Chapter 172: A Backward Country
Tsukizakura didn't know that the real assassination target had been killed, and he really came to assassinate General Orton, but when Shenxue explained the mission, he asked him to be above board, and he ran away when he saw that the situation was not good.
Now, Tsukizakura felt like she was going to run away.
In addition to the three level 6 cultivators, there are also a large number of soldiers surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside, Moon Sakura is not wearing full-body armor like Atru, and the magic power of the body is limited sooner or later, in the case of continuous consumption of mana, one arrow is enough to destroy Moon Sakura.
Of course, the more important reason is the numbness that comes from Tsukizakura's thighs now.
That arrow was quenched with poison, the usual poison had no effect on Yue Ying, and the poison that could make Yue Ying feel paralyzed was at least a poison that ordinary people would die of if they were exposed to it. Because of the influence of the poison, the originally useless binding array also began to play his role, and Yue Ying's current speed and strength dropped by at least a notch, and in the face of the siege of the three cultivators, Yue Ying became more and more difficult.
If you don't run now, when?
Tsukizakura doesn't want to die here.
After making up her mind, after Yue Ying forced back the cultivator with the axe with a single sword, she immediately gathered her magic power on her legs—although this would increase the effect of the poison, she couldn't care so much about it now.
"He wants to run!"
Yue Ying's movements couldn't hide the battle-hardened Five Heavenly Kings, and one of the elderly cultivators wearing magic robes had yellow light on his hands, and a magic array appeared out of thin air, blocking Yue Ying's way.
"Good job!" An arrow arrived in time, along with the axe warriors who rushed up again, the interception and attack in three directions completely sealed the moon sakura as long as she hesitated for a while, and the moon cherry blossom would not see the sun tomorrow.
At this time, Yue Ying made the most accurate judgment, that is, to directly break through the blockade of the magic array - his anti-magic ability is not a joke, just a magic array, at most, he is seriously injured, which is much better than dying.
With this in mind, Tsukizakura passed through the obviously uneasy magic circle and flew away in a puff of black smoke - it seemed like this.
"Tulaman!, what's the matter with your magic array!" the axe warrior saw that he couldn't catch up, and immediately found trouble with his own people.
Tulaman, one of the Five Heavenly Kings, was indifferent, and said with a smile: "How can my magic array be touched casually......? Let's get the soldiers and hunt it down! We'll just sit in the castle and wait for the good news!"
"That's right, and he was hit by my arrow, although he can still move...... But it definitely won't last long. The archer, who had been harassing him from the side, also came up to talk, he was very confident in the poison he had prepared, "Let's go and see the situation of Atru and Dana first, we are the Five Heavenly Kings, and we are not without any of them." ”
The Axe Warrior was indignant, he actually trusted the strength of his companions, but he had never fought such an unreasonable opponent, so he was too excited for a while.
As the three of them entered the castle laughing and talking, they had no idea what kind of news would greet them.
Wangcheng, the deep snow mansion.
Deep snow, who had just finished all the work, spread out on his desk, his mouth open, and saliva flowing. If this is seen by people who admire the deep snow, they will definitely feel that their dreams will be shattered.
It's a pity that Sheila was the only one present, and she didn't know how many times she had seen such an unseemly appearance of deep snow.
The so-called three views, you can get used to it when you break it.
"Anyway, I've actually quit my job, right?" Sheila already had dark circles under her eyes and looked very tired, "Why did I follow you to this place?"
"Didn't I give you another contract after you resigned? Die, you'll be my person from now on—" Shenxue deliberately said that her tone was very obscene, but she was weak when she spoke, and the degree of obscenity dropped by half.
"Yes—yes—" Sheila flipped through the papers to make sure there were no mistakes, "Actually, they're all using sniper firearms, so why do you want Tsukizakura to come to the door?" wouldn't it be nice to assassinate them secretly...... That Outland was just an ordinary person. ”
Shenxue raised her hand and shook it, "It's because it's an ordinary person that I want to come to the door...... After all, he is the adjutant of General Orton, so he always has to give some face, isn't ......"
"I don't think anybody would want that kind of face. ”
The face given by others asks for money, but the face given by Shenxue is fatal.
"Most people nowadays have a misunderstanding, that is, they only focus on the one at the highest point, and killing General Orton is indeed once and for all, not to mention the difficulty, and it is easy to lose all your money. ”
"But the adjutant is different, they are indeed in high power, but they are obscured by the light of the top, a big Buddha pestle is there, and the minions next to them are always ignored. ”
There is also a premise for Shenxue's words, that is, there is an existence outside the specifications of cultivators in the world of Kallidor, and the value of ordinary people is very low. In fact, this is already very good in modern times, if it is placed in ancient times, no one cares about the life or death of ordinary people, and at the top of the organization, basically only cultivators can hold it, and it is better in modern society, but the class gap is still very obvious.
In addition to the fact that Outland can be an adjutant, in addition to being a family member of General Orton's family, the change of concept also has a lot to do with it.
Of course, it's just because it's an Odyssey, a country that's still very backward.
For example, the empire is already a system where capable people live, and it doesn't matter if you are a cultivator or not—the Prime Minister of the Nine Wolves is an ordinary person, and he is still an extremely human minister.
"What's next?"
"What's next...... Waiting to be announced?" Shenxue let out a sigh, "After all, we all kicked our noses and faces......"
"I hope Tsukizakura and Alice are okay. ”
"Don't worry, Yueying is so strong, it's going to be fine. "Deep Snow didn't know it, and set up a huge flag by himself.
Tsukizakura couldn't see what was in front of him now, he just ran forward mechanically, avoiding everything that made a sound.
On the way to escape, he has encountered several waves of soldiers who have come to search for him, and at first Tsukizakura was able to deal with these soldiers before leaving, but now he can only hide like a mouse, hearing the noise.
The reason for this is because of the damn poison on the arrow.
Yueying's body is indeed very tough, but it is not invincible, and a strong enough poison can still affect him and even kill him.
And coincidentally, the poison of the Five Heavenly Kings happened to be the kind of poison that Yue Sakura could resist, but could not resist completely.
Of course, if the Five Heavenly Kings saw the moon cherry blossoms that were still walking like flying now, they would definitely be frightened and their eyes would fall, and then wonder if the drug-making skills he had been exercising for a long time were a waste of time.
Atru's giant knife had long since been lost, the weapon was too big and heavy to hold even though Tsukizakura's limbs were already unconscious. Difficulty breathing, blurred vision, and a normal person would have stopped a long time ago.
But Tsukizakura can't stop, he has a hunch that there are enemies around, and once he stops, he will be caught.
In fact, Tsukizakura's premonition was very correct, although Tsukizakura tried his best to avoid revealing his whereabouts, but his movement in the jungle was too big, and the traces along the way were obvious, but because he was tracking him were ordinary soldiers, so he never really caught Tsukizakura.
As for the Five Heavenly Kings...... When they returned to the castle, they left it to be a standout to capture Tsukizakura.
General Orton and the Five Heavenly Kings have more important things to do.
That is, to gather an army and attack the royal city.
As soon as Outland died, there was no leader in the faction that followed the prudent policy, and General Orton and the Five Heavenly Kings were actually radicals, especially General Orton, who had long wanted to take the Odyssey throne in his hands, but only endured it because of Outland's admonition.
Now that there were no more people to admonish General Orton, and with the anger of Outland's murder, it was only natural to attack the royal city directly.
Tsukizakura didn't know what General Orton's faction was doing, he just kept running towards the east as Alice said before, and his thinking was very dull now, and he only remembered that the meeting place with Alice was in the east.
So, just keep going east.
Tsukizakura, who had only one thought left in his mind, unknowingly saw a white mist appear in front of him, and he rushed into it, and then was swallowed by the mist.
