Lord: I have a skill talent tree

The shadow that fell from the sky was, of course, Ethan.

Just now, when Ethan deliberately exposed his flaws and lured his opponent to assassinate him but failed, he realized that the first plan had failed.

So he immediately turned to the second plan and looked for favorable terrain.

After observing all the way, he finally found a good place.

A dead end that was wide enough for him to swing his sword freely, 20 to 30 meters deep, and with three high walls.

Not only was the terrain here suitable, but there was no one around, which was a good place to kill and rob.

So he quickly turned into the alley, and with the help of precise control of the sword, he swung the sword upward with force and inserted it horizontally on the wall more than four meters high.

Then he jumped hard, grabbed the hilt of the sword, turned over and squatted on the sword body, and waited quietly for the prey to come under the cover of darkness.

And the reason why Ethan dared to use this trick to hide in the dark and was sure to avoid the opponent's perception was thanks to the instructor of the college.

Although the swordsmanship taught at Allen Academy is limited to swordsmanship and does not involve extraordinary powers, this does not mean that the instructor who teaches swordsmanship has no extraordinary powers.

In fact, every instructor in the academy has awakened the Force and is a truly extraordinary strong man.

They all have their own strengths, and Ethan's swordsmanship instructor is very good at controlling the rhythm.

Since Ethan started learning swordsmanship, the academy's swordsmanship instructor told him that no matter what martial arts he practiced, the first thing to learn was not various moves, but to master the rhythm of the body.

And to control your body, you must first learn to breathe.

Only by deeply understanding breathing, mastering breathing, flexibly adjusting breathing, and finally completely controlling breathing can you lay a good foundation for martial arts.

At that time, many classmates did not care, thinking that who doesn't know how to breathe, why should you learn it?

But Ethan felt that what the instructor said made sense, and he has been studying very seriously, and now he has achieved some success.

Not only was his breathing always stable during the fight, but his hidden qi skills were also outstanding, and he could even control the beating of his heart through breathing.

He also learned to keep the body's minimum required frequency of beating, entering a state similar to suspended animation, which the instructors called "turtle breathing".

In the state of turtle breathing, even many instructors could not sense his existence.

He believed that no matter how powerful this killer was, he should not be better than his instructor!

Because of this, he had absolute confidence that he could avoid the other party's perception.

Sure enough, the killer was afraid of losing the target, so he followed closely and didn't notice Ethan above his head at all.

Seeing that the opponent had entered the sword slash range, Ethan immediately turned over and fell down, and at the same time, he pulled out the champion blade with the force of turning over, and did a turning slash.

Although this sword has many movements, it is actually a matter of a moment, and it is done in one go and extremely fast. If you don't prepare in advance, you will definitely not be able to avoid it.

If the slash is real, it will definitely cut the opponent in half with one sword.

When the sword fell, Eric had already noticed something wrong, and he reacted at that time and rolled sideways to avoid it.

However, because the sword was too fast and he reacted a little late, he did not dodge it completely, and the tip of the sword cut a wound of more than ten centimeters on his back.

Eric suddenly felt a burning pain on his back.

Fortunately, he did not completely lose his resistance. Suddenly, a poker card appeared in his hand and he threw it at Ethan in an instant.

At this time, Ethan was surprised that the other party had avoided the fatal blow. Suddenly, he felt a hidden weapon flying in a strange arc in the darkness. He knew it was a poker card without guessing.

There was no time to think about it. With his unparalleled perception, he raised his sword to block the flying poker card.

The long sword and the poker card collided, and a great force came from the sword, which made Ethan's arm numb.

Ethan was shocked: This is the power of the Force! A poker card can have such a terrifying force.

Thinking of it, Ethan did not stop his hand. After successfully blocking, he endured the pain in his hand and launched a counterattack, slashing at the opponent.

Because the opponent moved back a distance when playing the poker, beyond the melee range, the counter-slash automatically turned into a burst of sword energy.

In the darkness, the air suddenly fluctuated.

With a "chi", Eric's palm, which was holding the poker, suddenly slipped to the ground without any warning.

"Ah..." A piercing pain rushed to Eric's forehead instantly.

At that time, he almost fainted from the pain, but fortunately, relying on instinct, he turned out another poker with his other hand and played it again.

Ethan couldn't give him another chance to play the card, so he stepped forward and nailed his palm to the ground with a sword.

Then he kicked him in the head again, making him dizzy.

Taking advantage of the moment when the opponent lost his resistance, Ethan made three consecutive swords, two swords and one sword, accurately cutting the opponent's tendons in his hands and feet.

Eric screamed again, and then paralyzed on the ground, motionless.

Seeing the other party limp on the ground, as if he had fainted, Ethan exhaled heavily.

He rubbed his numb arm, took out a handkerchief, and slowly wiped the blood stains on the sword.

Ethan stared at the killer on the ground with cold eyes, not ready to kill him, because when he took action just now, he suddenly had an idea.

"This man can't die, otherwise someone else will come. Of course, he can't disappear."

Ethan needs a killer who is alive and can communicate with the organization.

He needs the killer to tell the organization that the mission is still in progress, but for some reason, there is no opportunity for the time being. This is the only way Ethan can think of to avoid subsequent troubles.

Therefore, he only cut the tendons of the opponent's hands and feet, making it impossible for the opponent to resist.

However, the problem came again immediately.

How can I make this killer cooperate with me?

If this problem can be solved slowly.

But there is a problem that needs to be solved immediately. Where should this killer hide so that he will not be noticed?

"The hotel is definitely not okay. There are people coming and going there, and it is not suitable for torture." Ethan was the first to reject his residence.

"Angelina's place?"

"Okay! But not now. With the privacy of the nobles, it is really not commendable.

If it weren't for the long tongue, how could Angelina messing around in her own home spread all over the city?

If I take people there now, Rand will know that he has caught a killer tomorrow."

"Go to my good friend Leon's place?"

"That's fine! There is no problem with keeping secrets, but it's too far, and I can't leave the city now!"

"Oh! Where can I find a place that is close, hidden, and trustworthy?"

Just when Ethan was worried, a woman holding an oil lamp passed by the alley.

When Ethan saw this woman, wasn't she the socialite he met in the bar before? Her name seemed to be Lili.

He was overjoyed: "Got it!"

Lili was carrying an oil lamp and going home. When she passed a small alley, a person suddenly jumped out of the dark alley, almost scaring her to death.

Fortunately, after seeing the other person's face clearly, it was someone she knew, so she breathed a sigh of relief.

Lili patted her towering chest and said in shock: "I remember your name is Ethan! Why are you hiding in the alley to scare people? I was almost scared to death by you."

Ethan was a little embarrassed and smiled kindly: "I'm sorry, I was so happy to see you that I came out a little hurriedly. Excuse me, is your home nearby?"

When Lili heard Ethan ask where her home was, her eyes suddenly became ambiguous, and she took Ethan's arm and pointed to the front at the same time.

"Here! Turn left ahead, it's my house! But, stay overnight at my house..." At this point, Lili hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "It costs 50 silver coins to stay overnight!"

"Uh! So cheap?" Ethan blurted out.

After hearing this, Lili patted Ethan's chest, covered her mouth and laughed, "You are such a bad person, you actually said that others are cheap. If you are willing to give more, I don't mind!"

Ethan smiled awkwardly: "I'll give you a gold coin. But I have a condition, I want to bring a friend!"

Lili was stunned for a while, and it took a long time for her to react. After hesitating for a long time, she said: "Okay! But you can only take turns one by one. I can't stand it at the same time!"

"..."

Ethan was speechless for a moment. Although he knew that the other party had misunderstood, he didn't blame the other party for misunderstanding. It was his own unclear words.

But as long as the other party agrees, then the next step will be easy.

"Please follow me first, my friend is still lying in the alley."
