When his consciousness recovered and he woke up a little from the boundless darkness, the vigilance habits he had developed as a transcendent and as an assassin allowed Bartel to quickly concentrate and wake up, although doing so made his head feel like The pain was like being pricked by needles, but he knew that as an assassin, if he passed out at this moment, he would be giving his life to others.
Batel did not rashly open his eyes or move his body to avoid being noticed. Instead, he tried his best to use his body to feel the surrounding affairs. For an extraordinary person, his strong mental power makes it irrelevant whether he really opens his eyes or not. Although he is injured now The heavier the condition, the more depressed the spirit will be, but one can still feel the subtle movements around the body.
??That is to say, was he rescued after being injured?
With his eyes closed, Battel analyzed the information fed back to his body from the surroundings. It seemed that he had been rescued. Although his body had been severely injured, he was recovering slowly. It was probably because someone had given him a healing potion. He remained calm. He moved his hands and toes slightly to make sure that his limbs were still alive. Although he was rescued, he didn't know whether he was rescued by the enemy or someone else. You must know that he is a lone ranger in this city, and this city It is not easy to meet a few warm-hearted good people in a twisted city full of blood and crime.
Well~ except for the bandage on my body, the air circulation around me was not obvious and I didn't feel any wind. It seemed that I was in a closed room. There was a light source shining on my eyelids but I didn't feel the heat. From that point on It seems that the magic wave reaction should be magic crystal lamp. When did the free city prison start to use magic crystal lamp luxuriously?
Realizing that no one was around, Batel was about to open his eyes to check the situation, hoping that he was not lying in prison now.

Suddenly the sound of opening the door sounded, and Batel, who was about to open his eyes, immediately pretended to be still in a coma, but Batel had already judged from the sound of the door opening that this was not a prison, but a normal mechanical lock. The sound of opening, and judging from the banging sound when the door was closed, it seemed to be a wooden door.
Batel judged the identity of the person who entered here through the footsteps. From the sound of walking, it seemed that the person had not practiced martial arts and was just an ordinary girl.
No fool would think that a wooden door could trap an assassin, and he was an extraordinary assassin. Not to mention that there didn't seem to be any protective circles around him, and he didn't have any shackles or restraints on his body. Torture tools, and at this time, a girl came in with hot water. Was it because he was too seriously injured and he was taking it lightly, or was it for some other reason?
Batel was not in the mood to think too much about the identity of the other party and the reason for saving him. The woman put the basin aside and began to wash the towel, and then began to wipe her limbs. The movements were very gentle and made her very comfortable, even if it hurt. It seems to have eased a bit.
"Quiet, little girl, if you don't want your neck to be broken, you'd better stop struggling right away. Do you understand?"
Batel suddenly got violent and grabbed the girl's neck. He then covered her mouth and said viciously: "Don't think that I don't have the strength because I'm injured now. Breaking your neck is no better to me than picking a flower." Easier."
It seems that a little girl who is only fifteen or six years old has a very ordinary face with a little acne on her face, but at this moment, she is looking at her head with tears and horror.
Batel carefully loosened his hand covering the girl: "I can let go, but if you dare to scream after I let go, I guarantee that it will be the last sound you make in your life. Listen. do you understand?"
Seeing the girl nodding like she was pounding garlic, Batel patted her face with his fingers in satisfaction: "Very good little girl, only smart people can live longer in this world."
Although the girl let go of her hand, she was frightened but did not scream or continue to struggle. She seemed to have understood the huge disparity in physical strength between herself and the man in front of her. SeeAt this moment, Battel felt a little relieved, but his other hand was still holding the girl's neck. As long as the girl made any rash move, he could immediately break her fragile neck.
"Listen to me, little girl! Now I'm asking you, you answer whatever I ask, do you understand?" Batel's face turned ferocious, he pinched the girl's neck and threatened fiercely.
The girl immediately nodded in fright: "I understand, sir."
"Very good, good boy~!" Batel also softened his expression: "Then tell me, Alisa, where is this place?"
When he heard the word "Black Rose", Batel's expression became a little weird, but he quickly returned to normal and asked: "Black Rose, are you sure you're not lying to me?"
"I don't dare! Really, this is really the Black Rose's guild hall."
The girl pointed to her chest tremblingly. Only then did Batel realize that the girl was wearing a familiar emblem on her chest. It was a black rose. But from the graphic point of view, it seemed that it was still in bud. Now on the black street This black rose-shaped emblem is almost unknown to everyone. It represents the symbol of the Black Rose, the overlord of the underworld. Except for the members of the Black Rose, any outsider dares to forge and wear the same emblem privately. It's extremely miserable.
Judging from the workmanship of the emblems, they don¡¯t look like crude fakes. Each of the Black Rose¡¯s emblems is blessed with some kind of special magic and is connected to the magic circle in the guild hall. The leader of the Black Rose, the mysterious and beautiful female mage, designed A very clever magic system has been developed. Counterfeit emblems and emblems not worn by the person themselves will be identified. It is difficult for outsiders to sneak into the Black Rose without invitation.
Although it seems that the emblem is not fake, Batel still remains suspicious of the girl's words: "Okay, then the next question is, who brought me here? How long have I been here?"
The girl said with a tearful voice. Batel asked again and confirmed that she had been in a coma for almost two days. This little maid didn't know much about the situation. Batel had no intention of taking care of a maid who was sent to take care of her. He got too much information out of his mouth, but he only roughly understood that the upper management of Black Rose did not seem to have any intention of killing him. During the period when he was injured and comatose, he had been sending people to treat him. If he woke up, he would be treated as soon as possible. Go inform them.
Batel sneered. He didn't have time to look for Black Rose, but someone else came to him first. It seems that the beautiful and mysterious Ms. Black Rose is also a master who is unwilling to be lonely. She can use it overnight. After establishing this influential Black Rose organization in the lower class area, I am afraid that this organization can no longer satisfy her. The ambition of Ms. Black Rose, who is ready to reach into the extraordinary realm, is greater than imagined.
But it¡¯s precisely because of these ambitions that makes her look more mature and charming, isn¡¯t it?
Judging from the current situation, Batel feels that his life is temporarily safe. At least Black Rose did not hand him over. With Black Rose's strength and intelligence gathering ability, it is impossible not to be unclear about what happened in the city in those few days. Since they didn't hand themselves over to the powerful extraordinary people behind the scenes in this city, it at least meant that they had something to talk about.
"You're a good boy. As a good and obedient boy, you can take a break now."
After asking the maid about the deployment and situation of some personnel outside the room, Battel prepared to temporarily stun the girl. He did not choose to silence the girl because he considered that this was still the territory of Black Rose, and Black Rose did not seem to have any feelings for him. It is obviously not a good thing to kill the other party's personnel, even a humble maid, when the hostility is still open to negotiation.
"No! Please sir, please don't kill me, I've told you everything." Apparently the girl misunderstood the meaning of 'rest' and thought that Batel was going to kill her to silence her.
Batel smiled: "Don't worry, I told you that you will be fine if you just take a little rest."
"Sir, if you want to see Ms. Black Rose, I can help you forward the report."
The girl was almost crying. She held Batel's hand tightly with both hands, butThis little strength seemed so weak to Batel that it was like massaging himself. However, a ring on the girl's hand caught Batel's attention. Although the ring was simple and inconspicuous, it was A ring that seems to be made of sterling silver. Can this be owned by a little maid?
Maybe it¡¯s someone else¡¯s heirloom!
"Thank you for your kindness, but now is not the right time. I will come to visit Ms. Black Rose in the future." Batel didn't think much about the ring. At this time, he was already preparing to choke the girl unconscious with slight force.
And at this moment, the panicked expression of the girl who was caught in the hand suddenly disappeared, replaced by waves of sinister smiles, like a cat that had had enough of teasing its prey.
Suddenly the girl grabbed Bartel's hand and said with a smile: "But Ms. Black Rose really wants to see you."
