The steam train is speeding on the rails. The high-temperature steam mixed with Mars is ejected from the top of the locomotive and quickly evaporates into the air. The scenery on both sides of the track is good, with beautiful mountains and clear waters. Because the steam train is traveling too fast, the wind pressure brought it to pieces A small white flower.
The scene outside the car window flew by, and a few white petals flashed by. Inside the car, a man wearing a black dress and a silver earring on his right ear was standing in the aisle. He looked very gentlemanly , but that beast-like breath made him look like a hungry wolf in human clothing, a brutal and murderous gentleman.
"Mr. Baiye, I'm Kalu. Lord Moonlight wants to see you. Your trip to the parliament will be delayed. Please rest assured that we will not harm you. This is Lord Moonlight's order."
The man who called himself Kalu was polite and didn't care about the dozen or so eyes around him. He was here to kidnap the master alchemist this time, so of course he was prepared.
In the carriage, more than a dozen mystics were staring at Kalu. Several of them looked nervous, their palms were covered with fine sweat, and they swallowed saliva from time to time, trying to moisten their throats that were dry due to tension.
Su Xiao doesn't know much about the situation in this world. He doesn't know whether Kalu is famous or not, but he is sure that these mystics who are responsible for escorting him are a group of novices.
As soon as the enemy showed up, the dozens of mystics all exposed themselves. Although their eyes were full of killing intent, they were more panic caused by inexperience.
Alchemists are very popular in the Four Kingdoms and the House of Assembly, let alone Su Xiao's current identity as a master alchemist, how could it be possible that there are only a dozen or so newly promoted mystics escorting him, there must be something hidden in it.
As for Kalu wearing silver earrings, judging by the other party's aura, Su Xiao feels that this is a hyena wolf, a hyena wolf that can transform between humans and monsters.
Hyena wolves are not considered man-eating monsters. Except for a few hyena wolves that hunt and kill civilians, most hyena wolves only target the high-level people of the Four Kingdoms and the House of Assembly.
The four kingdoms have their own kings. These four behemoths are four independent countries located on the continent. The map of the entire continent is separated by a curved cross. There is a kingdom in the east, south, west and north, and the parliament is in the center. .
The decision-making of the House of Assembly can control the four kings, and the 8 members in charge of the House of Assembly are all from the Four Kingdoms. Their individual rights are less than that of the king, but they are higher than the king when they are collectively.
Usually, the parliament does not interfere in the internal affairs of the four kingdoms. The four kings will govern their own kingdoms. Each kingdom has a complete power system, ranging from military commanders to local clerks. , each with one or two sheriffs.
Since the establishment of the House of Council, the conflicts between the four kingdoms have subsided, but the Hyena tribe has always been an unresolvable enemy. This nocturnal tribe is not only united, but can also marry humans and produce pure-blood descendants.
The kingdom and the parliament are linked by power, while the hyena wolf tribe is linked by family, and each family has dozens or even hundreds of branches.
Before gathering together, they may be laborers, fishermen, or even kingdom officials. Once the hyena wolves hold a family meeting, they will be hunters at night.
Su Xiao didn't know the purpose of the hyena wolf clan coming to find him. As for the Moonlight Lord that the other party said, he hadn't heard of it for the time being.
With a swipe, the door at the rear of the compartment was opened, and the first one to come in was a one-meter-high dining car.
Creak, creak~
The bearings of the wheels of the dining car were a bit difficult. A maid wearing a maid outfit came over pushing the dining car. She was obviously a little dazed, and she didn't notice the tense atmosphere in the car. Difficult.
"Sir, can you please?"
Hearing this weak voice, Hyena Wolf Kalu was obviously stunned for a moment, and stepped aside in a strange way.
"Mr. Bai Ye, here is your meal."
The dull maid placed the dinner plates one by one on the table in front of Su Xiao, and finally put down a cup of black tea. She bowed to salute, and pushed the dining car to the front carriage.
The moment the carriages were closed, a mystic suddenly stood up, and blue and black lines appeared on his right hand. Almost at the same time, a blue and black phantom appeared behind Kalu. To Kalu's nape.
Hyena Wolf Kalu didn't look at the mystic at all, but raised his hand to unbutton his collar.
Poof.
The blood spattered, and the eyes of the mystic with blue and black lines on his right hand were wide open, and four slender metal claws pierced his chin, all the way through the Tianling Cap.
The mystic was lifted off the ground. He raised his head slightly and let out a yelling sound. It was blood entering his trachea. He tried his best to turn his gaze away, and the last thing he saw was a beautiful woman. short light blonde hair, face?Woman with silver stud jewelry.
The first mystic was killed, kicking off the battle. More than a dozen mystics in the carriage discovered that there were hyenas in human form in the seats next to them or in the back seat.
Inside the carriage, there are a few mystics who obviously can't use them. Mystics can be divided into two types. One is the secret line. This kind of mystic has its own family, and there are inherited secret lines in the family. , with the improvement and development of each generation, the secret pattern will become stronger and stronger.
The second category is the branding system. This kind of mystics imprint the secret pattern on the body, which cannot be passed on to the next generation, and is unstable and changeable.
It's hard to say which department is strong, but the people in the carriage at this time are all mystics of the branding department, and their abilities are all kinds of strange.
With a bang, a corpse torn in two fell beside Su Xiao's seat. He picked up the napkin on the table, wiped the blood on the back of his hand, and started to enjoy lunch. Looking at the weather outside the car window, it should be noon now.
There was chaos in the carriage, with low growls and screams, and the passengers in the front and rear carriages obviously sensed something was wrong, and some rioted.
Surrounded by blood spatters, Su Xiao was eating his lunch calmly. He was thinking about one thing, who was offended by his current status, and why the mystic who escorted him was so weak.
The battle subsided after half a minute. Hyena Kalu wiped the blood on his hands while walking towards Su Xiao. The gray and black hair on his body gradually retracted into his body. It is not for nothing that this group is called hyena wolves. They fought At that time, its appearance was somewhat similar to that of a wolf, especially the eyes and the hair growing on its body.
"Mr. Bai Ye, I don't want to make you and I look bad, so come with me. Please rest assured that Lord Moonlight's residence will definitely satisfy you more than the House of Parliament."
Kalu made a gesture of invitation, Su Xiao put down the black tea in his hand, looked at Kalu, and his eyes met.
Not good! This idea almost instinctively appeared in Kalu's mind, and he immediately wanted to back away.
Swipe~
A flash of cold light flashed, half of Kalu's head flew up, and the body fell to the ground with a thud in the next moment, with bloodstains spreading under him.
Blood dripped down the short knife of [Soul Whispers], Su Xiao was still sitting in his seat, looking around at the dozen or so hyena wolves in human form in the carriage.
Facts have proved that Su Xiao is not the alchemist who is weak in close combat as Kalu imagined
