Rotes took Melti's advice to heart, and after stuning the enemy in front of him, he immediately controlled the opponent who was about to collapse and made him lie on the ground as silently as possible.
Then, looking at the unconscious enemy, Lotus pulled out a dagger, aimed the grip at the man's throat, and slammed it down.
Click!
There was no accident, and the other party's fragile throat bone was directly shattered by him.
"Ahem...... ho!"
Even in a state of fainting, when he was suddenly hit by a fatal blow, the man still subconsciously convulsed and struggled, and even opened his mouth, as if he was about to subconsciously scream.
Lotus, who had been prepared, grabbed a piece of coarse cloth in his other hand, and pressed it directly on his mouth and nose at this moment, blocking all his screams under the coarse cloth, and could only barely leak a dull and vague bass, such a slight sound, even in this quiet late night, would not attract the attention of others at all.
After the man's knee-jerk reaction stopped, Lotus let go of his hand and continued to cover his mouth and nose with the coarse cloth to prevent the blood from spilling from the other's mouth and nose from spreading the smell of blood in the air.
Trained warriors are sensitive to the smell of blood, and if the smell of blood is allowed to spread, other Imperial soldiers may become alert to the abnormality. Even if it is impossible for a normal person's five senses to compare with Merti, and perhaps not be able to perceive this not too strong smell of blood, Lotus still follows Melti's instructions and tries to take some precautions in this regard as much as possible.
When he was done, he found that Merti had come to him, looking at the corpse on the ground, as if to make sure there was something wrong.
When Lotus noticed Melti, she also happened to withdraw her gaze, nodded at Lotus, and gestured: Go on, follow me.
Lotus nodded, silently following behind Melti.
In this way, the two men hid in the darkness and sneaked over one by one to assassinate the Imperial soldiers lurking around the neighborhood.
During this period, Lotus also discovered one more thing that made him have to admire Merti's caution is still very reasonable.
Because they found a group of Imperial soldiers, disguised as ordinary residents, hiding in an abandoned three-story building, secretly monitoring the neighborhood, and there was a wolf dog in the courtyard of this small residential building.
Those enemies hiding in small buildings don't mention it first, according to Rotters's experience, most of the wolf dogs like this have undergone some special training, and they are afraid that they will react in a special way when they smell a specific smell such as blood, so as to remind their owners.
Therefore, Melti was very careful not to let the smell of blood spread when killing enemies, which is undoubtedly very correct. Otherwise, as long as the wolfdog smells some blood wafting out and barks loudly, the Imperial soldiers lurking in the entire block will probably be warned immediately, so that they will know that something is wrong here.
At that time, facing the already alert Imperial soldiers, it will be difficult for Melty and them to complete the assassination in a covert way.
Thankfully, it hasn't gotten to that point.
Lotus and Melti looked at the wolfhound squatting in the yard from a distance, and began to communicate silently with gestures.
Lotus: What to do?
Melti: Kill it.
Then Merti directly took out the hand crossbow that she had been carrying, installed the crossbow arrow silently, and aimed at the wolfdog.
In the face of this animal with a very sensitive nose, even Melti is not confident that he can lurk in the past and kill it silently, if he uses poison, the two sides are too far apart, and now there is no night wind, even if the poisonous smoke is released, it is not possible to ensure that the wolf dog will be poisoned from such a distance.
Therefore, the best option is to snipe it out with a very slightly loud crossbow arrow.
Fortunately, Merti has roughly circled this block, and it is basically determined that there is only this one of the wolf dogs domesticated by these imperial soldiers for early warning, as long as it is sniped, then there is no need to be too scrupulous about the smell of blood or something.
Perhaps, the Imperial soldiers also want to have more wolfdogs for early warning, but unfortunately, this is the outskirts of the city of Frontier City, and there are very few people, and if there are, they are some beggars and vagabonds. Normal poor people's own food and clothing have become a problem, raising a wolf dog here is actually a little unnatural, if you raise more, it is easy to expose flaws, resulting in the suspicion of people with a heart.

There is an enemy lurking at the entrance of the alley opposite, and it is two people, close to each other, the two can observe each other's situation at any time, and to a certain extent, they make up for the visual blind spots of both sides.
This is different from the two enemies she had dealt with before, if she still sneaked through slowly like before, although it was not impossible, but the moment she made a move on one of them, I am afraid that she would not be able to hide it from the other.
No matter how quickly Melti kills the first person, it is difficult to guarantee that the second person will not subconsciously make a noise when he notices her, thus exposing her.
And the distance between the two is not too close, Melti estimated that although her flying knife level can kill the other party, the difficulty is how to kill the other party without causing movement.
Now in the dead of night, the stronghold in the information given by Prince Henry is originally located in the edge of the city, sparsely populated, and it is even more difficult to see people at night, in such a quiet environment, even if it is just the sound of a corpse falling to the ground powerlessly, if it is allowed to spread, there is a high probability that it will be detected by other enemy soldiers lurking in the dark.
This is also the main reason why Melti had to be so careful to control the follow-up actions of the opponent's corpse after killing the enemy before.
Now, she needs to kill both of them at the same time, but she can't guarantee that she can completely cover up the movements of both of them at the same time.
This is no longer a task that can be done alone. But luckily...... Melti didn't really act alone.
She silently retreated into the depths of the alley, following the route she had taken to return to the three Lotus trio.
"I need your help. As soon as she came up, Merti got straight to the point and put forward her idea.
The three of Lotus were still wondering why Melti had come back, but now when they heard Melti's words, they were immediately shocked.
"No problem, what do you want us to do?" said all three of them with some excitement.
They were excited that they would finally be able to come in handy, instead of quietly hiding on the sidelines and watching Melti fight the enemy alone, as they had expected.
"I need you to do me a little favor. Merti beckoned to the three men, motioning for them to follow, and quickly explained her intentions in short words.
"Be careful, wait a minute, try not to make a movement. ”
A group of four people quickly followed Melti to detect the hidden route, and once again went around to the location where she was lurking before.
Merti didn't speak again, but began to command the three of them with gestures that the members of the Knights of the White Rose had been trained to do when they needed to act covertly.
As an outside trialist, although Melti has not actually experienced that kind of training, the xenodata space is also quite kind in this regard, directly instilling in her some of the necessary memories required for her current identity at the beginning.
Therefore, she naturally knew how to use this kind of gesture code language that the members of the White Rose Knights would master.
Based on Melty's gestures, Doron and Buck were left where they were, while Lotus continued to follow Melti, climbing up the walls of the alley with ape-like agility and landing into the courtyard of an abandoned house next to her.
Rotes's skills are also quite good, even when learning from Melti to climb over the wall, his movements seem to be far less flexible than Melti, but he didn't make any noise, which made Melty feel a lot more relieved, and said that the captain was indeed reliable.
The two continued to sneak, and soon made a detour of more than ten meters, along the way, Lotus carefully followed Melti's instructions, and successfully avoided some inconspicuous trinkets and other gadgets along the way.
Don't underestimate this kind of things that can be seen everywhere in normal times, when you need to sneak and hide, if you don't notice these things under your feet, if you step on them carelessly, the dry branches and fragile tiles will be directly broken and broken by you, and it will often make some noises because of this.
As long as it's not too far away, the noise is easy to detect by the enemy, especially in the middle of the night, which is very quiet.
But the night is dark, and ordinary people often don't really notice what is happening under their feet when walking, especially in this kind of deserted yard that is already overgrown with weeds. Some of the tiles have even been hidden by the grass that grows later, and they are not visible on the surface, but if you step on them, they will immediately shatter with a thud and make your enemies notice you.
Lotus followed Melty all the way, and he really admired this little girl immensely, because there were many small traps that he couldn't find at all, and the other party could easily find them, and this insight was simply inhuman in Lotus's opinion.
However, in reality, Lotus did not know that Merti was able to do this without her own credit. Even if Melti's own insight is as inhuman as Lotus thinks, it would be an exaggeration to do something like directly discovering the small pieces of tiles hidden beneath the weeds.
Sealed now, she doesn't have the ability to perceive psychics, and Emerald can't use the power of data to detect, and they don't have a clairvoyant eye, only relying on the naked eye observation within the mortal realm, in the face of this naturally disguised trap, even Melty may also be tricked.
However, Jiang Yan couldn't bear to cheat on her again.
At this moment, Melti's vision is that there is a holographic projection reconnaissance map transmitted by Jiang Yan, so that the surrounding grass and trees and even all the small traps that may cause her trouble are all clear in her eyes.
Following Melti, Lotus walked slowly for half a minute, and after going around in a circle, he finally stopped under a courtyard wall.
Merti pointed to the wall, signaling that the enemy was on the other side, then handed Lotus a small porcelain vase before leaving.
He had already listened to Melti's detailed instructions before, so Lotus also knew what to do at this moment, and he opened the porcelain vase and placed it on the courtyard wall, so that the gas from the evaporated liquid in it could drift into the other side of the wall with the wind.
Allowing the gas from the porcelain vase to continue to evaporate, Lotus estimated the time, and after waiting for half a minute, he climbed the wall with a light movement, and directly climbed over the wall at once, and fell behind the man.
At this moment, one of the enemies on the opposite side noticed Lotus who was coming over the wall, and was about to shout a reminder when the figure of Melty appeared behind him.
At the same time, the enemy in front of Lotus also saw Melty behind his comrade opposite, and he also wanted to start shouting a reminder.
The result was also obvious, and before the two men could shout, Lotus and Melty acted in unison, and with lightning speed, they grabbed their throats with a lightning-fast shot, while the other hand slammed directly into the temples of their heads.
Originally, these two enemies were also well-trained elite soldiers, and Melti was lucky, strong enough, and had mastered very clever luck striking skills, it was really easy for her to stun a mortal. But on Rotes's side, it is still somewhat difficult to knock the enemy unconscious with a direct blow and ensure that he does not make the slightest unusual movement at all.
However, the small porcelain vase that Melti had given to Lotus played a key role at this moment, the gas it exerted was a powerful poisonous gas with paralyzing and vertigo effects, and it was colorless and odorless, and the enemy quickly began to take effect after inhaling it unconsciously, so that his resistance to Rotes's attack at this moment was directly weakened by half.
In the end, the two enemies fell into a fainting without snorting.
