Shen Fei left the wishing fountain in style, leaving only a copper coin as evidence that he had been there.

"Hey, it's so unpleasant to be fooled by a child!"

Thinking of the copper coin he had just thrown, Shen Fei felt a pain in his flesh. Only he, Shen Fei, fooled others, why did it turn around today?

The sun fell asleep with the ocean as its making, leaving the sky to the crescent moon and the stars.

The lights in the holy city were lit up one by one, and Shen Fei had already walked to the rich area, and when he looked back at the civilian area below, it seemed to be immersed in a sea of stars, and there was light everywhere. The lighting of the rich area is not as good as that of the civilian area, but it can also be called a prosperous sentence, and when you look up at the royal area at the top, there are only sporadic lights as a point, and there is always a feeling of deep walls and palaces, deserted and isolated.

Also, the original royal family was at least happy, and Lucien and Queen Jean were in harmony.

But from Joshua's birth, the queen's death in childbirth, and Lucian's inexplicable disappearance, only Joshua was left in the entire huge royal family.

Margaret, the Countess, who was Joshua's aunt, had her own mansion and would return to the palace only three or five days a month to be with the little prince. For the rest of the day, only loyal guards stood by the little prince's side.

Speaking of which, after he takes office tomorrow, he is going to find a time to meet this little nephew.

Shen Fei glanced at the system, and there was still half an hour until the forced offline time, which was enough for him to return to Xiaozhuxuan offline.

The higher you go up in the Holy City, the thinner the lights become. Even the popularity is much less, and only the desert that can penetrate all defenses is left, and it hits like a wave from all directions.

The lights on both sides of the road are embraced by half-height trees, and only sporadic lights peek through the mottled leaves and sprinkle stars on the ground.

Suddenly, Shen Fei's ears moved, and he heard the soft groan of metal rubbing the air at high speed, the sound was a bit like a beep, and it was close to his ears!

Shen Fei instantly exploded, because of the relationship between coins and forging, he was very good at distinguishing the sounds made by metal in various situations.

This sound is the sound of sharp metal rubbing against the air, it's a dagger!

Shen Fei's reaction was extremely fast, and he immediately took out the rattan sword pinned to his waist, and activated the "Counterattack Storm" the moment he turned around.

"Counter Storm": Inspired by the superb melee defense skills of weapon master Jax, use your one-handed sword to parry attacks from all directions, dealing equal damage to enemies for a total of 4 times for 10 seconds. (Note that this skill can only parry physical attacks, and the skill cannot be upgraded)

Bang Zheng!

There were no sparks, no air waves or loud noises, Shen Fei's reaction and consciousness saved him, successfully blocking the killer blow from behind, and at the same time, he also saw the assassin wearing a night suit, wrapping himself tightly, and not even showing his eyes.

The Fujiki sword blocked the enemy's sharp dagger, and at the same time, the tip of the sword was picked at the joint of the enemy's arm, and the enemy was assassinated.

The subtle sword skills from the weapon master Jax completely return the damage to the opponent.

Poof!

Before the enemy could react, the dagger stabbed steadily into the enemy's throat, tearing a brilliant flower of blood through the black night coat.

The man in black gurgled in his throat and struggled for a moment to cut off his breath.

"You kill the [Assassin in Black] (Lv40), gain +2000 XP and +2000 XP for Full Rest."

Shen Fei's eyes were extremely sharp, and he looked around vigilantly to see if there were any other assassins.

Inexplicably encountered an assassin in the Holy City, if he hadn't reacted quickly, I am afraid that he would have become a corpse at this moment.

Shen Fei stood aside and used his vine sword to pick open the assassin's mask, only to see that the cold dark green fire flickered in the sockets of this guy's eyes and gradually extinguished, and his whole face was emaciated like a skeleton dressed in human skin.

This time it can be said that it is dangerous and dangerous, Shen Fei's "Counterattack Storm" can resist targets that are up to 10 levels higher than himself, this man in black assassin happens to be level 40, if it is 1 level higher, Counterattack Storm will not be able to resist the fatal blow from behind.

At this moment, the sound of a convoy suddenly came from the corner of the road, and the carriage driven by the attendants and guards slowly descended from the royal quarter, and saw Shen Fei in the middle of the road and the corpse of the man in black on the ground.

The guard immediately drew his sword and stood beside the carriage, shouting, "There are assassins!" ”

There were only a few people in the Holy City who had seen Shen Fei and knew his identity, and these guards suddenly saw the horizontal corpse in the middle of the road and Shen Fei holding a weapon, and subconsciously regarded him as an assassin.

The Grand Duke lifted the curtain of the carriage, but saw Shen Fei standing in the middle of the road, and looked stunned.

Ferdinand raised his hand to stop his subordinates: "Elder Shen is not an assassin. Then he immediately got out of the carriage to see what was going on.

Shen Fei was a little surprised, was it a bit too coincidental that the Grand Duke appeared here at this time?

The guard hesitated, put away his weapon, and walked up after the Grand Duke.

Ferdinand got out of the carriage and saw the black-clad assassin lying on the ground, frowned, and quickly stepped forward to check it.

"Elder Shen is okay, right?"

This is the junction of the royal district and the rich district, and there are assassins, and the target of the assassination is Shen Fei, who is extremely sensitive, and the problem behind this is a bit serious!

Shen Fei looked at Ferdinand, unable to find any answer on his face.

Looking at Ferdinand, and then at the corpse of the assassin on the ground, Shen Fei felt that the Grand Duke's appearance here did not seem to be a coincidence.

"This assassin is so skilled that I don't even know when he was following him. Hasn't the Duke returned home so late? ”

Ferdinand crouched down and looked at the assassin, and responded, "There is some government to report in the palace today, so I came back late." ”

When the Grand Duke got out of the carriage, he had already asked his men to inform MI7, and in less than three minutes, Shadow personally led the team to appear at the scene of the crime.

Knowing that the boss was assassinated, the shadow was extremely angry, and someone dared to do something to the top commander of MI7, is this tired?

brought the most elite personnel of MI7 to the scene of the crime, and saw that Shen Fei was okay to chat and express comfort.

Shen Fei glanced at the time, there were still seven minutes left before the forced offline time, and motioned for the shadow to take the assassin's body back to investigate it properly, and report the results to him tomorrow.

Ferdinand also instructed the soldiers as soon as possible, and at the same time informed the Royal Janissaries to strengthen patrols and security in the Royal District.

Since the disappearance of King Lucian, there has been an undercurrent of various forces, but this is the first time that a blatant assassination has occurred. This time, he rushed directly to Shen Fei, the purpose couldn't be more obvious, he didn't want him to become the Supreme Elder, or the supreme commander of MI7, or the highest power circle in the empire.

Shen Fei left very chic, but his heart was not as free and easy as his posture. Because when Shen Fei left, the system suddenly jumped out of a task.
