Looking at these things in front of me, the memories of past struggles together were also touched and came to mind one after another.
Bernard laughed as if he was feeling the irony.
"Actually, I've known for a long time that sooner or later I would be in this business." He said,
"It's just that I didn't expect it to happen so quickly."
"...Isn't this nonsense?" Wayne said speechlessly.
"What's the surprise? Will I wait for you to be ready before coming?" Bernard stared at him and asked: "Your Excellency, have you joined the city guard?"
"Yes." Wayne nodded.
"If you had just surrendered, you would have suffered less." The chains of fire snakes intertwined in a cage began to shrink inwards, and Bernard could not escape anyway.
However--
"Heh." Bernard's eyes reflected the light of the nearby fire. From the corner of his mouth, a line of bright red blood flowed.
"There will be no good end if you do things for them." He said vaguely. After saying this, he fell to his knees on the ground as if he had lost his support, coughing out blood foam.
Wayne frowned.
"You want to commit suicide? The order we received is just to arrest you and bring you to justice." He said calmly,
"As long as you don't resist forcefully, I won't do anything to you."
"Hahaha..." Bernard held his hands on the compacted earth and laughed loudly.
"Even if I hadn't died here today, I wouldn't have survived!" This powerful gang leader in the past was now as embarrassed as a dying wild dog lying on the roadside, with blood and tears streaming from his eyes.
"I'm...unwilling...to..." Curled up into a ball, Bernard coughed twice violently again, then his head relaxed - he was no longer conscious.
Standing on top of the alarm bell, Wayne looked at his body silently, seeming to be thinking about something. After a moment, he sighed and waved his hand to disperse the flame cage.
"Lord Echo!" Thomas and Vera also dealt with the other three people who were injured by Wayne's large-scale AOE before and returned to him.
This operation was much easier than they imagined. With these leaders having lost their fighting power, ordinary people who did not know magic did not dare to make any mistakes in front of them. They all crouched on the ground obediently with their hands on their heads.
After all, your life is your own. Of course, this is only the situation in the middle of the camp. There were also some younger brothers in the outer circle who took advantage of the chaos and ran away when they saw that the situation was not going well, and Wayne did not bother to take care of them.
"Inform the others to rendezvous." According to the original plan, it was supposed to be a three-sided attack, with Bulwer himself taking over.
But Echos's knife was so sharp that it was over before anyone else could take action. Thomas took out a cylindrical prop from his pocket, pointed it at the dark night sky, and pulled the lead below.
A beam of light rose into the sky and floated for a long time before slowly fading away. … Seeing Bernard, who had been confirmed dead, and the other three people who were unconscious, Bulwer let out a long breath.
The result was much better than I expected.
"Thanks to Mr. Ecos for this time." He was full of praise. With such results, it is enough to make a difference.
He said in a very friendly manner: "I wonder if Mr. Echos is free tonight?" Being looked at by a strong man with blazing eyes, Wayne was filled with chills.
But Bulwer soon put his doubts to rest.
"I told you before that I would like to introduce someone to you." He said formally. Wayne looked at his face and saw that his attitude was serious, so he nodded indifferently and said, "Okay." After the rough finishing, the city guard will take over the place urgently.
Probably wait until dawn tomorrow,
The name "Red Rose Team" will resound throughout the royal capital. He looked around again and followed Bulwer away.
"Your Excellency Echos." Riding in a very low-key-looking carriage and taking a long detour, Wayne and Bulwer arrived at a manor.
Seeing the destination from a distance, Bulwer, who had always seemed mysterious, revealed some information at this time.
"Please don't reveal my other identity later. You will meet... a very important person."
"This is a precious opportunity that I got after many efforts." After thinking about it, he added: "Although there may be other opportunities for you. But I think this It will be a meeting that is beneficial to all of us." Wayne raised his eyebrows noncommittally.
"Hmm" said. During the action just now, he actually felt that there seemed to be another hidden reason behind the simple death of the gang boss.
He thought of the previous commander-in-chief of the city guard. However, since Bulwer didn't mention it, he didn't want to say anything more.
After stopping for a moment outside the manor, the door slowly opened and the carriage drove straight in. After getting off the carriage, Wayne raised his head and glanced at the exquisite three-story attic in front of him.
Just from the appearance of the building, you can tell that it was expensive. Next to the carriage, a maid bowed her head and bowed, then led Bulwer and Echos inside.
As soon as he stepped into the building, Wayne saw a familiar face. Yes, Mrs. Cherry, whom I met once at an art exhibition.
Could it be that the person Bulwer was talking about was... She was waiting solemnly at the entrance of the living room with a smile, and her eyes quickly fell on Echos.
The first lady, Mrs. Cherry, was slightly startled, with a hint of surprise in her eyes.
"This must be Miss Echos, right?" Wayne's temples jumped.
"Just call me Echos." He said in a stiff tone. Mrs. Cherry did not feel dissatisfied, she walked forward affectionately and took his hand.
Being touched by her smooth skin was like a slippery and cold snake crawling across it. Wayne felt goosebumps popping up and wanted to shake them off.
However, in order not to break out at the beginning, he still held back the feeling of discomfort.
"Then I will be disrespectful." Mrs. Cherry smiled as if she was very familiar with it.
"Before this, I have heard rumors about you, Echos, for a long time, and I have been fascinated by you for a long time..."
"This is the first time that my idol has come to my home as a guest. I can't let go of the opportunity to get close to the person I admire." She said softly.
Wayne didn't know what to say, his expression was stiff. Fortunately, Bulwer helped him out.
"Ahem..." Bulwer coughed twice and said, "Mrs. Cherry, let us meet him first... That gentleman, please wait until the business is finished before getting close to Mr. Echos." Cherry Madam’s beautiful eyes are flowing,
"That's right." She didn't let go of Wayne, but still held his hand affectionately, turned and walked upstairs.
"You two, please come with me." (Search on Baidu on mobile for [My sister is a villainous daughter + new book] Click to read on mobile to turn pages, eye protection, power saving, and data saving function)
