The girl ran frantically through the woods, bullets whistling by her from time to time. Right then, she saw a familiar face, motioning to her from behind a rock.
"Hes, this way!"
"Mr. Ade!" Hes's face showed urgency as she blurted out, "Someone's after me—"
She was cut off midway by two individuals who emerged from the brush behind her.
Fang Hong noticed the two individuals were in lightweight attire, their wide-sleeved white shirts slightly yellowed, the leather armor on their robes fastened with straps, dual swords sheathed, broad belts, and long boots, one of them with a dragon-head short gun at the waist.
These were the region's specialty, Dual Swordsmen, both of them of no low level, between that of a second-tier Duel Swordsman and a third-tier Orbery Great Sword Master, looking to be around levels 15 or 16.
