"Where, the hell, is the sinner who guards the key?" Alice frowned as she stared at the young man in front of her, who looked to be in his early twenties, but his expression was strangely distorted by fear, and her left hand, which was clenching the other's neck, became more and more impatient. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

But Alice didn't get the answer he was hoping for, but a series of gurgling sounds from chattering teeth and an intermittent "I don't know".

"Gurgle. I. Cluck.. Ignorance... ”

"Tsk, in vain. ”

Ignoring the pimple on her forehead due to her unsatisfactory results, Alice did not stab the sharp knife in her hand after receiving the so-called answer from the young guard, but jerked back the Hidden Blade that popped out of her wrist and struck the guard in the neck with her arm instead.

The guards had been hit to such a heavy blow, and they had not yet possessed the muscle armor that had been cultivated over time, so they fell into a deep coma almost at the same moment as they were hit.

However, speaking of which, the new generation of guards in front of him, who was not very brave, was naturally not a fool who dared to risk his life alone, and with him appeared with several other guards who probably formed a team with the young guards.

But to be honest, Alice, as a veteran assassin, really didn't pay attention to this skirmish encounter, plus they were small in number, and the space they were in was a very narrow corridor in the mansion, so as long as she did it before these guards used the new gadget of "guns", Alice was sure enough to solve it with just counterattack skills, or even play with these soldiers in the palm of her hand.

And the guard who was specially left behind, it was only because Alice felt that this guy was relatively young and his mind might not be very mature, and it was easier to get the information he needed that he didn't let him follow in the footsteps of his predecessors in the first place.

As for why he didn't take his life in the end, it was probably because Alice felt that this guy was young and could "change his ways".

After throwing the fainted young guard directly in place, and keeping him company with the four or five lifeless seniors lying beside him, Alice jumped out of the window, and before hitting the ground, the hook was disemboweled, swinging across the warehouse below, and with the help of memory, the hook hooked another window in the courtyard that was still flickering.

The shards of glass ejected from the shattered windows caused the shrill screams of the maids in the room, who were huddled in the dark corners, but the screams disappeared as soon as Alice frowned and shook her Hidden Blade in front of them.

Then came the usual interrogation time, and probably because these lowest-ranking subordinates of the palace did not have too strong loyalty to the royal family, and because they were afraid of the evil star who stood in front of them and dared to commit murder in the palace, the maids hardly hesitated for long to explain everything they knew.

However, the results of these maids' explanations were somewhat unexpected by Alice, because these little girls had no idea that there was such a person as "sinners" living in the mansion where they worked, and they did not even hear the slightest rumor.

So much so that the confusion on the faces of the little maids was so obvious that they were engraved on their faces after hearing Alice mention that they were looking for the so-called "sinners".

However, this time Alice was not completely without gain, he learned from these maids that the staffing that had not changed for ten years here had suddenly been newly staffed, and a new servant was arranged to enter the mansion, and probably because there were not enough rooms in the mansion for the subordinates to live, and everyone and the newcomer did not live together, and they did not know where they were arranged by the housekeeper in this mansion.

Originally, this was not a big deal, but it was strange that this newcomer almost did not appear in front of everyone at all, although the newcomer had been in the mansion for more than two months, and he should have mingled with his colleagues who also worked in the palace, but the number of times a few maids and newcomers met could be counted on their fingers.

Strange personnel changes, mysterious new minions?

Alice bowed slightly, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that the so-called new servant was a false identity prepared by the royal family for "sinners" in order to hide people's eyes, but just as Alice was about to ask the little maids for more specific information, the door of the room was suddenly kicked by a big foot with iron boots, and then a group of royal guards wearing guards and armed with rifles and bayonets poured into the room.

"Ah!!" With the arrival of the guards, the maids who had been quietly confessing information in the room suddenly exploded again as if some kind of string had been triggered, and they all ripped their throats again, and rushed out of the room with a scream.

And these guards will not stop these subordinates, but just hold their bayonets like a vigilant flood beast, staring at the assassin in front of them, and judging from the trembling hands of these guards, they have probably found those corpses upstairs, knowing the horror of Alice's skills.

"Ten, eleven, twelve... There are 12 of them? That's a little bit of a lot. Glancing back and forth at the guards, Alice bent down slightly, guarding the guards as the Hidden Blade popped out of her wrist again.

I don't know who made the first move, Alice only remembers that when the bright bayonet was about to stab in front of her, the sword in her hand instinctively moved.

The Hidden Blade in his left hand held the stabbing blade, and at the same time rushed into the opponent's arms with an arrow, and the right hand slashed the guard's throat without any delay.

Blood gushed out, staining Alice's Hidden Blade red, and burning the eyes of the guards' companions, presumably bloodied by the death of their companions, and the guards, who were still afraid in their hearts, completely let go of their hands and feet after seeing the blood.

After the first companion to stab the bayonet was stabbed in the throat and slashed his spine, the two guards standing behind him immediately stepped forward, their bayonets pointed at Alice's abdomen and chest.

This pattern of attack can almost be called a textbook model as a means of dealing with ordinary thieves, but at this moment they have picked the wrong opponent, as a well-honed assassin, long before the bayonets of the two guards stabbed her, Alice returned to her defensive posture of counterattacking.

The knife moves again, and the blood gushes again.

With a simple turn of Alice, the guard's blade struck the air, but they never had a chance to swing their second sword, for the short sword, which symbolized death, had already been sent into the throats of both of them.

"Bump... As Alice withdrew her fangs, the two lifeless bodies slammed limply into the ground, making two dull dull sounds, and at the same time sounding the bell for the next wave of attacks by the guards, but with the roar of the three or four guards beside her, Alice was keenly aware of a slight mechanical knock in this large amount of noise.

"Bang!" The deafening sound of a huge gunshot almost deafened everyone's ears in the small space, but before the smoke from the gunpowder could be burned out, the assassin who was supposed to be lying in a pool of blood actually broke through the smoke and slit the throat of one of the guards again before they could recover from the gunfire, and the assassin had not been scarred by the bullet all over his body.

"You damn Templar assassins!!" looked at the colleague lying at the assassin's feet, with a large hole in his abdomen cut by a bullet, the chief of the guard who was wearing a steel helmet and a chain armor didn't know where the bullet had just gone, and the white fangs under the steel helmet continued to mesh hard, and even blood flowed.

The thin sword in his hand kept throwing out sword flowers, and the strength he had trained over the years made every blow of the chief of the guard full of destructive power, coupled with the chain mail and outer armor that almost armed him to the teeth, so that Alice's counterattack skills almost did not cause much damage to the chief guard, and Alice couldn't help but have a feeling of being unable to speak, plus the other guards began to distance themselves from Alice and began to switch to firearms to fight, which suddenly made Alice's situation even more difficult.

"What's the matter, Assassin of the Temple, come again, come again, aren't you very good at fighting?" the chief guard roared, stabbing with his thin sword, leaving large and small wounds on Alice's body, who had briefly revealed flaws one after another in order to avoid bullets, and seeing that his attack worked, the captain of the guard suddenly increased in confidence, and tried his best to make his attack more powerful as if he had taken a stimulant.

"You damned traitors who should have gone to hell!"

However, it was not a desperate roar or a dying counterattack that answered him, but a small shuttle dart.

The shuttle dart was not large, nor was it very destructive, and it did not even leave any scars on the armor of the chief of the guard, but the tough silk thread attached to the tail of the shuttle dart whirled around the neck of the chief of the guard while the shuttle dart rotated around the neck of the chief of the guard, and suddenly penetrated the gap in the lower part of the steel helmet and wrapped around the neck of the chief of the guard.

"Whew. Forehead... "Just like the irrational actions of a drowning man out of his desire to survive, while being coldly tightened his neck, the chief of the guard instinctively gave up his thin sword, and while trying his best to breathe, his hands scratched in vain the silk thread that had been embedded in the flesh.

However, Alice did not give the chief guard the slightest respite, and pulled the thin thread connected to the shuttle dart in his hand hard, and he was even quickly closing the distance between himself and the chief guard.

Due to the use of the body of the chief of the guard as a shield, the other guards who were still standing in the room naturally could not continue to shoot, and under the leadership of a few daring guards, several guards also raised their bayonets again, hoping to help the chief of the guard relieve the siege, and launched a new round of attacks on Alice.

However, the guards were still a step too late, and by the time they rushed to the daring Assassin in front of them, Alice had already pulled the chief guard in front of him, and what was waiting for the chief guard was Alice, who had already practiced a thousand actions since becoming an assassin.

"Gera... The crisp sound of bone cracking reached Alice's arms around the neck of the chief guard, and the chief of the guard, who was still struggling, stopped moving under this small voice.

And without the guard chief's containment, the guards who were about to rush in front of Alice just now were no longer any threat.

The sword is like the wind, the shadow is like a dance, and the two small hidden blades are like petals floating in the rain of blood.

The Assassin ... Where you are harvesting life, it's like taking a leisurely tour of your own garden.

"Uh-huh... When the last guard in the room resented her sword, Alice shook her hands and shook off the blood stained with her Hidden Blade, and he did not laugh at the guards' lack of martial arts or the strange schemes, but simply lamented that these ignorant guards were not born at the right time to gain the favor of the Templars before their faith was finalized.

"Stamped, stomp. The sound of footsteps in the distance outside the door seemed to have disturbed all the guards who had rushed to support, and in the face of such a large number of enemies, even a great assassin as brave as Alice would inevitably capsize in the gutter.

Alice frowned, followed the window of the room to confirm the location of the next room she needed to explore, ignored the wound on her body that had just been stabbed by the chief of the guard, and stood directly on the edge of the windowsill with her booted legs, while opening her hands to the sky and leaping hard.

The wind in her ears became stronger and stronger, and Alice also calculated the right time, and raised her wrist suddenly, but before the flying claws could shoot out, a black shadow suddenly appeared above Alice's head, and it slammed into Alice's body.

The huge impact suddenly made Alice dizzy, but before he could recover his strength, there was a sharp pain in his lower back, and at the same time, there was a very strange feeling that her internal organs were stirred.

"What!?" The intense pain made Alice snap back to her senses, but the body that attacked him just now was not an arrow or bullet, but a person, the young guard he had just let go.

"You... Alice's eyes widened, he didn't expect that the other party would be able to come to his senses in such a short time, remove the bayonet from his rifle, and jump off the building with the determination to die to attack him, but at this point, he had no intention of letting him go any longer.

"This knife is for my Father... The boy's words came to an abrupt end, not because he had suddenly changed his temper and given up his revenge, but because Alice's Hidden Blade slashed through his throat and kicked him away at the same time.

It's blood again ... Alice had seen too much red in this unquiet night, but at any given moment, the Templar Assassin had realized that she had seen more.

Although the surprise attack of the young guards was resolved, Alice did not have time to release the claws that had already been charged due to the change in plans, but thankfully, the landing point was not a soft haystack, but it was not a hard ground.

"Boom... The violent impact opened a huge opening in the fragile roof of the small warehouse in the courtyard, a large amount of smoke and dust flew, and all kinds of debris accumulated in the warehouse flew around, but fortunately, this series of bumps and bumps did not hit the bayonet in Alice's abdomen, thus causing secondary damage to the wound.

Although she was lucky not to have another fatal injury, after this series of accidents, Alice found that she was still injured, although it was not fatal, but now, it is a very fatal injury.

Because he had just hit his head first in the process of falling.

Although the instinct of the assassin allowed Alice to adjust her body posture at the first time of the accident, due to the fact that there were too many clutter in the warehouse, or bad luck, even if she was well prepared, Alice still hit her head while rolling off the force.

The violent impact made Alice feel like the whole world was trembling with his brain for a moment, but when Alice gradually fell into vertigo, she suddenly found that there was still a light in the corner at the end of the warehouse.

It was a girl of about seventeen or eighteen years old who was sitting at a wooden table writing something.

The loud noise behind her made the girl look back in some surprise, but there was no panic in the girl's demeanor.

I saw the girl stand up gently, hugged the strange-looking but somewhat inexplicably familiar rabbit puppet on the wooden table to her chest, and looked curiously at the uninvited guest who broke into her room.

And the uninvited guest, who was about to fall unconscious, also looked at her, at the golden key on her chest, carved with a griffin pattern.
