Seeing the mob attacking, Gilan and Mr. Stork reacted fastest.
The two of them took out their guns almost at the same time, and shot separately with great tacit understanding.
One on the left and one on the right, each fired.
Bang!!
Gilan brushed the hammer with his left hand, and fired three shots from the revolver, instantly killing the three people on the right with headshots, and immediately holstered the gun.
The whole process seemed to have been rehearsed thousands of times, smooth, natural and fast.
The two ladies couldn't help but look askance at Mr. Snowy Owl's marksmanship.
Bang! Bang!
Mr. Stork fired two shots, killing the remaining two people.
The gunfire suddenly rang out in the quiet street. The surrounding residents must have heard it, but no one dared to come out to watch the excitement.
But Record Society Everyone can feel that in the stone and wood houses on both sides, there are many prying eyes cast through the gaps in the wooden windows.
"These thugs are infected with the plague."
Mr. Stork stepped forward and used his cane to lift off the dirty clothes of a corpse.
I saw that the man who had been shot in the head had an unknown mass in his armpit, the size of an egg, and his skin was covered with dense black spots.
"This is a symptom of the plague, the Black Death."
Mr. Oystercatcher came over to take a look and judged.
"Yersinia pestis is transmitted through flea bites, causing inflammation and swelling of human lymph nodes until it spreads to the lymphatic system throughout the body, and then enters the blood system to cause sepsis... skin hemorrhage, ecchymosis, cyanosis and even necrosis, and most corpses are purple-black."
"These thugs are already short-lived and will undoubtedly die within three days."
As he spoke, he looked at the other members and reminded:
"Although we wear masks, it is best to avoid close contact with the locals as much as possible... If any of them are infected with the plague in their lungs, the blood droplets they cough up will also contain the germs."
"Yeah." Everyone nodded.
Although this is just a movie, after being infected with the plague, the real body will probably have negative effects. This is similar to the principle of injury.
Mr. Stork lowered his head to observe the corpse, but added in a deep voice:
"It's not just the plague... these people are also contaminated by mysterious powers and Miasma, so be careful."
Gilan glanced at the corpse.
He wanted to try Corruption, but now was obviously not a good time.
A few people left the five corpses alone and continued to move forward.
Not long after, they encountered a group of eight patrol guards.
"You guys! Stop!"
The first man, who looked like a squad leader, drew out his dagger from his waist and led the team in stride.
This person wears an ear-covering leather hat with a metal disc helmet on the outside. His face is wrapped in a triangular scarf, only a pair of evil eyes are exposed. The leather armor on his body is somewhat tattered, and he wears a pair of high-top pointed leather boots, tied with hemp ropes.
"Stranger? Doctor Bird's Beak? Where are you from?"
The squad leader opened his mouth with a series of questions.
"North." Mr. Stork replied calmly. "We are the mercenaries of 'Bosi Alliance'."
The squad leader looked at several people with his eyes, but smiled:
"With your fancy clothes and women, you don't look like mercenaries, but more like thieves who have sneaked into 'Leia'... Show me your appearance, and then check if there is anything suspicious on you."
As he spoke, he strode towards two ladies, Sparrow and Seagull, and stretched out his hand.
Obviously he has no good intentions.
Whoosh!
Mr. Stork turned the cane and placed the end firmly on the squad leader's chest.
"Ha! What do you mean?!"
The squad leader laughed, his voice rising.
The seven soldiers behind him drew their short swords with a clang and surrounded several people.
Gilan had an expressionless face and quietly inserted his hand into his windbreaker, planning to take out his gun and kill all these blind guards.
But at this moment, a group of men and women wearing white uniforms with green labels slowly walked from the other end of the street, led by a tall and muscular man with a crew cut.
"Huh? A foreigner again?!"
The team leader turned around and looked surprised.
"It's really strange. Why are there so many foreigners coming in all at once?"
There are eleven people in the team that the crew-cut man belongs to. They all have cold faces, no one speaks, and they are extremely disciplined.
They stood twenty meters apart from Record Society and did not get closer.
In the middle is a local guard.
"Damn, how could I be so unlucky..."
Mr. Stork suddenly cursed in a low voice, his tone unprecedentedly solemn.
He stared at the group of men and women in white uniforms and reminded them in a deep voice:
"Everyone is ready to run away! Those people are the elite team of the empire's 'Purification Department', and they are all very dangerous! Moreover, they will never reason with us, and will definitely kill us!"
"?!"
The Assembly Everyone was shocked.
Empire "Purification Department"?!
Why are there other moviegoers appearing in the movie being played...
"I'll explain it to you later, after we leave here."
Mr. Stork said hurriedly.
When he spoke out to remind everyone, Morphine Squad was also communicating in a low voice.
"Captain, those guys wearing masks don't look like plot characters."
A woman with short hair and bangs spoke up.
The brawny man Beromo with a flat head stared at the five Record Society and said immediately:
"Most of them are people from the secret society 'Record Society'. They like to use birds as their code names... Of course, this cannot be ruled out as a coincidence."
"However, no matter which faction they are from, watching True Film Reel without permission has violated 'Secret Decree'. Follow my orders and prepare to take action."
"No need to worry, kill without mercy!"
"Yes, Captain!"
The team members' eyes narrowed and murderous expressions appeared on their faces.
At this time, the local guard team leader frowned, looked around between the two parties, and finally pointed his sword at Morphine Squad and ordered:
"You strangers, sneaky ones, come here too!"
"Kill!" the strong man with a flat head shouted coldly.
Puff! Puff puff puff!!
Ten men and women in white uniforms quickly drew their guns and shot at Record Society people.
The "Ivory Pistol" in their hands seemed to be fully automatic, with extremely fast firing rate, crackling, and shooting out four or five bullets in one second.
The two sides were within each other's sight, and bullets were flying on the street twenty meters away.
The stone bricks on the ground, excrement water, wooden barrels and stone piers on the street all had bullet holes, splattered with sawdust, stone powder, and even tiny specks of excrement.
Because the local guards stood between the two sides, they were the first to bear the brunt. Under the gunfire, no one was spared. They were all shot and screamed.
The squad leader was shot more than ten times, and the leather armor on his body could not block the firepower. He was about to fall over while vomiting blood.
Gilan took a step forward, reached out with both hands, and grabbed the bodies of the team leader and another guard, using them as two "human shields" to block the front.
Without turning his head, he said in a deep voice:
"Run!"
The Assembly No one was talking nonsense, turned around and ran away.
Instead, the two ladies looked back at him in unison, with two pairs of concerned eyes under their masks.
"We are waiting for you in the church!" Miss Sparrow shouted finally.
Gilan did not answer, because among the eleven people on the other side, a man and a woman suddenly appeared and came straight towards him.
They apparently exhausted their magazines, but did not load the ammunition. Instead, they planned to use close combat to deal with themselves and at the same time pursue the four fleeing the Assembly.
But how could Gilan let them get their wish?
He waved his hand and threw the two battered corpses aside.
Immediately, he turned around and ducked into the alley on the right.
As expected, the two men followed in, each with a cold face, and took out a Zhihu knife.
The man held it upright, while the woman held it backwards, and pounced on it from left to right.
Gilan stopped suddenly and kicked his feet.
Snap!
Its body was like a butterfly that suddenly changed direction, its forward momentum suddenly changed to backwards, and it bumped backwards with an elbow without looking back.
There was a sharp cry.
Almost in the next second, two curved finger-tiger knives grazed both sides of Gilan's cheeks. He even saw the astonishment on the faces of the man and woman.
Poof!!
The shock on the woman's face instantly turned into pain, and her mouth opened wide.
After receiving a full elbow from Gilan, her ribs were broken and her internal organs were bound to rupture and bleed.
At the same time, a shiny ax passed through the crescent moon, and with a click, the male team member's head was taken off like a kite flying through the air.
The head flew up, spinning, and blood sprayed in arcs.
Plop.
The woman and the headless corpse fell down at the same time.
The head then landed with a thud, bounced twice, and rolled to the woman's hand.
"You?!"
The female team member was vomiting blood in her mouth and could no longer care about her headless companion beside her. She lay on the ground and turned her head, eyes wide with fear.
The man wearing the white owl mask was already walking towards him!
The opponent was carrying an ax and raising his windbreaker, like a demon in one person.
"Wait... wait!" she screamed.
Thanks to "Eel Fishing Rice" for the 500 point reward!
Thanks to virtualyi and Xie Shuiyu for the reward!
