Sword and Sorcery and Martial Arts

Chapter 254 Auction

Rhodes and Quentin strolled around the slave trading market a few times, and they almost figured out the terrain here. Through observation during the day, Rhodes found that there were not many people who could fight in this market, except for a dozen servants who looked a little vicious. Other than the soldiers, everyone else seemed weak.

After returning to the tavern for dinner, Rhodes sat in the tavern and waited for the night to come. Now it is early winter in Nord, and the night comes very early.

After Quentin left the slave market, he returned to the ship and began to prepare for what he needed to do.

After Rhodes saw that it was completely dark outside, he ran to an unoccupied room on the second floor of the tavern and changed into a nightwear suit, and then jumped directly from the window on the second floor to hide in the dark night.

Qingliu City is a very developed city in Nord, with 10,000+ residents, and there is no curfew system, so there are still many pedestrians on the road.

Rhodes planned to stay at the slave trading market first, maybe there would be a good chance to make a move.

He came to the slave trading market with ease, only to find that there were more people at night. Rhodes hid aside to eavesdrop, and finally learned that they seemed to be planning to hold an auction here.

Wouldn't it be a little incomplete after time-traveling not to attend an auction?

But I'm here to do business, and it's almost as good as destroying the auction to participate in any auction. I guess it's not a good bird to come to this kind of place to participate in the auction.

Rhodes was hesitating whether he should sneak in and grab all the auction items in the auction. Although robbery is not right, it shouldn't be a problem to rob them.

What he is hesitating now is that if he robs, he might startle the snake and affect the subsequent rescue of the slaves.

But thinking about it, anyway, he intends to kill all the slave merchants and mercenaries inside and then release the slaves. After doing this, he can take away all the auction items by the way, just to divert attention and make others think The main purpose was to steal the auction items, and those slaves took advantage of the chaos to escape.

There are many fierce-looking mercenaries standing at the entrance of the shed area where the slave trading market is located, and people continue to walk into the shed area. These people who walk in are wearing masks of different styles, and they also took out a mask. The tokens are checked by these mercenaries.

Rhodes noticed that these mercenaries did not search the people who came to the auction, and he didn't know whether they were confident or trusted these buyers.

There are a lot of oil lamps in the shed area, and Rhodes will definitely be found when he enters in a night suit.

Rhode looked up and looked up. He felt that he could climb from the roof of the house next to him to the top of the shed, and then use the mage ball to explore the situation below, and choose a place where no one was there to break open the roof of the straw shed.

The only problem is that I don't know if the roof made of straw can bear his weight. He has the blessing of stepping on the snow without a trace, so as long as each foot can step on the beams supporting the straw, there should be no big problem.

Rhodes found an empty corner, climbed up to the roof of a house, and then slowly walked towards the top of the shed. After finding a relatively solid location, he used the mage ball to explore the bottom with mental power Case.

There were more people who came to participate in the auction than he had imagined, and people kept walking into the shed. All the people who came to the auction went into a basement at the end of the shed.

During the day, the slaves who were trafficked like livestock were still in their original positions, but their cages were covered with a layer of black cloth, and there were no guards around them.

There were also much more mercenaries in the shed than during the day, which made Rhodes regret it, so he might as well do it directly during the day today.

The mercenaries staying in the shed were mainly focused on the gate and the basement, and no one was staring at the cages containing slaves on both sides of the road.

Rhodes found a place, fell from the top of the shed, and hid behind the cage covered with black cloth. The sound of his landing was covered by the voices in the shed and the conversation between the slaves.The lighting range of the oil lamp in the shed is limited, and the place where he is staying is still pitch black.

He bowed his body and hid in the darkness and walked towards the door of the shed. He was going to stay at the door and wait for all the buyers to arrive before closing the door.

This shed area is a straight road with thatched sheds on the top, with stone walls on both sides. Starting from the gate, there is also a wall at the end of the road, and the basement is next to the wall.

As long as Rhodes kills the people at the door, and then kills all the way to the basement, he can kill everyone. The wall next to him and the hut are connected as one, and they have to break the hut above the head if they want to escape over the wall.

Rhodes felt that the sound here should not be transmitted. There were many slaves beside him who were still screaming in pain because of the whipping they suffered during the day. If the sound could be transmitted, the surrounding and further residents would not be able to bear it.

In a quiet night, a little bit of sound would be infinitely amplified. If there was such a wail every day, the residents in the city would definitely have opinions. If nothing else happened, there should be a soundproof magic circle here.

Rhodes stayed in place and waited for nearly an hour. It was about nine or ten o'clock in the evening. A mercenary ran out from the basement, and the mercenary at the gate of the shed and the mercenary at the door of the basement closed the door. .

It's finally time to start!

Rhodes felt a little excited in his heart, which made him wonder if he was a little mentally ill.

He quietly approached the few mercenaries who had relaxed their vigilance at the door. These mercenaries thought that there would be no accidents after closing the heavy iron door at the entrance of the shed, and they didn't think of the danger from inside.

"I don't know why they are so nervous every time, who dares to come here to make trouble?" A mercenary leaned against the wall and said, the next moment an invisible air pierced through his eyebrows, and he slid down from the wall He fell to the ground, blood gurgling from the hole between his eyebrows.

Several mercenaries around wanted to shout, but the next moment, their eyebrows were also pierced by Rhodes' Yang finger, and then Rhodes quickly used the mage ball to drag all their bodies behind the cage to hide .

The cage was covered with a layer of black cloth, and the slaves locked in the cage had no idea what happened.

Rhodes quickly approached the basement, silently killed several mercenaries on the way with the same method, and then dragged their bodies to the back of the cage with the mage ball. As exciting as a silent assassination with a pistol.

He is not planning to use martial arts like Flame Palm tonight, as it is easy to be identified by some traces by interested people.

One yang finger in the air is different. One yang finger penetrates the heads of those mercenaries, and the wounds left are similar to those caused by many kinds of weapons.

He killed another mercenary who was resting on a pillar, and just as he was about to hide the body of the mercenary, a mercenary holding a torch not far away found his companion lying on the ground, with blood still flowing from it. With the head pouring out, he yelled "Someone is invading!"

Seeing that he was exposed, Rhodes no longer hid. He used one yang finger to kill all the mercenaries not far away, and then ran towards the basement...
