Griston City, Garden District.

A large black hound sniffs the streets, followed by the Dark Elf mage Holm and a group of Dark Elf assassins.

Tracking was a careful task, and the speed was naturally not up to it, and a full hour passed before a group of dark elves tracked Link to the dock where the Griss River branch had entered.

After arriving here, there was an accident, and the smell turned out.

The Earth Hound kept circling around on the docks, and let out a low 'woo-woo' roar, and it looked helpless.

"My lord, he must have gotten on the boat, what should I do?" Terry asked.

"Nonsense!" Holm snorted coldly, stood by the dock, looked at the river and thought, and soon, he had a clue: "Go, look down the river, he can't be on the river all the time, he will definitely come ashore somewhere." ”

"My lord, what if he goes upstream?" Terry hesitated.

Holm thought that this warrior was a retarded mind, and glanced at him: "There are a hundred times more magicians who can't know how to row than they can, do you think we should look downstream or upstream?" ”

"Downstream."

Terry was convinced, indeed, that rowing against the current was a work of skill as well as strength, and that he could not be a warrior, let alone a physically weak magician.

A group of dark elves came ashore and made their way down the river, ignoring the rioters scurrying around the garden area. In fact, no one dared to mess with them.

After walking for about twenty minutes, the Earth Hound let out a low roar, then sharply quickened its pace, and it began to sniff on the ground again.

"Found it!" Holm was also happy in his heart, tracking was actually a gamble, no one knew if he would win before he found anyone, and now, he won the bet.

Holm could clearly feel the look of admiration in the eyes of the Dark Elf assassins around him, and he enjoyed it.

Unconsciously, his back straightened and his head was higher.

This is the entrance to the business district, the streets are clearly depressed, although there are a few scurrying figures, but there are far fewer than in the garden area, the smell is greatly reduced, and the speed of the earth hound's tracking is a little faster.

Another hour, and it was already one o'clock in the morning, and Holm and the Assassins stood at the entrance to the Old Town.

"The situation is not good, he went to the old city, is he going to save the female leader of MI3?" Holm's brow furrowed, he knew that the female leader was also the main target of the Assassins, and unlike the others, the request for this female leader was to be captured alive.

"Pick up the pace!" Holm exclaimed, he had a premonition that something was wrong.

The Old Town was even less crowded, and the Earth Hound picked up speed again, and after about ten minutes, Holm was near Fountain Square.

The situation in the square took the Dark Elves by surprise.

The buildings on one side of the square burned almost completely, leaving only ruins and green smoke rising from them, indicating that the fire had just been extinguished.

There were more than a dozen bloody corpses lying in the square, although some were difficult to distinguish, but judging by their size and fragments of clothes, they were all dark elves.

Holm saw that there were still many traces of water on the ground, and he looked closer, and felt the water with the back of his hand, the water was cold and cold, and some of them were unmelted ice slag.

"The power of magic is a secondary ice storm, he's been here!" Home's brows furrowed tightly, not only because the other party had visited, but also because he felt the power of high-level magic.

Secondary Ice Storm, Level 2 Magic, this young magician turned out to be a Level 2 magician, not a level 1 magician as he imagined.

This level is already the same as him, and the situation is a little tricky.

However, Holm is very confident in his magic: "The other party is very young, he has less accumulation, maybe he has mastered this magic, but he definitely has no super magic skills, if I play against him, I can definitely beat him!" ’

He has been immersed in magic for many years and has his own unique understanding of magic, which is the source of his self-confidence.

There was a sound of footsteps behind him, and when he turned his head, it was Terry, who came with a Dark Elf Assassin, and Holm had an amazing memory, and he recognized at a glance that this assassin had not followed the previous tracking team, that is, the other party should have witnessed the battle in Fountain Square.

"What's going on here?" Holm asked.

The assassin's face still had a deep palpitation on his face: "It's a magician, terrible magic!" He summoned the Ice Storm, and he killed the leader! With Anne. Abel fled. The Dark Lady is on top, it's terrifying! (Lady Dark, another name for Rose the Spider)

"In which direction?" Holm asked.

"I don't know, they ended up going to the tavern. We chased them in, but we didn't find their shadows, and we suspected that there was a secret passage inside, but we didn't find them. The Assassin looked helpless, and there was a hint of fear, this matter was messed up, and he would definitely be punished severely.

"There must be a secret passage in the tavern!" Holm looked at the tavern in the distance, then at the terrestrial Hound with a height of two meters at his shoulders, and suddenly cursed: "Damn the tavern! ”

The Earth Hound was too big to squeeze into the tavern.

However, Holm was not out of the question, he pondered the countermeasures: "It is very difficult to dig a secret passage, it can't be too long, and it doesn't make sense, two or three hundred meters should already be the limit. ’

Thinking of this, he said to the assassin, "How many of you are left?" ”

"76 people." The Assassin replied.

"Where are they now?"

"They've all scattered to find someone."

"Good." Holm paced a few steps in place, and suddenly a thought popped into his mind: "Why do I have to chase after their ass?" What is the most likely thing for them to do when they escape? Wouldn't it be nice if I was stuck in front of me? ”

Then the new problem arrives. Where are opponents most likely to go?

As soon as this question is asked, the answer is immediately forthcoming.

"The other party is most likely to go to the city guard barracks, once they take control of the command of the barracks, they will not just escape, but directly turn the tables! No, you can't let that happen, damn it! ”

Holm's heart was terrified, and he found that the young magician, and Anne. It doesn't matter whether Abel escapes or not, the important thing is to ensure that the state of chaos in the city guard camp is guaranteed.

Otherwise, once that magician, and the leader of MI3, entered the barracks, it would be a real boost. The dark elves who infiltrated the city had no place to die!

"Gather your men and go to Halls Castle now!"

Halls Castle is the city lord of Hausmin. The family castle of the Earl of Halls is located in the westernmost valley of the city, at the northernmost point of the Old Town.

At this time, the city lord, Earl Hasmin, was finished, and he was too lustful, which became his fatal flaw.

Three hours earlier, he had died in his bed, killed by a beautiful Terran assassin whom the Dark Elves had carefully cultivated for more than a decade. In fact, all the people inside Halls Castle have been killed.

And the city guard camp is near Halls Castle, the city guard commander has been poisoned a day ago, and the officers are also dead, at this time the city guard is completely leaderless, maybe someone will come out to try to restore order, but these people are not enough to pose a threat to the dark elves.

But now, whether it's that magician, or Anne. Abel are all weighty figures, so they must be stopped.

Whether it is a dark elf or a Terran, the status of a mage is very high, and although Holm is not the titular commander of the operation, when the commanders are finished, he naturally becomes the leader of the team.

The Dark Elf Assassins found the backbone, and in less than ten minutes, they were assembled, plus the Assassins brought out by Holm from the Academy of Magic, the total number of people exceeded 150.

This number already accounts for more than half of the total number of assassins who have infiltrated Griston City, and there is also a level 2 mage in the lead, which is already a very powerful force.

"Hurry up! While it's still too late! Holm roared, snapped his fingers, and the Earth Hound fell to his back, and the Hound began to gallop at high speed.

The Dark Elf Assassins ran after the hounds.

The Earth Hound was fast, and soon, Holm left the Assassins behind, a dangerous move, but he didn't care, he believed that he was absolutely capable of dealing with the magician, even if he had fellow Assassins by his side!

The Dark Elves, who were bent on intercepting Link and Anne, did not notice that during the time they had gathered, a petite figure watched them quietly in a remote corner of Fountain Square.

It was the assassin Jasmine who Link rescued halfway, and after undergoing elemental healing, she rested for nearly half an hour, and she had regained most of her strength.

"Oh no, the captain and that magician are in danger, I need to inform them immediately!"

Jasmine sneaked into the tavern, went to the underground cellar, skillfully found the secret passage, and hurried all the way forward, and in a few moments, she appeared at the exit of the house.

The young couple in the house looked at her in amazement.

"Has the captain been here?" Jasmine asked urgently.

The young husband nodded: "I've been here, but I just left, and I didn't walk for more than three minutes." ”

"In that direction?"

"I don't know, but it's going north." The young man wasn't so sure, and as a peripheral member of MI3, he never asked much.

"Understood. Seal the secret passage now, and if anyone comes out of it, it will be an enemy! Jasmine said loudly.

The young couple nodded hurriedly.

Jasmine opened the door and chased out, she probably knew the path the captain would take, and hurried all the way, when she entered an alley, a figure suddenly rushed out, and a dagger was pressed against her throat, but then the dagger was taken back, and a familiar voice of surprise came: "Jasmine, is it you?" ”

Jasmine suddenly breathed a sigh of relief: "Captain, I have very important information!" ”
