Chapter 31: Chapter 31: Last Words
Riding a horse and strolling on the Katze Plain, breathing the familiar air, Jimmy couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
Just a little over a week, when I first crossed into this unfamiliar world, I was still a weak and sickly kid.
And now coming here again, I have become a soldier heading to the battlefield.
Although this was not surprising, it was still a little nostalgic for him.
Jimmy retracted his gaze from the distance and looked at the team that was taking the action this time, including himself.
There are only six people.
According to normal standards, a team of this size would be unable to even snipe the Imperial Knights.
I guess any monster that jumps out would be difficult to deal with.
As for the leader of the team, given Joseph's status as a noble young master, it was "natural" for him to take the responsibility.
Looking at the other four people, they are all unfamiliar faces.
Judging from the aura they exude; it is obvious that they are not comparable to low-level warriors.
But they look like warriors. To be more precise, these people are obviously Joseph's guards.
And according to Jimmy's observation, as soon as the team entered the Katze Plain, the leader Joseph seemed to know the way like an old horse.
Once you have chosen a direction, move forward quickly without hesitation.
It was as if he already knew where the destination was.
With a sneer in his heart, Jimmy rode his horse and followed the team slowly.
After advancing for another half an hour, the team had already reached the area of the Katze Plain that was close to the border.
This is already the edge of the place where the Imperial Knights often appear.
"We're almost here." At this moment, Joseph suddenly stopped.
The four guards remained silent, so Jimmy couldn't help but smile and agree.
"Hmm? Are we finally here?"
"Yes, we're finally here." Joseph replied with a twisted smile on his face.
"Here is your burial place."
After he finished speaking, there was no expression of fear on Jimmy's face as it should have.
But Joseph did not get angry but took out a horn from his body.
The loud trumpet sounded across the open plain.
After doing all this, he looked at Jimmy with pity and sighed in a pretentious manner.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk...what a pity."
"Originally, even if a lowly person like you annoyed me, I, out of compassion, would at most break your hands and feet."
"Really? Thank you so much for your kindness." Jimmy thanked him with a smile.
"I am different from Master Joseph. I am crueller to people I hate."
"I haven't finished yet, how dare you, a lowly person, butt in!" Joseph could not help but scolded unhappily when he was interrupted in the middle of his speech.
"Oh, then go on." Jimmy made a gesture of invitation.
"Where was I just now... Oh, by the way, I, the merciful young master, originally only wanted to break your arms and legs, but..."
At this point, Joseph seemed to suddenly think of something disgusting, and a look of disgust appeared on his face.
"A man like Gazef is already an eyesore."
"I didn't expect you to appear again."
As he said this, he glanced at Jimmy with the same expression.
"Even my father noticed your presence before you climbed high enough..."
"We need to pull you down first and drop you to death."
Having said so much, let me summarize it in one sentence.
That is, the nobles have already noticed Jimmy's existence, especially his contact with Gazef two days ago, which made them think that Jimmy has sided with the pro-king faction.
In this case, they must nip the threat in the bud before Jimmy can gain a firm foothold.
"Are you done?"
Seeing that Joseph hadn't reacted yet, Jimmy added further explanation.
"Have you given your last words?"
"Untouchable, are you so scared that you're talking nonsense? Your last words should be yours..."
Before Joseph could finish his words, he felt a flash before his eyes.
Jimmy rushed to him at a speed that the four guards could not react in time.
After mastering the application of Chi, Jimmy's combat power increased by 20 points.
Adding the recovery over the past two days, his combat power index is now 65 points.
Although those guards were quite skilled, their strength was only around 30 points.
By the time they realized something was wrong and drew their swords, Jimmy's fist had already hit Joseph in the face.
Before he could even utter a scream, he flew backwards.
"Master!"
Several guards exclaimed in unison, two ran towards the fallen Joseph, and the other two stood in front of Jimmy with a vigilant look on their faces.
"You really are worthy of being the eldest son of a wealthy family." Jimmy shook his numb arms and sneered.
"And you're still carrying this kind of magical equipment."
As Joseph's strength value was only 10 points, Jimmy's attack was aimed directly at his face.
If hit head-on, even if he doesn't die, he will lose consciousness immediately.
But at the moment when it hit his face, a shield-like energy suddenly appeared in front of Jimmy's fist, blocking most of the force.
Therefore, Joseph was not seriously injured, but one side of his face was still somewhat swollen.
