Chapter 151 The Dark Knight
The people Bruce brought were all veterans who had retired from the battlefield. They cooperated with each other tacitly and fought in an orderly manner.And the ordinary gangsters of the Green Fox Gang saw that things were not going well and started to flee, leaving only the group of killers still struggling.

After killing the killers around him, Rhodes stood on the spot and rested. The battle tonight had consumed too much of his energy. He had been fighting for almost seven or eight hours in a row. His arms were a little sore now.

If Bruce hadn't brought reinforcements just now, it would have been a little difficult for him to escape today.

He didn't dare to be reckless like this again in the future, but the hard work tonight was worth it. Not only did he fight against evil, he helped many people, and he also gained a lot of chivalry points.

He just turned on the system and looked at it. His chivalrous value increased to 5032 overnight, which was enough for him to draw five times with the advanced lottery. After seeing this number, he felt tired all over his body instantly.

"Thank you for bringing someone to help." Rhodes said to Bruce.

"This is what I should do. In fact, I should thank you. You risked your life to remove the cancerous tumors in these cities and returned me such a large sum of money." Bruce turned his head and sincerely said to Rhodes Said.

"The big cancer is cleared, and it also gives the small cancer room to grow. Those small gangs will gradually replace the two forces that I wiped out, and there will be more blood and chaos in the middle." Rhodes said plainly. Said.

"Isn't there still you in this city?" Bruce smiled.

Rhodes shook his head, and said righteously, "Other cities are still waiting for me to save, this is your father's city and should be saved by you. If I were you, I would integrate the underground forces of the whole city and let them do it for me. use, and restrain their behavior, so as to reduce their harm."

"I'm not my father's first heir. I live in that slum and raise those orphans. The relationship with my father has become very tense. If I do this kind of thing again, my father will definitely be dissatisfied. And brother's jealousy, and the things involved are not as simple as you think." Bruce smiled wryly.

"It's not as simple as I thought? What do you mean?" Rhodes was a little curious.

"For example, the brothel we are standing at now does not belong to the Blue Fox Gang. It is the property of Earl Bowen, the commander of the City Guards of River Valley City. He did not manage it himself for his own honor, but will This brothel is handed over to the Green Fox Gang to help him manage it, and the Green Fox Gang needs to pay him a lot of money every year. The leader of the Green Fox Gang is just an ordinary person, how can such a lucrative industry belong to him?" Bruce explained road.

"Then didn't our behavior offend that Earl of Bowen?"

Bruce nodded, "I will find him personally to apologize later this afternoon. Apart from my identity as my father's second son, I am just a knight without a fief, and he is an earl."

"So the main reason is that you are afraid of offending people?" Rhodes smiled.

"If I integrate the underground forces of the entire city as you said, I will offend the nobles of the entire city, and even my father will not be able to save me, and I will die without knowing how. My life doesn't matter, but those orphans will lose my protection and end up on the streets and starve to death," Bruce admitted frankly.

"Then are you willing to use your life to protect the innocent people in this city?" Rhodes asked, staring at Bruce.

Bruce hesitated for a while and asked, "What do you mean?"

Rhodes didn't answer his question, turned and walked towards the stairs, disappearing from Bruce's sight...

Bruce returned to the mansion in the slum, and he walked into the study on the second floor.After locking the door, he walked to the bookshelf and took out a few books. He put his hand on the mechanism hidden behind the books, and turned the mechanism counterclockwise twice.

There was the sound of gears turning in the study, and the bookshelves moved slowly, revealing a secret door behind.

Bruce opened the secret door and walked in. After he walked in, the secret door closed automatically, and the surrounding became dark.

It didn't take long for the oil lamps on the surrounding walls to ignite automatically, and the light from the oil lamps brightened the whole space.

This is a secret room, and the floor of the secret room is full of gold, which was brought back by Bruce from the Reiner family's casino. Seeing the gold all over the floor, he fell into deep thought.

As the second son of the lord of River Valley City, he has never seen so much money since he was a child, but this money is only part of the forces formed by a group of rats in the city. One can imagine how much blood they have sucked from the innocent residents. .

In fact, he could not understand what the rats in the gutter did for a long time, but behind every group of rats was a greedy nobleman. If he trampled those rats to death, those noblemen would definitely unite and kill him.

Leaving the secret room, Bruce went down the stairs to the first floor, leaning on the sofa and began to struggle with his thoughts.

On the battlefield, I can fight bravely and defend my country without fear of sacrifice like a hero, but when I come home, I can only fear this and that like a coward.

Even if I do nothing, won't others come to deal with me?Even if I do nothing, people think that I am the leader of the Tiger Gang, one of the three original underground forces, but I personally wiped out the Tiger Gang and sent them all to prison. After doing this, I get It's not my father's admiration, but his warning. The Tiger Gang is a force cultivated by my brother, and he thought I was trying to usurp my brother's position as heir.

Bruce looked at the man with a strong physique and a depressed face in the mirror in the living room. He felt very strange. When did I become so hesitant?
The sound of knocking on the door interrupted his thoughts. When he opened the door, he found that there was no one outside. He looked down at a set of black clothes on the ground, which still exuded a faint smell of blood.

It seemed to be the clothes worn by that strange man in black whom we met tonight.

Bruce picked up his clothes, and hid a beautiful long knife under his clothes. He bent down and picked up the long knife, closed the door, and returned to the sofa.

Why did he leave these things at my door?

Bruce looked at the black clothes and the long knife on the coffee table and thought.

The mice in half the city must have known about the behavior of the man in black. They probably all hated and feared him. He delivered the clothes to my door. Could it be that he wanted to frame me and drag me into the water?
Bruce suddenly recalled what the man in black said before he disappeared.

"Then are you willing to use your life to protect the innocent people in this city?"

He seemed to understand what the man in black meant, he took off his own clothes and put on this black clothes.

The suit looked baggy on Rhodes, but it looked like a tight suit on Bruce.

Bruce looked at himself in the mirror and felt that he had found something again. He pulled out the beautifully shaped long knife and gestured with it in his hand.

Handy, the knife is well-weighted and well-balanced, and feels like an extension of the arm even on first use.

Bruce touched the blood groove on the knife again, and commented in his heart that although the knife is beautiful in shape, it has to be said to be a murder weapon in hand.

He looked into the mirror and muttered to himself, "From tonight onwards, I will no longer be a noble knight of the empire, but I will become a dark knight feared by mice and nobles."

At the same time, the warm sun rose from the east, tore apart the dark night, and the golden sunlight shone on Bruce through the window...
