Chapter 24: Ambush
Everyone ran all the way back to the city, and the panting crowd sat on the bluestone road very unimaged. Laura is okay, Faye and Zeno are slightly panting, but the two ordinary people, March and Elliot, are not.
"Lack of exercise."
Laura looked at the two of them without an image, and said helplessly.
The two of them couldn't even say the complaint of "don't think of yourself as an ordinary person", which shows the intense physical exertion.
"Well, the task is almost over, and the instructor won't accompany you. Don't forget, you're going to have to take the bus back this afternoon, don't be late. ”
Lobby and say goodbye to everyone.
On the face of it, he felt that the remaining task of "assisting the Confederate Army" was where he was not needed. Also, I'm going back soon, and I want to do more. After all, it was too far away as an internship location, so I had to take the bus in advance.
And the real thoughts, only You himself knows.
It's called the God of Riders.
What is it? Large Warcraft? Or an ancient humanoid weapon?
Bidding farewell to everyone, Yu took his stealth technique to the extreme, easily hid his breathing, blended in with his surroundings, and quickly rushed towards the ruins.
Some daring scholars had already rushed into the ruins. For the sake of knowledge, you can ignore the danger, this mood, I have to say, is still very great.
You quietly went up to the second floor, looking for yesterday's secret passage, and sneaked into the secret room underground.
It's still a while before noon, and there's never been a better time to ambush here.
You soon came to the hidden swing door.
Listen closely, there is no sound behind the door.
Gently pushing the door open, he stepped inside.
It's no different from yesterday when he left.
If I have to say it, I feel that the big guy in the middle has become more colorful. If it used to be jadeite, now it is simply a green guiding light. That's how stark the gap is.
I could still feel it, like a giant creature, its body shaking with its breath.
Really, no matter how many times you look at it, you will feel majestic.
You shrugged and looked around for a place where he could hide.
I don't know what the Supreme Imperial Power wants to do, but it's always good to destroy the plan of the association.
You thought so easily.
Right now......
Call!
The golden short knife sliced the back of You's neck with great precision, and the sharp blade cut deep into the flesh. With a little effort, the assassin found that he could not cut off his head (after all, he had hard bones and strong muscles), so he immediately turned the blade of the knife, and the sharp blade cut through Yu's throat.
Blood was pouring wildly, and Yu's face was full of stunned and frightened expressions.
As a killer, and now that he is on the first level of alert, he will be successfully attacked by someone!? This unwillingness was clearly expressed in his expression.
Seeing that his prey was dead, the dark assassin appeared, and to prevent the blood from being poisonous, he carefully avoided the blood that flowed out.
Then, carrying a knife, waited beside him. If a human can't breathe, he'll die in about three to five minutes. Even if You Chensi's lung capacity is outstanding, he can't live longer.
He just hid in a safe place coldly, sat and watched You cover his neck, trying to maintain his breathing ugly appearance, and finally watched indifferently as he fell to the ground motionless. As a precaution, he waited another three minutes before approaching him.
This killer's characteristic caution shows that he is a seasoned assassin.
"Yo, it scared me."
Just as the assassin was about to look at his head, You suddenly spoke. The words are round, full of confidence, where is there a little suffocation to death?
At the same time, his lying body quickly climbed up! A cruel hand knife slashed through.
This scene was so unbelievable that the assassin felt a chill in his heart, and quickly flashed, jumped away a considerable distance, and protected the golden one-handed blade in front of him.
I saw that You Chensi, who had just been killed, had already climbed up nonchalantly. The shocking wound on his neck is gradually healing.
Admittedly, you didn't expect to be attacked at all during the first blow.
If the assassin's strength is a little stronger and he is decapitated with one blow, then even if Yu is a monster that has taken Shinchi, it will lose its life reaction before Shinchi can take effect.
However, the assassin was blocked by Yu's bones and muscles, and this time gave You time to react.
He didn't strengthen his skin so that his blade couldn't cut through it, as he didn't do like most people. If they do, the assassin will dive into the shadows again, which will be too difficult to deal with. There is nothing more terrible than a hidden assassin.
So, he didn't do it. He himself was an assassin, and he immediately thought that if it was himself, if he couldn't be decapitated with one blow, he would immediately cut off the other party's throat and make him unable to breathe.
So, he immediately summoned the power of true knowledge so that he could breathe beyond his nose.
The world is so big that there are no surprises. Not all living things breathe through their noses. Frogs and earthworms, for example, rely on their skin to breathe.
The largest organ of the human body is the skin, and if a person can breathe through the skin, he can get more air than he can breathe through the nose.
True knowledge perfectly fulfilled the master's wish, although I don't understand the principle, but, I can really feel it, although the throat is broken, but the air flow can be continuously inhaled from the skin, into the lungs.
So, he did what he planned and waited for the assassin to come and confirm his death.
Without a hidden assassin, the threat is at least half minimized.
You only then had more room to look at the man in front of him.
He was dressed in a black nightcoat, and silver chain mail could be faintly seen through the open placket, with a hood and a half-covered mask, only his mouth and chin were exposed. Holding a golden one-handed knife in his hand, he was protecting him in front of him.
Physically, it is probably a young man in his twenties, and at most no more than twenty-five or sixteen years old.
When did such a good assassin come out of the world?
You racked his brains and didn't expect this person.
Generally speaking, such a strong guy must be a man of the hour in the world.
If the name is unknown...... Then it basically has something to do with mysterious associations.
This person......
"You're a member of the association?"
You pretended to ask casually, the big sword in his hand had been quickly twisted and deformed, turning into a one-handed sword. As he spoke, Yu handed the sword to his left hand. You Tatsumi only knows a swordsman who uses a sword in his left hand.
The assassin was silent for a moment, as if to consider whether he could speak, and after thinking for half a minute, he finally spoke.
"The Serpent of the Body Belongs, Executor NO.XIII, Pitch Black Fang."
His answer was understandable.
After all, it is rare to see such a powerful and unfamous person.
And, the Tooth of Darkness......
This was the code name of the original Joshua.
It appears that after Joshua's departure, the Society elected a new assassination-type executor.
But seriously......
This executor reminded You of a person.
Sword Emperor Levy.
Golden sword.
The will of silver.
You didn't know why he had this idea. Obviously, the assassin in front of him didn't look like Levi at all.
"So, what are you doing here?"
You tried to ask for more information.
The assassin's dark fangs were also refreshing, and this time he didn't even think about it.
"Kill you."
I really asked a stupid question......
You laughed self-deprecatingly.
In that case, there is no need to talk about it.
You don't want to die here.
It's hard to get to this point with Noelle, and it's a shame to die.
On such a serious occasion, but thinking about his girlfriend, does it mean that he has a wide heart, or should he say that he has no ambition?
Seeing that You didn't have the idea of dying obediently, the assassin's pitch-black fang dodged, carried a knife, and attacked head-on. (To be continued.) )
