Chapter 22: Departure
Phil took advantage of the darkness to enter his room through the window, without alarming anyone, and threw the black-clad assassin on the floor, hastily uncovering the strip of cloth from his shoulder, the wound did not turn black or anything else, and the black-clad assassin only smeared poison on the first inevitable arrow. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The quality of the black-clothed assassin is very good, he must have been following Phil as soon as he got out of the hotel, and he didn't find out at all, until the seaside, the black-clothed assassin entered the water from a distance in order to get closer, and then approached Phil and sent a poisoned arrow, he just didn't think that Phil, the apprentice wizard who was a pre-wizard, was still a knight, which led to failure and had to be assassinated at close range.
Phil carefully tended to the wound on his shoulder, changed into the same clothes, and swaggered back to his room from the door of the inn. As he passed through the junction of the White Wizard and Dark Wizard areas, he encountered a familiar face.
It was the boy who used a zero-level witchcraft on him on a sea ship.
Phil later inquired that he was the Morin with a fourth-class wizard qualification.
Merlin was taken aback when he saw Phil walking towards the room in the Dark Wizard area, but he looked left and right and saw that no one was in front of him.
"Despicable inferior, your name is Phil, right?"
Phil looked at him with a frown, not sure if his injured body could flash the opponent's zero-level witch weapon, as long as he was ready, he found that in fact, the zero-level witch weapon was indeed not that scary.
"You've tested your wizarding credentials, but don't get carried away," Merlin looked bitter about what happened to him last night on the ship, "You're still a!"
"Get out!"
Phil raised his right hand, and Merlin was frightened and dodged to the side, but immediately looked at Phil angrily, only more carefully.
If it weren't for the fact that the sequelae of the Flame Ray Zero-level witchcraft hadn't completely subsided, if it weren't for the fact that private fighting was forbidden inside the inn...... There were so many "nos" that he could only watch Phil walk back to the room indifferently.
Walking back to the room, Phil saw the black-clad assassin still unconscious on the floor. After treating the black assassin's wound a little, Phil sat aside and waited.
After a while, the black-clad assassin awoke.
"I can't say who hired me to kill you. "The Black Assassin knew what Phil was asking about, but he had to follow the mercenary rules.
Phil didn't speak, the Black Assassin was a smart man.
"But I can give a clue," said the black-clad Assassin, "that man, when he vented, made it vaguely clear that he had come from the same ship as you, and that he had a confrontation with you in public. ”
"I see. "Phil had the only guess before, and now it's just a verification.
"What else do I have to give. The black-clad assassin continued to ask, this news certainly couldn't be exchanged for his life.
"Two things, I'll let you leave safe and sound. ”
Three days passed quickly, and Phil left Victoria Harbour with a mediocre caravan with his voucher.
In the depths of the dense forest next to a trade road, two figures, one red and one black, flashed through the forest. In front of them, a fragrant fox fled frantically, fragrant fox is a very fast fox, not only the flesh is sweet with a strange fragrance, even the snow-white fur has a fragrance all year round, often one of the furs that those noble ladies and ladies compete for, but the fragrant fox is extremely fast, vigilant, and there are very few authentic fragrant fox furs in the market.
Sensing the threat of life approaching from behind, the Fragrant Fox jumped over a bush and narrowly avoided the sword wielded in the hand of the red figure.
The red figure laughed loudly, and slammed his feet on the trunk of the tree beside him, and rushed forward with his strength.
"I've won!" said the red figure, the big sword in his hand already swinging towards the fragrant fox who had no time to escape.
"Not necessarily!" the slightly backward black figure retorted at this time, and saw that his figure suddenly took a trance, and instantly took a big step forward, and a cross sword in his hand reached forward like a swimming dragon, stabbing into the back of the neck of the fragrant fox, ending its short life.
"Haha, finally let me win once!"
The black figure is Phil, who left Victoria Harbour with the caravan, and the red figure is Miranda, who chose the Black Sotalla Academy with him.
"If it weren't for your footwork, I would have won. "Miranda is just talking, in fact, she admires it very much.
During the three days after leaving Victoria Harbour, after the caravan entered the dense forest area, the two of them often took advantage of the caravan's rest time to go out hunting, one for food and the other for comparing skills.
In the past, Miranda was even better, after all, she had reached the middle level of knighthood, and Phil's cultivation days were short, and she was only at the beginning level.
However, today Phil suddenly revealed a new footwork, which made Miranda slightly missing.
And Phil's footwork was the first quid pro quo from the black-clad assassin whose name Phil had never asked for - half of the black-clad assassin's net worth and the footwork he used in their fight.
It was this footwork that kept the black-clad assassin close to Phil, not only making it difficult for Phil to escape, but also failing to attack him many times.
The footwork is called "Breaking the Wind".
It is said to be a broken wind, but there will be no trace of breaking wind when used, which can make the user more agile and more importantly, it can instantly approach the opponent in a fight.
Phil has not yet obtained the meditation method of the academy, and the previous meditation method did not dare to use it, except for studying the wizard's notebook, he has been practicing this wind-breaking footwork, fortunately, his physical fitness is good, although the knight's talent is not too good, but he also learned a little in three days, and won the first victory in the competition with Miranda.
"Huh, there's another one!" While Phil was dealing with the fragrant fox, Miranda immediately stepped forward after discovering that there was another fragrant fox not far away.
But seeing that Phil found that he couldn't catch up with Miranda, he simply shook his left hand, and a dark bow shook out from behind his back, holding it in his left hand, and his right hand pulled it back, and a bow and arrow were on the string.
"Whew!"
When Miranda heard the sound of breaking wind, she immediately understood that Phil was using a bow and arrow, and without thinking much about the swing of the big sword, she wanted to block the way forward with the bow and arrow, but Phil's bow and arrow speed was amazing, Miranda was a step late, and the fragrant fox in the distance had already fallen in response.
"Bastard, you're cheating!" Miranda yelled.
Phil leisurely walked over to collect the prey: "Who made you not learn archery, this is ability, not cheating." ”
Miranda looked at the triumphant Phil in annoyance, but was helpless.
Phil gave full play to half of the net worth of the black-clothed assassins, the fine cross sword flowing from the Victoria Harbour workshop, the dark bow and arrow of the dark elf clan, and a good leather armor, plus some small things, half of the net worth of a formal knight was squandered by him.
Phil no longer dared to think about what would happen if he didn't even have a witch weapon when the assassination came.
In the final battle with the black-clothed assassin, if he hadn't used a trick light spell to limit the black-clothed assassin's vision at the end, then the dagger would not have slashed off the flesh on his shoulder.
After pulling the bow and arrow once, Phil was a little impulsive, the wound had just healed, and now he had torn a small hole, but fortunately, there was no problem, and after a few days of treatment, with the recovery power of the official knight, it would be fine.
"Let's go, go back. Phil said, carrying the two fragrant foxes without caring about the injured shoulders.
Miranda stepped forward and grabbed one of the larger ones: "If you're lucky, I won't release the water next time." ”
Phil smirked and didn't speak.
At this time, it was evening, and the afterglow of the setting sun was sprinkled into the dense forest, and the shadowy dusk light pulled the two figures carrying the fragrant fox into the elder.
The boy and girl occasionally argued a few words, and then continued to walk slowly.
Phil had never felt happier than he had ever felt at this moment.
And as far away as Victoria Harbour three days away, the night before, in the back alley of a tavern.
A knocked out teenager was poured all kinds of spirits at this time, and the surging strength of the spirits made him quickly sober up and drunk immediately, and he didn't see a single figure clearly from the beginning to the end.
The liquor blurred his memory, and he would only think he was drunk somehow.
The drunken teenager is immediately pushed into the tavern by a group of street corner Yoriko and asks for a large glass of liquor from the bartender.
Those Laizi took the opportunity to have a good drink, and left quickly, only to leave after one quietly untied a ring on the young man's finger.
The drunken teenager spends the night in spirits and hallucinations, and only walks out of the tavern at midnight.
He staggered onto the bridge next to the tavern, and when the sea breeze blew, the boy immediately threw up on the railing.
A black shadow suddenly jumped out from under the bridge, and with a slight pull, the boy fell to his death under the bridge.
If the boy hadn't died here, there would have been an uncontrolled unmanned carriage in front of him, and a bamboo pole with sharp cuts that had been blown off by the wind from the height of the house......
It wasn't until the morning that the boy's body was found by the Minato District Guards, but at that time, the boy had no strands on his body, and even his underwear and pants were stripped off by the homeless people passing by.
The escort could only see naked corpses with no clues, and even if they found it in the tavern, they would only learn about a group of mediocre and useless laizi, who could die in a few days in the Heicheng district of Victoria Harbour.
On this day, a wizard from the Nine Snakes Academy was a little annoyed, he had just learned that a student who had chosen the fourth-class wizard qualification of their academy had fallen to his death under the bridge next to the tavern because he had been drunk in the tavern the night before.
But no matter how angry he was, he had no choice but to sigh that he had lost a seed for the future of the academy and issue a ban on alcohol among the remaining students.
A few months later, a wizard from a distant family will come to find out if the accidental death of a young man with a high talent for wizarding in his family was due to a drunken experience.
The wizard had his own unique means of extracting the last trace of the boy's soul, and he would only see that the boy seemed to go to the tavern to drink, and then accidentally fell down while throwing up on the bridge, so there was no resentment in his soul.
Although the boy once resented another boy, he had hired a black-clad assassin to assassinate him, leaving only pleasure behind.
So in the end, this wizard could only get that the boy did die unexpectedly, and in the end, he was a little sorry that a zero-level witch weapon of the family had been lost, although it was marked, but the wizard world was so big, it was impossible to find it again.
And behind this whole incident, a black-clothed assassin with the strength of a formal knight, although his body is still injured, but after a failure, the assassination design can obviously be easily completed, and the two assassinations are one of the official knights and the other is a drunken mediocre teenager, there is no comparison.
Before he was ready to assassinate, he also infiltrated the group of Laizi, and easily stole a ring from a drunken teenager, and a few years later he sold the ring with strange abilities through the black market and made an unprecedented fortune.
And this is the second quid pro quo that Phil gave the Black Assassin in exchange for survival.
