??

The hill war hammer in his hand came with bursts of rebound force, which made Zhang Bowen's hands a little numb. However, as a dwarf warrior, Zhang Bowen naturally would not worry about this kind of hand-to-hand combat. His eyes were full of excitement now, and now he didn't exert any strength, and he had only used the power of the Hill Warhammer to grapple with the opponent before.

An earthy yellow spiritual power was released, and in an instant, his own strength also exploded, three times stronger than his previous strength. The hill war hammer in his hand bombarded out again, and as soon as he hit the dagger of the man in black, he directly blasted the opponent out.

The man in black who used the secret technique was not so vulnerable, and after Zhang Bowen blasted away, he quickly got up from the ground. And Zhang Bowen had just entered the state at this time, and the dwarven race's desire for battle had completely exploded.

The battle intent in his eyes was great, and he rushed towards the other party with the hill war hammer, as if he had forgotten about the other man in black who was hiding. There's only one person in my eyes.

The man in black who was hiding in the darkness was waiting for this opportunity, and when they were fighting just now, he didn't make a move. When his companion was blown away by the opponent just now, he still didn't make a move. He's waiting, waiting for the perfect opportunity to show up for a one-hit kill, and that's it.

Therefore, even if Zhang Bowen killed his companion just now, if there was no suitable opportunity to make a move, he would still not make a move. And now, Zhang Bowen has obviously relaxed his vigilance in the dark because of his desire to fight. In this way, he had a chance to find a suitable opportunity, and he slowly moved his position in the dark, looking for a chance to kill with one hit.

The man in black in the bright place saw Zhang Bowen rushing over quickly, he hadn't recovered from Zhang Bowen's blow, and his whole body was still in great pain.

Zhang Bowen didn't wait for them to recover, the hill war hammer had already been raised above his head, and the next second it would definitely be smashed towards his head angrily. Of course, the man in black would not sit still, and the dagger in his hand shot out, pointing directly at Zhang Bowen's eyes.

With the other hand, he quickly conjured up a spiritual dagger, and his body quickly dodged to the right. Zhang Bowen saw the opponent's dagger shoot out, and instinctively avoided the part to be returned. However, the hill war hammer in his hand still smashed out, but because of the dodge just now, the hill war hammer that was supposed to hit could only hit a shadow of the other party at this time.

A thrilling encounter between the two sides, although neither side got the result they wanted, but there was one person who finally waited for the opportunity he wanted. Just when Zhang Bowen's hill war hammer smashed out, and the strength could not be completely recovered, the man in black lurking in the darkness was dispatched.

The lightless dagger appeared quietly from behind Zhang Bowen's side like lightning, and stabbed straight into the heart of Zhang Bowen's vest. He is very confident, and now that this opportunity, Zhang Bowen will not be able to stop his attack even if he finds it. Even if the opponent can avoid his vital parts, he will not be able to completely avoid his attacks.

He had already thought about it, and it was basically impossible to deal with a master of this level to really kill with one hit. As long as his highly poisonous dagger can rub against Zhang Bowen's body a little, and after the poison can successfully contaminate Zhang Bowen's body, then Zhang Bowen will definitely slowly lose his combat effectiveness in his unique poison, and in the end, it will still be their palm meat.

The dagger was very fast, and in one breath, it was about to pierce into Zhang Bowen's body. However, Zhang Bowen does not seem to have reacted yet. The man in black didn't expect to be able to complete the assassination so easily, it was much easier than he imagined, and it even made him a little unbelievable.

But what he didn't see from this perspective was that the moment he just appeared, in fact, the corners of Zhang Bowen's mouth had already raised a confident smile. In fact, Zhang Bowen had already discovered the location of this man in black, and had been waiting for him to make a move.

The reason why he tried his best against the other party was to lure out this poisonous snake hiding in the shadows. And at this moment, since this poisonous snake has come out of the hole, the hunting net that Zhang Bowen has carefully arranged from the beginning can be safely closed.

The dagger of the man in black stabbed into Zhang Bowen's body, which should have been splashed with blood, and there should have been a sense of familiarity of piercing **. But none of these things appeared, and he himself suddenly felt a pain in his chest, which came and went quickly, and then the whole person gradually lost consciousness, and his vision began to blur until it was completely black.

Until he died, he didn't see that he was actually behind himself, Zhang Bowen was already waiting there. And the stand-in who fought with his companions before was conjured by Zhang Bowen using the power of the earth, and he had 50% of Zhang Bowen's strength.

Zhang Bowen looked at the man in black who was paralyzed in front of him, his internal organs were completely shattered by Zhang Bowen's hill war hammer in the blow just now.

"Hmph, do you think you'll be hiding? Fortunately, I learned such a trick from Xu Min at the beginning. Otherwise, you will really have to follow your way. Okay, now it's just you, let's have a good time!" Zhang Bowen carried his hill war hammer and turned to look at the position of the other man in black.

But what he saw was emptiness, no one.

"Huh, people!!" Zhang Bowen looked depressedly east and west, and found that there was no other person's breath in the room at this time. Only then did he react: "Damn, just let him run away, really! I haven't had enough fun!" Zhang Bowen walked to the door depressedly, and after yelling at the guards outside the door, the guards hurriedly ran in.

When they saw the corpse of the man in black on the ground, they were all shocked. I didn't expect that under their heavy guards, there were still people who could sneak in here and assassinate their king. In addition to shock, their hearts are more of a kind of fear.

Fortunately, the king has nothing to do, otherwise the stability that the dwarves have finally ushered in will definitely be chaotic because of the death of the king and the leaderlessness of the dragons.

The commander of the guards was also late at the moment, and when he saw the corpse on the ground, his face was also cold.

"My Majesty, are you all right? Dereliction of duty, please condemn your Majesty!" the commander immediately knelt on the ground, pleading guilty.

Not to mention how these assassins got in, as long as there are people and things that shouldn't appear in this steel castle, he, the head of the guard, is responsible for this. So he came in without any justification at all, and there were no superfluous words, just kneeling down and asking for guilt!

The people of the dwarf race are so sincere, their own responsibility is their own, and they never know how to shirk their responsibility.

Zhang Bowen looked at this upright leader at this time, this leader he usually knows, he is very serious about his work, and he has always been meticulous. Moreover, no one can guarantee that this kind of assassin's infiltration and assassination will be 100% eradicated.

Zhang Bowen is not ready to blame anyone, not to mention that he has not moved his muscles and bones for a long time, although this time it is not enjoyable, but at least there is still some fun. What's more, Zhang Bowen also knew that this assassin had infiltrated, and if it weren't for the response of the inner ghost, he wouldn't have been able to pass the heavy defense of this steel castle at all.

"You get up first, I can't blame you for this. You have someone deal with this place first, and then you can inform the two brothers of the Earth, the Earth, and the Fire, and let them come to my room to meet me, I have something to look for them. Although Zhang Bowen is still a very playful child in his heart, he must pretend to be mature in front of these people.

After Zhang Bowen left, he quickly returned to his room. He sat quietly in the room alone, thinking of the days when he fought and studied with Zhang Qian and them at the War College, how happy he was at that time. And later, when we came out to break through together, it was also a time of burning passion.

"Hey, I don't know where Zhang Qian and the others are now, whether there will be a lot of thrilling things," Zhang Bowen said with a sigh to himself. Since he became the king of the dwarf race, he has to face a large number of official documents every day and is busy dealing with various affairs of the dwarf race.

I barely have time for myself, and I don't have time to go out and get some fresh air. This is not the life Zhang Bowen wants for himself, the kind of ** full of fighting spirit in his body makes him unable to settle down in such a life at all.

But the responsibility of being a king has always pressed on him, so that he can't breathe.

"Knock knock knock~~~~~" Suddenly there was a knock outside the door, which directly pulled Zhang Bowen's thoughts back to reality. He was stunned for a moment, and stared blankly at the door. Then his pupils gradually contracted, and his eyes focused on the door. At this time, he remembered that he had spread the word that he wanted two people from the heart of the earth to come to see him, and the two of them must have arrived at the door now.

Zhang Bowen slowly stood up, walked to the door, and after opening the door, he really saw two people, the center of the earth and the earth fire.

When the two saw Zhang Bowen come out, they immediately bowed respectfully and said, "My king, I don't know what you have to tell us."

Zhang Bowen said lightly: "You guys come in first, let's talk about it." Then he left the door open and returned to his seat.

The two brothers looked at each other, and then followed Zhang Bowen's footsteps, walked into the room, and then closed the room casually.

"You should already know about the sneak attack just now. After Zhang Bowen saw them come in, he said straight to the point. Dwarvens are generally rectums, the kind that have something to say. And Zhang Bowen accurately inherited this excellent gene.

The center of the earth replied directly, "Yes, Your Majesty." The incident of this attack, the dragon commander has completely told the lowly position. We know what to do, and rest assured that such attacks will not happen again. ”

After Zhang Bowen listened, he couldn't cry or laugh. He himself was not meant to ask for sin, but had other things to say.

Seeing the center of the earth like this, he must have punished the dragon commander well. However, Zhang Bowen didn't really want to punish the Dragon Commander.

"No, no, no, Geocentric, you may have misunderstood me. This sneak attack is not the responsibility of the dragon commander, nor is it any dereliction of duty. There is no airtight wall, and if the enemy wants to infiltrate and infiltrate, there will always be a way, and none of us can fully anticipate and prevent this. But this attack, I felt something unusual, they were able to quietly touch my study, and even though the fighting was so fierce inside, there was no notice outside, which made me a little suspicious. Zhang Bowen explained.

Hearing this, the center of the earth and the earth fire finally began to understand what Zhang Bowen meant. Earthfire even asked directly, "Your Majesty, do you mean that you suspect that there are people inside our steel castle who are answering them?"

Although this possibility is extremely smiling, because the dwarves care most about their reputation, and are so loyal that it is almost impossible to betray and betray them. But there are no absolutes in everything, and what kind of energy can be done to be able to arrange such a powerful soundproof barrier so arrogantly and secretly outside his study.

That's why Zhang Bowen made such a bold guess.

"Yes, I just suspect that there is a mole in our steel castle, you think, you can arrange such a subtle sneak attack so calmly. This shows that there must be someone on the other side who is extremely familiar with the various arrangements inside our steel castle, and even very familiar with my schedule. They even sent killers with the ability to restrain me very much against my ability, if it weren't for my very strong ability to hide, maybe the person lying on the ground should be me. ”

After hearing this, the center of the earth and the fire of the earth were terrified.

"Your Majesty, who do you think the mole would be?" Although at first they did not believe that there would be a mole in this steel castle. But after listening to Zhang Bowen's analysis, they also have to believe that this possibility is very large.

Zhang Bowen shook his head and said, "I don't know, the reason why I came to you is that I hope you two can secretly investigate the traitor and find him out." There aren't many people I can fully trust in this castle, so I want you to keep this matter a secret, not even to anyone closest to you. ”

The center of the earth and the earth fire said as if flattered: "Your Majesty, rest assured, we will definitely do our best to handle this matter well." ”

Zhang Bowen saw their determined expressions and nodded.

……

In the VIP room, Ray and Mink actually chatted, and looking at the state of the two, it seemed that they were quite speculative.

Mink's face was filled with an expression of incredulity.

"Are you saying you suspect that there are spies in the Holy See of Light?" Mink raised his voice, asking the light rhetorically, as he seemed to say to himself.

Radiance nodded and said, "I'm not suspicious, I'm 100% sure." When I tried the family sneak attack before, I noticed a strange feeling. It stands to reason that this Holy City of Light is the headquarters of the Holy See of Light, although this Holy City of Light is very huge, but there is such a fierce battle in such a big place as the Exorcist Guild, and your Holy See actually didn't make any reaction in half a day, and it was even as if it didn't know it at all. Then the three cardinals were even more indifferent, although there were some obstacles to my strength, but they were obviously only perfunctory in name, and did not really take any substantive action. ”

After hearing this, Mink was also shocked in his heart. He had been training outside for the previous time, and he hadn't returned to this Holy City of Light for a long time. However, today I just came back, and I met this old opponent of the year. What made him even more unbelievable was that as soon as he came back, he heard this old opponent say such an amazing thing.

In fact, when it came out of the light's mouth, Mink had already believed seven or eight points. He knew too well that he had to be an old opponent. Although his temper is not very good, he is also very domineering. But his credibility and integrity are excellent, and if it were not true, he would never have made nonsense or exaggerated it.

But now it is unrealistic to say that it is not realistic to directly and thoroughly investigate the entire Bright Holy See, so we can only stand still and wait for the opportunity.

Mink frowned and asked, "Brother Radiance, the matter you said is very important, and I have to meet with the Pope before I can make a decision." Moreover, a thorough investigation of this matter of the Holy See is very huge, and it cannot be completed in a day or two. So why don't you go back first, and then contact you after I'm done talking to the Pope?"

When the light heard this, he immediately became anxious.

"Mink, the current situation, you just came back from outside, you may not fully understand it yet. This Holy City of Light has not been ordinarily peaceful lately. In addition to the matter of judging the family just mentioned, there is another very tricky matter. ”

When Mink heard that there was something else, he asked even more depressedly, "What's the matter?" As soon as he came back, how could it be all some unfavorable news. When did this Holy City of Light become so weak, anyone who came here seemed to be able to call for wind and rain.

The light cleared his throat, and then continued: "It can't be considered recent, it should have started a few months after you left the Holy City of Light, and a large number of black-clothed killers suddenly appeared in the Holy City of Light, and their targets were the cardinals of the Holy See of Light and the Grand Exorcist of our Exorcist Association. At first, it was just a single assassination, and with the abilities of the cardinal and the great exorcist, basically even if you can't beat it, you can still run away. But then it evolved into several or even a dozen masters besieging and killing one, until we both lost two masters each, and we finally found out their origins, the puppet army of the Eye of Destiny. ”

After hearing this name, Mink was also shocked: "Puppet Legion! This Eye of Destiny actually dispatched a puppet legion, just to kill the high-ranking of our two forces? What are they trying to do, to declare war on us? Even if the Eye of Destiny is very mysterious and very powerful, but if you want to deal with the Bright Sect and the Exorcist Association at the same time, even if their teeth are good, it is useless, right?"

Rays didn't answer Mink's words, but continued, "Their purpose is very clear, which is to kill our top masters. We, the Exorcists Guild, withdrew all the Great Exorcists from the Bright Holy City branch a long time ago, leaving me alone to guard here. And you, the Holy See, are all cardinals, who must travel together, and no longer act alone. But even so, the assassination of the Eye of Destiny did not stop. Recently, we and you have finally come up with a perfect plan to wipe out all the puppet legions and strongholds that the Eye of Destiny lurks in this Holy City of Light. Everything is ready, now all that's left is action. ”

"Isn't that great?" said Mink, "Now that the plan is ready, you should act now, opportunities don't come every day." ”

Guangguang shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Do you think I don't know, but at such a juncture, the Judgment Family appeared." And at this time, there was actually a traitor in your Holy See, although the plan we sat on before was perfect, but who knows if this plan has been leaked out, and even if this traitor destroys it when we carry out the plan, causing our hunting plan to fail, this is a small loss. But if we are counter-hunted because of the mole, then the final result will be serious. ”

Mink was also shocked after listening to the light's explanation.

Yes, I didn't think that there was such a stake. It seems that the matter of this traitor is really imminent, no matter what method is used, you must first find this traitor. Otherwise, the situation in this Holy City of Light will not only become more and more uncontrollable, but may even form a huge vortex, dragging the Holy See of Light and the Exorcist Association into it until the two forces are destroyed.

Mink pondered for a while and said, "In that case, then I should go and meet the Pope as soon as possible." ”

The light also said, "Yes, it must be now." I want to go with you, after all, I am involved in this matter, and I have the most direct right to speak. ”

With that, the light was ready to get up.

But he was stopped by Mink. Seeing Mink's movements, the light looked at him even more puzzled.

"What do you mean? Mink!" Radiance was a little unhappy in his heart, such an important matter, could this Mink still have to engage in the opinion of the door?

Mink shook his head with a wry smile and said, "I said old opponent, can you not be so impatient." You don't want to think about it, if there is a traitor in our Holy See, you are so eager to find the Pope, do you think that the traitor will not notice anything? Now the best thing to do is for you to go back to your Exorcist Association now, and don't startle the snake because of you. Now that I'm back in the Holy See, leave it to me to find out, if you believe me!"

After staring at Mink deeply for half a minute, the light sighed and said, "Mink, I hope I didn't believe the wrong person this time." ”

After saying that, the light got up directly, walked out of the room, and left the Bright Sect directly. Mink looked at the figure of the light leaving, there was some complicated expression in his eyes, sighed deeply, and then turned and walked towards the interior of the Holy See.
