Chapter 204, Conspiracy Raid
"Boom~!!"
The sheriff suddenly blew himself up, and although there was no effective killing in the midst of the flesh and blood, the impact still wanted to push Lanton back a few steps.
And the black cloak mage seized the opportunity and teamed up to unleash the raging flames.
"Boom Boom Boom ~ !!"
The top floor of the city administration building was blown up, and the powerful impact pushed Langton and Caterina out of the building and onto the street where the crowd had evacuated, and the people in the surrounding shops and hotels were watching.
"Rumble Rumble ~ !!"
At this moment, the thunderous sound of horses' hooves was heard outside the city
The barbarian cavalry is coming!
The city of Khorst was not attacked by barbarians and the Bourbon kingdoms, and the inhabitants of the city immediately judged from the sound of horses' hooves what was happening, and those who were watching immediately closed their shops, and the hotel guards also closed their gates.
Guests of hotels and shops returned to the deserted streets and rushed to their homes.
The police officers who had evacuated the crowd on the street ran back and did their best to guide the chaotic crowd out and stop the chaos from happening.
Exiting the building by the blast and falling from the top floor, Langton got up and was fine.
Caterina pulled up to the side and asked, "Are you okay?"
Caterina shook her head.
Just as he was about to return to the city administration building to deal with the black cloak mages who attacked him, there was another wave of magic on the top floor of the building, and I saw a pitch-black dark cloud spin and appear, and the mages quickly flew up and disappeared with the black cloud.
"What kind of spell is this?"
Langton and Caterina returned to the city building, where the black cloak spell was gone, the corpses in the suits were torn apart, and the ruined conference room was covered in a layer of disgusting flesh.
"Are those the mages of the Kingdom of Bourbon?"
Katerina: "Don't ask me, I don't know. ”
"Rumble ~ !!"
"Boom Boom ~ !!"
The muffled thunder of the cavalry running outside the city got closer and closer, and then the artillery roared, causing explosions that resounded throughout the Host.
The war came suddenly.
On the top floor of the city administration building, catching the fire caused by the explosion of the cannonball, Langton could see the tens of thousands of barbarian cavalry charging outside the city without fear of death.
"Boom Boom ~ !!"
The artillery roared, and Horst's defenders were not afraid of the menacing barbarian cavalry.
Cannonballs keep everyone in the city safe.
After a while, Langton saw that the charging barbarian cavalry had suffered heavy casualties, and then turned in two parts, as if to divide his forces and retreat.
"Boom Boom ~ !!"
The defenders' artillery did not fire, but suddenly a series of explosions rang out.
It's a magic attack!
The ferocious barbarian cavalry, in the face of modern weapons, even if there are extraordinary warriors and shamans, is no longer the power that once looted the western realm and the snowy regions and invaded the northlands, and retreated in embarrassment before the melee encounter.
The crisis of the barbarian attack seems to have passed like this.
But Langton felt something was wrong.
The barbarians gathered tens of thousands of cavalry, and it was impossible to leave at once, and the city administration building was attacked, why did the police only evacuate the crowd on the street and not come up to check the situation?
And the sheriff, the next second he pulled out his gun to kill, he was controlled......
It's also too useless.
"Dada~!!"
"Bang Bang Bang ~ !!"
The sound of horses' hooves outside the city began to be mixed with the sound of gunfire, but it quickly subsided.
The sound of horses' hooves is getting farther and farther away.
Just when Lanton thought the battle was over, the defense line of Horst City was attacked by a group of extraordinary assassins, and all the soldiers defending the city were killed!
And in Khost, no one knows about this......
Standing on the city administration building for a while, Langton did not wait for any officials in the city to come, and the police officers who had evacuated the crowd did not return, and everyone seemed to have forgotten that there was an explosion here in the city administration building.
No one noticed that the sheriff of the Fifth District was nowhere to be seen, and no one asked where the mayor was.
This is the case......
There's definitely something wrong in town!
"Katarina, let's get out of here. ”
Taking Caterina with him, Langton went downstairs and returned to the hotel across the street, but unexpectedly, a faint smell of blood wafted from the hotel with the door closed!
There's a dead man inside!
"Bang~"
Without saying a word, Langton kicked in the door.
Finding that the guard in charge of guarding the door had been stabbed in the throat, they had only gone out for a while, and the guests and employees had already died in the quiet hotel.
"It's a silent barrier. ”
Kicking open the door, he immediately sensed that the hotel had been set up with magic.
Breaking this magical barrier, screams of terror, screams of injury, and wails of terror were immediately heard from the fifth floor of the hotel.
The murderous guys in the hotel continue!
Picking up the guard's sword, Langton immediately rushed to the fifth floor of the hotel, and before the silver-tier assassin could see what was going on with the sudden appearance of the black shadow, he felt a sense of weightlessness, and felt that the world was spinning, and he saw a headless corpse holding a dagger.
Ah, that's like your own body......
"What's going on?"
Picking up the middle-aged man who was being chased by the assassins, Langton asked in a deep voice, "Why did this assassin attack you?"
The middle-aged man who survived the assassin's dagger was shocked, and only shook his head in a daze when he heard the words.
"I... I... I don't know..."
"He, suddenly, killed someone..."
There were many guests in the hotel, but a silver-level assassin killed almost all of them, even if the hotel's guards and some guests were extraordinary, their strength was only black iron and bronze, and they had no power to resist when they joined forces.
They were mercilessly slaughtered.
"It should be an assassin sent by the Kingdom of Bourbon. Caterina said.
"Assassin?" The middle-aged man finally came back to his senses, and when he heard this, his emotions became very excited, and he said loudly: "It must be an assassin from an enemy country!"
"It must be the enemy country that has attacked!"
"Poof~"
As soon as the excited middle-aged man finished speaking, he opened his mouth and spurted blood, trembling all over, and fell to the ground weakly.
"Poisoned?"
Langton also ate food made at the hotel, but no toxins were found.
But when he thought about it, he remembered that the food on the table was specially paid for the chef's freshly cooked food, and it was different from the food that other people ate.
It seems that the attack on the city administration building, the massacre of the Assassins at the hotel, and the attack of the barbarian cavalry at the same time must not be a coincidence, but a deliberate conspiracy, and the purpose is already clear.
However, the mayor may be the dried corpse that has been drained of all his life force.
The mayor died.
The city administration building is now empty.
Knowing the conspiracy, Langton didn't know who to turn to.
So......
I can only ask the villains to come and ask about the situation.
With a wave of his hand.
The unstable portal reappeared, and on the other side was the conference room of Port Stuart Castle.
But Profeon was not there.
In fact, Langton can be summoned directly, but the real bodies of the villains are not in the main world, but in the alien plane outside the world.
It's easy to summon people back, but it's troublesome for them to get out.
However, Langton also mastered the clone technique, and with space spells, it can be ubiquitous, and the clone stepped through the unstable portal in one step, and returned to the castle in Stuart Harbor, and then left the conference room to find Profion and the others.
"You're standing here right now waiting for news of the clone?"
Caterina asked.
"Of course not. Langton muttered, "I'll have to get up and find the other officials in the city." ”
"Waiting is not my style. ”
Leaving the hotel and returning to the street, the city was also silent, it seemed that the residents were aware of the anomaly and hiding, the whole city seemed to be arranged with a silent barrier, and the electric lights on the street were dim and deep every fifty meters.
There was not a single person in the empty streets.
Footsteps echoed, and Ranton tried to find a few people to ask for the location of the city officials, but none of the residents answered, and he couldn't find the police officer.
"Katarina, do you have a way to find the big names in this city?"
Katerina: "What do you think?"
"No, you can't. Langton scratched his head in frustration and muttered, "Since we can't find the officials in the city, nor can we find the sheriff and police officers, how about we go to the most important place in the city?"
Caterina was still expressionless, ignoring Lanton.
"Alright, let's go to the Primary Magic Academy in Khorst City!"
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Langton asked himself and answered.
Wandering around the city before, he had been to the elementary magic academy in the city, and knowing the location, he dragged Caterina and ran wildly, and he didn't run to his destination in a while.
However.
The Academy of Magic was as deep and quiet as the rest of the city, and it seemed that there was not a single student in it.
And the magic protection perceived during the day.
It's gone!
"Someone attacked here. Caterina said.
Langton: "A prepared mage can deal with all dangers, although he is still an apprentice, but when war breaks out, the magic students of the primary academy can immediately become a decisive force. ”
"If I'm going to attack Horst, I'm going to attack the Academy of Magic. ”
"I thought about it too late. ”
"I hope the students here aren't ...... by the assassins"
Quickly entering the academy, Langton wanted to release his spiritual power to find people, but because of his own abnormality, his spiritual power was polluted and influenced by external gods and old rulers, and he was afraid that he would also be crazy if he used his mental power to find people.
So, I used my sense of hearing to look for movement in the academy.
"Bang~"
At night, it is impossible for the students of the Academy of Magic to still be in the teaching building, after all, it is a different world, electricity and electric lights cannot support the appearance of evening repairs, and the students living in closed schools will only be in the dormitory except for the canteen.
Sensing the sound with his keen hearing, Langton rushed over and rushed into the student apartment with corpses on the ground with a gun.
Running to the third floor, he finally found the silver-tier assassin who was abusing vegetables.
The man in the apartment is an apprentice of magic, after all.
A fool can't be a mage, and even if you're lucky enough to become a spellcaster, if you don't have enough knowledge and a flexible brain, you're not destined to be outstanding.
Even if the strength is insufficient.
In the face of death, many magic apprentices have burst out of their potential, united to release magic attacks and protection, and used all the means they can think of to survive, plus the mage teachers in the academy, they can finally block the attacking assassins.
It's just that there is a gap in rank.
Even if there are not many assassins attacking, they are all silver and bronze level transcendents, and there are many black iron level magic apprentices.
It was barely able to block a few fatal attacks.
And then they retreated.
But when the gunshots rang out, only a few silver-tier assassins fell, and the teachers and students of the Academy of Magic suddenly saw hope of survival.
"Don't be afraid, everyone, rescue from the city is coming!"
