From its birth to the present, Nirod has experienced a long time of nearly 200 years.

100 years ago, he achieved great combat skills, and then left the Shadow Valley and entered the continent to break through, experiencing a total of 59 major battles. He had infiltrated the Emperor's bedchamber, assassinated the archbishop of the Cult of the Flame God, participated in the First and Second Great Wars, and experienced melee between the northern states.

Every time, he was able to rely on his superb combat skills and crush the speed of mortals on the battlefield like a fish in water. In the eyes of his enemies, he is the spokesman of death, the seeker of life in the shadows.

He had never experienced true despair.

Even in the face of the unfathomable tree demon Donassis, although he was completely suppressed by the other party, in fact, he did not use all his strength. In his opinion, if he used his ability to press the bottom of the box, he would at least be able to escape from Donassis.

But now, a siege war launched against mortals has left him with a lost soul.

There were no street lamps on the side of the road in Nilogaard, and there was no more noise of mortals in the buildings, and the night was dark and pitch black. The wind was also very cold, and his face was cold and cold.

At his feet, the corpse of the high-level werewolf quickly lost its vitality, rapidly becoming cold and stiff, and just now, this werewolf was still alive.

In this werewolf, Nirod seemed to see his own future.

'Where the hell is that guy with the cold gun hiding?' ’

'What the hell is that flaming whip?' ’

'How do I get out of here now?' If I run out directly, will I be attacked by that guy with a cold gun? ’

All the questions were unanswered, and the methods of attack used by his opponent were beyond his knowledge, and he had never seen such a terrifying method. The only thing he could do now was to keep the status quo, curled up, and hide behind the broken wall without moving.

However, his opponent was clearly not prepared to let him go.

"Nirod, I know you're hiding behind a wall! You now have two choices, first, come out from behind the wall yourself, take the initiative to surrender, and I will spare you from dying! Second, I'll beat you out, but life or death depends on your own luck! ”

It was a woman who was shouting, and Nirod knew the voice. He also knew that her name was Anne and that she was a mutant stalker. That night, the magician Lawson forcibly broke into the Double Moon House just to save her!

He really regretted it now, he knew that this woman was so powerful, he knew that she would cause such a big trouble, he should have broken her neck when he was in Shuangyueju!

It's a pity that there is no regret medicine in the world.

"Nirod, my patience is limited! I'll count to 5, and if you don't come out, I'm going to do it! ”

The voice came again, and Nirod listened with hatred and fear, he could not predict at all what means his opponent would use to attack him, was it a bomb? Or is it the flaming whip that can tear apart all the iron orcs?

“5！”

“4！”

“3！”

The woman was so fast that she didn't give Nirod time to think, and judging by her voice, the other seemed to have great confidence, as if she had completely eaten him.

"What to do? Surrender?"

“2！”

Nirod was in a hurry, and a thought suddenly came to him: "Donassis the Tree Demon has already gone to the docks, and there is a good chance that that Lawson is also in the docks...... With the means of the Tree Demon, he can definitely kill Lawson! I'll give in now, and when the Dryad comes, he will naturally come to my rescue! ”

“1！”

The moment the voice fell, Nirod heard a 'beep~~~~' sound from the parapet wall of the academy, the sound was very peculiar, he lived 200

I have never heard such a terrible sound in years.

Immediately after, he felt the debris splash behind the stone wall against which he was leaning, and the whole stone wall was groaning in pain, as if it was about to collapse at any moment.

Nirod was so beaten that he lost control and yelled, "I surrender!" I give up! I give up! ”

Death's roar immediately stopped, and Anne's voice rang out, "Come out." Put your hands on your head, move as slowly as possible, and don't let me misunderstand your intentions! ”

Feeling a hint of humiliation in his heart, Nirod gritted his teeth and complied.

With his head in his hands, he stepped out from behind the broken wall.

Just a moment after his body walked out of the broken wall, Nirod suddenly saw a faint point of light flashing on a tall tower about 50 meters behind the parapet, but there was no sound, and he was stunned: 'What's the situation?' ’

The next moment, he felt something hit his right leg hard, and a sharp pain that he had never experienced before hit his soul like a flood.

It was only then that Nirod heard a muffled sound of 'bang~' in the distance, it was a musket!

That's when he realized: 'Oh shit! It's the one who put the cold gun! ’

When he looked down, he saw a fist-sized bloody hole in the front of his thigh, which was transparent from front to back, and blood was shooting out of the wound frantically.

"Ah~~~~~~~h

Holding his right leg, Nirod fell to the ground screaming.

Pain!

It hurts!

For a moment, he even wanted to die!

It took a moment for Nirod to regain his strength, and he roared angrily, "Bastard! You're cheating! ”

Anne's voice came from the parapet: "Nirod, you are running too fast, and I don't worry about you on one leg." ”

"Ah~~~~~ you bastard! You're a scoundrel! You stinky, you wait for me, I'll find a tin orc to ......tie you to bed and you sooner or later," Nirod scolded, clutching his legs. His right leg was limp and twisted, and the bone must have been broken, the worst injury he had ever suffered in his life, and perhaps the whole leg would be ruined.

Before he could finish speaking, Nirod suddenly felt his left leg slam violently, and then, he heard a 'bang~' gunfire in his ears.

His heart shook violently, and when he looked down, he saw a huge bloody hole in his left leg and knee, and only a layer of blood skin was left between his calf and thigh.

If there is still hope for his right leg to recover, then his left leg is directly scrapped!

"Ah~~~~~~" Nirod cried out so loudly that he could not say anything.

Anne's voice came: "Nirod, this is your punishment!" ”

"Ah~~~~" Nirod only screamed.

At this point, this monster siege is completely over.

Anne stepped out of the tower and waved to Musketeer Captain Grod, "Shoot a few flares into the sky, sweep the battlefield, and get that Shadow Demon Assassin back." Be careful, take your hands with you, keep your distance from him, and if that guy dares to resist, shoot him in the head! ”

"Yes, Captain!" Grod replied excitedly, turned around and started busy with his teammates.

Anne's spirit was also very high, in this battle, the opponent was more than 600 ghouls, 9 high-level monsters were almost wiped out by them, the opponent's commanders were captured, and only two of their own side were killed.

In the past, she didn't dare to think of this kind of thing, let alone high-level monsters, even to deal with ordinary monsters, she had to risk her life a lot. Even those powerful stalker masters, who have fought all their lives, have killed less than one-fifth of the monsters they have achieved tonight.

But now, with their artifact-like muskets and the sincere cooperation of the people, they have accomplished an incredible feat.

Rosen didn't lie to me! ’

She strode towards the fortress behind the parapet, and she wanted to report the news of the victory to the rear as soon as possible, so that everyone could share the joy in her heart.

The distance between the parapet and the fort was less than 100 meters, but Anne felt that the road was very long, and she walked faster and faster, and at last she almost trotted.

Finally, she walked to the door of the fortress hall.

The people in the hall spotted her at the first time.

Even though the fighting was fierce at the front, the people in the rear did not stop working. In the hall, women, men, the elderly, and even children were extremely busy with their hands assembling, and they were all busy assembling bullets.

When Anne appeared, everyone paused, turned their heads, and looked at her with hopeful eyes.

Anne looked around the hall, and when she saw worried and expectant faces, she suppressed the excitement in her heart and said as calmly as possible: "We won, and we have killed all the monsters!" ”

In an instant, a deep joy appeared on everyone's faces, and cheers suddenly filled the hall.

In the crowd, Vincent put down the bullet casing in his hand, raised his hand and slapped the old businessman Johnson beside him: "Old man, you can sleep peacefully now." ”

Johansen touched his beard and laughed: "The fight just now was so intense, I'm really a little worried that something will happen." Now it seems that I really underestimate the power of these muskets, hahahaha~~~"

On the other side, Anne walked through the crowd again to the door of the alchemy room on the second floor of the fortress, knocked on the door, and the door opened, and it was Lilith who opened the door.

"How's it going?" Lilith asked with a smile. The cheers of the hall had already brought the news of the victory to her.

Anne laughed, "We almost wiped out all the monsters, and captured the lead Phantom Assassin Nirod alive. ”

Lilith was slightly surprised: "Even Nirod has been captured, what a perfect victory!" ”

Anne sighed softly: "It's not perfect, our side unfortunately killed two warriors in battle. ”

Lilith was quite satisfied with the damage, but she could understand Anne's regret, and was about to offer words of comfort when there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps in the hallway.

But don't be surprised. ’

Lilith and Anne both felt tight, and they both turned to look at the staircase.

A musket warrior trotted up, and he said breathlessly, "Captain, Miss Linde, Master Rosen has returned, and brought back many, many people. ”

"Many, much, how much?" Lilith was startled.

"I can't count, there must be thousands!" The musketeer made an exaggerated gesture.

"That's really that, huh?" Anne thought it was incredible.

Lilith clapped her hands happily: "A clean victory, and so many people are coming." Haha, now it's time to rebuild Nilogaard! ”
