While the battle in the yard was full of twists and turns, gunshots also rang out in Fors's room.
Hobert wasn't worried about the battle there. At most, the enemy would only send a Sequence 7 to deal with Fors. She and Xio had the enchanted revolver, so there wouldn't be much danger.
At this moment, the "Disciplinary Knight" realized that in the previous battle, they had three opportunities to kill Hobert, but Hobert had reversed the situation each time.
It was certain that Hobert had many magical items on him, making it difficult to kill him for a while.
The "Disciplinary Knight" decisively said, "Withdraw!"
It wasn't that he didn't have the determination to defeat Hobert, but they had lost the advantage of surprise. The most important thing was that Hobert himself was much stronger than the intelligence suggested. Entanglement at this time was not the best choice.
The "Disciplinary Knight" noticed that the "Baron of Corruption" was not in good condition. If they continued to entangle, the "Baron of Corruption" would definitely be injured.
After figuring out Hobert's details, it would be safer to find an opportunity to attack again.
These mercenaries had all been on Beyonder battlefields, and they couldn't be compared with the Beyonders of the Tamara family in Backlund who were used to bullying the weak and fearing the strong.
After the "Disciplinary Knight" ordered the retreat, the "Baron of Corruption" grabbed the "Pyromaniac" lying on the ground with one hand and carried the Sequence 8 on his back, whose flames had been extinguished but whose mind had not fully recovered.
Hobert immediately made the posture of embracing the sun: "Sacred..."
At the same time, the "Disciplinary Knight" punched out: "Death!"
This punch was unavoidable, and Hobert simply poured his spirituality into the "Traveler's Blade": "Death!"
He wanted to exchange injuries with the "Disciplinary Knight".
The two of them hit each other's heart. The "Disciplinary Knight" had a rib broken and took two steps back.
Hobert was knocked away again, and a piece of his chest collapsed: the "death" "recorded" was still quite different from real "death".
Under the cover of the "Disciplinary Knight", the "Baron of Corruption" jumped out of the yard with two teammates.
Whoosh~
Hobert's injuries prevented him from using "Blink" in time, and he knocked down a courtyard wall again.
When he stood up from the pile of bricks, the enemy had already escaped a distance.
"Heal!"
The injury on Hobert's chest recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then he rose into the air and chased the enemy in a low-flying posture.
The "Disciplinary Knight's" retreat exceeded Hobert's expectations. In his opinion, the "Disciplinary Knight's" advantage had not been lost. His retreat was enough to show his caution. Such an enemy was the most difficult to deal with. Hobert planned to leave as many of the "Disciplinary Knight's" helpers as possible.
Seeing the four people running away, Hobert immediately said, "Lightning Strike!"
At the same time, the "Disciplinary Knight" also discovered Hobert chasing after him: "Flying is forbidden here!"
As the lightning strike fell, Hobert also fell from mid-air. He saw the "Disciplinary Knight" quickly unfold a scroll, and a bright halo appeared in mid-air, helping the "Baron of Corruption" block the "Lightning Strike".
Hobert sighed: a mercenary squad leader cannot be without magical items.
He didn't use it before, just because he judged that it was not the best time to use it.
Hobert, who had gained nothing, quickly returned to the yard. He came to Fors's room and saw two figures, one tall and one short, and a corpse lying on the ground.
The short figure smiled and said, "I didn't expect Feynapotter to be so dangerous."
Hobert smiled, "The king has offered such a high reward, I am their hunting target before I become a demigod.
Um, I suddenly had a good idea: secretly become a demigod and wait for them to come to my door."
While Hobert was talking, he used the ability of the "Spirituality Wine Glass" to gather the corpses at the door and speed up the precipitation of Beyonder characteristics.
The Beyonder killed by Fors and Xio precipitated a Beyonder characteristic of a "Barbarian".
Hobert collected all the Beyonder characteristics and handed the "Barbarian" Beyonder characteristic to Xio and Fors: "This is your trophy, but you don't need it. I am willing to spend 600 pounds to buy it."
Hobert looked at Xio: "It can also be converted into one-half of the Beyonder characteristic of an 'Interrogator'."
Fors was slightly taken aback: "Can't it be converted into the Beyonder characteristic of an 'Astrologer'?"
Hobert thought to himself: "Wait a little longer, and your teacher will bring the materials to your door."
He said, "It's also possible. I just noticed that Xio's potion seems to be digested soon."
"It has been digested." Xio smiled. "Okay, help me convert it into Beyonder ingredients for the 'Interrogator'. After I prepare for a few more days, I will pay you the other 600 pounds, as well as Fors's 300 pounds."
Fors shook her head. "You killed the enemy mainly just now, this trophy should belong to you."
Xio didn't continue this topic. She already had a plan to give Fors at least 200 pounds!
She said, "The greatest contribution was made by this pistol."
Xio handed it to Hobert reluctantly. "If, I mean if I want to buy it..."
"1400 pounds," Hobert directly quoted a very favorable price.
Generally speaking, magical items at the Sequence 7 level have a premium of 300 to 600 pounds. The price Hobert gave was only a premium of 200 pounds. The key is that after the seal of the "Nation of Disorder", the negative effects of the revolver are not very strong.
Xio nodded and began to calculate her savings. She got the Sequence 7 potion formula from the Masked Man and didn't need to buy it again.
Adding the harvest tonight, even after the promotion, she still had hundreds of pounds of savings. She could consider saving money or borrowing Fors's money to buy this pistol.
At this time, there was a noisy footstep outside the yard, and Xio immediately used the "Traveler's Gate" to leave.
Hobert came to the yard. It was Philip and Seel who brought the male servants, holding sticks or kitchen knives to support the Earl.
After seeing the "scarred" yard, they were surprised at what had happened here just now.
"Bury these four corpses," Hobert ordered. "Repair the courtyard wall again tomorrow, and repair the windows in my room. I will live in Miss Fors's place today."
Helen, who was outside the courtyard gate, rolled her eyes and thought, "Tch, still in the mood to be intimate."
Seeing that the battle was over, she turned and left.
Helen saw Hobert's strength just now. She knew why Ms. Monica said she couldn't kill Hobert. It was true that she couldn't kill him. Even Ms. Monica might not be able to kill this kid!
After the male servants took the corpses away to bury them, the yard fell silent again.
Fors in the room reluctantly said, "I'm going back to Backlund."
Her room in Backlund was so gloomy that she really didn't want to go back.
Hobert smiled, "The bed is big enough, it's no problem for two people to sleep on it."
