Lord of the Star Ocean
Chapter 91: Assassination in a Dark Alley (Part 1)
Walking out of the gate of Wan'an Martial Arts, Nie Feng walked quickly along the long street to the south.
The Martial Arts Hall is located in the east area of the city, and Nie Feng's new home is in the south of the city. The distance between the two is quite far. In the past, he used to take the common rental carriage on the street to commute. It only cost two copper coins.
But ever since he acquired the Swift Wolf Step movement technique, Nie Feng gave up the convenience and comfort of the carriage, and instead walked home, practicing this movement technique at the same time on the way back.
Swift wolf step is a high-level fighting technique, with flexible body and fast footwork. Whether it is used to dodge or attack, it has a very good auxiliary combat effect. The speed of running and fleeing is only faster than that of a carriage.
Moreover, Nie Feng has also mastered a shortcut to go home, so he can not only take care of his cultivation, but also save more than half of the time by using the swift wolf step.
After leaving the long street in front of the martial arts hall, Nie Feng turned right into the spacious and straight main street, walked about a hundred steps and then turned back into a dark alleyway.
This dark alley runs across three blocks, is three or four miles long, and is connected with four or five alleys, so it extends in all directions, and people who are not familiar with the environment can easily lose their way when entering.
The ground of the alley is paved with rough stone slabs, and because it has been in disrepair for a long time, it looks potholed. It can almost accommodate two people walking side by side. There are high walls on both sides, and dense tree crowns can be seen from time to time.
Due to the lack of street lights and the shade of the trees, the alley was very dark. Only certain sections of the road were illuminated by moonlight, allowing people to barely see the road ahead.
Ordinary people would probably not dare to walk alone in such an alley at night. Although the security in the east and south areas of Nanyuan City has always been good, it is far from the point where they do not close their doors at night and do not pick up their belongings.
Nie Feng is a brave man with high skills, as a star warrior, if he dare not walk even at night, then he might as well hide at home and drink milk, so as not to be ashamed when he comes out.
Moreover, he walked this road back and forth for more than ten times, and did not encounter any accidents, so he was very relieved.
Entering the dark alley, Nie Feng's body speed suddenly accelerated, and his whole body shot forward like an arrow from the string, his steps were light and fast, and when he landed almost silently, he ran like a night wolf!
In less than half a moment, Nie Feng passed through most of the alleyway, and the brightly lit South Street at the end of the road was already in sight, so he couldn't help slowing down.
There is no problem running around in the alley, but you can't be so unscrupulous when you go out of the alley on the street, otherwise the patrolling city guard soldiers will interfere, and there is absolutely no need to cause such trouble.
In front of it was another intersection where two alleys intersected. A tattered lantern was hung on the wall. The dim light shone from under the lampshade full of gaps, barely illuminating a small area around it.
A homeless beggar was wrapped in sackcloth and curled up under the wind lamp. There were rattan canes, old bags and other odds and ends beside him, and there was a dirty porcelain bowl in front of him.
Probably noticing Nie Feng's appearance, the beggar stretched out his thin hand to pick up the porcelain bowl, and begged in a hoarse voice, "Master, please give me some money."
Nanyuan City is an immigrant city. There are no native aborigines in the city. All the residents have migrated from other planets, and civilians account for the majority.
Due to various reasons, many people became poor or beggars, but most of them lived in the north and west of the city to make a living, and only a small number of beggars fled to the rich east and south of the city.
But they never dared to beg on the street, because the patrol team would arrest them and throw them into the mines outside the city as coolies. It would be worse than death.
Therefore, these beggars usually only dare to wander around in the dark alleys, stealthily pick up the garbage discarded by other people's houses, or beg from people who occasionally pass by the alleys.
Nie Feng was no stranger to it, and sometimes he would give a few copper coins to poor people when he saw them.
The beggar looked very old, and his skinny appearance made people feel pitiful. Nie Feng couldn't help but stop, took out a silver coin from his pocket, and threw it into the other's porcelain bowl.
Ding~
The shiny silver coins fell to the bottom of the porcelain bowl, making a crisp and pleasant impact.
The old beggar was overjoyed immediately, he held the porcelain bowl with both hands, turned over and knelt on the ground: "Thank you, young master..."
As he said that, he bent down as if preparing to kowtow to Nie Feng.
But at this moment, a sudden change occurred!
laugh! laugh! laugh!
Three short black arrows shot out from the tattered linen cloth on the old beggar's back, and the arrows pointed at Nie Feng's chest and abdomen!
The accident happened so suddenly, and the distance between the two sides was so close, if it were someone else, they might be hit on the spot before they could react, and they would be seriously injured on the spot if they didn't die.
However, Nie Feng seemed to have expected it a long time ago. The moment the old beggar launched a surprise attack, he suddenly took a big step back, narrowly dodging the three deadly arrows, and remained unscathed!
snatch! snatch! snatch!
The three arrows hit the wall in front of them. The arrows penetrated deeply into the hard stone bricks.
Although the combat power of star warriors is ten times or hundreds of times that of ordinary warriors, if low-level star warriors are not protected by armor and armor, their bodies are still quite fragile, and they cannot withstand the powerful chopping and shooting of weapons and bows.
Nie Feng has just been promoted to a high-level black iron warrior, if he is shot by these three arrows, it will definitely be a disaster!
But he avoided it.
The assassin disguised as a beggar couldn't help being taken aback. He sprang up like a civet cat, with a gleaming dagger in his hand, and stabbed Nie Feng's heart like lightning!
court death!
Nie Feng, who had just dodged a bit, showed a fierce look in his eyes, and without thinking about it, he punched the assassin!
The opponent didn't have the slightest fluctuation of star energy, he was undoubtedly just an ordinary warrior, after the sneak attack failed, he dared to assassinate him head-on, it was simply a contempt and insult to him.
This punch condensed 70% of Nie Feng's star power, the fist pierced the air and surged, a fierce tiger's power pierced through the fist, and took the lead in enveloping the assassin!
The assassin's clenched dagger could no longer move forward half an inch. The True Form Tiger Fist that Nie Feng had practiced had reached the level of punching intent, and relying on the power of the fist alone was enough to suppress an ordinary warrior like him.
But this assassin is also quite good, at the moment when Nie Feng's tiger fist approached him, he managed to get rid of the suppression of the punch, turned around and retreated a few steps flexibly, widened the distance between Nie Feng and avoided the catastrophe of killing himself.
"good!"
Nie Feng punched nothing, and couldn't help but praise, but the murderous look in his eyes continued unabated!
