Lord of War

7. Assassination

The next day, at dawn, Sean, Cecilia, Sefanio, and Rena left the small hotel.

Sean has always felt that there must be some secrets in this small hotel, because his intuition as a player tells him that the more ordinary things look to the extreme, the more likely they are extraordinary. It's just that the little old man ignored him completely, which made Sean guess that there must be some special conditions that made him unresponsive. Of course, it is also possible that the old man was relatively withdrawn.

But for a player like Sean, he would rather believe that it was because of the former.

The Tonis Fortress is an integrated structure of the city and the castle. The outer city defense structure faces the direction of the original Darbion Kingdom, but with the destruction of the Darbion Kingdom, this part has now become a decoration and a burden. It is said that Ryan The royal family intends to split and renovate the outer city, preparing to rebuild it into the model of the axis city—that is, to reproduce the current architectural layout of the inner city directly in the outer city area of ​​the original Tony Fortress.

Last night, Sean had already walked around the inner city of Fortress Tonis.

He found that although Tonis Fortress has officially entered the state of military control, in fact, the quality of the legion soldiers in the inner city and the outer city is very different. And through the communication with Broad last night, Sean has generally understood that the current situation of the Seventh Legion is actually equivalent to a small circle of nobles: those noble children who have chosen a backer to gain a firm foothold can enter the inner city Searching for oil and water, and those family children who can't find a backer can only go to the outer city to take on the hard and tiring work.

Brod, after his surname was deprived of by the Sebarox family, he was no different from those nobles in the outer city.

It wasn't until he was favored by the Rhodes family again and became the second in line heir that his situation improved. It's just that after going through many things and the most difficult half a year in his life, the current Brod really doesn't bother to join forces with those noble children who can pretend to be powerful when they find a backer. That's why I ran into Sean outside the fortress yesterday.

This also explains why Brod knows so much about the inner city's patrol lines.

Because of the warrant given to Sean by Brod, they didn't suffer any trouble when they left the inner city. After all, in terms of status alone, Brod is the one with the highest status in the Seventh Legion—as long as the next head of the Rhodes family has not been determined, even if Brod is only mixed with a baron Title, as his heir in line, no one would dare to provoke him.

In this way, it saved Sean a lot of trouble.

And through this, Sean also found that Brod had indeed matured a lot. He not only knows how to add an extra fig leaf for himself in dealing with things, but also knows how to give up some so-called face problems for the sake of interests, and even knows how to deal with things more comprehensively. Sean feels like he's witnessing the birth of a future political schemer.

However, he did not reject this feeling.

Because of Brod's behavior, it also gave Sean some reminders.

In fact, Sean also knew that asking Rina to bring the Black Stone out might cause some unnecessary troubles, but creatures like earth dragons are not as easy to coax as Gulu or cotton candy—whether it is an earth dragon A dragon or a dragon. This kind of creature usually only recognizes one master for life, and when they recognize the master. Then it will always be inseparable from its owner.

So I want to throw the black stone in the void collar.

This is completely impossible.

Xiao En dared to bet that if this guy couldn't see Rina when he got up the next day, then there would definitely be a news about a monster running amok in the Void Territory. Therefore, as a last resort, he can only ask Reina to bring the Black Stone, although this is indeed a bit ostentatious and full of showing off-for players in the game, this kind of behavior is indeed showing off and pretending to be 13, but For the safety of the territory. Sean had to do the same, so they disguised themselves as adventurers along the way.

Logically speaking, even if an adventurer team or mercenary team had an underground dragon knight, those nobles would not take it too seriously. After all, they are also very clear about Di Xinglong's stubbornness. It's just that Sean didn't expect the turmoil and chaos in the current situation in the Kingdom of Ryan, so for those nobles who desire to quickly increase their strength, the appearance of a ground dragon knight at this time is no less exciting than a cat seeing a fish. Excited.

Therefore, it is a matter of course to cause some unnecessary confusion and attract the attention of various forces.

"Someone is following us." Rena suddenly said when it was about half a day's journey away from Tonis Fortress.

Sean's expression moved slightly, but he didn't stop because of this, and the four of them continued to move forward. However, Heishi seemed a little anxious. It began to breathe heavily and showed a very obvious aggressiveness. If it wasn't for Rui Na standing aside and patting Heishi's body, I'm afraid this big guy would start to go berserk. . Of course, following Heishi's restless actions, Marshmallow, who had been sleeping on Heishi's back for a long time, also woke up with some discomfort.

"A few people." Seeing the performance of these two monsters, Sean knew that the one who followed each other was definitely not a good person.

Creatures such as ground dragons have very keen perception, so they can usually detect the direction of prey from a long distance and start hunting. Therefore, whether it is breath, smell or other things, Dixinglong is very sensitive. So there is only one reason why Di Xinglong can become agitated at this moment: Heishi feels a very strong or strong murderous intent.

Only when it feels threatened, the ground dragon will become anxious and show the aggressiveness and aggressiveness of dragon creatures.

"About three to five people." After all, Reina was born as a mercenary, and now her strength is at the top of the gold peak, and she also took the bottle of [Ancient Dragon Bloodline] potion that Andrew gave before, although the bloodline in her body is still weak. The power of power has not yet fully manifested and activated, but the improvement of various attributes and the sharpness of perception are very obvious. In this way, this will indeed help Rui Na use her previous experience and skills to judge the number of enemies. There is no need to find a way to counter-detection.

"Now Brod's status in the Seventh Legion has risen. Even if his actions make other nobles of the Seventh Legion dissatisfied, at least no one will offend him now." Sean frowned, Apparently he didn't understand the situation, "In this case, we left Fortress Tonys with Brod's hand letter, why would anyone dare to follow us? And..."

Speaking of this, Xiao En's gaze also turned to Black Stone. This mutated emperor dragon has become more and more manic, which also means that the other party is gradually approaching them. At this moment, Xiao En understood that the other party's stalkers might not be as simple as just stalking them, maybe they really wanted to solve them. And knowing that there is a ground dragon knight on their side who dared to choose to make a move, this clearly shows that the opponent is confident that they can restrain Rui Na's display of power.

"It seems that those guys should be people who have direct conflicts of interest with Brod." Sean sneered slightly after trying to understand these key points, "The biggest possibility should be the first heir of the Rhodes family. Come, it seems that the Seventh Legion is also intriguing and disputes."

"So how?" Cecilia asked.

"Since the opponents are here, if we don't fight back, we will be too sorry for our luxurious lineup." Sean stopped, and then suddenly threw off the cloak, and at the same time directly activated the lightness technique and the adrenal gland. After stabbing two ace skills, the whole person has already rushed towards the rear.

The enemy may be looking down on Sean and others, so the distance between them and Sean and others has been constantly shrinking, and facing such a close distance, Sean doesn't even need Reina's reminder at all, he knows Where the hell are these guys hiding? Therefore, with the two ace skills fully activated, Sean ran at full speed and rushed in front of his opponent. Seeing the astonishment on the opponent's face, Sean waved a sword.

Facing such a sudden attack, although the somewhat older middle-aged man was shocked, he did not panic. Although he didn't know why Xiao En found him hiding here, but now all thinking is meaningless, so he raised his hand slightly - he already held a short sword in his right hand, the shape of this short sword It is very simple, but its texture is not ordinary, because this middle-aged man actually blocked the dead bone sword edge that Xiao En slashed with this short sword.

A metal sound of "ding" came out suddenly, and with the splash of sparks, the pupils of Sean and the middle-aged man shrank.

Both of them knew that they had really met their opponent this time.

However, before these two men started to confront each other again, another two people rushed towards Sean from the side. The speed of these two people was almost exactly the same, and even the weapons they used were the same. It was obvious that Sean The three people they faced were an assassination team that had cooperated for a long time. Being able to have such exquisite means is enough to prove that these people are by no means simple opponents, at least they are also well-known killers and assassins on the Southern Continent.

But among the two, there was one who was faster than them.

Rina!

A flaming spear shattered into the air, before Rui Na's people arrived, the long spear arrived.

The tip of the gun lightly touched the dagger of an assassin, and a powerful impact burst out suddenly, but it wasn't that Rina retreated, but the killer who had confronted Rina head-on was directly blown out, and the person was in mid-air. He has already vomited several mouthfuls of blood.

But Rena can block one person, but not the second person.

At this moment, the dagger in his hand had already stabbed towards Xiao En's ribs!

From this angle, if he was stabbed, Sean's heart would definitely be pierced!
