Chapter 429: Clues

Before this, the city of Santa Utopia, which had such a resounding title as the "City of Innocence", had not had a single murder for hundreds of years! In this kind of place, it is obvious that there will be no place for the Assassin Guild and the Killer Guild, and even the stronghold of the ubiquitous Thieves' Guild is not in the city. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

So, Dio left Santa Utopia and searched the surrounding towns.

In the nearest town to Santa Utopia, Dio managed to discover a stronghold of the Thieves' Guild.

"I have to say, the power of the Thieves Guild is really huge."

Glancing at the tavern as a cover, Dio jumped straight into a cellar.

Ignoring the thieves who wanted to touch him, Dio quickly issued a "clue-finding" request at the bar, and then left the stronghold of the thieves' guild.

Although the Thieves' Guild is very good at gathering intelligence, they are not very efficient, and the asking price is high! Therefore, Dio did not plan to stay in the Thieves' Guild, but chose to continue to look for the Assassins' Guild.

Thanks to the help of some "well-wishers" in the Thieves' Guild, Dio easily obtained the location of the Assassins' Guild and the Killers' Guild. Considering the degree of protection of the Killer Guild for the publisher of the quest, Dio did not choose to post the quest there, but went straight to the Assassin Guild.

The nearest Assassin guild stronghold to the city of Santa Utopia was in a small mountain village nestled in the mountains. However, after seeing the vast manor, Dio really felt that these assassins were really good at playing.

Actually training those rookies so openly, aren't you afraid of those police, no, the paladins come to find fault?

After thinking helplessly for a while, Dio walked directly to the Assassin Guild that seemed to have the function of a rookie training base.

"This is private territory! Do not enter! ”

Seeing Dio getting closer and closer, the two guards standing at the door immediately raised their vigilance, and the guard on the left shouted directly.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, a black chain wrapped around his feet like a snake.

"The vigilance is still not high enough."

Dio, who shrugged his shoulders, controlled the hook of "greed" and hung both guards upside down on the gate.

"Enemy attack!"

After shouting, the two sentries who had been hiding in the shadows took out their crossbows and shot at Dio. After hearing the shouts of the secret whistle, the assassin instructor in charge of training the rookie assassins quickly organized the rookie to retreat.

Although the strength of these rookies is not comparable to that of the real Assassins, they are still young, and it is very likely that they will be the backbone of the Assassin Guild in the next era!

So, after letting some of the rookie Assassin squad leaders lead everyone into the tunnels, the Assassin instructor also pulled out his crossbow and shot at Dio.

Unfortunately, neither the sentinels nor the Assassin instructors could cause Dio the slightest bit of trouble.

“…… Although they are all rookies, they have practiced some basic skills very solidly! ”

Dio watched the rookies who were evacuating in an orderly manner, and blocked all the crossbow arrows with his "lazy" chain.

Noticing Dio's gaze, the assassin instructor immediately became anxious.

"I'll stop him!"

The gray-bearded Assassin instructor put away his crossbow and shouted at the sentinels, "Get out with the children!" ”

The sentries hiding in the shadows glanced at each other and then left in unison. The sentry at the end shouted at the Assassin instructor, "Old man Jacob! You're going to have to hold on! ”

"Don't worry! I'm sure I'll outlive you! ”

The old assassin named Jacob replied with a smile and jumped towards Dio.

In mid-air, a pair of Hidden Blades bounced out of his sleeve, aiming directly at Dio's head!

"How do you make me feel like a villain?"

After complaining a little helplessly, Dio directly controlled "Greed" and grabbed Jacob.

Facing the capture of "greed", Jacob poured all his fighting energy into the Hidden Blade in his left hand without fear, and then slashed it with a sword!

"Boom!"

While blocking "Greed", Jacob reached out his right hand, and the Hidden Blade on his right hand pierced straight into Dio's eyes.

But at this moment, "Lazy" blocked Dio in time, and completely blocked the thorn with the chain body.

Seeing that this blow seemed to be about to fail, Jacob stretched out his right foot in time, stepped on the "lazy", and with the help of this force, he flipped behind Dio!

Just as Jacob's body turned over directly above Dio, Dio, who was shaking his head, stretched out his right hand upwards and aimed his palm at Jacob's waist.

A black ball burst out of Dio's hand.

Black Magic Bullet!

At such a close distance, Jacob didn't have time to dodge before he was hit hard by the black magic bullet in the waist!

"Poof!"

Jacob, who spurted out a mouthful of blood, didn't seem to be affected by the blow at all, and when he flipped over to Dio's back, he clasped his hands together and drew a cross-shaped fighting slash.

It's a pity that this vindictive slash was still blocked in time by the "laziness" that moved over on its own.

However, Jacob, who had expected this, endured the pain in his waist and quickly stabbed the pair of Hidden Blades into Dio's back.

This time, he controlled the Hidden Blade to cut through the gap between the lines formed by Lazy, and stabbed Dio's seemingly defenseless back.

But at this moment, "Lazy" moved and tightened the chain hard. The pair of Hidden Blades that had already passed through those gaps were suddenly bound by the interlaced black chains.

Looking at Jacob, who was only a little distance away from Dio's back, the pain in his heart was really indescribable.

However, he was an assassin after all, and his will was far more tenacious than ordinary people. So Jacob, who realized that this attack had completely failed, immediately planned to withdraw and retreat. However, when he pulled his Hidden Blade hard, he found that with his arm strength under the blessing of Dou Qi, he couldn't pull back his weapon!

How is this possible!

As such a thought flashed through Jacob's mind, Jacob immediately decided to give up his Hidden Blade first. But before he could act, "Lazy" suddenly let go, and then the "Rage" meteor hammer bypassed Dio's body and struck Jacob directly in the chest.

This hammer was so heavy that it directly knocked Jacob flying!

With a bit of reluctance, Jacob, who had been severely injured by Dio, landed firmly on the ground after making a backflip, and then raised his head and spewed out a large mouthful of blood......

"Instructor Jacob!"

Under the exclamations of a few rookies who had not yet entered the tunnel, Jacob, whose face was pale, slowly collapsed to the ground.

This scene immediately made a young man in white who had just rushed out of the house red-eyed.

"Give me my life!"

After drawing two swords from his waist, the young man in white rushed towards Dio.

At the same time, after the young man in white appeared, Dio noticed that the other assassins seemed to be much calmer, and the rookie assassins who had not yet entered the tunnel showed a little reassuring smile on their faces.

(Looks like he's a big guy!) )

Before Dio could take a closer look at the young man in white, Jacob, who had fallen to the ground, shouted weakly, "Horse...... Marcelo! Small...... Be careful...... His ......"

Before he could finish speaking, Jacob tilted his head and lost consciousness completely.

"Uncle Jacob!"

Marcelo let out a cry of grief, and then swung his twin swords and slashed wildly at Dio.

Although he seemed to have lost his mind, Marcelo's swordsmanship was still quite sharp, so Dio had to dodge.

It's not that "laziness" can't stop Marcelo's twin swords, but Dio doesn't want the Seven Deadly Sins to be damaged, after all, it would be troublesome to repair these chains.

After a flurry of slashes in the head and face, but none of them succeeded in hitting Dio, Marcelo immediately forced himself to calm down.

If it goes on like this, it won't work!

Marcelo, who said this to himself, beckoned to Dio.

Provocation!

But just when Dio was about to fight, Marcelo made a mistake, and the whole person disappeared from Dio's face in an instant!

(What about people?) )

Dio's eyes widened suddenly, and at the same time, he quickly let go of his senses, and then was surprised to find that Marcelo had already come behind him!

Assassins' Exclusive Skill: Shadowwalk!

Marcelo, who appeared behind Dio, did not hesitate and directly stabbed out the double swords in his hand. But at this critical moment, "laziness" was slowly in front of him!

"Boom! Boom! ”

The twin swords infused with a lot of fighting spirit cut two sparks on the chain body of "Lazy", leaving two big gaps, but Marcelo, who failed to hurt Dior, could only retreat decisively.

Professions like Assassins and Killers aren't as good at head-to-head combat as warriors. Of course, an anomaly like the Bloodblade is an exception entirely.

So Marcelo, who didn't succeed, retreated quickly.

However, he retreated fast enough, and Dio's speed of chasing was not slow at all!

"Since they're all here, there's no need to go!"

Dio said with a smile as he flung out the Meteor Hammer of Rage.

"That's supposed to be me!"

Feeling the power of "anger", Marcelo, whose face changed, replied without hesitation, and then fell to the ground like a vicious dog pounced.

The "Fury" meteor hammer that flew past Marcelo's body fell heavily to the ground, directly smashing the solid ground into a large crater with a diameter of more than two meters.

Just when the splashed dirt fell on the stunned Marcelo's face, Marcelo rolled without hesitation and dodged the clip of "gluttony" just right!

"Click!"

The empty "gluttony" seemed to be very unhappy, and staggered the pair of giant scissor-like blades at Marcelo again. But before "Gluttony" attacked again, Marcelo was already like a frightened rabbit, crawling out directly, and once again dodged the stab of "Jealousy".

"My instincts are sharp!"

Looking at Marcelo, who was only left with the power to dodge under the repeated attacks of the Seven Deadly Sins, Dio nodded appreciatively.

With his ninth-order strength, it can really be said that it is quite good to be able to hold on to the attack of the Seven Deadly Sins for so long.

"But it's time for the game to ......"

As Dio slowly raised his right hand, the seven deadly sins that had been chasing Marcelo stopped together, and appropriately left a little space for Marcelo to dodge.

However, judging from the seven deadly sins that are gaining momentum, their next blow may not be so easy to dodge.

Looking at the five black chains that surrounded him ("arrogance" and "laziness" were still by Dio's side), the sweaty Marcelo had a bitter look on his face.

The other party hasn't made a full move, and he has been forced to this extent, so you can imagine how big the difference in strength between the two sides is......

However, Marcelo is not going to give up on this!

After taking a deep breath, Marcelo half-crouched, his eyes fixed on the black chains in front of him.

Under his gaze, "greed", "anger" and "gluttony" continued to rise unabatedly, until the seven deadly sins rose to a distance of two meters from Marcelo.

In the next moment, five black chains pounced on Marcelo in unison. But at the moment when they were about to hit Marcelo, Marcelo made a mistake with both feet, and the whole person disappeared from the spot in an instant.

However, when Marcelo, who appeared behind Dio, was about to attack, he was met with a sharp back swing!

Directly kicked Marcelo in the face, and after kicking him directly, Dio raised his eyebrows at him and said: "The same move is ineffective for me!" ”

You have to say this kind of thing earlier!

After glaring at Dio with indignation on his face, Marcelo, who had not yet landed, rolled his eyes and lost consciousness directly.

Well, this may be a good thing for him.

After controlling "greed" and picking up Marcelo directly like catching a chick, Dio walked slowly into the manor.

After the two masters, one old and one young, were planted in his hands, it seemed that this assassin guild had no masters who could resist him.

"Although you have been suppressed by the church, as a branch, your strength here is really a little too weak, right?"

Looking at the assassins who were staring at him with a look of jealousy, Dio said with some emotion.

"You, what did you say?"

However, upon hearing Dio's words, the Assassins looked puzzled.

"We're not a club here......"

Now, it's Dio's turn to look confused: isn't it a club? Is this the headquarters of the Assassin Guild?
