The atmosphere in the alley wasn't right. If they were ordinary people, they would've most likely turned around and left.
But the three players were confident that they could be resurrected, so they continued forward fearlessly.
The alley twisted and turned, but as they approached the deepest part of the alley, the smell of blood gradually became stronger.
Until they turned a corner and saw a rather luxurious three-story building at the end of the alley.
In front of the building, there was a square, a lawn, a fountain, and some realistic statues.
This was at least the style of relatively wealthy nobles. It was hard to believe that such a house would appear in a slum.
And in front of the building, there were many people lying or lying on their stomachs, and there was a pool of red blood under their bodies.
Most of them were already dead.
And in front of the building, there were even more corpses.
The three of them were a little surprised … They came here angrily looking for trouble, but they didn't expect to see such a scene.
This gang had most likely been uprooted by someone.
Who did it?
Just as they were thinking this, a group of people appeared at the entrance of the building.
Roland froze for a moment, because he knew this group of people. Bard and his Wizard's Apprentice followers.
No wonder there were faint remnants of magic elements in the air after a riot.
Bard walked at the very front. He was also stunned when he saw Roland, then he smiled lightly and strode toward Roland.
And behind Bard, the magic apprentices dragged out a middle-aged man and a woman.
Bard walked up to Roland, looked at Hawk and Jett, and then said with a smile, "You're late. I've already done the job for you, self-proclaimed righteous Golden Sons."
His tone was smug.
Hawk couldn't help but turn his head and ask, "Do you know this guy? I really want to beat him up. "
Hearing this, Bard was immediately a little upset. He looked at Hawk and sized up his appearance, then a little fearful.
Not long ago, Bard had his subordinates scout for information and learned a lot of information.
The person who had died countless times before and forcefully brought down a small noble family should be this bearded young man.
Getting angry with such a barbarian was behavior that only an idiot would do. What if this guy really had a brain cramp and was at loggerheads with him?
Seeing that Bud was surprised, Roland smiled and asked, "Why are you here?"
"I've asked around about you guys and found out about your performance in the disappearance of the young girl. My personal guess is that the murderer will do it again. I wanted to send people to protect the civilians, but I was too late." Bard's expression became very proud again. "Although it was a little late, I still managed to save those two old things. Here, you don't have to thank me."
Following Bard's triumphant laughter, Lisa's parents were thrown in front of Roland by the magic apprentices.
The middle-aged man and woman were so scared that their faces were pale and their bodies were trembling. But when they saw Roland, they actually exploded with great power, and their expressions became crazy and resentful at the same time.
The two of them lunged at Roland and hugged his legs.
The man's expression was crazy and vicious. "Why? Why didn't you protect us? Why? Aren't you good people? Aren't you supposed to protect us weak civilians? What's the difference between you and the murderers? Murderers, executioners. "
The woman's eyes widened as if they were going to pop out of their sockets. Her eyes were vicious and resentful, and she looked at Roland as if she were looking at the murderer of her son. "You vicious man, why didn't you come to protect our home? Why didn't you come? Why didn't you come?"
The two of them were cursing and hating. They added the most vicious words to Roland.
Bard was stunned for a moment, then he raised his head and laughed happily and proudly. His laughter grew louder and louder until it drowned out the curses of the two middle-aged men, until he couldn't catch his breath and it turned into strange sounds of coughing.
His face and neck turned red, as if he would die in the next second.
But in the end, Bard still recovered. He took a few breaths and looked at Roland with a mocking, smug, and victorious expression. "These are the civilians you wanted to protect before. Are you happy that they're so lowly … Shut up."
The last "shut up" was not directed at Roland, but at the middle-aged couple. He felt that their voices were affecting his speech.
Frightened by Bard's roar, the middle-aged couple immediately stopped cursing.
"Look, these are civilians." Bard opened his hands and said with a fanatical expression, "Is it interesting for you to hang out with these shameless, ungrateful civilians who don't even understand their position? I know that you Golden Sons don't seem to like us nobles, but are these civilians much better than us nobles? Aren't you Golden Sons a bit idiotic to stand up for these people? "
Looking at Bard's proud expression, Roland just smiled and raised his eyebrows.
The other two also had funny expressions on their faces.
Seeing them like this, Bard's proud expression gradually froze.
Hawk chuckled and said, "When did we say that we were standing up for them?"
Bard looked at Hawk. "Didn't you? I've investigated you. You fought a noble family for those civilians whose hearts were cut out! "
"Yes. I did fight. It's not wrong to say that it was for those children, but it was mainly for our own values, "Hawk said indifferently." We were simply unhappy with what that noble did. As for this couple, before we came, we more or less guessed that they would become like this. "
Bard looked at Roland. "You guessed it long ago?"
"When they were unwilling to leave this city and still wanted me and Betta to protect them, we already knew that they would be like this. We don't like this couple either. " Roland shrugged and said indifferently, "But we're still here. Saving them was just a matter of convenience. We simply wanted to find a reason to clean up the gangs here, or the nobles who act unscrupulously and violate the bottom line of our values."
Bard's eyes gradually opened. His expression was as if he had seen an extremely incredulous expression. "This couple is just your 'bait'?"
Roland nodded. "You can say that. We only help civilians who are willing to live and have the will to save themselves. This kind of courting death has never been within the scope of our help. "
"You're all lunatics." Bard's expression was no longer as proud as before, and it was even somewhat livid. "You want to clean up us nobles!"
"No such thing," Roland flatly denied. "We're just cleaning up some evil people, and those people just happen to be nobles."
