Thousands of sparks

Chapter 11 Blood Mist

The glory of pioneering nobles is the most dazzling one among the thousands of glory of His Majesty the Emperor.Maintaining the glory of pioneering nobles is the best proof of loyalty to His Majesty the Emperor.

The honor of nobility is challenged and polluted in the basest sense when stones are thrown from the houses in which they live.

The career and life meaning of a noble guard is to protect the honor of the master.The act of throwing stones at nobles is essentially spitting in the faces of all the guards.

And to add, "Your life is meaningless."

Since the pioneering of Newsail in 170, the guards trained by the Imperial Army and stationed in various noble families have faced the harassment of star robbers, resisted the attacks of rebels, and even protected themselves from the assassination of other noble guards. the master.

But such insults were unprecedented and unheard of.

Tom and Todd held revolvers and stood firmly at the crumbling iron gate like two iron towers.The other guards began to quickly approach the place where the movement was made.

Ten seconds later, the sound of cursing, beating with sticks, and wailing came from outside.Tom and Todd still didn't move. They stood at the door with their arms raised and their guns raised. There was not even any sign of shaking in their arms.

After about half a quarter of an hour, seven or eight guards came in dragging two human-looking objects.They threw the "humanoid objects" they were dragging on the ground, then turned around and left.

Todd and Tom looked at each other, Todd handed the gun in his hand to Tom, then pulled out a folding stick and walked up.

Todd seemed to be a little uncertain when he flicked the two "tan" people on the ground with a stick.So he stepped on the position of one of them, which was probably the palm of his hand.

"Alive." After hearing a vague scream, Todd nodded.Then he frowned again, "This group of guys, they can't do anything lightly or hard."

"It's all done like this, how can you ask for information?" Tom sighed.Just when Dusand thought he might have to take the two to the hospital, Tom said, "Bury them somewhere."

"Let's ask first." Todd didn't completely reject the proposal proposed by his colleague, "Have you brought the ephedra potion?"

The two guards were discussing the next interrogation steps, and Rosen, who had just gone to change clothes, ran out all the way.With a crowbar in his hand, he shouted as he ran, "I'll fight with you!"

Du Sande gave Tom a helpless look, Tom nodded knowingly, and then used the same posture as in the bankruptcy court before, holding Rosen by the neck and hanging him in the air.

"These two hooligans are dying." Du Sande said to Rosen, "There's no need to get your hands dirty just to vent your anger."

Rosen slowly calmed down again.

"Who are they?" Todd took out a bottle of potion from his belt and poured it into the mouth of one of the muddy people.But Du Sande decided to ask the situation first, "When these people usually need debts, they are used to using stones to open the way, and then use 'catch your sister and sell them to miners' brothels' as a solution to the debt problem?"

Speaking of this, Du Sande frowned even deeper, "How old is your sister, five years old? Six years old? Tsk, these bastards!"

"They are Boss Enrico's subordinates." Rosen glanced at the two "tan" people, and then said, "Our family does not owe Boss Enrico money, they may be here to blackmail."

"Well, that's because they were unlucky today." Dusande nodded, and said to the frightened and pale Polina, "Teacher, please sit in the room for a while. Wait for a while. The scene here may It's going to be bloodier."

"Aren't you afraid?" Polina nodded, and then asked, "Why don't you go in with me?"

“Seeing the death of two scumbags who tried to blackmail a poor family by threatening to traffic a five-year-old girl to a brothel — it just makes me feel so much better,” says Dussande with a very bright smile , "You can go and see the situation of the machine tool first, I'll just stay here."

When the old woman led Polina into the room, Dusande restrained the smile on his face.

Two people who can only be described as "beach" are lying dying a few steps away, and their guards seem to have no intention of taking their lives seriously-of course Dusande will be afraid, and It's not just ordinary fear.

He felt his legs trembling back and forth uncontrollably.

But Androni has been instilling in Dusand through various means what the so-called "responsibility" of the nobility is.

"As nobles, we not only have rights, but also responsibilities." My mother taught herself time and time again, "We are like the shepherd dogs of His Majesty the Emperor. Where his benevolent gaze cannot reach, our duty is to stand up for him." His Majesty the Emperor grazes the civilians. In order to graze, we have to use our fangs and claws to make the civilians fear and submit to us all the time. But we must always remember that the purpose of the existence of the fangs and claws is to protect them for His Majesty the Emperor."

Now is the time to show fangs and claws to the wolf who has poisoned His Majesty's people.

After being fed with the ephedra potion, the "tan" person who was closer to Dusand finally regained some vitality.He began to beg for mercy vaguely, the general content was to curse himself first with the dirtiest and worst words, and then ask these "respected gentlemen" for forgiveness and mercy.

In short, the desire to survive is very strong.

"Whose subordinates are you? Why do you come here to throw stones?" The dedicated guard didn't have any intention of "giving him a break", and Todd began to press for information quickly.

He must speed up and press for information.The duration of action of the ephedra medicine is not long, and it can last for about two quarters of an hour.Once the effect of the medicine wears off, the person will die immediately.

The ephedra potion is not a panacea for all diseases - it was originally prepared by the guards, ready to resist to the end when they are seriously injured.

Guards will always put their own lives behind "owner safety" and "mission mission".

"Ask clearly." About a quarter of an hour later, after confirming that there was no more valuable information in the other party's mouth, Todd turned around and walked to Dusand.

"Master, I asked you clearly." He lowered his voice and said to Dusand, "They are subordinates of a bastard named Enrico. Enrico himself is mainly engaged in human trafficking, usury and smuggling."

Du Sande blinked, "Do you need to evacuate immediately?" In Du Sande's mind, there is one who can touch these professions, one is a ruthless character who licks blood at the edge of a knife.Although he really wanted to see justice being carried out, but... if the price of justice was the lives of himself, Polina and the twenty guards, it would really be a bit uneconomical.

"It's just a gangster." Todd showed a very confident smile. "Their existence has already threatened you. At the same time, they have also tarnished the honor of the nobles with practical actions. While ensuring your safety, eradicate This criminal gang is also our job."

Tom's voice sounded from a little distance away, "Young master, if you don't want to watch it, that's fine. If you're interested, we can take you to the action site to take a look later."

Dusande blinked, and he began to have some doubts.

Todd and Tom...wouldn't it be because they felt that they had lost face because of the stone throwing before, so they are holding back their energy and preparing for revenge here?

The revenge of the noble guards of the empire...is it so violent?

Two blocks away, in a two-story gray stone building that looked very different, a group of big men in leather jackets were drinking heavily.

The weather in Newsail in late autumn is cold, but fortunately there is never a shortage of thermal coal in the industrial area-if necessary, just smash down the gate of some unlucky factory and move it.

However, simply lighting a fire to keep warm is not as comfortable as drinking the strongest Lieg wine to keep warm?If these spirits smuggled from Olin are sold through formal channels, only nobles can afford to consume them.But as one of the smugglers in Upper Albin, Boss Enrico was able to drink a bottle full of Lieger every day.

"This is a good thing that noble gentlemen can enjoy!" After drinking happily, Boss Enrico stood up suddenly from his seat, and stepped on the old leather boots stained with mud on the table, "If we drink this wine, then we are nobles!"

The other drunken men laughed unscrupulously, and then began to compliment each other, "Oh, my dear Mr. Marquis, you look like a bastard!"

"Ha ha ha ha, Mr. Earl, your ass is more upright than a whore in a brothel!"

Obscenities and titles of nobility filled the two-storey building.The smell of alcohol and sweat, the spit on the ground mixed with the pungent smell of tobacco, the strong smell seemed to dye the air in the building.

Outside the transparent window, the autumn wind is blowing wantonly.

A group of tall and straight people dressed in black gradually appeared around the small building.They wear cloaks, riding boots, and black octagonal hats with brims.On the chest, occasionally a golden light could be seen flashing.

They gradually controlled all the commanding heights and roads around the entire small building, and began to stare at the small building with unobstructed cold eyes.

After a quarter of an hour, as the atmosphere in the building reached its climax, the people in black also started to move.

Except for the man in black who was guarding the road, everyone else took out a half-human-high iron pipe with a pressure gauge from under the cloak.They completed the installation and filling of the iron pipe in a very short time, and at the same time pressed the switch at the bottom of the iron pipe.

Driven by jets of high-pressure steam, dozens of iron blocks the size of fists shot out at a speed that was almost impossible to track with the naked eye, and then smashed the expensive blown flat glass.

Before the big men in the room realized what happened, the metal blocks that smashed the glass and destroyed a large piece of furniture burst out with dazzling fire, and large pieces of metal balls spewed out .

What makes these "gangsters" run rampant in the industrial area of ​​​​Upper Albin is not only the unscrupulous and ferocious style of action, but also the strong and bulging muscles on their bodies.

But now... these things are like a piece of papyrus that has been soaked for more than ten days.In front of the high-speed flying steel ball propelled by the gunpowder explosion, it will break with a single poke.

A huge explosion resounded throughout the Upper Albin region.

And Du Sande, who was watching from a place of about [-] yoles outside the small building, saw with his own eyes a large cloud of blood sprayed out of the window on his side.
