Lord of War
One hundred and seventy-two. Assassination
That night, Selina took the lead in leaving the Elven King's Court. ??????? Hunting ?
Originally, here in the Forest of Knowledge, the dark elves actually had three strongholds because of the division of forces. But after Rotikabas unified the entire forest of deep understanding, he cut down the World Tree of the Vengeance Party very simply, and then gave the tree heart to the Tree of Life originally owned by the Eternal Night Party. Helping it grow into a fifth-level tree of life, it took control of the entire tree of life in one fell swoop.
Because of the forest of deep knowledge, only one tree of life is enough from now on.
It is precisely because of this that Rotikabas called the stronghold centered on this tree of life the Elven King's Court, in order to restore the glory of the ancient elves—but in fact, before that, the blood elves would also Their domain is called the Elven Court. It's just different from the construction layout of Rotikabas, which was changed with the tree of life as the core. The blood elves' elven royal court is a huge fortress castle built with black magic stones.
Moreover, compared to the blood elves' elven royal court, the elven royal court of the Forest of Knowledge is still under construction, and it may take decades before the real construction is completed. So in fact, Rotikabas was going to attack the blood elves, not only to completely wipe out the blood elves, but also to occupy the blood elves' elven royal court and act as the temporary capital of the dark elves.
For this, Sean was noncommittal.
After all, the lifespan of the elves is extremely long. For them, this kind of construction time of several decades is probably equivalent to a few years in the human world.
Of course, it takes such a long construction time. Apart from the fact that there are relatively few elves engaged in this kind of labor activity, the bigger reason is that elves generally don’t like this kind of labor work. It can take about one or two hours a day. Working hours are hard work. Moreover, the elves are a group of pleasure-seeking races, and they definitely need a luxurious stronghold before the elf royal court in the Forest of Knowledge is built.
Therefore, due to various comprehensive reasons, blood elves and dark elves cannot coexist.
After Serena left, Rotikabas, who had been mobilizing and preparing for three days, also took away nearly two-thirds of the Forest of Knowledge's troops.
Different from the group concept of the surface world, the underground world is a pyramid survival society that pays more attention to the law of the naked jungle.
Here, the weak will unconditionally submit to the strong, and the strong will naturally bring powerful protection to the weak. If one day, a strong man is unable to give enough shelter to the weak who submit to him, then these weak will submit to other strong men and completely overthrow the rule of the original strong man—in this respect, the expression is especially,
They are the three groups of demons, nerubians, and dark elves.
After Rotikabas beheaded all the dark elves who were unwilling to submit to him, although this move did make the dark elves in a relatively weak state, what they got in exchange was the entire dark elves Unprecedented high cohesion. As long as Rotikabas survives, the entire dark elf group will never be in turmoil and rebellion. This is the concept formed by the strong system of the underground world for tens of thousands of years.
It was also based on this that Rotikabas dared to take so many dark elves to attack the blood elves' royal court.
If it was changed to the surface world, a king who had just gained dominance by bloody and violent means would definitely not dare to throw half of the country's soldiers to start a new war immediately. Because countless historical facts have proved that new kings who dare to do this rarely end well: if everything goes well in the war, then it is better to say that the war must be hindered, and victory cannot be won in a short time to stabilize the morale of the army. The result can be imagined.
After Rotikabas left, no one would bother Sean.
Although there are still many dark elves staying in the Forest of Knowledge, in fact, apart from a group of guards from the original Reform Party forces left behind by Rotikabas, there is only one legendary powerhouse in charge, and the rest They are all dark elves who have little combat power or are not good at fighting. So naturally no one would disturb Sean's recuperation, which made Sean quite happy and relaxed.
In the blink of an eye, another week passed.
Originally, Sean thought that in two weeks, his injury should be almost healed.
But now, counting the week he was in a coma, three weeks have passed, but Sean found that his injury still hasn't healed. However, compared to the situation a week ago, now Sean is able to turn over to sleep, and even get out of bed for a little exercise.
"The recovery situation seems to be much more difficult than imagined." Sean gently rubbed the scorched marks on his chest and abdomen. Although the pain was slightly reduced, the pain was still very obvious. "But at least it is a real restraint for now." The injury continues to worsen. Just to recover..."
Xiao En frowned slightly, and he suddenly found that it was difficult for him to calculate the exact recovery time.
"It seems that at least another month or so will be needed." Sean sighed helplessly, "It's only a month, probably the most intense battle on Rotikabas's side... If the blood elves If the defensive strength over there is as weak as expected, it is very likely that the victory will be decided in one fell swoop."
Before, the blood elves sent people into the Forest of Knowledge, trying to trouble Sean and Rotikabas, but they brought several super experts over. In that war, if there was no Emrakul, Rotikabas really had no hope of winning. Of course, if Sean was not seriously injured in the end, Emrakul would go on a killing spree and kill all the super strong, legendary strong and elites. If he died, Rotikabas would not have the courage to attack the royal court of the blood elves.
"I don't know what's going on with Emrakul on the surface. It's been a week and he hasn't come back. Could it be that something happened on the surface?"
Sean couldn't help thinking about it.
Sean was very worried about the situation in the surface world, otherwise he wouldn't have insisted on getting Emrakul to report his safety even though he was seriously injured. Of course, in accordance with the international practice of reporting good news but not bad news, Sean did not write down many things in his letter, and he also specifically explained to Emrakul that if there is any trouble on the surface, he must give priority to helping Sisi Leah can only come back after solving it.
So at this moment, Emrakul, a super powerhouse, has been to the surface world for a week, and he hasn't come back yet. Sean naturally thinks more.
Of course, in fact, the current surface world does have a lot of trouble for the Void Empire.
It's just that these troubles are not the troubles of others coming to the Void Empire, but the troubles of the Void Empire looking for others: the war with the Dead Tide; the war with the Duchy of Lumber; The undercurrent between the Sri Lankan Empire and so on.
Emrakul's appearance allowed the Void Empire to completely quell the internal disputes, and this behemoth finally completely burst out the terrifying energy that belongs to the empire level-Genes Kingdom, within a week, passed four Three-thirds of the country has been completely occupied, and the entire kingdom is in the process of falling apart.
And this is why Emrakul didn't return to the Underworld.
It's just that Sean doesn't know about these situations yet.
At this moment, he is still guessing whether Cecilia and the others have encountered any trouble in the surface world. It's just that this kind of guessing has no other benefit except to make Sean feel more heavy and uncomfortable, so after a while, he can only force himself to calm down.
No matter how anxious Sean was, it was meaningless until he captured the Giovanni Clan's Path to the Abyss.
As one of the thirteen blood clans, is the Giovanni clan so easy to break?
Sean, who had calmed down, soon continued to lie back on the bed, closing his eyes and resting his mind.
Soon, someone knocked on the door, and after obtaining Sean's permission, the door was quickly opened, and the smell of food wafted in.
The tree hole is served by a special person arranged by Rotikabas, and three meals a day will be delivered. If Sean needs anything, he can also ring the bell to call the servant over. Therefore, Sean usually infers the time from the time when the servants deliver the food.
This is the third meal delivery today, which means that it is already night time.
With the help of this servant, Sean quickly finished his dinner—although the dishes looked rich, it was obvious that these dark elves couldn't come up with any new tricks, so they came and went all the time. There are a few sets: croissant, steak, fruit and vegetable salad, soup and so on.
Although eating too much of these things is really boring, but in terms of nutritional supplementation and recovery, it is indeed faster.
After the servant left, Sean closed his eyes and rested.
He didn't say that he must sleep, but he had nothing to do. His current physical condition was relatively poor, and he was obviously not suitable for getting out of bed to exercise, so it was far less simple and straightforward than sleeping. Of course, Xiao En didn't really just sleep with his eyes closed, but kept improving his swordsmanship in his mind. After all, there was a deduction by the Black King. As his strength gradually improved, many swordsmanship skills were actually natural. Then you can continue to improve and become more powerful.
"Dad..." The Black King's voice suddenly sounded in Xiao En's mind, interrupting Xiao En's deduction.
"Why..." Sean just wanted to ask, but his consciousness stopped, because he woke up, and his consciousness smelled a strange fragrance in the room.
This fragrance is not pungent, but has a calming effect on the contrary. After just a few breaths, Sean felt that his thinking seemed to slow down a lot. But soon, this feeling of stagnant thinking disappeared from Sean's body. Instead, Sean became vigilant and his body began to tense—he knew that this was the toxin immune function of his body. Otherwise, at this moment, he might have fallen into the drowsiness effect of slow thinking.
This fragrance should be a means similar to sleeping.
Enemies have sneaked into the Elven King's Court!
This was Sean's first reaction.
His eyes opened slightly, and he quickly glanced at the scenery outside the window through the window. Although it is difficult to tell whether it is day or night in the Forest of Knowledge, Sean has lived in the Forest of Knowledge for so long, and he has more or less the teaching skills of Roti Kabas, although he cannot accurately divide the time, But he can still judge the approximate time period.
At this moment, it should be three or four o'clock in the morning, which happens to be the most exhausting time for a person.
Sean remembered that he closed his eyes and started to deduce sword skills after dinner. To him, it seemed like a blink of an eye, but he didn't expect that several hours had passed. If there is no reminder from the Black King, Xiao En is addicted to his sword skills deduction state, coupled with this strange obsessive fragrance, I am afraid that he will really fall here today.
But soon, there was a faint smell of blood in the air.
Under the cover of the strange scent, this bloody smell was almost inaudible, but after all, Sean was an executioner who had killed countless people, so he still let him catch a little bloody smell. Of course, judging from this simple detail, Sean also knows that his "guest" is absolutely extraordinary: because only very small wounds can make the smell of blood almost inaudible.
But if the wound is small enough and deadly enough, it is not something ordinary people can do.
The door was quickly opened.
A black figure quickly flashed in from the door, if it wasn't for Sean's sharp eyes, it would be difficult for him to spot this figure. And what's even more subtle is that the moment the black shadow flashed in, it was able to close the door again without even making any sound.
This silent skill, in the entire underground world, only one group can master it.
Devil.
Specialized in the assassination of a demon descendant.
However, Xiao En's tense body gradually relaxed after seeing this black figure. Because he already knew the strength of the comer, presumably because he was afraid of being spotted by the legendary strong man sitting here, he sent a gold-level strong man with a slightly lower sense of presence—after all, this is now under construction. In the Elven Royal Court, apart from those who have no combat ability, there is only one legendary strong man, and the others are all people in the gold and silver realms.
If it is a legendary powerhouse or a sanctuary powerhouse coming, the breath fluctuation will be more obvious, and it is easy to be spotted by the legendary powerhouse sitting in charge.
And if it is a gold-level strongman, then even if he occasionally exudes a little momentum, it is in line with the current situation of the Elf King's Court: only silver and gold, and they are all responsible for taking turns to guard Xiao En's tree hole. A legendary strong man would not say anything even if he sensed it. Of course, the reason why no lower-level silver masters were sent over must be because the silver masters were too weak.
This demon descendant is also a very cautious person.
After he entered this room, he did not act rashly, but waited in the room with his breath held for a full twenty minutes. Xiao En believes that the other party is not only judging the environment and traps, but also waiting for the effect of the strange fragrance scattered in the room to take effect.
This couldn't help but make Sean lament once again his silver body and his golden body that is about to evolve and transform.
There was no sound of footsteps, but after waiting for more than 20 minutes, the figure finally began to walk slowly towards the place where Sean was sleeping.
His movements are very gentle, moving forward step by step, the whole person is very cautious, and even stops from time to time to continue to observe the surroundings to see if there are any things or traps that he has not noticed before. Judging from the superb skills shown by this person, as long as such a person does not perish, it is only a matter of time before he breaks through to the legendary realm.
However, with a distance of twenty steps, it took the devil-born assassin nearly two minutes to walk in front of Sean.
His right hand shook slightly, and even in this dark room, a dagger that still shone with an extremely deep black light slipped into his palm.
I saw the other party holding the dagger tightly, and then slowly moved it to Sean's heart, and whispered: "This is a greeting from His Excellency Don Giovanni."
The next moment, the right hand suddenly exerted force, and the momentum on his body dissipated slightly, and the short dagger directly stabbed towards Xiao En's heart.
Only at this moment of exerting force did the aura on his body come out, but it was only for a moment. After completing the acceleration of the burst of strength, the aura on his body suddenly withdrew and disappeared completely, really like a flash in the pan Very weird. Such a superb explosive movement like the devil's, if it is not for the legendary strongman who specializes in investigation and even monitors the entire territory all the time, it is extremely difficult to find such a devil's killer.
This may also be the reason why Sean's enemies hired this demon killer.
It's just that the explosive power of this demon-born killer is fast, but Sean's speed is not slow at all—in other words, under the interference of Sean's use of the law of time and space, only this demon-born killer would mistake himself for The speed is very fast.
But in fact, there are only a few legendary peak powerhouses who want to compete with Xiao En in this world.
With the strength of this golden-level powerhouse, even if Xiao En's strength has dropped by half, he is still not a weak person who can be slaughtered by the opponent.
Therefore, at the moment when the assassin's hand burst out, Sean's left hand had suddenly reached out and grabbed the opponent's right wrist-in terms of Sean's strength after several times of soul strengthening, this demon After the right hand of the descendant assassin was clamped by Xiao En, he couldn't move at all.
An unbelievable panic appeared on his face in an instant: "This...you..."
There was a smile on Sean's face, although this smile seemed weak, but Sean's astonishingly bright eyes brought a greater mental shock to the other party: "Don Giovanni?... Heh, I didn't bother him, but he kept coming to trouble me. But unfortunately, if you have the strength of the middle sanctuary and use the power of law to compete with me, it will be very difficult for me To achieve this level, it’s a pity that you only have the strength of the golden level.”
The demon killer's face turned livid, and he kept trying to break free from Xiao En's left hand. But Xiao En's left hand is like an iron hoop. After being trapped, let alone breaking free, he can't even move the position of his right hand, or even let the dagger of his right hand drop an inch down.
After struggling twice to no avail, the demon killer's expression froze, his right hand suddenly turned into a fist, and the sharp fingertips exposed on the nails instantly pierced Sean's throat like a sharp dagger.
But this time, Sean didn't even move, and looked at the demon killer with a contemptuous and mocking face.
"Ding!"
A burst of sparks flew.
The demon killer looked at the broken fingertip of his right hand in horror. The severe pain let him know that his right hand was completely useless. And following the movement of his eyes, he suddenly saw a piece of silver scales appearing in the place he had listed as a vital point, and it was the scales that completely blocked his sure-killing move.
"I've fought against you demons quite a few times. You come and go just a few times. It's not difficult to defend yourself after you get used to it." Sean sneered, and at the same time he broke the name with his left hand. The demon killer's right hand was also twisted off.
In this way, the hands of this demon-born killer were completely crippled by Xiao En in an instant! (To be continued.)
