Chapter 598: Snow Peak's Observation
In the slightly dimly lit underground room, Silvergray was looking at a book with a somewhat worn cover, and two elite assassins stood guard at the door.
Since the people in the Black Flame Department already knew Luo Yan's identity, they didn't stop him, and Luo Yan walked directly inside.
"Looks like you've successfully completed your mission?" Silver Gray said without raising his head.
"Sort of." Luo Yan still sat on the sofa opposite, picked up the apple on the table and nibbled on it.
At this time, on the wall behind him, there was a sudden scratch on the mission with the invasion of the blood clan, and then Luo Yan heard a prompt sound.
"Ding, the system prompts, you have completed the A-level task of the Black Flame Department, your credibility has increased by 120, and you have the right to enter and leave the Black Flame Department freely."
"This time, you asked me to take a new mission?" Silver Ash put down the book in his hand and said.
"Hmm...... It's not all, the main thing is that I see that you like reading so much, and I'm here to send you books. Luo Yan said, chewing on an apple.
"Oh?" Silver Ash looked up at Luo Yan.
Luo Yan stood up, took out the previous "Dark Curse Magic**", and put it in front of Silver Ash.
There was a hint of surprise in Silvergray's eyes, and he picked up the book and looked through it roughly.
"Hehe, interesting, but I don't think you're just sending me books, and it's such a sideline book." Said with a silver palm on the cover of the book.
"Well, it's true that I have a friend who has a curse, and it seems that there is a way to get rid of it, but I don't recognize the font on it. I'd like you to translate it. β
"Hahaha, Lord Protector, I'm in the Assassin Department here, why do you think I, a staff officer, can read such magic books?" Silver Gray smiled more seriously for the first time.
"Just stop by and ask, but you don't seem to be very interested in this book, if not, then I'll go find someone else." Luo Yan put on an indifferent expression here, and said that he was about to get the book back again.
"No, I'm interested, what's the curse on that friend of yours?" Although Silver Ash was restraining his emotions, Luo Yan's actions just now obviously made Silver Ash a little nervous.
Luo Yan smiled and said, "UrisΓ©s curse." β
"Oh? This curse is really not easy to deal with. As he spoke, Silver Ash began to rummage, but Rollan directly flipped to the number of pages of Urises' curse.
"It's just that there's a string of characters underneath, and I can't read it."
"Well, this is the magic language of the ancient northern priests, although I can read it, but I need to consult a lot of information to crack it."
"Can you solve the spell, then?"
"Yes, but before you do, you'll have to help me with a mission." Silver Gray closed the book and looked at Luo Yan with a smile.
"Mission or something, no problem, but how do I make sure you keep your word?"
"I can't make sure of it, it's up to you to believe me or not." Silver Gray laughed.
"Truth be told, it's not that easy for you to convince me of an Assassin staff officer. But I don't believe you, but if you can't keep your promise, I can keep you from getting the book, and even if I complete the task you gave me, I can mess it up again. Luo Yan put his hands on the table, and said with a pair of eyes looking directly at the silver gray.
"Hehe, my task is not difficult, I need you to go to the Black Ice Witch Village on another hill and pick some enemy order flowers, but this kind of flower has been monopolized by the Black Ice Witch Village, only in their planting land, where there is a part of the deployment of troops, and there are also a lot of climbing snakes. Of course, I don't think it's that hard for you. Silver Gray said.
"Ding, the system prompts, Silver Ash has issued you a B+-level mission [Picking the Enemy Order Flower], whether to accept it."
"Accept."
"Okay, I'll take this task."
"In addition, the enemy order flower will only bloom at night, you must bring it to me at night, or after dawn, the effect of this flower will disappear."
"Well, no problem, but hopefully you'll have cracked this string of characters by the time I come back from my mission." Luo Yan smiled as he walked out of the house.
Silver Gray nodded slightly, smiling in response.
Since it will bloom at night, this task is just scheduled to be done at night, so that Luo Yan still has free time to go to the tavern.
On the other side, not long after Luo Yan left, Xue Feng walked into the room of Silver Ash, and there seemed to be a trace of disdain in his eyes, of course, not for Silver Ash.
"Lord Silver Gray, the so-called Protector who came just now doesn't seem to be as powerful as you say."
"Oh? Why do you say that. Silvergray was busy deciphering the characters on it, and there were a large number of books on the desk.
"When this man came in just now, I didn't see any defensiveness on his face, and I didn't even glance at him when I passed by where my agency had set up. And he didn't notice me everywhere on the second floor. β
"Hehe, Xuefeng, this is what should make you feel strange. In fact, there were only two possibilities for an Assassin to do this. One is that he doesn't have any reconnaissance at all, and he doesn't even have the sense of precaution, and he can't even get started as an assassin. And the second is that he has already seen through all the mechanisms, including you on the second floor. And judging from the fact that he quietly entered my room the first time, it was clear that he belonged to the second place. β
"What?" Xue Feng's face showed a look of surprise, and it seemed that he was only now beginning to react.
"And the reason why he showed such a relaxed appearance was actually to lower the target's defense, you see, you came to me and told me that this assassin was not very good, so if you didn't run to tell me, but directly attacked him at that time with this mentality, what do you think would be the end?"
"This ......" A drop of cold sweat popped on Xue Feng's face, because Silver Ash was right, he did have the idea of a direct sneak attack at that time, and at this time, he was even more frightened.
"There is no doubt that if a person takes off his guard and goes to assassinate, then if you face an assassin of his level, the end will be that you will be killed in an instant." Silver Gray finished explaining, and began to consult the books on the table again.
"I'm sorry Lord Silver Gray, it's me who has a clumsy vision, and the reminder you gave me is like an empowerment, thank you." Xue Feng said with his fists clenched.
"Well, I don't blame you, although you are a master of the mechanism, but you have not been in contact with an assassin of this level, and I have only seen an assassin with this temperament in the previous Hei Yan." Silver Ash said seriously again.
"The last Black Flame? Could it be that Lord Silver Gray is saying that he has the capital to serve as Black Flame? β
"I hope so, I'm also in the testing period, and from the current point of view, I can't see through this person's potential, so I'll have to observe it for a while."
"Well, my subordinates get it."
"Well, you go down first, I still have something to deal with. In addition, temporarily withdrawing the Assassins who were going to go to the Black Ice Witch Village, now going is tantamount to death. β
"Yes." Xue Feng clenched his fists and bowed his head.
