"Captain, we're exposed." An Assassin said. He was an assassin who could use low-level contract magic, and the main task of this operation was to use improved communication magic to maintain contact between his companions - to ensure the location of about twenty people, their lives and deaths, and a very simple code that would not allow for complex phone calls. He felt that seven or eight of his companions had died in one breath, the cause of death was unknown, and the last location was on the third floor, directly below Dong Shangjue's room.

The Assassin Captain's masked lips moved, and he did not speak.

There was no alarm all the way until he reached the third floor of the East Shangjue Castle, which was only a stone's throw away from the target. Although it was impossible to cut Dong Shangjue's neck in his sleep, a head-on battle with a powerful mage was avoided, but the operation was already a great success. A head-on battle or something, too, was expected, and they were prepared for it.

Raise your hand and wave it down.

The Assassins rushed forward with their weapons in hand, and it was time to take off their target's head in one fell swoop. The atmosphere of the assassins around him has changed, the killing intent does not need to be concealed, and there is no need for covert operations, now is the time for a big fight. Most of the Assassins swarmed up to the fourth floor, while others turned to the few remaining jobs in the castle due to the narrow passage of the staircase—there were no more guards left, only maids, clerks, and the like.

The captain of the assassins was about to rush forward together, but was stopped by Shar Pei: "Big brother, I ......"

He glanced coldly at Shar Pei, and his eyes were like looking down at a dog frozen to death on the side of the road.

"You stay here and don't make a mess, and wait for us to retreat." The deeper meaning of that tone is that I don't care about your life or death, but I am told to try to spare your life as much as possible. Either way, this made Shar Pei breathe a sigh of relief.

Shar Pei stood in the midst of the rushing crowd like a rock in the rapids. Andrew and Bamba were dragged downstairs by the big tie-up, ready to retreat. After all, there are 800 people in total, and some people are left on the way to disguise themselves as guards and ensure the way out, and there are currently 400 people, how many seconds can it take to kill a mere target?

It's nothing more than a crispy mage.

Poison with one blow, easy to do.

However, the reality was much more than the Assassins had anticipated.

The first group of Assassins had just rushed to the door of the East Shangjue's room, a wide metal double door covered in red leather. It was supposed to pick the lock, but since it was exposed, I was going to kick it open.

"Huh?"

Suddenly, a pair of tiny peepholes on the door leaf squeezed out of a pair of tiny peepholes with yellow fluorescent aetheric sticky, squirming, and quickly sucked in the front row. The Assassins reacted quickly and tried to dodge backwards, but were blocked by a dense crowd of companions.

After a few seconds of sucking, the Assassins fell to the ground with a thud like disconnected golems.

"Dead ...... He's dead! ”

The Assassin, who confirmed that his companion's snort had subsided, exclaimed in a low voice. The fallen Assassins were unharmed, and it is completely unknown what kind of attack they died from.

Eventually, the ether squeezed out of the peephole of the door changed into a shape, resembling a bird's wings. "It's Dong Shangjue's envoy! Completely exposed! Attack head-on and fight quickly! ”

Before they could finish speaking, they crackled and threw out several bottles of highly corrosive magic potions, and the black mist attached to the door leaf hideously, also hurting the demon, forcing it to pull its wings back. It is a potion made from the decaying magic of the Southern New World, and has a good decaying effect on creatures and structures, similar to the potions used by the assassins to destroy corpses, but it is more advanced and expensive.

Zizi sound.

Seeing that the door was about to be corroded and a large hole had been made. Truth be told, it was slower than expected, and the door was made of insulating materials with very poor mana adaptability, including the humble red leather, which was excellent for defensive magic.

When the time came, the Assassin captain shouted, "Rush in!" ”

Rumble!

Explode.

Behind the door, there was a sudden explosion of fire magic. The door, which had been almost corroded with a large hole, was blown into pieces, flying and killing many of the Assassins who were about to rush in. The Assassin, who was standing a little farther away, was also tossed to the ground by the blast wave. A wall of fire formed around the doorway.

Most of the Assassins were stunned, but there were also those with fast brains who immediately shouted, "Don't be afraid! His fire magic can't be so strong, it must have used props, and he can't use it all the time! ”

You guessed it.

Dong Shangjue's fire magic is only level 2, and holding an expensive staff can produce level 3 power, and just now he threw the fuel bottle at the door and detonated it at the same time.

The Prophet's electro-magic is also level 2, and he uses a staff to hold up to level 3. The people of the Starfall Continent are probably the same as cultivating the magic of other continents, the second order is already very high, and the third order is considered the peak, and the top archmages like Xiang Prophet and Dong Shangjue do not have the extra energy to practice the magic to the highest level.

The mages of Starfall Continent can only learn one type of native magic, but they can also learn several types of overseas side magic, depending on their luck. For example, the Prophet will only be a prophet, the Teleportation Emperor will only be a teleporter, and the Eastern Shangjue will only be a demon. Dong Shangjue has cultivated three elemental magics of the 2nd order fire type, the 2nd order water system, and the 1st order wood type, as well as the two faith magic of the 2nd order light class and the 2nd order life type, plus his own demon type, a total of six kinds of magic, far surpassing other mages.

The Prophet only studied the second-order electrical system. Before the source phoenix mana was sealed, it was a 1st order of light and a 1st order of fire. Concurrent cultivation is such a rule - there is only one type of local magic, and the specific number of foreign magic depends on luck, and the level is very low. This is why the source phoenix, which is shown as a "Heavenly Archmage", is so valued, and is already regarded as the first person to cultivate a variety of high-level elemental magic.

Several Assassins rushed into the wall of fire, and before they could see the figure of Dong Shangjue, they were directly hit by a fireball. The middle man was killed instantly, and the other two or three people were also knocked to the ground by the aftermath of the explosion, and fell into the wall of fire near the doorway, letting out a terrible scream. The worst thing was not to be burned to death, but because he fell and accidentally crushed the poison bottle sewn in his waist pocket, and was corroded alive.

"He's alone, don't be afraid! All on, all on! "The true power of the fireball is that it can only kill a person who hits it directly, but the problem is that the surrounding companions who are knocked over can shatter the poison bottle. The first purpose of not revealing one's identity is now getting in the way.

Suddenly, an Assassin exclaimed, "Fire! The fire has moved! ”

When the door was blown up, a lot of fuel was spilled near the door, forming a wall of fire. Now, using water magic, he manipulated the stagnant water on the ground from a position invisible to the assassins, dragging fuel oil out of the door, causing the fire to spread rapidly. Fire on oil, oil on water, and water under the control of the East Shangjue closing in on the Assassins. Tier 2 water magic doesn't do much damage, so it's more effective to cast it, turning the assassins into burning men in the blink of an eye.

After many assassins died, professional mages squeezed in from behind. Several black-clad and masked impact mages spewed aether from their palms to extinguish the fire—more like a quilt to extinguish the flames.

After losing many people, the Assassins officially stormed the room.

When they entered, they froze. Dong Shangjue in front of him looked old and strong, and he was actively preparing for the battle, which was expected, but ...... The sparrow...... Not counting the tail feathers, who were taller than adult men, spread their wings and almost enveloped the spacious room, with a hideous face and eyes flashing with a blood-red glow, guarding their master.

…… Is his demon so big? How is there a discrepancy with the information?
