Chapter 212: The Killer in the Shadows (Medium)
I almost didn't get into the hospital after drinking! This important event in life is really inseparable from wine, I'll take it! Wine is really not a good thing! Actually, I wanted to update it yesterday, but I haven't been able to log in, it's really sad! ――
Thank you all for your support, I'm back with Meow! ――
Although the intelligence ability of the player thief needs to be improved, after all, not all players have the experience of participating in the work of agents in reality, but the person who can act as a good spy in the game is not necessarily a good thief. But if hundreds of thieves can't find a single clue when they explore an area, then the player thieves can definitely find a rope and hang themselves.
In less than three hours, the group of players under Fei Yun's command who only ate and didn't do anything were a little more reliable, and directly rummaged through the suspicious places in this area. Then the players of Burkner Town saw the courage and strength of their player lord, and directly mobilized thousands of well-equipped soldiers and 3,000 cavalry directly from outside the city, and then searched the area inch by inch.
The vibration of thousands of soldiers stepping on the ground and the deterrence of the slow movement of 3,000 cavalry made the inner city of Burkner, which had not experienced the impact of war, experience the iron and blood storm for the first time. Of course, for most of the residents in the town, they are used to some battles, after all, many old residents of Burkner Town have participated in battles behind Chen Kai's buttocks. Although many of them were just dragged out to slip around, the old guys bragged on their thighs and said they had cut off a few heads.
So when Chen Kai asked Drake to show up in the city with a large army, most of the residents didn't do anything because they didn't think things were bad. In fact, many residents followed behind the large army to watch the excitement, and some even kicked the murder weapon directly and prepared to follow behind to pick up leaks.
However, most of the time, the army did not find anything, but many residents were frightened. After all, when they opened the door and saw hundreds of soldiers appearing in front of them, holding weapons to search the house, basically none of them could be calm. Thankfully, most of the residents were only slightly frightened. After these soldiers came to the surface, they were very cooperative, and opened the door for the soldiers to check.
Of course, there are also those who are very uncooperative with the search. How these guys ended up is not said for the time being. But Chen Kai definitely wouldn't like to have a thorn in his territory. Even democracy depends on who is being addressed, and in general, normal residents will not stop the police from searching their homes, as long as they show the appropriate documents and do not tamper with the contents of the house. People who are worried about the police searching their houses basically either have ghosts in their hearts or have a very strong desire to protect their privacy.
But for the aborigines who are in the game of the feudal lord era. They don't have such a strong concept of self-privacy, and most of the players don't have a home in this area, so no players will jump out to find Chen Kai's stubble. Therefore, in the end, those who will run out to oppose the search are basically the extremely rare democrats in the game, and this kind of elements basically can't take off the hat of a chaotic party, not the existence of these democrats, so there are only those who have ghosts in their hearts.
Despite the remoteness of the town of Burkner, it is really difficult to find the rebels in Hansting. Therefore, those unlucky people who jumped out were basically members who were originally going to assassinate Chen Kai. In fact, if they were to be inspected in pieces, it would probably be nothing, but Chen Kai's search was too sudden. Many of these non-thieves were unprepared, and although Chen Kai did not prohibit the residents from holding weapons, when a room full of people wore assassin equipment and looked at the soldiers with weapons in their hands. It was almost like writing the words I have a ghost on his face, and it was the first time for the soldiers of Burkner Town to face up against such a powerful high-ranking professional.
Perhaps the battle would not have broken out, as long as the Assassins were honest, but unfortunately most of the Assassins were attacked unprepared when the battle broke out. Some didn't even wear armor. Directly holding the weapon and pounced.
The first Warrior Assassin to raise his arms to a soldier may have been spat on by his companions countless times after his death, as it was because of his recklessness that many of his companions who would not otherwise have been exposed were forced to raise their arms and join the fight. One party came prepared. The other party was completely unprepared, and some even just fell asleep. Although they were extremely alert and rushed out, in the face of the hoplites armed to the teeth, their final outcome could only be stabbed to death by indiscriminate shooting.
Don't look at the strength of these assassins, they can basically kill seven or eight soldiers armed to the teeth in a single battle, but they suffer in group battles. Compared to a dozen Assassins and hundreds of soldiers in a battle, if it is a small house, then the warrior Assassins will definitely have the advantage, but Drake, who leads the troops, will definitely not be stupid enough to fight these Assassins face to face. Once it is found that there is a problem with the people inside, then a large number of shields block the door, and then directly break the window and throw He Liwen's specially configured tear gas canisters into the house.
The munitions, which were infused with large amounts of pepper and chili peppers, and even some toxic fumes, were so effective that unprepared Assassins were hit almost as soon as they were thrown into the house with tear gas. Although the smoke was not fatal, it forced them to open windows or rush outside. It wasn't just tear gas that was thrown into the house at the same time, as Drake knew full well that his soldiers, while elite, were no match for the Assassins who were skilled in killing people. So when he chose his tactics, he basically killed the assassins even if he lost the house. Therefore, in addition to tear gas, some of the people who were thrown into the house were simply fierce fire oil, and a large amount of fire oil was thrown directly into the house, directly causing the whole house to burn.
In the face of such a crazy move, even the toughest assassin knew that this time was in big trouble. Because although they are strong, they have not yet reached the point where they can ignore the flames and burn their bodies, even if their fighting energy can make them resist a certain amount of flame burning, the flames in the houses are almost always burning. They had no other way but to escape the house, and in this case, the only end for the fierce Assassins was to howl and rush out of the house, hoping to kill more soldiers before they died. The so-called killing one is enough, killing two earns one, but Drake, who commands the soldiers, will not let these trapped beasts hurt his own soldiers.
Under his command, all the infantry were fronted by shieldmen with large heavy shields. The armor on their bodies was simply a patchwork of steel plates. The only requirement for these armors is to be thick. In order to increase their defenses, it will be very difficult for soldiers wearing armor to move their bodies. But when they formed a defensive formation, even a group of cavalry could not necessarily break their shields in a short time. Because their armor has a large number of supports, especially where the shield is attached, even if they don't hold the shield in their hands, the strength of the support itself can allow the shield to withstand hundreds of kilograms of impact.
Faced with a defensive array of such soldiers, the fierce assassins who rushed out ended up being turned into a sieve by the spears that stabbed from behind the soldiers. Although the fire burned down a lot of buildings, it was relative to the enemies killed. The losses of Chen Kai's soldiers were simply minimal.
The combined number of Assassins and suspected Assassins killed during the entire afternoon of purge fighting was more than one hundred and twenty, and perhaps innocent among them were all alive, but they were Assassins in the eyes of all who lived. When sieve-like corpses and charred corpses were dragged out, the inhabitants of Burkner were undoubtedly praising the lord's wisdom. Although the lord in their mouth does not seem to appear until the end. However, with the corpses of assassins hanging outside the city of Burkner, Chen Kai's prestige seemed to have risen by a few hundred points again.
Of course, Chen Kai also gained a lot of experience because of the action of eliminating assassins, but Chen Kai still had a trace of worry in his heart, because there were too many assassins who were killed. Hundreds of Assassins! Chen Kai's hands were shaking as he looked at the death toll above, if these guys who hung up were not all assassins, then Chen Kai might be sad in his heart, but maybe he would be glad that there were not many assassins. But if all of them were really assassins, then Chen Kai would be even more worried, because he knew that these people who were killed were just unlucky to be discovered, and God knows how many assassins in the entire town of Berkna did not find out. Perhaps there are a few more Assassins hiding in the town of Burkner. More likely dozens, if not hundreds. As soon as he thought of those hidden assassins, Chen Kai's heart began to tremble.
"Fourth! Are you sure you killed all the Assassins? Chen Kai looked at Fei Yun's face very solemnly, and Fei Yun's face when he was questioned was not good-looking, because he also thought of what Chen Kai thought of. Although he wished that all the Assassins had been eliminated, it was obviously impossible, as many Assassin remnants had been found in the burned houses, and the number of these items was only partially found to have been killed, which meant that many of them did not die in the purge. Chen Kai's behavior may be the only benefit of startling the snake, except for temporarily making Chen Kai a little safer, it is estimated that it has not played any good role, and may even make those assassins hide deeper from now on.
"I hope to kill some of the people who have been wronged, but the fact is that the leader seems to be very big this time! At least the total number of assassins counted now is definitely more than two hundred, and this is still the number after the statistics of the relics found, even if most of them were killed, but there are still seventy or eighty left! These guys are even more difficult to deal with, and if there is life accident insurance in the game, you should buy one sooner! It's better to die once than to be remembered all the time! Fei Yun shrugged his shoulders rather helplessly, in fact, he was more worried that the assassins would shift their targets to others after this battle. At that time, Xu Fei and the others who were active outside were forced to be miserable, in fact, Fei Yun's worries were not superfluous, and an unlucky person was assassinated that night.
Guan Yu, who was holding the Blade of Judgment, became the second target to be assassinated, and it was very unfortunate that those assassins succeeded. More than a dozen warriors cooperated with the assassins to assassinate him, although Guan Yu, who wielded the blade of judgment, was very strong in combat, but he was not a pervert like Chen Kai, even if his combat effectiveness was limited, plus he did not have a lot of life-saving guys on his body, he was finally hacked to death by a knife and became the first unlucky guy in the assassination operation.
Fortunately, his weapon was not lost in the end, perhaps because the Blade of Judgment was too hot, although these killers hacked Guan Yu to death, they did not dare to take away this weapon, which represented the token of the chief head of the Dawn Temple Knights. If they take this weapon, then the result will be that they will be targeted by the Dawn Temple, the most powerful temple organization in the continent, even if the people behind them are strong, it is estimated that the end will not be much better.
At the same time, maybe because the poison that can make the player directly drop the rank is too rare, although this time Guan Yu hung up once. But the losses were not very heavy. It's just a contribution to the experience that has been accumulated so hard. By the way, it just added a bit of a bare-ass player to the female player in Burkner.
When the resurrected Guan Yu appeared in the position of the lord's mansion in a huff. The second all-inclusive emergency meeting of the month was reconvened. No one was in the mood to discuss Guan Yu's hanging up, or his resurrection with his bare butt being teased by the system, because everyone's minds were focused on one place, and that was the problem of assassin assassination.
If Chen Kai was the only one who needed to worry about assassination, now the number of people who need to worry about being assassinated has been extended to all those who attended the meeting. Among them, special attention should be paid to Xu Fei. Su Wan, Su Xinghe, and Fei Yun are the four of them. Xu Fei is the brains of the entire Burkna Town, although sometimes Wang Xuewen and they will also serve as a person, but in the hearts of the aborigines below, Xu Fei, the lord adjutant, is definitely the most qualified and competent. As for Su Wan, in the eyes of the residents below, she is synonymous with the lord's wife, and everyone knows that the extremely tall and inhuman lord has a very beautiful human wife. Although they don't seem to be married yet, in the eyes of most of the residents of Burkner, Su Wan is the wife of the city lord.
Needless to say, Su Xinghe, the title of captain of the guard gave him the capital to be assassinated, because the other captain of the guard had just been killed once, that is, Guan Yu, the unlucky bastard. Among the four guard captains, Su Xinghe and Guan Yu are the easiest to be assassinated, although Zhao Tiezhu and Xuehaifeng are the same as them, but Zhao Tiezhu and the two of them are always mixed with the shield guards, if they are assassinated, then there are at least dozens of shield guardian soldiers around them who can help. As for the other Blood Sea Peak, it was even more difficult to be killed, soaked in Chen Kai's hoplite regiment of 1,000 people, he was now serving as a heavy sword instructor, although he played soy sauce more times than he officially went to work, but it couldn't change the fact that he was in the barracks like Zhao Tiezhu most of the time. Only Su Xinghe will often wander around alone, and the chance of being assassinated is much higher.
The last intelligence officer in the town of Fervon Burkner, though he thinks he is well hidden. However, the very unruly Leif thief of the thieves' guild has been sold directly as low-level information. If he is not afraid in normal times, but once he is really targeted, it will definitely be the same as Guan Yu. Although Fei Yun thinks that his escape ability is first-class. But he also knew that if he really encountered more than a dozen big thieves like Chen Kai to assassinate him, then he would definitely not be able to escape.
Of course, the four of them are only the easiest and most likely targets to be assassinated, not that they will definitely be assassinated, nor does it mean that the assassination targets are only the four of them, in fact, if possible, all the people sitting in the council hall, even Drake, could be assassinated. Even those centurions and centurions appointed by Chen Kai may be killed, and compared to players like Chen Kai, the losses caused by these aboriginal officers will be even greater after they are killed.
So when these things were put in front of everyone, everyone was silent, because everyone knew that it was a dead end. Those assassins just wanted to use this method to force Chen Kai to appear, so that Chen Kai would not continue to be a turtle with a shrunken head, if Chen Kai still did not appear even though his subordinates were assassinated, then the blow to his reputation was very huge, and a large number of assassination activities would cause the security environment in the entire town of Berkna to decline rapidly. Not a single resident would be happy to live in an environment full of assassinations, which would eventually lead Chen Kai's territory into a very dangerous situation.
The only way to face this situation was for Chen Kai to walk out of the lord's mansion and directly expose himself to those assassins, using himself as bait to divert the targets of those assassins. But in that case, Chen Kai himself would be in danger, if he was killed in the assassination and directly whitewashed, then the territory would collapse directly because of the loss of his master.
"Let's talk about what to do now, shall we?" Chen Kai sat in his place, the huge rock seat looked a little rough, but because of its size, it gave people an extremely strong visual impact. People don't need to look at the person sitting on the chair to definitely be able to do this position The person must be very huge, and the impact will be even more obvious after seeing the person, but the people sitting in the entire conference hall basically know Chen Kai's situation, so no one was shocked. But after Chen Kai finished speaking, the others couldn't help but look at Chen Kai who was sitting in the seat.
Today, Chen Kai is very solemnly wearing a full set of baronial attire, and even has a small baronial laurel on his head, which is basically owned by every nobleman above the lord who is called the head ring of the noble. But very few people will wear them, because they are only worn on the most formal occasions, and Chen Kai obviously takes today's regular meeting very seriously. It's not that he wants to show his lord's prestige, because there is really no need for it, but because it is not only Xu Fei and the other players who are attending the regular meeting today, but also Drake and the others, including those commanders and garrisons who occupy a very important position in Chen Kai's army. There are only a dozen people who can sit in the huge conference hall now, and Su Wan is sitting next to Chen Kai in a very unhappy situation, which can be said to be deliberate by Chen Kai. Because this position can only be sat by the lord's wife, and Chen Kai's purpose in doing this is to make Drake and them identify with Su Wan, if Chen Kai was really accidentally assassinated and hung up on a whiteboard, then Su Wan, as the lord's wife, is eligible to inherit Chen Kai's territory, and the inheritance is also above Chen Yi's sister who is also determined to be a blood relative in this game.
