The speed of the Black Shadow is unimaginably fast, and even a veteran assassin like Harden has no time to react in the face of such speed.

Regner's black blade stabbed straight into Harden's heart, but in the final half-second. Harden's fighting instinct saved him, and he forced his body to twist so that the dangerous dagger didn't hurt his heart.

Although Regner's blow didn't kill Harden, it was a good gain to be able to hurt him. He didn't get into a fight, he jumped backwards and retreated to a corner of the room.

"Ahem...... Who is Your Excellency?" Harden held the back of his heart with his left hand, and looked vigilantly at the masked assassin in front of him. He couldn't imagine how this guy managed to sneak into such a heavily guarded fortress, and even if he wanted to sneak so close to him without anyone noticing, it would be very difficult. And this guy looks like he's only level fifteen, what the hell is going on?

Regner confronted Harden in silence, he was here to kill him, so he wasn't going to say anything more to this guy. Snow on the side still let out a pig-killing sound, while cursing Harden in his mouth, and looking at Regner with expectant eyes...... He didn't expect Regner to save him, he just expected this guy who suddenly appeared to take out Harden.

"Teacher, are you sure this trick works?" asked Regner.

"It should work. Garona said uncertainly, "I gave half of my soul power to the Black Blade, and I think it will regain a little bit of its original power." ”

"You don't feel convincing at all......" Regner complained weakly. But he finally raised the black blade in his hand, and he opened his mouth and said softly, "Black Blade • Visual Deprivation!"

The Shadow Fighting Qi appeared like ghosts, and then they quickly converged, condensing into a small black ball on the black blade. Regner had a smug look in his eyes, but he didn't wait for him to laugh like a villain. The black balloon exploded with a muffled sound.

Harden was a wit, and he tensed his body for a moment, waiting for a strange attack that could appear at any moment. But ten seconds passed, and everything was normal in the room except for Snow's roar. That is, nothing happened......

Harden: "......"

Snow: "......"

Regner: "......"

"I haven't divided my strength yet, what are you anxious about......" Garona said lightly.

"......" Regner is speechless in both the real world and the spiritual world.

"I'll just turn around and walk away...... Regna muttered to Garona.

"Okay, okay, it can't be wrong this time. As Garona spoke, several of the people present saw a pale gold smoke emanating from the sword behind Regner, and then vanished when it came into contact with Regner's dagger.

"In this case, I may fall into a brief period of weak slumber, and the rest is up to you. Remember, absorb his soul with the swallowing light, or the old lady won't know how long she will sleep!" Garona's voice became weaker.

"Isn't that Harden? Regner looked confident: "The teacher should rest in peace for a while, and when the apprentice has cleaned up the old thief, he will dedicate the soul of the old thief to the teacher, so that the teacher can recover." ”

"It's over...... Listening to you, I feel that you can't beat him, let's die together......" Garona left a complaint before she fell asleep.

After making sure that Garona was okay, Regnar raised his black blade again.

"Ahhh

"Nima, if you are in pain, just lie there and roll around honestly, complaining about this kind of thing is not what you want to do now, okay?! If you dare to be verbose, I will kill you first!"

"Oh? It's a young man. Harden couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard Regner's voice, this assassin's voice sounded a little childish, and it was estimated that even the Adam's apple had not grown well!

"Don't look down on young people. Regner raised his black blade, and then said word by word, "Black Blade • Visual Deprivation!"

The same shadow fighting energy, the same condensed into a ball, but this time it didn't explode like before, but merged into the black blade. Immediately afterward, a blue-black glow emanated from the weapon, which was simple and smooth in pitch black.

Harden suddenly felt a darkness in front of him, and he rubbed his eyes, only to find that the situation was still the same.

"Is this what that weapon does?" Harden thought to himself, ordinary weapons only have some magic effects that increase lethality or protect themselves when enchanted, but this weapon has the effect of cursing enemies!

Blackblade Curse, which is a magical effect that originally came with Blackblade. Whenever the Black Blade consumes the blood of an enemy, it can gain some kind of connection to his body for a short time. And through this connection, the person wielding the black blade can cast a curse on the enemy during this time.

There are many types of curses, and in the initial stage, there is the deprivation of the five senses of human sight, hearing, touch, taste, and smell. When its strength is fully restored, the Black Blade can inflict high-level curses such as Poison, Bleeding, Burns, Weakness, and Sluggishness on the target.

Of course, the effect of the curse is related to the difference in power between the caster and the recipient. For example, now the fifteenth-level Ragner is cursing the seventeenth-level Harden, and the old guy now just feels that his vision is dim, and he is still far from becoming completely blind. But if Regner curses a person who has no power, I'm afraid that a hurtful curse can directly kill the poor man!

Seeing Harden's panic, Regner knew his curse was working. He moved his muscles for a moment, and then rushed at Harden like an arrow from a string.

Harden barely made out what was going on around him, and then he heard the sound of the wind breaking. The old assassin hurriedly waved his hand, and was able to fend off Regna's attack with his dagger.

"It doesn't seem to be as good as it could be. Regner shook his head, but it was entirely his own subjective assumption. The Black Blade is powerful, but how can such a thing as a battle be decided by a weapon. Weapons, after all, are just a tool used in attacking, and the real battle still depends on people!

Harden took two steps back, his hand on his desk, and spat out another mouthful of blood.

Regner's initial blow didn't hurt his heart, but it did stab his lungs, making it difficult for him to breathe and move smoothly.

"It looks like this fight is going to be easy. Regner flicked the swallowing light and black blade in his hand, then rushed forward again.

"Who the hell are you?!" Harden was furious, even though he knew that this young man was an assassin sent by the Hawke Empire. However, he thought that he already knew about several of the more famous high-ranking assassins in the Hawke Empire, but he had never been able to find a name that matched this young man in his mind. Who the hell is this guy?

Out of habit, he always likes to fight his enemies when he knows the details of his opponents. So he kept asking about Regner's identity, but hated that this guy had only said three words since he appeared. Two of them are cursing themselves, and the other is complaining about Snow.

When did the Hawke Empire have such a guy who has gone off the line and doesn't play cards according to common sense? Could it be the apprentice or son of the Tempest Sword Saint Malorite?!

Ragner attacked without saying a word. But Harden is a veteran assassin, and although he was seriously injured just now, his defense is still clear and powerful. Regner's two weapons, one long and one short, flew alternately, but he never managed to break through Harden's defenses.

"If you only have this strength, it won't be enough to kill me. Harden said coldly.

From the very beginning, his battle has been dominated by defense and delay. He was just going to drag out time, and now, his goal has been achieved.

The curse effect that the Black Blade attached to Harden was almost gone, and on top of that, he was gradually understanding Regner's fighting style. This assassin has excellent physical skills and accurate combat prediction, but it seems that his physical strength is a shortcoming. Other than that, he seems to be a bit silly, maybe this can be used as well.

Harden took advantage of the confrontation with Regner for a brief moment of thought, and then, he pulled out a super healing potion from his lower back. This is what he got when he touched the table with his hand just now, and he always has a habit of keeping a bottle of super healing potion by his side to save his life, and it seems that it really came in handy today.

Harden quickly drank the healing potion before Regner could attack again. After feeling the wound gradually heal, Harden regained his original composure and composure.

"You're off to a great start. Harden looked at Regner and said lightly: "However, you underestimated me, and now, I want you to understand the importance of respecting the elderly!"

"The old guy is finally getting serious!" Regner thought to himself, in fact, he had a chance to attack it just now when he was with the healing potion. But he gave up because Garona had previously asked herself to use Harden for a full-blown trial.

Before, it was a trial of sneak attack, and Garona gave Regner's performance a so-so score of seventy, but now it is a head-on combat experience. Moreover, Garona demanded that Regnar not use the Shadow Instant, and that he could not use the Body of Darkness to raise himself to level seventeen.

Regner looked at Harden, whose breath was rising, and couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva: "Teacher, you really give me a problem...... Aren't you afraid of playing me badly......"
