Chapter 214: The Boxer and Gui Luo

My name is Akatosh,

I'm hanging out in Rift City.

—4E, 201, Last Seed, 29th, 22:17

At night in Rift Valley, there is a kind of "curfew" that allows anyone to move on the streets after 10 p.m. must be unconditionally inspected and questioned by the guards, who can attack them if they try to resist or escape.

Of course, they couldn't see me.

This rule, which would have met with a lot of criticism in other cities, has been implemented very smoothly in Rift City, not only because of the sheer power of the Black Thorns, but also because there are always thieves at night, and if there are no pedestrians on the streets, they will naturally have nothing to hide - like the guy over there who just slipped out of a certain residence.

Dressed in the uniform of the Thieves' Guild, with a hood covering his face and carrying a small package containing his belongings, he tried his best to hide in the shadows but was quickly spotted by the guards of Rift City.

"Hey! You! Hold it! "Ran in the direction of the city gate!" "Stop him!"

Several of the guards on patrol shouted, and the other guards who rushed to intercept the thief, but the guy fled without letting go of the package in his hand.

[Do you want to save it?] 】

It's a bit of a problem, he's going to have to confiscate the stolen goods when he's caught. ’

I watched as the thief, Drav, stupidly fled in a straight line, while several of the guards with bows and arrows already smiled confidently.

Well, so be it.

Boom! Poof! As he passed a small bridge across the city, I teleported over and let an arrow hit my back, and before Draf could feel anything about the arrow dangling in front of him, I kicked him and his people into the river.

"Do you want to go down to the river to chase after you?" "I'm going to go, you're going."

The guards who had chased after them looked at the dark surface of the river in the middle of the night, discussed with each other for a few words, and then dispersed.

This Draph is not a member of the Thieves' Guild, he and a companion named Henon Black Snow Mouse are just ordinary thieves, and after trying to imitate the uniforms of the Thieves' Guild, he wears them to the Thieves' Guild in his usual thefts.

Originally, they were supposed to be in the sewers under Rift City, called "Rat Passage", and the Dragonborn protagonist recruited by Brinchov broke the plot and tried to kill people when they were killed.

As for now...... I removed the arrow wound and destroyed it with my hand.

[Palacos, who looks like the protagonist, has not yet left to return to the base camp of the Thieves' Guild in the Rat Tunnel, and Princess Amilia, who is more like the protagonist, has too high a stealth level, so they didn't notice it at all when they passed by the two people.] 】

'I wanted to ask before, because of Ryunosuke, Artoria turned old into a sword, even if it was okay, why did Emir come with him? He still looks like he always wants to find me. ’

[Because her name is Ryunosuke?] 】

'Don't give me questions!' Even if I am the supreme being in every world, I don't know anything about the problems between worlds, otherwise I wouldn't be put on the plate by Mora! ’

At this time, Henon Black Snow Rat, wearing a Thieves' Guild uniform, snuck up to the place where Draff had fallen into the water to observe, and I flew up again and kicked him down.

[Is this appropriate?] 】

'Both of them can swim, and with the fact that I'm deliberately controlling the undercurrent, they should be able to come ashore far from Rift City, and since their faces have been seen by the guards, they won't come back to die, what's the problem?' ’

[I mean, you're kicking people in high heels......]

'It's noisy! Shut up! I'm going to see Guiluo! ’

Black Zhen is that shape, what can I do?

——22:36——

The Hall of Glory Orphanage in Rift City is famous throughout Skyrim Province, and was built by the Black Thorns family with the help of many nobles and powerful people, all of whom have their names carved into the walls of the orphanage that can be seen directly from the entrance.

Because of this advantage, it is not only built in the heart of Rift Valley City, where every inch of land is expensive, the interior decoration is as ornate as a high-end hotel, and there are members of major families who visit it every day, and even the orphans received here are very few real commoners, all of them basically have names and surnames, and some surnames even come from nobles with a long heritage.

Most of those children are involved in a large amount of money or political legacy, and the parties who may benefit from it are at odds, and they end up taking a step back and placing them in orphanages and waiting for them to grow up before moving on to the next step.

Therefore, the director and administrator of the orphanage, and even the cleaners, cooks and janitors are all selected in a multi-party game to ensure that they do not mislead the "orphans".

'Hmm...... All I can say is that this magic change is more exaggerated than Winterhold Academy. ’

I visited the building, which was large enough to accommodate dozens of children, and most of the 19 orphans were asleep, showing no signs of abuse or reprimanding.

The janitor was still on duty, the cleaners and cooks had returned to their homes in the orphanage, several female caretakers were coaxing the imps who refused to sleep, and "Kindness Guiro" was writing a report on the daily lives of the orphans in her room.

[Even if there is no magic change, she is still the vicious old lady who always abuses children because of her bad heart, you won't let her be killed, right? ] 】

That's not nonsense. ’

I looked around Gui Luo, and I was almost sure that the name "Kind Gui Luo" was an obvious irony, this old lady was full of silver hair, her figure was taller and stronger than that of ordinary old people, the corners of her eyes and mouth were a little hanging, coupled with deep wrinkles, her appearance could almost be called fierce, and where did she come from.

Although Aventus's imp summoned me for the first dark ritual, and Sister A of the Dark Brotherhood didn't react in particular, I'm still not sure if anyone else would want to kill her if I left this old lady alone, so I found a way to get her to die—

"You're here to kill me?" Gui Luo put down the report in his hand and looked at me.

[Akatosh, you've been discovered! 】

'I think you weren't packed enough!' ’

I turned sideways and followed the path of Guiluo's gaze, which was the corner of the wall that "looked" empty, and even after Guiluo spoke up and looked there, the lurker remained motionless.

"Ever since I accepted the terms of the deal and wrote Aventus Eritino in his report as 'Death in an accident,' I've been wondering when you're going to send someone to get me to 'Die in an Accident' as well, and it's clear that you trust another way to shut things up rather than a deal – but you don't seem to have much confidence in yourself?" Gui Luo looked very sure that there was someone there, and talked eloquently.

While there are other ways I can find out the strength and hole cards of both of them, isn't that interesting? I stepped back a little bit and continued to enjoy the drama.

"You can call me 'Boxer.'" The air in the corner fluctuated a few times, and a man dressed in tattered linen appeared, who looked like a beggar everywhere in the dark corners of Rift City, with few distinguishing features other than a bare head, and likewise, carrying no weapons.

"My attack will not cause any external injuries or marks, and even if the priests of the temple come to check on you, they will only conclude that you died of a common geriatric disease such as 'heart palsy' or 'organ failure'," the boxer took a stance and walked towards Gui Luo, "Now, you can open the hole cards that you know that someone is going to kill you." ”

"It's really not easy to be spotted if you don't have any equipment and weapons at all, and you only fight with your fists," Gui Luo stared at the approaching boxer, "Then, maybe it's time for you to see another method of fighting without equipment and weapons either." ”

“……!” The boxer seemed to think of something, his expression did not change, and he stepped forward with a powerful left punch.

"You guessed it." Gui Luo raised his right hand, and an invisible barrier blocked the front of the fist, although it was shattered and scattered in the next instant, it still blocked the boxer's attack.

Well, the magician, it's not completely unexpected, the one that was just shattered should be an intermediate shield technique, and it can be deduced from this that the boxer's unarmed attack power is about 60 points...... I don't have to be to digitize them!

After the boxer's attack was blocked, he immediately did not hesitate to swing another fist to attack, which was also blocked by a barrier, and taking advantage of this gap, Gui Luo summoned a one-handed sword emitting purple mist on his right hand, and forced back the boxer who tried to attack again.

"Magician?" The boxer's expression was slightly distorted.

Click. Gui Luo's empty left hand successfully cast the spell again, and a close-fitting light film that shimmered with a faint green light enveloped her whole body, and then she performed a starting gesture to release the shield spell.

[Poof, the empty-handed old lady instantly turned into a sword and shield warrior]

"Summoning and transformation spells are also magic." Gui Luo's fierce face looked terrifying under the green and purple light.

I guess she used this to scare children. ’

"Your spells will last two minutes at most...... Cut. Halfway through his words, the boxer's face changed because of the shouting and running sounds coming from outside.

"It's a pity that I didn't learn to cast spells silently." Holding the sword and shield summoned by magic, Gui Luo began to approach the boxer, as if intending to counterattack.

"You can hide for a while, but you can't hide for a lifetime." The bald boxer quickly poured a jar of the seemingly undrinkable potion, and then disappeared into thin air.

[He drank the invisibility potion and fled through the window, and now?] 】

"Hey, hey, I was worried about how to place an old lady, but now it's okay, I don't have to hesitate to throw it directly to the Mage Academy, but before that, I have to make a fake corpse first, and-'

——22:57——

"Dean Guiluo!"

Constance Mitchell, the vice president, rushed in just in time to see me stabbing "Guiluo" to death with the Black Dragon Banner.

After a slight pause to make sure she saw my appearance and clothing, I turned and jumped out the window, while the bears who had arrived at the news were still cheering "Aventus did it" and "Long live the Dark Brotherhood".

I heard that Sister A has a magic skill of "no matter where you are at the end of the world, as long as you fall asleep, you will be captured", I want to try it, and go back to Songjiade to sleep.
