Chapter 483: The Mastermind Behind the Scenes

In the stunned gaze of everyone, including Wu Tongtong, after Xia Houben turned around, his right hand once again held the blade of the giant sword in both hands and pulled violently, and the blood soaked the giant sword again.

Seeing Xia Houben walking towards him, this assassin can no longer be as calm as he was just now, as a killer, if he is killed by the other party like this, then his career will be completely ruined, not only can he not engage in combat careers in the future, but it will be difficult to even be a life player.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of neat and crisp footsteps, and the assassin was overjoyed, and sure enough, he saw a group of City Watch guards coming not far away.

"Give you ten seconds to think about it!"

But seeing that the other party didn't care about the guard who rushed over, he came to him and said coldly, but the assassin's body trembled involuntarily.

He often kills, and he has never been so scared for a moment as he is now, looking at the other party's devouring eyes, he knows that the other party is not joking.

"I don't know! I really don't know! We only do it through intermediaries! The assassin finally broke down and shouted, as he silently chanted a spell and the terrifying little evil spirits wrapped around his greatsword again.

By this time, the guards had seen what was going on and had surrounded them, but the next moment the two Assassins saw that the terrible warrior had reached out and put on a cloak representing the lord of the battle map. The guards were sure that he could only leave with a handprint on a contract, and the two Assassins wiped a cold sweat.

Now that they had spoken, the two assassins couldn't care about anything else, they didn't want to do anything about it. Burying his career, he quickly said the name and contact information of the intermediary.

"What we say is true. Please let us go," but the next moment they found that the other party still did not intend to let the two of them go, and the giant sword in his hand was about to swing again. I couldn't help but blurt out at the same time to seek the truth.

"Forget it" At this moment, Li Ran stretched out his hand to stop Xia Houben.

Seeing that Li Ran spoke, Xia Houben still said a little unwillingly: "Just let them go like this, in case they come back in the future~"

The remaining two assassins also saw that their lives were ultimately in the hands of their target, so they looked at Li Ran with almost expectant eyes.

Li Ran was hit by an arrow, and the continuous dodge also made him tired, and at this time he couldn't help coughing and said, "They shouldn't have been sent by those people."

Xia Houben understood what Li Ran meant, if it was an assassin sent by those people before, it would never be just such a level. So he nodded and put away his two-handed greatsword.

At this time, Li Ran looked at the two assassins and pointed to Xia Houben and said: "You can go, but add him a contact before leaving, I need you to do a favor, find an intermediary and ask for the name of the hired person to send to him, of course, you can also leave and disappear or continue to find a chance to avenge your companions, but no matter which path you choose, within a week, if the name of the hired person is not sent, I will automatically break the contract with you." The next time you meet you will never be as simple as today."

The two glanced at each other, successively added Xia Houben as a contact, glanced at Li Ran and left.

A storm dissipated, and the most talked about by the surrounding crowd at this time was not the assassination. It was the cloak on Xia Houben's body, which was the exclusive equipment of the battle map lord, although he was taken aback by what happened just now. But people still looked at Xia Houben curiously.

Seeing this, Xia Houben put away his cloak and quickly left with Li Ran and the others. Disappear into the crowd. Unaware of the fact that there was a Terran player in the crowd staring at their background, as if thinking about something, his eyes suddenly lit up for a long time. A look of surprise was on his face.

Seeing Li Ran and Xia Houben hurrying in front, Wu Tongtong was puzzled at this time, why would someone want to assassinate the master? And listening to their conversations, it seems that there are many more. Seeing that the master was assassinated, why was Brother Xia Hou so angry? And in his eagerness, he blurted out and shouted Master Ranye?

As for the forbidden technique that Xia Houben cast, she had heard of some, a real master can use the secret technique to kill someone with one blow, and expand the damage it receives beyond the limit of the system's default damage, so that it is possible to cause initial attribute damage, but she had only heard about it before, and thought it was just a joke, but she didn't expect that the advanced big brother Xia Hou could also use this legendary skill.

In the lounge, as Li Ran's official apprentice, Wu Tongtong, who had seized the opportunity, asked all these questions.

Regarding the assassination, Li Ran smiled and said: "As a freelancer, who doesn't have a few enemies, it's not in vain."

Although he knew that Li Ran was avoiding the important and trivial, Wu Tongtong was not good at continuing to ask, and for her asking about the forbidden technique, Li Ran simply gave a sentence When you reach the Lost Killer, it will naturally be, which makes Wu Tongtong really helpless.

"Then why did Brother Xia Hou call you Ran Ye just now?" Seeing that Li Ran's face was not bad, Wu Tongtong continued to ask.

Li Ran replied, "Is there one?" Maybe Xia Hou made a slip of the tongue."

For this explanation, Wu Tongtong pouted with obvious disbelief, which made Li Ran and Xia Houben shake their heads helplessly.

Glancing at Li Ran, Xia Houben opened his mouth and said: "Actually, Tang Zhi and I were both guards of Brother Ran's team before, and we may have been used to drinking, so we blurted out just now when we were in a hurry."

"Guards?" Wu Tongtong repeated in surprise.

But then he saw Xia Houben nodded, but he was shocked in his heart, and he could let people like Brother Xia Hou and Brother Tang act as guards. What kind of team is this, but this can also explain the respectful attitude that Tang Shi and Xia Houben inadvertently showed towards Li Ran.

Seeing Wu Tongtong looking at him with admiration, Li Ran waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't look at me like this, that's all in the past, your master's strength has dropped sharply now, you also saw it just now, I can't even protect myself, and besides, your eldest brother Xia Hou is not a guard now."

"How can there be a big drop in strength? Could it be that you were also injured by someone's initial attribute," Wu Tongtong hurriedly asked.

Li Ran smiled and said: "The meaning is about the same, fortunately, after a few years, it has slowly recovered somewhat, and now I can barely exert the ability of the Seeker."

Oh, Wu Tongtong said that he knew, but then curiously asked about the situation of Li Ran's previous team, and learned that Li Ran's previous team was also nine people, and its captain was named Huang Wentian. (To be continued.) )
