All of a sudden, Snaketooth's heart sank to the bottom.
"Let her go." Fear gripped his throat. He opened his mouth, but his voice was very shaky.
"Do you want to say let her go? Okay. "One of them lifted the stool under Sunflower's feet. Her body immediately tensed up. The rope was strangled into Sunflower's neck. She kicked her feet in panic and clenched and unclenched her hands, but all her struggles were in vain.
Tigerclaw rushed forward, but was hit hard on the back of his head with a stick. His whole body suddenly froze on the ground.
"If she hadn't waited for you to come back, she would have been dead." Kanas' henchman sneered. "What a good excuse. Diarrhea? You probably don't know that the boss has specially arranged people to keep an eye on you. He knows that you stray dogs are difficult to discipline. If he doesn't teach you a lesson, you will really think that the Bloody Hand Gang has no rules. "
"I was wrong." Snaketooth knelt down and said, "Please let her go! She didn't even step out of this room! "
"But this little bitch lied to me." The henchman shrugged. "She also insisted that you were looking for shelter. She didn't admit it even after two of her teeth were knocked out. What's the use of keeping such a person? Give you a chance to take revenge? "
Snaketooth realized that he wanted to kill them. He raised his head with difficulty. Sunflower's struggle had gradually weakened, and her body began to spasm. He forced himself to look away and focus on the dagger on the waist of his henchman... There were only five or six steps between them. If he rushed up and grabbed the dagger...
Just then, the rope broke.
Sunflower fell down without a sound.
"What the hell..." the henchman frowned. But before he finished his words, a line of blood spurted from the side of his neck and sprayed the face of the nearest Rat.
Snaketooth stared at the scene in front of him, dumbfounded. His mind was blank. "What the hell happened?"
At the same time, there were sounds of fighting outside the house.
"Stop! This is the territory of the Bloody Hand Gang! "
"Someone... someone broke in!"
"Ah, my hand!"
"Damn it, come out and kill her!"
"Mon, monster! Help … "
Kanas' subordinates looked at each other and drew their weapons. But before they could rush out of the house, a corpse with only half a body flew in from the entrance and knocked over the two fellows standing at the front.
Only then did Snaketooth see the attacker. It was a beautiful woman with a black ponytail tied casually behind her. She was wrapped in a black robe and her eyes were a rare golden color. Just a glance from her made Snaketooth feel like his blood was about to freeze.
"Put down your weapons now, put your hands on your head and kneel down, and you'll have a chance to live." The woman stretched out three fingers. "I'll count to three. Those who don't do as I say will die."
"Three …"
The scene was quiet for only a few breaths of time before someone shouted, "Heavens, this kind of trash … is definitely worth a hundred Golden Dragon!"
"Everyone, let's go!"
"Capture her and Boss will definitely reward you handsomely!"
"Break her tendons, alive!"
"Forget it, it's better for you to die." She raised an amazingly large and strangely shaped sword and rushed toward the crowd. Snaketooth could hardly believe his eyes. That sword was actually made of iron, and any weapon that touched it would break into pieces. Even the lime powder and the hidden crossbow were rendered useless. Her speed was as fast as a whirlwind, and these normally effective hidden weapons were unable to hit their targets. The group of people couldn't even escape from her hands, let alone resist.
"Protect your people, coward." Snaketooth suddenly heard a voice beside his ear, but when he looked around, he saw nothing.
He swallowed and crawled to Sunflower in a flurry, putting his hand gently on her nose.
Her warm breath slowly flowed out … She was still alive.
Snaketooth felt a lump in his throat. He could no longer suppress his emotions after surviving a disaster.
What was said in the announcement was true! These people were sent by His Royal Highness to eliminate the gang organizers! They all survived!
He leaned on Sunflower and burst into tears.
…
As more and more soldiers in brown uniforms rushed into the house, the battle quickly ended.
All the living Rats were ordered to stand in a line and walk out of the house one by one.
"Uh … my head hurts." Tigerclaw touched his head and said, "It's so swollen."
"You're lucky you didn't get beaten to death." Snaketooth glared at him, tears still lingering in his eyes.
"What the hell happened?" Sunflower rubbed her neck, where the cyan bruise was clearly visible. "I thought I was going to die."
"I'll tell you when we get out." Snaketooth shook his head. He was afraid that if he said it now, he would cry again.
"Next, it's your turn." The guard at the door twisted his arm behind his back.
Snaketooth did not resist and followed the guard out of the door. He saw a woman in a white robe standing outside the yard, just like the other side of the Black God of Massacre. Her face was covered by a hood, and only strands of blonde curls could be seen.
"You can go after answering this lady's questions."
"Yes," Snaketooth answered honestly. He was completely shocked by the strength shown by this group of people.
"Have you ever killed anyone?" Her voice was clear and melodious, as if it came from another world. "What about rape? Robbery? "
He suddenly remembered that she was the invisible person who had warned him.
"None."
"That's enough." She nodded. "Go to the square and wait for His Highness to distribute dinner."
Snaketooth took two steps forward and then stopped. He plucked up his courage and asked, "Are you … a witch?"
"Yes." He thought he would not get an answer, but the other party gave him an affirmative answer.
"These, these people are just Kanas's subordinates." He bit his lip and said in one breath, "He hasn't come back for four days. He must be hiding with Bloody Hand! Bloody Hand is the real leader here. Don't let him go! "
"Don't worry, they can't escape." The other party chuckled, her tone full of unquestionable confidence.
…
"You mean … the people sent by His Highness to kill the leader of the Rats are witches?" Tigerclaw's eyes widened.
"Not only witches, but also many ordinary people." Snaketooth recounted the bizarre things he had seen. "My previous guess was right. His Highness's territory has accepted the existence of witches. They're just like ordinary people. They can show up in public without any worries, and even fight side by side with everyone!" He paused and said excitedly, "If Paper was really sent there, she must be living a good life now."
"Why, do you still want to see her?" Sunflower curled her lips. "According to what you said, witches are rare talents. You'll only embarrass her if you see her."
"Uh …" Snaketooth was speechless. He knew that Sunflower was right. He was just a Rat. Even if he could survive the winter, his identity would not change. Paper, on the other hand, had probably lived a completely different life and was no longer on the same level as him.
