Dawn of the Grey Tower

As soon as he said this, Jian Qi threw the cold iron amulet to the opponent's chest with his backhand. Although the Sword Seeker did not know who the Silent One was and what he had done, this did not prevent him from understanding that this person was the reason why the killer and the female mage would be here, in other words, he was their master messenger behind the scenes. .

And this means that leaking information about the silent will be a complete betrayal.

Generally speaking, people hate internal traitors more than external enemies. Even though they are righteous, traitors are traitors. People always expect a constant relationship, especially a positive one, which destroys the relationship. And change always comes with a certain resistance.

This resistance is not necessarily manifested in bad things, or in other words, it is not necessarily manifested in bad things in our rational perception.

For example, when a friend around us falls in love or is about to get married, most people will be happy for him or her, but if we are friends who have been very close to this person, they will inevitably feel indifferent to the blessings. The loss.

Because the occurrence of change means the end of a period of time, and this end is irreversible, just like a childhood that can’t be returned, or a youth that will never come again, it can only be left to become a distant hometown, or Clear or vaguely preserved in memory.

This is a benign change, and when even more unacceptable betrayals occur, it often means fierce revenge.

Moreover, the killer himself cannot betray his employer, because then no one will hire a killer again. If a killer tries to negotiate a price with the target to get the other party to pay for the ransom, or even sell the employer under the lure of a large amount of money, he will suffer. The chase of all colleagues.

This is also very normal. As long as it can exist for a long time, there will be rules to settle down in a business, and trampling on these rules indiscriminately means serious damage to the entire industry.

Therefore, if a killer feels heartfelt resistance to his task, he can do two things. One is suicide. In this way, the end of the employment relationship is indicated. As for whether the commission is refunded after the suicide, it depends on the organization or faction of the killer. The other was what the killer was doing, and he took the initiative to leak the secret.

This is different from leaking secrets after being tortured or threatened. The killer takes the initiative to reveal the secret as soon as he is captured, which means he has been deceived, deceived by his employer. Only when he believes that the employer violated the content of this mission in the first place, a regular killer will make this decision.

The problem is that the professional ethics of killers requires that even if they have the heart to betray their employers, they must act in accordance with the requirements of the task and cannot violate them. If you die in the process, you can't blame anyone.

The assassin's luck was pretty good, he was caught, and he survived, and he was given a chance to speak. However, the target of his service is not ordinary nobles or rich people. The name Silent is related to the mage in any way he thinks.

"what!"

Sure enough, the reddish cold iron exuded high temperature, burning off the clothes on the assassin's chest, clinging to his skin and flesh, and emitting repeatedly blue smoke.

I don’t know, I’m afraid it’s something similar to torture that burns a person with a soldering iron, but the pain he experienced at this time will eventually pass, but without this piece of cold iron, what he would experience would not be as simple as pain.

The visible shadows protruded from the killer's clothes, trying to strangle his throat, but they changed their goals under the attraction of the cold iron, and they were all sucked into the amulet and turned into heat.

That is exactly the way the wizard hides in the killer. Once it detects the opponent's betrayal, it will be activated. As for the specific trigger mechanism, the non-spell caster, Jian Qi, can not immediately figure it out. In short, cold iron is effective for it, that's enough.

"Zizi"

The brilliance of the killer's pain on the amulet gradually disappeared and then subsided. Jian Qi stretched out his hand to catch the fallen amulet, did not grab the body that was still warm, but instead wore the lace on it.

I don't know what is magical about this amulet. Even if the movement just now is normal even if it is embedded in the flesh, but once it loses its temperature, the amulet separates from the flesh immediately without any human tissues.

Jian Qi did not dare to put the amulet aside, nor did he dared to wear it directly on his neck. He simply tucked the strap a few times, and temporarily tied it to his wrist as a bracelet, so that the amulet would not have any direct contact with his skin. get in touch with.

"How is it? Can you still speak?"

In fact, the sword seeker didn't worry too much. He knew that no matter how much secrets and information the killer confided, he would not be able to turn it into action immediately.

After all, he was able to defeat that female mage with a moment's luck, because the opponent was just a magical learner, and did not have the experience of fighting with spells and the consciousness of being a warrior. He was replaced by another mage of the same strength. It's impossible to say that the body's head is different long ago.

In this way, he may be able to attack a specific spellcaster as an auspicious soldier or an assassin, but he will definitely not be able to move in a city full of spellcasters, which is too strange for him.

"Reluctantly. The amulet just now helped me counteract the magic, right? It's amazing, obviously I have never drunk or eaten what he provided, when did I get caught?" The killer said in a weak tone. Said.

"At any time, she is right. Compared with these warlocks, we are indeed ordinary people. The mystery of this spell is beyond the reach of common sense." Jian Qi smiled and said.

"Oh, that's right. I just worked for that guy, but you came here with a mage. Of course you know better than me how weird they are. Aren't you afraid of them? These mages, they are not at all. Humans, at least not us. I didn't believe them before, but now I believe them, they are the heirs of demons in the world, and desecrators of fornicating demons."

The sword seeker shook his head lightly when he heard the words.

"When I was a child, I saw people making wheels. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com made wood from straight to bend. There are also those who can put leaves on their mouths as a flute. I think they are incredible. So I am. I think the same is true for magical things. If you have never seen a crossbow before, you can't help but wonder when you first saw it, but after you understand the principle, you will accept it. If they are the sons of demons, we might not be able to separate them."

The killer obviously didn't agree with Jian Qi's statement, of course, it was also possible that he didn't understand what Jian Qi was saying. He looked at the female mage over the table with disgust and contempt in his eyes.

"No matter how you look at these mages, they don't treat us as human beings. The woman over there is different from me. If you don't want to cause trouble, it's best to kill her now."

Jian Qi raised his eyebrows and turned to look at the female mage. He actually pulled out the previous short knife from the table, and when he turned over, he gently picked the tip of the knife against the hem of the hood.

"Well, I think I can ask her her own opinion. Are you right? This girl who pretends to be dizzy."
