Ricky, who guessed the truth, felt a sense of loss in his heart, and anger followed. Anger after being deceived.

As a member of the Tallinn royal family, an important part of the etiquette he learned was how to remember those who died in battle, especially those who died in assassination. So his hatred for the Templar is self-evident. Although the other party has been with him for a year and has shown enough sincerity in the end, this does not mean that he will let go of his prejudices and estrangement, but it also does not mean that he will immediately pursue Momoya with the guards who rushed to him.

He quietly destroyed the letterhead, told them that the building was empty, and then searched for the whereabouts of the other party on his own.

On the other hand, Mercury complained that his companions had exposed the identities of the two while evading the investigation of the guards, and the number of peach arrows could only smirk.

Ratchet's incredible progress caught the attention of the people of Tallinn halfway through the assessment, and the king of Tallinn became suspicious when he learned that he had the most contact with him during the year was a crappy mentor. And send guards to check before the end of the assessment.

Mercury, on the other hand, had been hiding behind the scenes to observe all this, and with the help of the Templar's secret treasure, Silver Edge, she could obtain concealment skills that were no less than those of Momoya, so she rushed home before the guards arrived to urge Momoya to leave.

The guards pounced, and Ricky, who had planned to move freely, was also heavily protected by the king, so he had no choice but to give up.

The turning point came half a month later at the Harvest Celebration, an annual event for the people of Tallinn, where Ricky, who was so talented that everyone took the spotlight that he was given the name "Prince" and the crown of power and status on the king's head.

But in the middle of the celebration, when the king was about to place the crown on top of Ricky's head, a white light flashed, and the figure of Lanaya, or Momoya, suddenly appeared, suddenly hidden, and when it reappeared, the body seemed to swallow the light, and the power of Wan Jun gathered at one point, and with a blood-red light flashed, the crown in the king's hand was shattered.

Both Ricky and the King were stunned by this scene, and the power that burst from Momoya at that moment made them unable to raise any thoughts of resistance.

The moment she caused a commotion, the guards roared and surrounded her, but at the same time, countless ghosts fell from the sky, and pitch-black shadow-like creatures appeared behind everyone, dragging a long pitch-black path on the ground, frantically attacking everyone in their sight.

Even if the guards were well-trained and maintained a good formation in the midst of the turmoil, they could not stop the chaotic crowd. Although the shadows did not cause any real damage, the resulting riot also dispersed the phalanx of the guards, allowing Momoya to escape safely.

The Templar Assassin grabbed Ricky before leaving, taking him with him. Prince Tallinn thought about resisting, but the mentor who "skyrocketed in strength" stunned him with a slap.

When he woke up again, Ricky found himself on the trunk of a large tree, surrounded by dense foliage, pitch black, the only light source was a lighting crystal thrown next to it, and the silhouettes of the two men were reflected on the leaf wall.

It was Momoya and her companion Mercury, or her real name, Phoenix Witch.

Ricky didn't act rashly, but behaved very calmly. He knew very well that he had no chance of winning in front of the two who had torn off his disguise, and he yelled inwardly "You dare to kidnap me, do you know what you are doing" and something like that seemed too stupid and meaningless, and it was better to ask what the other party wanted from him.

His calmness surprised Phoenix Witch a little, and then he didn't stop Momoya's behavior.

"You won, and sure enough, the mentor knows her apprentice best." Huang Wu said. The two seem to make a bet on his reaction when he wakes up, and Ricky's actions happen to give Momoya the win.

Momoya smiled, and then began to explain it all.

She tells Ricky that the Dark Lands were the domain of the Templars long ago, and that the Tallinns had migrated from elsewhere and made a pact with them.

The two agreed: the Tallinns would take the place of the Templars to guard the dark land, and the Templars, accustomed to indefinite dwellings, would give up such a piece of land for the Tallinns to thrive. The former only needs to open the doors of the Holy Land at the right time to receive them. The pact lasted for thousands of years, until a cursed artifact intervened, and Grandpa Ricky's grandfather's generation of Tallinn kings repented.

They refused to open the pitch black and raised their butcher's knives against the Templars.

This unusual behavior soon provoked a revolt from the Templars, but the Tallinns, who were originally not worth mentioning, seemed to be aided by mystical powers, and there was a strange hint that the Templars were no match for them. As a result, the two originally friendly forces became hostile, and the friendly past was gradually forgotten, and only the old hatred remained.

The hatred came to an abrupt end more than 700 years ago, when the Tallinns took out the Templar's base camp next to the ruins of Ambry, leaving no one alive.

Phoenix Witch and Momoya were the two who were sent out before the catastrophe, and they were the only survivors of the Templar, and their mission was to return to the Holy Land, as if there was a mysterious bond calling them, like a mother's call to a wandering child. If it weren't for Momoya's accidental suspicions, the two would have waited for a long time until one day they had a way to open the door to the Holy Land.

Ricky doesn't comment on this bizarre story, and he asks why he wants to kidnap him and break the crown. Momoya said that the "Dominator's Crown" was a cursed artifact, and the previous king, that is, Ricky's father, had worn it for a long time, and had completely become someone else's puppet, even if he took off the crown, it would not have the slightest effect, so he would be so relieved to take off the crown and try to put it on his head, she did so to save him.

After hearing all this, Ricky sneered: "A cursed artifact, you can break it at the touch of your hand, this story is funny. But he didn't want to be slapped and slapped to the ground by Huang Wu as soon as he finished speaking.

The long-legged Oriental beauty grabbed him by the neck and lifted him up in front of Momoya, who was a little dodgy, and couldn't help but tear open one of her sleeves, revealing her shriveled arm under the elbow.

It has a golden sword tattoo on it, like yellow pigment applied to the dry bark of a tree.

"Keep your dog's eyes open and see clearly, this is the greatest treasure of the Templar's power, we call it the 'Holy Sword Seal', and the wielder will have immeasurable power, but it will also be cursed. Do you know how much life force she depleted by what she described as a 'one-shot'? Don't take your ignorance as the capital of willfulness and suspicion, if it weren't for your stupid mentor begging bitterly, the old lady would care about your life or death? ”

Phoenix Witch's words made Ricky speechless, this future legendary assassin was just a young boy at this time, guilt and uneasiness were suddenly intertwined, he didn't understand why the other party wanted to save himself, just because of just one year together?

As if seeing his doubts, Momoya put on a cloak and covered his ugly arms and explained, "Although I have been calling you a stupid student all day long, there is no doubt that you are the most talented assassin I have ever met, and you may become the most powerful assassin in Heru in the future." But again, if you're controlled by that crown and become a puppet, you're going to be the sharpest sword in someone else's hand, and I don't want my students to be reduced to cold weapons. A year of getting along with each other has made me understand that you are a kind person, although you have a very bad personality, but your nature is not bad. ”

"But you don't hate the Tallinns?" Ricky couldn't help but ask.

Momoya shook her head. "Having lived in Tallinn for so long, I know that hatred has nothing to do with those ordinary people, and it has nothing to do with you. There are many things that deserve to be perpetuated, and hatred is not one of them. That's why I chose to save you, because if you become a weapon, it will bring even more turmoil, and thus break this peace. ”

Momoya's words and actions planted a seed in Ricky's heart, and although he was always skeptical of the story, he could feel the sincerity of the other party.

Ricky is then sent away, and to prove his innocence, Momoya returns to him the desolation he stole from the Tallinn treasury. Ricky returned to the palace with the booty, falsely claiming that he had wounded the Assassin and escaped safely, without arousing the king's suspicion.

At this point, Ricky paused, took out the white sword Yaksha, and stroked the emerald hilt as if caressing the skin of a lover.

"Later, I believed Momoya's story. It seems that the shattering of the crown did have a great effect, and the old king went mad. He began to be madly suspicious of everything around him, and he began to feel that everyone was a usurper, especially me. ”

Mu Yan's heart sank, and the description in Ricky's mouth reminded him of a person, a madman who also lived in other people's descriptions.

"Then he threatened me as a prince to check for potential threats for him, to take those who might rebel before him, to kill them one by one with a recast whirlwind, and to warn that that would be the fate of traitors."

"At first, I didn't say no out of respect for my father, but then I realized that I couldn't say no.

"If I refuse, I will be seen as a sign of rebellion and rebellion, and I will not only be imprisoned, but many more people will be affected. The adventure buddies I once befriended, the chefs I liked, the blacksmith shops I frequented, those would all be considered 'traitorous allies'. I don't know how many similar tasks I have performed, but I never thought that one day it would fall on my head. ”

The people of Tallinn breathed a sigh of relief and closed their eyes, as if in silence for the souls of those who had died unjustly in the whirlwind of extinction.

"Until one day," he said, "he asked me to take Sif there." ”

"Who's Siv?"

"Uno's mother, my grumpy sister. The madman said that Sif couldn't be his daughter, that her skin color, her height, wasn't what a Tallinn person should be. The corners of Ricky's mouth twitched, and he said in a mocking tone, "The people of Tallinn are known for their unity, and this unity comes from blood, so we value family affection more than anything else, but at that moment, I really had the idea of sticking this sword in his heart." Even if he is my most beloved father.

"It's a good thing I didn't, and I later learned that it was the same weapon Momoya had used. That's a real stain. ”

Ricky sighed and continued, "I refused to do anything to Siph, he asked me three times if I chose to betray him, I threw Yaksha on the ground and said, 'Please take this sword, it is stained with too much blood of my clansmen to bear', and he tied me up.

He put a whirlwind of gloom against my neck and asked me if I felt the ghosts of the traitors begging for mercy and fear. Seriously, it was creepy at first, especially when I thought I had captured all these people. But I quickly got used to it, and it occurred to me that, just like this weapon, I was a weapon in someone else's hand, and even if there was fear, it was afraid of me. ”

The Tallinns took out the loot they had taken from Gondor.

"See, like I said, it's still afraid of me in the end." The Tallinn flicked the blood-red blade of the dark blade, stirring up the wraiths above, grimacing their faces and dancing their claws, but they couldn't get any close to him.

"Ironically, the weapon was later stolen by the bounty hunter Gondor, who used it to cut the king's neck, bringing the matter to a happy end."

"How did you escape?"

"It's a cliché story." Ricky shrugged. "Seve was brought in the night I was put in the dungeon, and it looked like the madman was going to kill both of us in one go. But at this time, Momoya appeared, and she escaped with our brother and sister. When I asked her why she did this, she first replied to me, 'Why do you have so many questions?' and then added that 'opening up the dark land may require royal blood', and then she said 'it's not because of the master-apprentice relationship'......"

"You don't even notice this kind of tsundere character, it's so dull." Mu Yan laughed.

The Tallinn people glanced at Surya, who was still confused because he didn't understand Heru, and didn't even have the heart to complain about someone.

The word sluggishness coming out of your mouth is really not convincing at all.

"It was during those days in hiding that I learned about her past life, such as the fact that before the fall of the Templar, Sanhua and Yaksha were her most common weapons. At the same time, the Phoenix Witch also has a long sword called Radiance, which burns with flames all around it, and can even scorch the souls of nearby enemies, but because these things will reveal their identity, they stay in the temple and do not take them with them.

"Speaking of the people of the Templar organization, it's weird. The group seemed to be able to foresee their fate and not resist the impending catastrophe. I thought that what she said about 'letting go of hatred' was really open, but later I realized that she really didn't know 'hatred'.

"It was also during that time that I learned her secret technique of concealing light, but it was only a few scratches of the skin, such as melting into the light and so on. Unlike her, she can manipulate this kind of thing, use it to block or attack, and even use it to hide, which is different from us escaping into the shadow world. Rather, it is like a layer of camouflage on the outside of the body, so there is no slightest fluctuation and it is not easy to be noticed. ”

"Are you talking about this kind of thing?"

Mu Yan stretched out his hand, and the crystals that had been peeled off from Surya's body were suspended in the air.

Ricky looked at it carefully for a moment, then raised his right hand as if by magic, his right hand turning inch by inch from between his fingers into the most primitive light.

Instead of suddenly exploding just now, it shattered and decomposed little by little, and the glowing specks flew in the air like fireflies, turning into a substance like that crystal.

Surya was stunned, and although she didn't know what kind of story the Tallinn people were telling because of the language, the scene in front of her was exactly the same as the demonstration that Mr. Shans had taught her about "Flame Attack".

At the same time, Mu Yan was stunned, he found that the scene in front of him was very familiar.

In the game, characters go offline, disappear from the battlefield after their health reaches zero, and enter the arena after the queue time ends, all of which are based on this lighting effect......

The shock was so great that it even made him feel the urge to swear.

What exactly is a Templar TMD?
