Wanren Mountain...it will take a long time for me to go back... The silence during the journey stained Pace's heart like ink. He couldn't help but think of Thebeth, the drizzle in Loton, and the gathering of the Monarch family in the slightly hot atmosphere. Vance... How is Vance now... Can he be a good head of the family? Can he handle being pushed into that position without any preparation? Will he be angry if I don't go back and just leave without saying goodbye? Pace didn't want his brother to be like him, chained to the family and become another victim on the Wanren Mountain, but he had to do it... He could never forget the corpse in the fireplace, nor the empty face of Lianna. That face still appeared in every one of his nightmares, constantly reminding him how incompetent he was. Pace had long realized that he was not suitable to be the head of the family. It was impossible for him to let go of the nightmares of the past. It was impossible for him to force himself to sink into the chains of the so-called "family". He could not stand in the position of controlling the overall situation. He was more suitable to be a fighter for the rights of the family. Perhaps the old butler saw through this and said those words to him in the cellar. "You must get used to this kind of scene, young master. You will see it often in the future." Pace looked down at his hands, as if blood had been poured on them again. Thinking of the smell of blood, his brows couldn't help but frown slightly. Ivar Sekopas, he must pay the price.
"Um... Young Master? Are you okay?" Just as Pesce was lost in his memories, a gentle voice entered his ears. He raised his head and saw Perlis looking at him calmly, but her red eyes revealed a slight concern. "Hmm..." Pace hesitated for a moment, then forced a smile, "I'm fine." Pace gently avoided Perlis's gaze and looked out the window. The scenery of the Visa Desert gradually became blurred, like the torn past. "It's just that I thought about the past, haha." Pace smiled bitterly, but Perlis did not respond to his smile. Her expression suddenly became serious, as if she saw something. Just when Pace was feeling a little strange and wanted to ask her, Perlis suddenly lowered her voice and said: "Don't look back, there are eyes behind you." ...... 2) Fang of the Golden Sand Snake (Part 4) "Eh? What did you say..." Pers was startled by Perlis's sudden warning, but he quickly understood what Perlis meant and continued to pretend to be talking freely: "I was in Wanren Mountain before, hahahaha, actually I was quite happy. Let me tell you, the roasted venison there is absolutely amazing, you really should try it..." Wilkin's pursuers? They showed up so soon? Pace suppressed his uneasiness and signaled to Perlis with his eyes. "Hmm... I'm a little greedy..." Perlis said, and changed her tone again, "Five o'clock, window seat." "Then I'll take you out to eat next time!" Pace responded to Perlis's cover, and then immediately lowered his voice anxiously, "What should we do now?" "Well, okay..." Perlis turned her head slightly towards the corridor and spoke softly, "...don't do anything yet." In the reflection of the blood-red eyes, a man in a black suit was facing away from Perlis. He looked no different from the other passengers, and even seemed a little too inconspicuous. If such a person was thrown into the urban area of Wilkin, he would become indistinguishable in a few seconds and would not attract too much attention. However, his disguise could not escape the eyes of [Pure White Fireworks] at all.
As early as when she sat down, Perlis noticed this man - even though she only caught a glimpse of his back, when he sat down, Perlis still saw some clues. His lower body was very stable, and he made almost no sound when he sat down, sitting very naturally on the velvet cushion. However, to match his extremely light body, his shoulders and back were clearly marked by a lot of training. These alone were not enough to really alert Perlis. However, when the man picked up the wine from the table, Perlis saw the decisive factor - In the tiny gaps between the sleeves, Perlis keenly caught a glimpse of a faint golden light. If she guessed correctly, that person must be one of Wilkin's guards. After the loss in Thebite, Perlis had forced herself to activate her long-forgotten anti-reconnaissance consciousness. If this man was really Wilkin's guard, judging from his seat, in order to surround the group, there should be the same troops arranged on the same diagonal. Perlis acted very quickly. She immediately grabbed a bottle of wine on the table, opened it quickly, and poured the crystal clear wine into the goblet. Then, she handed the glass to Pesce: "Young Master, would you like to try the wine brewed by Wilkin?" As she handed over the wine, Perlis carefully observed the reflection on the glass, looking for her reflection behind her. Sure enough, diagonally at her own five o'clock position, there was a man wearing the same tuxedo. Pace stared blankly at Perlis's series of actions. He couldn't even figure out what she was doing, and didn't know whether he should accept the glass of wine. "Little princess, uh..." "Two men, armed," Perlis whispered, shaking the wine toward Pace again, "Take it, don't draw attention." "Ah...thank you! I don't drink much wine, so this is a good opportunity to try it!" Pace took the wine glass and took a sip, but he had no intention of savoring the wine. He looked at Perlis nervously, a little at a loss. After determining the relative position of the enemy, Perlis gently pushed Carly beside her and called out: "Carly...Carly! Wake up..." "Hmm... um..." Carly frowned slightly and slowly opened her tired eyes, "Hmm... Is there anything wrong? Little White Flower..." "Guards, two, form a V-shape." After hearing Perlis's warning, Carly quickly cleared her mind. She quickly opened the backpack beside her, took out Perlis's butterfly knife and factor bracelet from the anti-scan layer, and secretly stuffed them into her hand. Then, she took out her own ring and quickly put it on her hand. Because Pes's axe was too conspicuous, she did not take it out immediately, but winked at Pes. Pes guessed what she meant and nodded in understanding. "What's next?" Pace asked in a low voice. "Carly, can you find the escape route?" Perlis looked at Carly and asked softly. "Wait a moment," Carly raised her right hand gently, "[Little Brids]..." As she spoke, the ring on Carly's ring finger slightly opened a little, and a few faint blue light spots quickly flew away under the complex golden patterns on the top of the car, hardly attracting anyone's attention. After a brief search, Carly waved her hand and took back the few faint points of light: "There is an escape door in the middle of the carriage, which is locked, but the Rain Barrier can be hacked in." "Well, keep it as a backup," Perlis said quickly, turning her gaze to Pace, "Young Master, the Wilkin Guards mainly rely on close combat, and their general weapons are spears and scimitars. Considering that we are now inside a carriage with a narrow space, he should choose a scimitar, understand?"
"Uh... I see..." Pace was still confused, "So, what should I do?" "At the two o'clock position in your view, there is the guard," Perlis lowered her voice and spoke quickly, "You and Carly are responsible for blocking him. The scimitar's attack speed is very fast, so try not to get hurt." "Understood." Pace nodded, but Carly turned to Perlis with some concern: "Little White Flower, are you okay?" Carly looked at the bandages exposed from Perlis's sleeves, and seemed still worried about her injuries. Under Carly's concerned gaze, Perlis acted very calm: "I'm fine. Now is not the time to worry about me." Having said this, Perlis silently took out the butterfly knife from her sleeve, unfolded it so that the blade was facing outwards, and then gently stuffed it back into her sleeve. "As long as they enter the federal territory, it will be difficult for them to take action, so they will most likely take action before that, that is, after entering the Grau Yad Wasteland." Perlis raised her head slightly and looked at the luxurious clock hanging on the carriage: half an hour had passed since the train departed. According to the speed of the Star Track, they were now in the La Vatino area, and it would take at most ten minutes to enter the wasteland section. "Be prepared at any time. As soon as they make a move, immediately..." However, before Perlis could finish her words, an accident suddenly happened - "Zizzi-" The sound of rails rubbing against each other burst out, and at the same time, the body of the Star Track continued to vibrate and its speed gradually slowed down. "What's going on!?" The passengers in the carriage cried out in panic. The shaking of the carriage caused the wine on the table to spill and wet their luxurious clothes. "coming!" Seeing this, Polly turned the factor bracelet without hesitation, and a blood-red factor shield was quickly generated on her body surface. "According to the plan, you guys deal with the guy in the back, and give me this one." After giving the instructions, Perlis stood up without even turning her head and walked lightly into the corridor. At the same time, just as she expected, two guards in formal attire slowly stood up, holding short scimitars hidden in their sleeves. As expected, it is very difficult to escape from the fangs of the [Golden Sand Snake]. The venom was injected into Perlis' body the moment she entered Wilkin, and it had been slowly taking effect. Only now did she truly see the chess piece thrown by Prince Aloi Aziz. To stop an entire [Star Track]? That's a big bargaining chip. Perlis shook her sleeves indifferently, and the butterfly knife was grasped by her slender fingers. She gently raised the butterfly knife to the guard in front of her, and a cold light shot out of her blood-red eyes. "How are you, Fang of the Golden Sand Snake (Welkin language)," Perlis said in a low tone, mixed with a hissing sound similar to snake language, "Show me your claws (Welkin language)." ...... 2) Fang of the Golden Sand Snake (Part 5) In the first-class cabin of the Star Track, the old guard walked slowly in the aisle, his white frosted hair seemed out of place in this luxurious carriage. The entire carriage was empty. Long before departure, the Wilkin royal family had already booked this carriage as the exclusive private space of the [Golden Sand Snake].
The old guard slowly walked to the huge round dining table at the end of the first carriage. There were more than ten stools around the table, but only one person was sitting at the table. "You're back, Balza." Aloi tilted his face slightly, leaning on his left hand which was supported by his elbow. In his right hand, he held a glass of white cocktail, shaking it slowly. "Is everything ready? My [Fang]." "Prince, I have already told the conductor, we can start now," the old guard called Balza bowed his head slightly, "She has noticed it." "As expected, this is the cute little flower I've fallen in love with..." Aloi looked at the white flower fragments in the cup, with a faint smile on his face. "Let's not talk about how much it will benefit Wilkin's strategic position if I have her... Just wanting to possess her... really took me a lot of thought." After saying that, Aloi casually poured the entire glass of cocktail onto the table in front of him, soaking large areas of the white tablecloth. Under the gaze of the old guard, Aloi slowly stood up, flicked his right hand lightly, and held a golden scepter in his hand. "Come on, Balza, let's go meet my fiancée." ...... Inside the carriage, Perlis stared at the guards in front of her, the light in her pupils gradually covered by a layer of mist. The guard was a tall and strong man. In terms of height, he was half a head taller than Perlis. In terms of body shape, his muscles were clearly defined, and his arms were as thick as Perlis's two thighs combined. Even so, Perlis still looked fearless, holding the butterfly knife high in her hand. Ever since the train stopped and the two men began their confrontation, the carriage had been in complete chaos, with most of the passengers screaming and huddling in the corners, leaving the corridor open. This is good, Perlis thought, at least this way she doesn't have to worry too much about the crowd. "Go ahead, Oasis Guards (Wilkin's words)," Perlis said softly, still holding the butterfly knife high in her hand, "Do as your master says. (Wilkin's words)" "The prince said he wants to capture you alive, noble lady (Wilkin's words)," the tall guard bowed slightly, then his eyes turned, with a bit more murderous intent, "Although I don't want to bully a little girl, it's hard to disobey the king's orders, and it's rare to offend (Wilkin's words)." As he said this, the guard gently turned the scimitar in his hand, drawing a faint golden shadow. The blade was then endowed with factor energy, echoing the "sizzling" sound made by the decelerating rails of the Star Track. The next second, the guard leaped forward savagely and slashed at Perlis fiercely - "Shhh-" With a slight flash of Perlis, the scimitar hit the velvet seat, and pieces of fluff flew out and floated in the air. In the white gaps formed by the fluff, Perlis's figure flashed slightly and disappeared in an instant. "Varied..?" Before the guard had any chance to react, Perlis ducked and slipped under his arm. With a blood-red light in her eyes, Perlis suddenly leaned back and slashed hard, creating a cut on the guard's arm from the bottom. "bass--" "Ahhhh!" The guard screamed, the pain of being hit by the strong factor energy instantly made him twitch his right hand, and the golden scimitar flew out of his hand and flew into the air. Perlis quickly locked onto the scimitar in the air. She ran towards the wall of the carriage, climbed up calmly, then jumped up, drew a curve in the air, and grabbed the scimitar.
"Rest in peace, soul." The next second, she fell lightly from the air and stabbed the scimitar into the heart of the guard. “Ahhh!! Ugh…” The tall and strong guard was pressed directly to the floor of the carriage by Perlis's slender body. Before he died, there was still a gleam of astonishment in his eyes. What on earth is...East...
