Chapter 124: Lots of Suspicions
Baisa's archery skills directly destroyed the confidence of the other contestants, and none of them wanted to compete.
Lugo stood there dumbly, unable to believe his eyes.
Even if it’s a 100% moving bull’s-eye hit rate, or if the three arrows are fired at once, what is the last arrow chasing the front arrow???
The arrow originally shot to the left was caught up by the back arrow, and its direction veered directly to the right, and it still landed in the bull's eye.
What is this concept?
This means that on the battlefield, even if the enemy is hiding behind a bunker, Baisa is still able to use this archery technique of chasing the front arrow with the back arrow, changing the normal shooting path of the arrow, and attacking and killing the enemy behind the bunker.
This is no longer a question of accuracy in archery, but a direct breakthrough in the conventional warfare of bows and arrows, which is beyond the reach of ordinary soldiers. Without strong innate talent and unremitting efforts, it is absolutely impossible.
When Lugo was stunned, Baisa walked over and patted him on the shoulder, jokingly saying: "Next time you shoot a hare, remember to share one with me."
"Grandma, you are a god of war! Give you a magic weapon, I doubt you can shoot down the dragon from the sky!" Lugo punched Baisa on the shoulder hard, laughed and hugged him.
There were four rounds in total in the archery competition, but there was actually no suspense anymore. With Baisa’s almost crushing archery skills in front, the contestants gave up on treatment and started messing around one by one.
There were also people sitting on the ground, showing everyone how to shoot arrows with a bow stretched out with their feet, which made the whole audience burst into laughter.
Kino was watching Baisa the whole time, and Baisa was chatting and laughing with his companions, nothing out of the ordinary.
At the end of the competition, Baixa's results were far ahead, Lugo ranked second, and there is no need to mention the subsequent rankings.
Kino walked up to Baisa, glanced at him one last time, withdrew his gaze, nodded and said: "Your archery skills are indeed admirable. Yesterday, Jashan Hechito gave me a bottle of one-star Eagle Eye potion.
, just as a reward for you, after drinking it, your static and dynamic vision can be permanently enhanced."
Lugo took a breath: "Baisa, you've made a lot of money, a one-star permanent potion is worth 20 gold moons!"
The effect of the eagle eye potion is to greatly enhance static and dynamic vision. In layman's terms, it means that you can see farther and see faster movements clearly.
From the effect point of view, the Eagle Eye potion is not as powerful as Lugo's thunder potion, but for Baisa, who is a marksman himself, this is a tailor-made potion, and his battlefield abilities will be greatly improved accordingly.
Enhanced several times or even ten times.
The contestants were very sad, but they had no regrets. Even if they could turn back time, they would not be able to defeat Baisa. There was no doubt about the ownership of this bottle of potion.
Baisa was in a very complicated mood at this time. On the one hand, he was glad that he had a brother like Paladin. The two of them planned secretly and escaped from the clutches of Kino.
But at the same time, Baisa also regretted why he shot out the letter in the first place.
Kino is a terrible person, but his care for his loyal people is beyond words. Why did he do such a stupid thing?
In order not to let Kino notice anything strange, Baisa deliberately made himself excited - in fact, being able to become a transcendent really made him very excited, and he also expressed his gratitude to Kino.
After the game, the soldiers who were sent back came back. They searched around the Twilight City, but found no trace of Centurion Bar anywhere, and there was no record of him leaving the city at any of the city gates.
Soon, Kino issued a wanted order, offering a reward of 1,000 silver moons for Baal's capture, and sent the wanted order to 11 towns within the jurisdiction of Twilight City for a comprehensive search.
1,000 silver moons can not only be used to buy a house in a good location, but also allow oneself or his children to go to school for further studies. Under the temptation of this huge sum of money, in addition to civilians looking for Baal everywhere, many professional bounty hunters also took notice of the news.
.
But a full seven days have passed and no one has found Baal. This guy seems to have disappeared from the world without a trace.
…
Back on the night of the 12th, in Kino’s bedroom, he was wearing pajamas and reading the search reports that came from everywhere.
The window was opened a crack, and the little black cat squeezed in, shook off the snow on the windowsill, and then entered the house.
The shadows changed, Hanyi returned to his human form, and reported: "There is no residual scent of Baal in the city, and his movement track cannot be captured. I have also checked all the city gates, and there is no record of leaving the city."
Kino put down the report in his hand and fell into deep thought.
Barr was originally one of Brooke's subordinates. He was suspicious of the explosion at the banquet and Brooke's death. He took advantage of Lesakhar's on-site investigation to shoot an arrow to inform him. Later, when he learned about the archery competition, he thought he was being targeted.
So he absconded on the night before the game...This series of events makes sense logically.
However, based on Kino’s understanding of Baal, and based on this guy’s poor IQ, how could he escape from Twilight City without leaving any trace? Even the smell was completely wiped out, and even Han Yi couldn’t find him.
This is really strange.
Could it be that he usually pretends to be stupid but is actually a very smart person?
Or is there another accomplice who advises him?
or...
Kino asked in a deep voice: "How is the situation over there in Baixa?"
Hanyi replied: "According to your request, I have been secretly watching him for the past seven days, but I didn't find anything unusual. His life is very regular, training during the day and drinking at night."
Chino: “Who are you drinking with?”
Hanyi: “Mainly Lugo, Paladin, and some officers.”
"Paladin..." Kino thought for a moment, his eyes getting darker and darker, "Did Paladin go to Puluo before?"
Hanyi recalled the record list of the city gate defenders, nodded and said: "Yes, on the 4th of Huixue - that is, the day before the archery competition, he went to Puluo and came back on the 8th of Huixue."
Chino: “Why did he go to Puluo?”
Hanyi: "The record says that he was a businessman and sent a slaughtered sheep to a local nobleman in Puluo."
Paladin will periodically report on its business plans. Chino has an impression of this order. It is true and the time is consistent.
but...
Sheep for slaughter...
Kino continued to ask: "Did Paladin leave the city through normal procedures?"
Han Yi nodded: "Yes, at least according to the record, it was a normal procedure. He left the city from the East Gate that day, and the original text of the guard record was 'the pass documents are complete, and the goods have been inspected and are correct, and permission is allowed to be released'."
Chinuo made a gesture, signaling Hanyi to turn into a cat, and then went out to the railing and called downstairs: "Guard, go and find the person in charge of the east gate on duty on the 4th of Huixue to see me. Thank you."
Fifteen minutes later, the corps commander on duty that day was brought into the office by the guards. He said with a respectful expression: "This is our first meeting. Mr. Administrator, do you have anything to do with me?"
Chino: "Did you see Paladin on the 4th day of Huixue?"
The corps commander said without hesitation: "Yes, he left the city from the east gate to do business. I was on duty that day."
Chino: “What was he carrying in his cart?”
Captain Wu still thinks about: "Sheep, a full car."
Chino: "Very smelly, bloody, and ready to be slaughtered."
Yes.
