Chapter 39: The Assassins
Although it was a bit of a blur, Linton still knew who the other party was, and this must be those assassins. Linton and Garseen went out so swaggering before, and they were definitely targeted. But why wasn't he assassinated immediately, after all, it was still very difficult to find someone in the woods, but there was such a big movement yesterday, and everyone would come over to see what was going on, and it was estimated that they found themselves like this.
Of course, Linton wanted to know who had sent them with the determination to assassinate them. At this time, Rena and Princess Arran had naturally picked up their weapons and stood beside Linton, and Garsein's side also staggered to his feet, only Barry was still unconscious, and there was no reaction.
These people Linton is naturally not afraid, the important thing is the princess next to him, what Linton wants here is to drag the princess into the water so that he can investigate the origin of these people. It was clear that the princess didn't know who the gang was targeting, and the gang probably didn't know that the person next to him was the princess.
"How can there be assassins?" Rena asked.
"Then it depends on who the princess is provoking." Linton said, "It's really hard to talk about the royal business, so I said it's dangerous for you to run out so recklessly." ”
"......" Princess Arlan didn't speak, but it was clear that she also felt that the gang was aimed at her. Taking a step forward, Princess Yalan shouted to the man in black in front of her, "Who sent you?" ”
Naturally, these killers would not pay attention to Princess Arran, but her words were like a signal of attack, and at the moment when Princess Aran spoke, these killers rushed directly towards Linton. It wasn't just a few people in front of them, there was a noise in the surrounding woods, and a few figures ran out from the side, it was obvious that they were already surrounding Linton and a few people before.
"Laclayde above the stars, unlock the seal of the ring lock......" Princess Arran here didn't talk nonsense, she directly raised her wand and began to chant, and the electric light on her body began to flash.
At this time, the assassin on the opposite side was obviously stunned, they were tracking Linton and Garsein, what happened to this female magician who suddenly appeared, it seems that she is still a very powerful lightning mage, which is very difficult. Despite this, they did not stop moving, and continued to kill several people.
Linton didn't pay attention to the few people who rushed up for the time being, although they all had a fighting spirit shining on them, but just by looking at the momentum, he knew that these people were not particularly powerful masters, and what he really paid attention to was the person standing behind them. Yes, the other black-clad assassins had come up, but there was still one man in the same place, and although Linton couldn't see his face clearly, it was clear that this man was the one who took the lead among them.
This person's strength should not be weak, the reason is very simple, Linton has already made a move before, and he has been misunderstood as a star mage, so he should be a very high-level mage. In this case, the person who came to assassinate him again could definitely not be someone who couldn't deal with a star mage, otherwise why not? Come and give someone a head? And Linton could probably guess that the person who stayed where he was was the one who the other party was going to deal with him.
With a "bang", a huge thunderbolt suddenly flew out of the jungle and hit several people who rushed up. Linton turned his head to look at Princess Arlan in a little surprise, the other party's magic was quite powerful. On the other side, Rena also exchanged hands with the people who appeared next to her, and she protected Gassein and Barry in front of her, and although Garseen wanted to help, it seemed that he was powerless, and he couldn't even hold a sword.
"Tu Dun. Earth Dragon Bullet! Linton hurriedly went up to help, the other party was a large number of swordsmen and all of them were swordsmen who could use fighting spirit, it was difficult for Rena and Yalan to withstand it alone.
With a wave of his hand, an earth dragon emerged from the ground beside Linton and rushed forward. After engulfing the two Assassins who rushed up, he slammed into the Assassin captain behind him, who had not come.
Linton had been staring at this guy, wanting to see how the other party responded. The earth dragon bullet quickly rushed in front of the Assassin Leader, and just as he was about to hit the opponent, the Assassin Leader on this side suddenly pulled out a staff from under his robes.
"Ice freezes." Suddenly, there was a flash of blue light, and I felt the temperature around me suddenly drop. Even Linton could feel it here, and even more so on the Assassin Leader's side. Ice flakes had begun to spread around the other party standing, and the most important thing was that the earth dragon that Linton had beaten out was actually frozen in place, and the whole thing was frozen.
"Star mage?" Seeing this, Princess Yalan shouted in surprise.
"Star mage?" Linton looked at the black-clothed assassin leader opposite, it really didn't seem to have seen the other party chanting before, did it turn out to be a genuine star mage? It seems to make sense to think about it, knowing that he is a star mage, the other party's solution is to also send a star mage, it is estimated that he feels that he is young, and it will not take too long to reach this level, and it will be no problem to find someone who is more powerful than himself.
Of course, Princess Yalan next to her thinks that this is an assassin against her, a star mage is not an ordinary mage, and it is not something that ordinary forces can do if they can invite someone of this level to be an assassin. The first thing that came to Princess Yalan's mind was the royal family, could it really be her brothers and sisters?
For a while, she couldn't imagine who hated her so much and actually sent such an assassination lineup. Thinking of this, she also looked at Linton beside her, if Linton wasn't here now, she and Rena would not be able to defeat this star mage at all.
"Did you get your magic back?" Princess Arran asked.
Linton looked at his mana, he hadn't calculated his mana recovery speed, but the time of the night was already full. Of course, he also understood what Princess Yalan meant, and said directly: "You deal with other miscellaneous soldiers, this guy will be handed over to me." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Linton saw a huge icicle flying towards him in front of him, obviously aimed at him, and it was estimated that Princess Yalan was not within the calculation range of the opponent's combat power.
"Amaterasu." Linton looked up directly, and the icicle flying over was Amaterasu, and a black fire flew out, colliding directly with the icicle in front of him.
The "hiss" sound seemed to be a bit like the sound of extinguishing a fire, but Amaterasu didn't mean to extinguish it, and the moment it hit the icicle, the icicle on this side instantly turned into water, and the next moment it turned into gas, and the whole situation seemed to disappear suddenly.
Without much resistance, the icicle was dissolved by Linton, and not only that, Linton's Amaterasu remained in the same direction, and hit in the direction of the Assassin leader.
Although he had no idea what the black flame was, what had just happened had already told the Assassin leader that this thing could not be taken up. Fortunately, there is some distance between the two sides, and Amaterasu's flight speed is not very fast, and the leader here also quickly turned over, and dodged Amaterasu's attack in a little embarrassment, and the next moment, he also immediately raised his head to find Linton's position, which is basic combat quality, but at the moment he looked up, he suddenly looked at Linton.
The red strange light flashed, and in the next second, the assassin leader suddenly found himself nailed in place by several triangular pyramidal wedges, he had no idea where these things came from and when they were inserted into his body, but soon the sharp pain came, and he clearly felt that several holes had been opened in his body.
"Ahhh......h
"Didn't anyone teach you not to look at the Sharingan when you fight with the people of the Uchiha family?" Linton walked over slowly.
The leader's screams caught the attention of the Assassin and Princess Arran next to them, but when they turned their heads to look at the situation, the situation was very strange. The Assassin leader stood there, screaming and struggling, as if he had been trapped by something, but the problem was that they didn't see anything. The Assassin leader was fine now, not even a drop of blood had been shed, so what the hell was going on.
Of course, Linton used illusion, and he also found that the world here didn't seem to know much about illusion. Other ninjutsu can also be explained by magic, but illusion seems to be a feeling that everyone will not be able to guard against, the previous fire swallowing beast is much more powerful than this assassin leader, or Linton's illusion, and now the old trick is repeated, and sure enough, the leader is also hit.
The illusion used by Linton is called Magic. The technique of flail is a unique illusion technique of the Uchiha family, and it can only be used with the writing wheel eye. The most powerful thing about this illusion is that it doesn't need any seal at all, it can be triggered by looking at each other directly, and for enemies who don't know the truth, Linton just needs to look at the other party and wait for the other party to be hit.
"How...... Probably ......," said the leader here, gritting his teeth, "what the hell have you done?" By the way, it's your eyes, what the hell are your eyes...... What is it? ”
Although he didn't know about the Sharingan, it was obvious that he had sensed the strangeness of Linton's eyes, or that he had intuitively discovered the medium through which Linton released his illusion.
"You're not mistaken, who's asking whom?" Linton had already walked up to the Assassin leader and pulled his cloak away. This is a middle-aged man who looks about fifty years old, looks very thin, has a little white complexion, and has no other special features, the more he looks like an ordinary person.
"Tell me, who are you? Who sent you? Linton asked by pulling the other man's hair.
The other party didn't mean to answer at all, but Linton noticed that the other party's hand was slightly raised. Linton frowned, this guy seems to be showing signs of breaking free, is there a way to break free from illusion here?
"Freeze quickly!" Suddenly, the other party yelled, and Linton, who sensed that something was wrong, quickly retreated.
