Chapter 65 65 Dare to Touch My People and Try

Chapter 65 -65- Dare to touch my people and try

In the west of the abandoned city of Boulder, in a dilapidated courtyard.

Mina was leaning against the corner, her face pale and her consciousness blurred. A hideous wound penetrated her chest, and the bright red blood had already stained her entire outfit.

Two beautiful little daughters gathered around her, holding their mother's hand with tears in their eyes.

The lame old Frank took a tile to catch a little rainwater through the exposed skylight, and brought it to his wife's mouth:

"Mina... don't sleep, drink some water."

His condition was not much better than that of his wife. A horrific sword wound almost cut off his right arm, and he only had a simple bandage.

It was left behind when he blocked the sword for his wife and little daughter.

In fact, if the eldest daughter Shirley had not returned in time and angrily killed the judge who broke into the store, he, his wife, and even the two younger daughters might have died under the knife of the judge. .

"Father, how is mother...?"

Shirley, holding a long sword, walked into the dilapidated house and came to her parents, her cold voice trembling slightly.

Looking at his eldest daughter's blood-stained maid dress, Old Frank sighed.

He was about to answer, but Mina suddenly struggled to hold his hand and said intermittently:

"Frank, don't...leave me alone."

"Quick... take Sally and Mary and leave the city..."

"The Rose Club...is being judged. Don't go to Shirley...and don't go to Lady Charlotte..."

"That will cause them trouble..."

Mina's consciousness was already somewhat unclear.

She spoke intermittently, and her memory seemed to still linger on the moment when the judge broke into the store.

Frank touched his wife's forehead. The severe injury and the rain had already given her a high fever.

However, when they fled for their lives, they did not even dare to light a torch.

He knew his wife couldn't hold on much longer.

I also know that I can't run very far in my current state.

Taking a deep breath, he glanced at Shirley who came in, gritted his teeth and said:

"Shirley, take Sally and Mary to No. 17 Old Street, where the family has a store in the outer city."

"Although the city gate has been closed and you can't leave the city or enter the inner city, there is probably a way to contact the Castel Manor there."

"I'm afraid Mina and I can't hold on any longer. You take them two and leave quickly, go there... to seek asylum from the family!"

"The judges who attacked the store are so strange. They are much older than the knights of judgment, and they are not wearing chains. This shows that they are not real judges!"

"This sacred judgment against the Society of Roses...someone is fishing in troubled waters!"

However, after listening to her father's words, the girl did not move.

"Shirley!"

Frank repeated angrily.

Shirley didn't answer, but silently lifted up her sleeves.

On her wrist hung an eagle-shaped bracelet.

Frank was slightly startled.

He recognized it. It was the magic bracelet of the Castel family and the symbol of Castel's core servants.

It has only one function, which is used for positioning within a certain distance.

In the past, the Castel family had a core following of almost everyone.

Old Frank and Mrs. Mina also had one when they were members of the Mages and Maid Corps, but they took it back when they were kicked out of the family.

It is obvious that Castell values ​​Shirley's group of people very much and has already acquiesced that they will be his core followers in the future.

However, several hours have passed since the earliest attack, and half a day has passed since the real divine judgment was dispatched.

Even they were chased and intercepted by the real Judgment Army and fled for a long time, and even fought more than once.

But as of now, there is no news about the Castel family, which can't help but make Old Frank somewhat silent.

There was so much commotion in the outer city, it was impossible for the Castel family not to know that something would happen to Rose.

"Father, we have been abandoned once again."

Shirley said softly.

"No, it's impossible. The family must be involved in something. Maybe they are negotiating with the church now!"

"Take Sally and Lisa quickly!"

Frank shook his head stubbornly, as if trying to convince himself.

Shirley wanted to say something, but suddenly she raised her sword and looked out the window at the courtyard.

With a huge roar, the courtyard door was smashed open from the outside.

The sound of messy footsteps came, and faintly, a flattering voice could be heard:

"Everyone...my lords..."

"Those people just entered this courtyard. They were all injured and looked hurried. They must be the evil ones from the Rose Society!"

"Hmm... Not bad. I can already smell the Rose Club smell on them. You're not bad!"

A hoarse voice came over.

"Then...sir...can you let me go?"

The flattering voice said cautiously.

"sure."

After the hoarse voice finished speaking, there was a sound of a long sword entering flesh from outside.

Along with a scream, the flattering voice completely disappeared.

Dazzling lightning illuminated everything in the yard.

Entering the courtyard were seven or eight figures wearing gray robes with chains on their hands and feet.

They are the local judicial team!

Lightning illuminated the courtyard, the house, and the figures of Shirley and the others.

Through the broken window, several cruel eyes looked over, one of which narrowed his eyes slightly:

"I recognize them, old Frank and Mina, they were peripheral members of the Rose Society when I entered the Judgment Corps."

"That girl should be his daughter, and if I remember correctly, she is still a supernatural person."

The leading judge sneered:

"The Judgment Knights said that all members of the Rose Society who resist will be executed."

"Looking at them like this, I'm afraid they have resisted a lot?"

After saying that, his expression turned cold, and a bloodthirsty excitement flashed in his eyes. He said viciously:

"Kill them!"

After saying that, they drew their weapons and rushed to the hut.

Shirley also clenched the silver sword.

She stood at the door of the hut, and her cold eyes seemed to be firm, like a knight protecting her family.

The battle soon broke out between the girl and the judge.

Shirley didn’t know how many times she had repelled these attacking judges.

She also didn’t know how many times these people rushed up in a swarm.

Although they were all extraordinary people, the sacred chain would eventually limit the strength of extraordinary people, and these people were not her opponents.

However, even so, with their rich combat experience, these people could wear her down bit by bit.

There was a sharp pain in her lower left abdomen, and another tricky sword of the judge left a sword wound on her body.

Her maid uniform was torn, and the dripping blood had completely dyed the clothes red.

Shirley felt that her strength was getting weaker and weaker.

However, the judges who besieged her were still not in a hurry, even if the balance of victory was tilting towards them...

They were playing with me, they were enjoying watching me weaken a little bit, and they were waiting for me to fall down.

Looking at those playful and excited eyes, Shirley quickly understood the enemy’s intentions.

“Shirley! Go! Don’t worry about us!”

Behind her, her father’s anxious voice came.

Shirley did not move.

Her father, mother, and sisters were behind her, and she couldn't abandon them.

Even if the end of this battle was death, she would die with her family.

The rain was pouring down, and dense raindrops dripped down the girl's cheeks.

The enemy's grin, the pain of the wound, the cold raindrops... made Shirley feel as if she had returned to that night ten years ago.

On that rainy night, her parents, who had devoted all their strength to Castel, were driven out of the manor after losing their strength.

She had a high fever and her whole body was sore, but she could only wander with her parents in the heavy rain, avoiding those enemies who dared not to attack Castel but dared to attack them, the servants who were once loyal to Castel.

The beautiful memories of the manor in childhood were like a dream. When they lost their value and Castel needed an object to vent his anger, the parents who had no power became victims.

Castel abandoned them.

The family that once called them a part of the family abandoned them.

Ten years later, the Castel family found them again because Castel also encountered a crisis and Castel needed new blood.

How ironic.

When they were not needed, they were abandoned, and when they were needed, they were remembered again.

And now, when the crisis came again, Castel really abandoned them again.

Shirley didn't know what she was feeling now.

Perhaps the warm smile of the eldest lady and the intimate cunning after the prank in the past few days also touched her heart, and a flash of hope appeared inexplicably at a certain moment.

Of course, it was just a flash.

Castel was still Castel after all.

When the iron fist of the church fell, they finally abandoned themselves.

Shirley hated extraordinary powers.

She hated extraordinary powers very much.

If her parents didn't have extraordinary powers at the beginning, maybe they could be ordinary people safely, and they would not be absorbed as core members by Castel, and eventually end up like this.

If she didn't have extraordinary powers, perhaps her parents would not hope to let her return to Castel again, but would leave Bolde with her and live their own lives.

However, Shirley was eager for extraordinary powers at this moment.

If she could be stronger, perhaps she could defeat these enemies now, and she could leave with her parents and sisters, leave here... and never come back.

Unfortunately... there is no if.

The girl's power gradually weakened, almost reaching the limit.

Finally, she exhausted the last bit of strength, and the long sword in her hand was directly picked up by the attacking judge.

The judge kicked over and kicked Shirley in the lower abdomen. She couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood, and fell directly to the ground, unable to get up again.

"Shirley!"

Behind her, there was an anxious cry from her father.

Shirley saw her father struggling to run over with his seriously injured body and protecting her in front of her.

Just like when she was a child...

"What a touching father-daughter love..."

The judge walked over with a grin.

Their expressions were ferocious, no different from before they became judges, except for the iron shackles of the Holy Court on their hands and feet.

But it was obvious that the iron shackles could not save the girl and her family.

They were a group of mad dogs raised by the church.

Now, they were released.

The judge raised his sword high and looked at Xueli and Old Frank with indifference.

In the house, as the judge rushed in, the sisters' cries became louder and louder.

Looking at the cold sword, Xueli closed her eyes gently, and a trace of despair surged in her heart.

It's over.

Everything is over.

However, at the moment when the sword was about to pierce Old Frank's chest, accompanied by the sound of breaking through the air, a crossbow arrow flew out and directly hit the head of the judge who shot.

The force of the crossbow arrow was so great that it directly took the judge away, staggered a few steps, and fell to the ground, and there was no sound anymore.

In the heavy rain, the dilapidated hut suddenly ushered in a period of silence.

Following closely, a young and cold female voice said:

"You guys, try to touch my people again."

The evening update may be a little later.

Yesterday, I changed some of the plots in chapters 57-59, which did not affect the overall situation. I mainly revised the motivation of the servants' return to make the plot more reasonable.
