Chapter 377

However, Zhao Hai didn’t go to save Ryan. He didn’t want to expose his strength too early. From the looks of it, these people were going to use Ryan to threaten him. For the time being, Ryan would be fine.

The mercenaries ‘attacks were very fierce, and it could be seen that they often worked together and cooperated well. Most importantly, from the way these mercenaries attacked, they seemed to be real mercenaries and not regular soldiers.

Regular soldiers and mercenaries were two different things. Soldiers were usually on the battlefield. When there was a head-on war, their fighting style was very special. They used the weapons in their hands to kill the enemy as quickly as possible.

But mercenaries were different. Mercenaries usually didn’t go to the battlefield, and the enemies they faced might not all be human. So, he would use all means to deal with the enemy. Even if he couldn’t kill them, he would at least injure them.

Zhao Hai was getting anxious as he saw the mercenaries fighting. He didn’t want to waste too much time with them, so he and meg immediately started using magic to attack.

This time, Zhao Hai used a wind magic. Wind magic was fast and more powerful in this small space. Meg was also a wind magician, so she naturally used wind magic to attack. Since she couldn’t go to ruien’s place, she had to fight with him.

Zhao Hai finally realized how powerful Shunyi was. Just as Xu Wanying had said, Shunyi really lived up to the name of the eight-armed demon. He threw out hidden weapons one after another. No one knew how many hidden weapons he had on him. In short, he threw them endlessly. Moreover, his hidden weapons were all poisoned, which made the mercenaries exhausted.

With the help of Zhao Hai and Meg’s magic, more and more of the mercenaries were injured. The leader of the mercenaries saw the situation and immediately greeted, ” “Retreat!” He then led the mercenaries away.

In the blink of an eye, all the mercenaries in the restaurant had left. There was nothing on the floor except for some broken tables and chairs and some hidden weapons.

At this time, the waiter hiding outside the door also came in, trembling. Looking at the situation in the restaurant, he had a sad face. Shunyi was about to go check on Ryan, but Zhao Hai stopped him, &Quot; there’s no need to go. They’ve been captured, and the guards are all dead. Buddy, come over and clean up this place. Don’t worry, I’ll compensate you. Oh, and remember to get someone to bury those guards. I’ll pay you extra. &Quot;

Hearing Zhao Hai’s words, the shop assistant’s expression became better. He immediately responded and was about to start packing up, but Shunyi stopped him. He had to retrieve his hidden weapons first, or else he would hurt the shop assistant.

It was the first time Zhao Hai and the others had seen Shunyi retrieve hidden weapons, and they were all very curious. They saw Shunyi take out a few stones, place them on the ground, and walk back and forth a few times, and then the hidden weapons were all collected by him.

Zhao Hai understood with a single glance. What Shunyi was holding in his hand was definitely something like a magnet, which was why he was able to put away those hidden weapons so quickly. Zhao Hai also noticed that Shunyi was wearing a pair of leather gloves. The leather gloves were tightly attached to his skin and seemed to be very flexible.

This time, he was finally out in the open. No wonder Shunyi’s hidden weapons were poisonous, but he wasn’t afraid of being hurt. It was because of this pair of gloves.

However, Zhao Hai didn’t ask much. Seeing that Shunyi had packed up, they got up and went back to their rooms. At the same time, he told the waiter to bring the dishes they ordered to the room and gave him a silver coin as a tip, which made the waiter very happy.

Zhao Hai first went to check on the guards who were killed. The injuries on their bodies were very simple. It seemed that they did not resist and were all killed by a knife. They were all eating when they were killed.

Xu Wanying and Shunyi were also looking at the scene. After a while, Shunyi said, ” “Young master, they seemed to have been poisoned before they were killed.”

Xu Wanying nodded. &Quot; I killed them with an ordinary dagger. It’s nothing special. &Quot;

Zhao Hai nodded and turned to Shunyi,”Check if there’s any poison in their food.”

Shunyi responded. He looked at the food that had not been taken away and shook his head after a long while. &Quot; young master, there is no poison in the food. It should be from somewhere else. The poison they were poisoned with was not a high-level poison. It was just a poison that could make people faint for a short time. Perhaps it was because they were unconscious for such a short time that the mercenaries killed them. &Quot;

Zhao Hai nodded his head and asked about Cai ‘er’s situation. However, Cai’ er said that the mercenaries had already left her surveillance range, which was out of Zhao Hai’s expectations.

The few of them returned to their rooms. Lola said with a heavy face, ” &Quot; brother hai, do you think Duke Ryan is behind this? ”

Zhao Hai nodded. &Quot; that must be it. We don’t have any grudges with anyone in the Roson Empire. It must be Duke Ryan. But I really didn’t expect him to have such a method. &Quot;

&Quot; that’s not strange, young master, ” Xu Wanying said in a deep voice. &Quot; each of those Archdukes has a mercenary group under their control. Although these mercenary groups usually do missions like ordinary mercenaries, they’ll immediately go on duty at the order of those people. These people might be the mercenaries under Duke Ryan. &Quot;
