Loristed XII

There is a tall tower in the center of Loristed, and a huge bell is placed below the lookout at the top of the tower. From here, you can clearly see most of the structure of the town.

Not so long ago, the Parrots of the Brotherhood and other high-ranking Assassins had stayed here.

But only one person remains on the lookout.

A Wood Elf, to be exact.

The Brotherhood's Master Assassin, Gabriella.

If you follow the ancient precepts of the creed. She deserves a name that is more befitting of her identity and power—'The Silencer'.

She opened the long box she was carrying and pulled out a pale longbow. Unlike the usual elven creations with moonstone inlaid gold, this longbow, named 'Gabriella's End', is made of unicorn horns and glass rock. The enchantment is powerful, and every shot is able to bring a bone-chilling chill to her enemies.

After this, it's the arrows.

Humming an unknown nursery rhyme, the wood elves pulled the long, sealed, toothpick-like strips out of a small box with two locks. Filled with the hollow part of the white carved arrow shaft.

This is an alchemy construct filled with enchantments. It's small, but it's powerful.

After this, the Wood Elf placed the silver arrowhead and tuned the strings again.

"Everything is as I wish. ”

Put the arrow on the bow and pull it full.

[The southeast wind speed is seven and three quarters.] Straight-line distance of 2,075 feet......】

[Downward Correction ......]

"It's amazing vitality. She exclaimed softly. The pupil quickly shrank into a small dot!

"Rest in peace. ”

The air vibrated in a circle of thick ripples, and in the midst of these countless empty rings, a pale light burst out!

Fifteen minutes ago......

In terms of absolute combat power. The original Vijes was more than a step stronger than the current Qatar. However, the difference in Alice's strength they faced was even more vast! although they were still at a disadvantage in the battle, they firmly pinned Alice in this small block!

Three more minutes at most. The guards who followed the sound would surround the place. By that time Alice will surely die!

[Can't go on like this......]

She forced her way forward, and at the cost of a sword in her left shoulder, she opened a hole in the encirclement with a few broken line slashes!

"Don't try to escape!"

Before she could rush out, Qatar's sturdy body blocked her way, and she slashed off her head with heavy swords in both hands and a gale!

'Kuang-!'

The giant sword fell, and countless tiny cracks were smashed into the bluestone slab ground. And yet he slashed it out!

It's just a feint! Her real purpose is the other side!

The sharp blade cut through the flesh, and the girl's trembling back reflected an uncontrollable pain in her. But it was in this moment that she had broken through the encirclement, leaving both Qatar and his guards behind.

Subsequently......

"Yol-ToorShul―――――― Breath of Fire"

The sweeping dragon fire almost set the air on fire. The guards at the front completely vaporized the moment they made contact, turning into scorching smoke. And behind them was no better—the flames of extreme heat had scorched them alive.

Only a handful survived the surging flames. Qatar, which hid the fastest, even escaped hundreds of feet away before daring to stop!

He watched the burning fire with palpitations, and the muscles in his face twitched.

"It's not the same as in intelligence. She's only used one dragon roar!Those fools should be hanged!" he said resentfully, but then he was secretly glad that if Alice hadn't tried to escape, he wouldn't have been able to survive such a blaze, even with all the enchanted armor he had on him.

"My lord, what should we do?" the surviving guards gathered, vigilantly guarding his surroundings.

"What else can I do!? Why don't you go and tell the ragtags to do it!" he waved his hand vigorously to hide the uneasiness in his heart.

[Assassin of the Brotherhood of Hope...... Can be worthy of the deposit of 10,000 Septin......]

…………

"Uh-h It's not that she doesn't want to get rid of all the defeated soldiers. But the current situation really does not allow it.

The pain in the lungs was scorching, and with every breath, the air seemed to be as if hundreds of sharp needles were hidden.

[Can't you use Dragon's Roar anymore?] 】

The knuckles of the fingers pressed against the wall ached. She looked away, only to find that blood was beginning to seep out between her fingernails.

The vision also became blurred in the shaking, and every qiē in front of him was dyed with a faint layer of crimson. And the tone continues to deepen.

This must be all blood shed. She was a little surprised that it hadn't flowed in yet.

[The way I am now...... It must be ugly. 】

[However, you can't stay here.] 】

She took a few hard breaths and continued to rush outward.

…………

After that, it's killing.

Slash them, hurt them, kill them. Dye their banners crimson with blood. Even if vision becomes blurry and hearing becomes dull. Alice was still able to find the route of least threat.

Then, with her own sword, she gave an end to those who got in her way.

The original sword had long since been broken, and I don't know how many people's blood was stained on it. But no matter how she killed, no matter how she killed, her enemies came to her as if they were endless.

Kill ten, and ten more.

Kill twenty, and twenty more.

Kill a hundred, and a hundred.

But so what, no matter how fierce these guards are to death, no matter how brave they are to move forward. After all, it can be killed.

She is the storm, she is the thunder, she is the death of all things.

[Before my body is exhausted, I will slaughter you completely.] 】

She was on the verge of breaking through the town's outer walls.

Until the first time the sword she swung was blocked.

[High-level assassin. 】

Alice reined in her steps, and the court swordsmanship, which was still immature, was now used by her like a stream.

The first sword, slashing through the Assassin's weapon.

The second sword, slashing through the enemy's wrist.

With the third sword, another assassin stopped her.

But so what, the strong are still the strong, and the weak are still the weak. The first assassin has lost his combat effectiveness, so it is only a matter of time before the second and third are addressed.

No matter how many of them come, no matter how strange weapons they use, what strange spells they use. If you want to break through Alice's sword, you have to leave blood behind.

Avoid deadly spells, allowing the wounded to stand in the way of attack, and dodge the trails and traps hastily laid by the Assassins. Finally, slay out the weakest of them!

She did the first three steps, but at the fourth step, her own body stopped her.

toxins, spread further.

Two dark red streams flowed from her eyes. And the original perfect sword strength also revealed flaws, allowing the originally mortal assassin to escape.

It was not tears that remained, but pure blood.

[I can't see it.] 】

With her instincts and impressions from memory, she blocked the attacks of the remaining Assassins one by one.

However, Alice's sword broke in the final blow.

"Hmm. She let out a soft snort. There was a deep scar under the ribs.

"You ...... Don't want to kill me!"

The second mana exploded, and the assassins who had been prepared for it dodged one after another. But at the same time, it also gave Alice a chance.

A chance to escape.

Even if she can't see, even if she can't hear clearly. Alice's instincts still show her the right direction.

When the smoke and dust were dispelled by the spell, the only trace Alice left behind was a puddle of blood mixed with crystal blue filaments.

"About six ounces. One of the Assassins took a cursory glance and came to an accurate conclusion.

She had very few cards left.

A qiē is going on as smoothly as planned.

……

Run!

Run!

Use what a qiē is able to exploit as an obstacle.

[You must find a sword first.] 】

She quickly made her way through the dwelling, only a few knives to cut meat. The shivering owner in the corner had a sword behind his back. But when Alice kicked him away, she was disappointed to find that the sword was rusty and about to break.

It doesn't work.

The Assassins and Guards had not yet appeared, but the pressure they put on Alice was increasing.

They're right behind.

It's not far from Alice.

And rightfully so, the smell of blood she left behind along the way would be smelled by anyone with a nose.

What should I do?

[The footsteps of the pursuers are getting closer.] Are you going to snatch a sword from them?]

[No, if you delay a little, you will get into trouble. 】

[Wait, this terrain is ......]

Alice suddenly remembered that there was an armory of the garrison not far ahead. And now there is clearly not much defense there.

She took a deep breath and forcibly held back the sharp pain of the cracked wound.

Sprint with all your might!

One punch, one kick. The only two guards were killed by Alice before they could react!

She only took five steps forward before a sharp steel sword was in her hand.

[Wait, this spicy smell ......]

Brimstone!!

"Boom !!!!"

The entire armory collapsed in the violent explosion. Several Brotherhood Assassins armed with giant dwarven crossbows also appeared on the rooftops of nearby houses.

Finally lured her to this place, how could it be possible without setting up an ambush!?

As the blast swept through, a man-tall metal ball appeared in the center of gravity of the armory. It's Gerd's spell, and Alice seems to be fond of it. Its appearance was not unexpected by the Assassins.

"Shoot !!"

Several one-foot-long crossbow arrows pierced the metal ball. But there was not a trace of blood!

"She's down there!"

One of the Assassins screamed in surprise when Alice was smashed in the head by a leaping aloft!

Then, another!

Alice's blood clotted.

An unprecedented sense of crisis enveloped her whole body. It was as if a sharp dagger was pressed against the surface of her heart.

And now she's in mid-air, unable to leverage her strength.

It means - death.

The Assassins and guards who followed the trail saw only a glimmer of light.

The pale light hit the girl who was leaping high.

In the ensuing explosion, her entire lower body was engulfed in white light. The remaining half of the body was pushed hundreds of feet away in the shockwave. Then it fell heavily to the ground.

Her shell twisted reflexively a few times, then stopped moving.

PS: Alice: If I knew that the price would be so big, I wouldn't die in the Dragon Chapter!

PS2: It's a pain to patch and play
