Chapter 39: Another Assassination
Hao stumbled all the way through these dim lanes, and several times he felt that he might not be able to hold on, but did he really want to fall like this?
"No, sir, I'm a traverser...... The traverser does not explain...... The traverser 5,001 square bought a house in Beijing's second ring road...... Traverser buys 150 bitcoins for a dollar...... "Hao gritted his teeth and gurgled and cheered himself up in a mess.
In his memory, the road came to an end, a turn, and a short alley, and there should have been a fixed guard post for the city guards......
"Be careful!" Just when Hao finally walked to the mouth of the alley, the meteorite fragment on his chest actually let out Dora's exclamation!
Hao subconsciously tilted his head when he heard this, according to his thoughts at that moment, could it be that Honghong chased after him again?
But it was such a head-turning action, but it saved his life.
"Whoosh" The three arrows shot at him almost in no particular order, and the first arrow was shot at Hao's head, and Hao turned his head, which was equivalent to grazing Hao's ears and flying over.
The second arrow was shot at Hao's chest, and when Hao turned his head, he must have moved his body, so the arrow hit Hao's shoulder.
As for the third arrow, of course, it was shot steadily on Hao's thigh.
"It's a pity, it's a pity!" There are three people who came, but the difference is that these three are very well-proportioned, and the leader has a *** in his hand, and the three crossbow arrows just now seem to be from his hand, only to hear him say this, but I don't know if it is a pity for Hao's life is about to end? Or is it a pity that his three arrows are only one arrow.
"You...... Which one of you are you?" Hao was already speechless intermittently, this special male capital is also terrifying, right?
"Dead people don't need to know much!" Before the crossbowman could finish speaking, the other two had already drawn their swords and forced towards Hao.
"Ding!" The first sword slashed diagonally at Hao's neck, and to everyone's surprise, there was a sound of gold and iron intersecting at the junction.
Obviously, the dragon's blood-strengthened body once again protected Hao, and Hao also took advantage of this gap to gather the little strength left in his body, and waved his bloody fist to knock the person to the ground with one punch.
But in this way, the second person will not give Hao any more chances, I saw that all his sword momentum is mainly stabbed, and it is divided by one touch, how can Hao's arm span touch him for half a point?
After a few stabs of "jingling", this person finally realized that the skin in front of him was really thick!
But today he seems to have a lot of wounds on his body, right? What if he was stabbed into the wound?
So at the time of the seventh sword, Hao's chest was pierced, and although Hao couldn't reach the opponent's body, he could barely grasp the sword grid at this time.
Like a drowning man before he died, Hao stretched out his hands full of bloody wounds and grabbed the sword grid tightly!
"That's right, you can't let him rotate or pull the sword at this time, then the wound on your internal organs will be greater, and you can't let him draw the long sword, if you have one more blood hole like this, you will bleed to death in five seconds at most!" Dora was eager to get out of the meteorite space, but in fact, she couldn't get out, and at most she could only convey some theoretical knowledge to Hao through her consciousness.
"Is it so hard to draw your own sword?" the crossbowman scolded, glancing over the side.
"Drink ......" The person who was just about to draw his long sword inadvertently glanced at the crossbowman, and immediately broke out in a cold sweat, "Finger...... Commander, watch your back!"
"Seems a bit immoral for you to bully an injured person like this, right?" Before the crossbowman could turn his head, a pleasant voice suddenly rang in his ears!
"How is it possible? A crossbowman of my strength, let alone a big living person, can sense even a mosquito within three meters of him, so ...... And what kind of terrifying strength should this comer have?" both the crossbowman and the swordsman suddenly felt that their heads were a little unable to turn.
"Warrior, pick up this sword!" Hao's gradually blurred vision saw that the person who came was a woman, only to see her point to another sword that fell to the ground, and said coldly in an unquestionable command tone, "I...... Fiona of House Laurent proposes a duel to you! You can choose to surrender and present your right ear, or you can choose to die and become a meal for crows!"
"Pretend!" The speed of the swordsman was also very fast, when he released the hilt of the sword inserted in Hao's chest, his left foot lightly stepped on the long sword that fell to the ground, and the long sword actually flew up, and then I saw him jump up, and the person rushed forward with the movement of the sword, and the tip of the sword pointed directly at the woman's heart.
It's just that Fiona understood his intentions as early as when he got the sword, she just moved half a body to the left, and the swordsman's imposing sword actually stabbed into the air.
Then she gently pulled her saber out of its scabbard, it felt very slow, but in fact it was so fast that neither the crossbowman nor the swordsman had time to react, only to see a sword light that seemed to cut through the dark night, it was an elegant and precise arc......
The crossbowman couldn't help but gasp as he watched the warm blood spill on the stone pavement. He could have imagined that this swordsman would definitely be defeated, but he would never have guessed that he would be defeated so suddenly and so completely!
Fiona turned around, and the swordsman's sword fell to the ground. He fell to his knees, then collapsed and sat down, his hands clutching his severed throat, unable to stop the blood from gushing out.
She bowed to the dead swordsman, then looked at the archer, raised her eyebrows, and asked softly, "What about you?"
"Whoosh!" The crossbowman's heart was bright, if he opened the distance, he might be able to maneuver with this woman for a while with his ghostly body, but within the range of three meters, he would definitely not be able to stop her sword, after all, it is the same for every crossbowman, and melee combat is not a crossbowman's strength!
Therefore, the crossbowman shot these three arrows very skillfully, the first arrow was shot one meter away from Fiona, the second arrow was two meters, and the third arrow was shot at his side.
It was clear that he didn't want to hit Fiona with these three arrows, but just wanted to block Fiona's path to him.
In fact, the moment the crossbow bolt was fired, the crossbowman had already poured all his strength into his legs and desperately retreated!
"Hey, what's going on over there!" The sound of the fight finally alarmed the city guards, and now from the other side of the alley came the shouts of the city guards, and the sound of metal pieces on the armor constantly crashing.
This should have been a city guard running towards this side, right? Hao thought like this, and the nerves that had been tense finally loosened a little, and then the whole person completely lost consciousness and fell straight backwards......
While Hao was fighting to the death with the assassins, in the largest and most luxurious study in the Castle of Dawn, King Gavin III was destined to have another sleepless night tonight.
There was a strange bald man standing in front of him, saying that it was strange because this bald man not only had a non-mainstream lilac complexion, but also dark red strange characters like tattoos all over his ** upper body, and even on his head!
"This ...... How many years have passed, and you have finally reappeared. "What's even stranger is the attitude of Gavin III, he, the king of Demacia, is actually deferential like a child in front of this bald man?
As he spoke, the king immediately stood up from behind the wide desk, and hurried to the front of the desk.
"Actually, it's not what you think, Shilin is here, I naturally come back here often, but I don't want to disturb you. The bald man said slowly in a low tone.
"Oh, you showed up on a night like this anyway, do you have any orders?" asked King Gavin III respectfully.
"There's nothing to command, it's just that I'm suddenly a little bit of a loser!" the bald man stretched out his right hand and gently put it on the shoulder of Gavin III, just like many years ago, he said in a heavy tone, "Demacia used to be the auspicious land that our people gave to this world, and the Demacians have been advocating justice, glory and responsibility since ancient times, and they are not as aggressive as the Noxians, but over the years, the internal contradictions in Demacia seem to have become more and more acute......"
"It was my stupidity to not do what a king should do. Gavin III actually lowered his head wearing the crown guiltily.
"No, you've done a good job, as I said earlier, it's just that I'm suddenly a little bit of a loser. The bald man sighed softly, as if to say to himself, "Hey...... I just hope that you Demacia can be peaceful......"
"Dear Archmage Rieze, as you wish, I have spent my whole life ...... peace" Gavin III continued to bow his head, his body trembling a little, and just as he was halfway through his words, he suddenly realized that there was no one in front of him.
"Your Majesty......" Zhao Xin's concerned voice came from outside the room, even if his strength was terrifying like Zhao Xin, didn't he notice the abnormality just now? The answer is yes, otherwise he would have rushed in a long time ago!
"Zhao Xin, you come in!" I don't know how long it took, the old king's voice finally came from the study again, and when he saw Zhao Xin, he pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled with relief, only to hear him say slowly, "How many frictions have happened between the demon seekers and those demon dyers in Xiongdu in the past few days?"
"Six for the big ones, eighty-two for the small ones. Zhao Xin replied in a bitter tone.
"Have you counted the casualties?" said Gavin III, tilting his head and closing his eyes, with a long sigh.
"Seven demon seekers died, twenty-three demon stainers died, and ...... There are fifteen civilians!" Zhao Xin said expressionlessly, "As for the injured, it can only be estimated that there are about three hundred people. ”
"What else is there?" said Gavin III, gritting his teeth.
"Also...... Yes, the number of nobles who have returned to Xiongdu has suddenly increased in the past few days, for example, yesterday during the day to the Earl of Jandale, and ...... And Grand Duke Toby who has just disembarked!" Zhao Xin glanced at the guards and guards standing outside, and said in a low voice.
"Smack!" said Gavin III, for he had devoted all his strength to the hand holding the pen, causing the barrel of the pen in his hand to break in response......
