Although he had killed many enemies on the battlefield as a soldier, and he had experienced many scenes of life and death, and it was not the first time that he was preparing to attack and kill like today, he was still very nervous.

Because the person to deal with tonight is not simple, extremely not simple, and is not even on the same level as him at all.

He is a martial artist in the late seventh order, and the other party is likely to be a saint-level powerhouse!

Others just imagined that if they wanted to participate in this battle, they didn't even have the courage to start preparing before the action, but Lin Xi had made all the preparations after all, and he came here tonight and stood on the opposite side of the man in black!

Courage, Lynsey already has, but confidence, he still lacks. In this attack, the chance of winning is at most fifty percent, and once the remaining fifty percent happens, Lin Xi knows better than anyone what the consequences are.

No one wants to die, and neither does Lynsey.

Faced with the moment when the winner was about to be decided, he couldn't help but be nervous, and now even the hand holding the round clock was sweaty.

"Tick Tick"

As the clock moved, it kept making rhythmic subtle sounds, and every time the sound came out, it meant that the time was approaching again, and looking at the patrols shuttling back and forth in the courtyard, Lin Xi forced himself to reconcile his emotions and throw away all the factors that were unfavorable to him before the war.

Learning to control one's emotions is always one of the qualities that a top killer must have, Lynsey is not a killer, he does not take assassination as his goal in life, as a way of survival, but tonight, there is no doubt that he is a killer.

As for whether to be a crappy killer or a top killer, it's all up to him.

Lin Xi, who understood this deeply, took a deep breath quietly, slowly slowing down the rapid heartbeat, and gradually, his eyes returned to calm.

It was just half past twelve, and Lynsey had just finished controlling her emotions.

There was no longer hesitation and nervousness in his eyes, but instead there were two fine lights, and an indomitable decisive momentum.

An atmosphere of slaughter began to form around the big locust tree.

Two minutes later.

"What's going on tonight, I feel like I'm always being stared at by a pair of eyes, and my body is cold. One of the patrolling guards muttered.

"It's just that the moon is dark and the wind is high, it seems that the atmosphere is wrong, if you want me to say that you are cowardly, scare yourself, so many of us patrol together, you are still afraid of a hair!"

Soon there was a scoffing at the gags, which were one of the guards' common ways to dispel the spirit of sleep.

Lin Xi relied on the convenience of the tall trees and wide eyes to take in the situation in the backyard.

Except for the patrol team that was about to leave them, the other two had already walked behind the opposing wall, so they were the only ones left around the locust tree.

"Whew!"

Like a slightly stronger wind swept by, the patrol team did not arouse any alarm, and the flying down Linxi's toes lightly touched the ground, like an eagle with black wings spread, and flew forward again, and the target was the last person in this patrol team!

No one would have thought that someone would visit the Earl's Mansion at night so late, let alone that this person would make a move, but with Lin Xi's means and strength, even if these third-order guards were prepared in advance, it would be difficult to defend.

The powerful arm quickly stretched forward, and Lynsey slashed the back of the man's neck with a powerful but silent blow.

The body was as boneless as if it had eaten cartilage, and the man lay back limply, already unconscious.

Lynsey held the man's body and quickly led him to a dark corner that had been planned in advance.

It's a craggy cave in the middle of a rockery, and it's not deep, but tonight it's dark and windy, and the patrol team doesn't show up until about every ten minutes, so Linsey isn't worried about being discovered by accident.

Stripped off the clothes of the fainted man, and when he came out, Lindsey was a patrol guard.

Quietly rushed to the previous patrol team, and the others did not realize that in less than a minute, such a big thing had happened in the team.

The patrol team marched next to the corner, joking from time to time to dispel sleep, anyway, the Earl's Court is quiet now, there are no problems at all, and since the last time Lan Ji was killed, no one has broken into the Earl's Court for a long, long time, and patrols seem to have become a routine.

The Earl pays money, and they do things, it's as simple as that.

Wait until three o'clock in the morning, as soon as the handover is completed, today's things will come to an end, and the money will also mean that you will get it.

Suddenly, a real scream pierced the silent night sky and resounded in the backyard of the Earl's Court!

One moment the patrol was at the front of the patrol, and the next moment the guards saw from behind him a bloody arrow shot from his neck, and a black dagger was plunged into the main artery of the man's neck!

"There are assassins!" shouted from the team, beckoning to the other two teams patrolling nearby.

"Protect your lordship, quick!"

In the team that hurried over, it was obviously the leader who shouted hurriedly, so the three teams merged into one, and did not care about their dead companions, nor did they have time to hunt down the murderer, but rushed into the bedroom of the adults in the backyard like a swarm.

Lin Xi mingled in the group, and quietly quickened his pace, gradually reaching the front of the whole team.

No one would notice that the patrol guard, who was dressed in the slightest, had changed, especially when the situation was critical and the scene was noisy.

The common intention of all was surprisingly unanimous, and that was to protect Count Georgis.

This is your previous order: once the Earl's Mansion is attacked, first rush to the bedroom to protect me and the young master and other families.

At this point, the time was almost twelve thirty-four.

There was chaos in the backyard, and the guards quickly reached a row of bedrooms with weapons and torches.

Without waiting for orders, the dozen or so people at the front of the team hurried forward, crossed the bushes, crossed the corridor, and arrived in front of Georgis's bedroom, among these people, naturally including Linsey.

Hearing such a big commotion outside, Georgis had already opened the door and leaned out.

"Are you alright, my lord?" asked the guard at the front.

"It's okay, I'm fine. Georgis replied with a dark face. It just so happened that he was listening to the instructions of the black-clothed adult in the bedroom, and was about to take the space ring containing one million gold coins from the adult's hand, when he heard a commotion outside, so he was naturally in a bad mood.

"While patrolling the compound, one of the guards was attacked and killed, please instruct me. The guard continued.

On weekdays, Georgis would definitely let most of the guards stay, huddled in front of him and behind him to protect his safety, but tonight the situation is very different, the man in black is in his bedroom, and he is still afraid of the murderer's sneak attack?

"Go, light up the yard and search it carefully. Georgis waved his hand, signaling that he didn't need so many people to protect him, but he also knew that the search was just a show, and the murderer should have fled.

The guards received the order and prepared to leave the place with the others.
