The heavy whistle of the falling shell covered the panicked screams of the people.
KABOOM!
The shell landed right in the middle of the convoy, engulfing everything within a 5 meter radius.
The wagon in the middle was blasted to smithereens, together with the people inside, they were instantly turned into a pile of meat paste.
The two wagons in the front and back were blown away, with many broken limbs flying all over the place.
The pungent smell of gunpowder and fresh blood filled the entire street.
A second after the explosion, the street was silent.
Then, at the next second …
Cries and wails sounded at the same time.
It was like a boulder being thrown into a calm lake.
It wasn't just a ripple but a tidal wave.
"Save me!"
"Mommy!"
"I want mommy!"
…
Thousands of voices entered Kieran's ears.
Roshen, who was being carried by Kieran, saw everything with his own eyes.
He saw his most capable men blasted to smithereens, he saw innocent civilians caught in the blast, and when a little girl with both her legs blown up appeared in his sight, Roshen's eyes turned red.
He broke free from Kieran's hand, raised the flintlock in his hand, and aimed it at the gunner on the roof.
The gunner wore a hooded mantle that covered his face, but his body was big and buff. He used his shoulders to lift the cannon that required three men to operate and was being pushed by wheels.
"Me!"
Roshen pulled the trigger.
Bang!
Thick smoke came out from the flint of the flintlock and the pellet was fired at the gunner.
The gunner didn't dodge.
He allowed the pellet to hit his body.
There wasn't a splash of blood, the gunner didn't even take a step back.
He was completely unscathed!
Roshen was stunned. He drew the sword from his waist and dashed towards the opposite roof.
Roshen didn't think too much at the moment.
The scene before his eyes made his blood, which hadn't cooled down yet, boil at that moment.
But he was stopped.
"Our target!"
Kieran grabbed Roshen's shoulder and shouted.
Instantly, Luo Du woke up.
"Those who can still move, follow me!"
Roshen took a deep look at the person on the roof, as if he wanted to imprint the person into his soul. Then, he shouted at the people behind him.
Seven or eight surviving policemen ran over and followed Roshen to a house. The gunner screamed and was about to jump off the roof.
Then, it went back the way it came.
One kick!
Kieran did not hold back at all as he kicked the man's body. The brutal force broke the man's bones and tendons. The hooded cloak made of ordinary linen was torn to shreds by the strong wind, revealing the man's true face.
Orangutan!
A green orangutan with scales on its body.
At first sight of this monster, Kieran thought of the monkey-like attacker from before.
The two seemed to be the same... subject?
Kieran couldn't use the same category to describe it, so he could only use "subjects" to sum it up.
However, compared to the previous ambushers who were weak, this one had a strong physique that matched its appearance.
Almost all of its ribs were shattered, its organs were crushed, and its spine should have been broken into countless pieces, yet it was still struggling.
On top of that, Kieran clearly felt that its body was recovering at an unbelievable speed.
"Gak Gak Tss Tss!"
At the same time, a strange cry sounded again.
The gunner was roaring at Kieran with a ferocious face.
"Haven't you learned the common language yet?"
Kieran muttered to himself as he walked up to the man. When he saw the man struggling to attack him, Kieran was sure that the man had low intellect, like a wild beast.
Without a second thought, Kieran stomped the man's head.
Pak!
The gunner's head was crushed like a watermelon being run over by a truck.
The cannon that the man had been carrying on his shoulder started to glow in green.
[Name: Heavy Cannon]
[Type: Firearm Weapon, Heavy Firearm]
[Rarity: Magic]
[Attack: Powerful (Cannon Attack), Strong (Close Combat)]
[Attribute: None]
[Effect: None]
[Prerequisite: Firearm Weapon, Heavy Firearm (Master), Strength B]
[Able to bring out of dungeon: Yes]
[Remark: It requires a custom-made cannon shell and extra reloading time, but that doesn't diminish its power.]
...
Kieran glanced over the high-tier Magic rank weapon. He didn't look down on [Heavy Cannon] because of its ugly appearance.
He picked it up, stuffed it into his backpack, and chased after Roshen.
The assassin wasn't acting alone.
It was out of Kieran's expectation.
Based on his previous investigation of the crime scenes, the assassin was acting alone.
But now, a 'partner' had appeared!
"So he was aware of Roshen's actions?
Other than the Night race, there were also monsters hiding among the humans and chose the same method as the Night race?
Or … "
The speculations in his heart made Kieran hasten his steps.
He hoped that he could make contact with the assassin.
He needed the other party to provide more evidence to confirm his conjecture.
However, to Kieran's disappointment, he didn't see the assassin.
"That bastard is very vigilant. When we got close, he gave up on his plan!"
Roshen frowned and pointed at the tied up target. The man was a councilor of the House of Commons, a consultant of the police station, and many other identities.
However, the man was still a Night monster.
Kieran looked at the man's face, which looked like it was burnt and disfigured, and stared back at the man's fierce eyes.
“2567?”
The great leader will not let you go!
You are nothing but food!
When the army descends, it will be your time to die! We, the Night race, will be the true rulers of this world … Ugh! "
The Night monster's sinister laughter stopped abruptly. Roshen used the hilt of his sword to poke the man's abdomen. Roshen's skillful move caused the Night monster to choke.
"Don't worry!
"Before I die, I will let you feel the pleasure of being humiliated by food!"
Roshen didn't care about the Night monster's face at all. He stuck his face close to the man's face and uttered word by word.
Kieran clearly saw Roshen twisting the hilt of his sword as he spoke.
When Roshen walked away, the Night monster started to vomit.
The stench of the vomit was enough to scare people away.
Especially when the vomit had half an ear, the police officers' faces turned sour.
Roshen was the same.
The new chief officer grabbed the Night monster's hair with a gloomy face, pressing him down on the vomit and growling, "I'll let you eat your fill!"
Kieran raised a brow but he didn't stop Roshen.
He could tell that Roshen's emotions were a little unstable after the bombardment.
The mask that Roshen had been wearing all this time was thrown away, revealing his true nature.
Compared to that fake look of his.
Roshen's true nature was no doubt more admirable to Kieran.
Still, a reminder was necessary.
"We need him alive!"
Kieran said.
Roshen panted heavily, loosened his palm and waved at his men.
The other officers quickly moved out.
When everyone left, only Roshen and Kieran were left, the new chief officer spoke.
"I know where Herbert is!"
Roshen said.
