Unparalleled Double Harmony

Chapter 538 Involvement
Despite the residents of Tirgu Seques' repeated attempts to keep the circus, it resolutely left the town after performing for three consecutive days.

After all, the rangers still have real things to do. No matter how successful their "side job" is, they still haven't forgotten their true identity and mission.

They still...had to make the journey to Transylvania.

In this way, the caravan re-entered the wilderness and traveled for several more days.

During this period, their captives basically confessed everything they could, so when they arrived at the next town, the Popescu brothers, who were unable to provide any useful information, were directly handed over to the local authorities by the circus. How these two guys were subsequently tried had nothing to do with the rangers.

But Dumitru and Dan, who are related to the "Broken Wall Contract", must not be released...

After that, the circus performed again in a new town, but this time they did not stay long. They left in a hurry the next day and left the town.

Because this day is the day when the contract of "Dumitru" expires.

By the way, just as Dan guessed, “Dumitru” was indeed a fake name, because this guy had planned from the beginning to “rob” Dan after the deed was done, so he was on guard against it from the moment he announced the name.

Of course, now it seems that these are just his cleverness and are not important, so for the sake of convenience, we will continue to call him Dumitru.

That night, the moonlight was hazy and the fog was rippling.

On the wasteland, Dumitru, wearing a full set of thick armor, was sitting cross-legged in the middle of an open space, holding a torch in one hand and an axe in the other.

Around this open space, the rangers had already built more than a dozen simple shelters, and were equipped with weapons and equipment that could cope with various situations, such as blades smeared with garlic, arrowheads mixed with silver, pig bladders filled with holy water, etc., ready for battle.

Some people might wonder, how could Dumitru be so cooperative? Why was he willing to sit there alone as bait? And the rangers were so confident that they gave him all kinds of equipment to equip him?

But in fact, if you think about it, you will understand that Dumitru has no choice at all... It is impossible for him to complete the contract now. Only by fully cooperating with the rangers' actions can he have a chance of survival.

After a long wait, midnight arrived as expected, and the vision came with it.

Accompanied by a strange rustling sound like nails scratching glass, a huge crack suddenly appeared in the empty space.

The light that flowed out from the gap was like a stream of scarlet saliva. It quickly spread to the ground and began to spread...

In a blink of an eye, the light and shadow here became as weird as a darkroom for developing film.

Then, the fog that was already pervading the surroundings suddenly seemed to become thicker, so thick that it looked like pieces of white mycelium, making people's skin and eyes feel an uncomfortable "touch".

"Hu... Hu..." Although he had done a lot of psychological preparation beforehand, when facing this unknown force, Dumitru was still so frightened that he was shaking all over. He could only take deep breaths and repeatedly tell himself in his heart that the rangers would protect him... Only then could he barely maintain his sanity.

At this moment, the rangers who were ambushing behind the bunkers all felt that what they were about to face was different from any evil force they had encountered in the past.

"It's quite a big fuss." A few seconds later, a tall figure wrapped tightly in a windbreaker and a top hat poked out from the gap and muttered this in a lazy tone.

As soon as this "person" appeared, Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai in the crowd immediately realized something was wrong, because they were sure that... the clothes and hat on the other person were not suitable for this era.

But before they could figure out what was going on, the man in the windbreaker looked at them through the cover and said, "You should know that you, like me, do not belong here." He paused, "I also had good intentions and negotiated such a contract as a middleman, hoping that you would go back earlier..." He shrugged and spread his hands, "Unfortunately, things did not go as planned. I didn't expect that a villain would take the contract before the person I thought would receive it, so I am very embarrassed now."

As he spoke, he looked at Dumitru, the "scoundrel" he mentioned.

"Perhaps you will never realize that if you had arrived at the broken wall a few minutes later that night, your future life would have been very different." The Windbreaker turned to Dumitru and said, "But now that things have come to this... Haha, I can only think that there is a force that I cannot disobey that is reminding me... I shouldn't have tried to interfere, so let's do business from now on."

After saying that, he took two steps closer to Dumitru.

Everyone could see that he was going to capture someone, so the rangers around him took action and rushed out.

Among them, the one who rushed the most fiercely was undoubtedly Balder.

Everyone knows that he really wants to sacrifice gloriously in this kind of demon-hunting mission to atone for his sins, so now that he has the chance, he will definitely be the first to rush forward and risk his life.

But the man in windbreaker just sneered at the burly man who was rushing towards him wielding a war hammer.

The next second, he stretched out a finger, deflected the hammer that Balder was throwing at him, and knocked Balder to the ground. At the same time, his other hand had already grabbed Dumitru's arm...

Dumitru, who had been frightened by the opponent's pressure and stood still, had not even had time to feel the pain of dislocation in his arm before his body flew out like a sledgehammer.

According to the Windbreaker Man's judgment, this move would throw Dumitru very accurately into the gap where he appeared, and then he would retreat.

However, even the man in the windbreaker did not expect that just as Dumitru was about to fly into the gap, there was a long jumper in the crowd... Oh no... a man with amazing lightness skills, who jumped up and did an "air interception".

As for Huang Donglai... He originally thought that jumping up to stop a person who was thrown away was not a big deal, but he didn't expect that he felt something was wrong the moment he was subjected to the force, but it was already too late.

Just like that, after shouting "Fuck!" in a surprised tone in mid-air, Huang Donglai himself was knocked into the gap by Dumitru...

"Tsk..."

Now, even the man in the windbreaker was shocked. It was obvious that what Huang Donglai had done was completely beyond his expectations, and the consequences were quite troublesome.

However, the Man in Windbreaker knew that if he hesitated any longer, something might happen. So after a slight hesitation, he retreated towards the gap at high speed as planned. Before he entered, the gap had already closed.

"what--"

However, accidents happened one after another. Just when the man in windbreaker was about to escape into the gap, Balde suddenly rose from the ground again with a desperate momentum, chased after him with a roar, and grabbed the man in windbreaker's waist.

So, before the gap closed, Balder also disappeared into it...
