Martin held the wine glass with his metal arm and extended it towards the man, obviously wanting to clink glasses with him. "But today, it won't be counted as their compensation. It's also a good thing to get news about Margaret's child."

“I thought your bar was living off their compensation.” Linley smiled and clinked his glasses with the other party. “Miss, what’s your name?”

"Maria-Lin Guang." The girl sitting at the bar said softly: "Can I ask how my sister is doing recently?"

"She? She just completed an important mission recently. She should be resting and training now. It's up to you what you do with the two letters. After all, Lin Guang just asked me to bring them to you." The man shrugged and seemed quite indifferent. "Besides, she said that Knight Yao will come back here one day."

Then he glanced at Maria who was rubbing her fingers subconsciously: "I'll give you a piece of advice. If you really want to participate in that knight competition tournament, you must be prepared to bleed, and... you haven't killed anyone yet, Maria."

018. Casimir's night is so long~

"You haven't killed anyone yet, Maria."

Facing Linley’s question, Maria was stunned for a moment before she subconsciously nodded. The old craftsman beside her kept saying, “Not only humans, this girl has never killed horned beasts, tumor beasts, or pig beasts.”

“Master Korva, why are you exposing my shortcomings?” The girl said in a shy tone, but she quickly looked at Linley again: “Is this important?”

“It’s very important, because your enemies will not let you go just because you are from the Linguang family. On the contrary, some of them will choose to kill you.” Some of these guys can’t even be called knights, Lin Lei added silently in his heart, and then he drank the last sip of craft beer.

"I'll come back again if I have the chance later." He stood up and left. After all, all he had to do tonight was to say hello to Lin Guang's family and those old friends. It would take a long time to have a real in-depth communication.

Just as Linley was about to leave the bar, the old knight stopped him and said, “Boy, the night in Cavalleriaki is not as peaceful as you think.”

"Really? I understand. Thank you for your reminder."

......

"Why are you so interested in a guy who just checked into the Baiyinsong Hotel?" A woman named Filin with long blue hair and a longbow stood in front of the Blue Gold Lord Roy, and the only one who could communicate with Roy in this tone was another Blue Gold Lord.

What? You ask Xuantie? Those elusive guys never appeared in front of these two workers, and the workers of the workers were still working hard to complete their assassination work.

"After all, those were the people that Little Platinum went to look for before work today. It's just that the two people didn't look as familiar as I thought." Roy answered casually while flipping through the collected information, but soon his brows twisted together:

"This Drijer registered as a bounty hunter half a month ago? He can be called a bounty hunter?" Roy's eyes widened. "And what's wrong with this ID photo? Why does this guy's ID photo look like this?"

"What does she look like? Why does she have pockmarks on her face? Does Platinum like this?" The Qingjin leader, codenamed Monique, came up curiously. "She looks too ugly, doesn't she?"

"The guy I met didn't look like this, and I could feel that he noticed my presence... and even our Platinum Master couldn't do this." Roy closed his eyes and began to recall:

"It's an unreasonably large box and that... beautiful bow. It's a pity it's not my favorite style, but it might be nice to have it as a collection."

"That guy is also a shooter?"

"It seems so, but I don't know which one is better than our assassins from the No Helmet Alliance." Roy said and opened his eyes again: "But as for which camp or force that guy represents, it will take time to figure it out."

The man who had held the throne of the Blue Gold Lord for ten years showed the same exaggerated smile as before: "I have to report to the people above first, otherwise..."

"If you act rashly without permission, you will be killed."

"Ah, my, Monique, don't you hate me? Why are you still thinking about me at this time?"

The Filin woman carried her bow on her back and walked out of the house: "I do hate you, but if you die, who knows if the next Qing Jin will be even more annoying? At least I can tolerate your existence."

"This woman is still as unlovable as ever~" Roy sighed and then dialed the phone...

...the underground of Cavalleriachi...

If you were to go to a city to find a local gathering place for infected people, then those sewer pipes and underground areas would have more infected people than you could count in your lifetime. This was also the case in this Great Knight Territory, and most of the infected people had not met nobles like the Rat King, and they lived in this city as illegal infected people.

And every night, more or less, a group of illegally infected people died at the hands of the cleanup teams of the No-Hero Alliance.

"I say, Sona, those sweepers are coming!" A gray-haired Zalak girl wearing knight armor shouted loudly while setting up the cannon in her hand, while the red-haired Zalak girl who was leading the group had already drawn her rapier:

"We have to delay as much time as possible before Justina, Ivona and the others transfer the others!"

"Where can we find any shelter in this place except for the reinforced concrete pillars to delay us?!" The heavy artillery knight codenamed Huihao has already pulled the trigger, and her weapon, which is very similar to a rifle, emits terrifying flames and smoke!

"boom!"

"Whoosh whoosh!"

Before the girl could be happy, a series of arrows had already shot out from the smoke! Huihao did not hesitate, and the transparent shield made of composite materials was directly placed in front of her, and most of the arrows were broken before they could even penetrate the shield.

"Xiao Hui, there are too many of them! There is more than one sweeper team! We have to retreat quickly!" The knight girl named Sona screamed in a low voice while shooting down the arrows flying in the air with a rapier, "Otherwise, we won't be able to escape, and the Red Pine Knights will be in danger!"

"Oh, so you are a Knight Order. Are you the only two in your Knight Order?"

A slightly frivolous voice came from behind the approaching sweepers. Not only were the two knight girls stunned, but even the sweepers who thought they had won were also stunned:

"who?"

"Me? You don't need to know!" Before the strange voice fell, three arrows were shot out from the shadow of the drainage pipe nearby! More arrows followed, and each arrow was shot from a different angle, the corner of the wall, the ceiling, and even Sona felt that two arrows flew from behind her!

Twelve arrows were shot, and eleven sweepers of the No-Hero Alliance had fallen, leaving only one team leader - but his condition was not good either, as an arrow pierced through his thigh, and there was even poison on the arrow that was corroding his body.

"Who... are you?" He asked with difficulty before his life was completely drained by the poison. The communicator on his shoulder had been adjusted to transmission mode, and every word the other party said from then on would be heard by Lord Qingjin.

But unfortunately, he was answered by two pleasant gunshots! One hit the sweeper's forehead, and the other shattered his pager. Then the lazy voice came from behind the two girls:

"Your boss heard me talking not long ago? Do you think I'm stupid?"

019. Flametail and the Infected Knight

“Wow, a rapier… it does meet the standards of a knight, but what kind of personal cannon is that in the hand of this gray-haired girl?” Linley was surprised. Do knights use rocket launchers these days, or is this some kind of tough guy’s rifle?

Sona looked at Xiao Hui and remained on guard: "Flametail and Huimao thank you for your help, but if you have any questions, it would be better to ask them in front of us, right?"

But for a man who could destroy an entire team of sweepers in just one minute, it would probably not be difficult for him to deal with them, but he couldn't just be killed without any resistance. Sona muttered while tightly gripping the sword in her hand, "What else do you want from us?"

“What do you want to get? You are very smart, little knight~” Linley slowly stepped out from the shadows. In his left hand, he held the monarch butterfly he had just used, and in his right hand, he held the thorns wrapped in ink-colored thorns. “The red hair and tail… they really fit the term ‘flame tail’.” He then looked at the girl holding the heavy artillery:

"Then it seems that you are Huimao~"

“It’s me. Thank you for your help just now.” The heavy gunner, whose real name was Grenadi, nodded, and the individual cannon in her hand was pointed directly at Lin Lei to prevent him from doing anything out of line.

“Infected knights are really rare, or would Casimir actually allow an infected person to participate in the knight competition?” Linley put away the thorns and looked at Sona, who was obviously the leader. “By the way, you can call me Dredger, an insignificant bounty hunter.”

“It’s only because of Casimir’s current thirst for profit that people like us exist.” Seeing Linley put away his weapon, Sona gently pressed down the gray-haired ‘long-barreled cannon’ behind him. “Little Gray, put down your weapon… At least we shouldn’t have too much hostility towards our savior.”

"I have no hostility, Sona... I am just being cautious."

Linley nodded in satisfaction. He then bent down so that he and Sona were on equal footing. “Then Miss Yanwei, can you tell me who those people were who died at my hands? And who are you protecting?”

The little squirrel's eyes widened when he heard this: "You attacked without knowing who those guys are?"

“Why not? After all, this group of people are dressed like pirated versions of Green Arrow, and they are outnumbered here.” Linley said with a smile, “Why shouldn’t I help the side with fewer people? Besides, both of them are very cute female knights.”

"Eh?! No, no, how did you get here! This place shouldn't be that conspicuous. How did you find this place without someone to guide you?" Sona blushed at first, then waved her hand and asked fiercely.

“Someone told me that the nights in the Great Knight’s Territory are not so peaceful, so after drinking two glasses of wine, I went up the mountain to hunt tigers… No, I followed those sneaky archers over here.” Linley scratched his head. “After all, I just arrived at this place today, and I have nothing to do, so I came in to take a look~”

"Hmm... those people are the lackeys of the Commerce Union - the Helmetless Alliance." Flame Tail shook his head and explained in a low voice: "Not only do they clear out the knights who don't meet the Commerce Union's wishes, they also hunt down the infected here for wages and bonuses."

"The infected here? How else can you explain this?"

"They are all illegal infected people without identity documents. Their lives are already very difficult, and they have to suffer persecution from those knight killers." Yanwei continued, and the girl's originally lively brown eyes dimmed a lot. "So we have been trying to find ways to help them."

“But even so, there are still some infected people who don’t appreciate your kindness, right?” Lin Lei asked with a smile. The infected people in this place didn’t seem to be much different from those in Ursus next door, except that one could still live in the city while the other could only go to places like black mines to dig coal.

"How did you know?"

"Because some cities I've been to are like this." The man shrugged, and at this time, a series of hurried footsteps sounded again behind the two knights, but there seemed to be only two people and the sound of a car? Can you drive a car underground?

“But good times are always short-lived, ladies.” Linley smiled as he slung his bow over his shoulder and walked into the shadows. “I suggest you leave quickly, because if I’m right, the No-Head Alliance will be here soon, and you won’t be able to resist them, so… run quickly.”

"how about you?"

"Me? Of course I'm going home to sleep. If we have the chance to meet again in the future, I hope you can introduce me to those so-called illegal infected people." The man waved his hand and disappeared into the shadows before the remaining two people and a car from the Red Pine Knights arrived.

"Sona, Grenadi, are you okay?" A Kuranta girl holding a lance ran over in a hurry. However, she was taller than a young cavalryman who was still helping to rebuild the Dishui Village, both in terms of armor and height. "Eh? Where are those damn sweepers?"

Huimao put down his shield and pointed at the corpses on the ground: "That's over there. As for what happened here, let's talk about it after we return to the base. It's not safe here anymore. If we don't leave now, we might run into those high-level assassins from the Wuzhou League."

Fighting with these sweeper teams is already difficult enough for these knights. If a platinum or lapis lazuli king comes in person... that would be unthinkable.

And just as the girls thought, a blue gold throne was really on the way!

Roy set out almost at the same time as he received the communication. Although he never asked his subordinates how they acted, it did not mean that he did not understand! His past experience of hunting feathered beasts and his ten-year career in the No Helmet Alliance gave him an unusual sense of crisis!

Almost in an instant, the Qingjin suddenly stopped and saved his life! "Pah!"

An arrow stopped at Roy's feet without a sound or the sound of the bow being drawn! It was as if the arrow had always been there! Qingjin's forehead was instantly covered with cold sweat. He did not hesitate to dodge and hide behind a broken street lamp, while the longbow that he had carefully maintained was already ready to go.

This time he heard the sound of an arrow being shot! Roy slid out from behind the street lamp and shot an arrow back in the direction of the arrow!

A voice that seemed to be distorted by an evil spirit came from the side: "Let's compete, assassins of the No Helmet Alliance... The night is still long!"

020. Roy: Following your heart is the first priority in survival

"Ding!" "Ding!" "Ding!"

The two excellent archers dueled at the entrance to the undeveloped underground area. Every arrow that pierced the night sky was nailed into the nearby walls and pipes. Every beam and concrete pillar on the construction site was their shelter.

"I think there is no grudge between you and me!" Roy shouted in a low voice, and then shot five arrows in succession at the shadow in front of him, but the steel arrowheads did not make the sound of penetrating the flesh as he imagined!

“Really? Then why did you come here?” Linley asked, still choking, “Or did those archers who died under your feet have nothing to do with you?”

"It sounds like you got rid of my sweeper team!" Roy's voice was filled with no joy or sadness, and the bow in his hand bent into a fatal arc. "Actually, this is nothing. After all, every assassin of the No Helmet Alliance must be mentally prepared after joining..."

"It's just that I have no intention of collapsing today!"

An arrow burning with a green flame flew towards Linley’s hiding place like a swallow flying in the sky! And what greeted this swallow was an arrow that was plain but carried a chilling aura!

"Tear~"

Roy never thought that the arrows he used would be so fragile. He saw the green swallow was cut into two pieces by the opponent's arrow when it was only flying halfway, and he himself did not even have the time to dodge!

"Ding~"

The arrow pierced through the scarf and pierced into the ground. Ice crystals then spread from the arrowhead to the feet of the Kuranta. "Well, it looks like I've been caught~" Roy did not resist when he saw this. He lowered his body and drew the bow in his hand forward, "Why don't you kill me?"

“Do you really want to die?” Linley pulled on the mask that came with his coat and slowly walked towards Qing Jin, holding the monarch butterfly.

"If I can live, I naturally don't want to die." Roy smiled bitterly, but he fell silent when he saw the bow that was so familiar to him.

“It’s you! My feeling is correct. This guy is really not simple!” He sighed in his heart, and Linley naturally noticed the change in the killer’s expression: “It seems that you know me, but I don’t know you… or I don’t know many people in the whole of Casimir.”

"In a way I do know you..."

“Let me guess…” Linley snapped his fingers as he paced back and forth. An extremely sharp ice crystal shot up from the ground and pointed directly at the man’s throat. “You were the one who was watching me when I entered the city, weren’t you?”

Even though his neck would be pierced if he lowered his head, Roy still chose to shake his head like a rattle: "Oh, I dare not spy on you."

"Since it's not me, then it must be the little girl with white hair...what's her name, Xinte..."

"Hintlea."

“Ah, right, right.” Linley nodded with satisfaction. “If I’m right, that little girl is one of yours, right? After all, all the knights I’ve seen so far have more or less worn armor. Even the ones holding individual bazookas are wearing armor…but she doesn’t. And she’s also using a bow, right?”

"Yes, she is my subordinate." Roy felt his back was soaked with sweat, and his signal for help had been sent out. Why hasn't that woman Monique come after so long?

“So your position is not low, what’s your name~” Linley broke off the ice crystal and waved it around Roy’s eyes and neck in a pretentious manner, “Don’t panic, you have such a good attitude, I will definitely not kill you, but are you wondering why your companions haven’t come yet?”

"Roy... the Blue Gold Grand Master, as for Xintelaiya... she is currently the youngest Platinum Grand Master in the No Heroes Alliance."

“Then it sounds like the one who came to rescue you is at least on the same level as you?” Linley immediately turned around, picked up Roy’s longbow, and shot an arrow at the rooftop a thousand meters away. There was no need to draw the bow or aim. Everything was so natural. “Okay, you can go now.”

"Because if you don't leave now, your companion might be nailed to death on the rooftop~"

Even though the man had covered his face, Roy still felt that he was laughing like a devil! “Thank you for not killing me.” After taking the bow from Linley, the extremely smooth Qing Jin immediately ran away like a puff of smoke.

Are you kidding? If I go to investigate the cause of death of my subordinates again, I will probably be shot and carried away by this monster!

A quarter of an hour later, Roy arrived at the twenty-two-story office building, and lying on the top of the tower was his colleague Monique!

"Who the hell did you offend?" There was an arrow stuck in the shoulder of this Filin, and the arrow body had completely sunk into the computer. The arrowhead and the man were nailed to the computer case beside him. "How could that guy hit the target with one arrow at that distance?"

"It seems that he doesn't intend to kill you, otherwise both of us would not survive." Roy shrugged and took out the knife he carried with him. "I'll help you cut off the arrow. Also, don't tell anyone about this."

"What if Lord Xuantie asks about it? My injury is hard to hide!"

"Then tell me the truth." Roy responded calmly, "That guy gave me the feeling that he was not a human at all... but a ghost, you know? If nothing unexpected happened, my small group of sweepers should have been killed by that guy."

"Isn't that guy a bounty hunter who has been registered for less than a month?"
