Chapter 723: The Mage and the Assassin's Secret
Chapter 723: The Secret of the Mage and the Assassin
As the sticks in the hands of the six mages pointed at Fang Xie at the same time, an inexplicable coercion began to appear in the sky above the courtyard. The wind carried the raindrops around in mid-air, and the raindrops began to gather in the air, and a huge dark blue sphere gradually formed in the wind, which quickly expanded to the size of a room.
"The Prison of Sin!"
The mage at the head let out a low roar, then slammed the stick down in his hand.
He's the mage who makes the hurricane appear, and seems to have a higher status than the other mages. It can be seen that this so-called prison of sin is a "spell" completed under his leadership. It can be observed with the naked eye that there is wind and rain knives circling back and forth in that "prison of sin", and it will definitely be uncomfortable if people are wrapped in it.
When the water balloon expands large enough, it begins to fall rapidly under the force of the wind.
The people in the room all looked at Fang Jie, and Shen Tianfan, Sang Sasa and the others couldn't help but make a move. But at this moment, Fang Xie still had time to turn his head and smile at them. The sky was gray and cloudy, but his smile was so bright. So at this moment, all the people in the room relaxed.
If Fang Xie hadn't been in his chest, he wouldn't have shown them such a confident smile.
"Let's see if your sword has any effect on the cultivation method of the mage from across the ocean!"
Fang Xie said a word to Mo Ning, and then his body suddenly disappeared into the courtyard.
Hearing his words, Mo Ningji couldn't help but smile, and then pulled out an ordinary horizontal knife from the scabbard of a riding school beside him, and slashed at the water ball without the slightest pause. In the void, a huge sword shadow ten feet long suddenly appeared, slashing down on the water ball. The sword light was too cold, as if it split the sky in an instant.
With a bang, the water balloon was easily split by the knife, and the condensed water fell like a waterfall, and a huge wave of water stirred out in the courtyard, washing away the corpses of the assassins on the ground.
"But that's it"
Mo Ning Fat smiled faintly, and then casually inserted the horizontal knife back into the scabbard of the Xiao Riding School.
She turned and walked back, sat down on a stool, and looked at the roof with interest. After this knife, she had already tried out the depth of those people, so the other party understood the confident smile better. The spells that looked gorgeous and surging were vulnerable in front of her sword intent.
How could an offensive of this level hurt the solution?
In the next second, Fang Xie had already appeared on the roof of a room, and under the gaze of the mage's round eyes, he smashed his fist into his lower abdomen. The mage immediately let out a cry of pain, and fell to his knees. Fang Xie kicked him off the roof with a casual kick, then turned and swept towards another room.
The other five mages were all terrified, none of them could have imagined that the prison of sin they had completed together would be easily avoided. You must know that on the other side of the ocean, just casting this spell will be praised by everyone as a miracle. No matter how powerful a firearm is, it is impossible to make such a thing. Musket volleys, but not as good as this.
But isn't this the sorrow of the mage?
They once had an unquestionable position on the other side of the ocean, but then, in the eyes of royalty and nobles, what difference did they have from those juggling clowns? The members of the royal family of the Opru Empire can casually bring them who were once noble to perform...... Performance, is that a way to hurt your self-esteem?
This makes them think that they are one of the members of the circus, relying on some unscrupulous means to cheat money.
Seeing that one of his companions was kicked off the roof of the house by the Han man from the Central Plains in an instant, the other five mages invariably made the same action...... Turn around and run. The mage, in particular, who could drive the wind, summoned a whirlwind that wrapped him around him and fell from the roof, and then he wriggled his fat ass, driving the wind to drag his body and start running wildly.
However, he was still too slow.
He hadn't gone far from the roof, he felt the clothes on his back being grabbed, followed by a hot pain coming from his face, and he was actually lifted from behind and slapped hard. If this slap is a lifelong shame, it is actually because he can't understand what this Han man said.
"Legend has it that no matter how powerful a mage is, he also needs a samurai to protect him, because once he is close to him, then the mage is scum."
Fang Xie laughed, and then pinched the mage's veins with a little force, the mage immediately howled and fainted, Fang Xie took the collar of his clothes and threw it behind casually, and the mage flew over the roof and fell into the courtyard with a thud.
Five mages, fleeing in five different directions. Fang Xie grabbed the mage who could drive the wind, and then went after the second one. By the time he caught the last mage, the man hadn't run fifty meters away. It can be seen that the speed of Fang Xie is a nightmare for them.
Throwing the last captured mage to the ground, Fang Xie kicked it and flew out on the ground.
"Pretending...... Fucking almost scared me! ”
……
……
"How can you tell they're weak? Where did these people come from? ”
Because he didn't perceive any cultivation power on these so-called mages, Mu Xiaoxiao wasn't sure whether these people were strong or weak, until Fang Xie brought them back one by one, and Mu Xiaoxiao was sure that he had overestimated these people.
"They should be called mages, it's their own name."
Fang Xie sat down in his chair and looked at the six mages who had fainted in front of him, as well as the leader of the assassins who had been beaten and almost lost half his life. Speaking of which, the cultivation of this assassin leader is still not low, at least there is an eight-rank cultivation, but what you must know is that the current cultivators of the eight-rank cultivation can be described in four words...... Get away with murder.
These assassins did not rely on extreme skills, and their assassination methods were similar in nature to those civilian killers that the Ouchi Guard once raised. These Assassins relied on camouflage to blend into the environment with their elaborate clothes. In fact, they were only able to blend in because their clothes had been disguised with a high degree of painting.
When they approached the courtyard, Mu Xiaoxiao had already noticed it. It's just that these people's cultivation is too weak, so weak that even she thinks it's a little ridiculous. So even if Fang Xie didn't see the rain bouncing off them, they still couldn't hide it. When Fang Xie stood at the door and looked outside, Mu Xiaoxiao had already reminded him that someone had entered the town. Fang Xie was just curious about how a group of people with low cultivation levels could hide from those Xiao Riding Schools outside the town.
The civilian assassins of the Ouchi Guard can be said to be very similar to these assassins in their killing methods. Civilian killers are really just ordinary people, so they don't have a bit of a cultivator's aura on them. The assassins, even if they walked face to face with the civilian killers, could not detect any murderous aura in them. It's also a disguise, and it seems to be slightly more clever than camouflage with clothes.
"From across the ocean."
Fang Xie pointed to a short gun worn by a riding school: "It's the country that made this thing, I once heard Andrew say that there is a very special group of people in his country, called mages, who can use abilities beyond the scope of human cognition. He said that the most powerful mages even possessed the ability to destroy a town. It was because of Andrew's words that I thought at first that these people would not come out of the house when they were mages. ”
"I don't know about these mages, I don't know if they really have the power that Andrew said. But later, I realized that it didn't matter if they were capable of themselves. They are not cultivators and do not need any special constitution. ”
Mu Xiaoxiao nodded: "I didn't notice the fluctuation of the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi when they attacked, so I was very curious just now, what method these people used." ”
"How?"
Fang Xie smiled, picked up one of the six sticks he brought back at random and handed it to Mu Xiaoxiao: "They are all ordinary people, and the reason why they have a high status on the other side of the ocean may be just because they are lucky enough...... Don't touch the stone on the stick, it's something from outside the sky, I call it a meteorite. The ability of these people actually comes from this stone. ”
"Meteorite?"
Sang Sassa thought for a while and asked, "Are you talking about a meteor that fell from the sky?" ”
"Hmm"
Fang Xie nodded: "The reason why they have abilities that look pretty good is actually because of these stones, which have something special on them that can change the environment. These mages themselves have nothing to praise, they just rely on this thing. Andrew mages are very rare in their hometown, in fact, they are not mages rare, but meteorites with the ability to change the environment are rare. ”
"At the earliest, it may be that someone discovered the specialness of the meteorite, so he used this stone to deceive, and finally achieved a kind of professional ...... that was feared."
Fang explained: "But relying on these meteorites, it's okay to bluff people, it's really useless to fight." You can also abuse the six of them casually, and if you think about them, they won't even be able to let out a fart. ”
Mu Xiaoxiao glanced at him, but his smile was like a flower.
"I'm not interested in this stone in the hands of these people, but why they came to the Central Plains. If I'm not mistaken, those assassins should not be from Nanyan, but from Eastern Chu. I once heard San Jin Hou mention that the Emperor of Eastern Chu had a special assassination team under him, which was very mysterious and bizarre, and it was the emperor's secret army to secretly eradicate dissidents. Moreover, the patterns and dyes painted on this dress also look like foreigners' things. Dong Chu and foreigners got together to help Nanyan do things...... It's unusual! ”
Fang Xie looked at the people lying on the ground, although he was smiling, his brows were furrowed deeply.
"Send someone back to the back of the brigade, and ask Sanjin Hou to come as soon as possible with his subordinates who understand foreign language. I always feel that there is something big behind these foreigners appearing in the Central Plains......"
It's not that Fang Xie doesn't ask, but because the foreign language he understands is fundamentally different from what these people speak.
A hundred households of a riding school responded and immediately arranged for someone to rush back. It has only been five days since I left Yongzhou, and it won't take long to meet the big team of people.
Fang Xie kicked the assassin leader who was lying on the ground with his toes: "What I just said is right, right? Are you from Dongchu? ”
The Assassin leader's injuries weren't enough to kill him, but they were enough to make him miserable, so his face was ugly, and it was clear that the blow from the previous solution had made him a little unbearable.
But he stubbornly didn't speak, but his eyes were still staring at Fang Xie fiercely.
Fang Xie smiled, as if he felt that this kind of hatred and threat in his eyes was a little ridiculous, he leaned over to close the distance between him and the assassin leader, looked into his eyes and said, "Don't look at me with this kind of look, this kind of look can only be used by the righteous who hate and contempt the enemy, but you are not the righteous one, and neither am I." ”
"You and I are both soldiers, and I understand the character of a soldier. So...... I'll only ask you once, and if you don't answer, I'll fulfill your integrity. ”
Fang Xie pointed to the corpses in the courtyard that had been torn off their robes and revealed their figures: "Just like the people under you......"
The corners of the Assassin Leader's mouth twitched involuntarily a few times, but he still didn't speak. Perhaps he firmly believed that he would never kill him without asking what was valuable.
"Kill him"
Just when he thought of this, he heard Fang Xie say in a flat tone: "Then take off all the clothes on these people's bodies, and keep them to be useful." There is no point in finding something on them that represents their identity, and the corpse is meaningless. ”
"Whoa!"
A few riding schools around him immediately came over, and dragged the assassin leader out.
At this moment, the leader of the assassins realized that he had met a person who did not follow common sense and reason. But such a person is undoubtedly terrifying.
