Chapter 49: The Silent Assassin's Buster
Several back and forth were thrilling, and time had only passed for a moment.
After using the three methods, Kaneshiro immediately kicked his leg backwards and slammed into the car door, and rolled over the carriage from the other side of the carriage.
Hurriedly looking back, the silent assassin's left arm had recovered.
The second-level surge tremor is too ineffective against second-order professionals above level four, especially those like the Silent Assassin who have strengthened their spells to fight the epidemic.
The Silent Assassin flicked his wrist, and his crossbow was already attached to another bolt.
Jin Cheng didn't hesitate, and immediately turned around the car door, disappearing from the silent assassin's vision.
But before he could take a step, he turned around and squatted down, holding the magic book on the palm of his hand, and the mood fluctuations caused by the sudden attack were all subsided in an instant, and the whole person entered a void.
It's a mentality honed by countless battles, and he can always face the most difficult challenges with the best fit.
What he needed most now was complete composure, because he needed to listen quietly and wait with his ears for the signs.
The Silent Assassin had already used the Shadow Strike, but not yet the Silent Assassin.
It was only a split second, and the sign was instant, a sharp grinding sound, a sudden rush of the silent assassin on the floor of the carriage.
"Surge tremor!"
The second surge trembled without hesitation and was released into the empty space in front of him.
The figure of the Silent Assassin sprang out of the carriage at this moment, his body writhing in an odd position, his frozen right arm still held upright, making it necessary for him to twist his left arm to the right in order to aim his crossbow in the direction of Jincheng.
It's just that after he rushed out of the carriage, he didn't find Jincheng's figure in the field of vision for the first time. At the same time, a paralyzing sensation had already hit his lower body. Jin Cheng predicted that what he was aiming at this time was his legs.
"Archery!"
Taking advantage of the moment when the silent assassin was slightly distracted, Jin Cheng once again disarmed his crossbow in the same way. Then the Silent Assassin fell to the ground, and the power surge paralyzed his legs, preventing him from landing safely, though the effect was short-lived.
"Run!" Jin Cheng shouted loudly, reminding the steward to flee, and at the same time, he also spread his legs and ran in the direction of the tower group.
The second-order Silent Assassins, their crossbows can be stored with three arrows to quickly reload through the mechanism, and if Jincheng does not consume these three arrows, he will not be able to escape in front of the Silent Assassin's eyes.
His strategic purpose is clear, disarm the Silent Assassin's ranged attacks, control his movement speed, and ...... All that's left is to run.
After all, he was a second-order silent assassin, the nemesis of the arcane mage. And Jin Cheng was only a third-level arcane mage, and he didn't have the confidence to win a battle until he mastered a powerful second-order spell.
The true sense of being a master is not to skip the challenge without thinking, but to clearly recognize the gap between friend and foe and make correct judgments.
The most correct judgment now is that only by alarming the arcane mage of the Blue Tower, can Jincheng have any hope of survival.
It's just that what Jin Cheng didn't expect was that he didn't run out a few steps before he heard a loud shout behind him.
"Die!"
"The voice of the steward!" Jin Cheng was shocked for a moment, and turned his head to see that the steward was holding a short knife and pounced on the Silent Assassin.
"Run!" Kaneshiro shouted, but the steward had already pounced on the Silent Assassin, and the short knife he held was easily let go of the silent assassin, who then used the crossbow as a dagger, and slit the steward's throat with the sharp edge of the crossbow.
Blood gushed out, and the steward's pupils narrowed in an instant, due to fear and severe pain. And soon it will be magnified again, because of death.
Before that, the steward hugged the Silent Assassin tightly with both hands, choking in a voice that had his throat slit, "Ahem...... Run...... Gold...... Mr. ......"
The vitality in his body was passing away at a very fast speed, but out of nowhere, he burst out with an extremely large amount of power, firmly holding the Silent Assassin tight, and no matter how writhing the Silent Assassin was, he could not get rid of it.
Adventures in the game often encounter unexpected situations and unexpected powerful enemies. Jin Cheng has long been accustomed to the phenomenon of being dragged by his teammates with strong defense when facing an accident that he is bound to lose, and he retreats in time.
But this is not the game world of miracles, it's Igu, the real Igu.
Jin Cheng only felt a heat surging from his back to the top of his head, and in an instant his vision became hot, and as soon as he twisted his body, he ran towards the two people who were twisting on the ground.
The current Jincheng only has a total of ten points of spiritual power, and he used the secret magic shield from Old Willy to consume two points and has not recovered, and cast two surge tremors and two arrow stone techniques, that is, the spiritual power has been consumed and can no longer cast spells.
He didn't intend to cast a spell, he stomped on the Silent Assassin's frozen right hand, then picked up the dagger that the Silent Assassin had fallen off and stabbed it towards the Silent Assassin's lower body.
The steward hugged the Silent Assassin, which blocked the Silent Assassin's heart and throat, so Kaneshiro chose his thigh, which was the location of the major artery.
It was a bit difficult for him to pinpoint where the arteries were and to strike them in such a short period of time, which is more than a professional gamer. Jin Cheng didn't have time to think about whether there was such a piece of information in the knowledge base in his mind, he chose the most brutal way.
A few more stabs, there is always a knife that can hit.
After stabbing three times in a row, blood gushed from the Silent Assassin's thigh, and Jin Cheng realized that it had worked, so he suppressed his anger and hurriedly retreated a few steps.
The voice of the silent assassin roared in a low voice, and he finally pushed the steward away, but he was restrained by the wound on his thigh, and could only lie on his side on the ground, glaring at the golden city not far away.
According to this information, the arcane mage, who is no more than level 3, first let his first crossbow arrow miss, then dodged the shadow raid, and then miraculously predicted his dodge with a rapid cooldown, and also controlled himself with a surge tremor to empty the second crossbow arrow.
Forget it, it only shows that his reflexes are fast enough.
But then the surge and tremor strangely anticipated his silent assassination, and emptied his third bolt, leaving him without the means to pursue his enemies.
The Silent Assassin even felt that his and Jin Cheng's identities were a bit reversed.
He has always been the one who knows the arcane mage well, and he can accurately anticipate the mage's reaction at every step of the assassination, and calmly deal with killing the arcane mage easily.
Why did he accurately anticipate every reaction of the Silent Assassin when facing this third-level arcane mage, and then calmly arranged the means to deal with it?
What's even more hateful is why this coachman would defend Jincheng with all his life?
Unbeknownst to the Silent Assassins, hereditary nobles like Count Prosea also have the most loyal servants in their family.
And the steward knew that Jin Cheng was Ella's most trusted friend, and he accompanied Jin Cheng all the way from Prohai, watching Jin Cheng win the support of one long table chief after another for Prohai, and in his heart he already regarded Jin Cheng as Prohai's biggest benefactor.
Delaying a little time for Jincheng regardless of his life is completely the knee-jerk behavior of the steward.
"Who sent you?" Jin Cheng gasped and roared.
"The underworld has your answer." The Silent Assassin has not given up on his mission, holding the hand of the crossbow and being able to pull arrows from his waist and reload them with one hand.
Jin Cheng's face changed, he took two steps back, stretched out his hands, one hand protected his chest, and the other hand blocked his head. The Sanctuary of Silence was set up to deal with mages, so the Silent Assassin's arrows are all demon-breaking arrows, but they are not as lethal as archers. As long as these two vital points are blocked with his hands, the other injured Jincheng can completely support the appearance of the people in the Blue Tower.
He didn't choose to turn around and run, handing his back to an enemy with ranged attack capabilities was a foolish act, and pro gamers certainly wouldn't make that mistake.
The Silent Assassin's fundamentals were solid, and in the blink of an eye he had already loaded his arrows and aimed at the golden city.
Blocking by hand?
The Silent Assassin sneered inwardly, and he vaguely guessed where Kaneshiro's reflexes came from.
This Level 3 arcane mage must have been specially trained to deal with the Silent Assassin, which is why he can deal with himself so perfectly.
But he must not have expected that a Silent Assassin like himself had already fallen into a civilian killer, and after leaving the Silent Temple, his mission was not only for the Mystic.
This arrow is an armor-piercing arrow designed to deal with the Templars, a former colleague!
