Chapter 9 Who are they?!
The dark night is like a monster with shadow as its body, and even the stars in the sky are swallowed up. Occasionally, there were one or two dog barking, and soon it became quiet again. This is the darkest moment before dawn, even the night watchman can't open his eyes.
Outside a gorgeous building in the southwest corner of Wangcheng, Meiji hid in the shadow. There are still several people hiding around him, but it is difficult to find out their location. All he could vaguely see was the back of the girl leaning against the wall in front of him.
The girl put her sword behind her, and her body was motionless like a hunting cheetah. Her sword is heavy and thick, and it doesn't look like a weapon used by women at all. For Meiji, he has only seen Joshua use this heavy weapon with strict requirements for strength and skills. However, Joshua's two-handed giant sword is magical and can only be used by him, while this girl's is just an ordinary giant sword.
A few dog barks came from the front door of the building, and the girl looked back at him.
"Meggie, are you ready?" She asked.
Mage nodded.
This girl is Molly. At first, Megie didn't expect that there would be someone he knew among the eight immediate personnel mentioned by Leot, but when he thought about it again, it seemed to be taken for granted. Obviously, Molly will be the captain of Molly's future team with Greenless, Anna and Will. That task is undoubtedly very important. If she hadn't trusted her, Sophia would not have handed over such an important task to her. But if Molly is an important member of Sophia's secret organization, it makes a point.
Thinking this way, I'm afraid that even Greenless is likely to be a member of this organization.
At this moment, a fire suddenly rose from the end of the main door of the building, and the attack had begun. The magic-set alert in the wall was also touched and jingled. There was a series of running and urgent calls in the building, as well as the sound of arrows breaking through the air. According to the plan, Molly immediately gave way, and Megi quickly cast a spell, a superimposed stone collapse, and the wall outside the building collapsed. More than a dozen dark shadows rushed over like lightning, blocking the enemy who heard the noise. Meiji also ran in and cast a spell again under Molly's guard, breaking a big hole in the back wall of the building. The enemy who had concentrated to guard the main gate was suddenly hit by two sides and began to panic. Some people tried to run to the second floor, but Molly rushed into the hall from the mouth of the hole and guarded the stairs with a sword.
The enemies on the first floor were quickly cleaned up, and some of them were separated to attack the basement, while Molly directly led a group of people to rush to the second floor. Other agile people use hooks and other tools to climb two or three floors from the windows, creating chaos for the guarded enemies. Meiji followed Molly closely and threw a magic or two at the gathered enemies from time to time. The battle was almost one-sided. Most of the enemies woke up from their sleep and ran out to fight in a daze. Some of them didn't even have time to wear their trousers. And Meggie and Molly were well prepared and attacked suddenly, which naturally caught the enemy off guard.
As the guards on the second floor were suppressed in several rooms, Molly and Meggie broke into the third floor. There were fewer enemies on the third floor than on the second floor, and they were solved with almost no resistance. Molly rushed straight to the end of the corridor and kicked open a locked door. A middle-aged fat man was rushing to throw some letters into the brazier to burn. Seeing Molly, he kicked the brazier and kicked Molly. Molly split the big sword and split the brazier in half, and Meiji, who followed her, also released a light wind magic and rolled the scattered ashes to both sides.
Molly rushed to the fat man to catch him alive, but the fat man had stepped on the table first and jumped out of the window. Before Meiji reacted, Molly also jumped down with her.
Isn't it? Meiji looked at the ground from the window and saw that the fat man rolled on the ground like a meatball and ran directly from the outer wall that was blown open by Meiji, while Molly hit the ground with a big sword before landing, and firmly fell firmly by rebounding, chasing the fat man.
What kind of people are these?
In desperation, Meggie had to move the stool up the window, first gestured and jumped down when the magic was about to be completed. Halfway down, his hand pointed down, and a wind mass suddenly appeared, slowing him down. However, at this moment, someone just ran out of the big hole on the first floor, was smashed out of balance by his wind ball, and watched him fall on his body.
Meggie sat on the man's body. Well, there is no pain in falling. I'm lucky, but the things sitting on my buttocks seem to be a little strange, soft and comfortable...
He looked down and found that he was sitting on a girl's chest. This girl was also one of the eight "immediated personnel". It is estimated that she saw Molly chasing the fat man and wanted to keep up to help, but unfortunately she became Megji's meat mat. She lay on her back and stared at him viciously in Meiji's **.
"Well, thank you... You are such a good person." Meiji quickly stood up and ran in the direction where Molly disappeared, pretending to have no idea.
He put a wind acceleration technique for himself and soon saw Molly's back. Although Molly carried a big sword on her back, she was not slow to run at all. And the fat man began to get tired and stopped there panting with his legs.
"You can't run away." Molly approached him coldly. The fat man's face sweated and retreated step by step.
Just as Molly was about to capture him alive, the accident suddenly happened. An electric light fell from the sky and hit the fat man. The fat man twitched all over and fell to the ground, motionless.
"Hey," Molly turned around and stared at Meiji. "This man is going to be caught alive."
"It's none of my business," Meiji was also stunned. "This is a high-level thunder summoning skill, and I don't know how to use it yet."
Who would that be? Molly held a big sword and looked around. At this time, the sky has begun to shine faintly, and the rose-colored glow gently stroked the east of the royal city. A man came out of the alley, holding a refined cane made of locust wood in his hand, wearing a black magic robe, and the smile on his face was disgusting.
"It turned out to be Miss Molly. I haven't seen you for a long time." The man bent down to Molly through the fat man's body.
"Frisis, why are you here?" Molly frowned.
"Lord Sarai asked me to secretly investigate the disappearance of the girl in the royal city during this period," Frisis pretended not to hear the dissatisfaction in Molly's tone. "And I found out that this person was the mastermind behind the scenes. I didn't know where he was hiding, but I didn't expect to meet him here."
"But you killed him..."
"Why do you keep this kind of scum?" Frisis said politely, "I'm just avenging those innocent girls who died tragically."
Molly was silent.
Frisis looked at Meggie, "Is this the boy who temporarily replaced me in team training? Miss Molly, you have worked so hard to accompany such a useless guy who can't even deal with a wolf or dog.
"Mage is no worse than you." Molly looked at him coldly.
"Oh, when did Miss Molly have such a sense of humor?" Frisis said lightly, "How dare you compare a new boy with me."
This guy is annoying enough, and Meggie looked at him angrily.
"I hope the next time I meet Miss Molly, it will be in a more romantic place, not across a body." Frisis slowly retreated until he retreated into the shadow and disappeared.
"Who is this bastard?" Meiji looked at Molly and said, "He is obviously killing people."
Molly just sighed softly.
*
When the battle in the building ended, Molly quietly retreated with Meggie and others. At the same time, the people of the Knights of Roses blocked the place in the name of investigation and characterized last night's battle as an "internal struggle between private armed forces".
A total of three girls were rescued, and the girl named Jiajia in the circus was also inside.
The others disbanded silently, and only Molly took Megji back to the big yard where Sophia took him last night. After passing through the tunnel, they entered the secret base, and Sophia was still waiting on the second floor.
After listening to Molly's report, Sophia was silent, and the lone wolf Leo stayed aside with a blank face. The room was quiet, as if someone was pulling away the air here, making everyone feel breathless.
Meggie couldn't stand this atmosphere first. He asked loudly, "Who is that guy named Frisis?"
"Frisis is the second son of Lord Lianting's family. Except for some achievements in magic, he is not an important figure." Sophia answered his question gently.
"Then why don't you just arrest him? He will appear there so coincidentally and kill the important witnesses we are chasing without even saying hello. "There is a problem at all," Meiji asked hatefully, "Or is the son of a lord much more important than those dead civilian girls?"
"Meggie, you don't know the situation." Molly whispered.
"Then tell me! If you let go of those people behind the scenes like this, can you guarantee that it won't happen again next time? What if other girls continue to disappear? And those girls who have died tragically, should they die inexplicably? Who will give justice to them and their families? These words were so righteous that even Meggie himself was a little moved.
"Mage," Sophia sighed, "You don't understand, Frisis is just a magician, but..."
"I don't care who he is, the magician is or anything else... magician... magician..." A light suddenly flashed in Meiji's mind. Yesterday evening, it was a magician who injured Ziya. Jiajia was rescued in the early morning action. It can be seen that those people are indeed with the magician who injured Ziya, but during the whole attack, they did not meet an enemy who could use magic. The only magician is Frisis, who suddenly appeared and killed people...
Meggie only felt that she was sweating coldly. He looked at Sophia and saw that the beautiful princess looked at him with clear uneasiness in her eyes. She knew... She knew that the person who almost killed Zia was Frisis...
Meji is not a person with a sense of justice. In fact, he doesn't care about whether the dead girls have "justice" at all. Anyway, those people are not close to him. But Ziya is different. Ziya is his friend. No matter who hurts Ziya, he can't just sit idly by.
More importantly, Sophia said last night that she would trust her, but now she is hiding him.
He slowly retreated until he retreated to the door, then looked at Sophia disappointedly and turned away.
"Your Highness..." Molly looked at the princess who frowned slightly.
"Forget it," Sophia smiled bitterly. "After returning to Rose Dew Manor, I'll talk to him again."
After saying that, she also went out.
Molly looked up at General Wolver, but there was a gloomy look on Leot's face.
"Shir, can I ask," she said carefully, "What is the relationship between Meggie and Her Royal Highness?" In any way, Princess Sofia's attitude towards Meiji is a little too strange. Such a *less boy who came out of the fog girl forest, Sophia actually let him live in her manor for no reason and took him to such a secret place... This is really curious.
General Wolver did not answer, but glanced at her faintly.
"Ah, I'm wrong. I shouldn't have asked." Molly quickly jumped to the door. However, after exiting, I couldn't help looking over again, "Sin Officer, do you say... you don't know?"
Leot frowned.
"Sure enough..." Molly spit out her tongue and immediately fled.
