At the beginning, unlimited skill tree!

The old man of the mountain not only took action personally, but also used the power of the Noble Phantasm like a knife to kill a chicken.

Just when the nobles secretly were as anxious as ants on a hot pot, and felt that the Duchess's choice this time was a bit unreliable... (They should not have listened to the magician's words in the first place, it looked like a Like a liar. After all, this young Duke is still too young and not as experienced as us. Let me tell you, there is no assassination team that dares to accept this task under the threat of the Theocracy.

Not to mention the "Old Man of the Mountains", a legend that I have never heard of. )

Either worried, confident, scared, nervous, or calm...

The people, nobles, and soldiers, at that moment, countless eyes focused on the fourth generation!

Sudden--

Like the image of broken glass.

"Crooked?! That... that's... His Majesty the King's neck -! It..."

Dang~! Dang~! Dang~!

Some strange scenes appeared in front of everyone.

The fourth generation still had a smile on his face.

But his head seemed to be displaced, moving away.

From a distance, it looks like an elongated crooked neck.

And that weird head was still on his neck, staying there for such a short time.

Only then did everyone notice the incredible scene!

Only at this moment did the king appear, and everyone's eyes subconsciously focused on him...

Especially when it comes to the face, they will find such an incredible scene that makes them open their mouths in shock.

The bells are still ringing.

White feathers suddenly fell from the sky.

Everyone did not realize that that was not the sound coming from the bell tower.

The evening bell on the clock tower had just struck and had stopped long ago.

At this time, the bells were ringing continuously as if connected, as if foreshadowing some amazing great achievement.

The magnificence called death!

Bang! !

finally--

The crooked neck's head suddenly fell off the fourth generation's neck after not being able to protect it for long.

"--Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhahahaha happening." The city residents screamed in shock.

‘Dead! ’

‘His Majesty the King was suddenly beheaded and killed in full view of everyone! ’

Everyone didn't react until the end.

The loud voice suddenly sounded from the crowd and kept rising.

For a time, the people crowded in the street were in a panic.

Even the escorts and Crusaders responsible for maintaining the escort were shocked...

For a moment, they forgot their responsibilities, and they all stood there, feeling at a loss and a little scared, with a chill on their backs.

at this time……

In the crowd, Jenny covered her mouth with a small hand in surprise, looking at the body of the king who had lost his head.

Although a little panicked and scared, unexpectedly...

She calmed down quickly, and even she herself didn't understand why she could calm down so quickly.

but--

The king seemed to be dead.

The scene in front of me was frightening and uncomfortable.

But since the king is dead, the decree that was said to convert the people of the country to the moon god should have been cancelled, and will not be promulgated again! ?

It’s messy——

The Campo de' Fiori was in complete chaos.

The soldiers who were responsible for guarding the king were so nervous and frightened that they fainted.

He was not frightened out by the assassin's power.

Instead, he thought that the king’s death would inevitably lead to accountability.

So as the personal guard beside the fourth generation, he didn't even see when the assassin made a move.

This is his fault!

...Even if I die tens of thousands of times, it won’t stop! It’s over! All is lost! It’s completely over! !

Chapter 495: The terrifying name of [Old Man of the Mountain]!

A storm that was enough to cause a sensation in the kingdom began to sweep out, centered on the Flower Square.

The guards took a long time to react and let out roars of fear and despair.

The leader of the Crusaders looked angry and immediately ordered his soldiers to look for the murderer.

And at this time——

Jenny was in the crowd, looking at the king's body lying on the ground next to the carriage, and her eyes suddenly widened. She saw an extremely incredible scene.

From the fourth generation's broken neck, there was no blood flowing out, but blood-colored threads that were cut off like a puppet.

Huh~!

A group of soldiers, under the hasty command of a certain bishop, promptly surrounded the king's body and covered it.

and shouted at the soldiers to disperse the surrounding crowd.

But how many people, like Jenny, have seen some kind of terrifying truth? Only the citizens themselves know.

However--

The fourth generation was beheaded in full public view.

How many people were staring closely at the king's figure at that time...

How could he not pay any attention to the strange scene happening to the king?

Until King Hassan left, no one found him.

In terms of the degree of aura shielding, the Hassan are not inferior to any assassins from another world, let alone the Hassan among Hassan, the Lord of the Mountain.

It is an assassin's legend in itself, the strongest assassin who has obtained the title certificate.

Even though the Old Man of the Mountain assassinated King IV in front of everyone, no one could notice his existence.

Until he walked back, the lingering sound of the evening bell seemed to still be heard in the air.

"The bell...that's-" The 'Silver Knight' girl looked at the scene in front of her in shock, and the sound that sounded like the end of the century echoed in her ears.

"The old man of the mountain..."

Is this the most powerful assassination sect of a certain era that once resounded throughout the Middle East? ! !

Shocked! !

Horrifying! ! !

——The nobles obviously also thought of the existence of Hassan.

But they never expected that it would be such an amazing and shocking assassination!

No--

This is simply a forced killing. Can this way of killing a target really be called an assassination?

But no one witnessed the assassin.

That counts as a successful assassination, right?

I am afraid that only King IV, whose head was beheaded, had the slightest possibility of seeing the killer's face at the moment of being beheaded.

At such a close distance, maybe it's really——

However……

The body of the king, the only possible witness, was almost cold at this moment.

The nobles felt frightened and trembled in their hearts, and took a deep breath!

Once again I couldn't help but think: 'Is this the real assassin? ! ’

‘Is this the Old Man of the Mountain, the strongest assassin? ’

"I am the old man of the mountain, Hassan Sabah! The oracle has been issued. This is the judgment issued by our Assassination Order——! Listen to the bell. This heavy head is the destiny!"

At the moment when everyone was shaking violently, they heard the sound.

...I only heard his voice, but no one was seen!

Finally, someone spoke up and claimed that as the evening bell gradually rang and then died away, he seemed to hear a burst of unhurried footsteps and the crisp sound of armor clashing.

It was like some terrifying figure wearing heavy armor was walking past him.

He thought like that...

A picture has been sketched in my mind.

That must be a very majestic figure! That must be a figure full of oppression and majesty.

Under the black robe, there is a ferocious and ferocious skull mask, as well as the warrior armor that looks like a death lord.

Such a clear 'fantasy', on the one hand, there is an intuitive factor, on the other hand, it is inevitable that Homura has done some tricks in the dark.

The reputation of the Assassination Order and the existence of the Lord of the Mountain need to be spread more vividly.

He didn't want people from other worlds to imagine that Hassan and the others looked like something strange.

…

The Fourth was beheaded by assassins in the capital of Atlan. And it was done openly and openly, in a way that no one could see under the gaze of thousands of eyes.

The head fell from the king's neck.

They can be sure——

The king was indeed alive not long ago.

Many people also said that they saw the king stepping out of the carriage and smiling at people.

This also cuts off the possibility that the fourth generation was assassinated long ago and was only discovered in the end.

So--

How did the assassin remove the king's head in full view of everyone?

Martial law was immediately imposed in the capital, and a frantic search began for strangers coming and going, as well as powerful assassins.

The entire royal capital was divided into various factions and fell into a turmoil of power struggle.

Because the nobles showed distrust in Hassan’s existence——

Let them not prepare as early as planned.

This caused them to miss the first opportunity to seize the kingdom's power from the Theocracy.

Although the Duke girl had tried very hard, in the end she could only confront the bishop sent by the church.

Many crusaders sent by the Theocracy were stationed in the royal capital.

And less than half of the kingdom's most elite soldiers were ultimately in the hands of the Duke and the girls.

Not daring to go to war directly with the Theocracy, nor confident of defeating so many elite crusaders and completely controlling the political and military power of the royal capital, the noble factions were at a loss for what to do next.

However--

In Atlanta, in major cities, villages and towns, various frightening legends of assassins gradually began to spread.
