Chapter 10: Unknown Forces

The female assassin is almost dying, but she can't die yet, at least Su Xiao won't let him die, a hidden quest related to the main quest has not been triggered yet, especially since this is still a bonus quest.

"Don't let her die."

As soon as Duke Li Lin finished speaking, the soldiers stepped forward, one stepped on the female assassin's head, and the others dealt with her in an emergency.

"We're being targeted."

Lady Moon Wolf sat very leisurely and sipped the black tea in her cup.

"The first target of the assassination was the old guy, but he dodged it last night."

Duke Li Lin glanced at Su Xiao while saying this.

"Since the second target is the Angry Lion, the third target is likely to be the Duke of the White Dragon."

Su Xiao checked the female assassin's injuries and couldn't die in a short time.

"Impossible," Lady Moon Wolf vetoed, and after a moment of silence, she said, "No one will go to his manor to assassinate him, that can't be successful." ”

"Then the third target is you."

“……”

Lady Moon Wolf frowned and stared at Su Xiao after a moment.

"Well, it's probably me."

Lady Moon Wolf was laughing, but she was laughing chillingly.

Obviously, there are all smart people present, and there is a group of forces that are assassinating the duke, and they have already succeeded once at this time, and the old duke knew this before last night, so he withdrew the guards in the manor, this move made the assassin directly lose the opportunity.

Perhaps frightened by the assassins, they chose to strike this morning, targeting Duke Gilbert, the Duke of the Angry Lion, who was in charge of the military, and the result was successful.

Not only that, but this group of assassins did not leave the winery, but waited for the opportunity to assassinate other dukes who might appear, for these two assassins, to get rid of the Duke of the Angry Lion, is the meaning of their life, to be able to kill another duke, even if it is death, it is to die for honor.

The situation in the city of Arans is becoming more and more complicated, the high-ranking dukes are dead, and it is far from assassinating the Holy King, will it be far?

Obviously, the actions of these people are in direct conflict with Su Xiao's mission, God knows what form this group of people will use to assassinate the Holy Descent King, in case they use high-powered explosives to blow up the Holy Descent King's heart, Su Xiao's mission will fail.

After being promoted to the sixth order, Su Xiao was no longer able to completely exempt himself from compulsory execution, he had obtained a privilege at the lower level, exempting the forced execution penalty of a mission failure, which was limited to the forced execution caused by the failure of the mission, but that authority only had an 'absolute permission' effect at the 1st~5th level.

This 'talisman' made Su Xiao feel at ease for a long time, but after being promoted to the sixth rank, this talisman was no longer so easy to use, although it could be exempted from a forced execution, it would also deduct 50% of his full attributes, which was tragic.

Once the bones of the Holy Descent King are gone, Su Xiao will lose 50% of his full attributes, and what's more, he will let Xi grow.

What should I do if I encounter a conflict during a mission? Negotiate with the unknown? No kidding, it's stupid to put your own safety in the hands of an unknown force.

Since it was in conflict with the mission, Su Xiao decided to pull out that force, raze them all, and then find an opportunity to kill the Holy Descent King.

In other words, this is a godsend, if that group of unknown forces is eradicated, several dukes, and even the Saint King, will appropriately relax their vigilance against Su Xiao, and at that time, it will be an opportunity.

Thinking of this, Su Xiao's thoughts were completely clear.

"I'll take this person."

As Su Xiao spoke, he motioned for Eminem to carry the female assassin.

"Yes."

"Nope."

Li Lin and Lady Moon Wolf had diametrically opposite attitudes, and after seeing Su Xiao's ability, Li Lin agreed to Su Xiao to take over this matter.

"Reason."

Su Xiao and Duke Li Lin both looked at Lady Moon Wolf.

"Li Lin, what are you thinking, he is the old guy's subordinate, you forgot what the old guy did, even if Li Lin you forget, I won't forget."

Lady Moon Wolf's words silenced Duke Li Lin for a moment.

"Vote for that."

The Duke of Lêlín proposed a relatively 'fair' approach.

"Yes."

Bang!

Mrs. Moon Wolf smashed the black teacup in her hand on the table, very angry, but still to maintain elegance, she got up to leave, and when she left, she glared at Su Xiao, and that look was not angry, but a little seductive.

"I'll leave it to you."

Leaving these words, Duke Li Lin also walked outside the castle, he had already decided that in the near future, he could be as far away from Su Xiao as he could, he couldn't die yet, there were many people who needed him, and this empire that was about to completely decay also needed him to maintain, before the election of a successor, he couldn't die, even if there was only one head left, he had to maintain the country, which was the glory of his family.

"Both... Ran away? ”

Baha sighed, and in his senses, the two dukes just ran away.

"Who knows."

Su Xiao breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, among the five dukes, there was no one at the level of the old lion or Harold, as for the Holy Descent King, he couldn't figure it out for the time being, or he didn't have a chance to test it at all, the Holy Descent King was always sleeping, which was a bit incomprehensible.

The soldiers in the castle stand straight, the gunpowder technology of this world is in the ascendant, and most of the gunpowder firearms are fancy, so the soldiers use cold weapons.

Su Xiao rubbed his eyebrows lightly, and after walking around the winery for a few laps, he also left, originally he still wanted to try his luck to see if anyone would jump out and assassinate him, but unfortunately, luck was poor, no one assassinated him.

At the same time, five kilometers east of the winery, a group of men and women in black robes are gathering here, and four of them have a particularly unique atmosphere, they are all contractors, contractors of Deathland.

"That's special, it's too thoroughly arranged! The ghost was caught like this? Didn't you say that she was one of the top five assassins in your organization for stealth ability? That's it? Top five?! ”

The loud-voiced contractor was a little broken, and like his heart, he couldn't calm down for a long time.

"This guy is...... Contractor? ”

The female voice came, and the strange thing is that the conversation between these four people does not shy away from the people in this world at all, in fact, they have turned on the 'negotiation protection mechanism', blocking part of the conversation, in case the punishment mechanism is triggered, even if some death gold coins are deducted, it is a loss.

"Have you ever seen a contractor who can climb to the rank of duke?"

"Uh~ That's right."

"What happens after that?"

"Of course, we must get rid of him first, if we don't get rid of this kind of person in power, we will be found out one by one sooner or later."

After a brief discussion, the dozen or so men decided to plot first and then assassinate the Duke named Kukulin.

……

In the city of Alans, in a two-story house, this is the property of the old duke, in addition to the two floors on the surface, there is also a floor underground.

In the Yang Hall on the second floor of the house, Su Xiao was sitting at the dining table, and the female assassin was sitting opposite Su Xiao, and the word bewilderment seemed to be written on her face.

The female assassin is called Ghost, and since she was a child, she has been trained with only one purpose, to assassinate Duke Gilbert of the Lion, which is her life's mission, and after completing this, she will die without regrets.

In the ghost's opinion, she will be treated inhumanely if she is captured, but she is not afraid, because she is ready, and when she dies, she will return to the arms of the gods, and the statue will always stand in Valhalla.

Then, unfazed, the enemy used a drug to control some of her movements, and then loosened the chains on her, allowing her to move freely, and even provided her with exquisite food.

"Girl, don't worry, we're not bad people, you see, I'll give you something to eat."

Bach's bird had as much smile on his face as he could.
