Chapter 12: Continuous Sneak Attacks
As the last believer in the line passed in front of him, Raven adjusted his body to its best.
"Is there anyone chasing after you?"
"Not yet."
Silently waiting for the last of the run, the Black Erosion Cultist finished saying this, Raven tapped the soft mud under his feet with his toes, and ghostly came to the left rear of the cultist, his left hand slammed down the disciple's mouth, and the obsidian thorn of his right hand broke through the defenseless disciple's Mai like lightning and stabbed him into his left back.
The sharp tip of the blade delicately avoided the shoulder blades, piercing the muscles in his back like a piece of paper, crossing half of his left lung and into his heart. Blood, as if fleeing in the dark. In an instant, a surge of blood rushed into his lungs, and he struggled violently because of the sharp pain in his body. In less than five seconds, his body collapsed from the loss of life, and his expression was forever fixed in that moment of pain, confusion, and consternation.
"Backstab attack successful! Damage×2"
"Hit to death! Backstab attacks turn into lethal attacks! Adds 20 bonus damage. ”
"Death to the target! Earn 100 Kill XP! ”
"The Obsidian Thorn Forbidden Effect triggers, creating a 5-second silence effect within a radius of one meter from the piercing site."
Raven didn't look at those flickering battle records, the moment the blade entered his body, the former god-level assassin knew from experience that this guy was dead. Combined with the silence effect of the obsidian thorn, this cultist died silently. dragged the corpse aside, and it took less than ten seconds before and after.
The fastest way for an assassin to kill is, of course, to cut his throat and then leave the body to kill and bury it.
If the enemy only has five or six people combined, it is natural to do so.
If you want to assassinate a team of more than 10 people in overall strength in a row, and you can play throat cutting as soon as you get started, it is called death. This is a semi-enclosed corridor-type confined space, and the amount of bloodletting caused by cutting the throat has not killed a few people, as long as the nose can still breathe, people can smell blood.
Of course, it is against the sky to ban words, but only sound can be banned, and the sense of smell is another matter.
Relying on continuous backstabbing and forbidden words, Raven quietly did out the last three people, and from here, Raven no longer dragged away the corpses but laid them down on the spot.
It is inexplicable that so many people are missing as long as one person turns back.
The action suddenly changed from stealth to efficiency.
Another one covered his mouth, and the obsidian thorn in his right hand pierced through his temple with unmistakable accuracy, and the sharp tip of the blade stirred the soft brain into a pulp, killing the fourth one in an instant.
Putting down the corpse, he continued to pounce on the fifth, this one because he was running with his head down, Raven's left hand was unchanged, and the dagger in his right hand was directly inserted into the chin, along the right side of the cervical vertebra diagonally upwards into the brain.
Gently put him down in the previous pounce position, and his feet accelerated to the sixth.
The sixth one was nearly two heads shorter than Raven, and his strange gait caused his head to shake constantly when running, and the small round head gave people the feeling of being stabbed and flicking a knife. For the sixth person, whether it is a backstab or a head stab, it is a bit inappropriate.
Such a thin body is estimated to be strong and low. Raven chose not to use a dagger, but directly covered his mouth with his left hand and crushed the opponent's throat with his right hand.
It was an adventure, but Raven was right. I don't know if it's the son of a big man or what, anyway, the other party's tenacity test failed, and then Raven's fingertips came with the touch of his throat being pinched.
The seventh man, perhaps in charge of the little one's care, heard something inappropriate, and he stopped and made a gesture to look back from the right.
Raven lightning pounces!
Because of his body and angle, Raven chose to stretch out his left hand to slam the opponent's chin, and at the same time pulled out the dagger and stabbed it through the throat into his jaw and directly to the brain in the high-speed movement.
When you put down the corpse after you have it, keep your jaw firmly against your neck to minimize the spillage of blood.
Unfortunately, something finally happened at this time.
Maybe it was because he found that there were no hurried footsteps behind him, or maybe he was purely afraid, anyway, when Raven had just finished the seventh, the eighth guy turned around.
In the dim light, he saw his parishioners covering their mouths, their eyes bulging to show that he was in excruciating pain.
The eighth guy immediately tore his throat and shouted: "There is an enemy ......"
He stopped shouting half of his voice, only to see Lei Wenhua make a ghostly flash of lightning, and the black dagger carried a wave of qi, stabbing him in the face.
Raven pounced and stabbed the guy in the throat with a dagger, but unfortunately, the whole team was always alarmed.
There are six more enemies! The strongest six!
Facing each other, Raven's only fate is death!
The Black Iron Warrior and Fallen Arcane Knight Rudy was the quickest to react.
When Ludy turned around with his sword in his hand and crossed the three of them to see the movement of Raven's hand, his face instantly lost its blood.
Because Raven punched on an inconspicuous gap, only Ludy knew what Raven wanted to do - Raven wanted to activate the collapse trap on the tunnel, which was originally used by Ludy to stop the pursuers, but why could the trap be triggered here?
The crack in the crack snaked into the fragile ceiling in less than a tenth of a second, and the ceiling collapsed, and the boulder fell as expected, with Ludi as the center, and the ceiling of nearly 30 meters in front and behind all collapsed.
Before he could even scream, or even protect the priest Fakarin, Ludy threw himself into the corner of the tunnel.
In the face of tons of boulders falling from the head, any resistance is futile. The only way to survive is to huddle in a corner and pray that the boulder doesn't fall on your head.
A burst of flying sand and rocks, choking sand and dust, made it difficult for the survivors who were lucky enough to escape the first wave of rockfalls. They coughed loudly as they ushered in Raven's mending knife that pounced on him again.
Raven's job is easier than whack-a-mole. With the help of dark vision, he reaped life with ease like a grim reaper.
Listening to the screams in his ears, Ludy struggled to climb out of the pile of rubble, but failed, and a one-ton boulder crushed half of his body. The Black Eclipse Sacrifice Fakarin was hit by a stone, and his brain splattered on the spot.
It wasn't that Ludy didn't hear the screams coming from behind him, he really couldn't get out, not to mention that the sword he was proud of was also buried in the rubble.
Crawling over his left shoulder, he sensed the damn assassin pounce.
"Burning Hands!"
Without even looking, Ludy's free left hand suddenly glowed with a blazing light, and the arcane energy quickly formed a burning palm. Instinctively, Rudy shot the one-ring spell in the direction of the enemy's lunge.
The blazing flames erupted in a cone shape, sweeping through everything it touched. Everything in front of him was suddenly empty.
Hit?
In the firelight, the people who saw the pounce didn't even have time to scream, and flew back upside down on fire.
As he was rejoicing, there was a sudden sharp pain in his left hand, and he knew that his tendons had been broken.
Glancing at the corpse that was thrown by Raven just now, it was already a roast pig, and gently pressed the dagger against the back of Ludy's neck, Raven said slowly: "I'm sorry to make you happy." A mature assassin would never rush to the side of an arcane knight. ”
The guys who got in the way have finally been killed!
Raven gasped for air, his left hand wiping his sweat, barely holding the Obsidian Thorn's right hand.
It just so happened that there was only one of the most likely breakthrough characters left who did not die.
Raven didn't expect to ask anything from the sacrificial mouth, and those who could be sacrificed must be die-hard and brainless, even if they were executed, they couldn't ask anything. This Ludy just happened, and I heard it just now, that he was actually a mercenary.
A dagger was pointed at Ludy's vital point, and Raven, who was hiding behind him, deliberately said in a rough voice: "Dear Lord Guardian Knight, if you don't want to be like him, please answer me something." ”
Raven said as he broke the sacrificial's head, allowing Ludy to admire the remains of his former master's half-head.
While admiring, Raven gently slid his fingernails over Rudy's fairly handsome face, his ears, and his throat......
The only jaw that remained, the hideously twisted limbs, and the blood all over his body, and the fingers that slid back and forth over him reminded Ludy that the man behind him with a dagger against him was the demon who had killed all his acquaintances!
Ludy, who was also half crushed in a pile of rubble, was originally a weak-willed fallen paladin, and he had no anti-interrogation training, let alone a die-hard loyalist of the Black Eroded Church, so he easily collapsed.
"I say! I say! I must tell you what I know. ”
Raven took out the portrait of Punk and handed it to Fakarin, lighting a torch as he lit it.
By the light of the torches, Ludy shuddered at the sight of the portrait.
"Do you know who posted this thing?"
“…… It was the main priest Fakarin. ”
Raven could feel Ludy's body tremble, "Tell me, what's going on?" ”
Fakarin hesitated. But Raven's dagger suddenly pierced into a point. The stinging pain in his neck immediately caused Fakarin to scream: "I say! I say! This is a task given directly by the dragon god with an oracle. If we want to kill three people by accident in the City of Gold, this is one of them. ”
"Three? Which three? ”
"The list is in the arms of Fakarin!"
Raven pulled out a well-folded secret document from the side of Fakarin, and sure enough, there were three names on it, except for Rain, the other two were Frank Aristo and Liber Madis. Raven searched the deepest part of his memory and found that he had never heard these two names even in his previous life in the game.
"Who are they?" The dagger in his hand couldn't help but be handed forward a little more.
Ludy was in pain, and there was a cry in his voice: "I really don't know why the dragon god let us kill these three inexplicable guys." One is a commoner boy everywhere, another is a third-rate blacksmith, and the other is an apothecary apprentice. It didn't take much effort to kill them all anyway. ”
"You really don't know who they are? Or what do they have in common? ”
"I don't know! The only thing I know is that they're all made up of prophecy. ”
All three in a row were searched by prophecy? That's a lot of money!
Asked again and again, but could not get anything out of Ludy's mouth.
Seeing that Raven had plans to kill people, Ludy also panicked: "Don't kill me, I still have a treasure to exchange my life." ”
Ludy said this, but Raven saw the weakness in his flickering eyes, and thought about it, the fallen paladin had to face the pursuit of the paladin group, how could he have that spare time to bury good things elsewhere?
"Nope! I've said what I know! You can't kill me! Killing me will only get your hands dirty...... I have a daughter......" Ludy kept begging for mercy.
