Luo Lan's voice sounded clearly on the terrace, with the endless night sky behind him and the starry sky on his side.

In this case, these words are intended to be a reverent recitation of the gods, as if the gods are conveying their intentions to the world through his mouth.

Daphne's gaze also turned, and the eyes of the two met in the air.

Luo Lan couldn't find a single fluctuation in his eyes that were so clear that there was not a trace of impurity, and Daphne couldn't see the true intention behind his calm gaze.

Luo Lan pondered secretly, and after a few words of dialogue, it seemed that the distance between the two had not narrowed much.

How can we get closer?

At this moment, Luo Lan's eyes flashed, and he suddenly pounced on Daphne, grabbed the latter's waist, and then pressed heavily to the ground.

Even at this moment, in the process of pouring, Daphne's face was quiet and peaceful, without the slightest fluctuation, but Luo Lan saw a flash of anger behind her beautiful eyes.

Luo Lan's lips moved, and his expression was serious.

Devany was slightly surprised, as if she sighed lightly, and let Luo Lan press her down tightly, and for a while, the two of them were intimately close together, but there was no tenderness in their eyes, but vigilance and calmness.

"Take!"

A sharp arrow was nailed to the balcony wall, the body of the arrow was halfway in, and the feathers of the arrow were still trembling, showing its amazing penetrating power.

Luo Lan's lips were two words: Assassin!

At this time, the lights in the hall were extinguished one after another in a very short time, and a panic and angry sound came from inside, which was mixed with messy footsteps, the sound of tables and chairs crushing and cups broken, and the screams of women were also mixed together, and for a while, the scene was extremely chaotic.

Men in black leapt down from the top of the hall, and by the dim moonlight, they could be seen hanging from the top of the ropes, standing on the open circular window, pouring slaughter and death into it with delicate short bows.

There were fluctuations of elemental and fighting qi in the hall, and it was obvious that some people with martial arts skills began to fight back, but those men in black only shot an arrow and tumbled into the hall through the window hole, and then screams began to sound one after another.

Luo Lan sighed secretly, there were a large number of people in the hall, although those knights who came to the banquet had high power, but because they couldn't see the environment clearly, that kind of powerful fighting spirit did not dare to use it at will for fear of accidentally injuring others, and they did not wear well-protected armor on their bodies, but instead pointed out their position to the assassin, became the first object to be taken care of, and reported to the God of Light in advance.

The night was dark, the sound of death was constantly playing in the hall, and under her was a moving female body that was ecstasy, which made Luo Lan feel extremely excited.

But he didn't linger for long, but immediately turned over, glanced back at Daphne, and whispered, "Don't move!" Then he called outside, and ran towards the hall, where several dark shadows were immediately attracted to him and followed closely.

At this time, the guards outside the hall were coming, and the most correct choice for a class that was not good at melee combat was to find a safe place to hide there, and not to make any moves, only in this way could it avoid being found by those assassins in the first place.

And Luo Lan's move is undoubtedly a suicidal act, but on the other hand, it is clearly a sacrifice he made to protect Daphne.

Daphne looked at his back, and her beautiful eyes showed an extremely complicated expression for a moment, not knowing what she was thinking.

As soon as he entered the darkness, Luo Lan felt like a fish in water.

It was as if the world had been made for him, and he almost wanted to shout praises to the gods for giving him such a wonderful opportunity to leave a mark on Daphne's heart, both deep and shallow.

There were constant figures shuttling in and out of the darkness, screaming, and there were already several dead bodies piled up in front of the door leading to the outside of the hall, and it was impossible to distinguish between friend and foe.

No, there must have been some sign that could identify each other, otherwise how could the Assassins be able to distinguish their companions?

Several black-clothed men who followed Luo Lan into the hall instantly lost their tracks, they glanced at each other and dived into the darkness together.

Luo Lan flashed to the side, held his breath, squinted his eyes and observed on these people, their martial arts skills were mediocre, but they were agile, and they were very organized in advance and retreat, obviously a team that had been cooperating for a long time.

He noticed a faint glow of light on their chests.

It was a badge.

If it weren't for Luo Lan's trained eyes, there would be no way to distinguish them.

That's it!

Luo Lan fell to the ground, he picked up a few fragments of cups and bottles, threw them at the face of a man in black who was groping around, and then kicked his feet and rolled forward on the spot, the dagger in his hand rushed forward like a poisonous snake.

When a man in black just felt that something was wrong and nimbly dodged away from the flying unknown object, the next moment, his abdomen was pierced by a sharp dagger, and then the emblem on his chest was taken away.

His companions had indeed begun to recognize the wrong people.

After Luo Lan took the emblem with him, he approached many black-clothed people smoothly in a row, killed seven or eight people with great pleasure, and then neatly took off the emblem on their bodies, and handed it to those who were lying next to him in the dark and did not dare to squeak.

In order not to reveal his identity, Luo Lan deliberately did not stab the other party's throat or heart, but instead aimed at those places that would not be immediately fatal, and those men in black who did not die on the ground wailed non-stop, and the scene became even more chaotic.

Luo Lan secretly said that when the guards came in, those who escaped should be extremely grateful to themselves, right? It would be even more perfect if they thanked them in front of Daphne.

The darkness did not last long, with a sound of neat footsteps through the hall, one by one the torches began to re-light everything around them, more than a dozen indifferent swordsmen with sharp blades rushed in, their eyes did not look, aimed at those people in black, whether they were walking or falling to the ground, they were all a sword, their killing methods were extremely professional, Luo Lan did not see them hand out the second sword at a person.

It's just that the next more surprising scene appeared, those swordsmen did not just kill the people in black, but also attacked those who wore badges, and several old men who were not threatening at all also died tragically under their swords, including those who Luo Lan sent the badge.

Luo Lan suddenly realized that these people had a clear goal.

He reacted quickly, he immediately took off the badge on his body and put it back on the body of a dead corpse, he also looked around carefully, and found that there were many uninjured people wearing the same emblem on their chests as the one on the man in black, but it did not emit fluorescence, and at this moment they looked at these swordsmen with fear on their heads, but they did not escape the call of death.

After a few moments, the killing finally stopped.

Footsteps rang out.

A handsome paladin dressed noblely stepped into the hall, his head held high, the Templar emblem on his chest glittered in the lamplight, the round copper buckle tightly pulled the crimson cloak of the half-shawl head into a few folds, and under the silk streamers wrapped around his waist was a cross-sword inlaid with various magic crystals, and on the jaw of the finely carved sword was a hideous beast, the armadillo-like scaly armor had a circle of gorgeous layers used to turn at the joints, and the whole set of vintage armor was as bright as a mirror, and the momentum was striking.

As he walked into the hall, his sharp gaze first circled the hall, giving everyone the illusion that they were having trouble breathing, but when his gaze fell on the face of Daphne, who had calmly walked into the hall from outside the terrace and was beginning to heal the wounded, it became extremely gentle.

Devany also raised her head slightly, and smiled at the paladin, with a special joy in her beautiful eyes.

Luo Lan suddenly secretly exclaimed in his heart.

Who is this man?

"Ladies and gentlemen. The paladin said in a deep voice, "I deeply regret that I have been too late to come and cause you to be frightened and suffer the loss of your loved ones. He bowed slightly, as if he was infinitely painful, in sharp contrast to the arrogant momentum just now, and some of the frightened people hurriedly returned the salute.

At this moment, a nobleman suddenly shouted: "This is the tattoo of the Thieves' Guild! It's them, they're the murderers!"

Luo Lan was also pretending to treat the injured at this time, and frowned when he heard this, as a thief, he had never heard of any tattoos in the Thieves Guild, wouldn't this be self-defeating?

The paladin snorted coldly and said, "It's not surprising that these despicable and shameless thieves can kill their own relatives as long as they pay a reasonable price. He glanced around at the audience, "Tell me, everyone, who would have such a great hatred for you?"

"Modoism. A slightly trembling voice came, and everyone turned their heads to look at it together.

Belier was standing there, her eyes were confused, her shoulders were already dripping with blood, and Momoun, who had just obtained the position of Grand Shepherd, had colored arms, but her eyes were flashing, and she looked absent-minded.

Belier opened her mouth again, wanting to say something but didn't say anything, and the woman in blue beside her immediately stepped forward to take her place, and continued, "Everyone, it is obvious that this is a plot of the Modo Sect......"

Seeing this, Luo Lan's heart suddenly understood, and he didn't have time to listen to the rest of the words.

Where is the banquet today, it is clearly a plan laid out by someone in advance!

Perhaps even Belle herself could not have imagined that she was out hunting, attacked, her uncle's rebellion, until she regained her sovereignty, and this series of events was probably pushed by an invisible black hand.

The purpose is to create conflicts within the territory, and then intervene in it, so as to control Belier to seize the right to the territory.

I believe that those who fell to the ground tonight were either from Uncle Belle's faction, or nobles who opposed the Modos waging war!

Today's farce not only eradicated all these people and paved the way for the forces of the Illuminati to enter the country, but also caused such a great tragedy that it was enough to cause an uproar in the entire kingdom of Sedaon. As a result, feelings of common hatred and hatred arose and further hostility towards the Mordo religion.

The most crucial step is that the one who saved everyone was a paladin of the Illuminati, which also fully informed the world who was their true guardian!

It is believed that combined with the momentum of the rhetoric, it is enough to push the prestige of the Illuminati in this region to a higher level.

The Holy See has taken great pains to fight this war.

But at this moment, this person who laid out all the tricks made Luo Lan have a deep sense of awe and threat.

Who is this man? Could it be the paladin in front of him?

His eyes narrowed.
