Free Web NovelChapter 1091: Chapter 1051: Hidden Weapons
"Hehe, since none of you are stepping forward, if no one is coming out, then I shall continue with what I intend to do."
For a moment, after Lin Yi’s words fell, everyone’s gaze turned his way. Though their hearts were full of indignation, they truly had no way to deal with Lin Yi.
As a result, they could only stare at Lin Yi, wanting to see what tricks he might play, why he summoned them here, and what he intended to do?
Seeing this scene, Lin Yi nodded in satisfaction, then directly waved his hand, and suddenly a large coil of rope was thrown onto the ground in front of him.
With the sudden appearance of such a large coil of rope, materializing out of thin air before everyone’s eyes, everyone was dumbfounded, each looking at Lin Yi with eyes full of disbelief!
Meanwhile, some people even started rubbing their eyes incessantly, wondering whether their vision had just deceived them, what did they just see?
Where did this rope come from?
Could it have been hidden on him?
Yet judging by his attire, it didn’t seem likely; there was no place on him that could store so much rope.
If he truly had hidden this much rope on his body, these people would have noticed it right from the start.
But if it wasn’t from him, then where did it come from?
Could it be from inside this room?
But there is no presence of rope in this room. Besides, where Lin Yi is sitting, there’s no place to hide such rope.
In this atmosphere, Lin Yi’s voice calmly spoke again:
"Since none of you refuted me, let me say what I intend to do.
Now listen carefully, each one of you, tie up the person next to you. After binding the other, let the person beside you tie you up.
Finally, bind yourselves into a single line. Do you understand what I mean?"
Hiss...
Once Lin Yi spoke these words, everyone couldn’t help but take a deep breath in shock—is this his intention?
Does he want to bind all of us together?
Could he truly be someone from the Right Country?
If not a right-countryer, why would he do this?
Clearly, he means to capture all of us.
If he binds us all up, what’s the point of fighting a battle? We might as well surrender. All our generals are here; who will command the soldiers outside?
Without a general’s command, the only result awaiting them is scattering and fleeing, and the whole army will fall apart.
Furthermore, if the army collapses in their hands, the result awaiting them is predictable—an extremely harsh punishment awaits them.
Additionally, as for the matter of long weapons, they likely will never have any chance again, and they’ll become the eternal criminals of Zhao Country.
Thinking about this, the gaze they cast became filled with hatred, yet none of them made a single move.
Meanwhile, many quietly reached for the Treasure Sword or saber at their waist.
They all thought about taking advantage of Lin Yi’s unpreparedness to take him out. After all, it’s a matter of life and death; rather than facing certain death, it’d be better to make a daring attempt, perhaps to clear a path to survival.
Although he is incredibly formidable, surely our side’s people aren’t completely powerless against him? Moreover, our group isn’t far from the door; given the circumstances, maybe fighting might let us break through.
Once they break through, and call upon troops to encircle this place; regardless of his abilities, what could he possibly do?
Just as those few previously imagined, pulling the powerful crossbow over, aiming at him and firing a few bolts straightaway; even the strongest would likely be taken out directly.
As for whether it injures the innocent or our own, at this moment, they can’t be bothered about such matters.
Upon these thoughts, everyone began exchanging glances silently, and as if anticipating such a scene, Lin Yi leaped directly and seated himself very close to the doorway.
Sitting there immediately gave off a sensation akin to a lone man holding a pass, able to fend off ten thousand.
This once again made everyone unable to avoid taking a deep breath—they hadn’t expected such speed from him.
In just a blink, he moved ten meters away, a speed that none of them could match. With such speed, do they still have a chance to escape?
The answer is certainly yes; they would definitely have a chance, after all, there’s nearly a hundred people present, and a brawl among hundreds would definitely stall him; at that time, running away is still possible.
Moreover, though Lin Yi blocked the door, the hall is surrounded by several windows; without a door, can’t they escape through the window?
Indeed, immediately someone quietly began moving toward the windows, and in this tension, just as Lin Yi suddenly raised his hand, there was a sudden ’puff’ sound, following which the fellow moving towards the window immediately fell to the ground.
Looking over that way, they instantly saw that the fellow had a hole in the center of his brow, bleeding profusely.
Clearly, this person has completely dropped dead, causing everyone’s heart to involuntarily skip a beat, and when they looked at Lin Yi again, they discovered that a faint smoke was rising from his palm.
In a moment, everyone was again overwhelmed with shock, their minds pondering on thoughts: Who is this man?
What is his identity?
Why does he wield such terrifying powers?
Just with a flick and a gesture, he took out one of ours?
Such ability is indeed too powerful. Moreover, our man was at least twenty steps away; even with a crossbow arrow, it’d be difficult to make a perfect kill from such a distance.
Furthermore, just a muffled ’puff’ was heard, without seeing Lin Yi having any significant movement.
How did he achieve it?
Was it a crossbow arrow or perhaps an underhanded weapon?
Yet there was no sight of him drawing the string?
The story continues...
