The nightingale represents passionate love, pursuing beautiful things, and not being afraid of death.
Rose represents desire and ambition, symbolizing beauty, power and material enjoyment.
These two things should not be mixed together, but the Nightingale organization still arranged a stronghold in the Rose District of Tenberg, the capital of Byron.
Perhaps they are passionately pursuing their desires, or perhaps they are just pawns manipulated by power.
But they are not the only ones who have pursuit and ambition. Every life has similar qualities, and the difference is only the courage to compact the gunpowder.
"Bang, bang..."
The Kingdom agents were scattered at various exits of the building at No. 42 Rose Street, shooting alternately, maintaining fire suppression on the exits at all times.
They had no intention of rushing forward to engage in close combat, and they did not care whether members of the Nightingale organization would use the secret passage to escape.
The reason why this happened is that the Kingdom's Bureau of Investigation has relevant regulations that stipulate that agents have the right not to enter narrow and secret passages to fight before receiving an emergency order.
This rule comes from many bloody lessons. The artillery hidden in the secret passage has blasted many Kingdom agents.
"This damn smoke, it would be great if someone invented smokeless gunpowder."
Due to the close distance between the warring parties, the hit rate of the muskets was greatly increased, but the gunpowder burned The smoke generated also greatly affected the vision of both parties.
In addition, the bursting gunfire also obscured all kinds of sounds. Even Kingdom agents with rich combat experience could not effectively determine the opponent's specific situation.
After several rounds of shooting, the agents holding bayonets took the opportunity to replace their guns with silver-lead mixed projectiles.
If it were not for the high price of silver-lead mixed projectiles, those who dared to rush out for close combat at this time would definitely taste the taste of specially-made projectiles.
But even though the Nightingale organization knew that the Kingdom agents had silver-lead mixed projectiles, they still sent two special beings to prepare to forcefully cross the line.
Because when the military police guards arrived with small artillery, solid bullets and explosive bullets were enough to break all their illusions.
So under the cover of gunfire and smoke, the two special beings grabbed their melee weapons and rushed out without hesitation.
When they rushed out of the door, more than twenty members of the Nightingale organization followed closely behind them with bayonet swords and scimitars, turning the fiery smoke back to the cold and bloody place again.
"Ah..., it's the Blighter..."
Along with a scream, Zhou Weide vaguely saw two tall and thin figures in the smoke.
Their skin is as rough as withered tree bark, their muscles are as twisted as entangled vines, and their seemingly emaciated bodies contain strength far beyond that of ordinary humans.
“Stop free firing, volley of silver and lead pellets."
Inspector Gary's words did not reach the ears of every agent, but most of the agents subconsciously looked at the raised sword.
Waiting for the sword to be stabbed The moment he swung down, a burst of gunfire rang out, and the two Blighters immediately fell to the ground.
However, even though the Blighters had been knocked down, the agents still did not dare to be careless. They were worried about one round. The volley cannot completely kill the difficult special beings.
But the close combat personnel of the Nightingale organization have already rushed forward, making it difficult for the agents to launch a second round of volley.
"Vade, we need to relocate immediately to prevent the Nightingale organization from prioritizing the assassination of the commander. ”
Detective Gary’s actual combat experience was correct, but the distance between the two warring parties was too close. Before they could go to the new bunker, Nightingale’s melee members had already pounced on them.
Faced with this situation, Zhou Weide decisively swung his rapier to counterattack.
The strength brought by his self-control ability allowed him to easily deflect the opponent's rapier and cut it off with the help of the reaction force.

But behind the fallen Nightingale member, there was a straight and long arm. The muscles are bulging like vines, and there is blood flowing on the sword in his hand.
If Zhou Weide saw this scene before time travel, he would be so scared that his whole body would be paralyzed and his mind would go blank. .
But now he has overcome the fear in his heart and gained the support of courage.
Therefore, he pulled the trigger calmly as in training, and the next moment he was burning. The gunpowder and hot projectiles hit the withered man's body hard
"Bang..."
The moment the gunfire rang out, Zhou Weide quickly lay down and then turned over to hide. Entered the nearby store.
The owner and customers of the nearby store were in a hurry and did not even close the store door, which provided Zhou Weide and the detectives with enough buffer space. > While loading gunpowder and projectiles, Zhou Weide looked back in the direction of Inspector Gary.
Inspector Gary's condition was not very good. A bayonet was nailed to the connection between his shoulder and chest.
He endured the pain and signaled to the surrounding agents that he was fine, asking them to continue to be vigilant to prevent members of the Blighters and Nightingales from breaking out of the encirclement.
Seeing this situation, Zhou Weide. Without thinking much, he stood up and went to Inspector Gary's side.
"Inspector, stay relaxed and don't move around. Taking out the rapier is not a good option now. "
"Vade, you fought back beautifully. It seems that you are an excellent warrior. "
After Inspector Gary noticed Zhou Weide approaching, he pulled out his musket and threw it over, signaling Zhou Weide to help him load the ammunition.
During this process, Zhou Weide suddenly smelled a familiar smell.The smell, that special smell of fear and blood, was also the smell he remembered most deeply in more than ten years.
He found that Inspector Gary's palms were trembling slightly, the muscles were uncontrollably congested, and the rapid breathing diluted not only the pain, but also the physical strength of the exercise.
"Detective, your current condition is no longer suitable for fighting."
Combat experience will not make people forget their fear, and Detective Gary, a veteran, will still be nervous and timid.
But this does not mean that he lacks courage. His ability to direct the agents to continue fighting, rather than disrupting the rhythm of the battle and giving priority to rescuing himself, proves that he has temporarily suppressed his fear.
Perhaps this is why Zhou Weide can smell the smell of fear and blood. The fear contained in the courage and bravery that blooms in fear is in line with the meaning of his dream home.
"Vade, you are agile. If the Blighter joins the battle again, please repel it as soon as possible."
What Inspector Gary was worried about did not happen. It wasn't that the two Blighters were completely dead, but that the Military Police Guards had arrived.
When a guard of one hundred and thirty men appeared at the street entrance carrying two small horse-drawn bronze cannons, everyone knew that the battle was about to end.
"Bang, bang, bang..."
Intense gunshots continued to sound. The military police guards used the classic three-stage shooting tactics to easily eliminate the Nightingale members who were attacking the defense line. .
"Solid ammunition loading, target building gate No. 42."
After the roar of artillery, a big hole was blasted out of the closed door. The military police guards advanced one after another, bringing powerful sense of oppression.
In front of the muskets and artillery, not only did the Blighter look small, but Zhou Weide also felt his own fragility.
"Alchemy ignites pride, and cannonballs cure mania. This is really a warm world."
