Chapter 51: The Land of Killing

() The night without moonlight is especially dark.

In the middle of the night, the Fernandez estate is as calm as ever, but beneath the surface of calm, there is an unexpected and dangerous murder.

The night breeze swept through the woods outside the manor, making a "rustling" sound of leaves scratching and muffling the footsteps that were rapidly approaching the manor. The invisible figure scurried through the trees, blending itself into the night.

The guard hut on the side of the gate of the manor was brightly lit, and two female members of the garden team sat in the hut chatting about family life. Although they have been expelled from their castles, the Fernández family still retains the personal military structure and guard system characteristic of the high nobility, even if they are in the middle of nowhere. This is the reason why the garden protection team of more than 20 people still sends people to watch at night.

An all-night vigil is not a pleasant errand, not to mention the cold, fatigue, insect bites, and lack of sleep will make the skin bad, but the biggest problem is that most women are naturally afraid of the dark, even if they know that there is nothing, but the long night always makes them scared, but on the day of their turn to be on duty, they can't escape, so they have to light the lights of the guard hut to the brightest.

The chattering conversation between the two female team members is not just a simple way to pass the time, in addition to diluting the inner subconscious anxiety about the night, they also have to fight against the growing drowsiness. If it weren't for the fact that Miss Nanokai, who is also the captain of the ranger, hadn't come to check on the post, I was afraid that these two girls would have been lazy in the warm bed.

Suddenly, a strange wind blew into the guard hut from the window, and the four oil lamps hanging in the corner were "coincidentally" extinguished at the same time. In an instant, the light turned to darkness, and the eyes could not adjust, and the two girls screamed "ah" at the same time, but before they could come to check what was happening, two daggers with cold light were already pressed against their necks, and then lightly swiped......

Even though the light was too dark to see, the strong smell of blood coming from the dagger in his hand confirmed that he had succeeded.

A few peculiar insect chirps sounded in the watchman's hut, and dark shadows appeared in the woods, either through the gate or over the wall, and hundreds of pairs of feet trampled on the ground of the manor's vestibule.

"It's finally here. In the darkness, a sinister sneer swept over a mouth.

Like the tide of the sea in the middle of the night, the surging black shadows crossed the fields full of potatoes and approached a dead living area. With poisonous daggers in their hands, they silently rushed into the dormitory, and then slipped into the bedroom where someone was sleeping, and in the sound of knotted breathing, the women who slept like dead pigs in their beds were cut throats in their sleep. The smell of blood filled the air, indicating that the mass assassination had been successful. In just a few seconds, more than 60 people in the manor have died.

"Hehe, it seems to be going well. These fools have completely fallen into our pit. In the darkness, the sound of a sneer sounded again, but it was not the same person who followed the previous voice.

After the killers completed their respective tasks as agreed in advance, they gathered in the open space in front of the collective dormitory, and then quietly gathered in the direction of the chapel. Apparently they knew quite well that there were quite important people in the chapel, and they could not be assassinated casually like they had done in the collective dormitory, and in order to increase the success rate, the group of killers had to act in groups.

"Ha, I thought they had three heads and six arms, but it turned out to be just a bunch of jugglers. Big sister, let me do it. A third sneer rang out in the darkness.

"No, Lamiri, wait a minute. The voice that sounded first rejected her request.

Originally, in the Assassins' Creed, in order to keep their whereabouts hidden, they usually acted alone or in small groups, and it was impossible to have a large group of Assassins swaggering through the market as they do now. But now for this group of invaders, this operation is not just a simple assassination, but also a siege and annihilation, a one-sided annihilation.

Dozens of killers gathered outside the chapel door, several killers armed with long-range weapons guarded the perimeter of the church, aiming crossbow arrows at any possible exit from the church, one person gently opened the latch of the church door with a knife, and then more than a dozen people slipped into the church. At this time, there was still silence in the church, and there was no reaction, and it seemed that the people inside were sleeping like the women in their sleep in the dormitory. The operation is going to go smoothly......

"Okay, let's go. "Hidden in the darkness, a woman who had been in control of the manor from the beginning, the great boss Nanokai, finally gave the order.

"Boom ......"

Without warning, a violent explosion erupted in the church! Several killers who were standing close were directly blown away by the blast of air, and their companions who rushed into the church were thrown out in the form of half-scorched severed arms and stumps.

Immediately afterwards, in the ground, more than a dozen long objects like pipes suddenly drilled out, the top of which opened like an umbrella, and then quickly rotated, throwing out a large number of steel balls the size of peanuts. In the face of this sudden attack of the rain of steel beads, the killers in the manor panicked, cried and called for shelter, but there were still many people who were shot into a sieve by this rain of steel beads.

People killed by the rain of steel beads are covered with poisonous sores all over their bodies, and even people who do not have dense phobias will be frightened by it. Some managed to find a tree or a rock to escape, others simply lay on the ground and resigned themselves to fate, some used the corpses of their companions as shields, and some of the better ones used their own weapons to block all the balls. However, the explosion and the sudden rain of steel balls were only a prelude, and the nightmare did not end there. From the outer walls of the buildings, on the poles of large trees, on the wooden fences, and on the stones, many small holes suddenly appeared, showing the deadly cold light of the sharp arrows on the small crossbow machine installed inside. The small arrows fired by the organ covered the crowd from all directions. These frightened killers, who had just picked up a life from the attack of the rain of steel balls, were immediately attacked by a rain of arrows.

Suddenly, several explosions of "boom" and "boom" sounded in several higher places of the mountain villa, and in the firelight, several killers holding heavy stone crossbows were blown into the sky, and then their bodies were shredded by the explosion of air. These killers thought that they would be able to snipe safely by occupying the commanding heights, but they never expected that these seemingly the most "safe" sniper positions had already been installed.

Several of the killers who stood guard in the woods outside the manor managed to escape the explosions, steel balls, and rain arrows, but they were not spared. I only felt that my feet suddenly sank! The originally solid hard mud floor suddenly turned into quicksand for some reason, and the whole person fell into it. The people around him wanted to rescue their companions who were trapped in the quicksand, but unexpectedly, they realized that even they were trapped in the quicksand. Someone threw a rope hook at a nearby tree, hoping to pull themselves and their companions out of the quicksand, but they didn't realize that the quicksand had coalesced into a giant fist of sand and smashed them into the sand. A magic trap has been set in the woods.

"Retreat!" suddenly someone in the crowd shouted. The screams of his companions in the woods gave the leader of the Assassins a slap in the face, and he knew that the operation was no longer possible, and that there was no other option but to withdraw from the killing ground before inflicting greater damage.

The killers who received the order rushed out of the manor like a tidal wave. The lightly injured were picked up and carried away by their companions, while the seriously injured who were incapacitated were ruthlessly abandoned.

However, even if they tried to escape, the owner of the manor was not happy.

Running through the potato fields and running at full speed for more than a hundred meters would have been able to escape the damned manor, which was no problem at all for the Assassins, who were known for their quick movements, but they soon discovered that they were wrong, and that the seemingly harmless potato fields were actually more dangerous than the living quarters where they had been ambushed!

When the trigger device, disguised as potato leaves, exposed in the dirt, was touched by a human foot, the alchemical mine was instantly detonated.

"Boom", "Boom", "Boom", "Boom", "Boom", "Boom", "Boom", "Boom", "Boom", ......

Explosions reverberated in the potato fields, and the killers who stepped on landmines by mistake were blown to pieces and blood. But their sacrifice brought life to their companions behind them. Those who survive follow the place where the victim stepped on the mine, and the place where the mine was triggered is the safest escape route.

After all the hardships, these killers finally escaped to the gate of the manor, but what awaited them was despair! Because a large area of ground in front of the gate of the manor had somehow moved out of position, revealing a deep ditch 5 or 6 meters wide. It was a culdrain that had been hidden underground, but now that it has been rediscovered, it can be seen almost winding around the manor, looking like a moat.

The killers who rushed to the front couldn't hold back their footsteps and fell into the culvert with a "porphyr". They struggled to climb up in the water, but they could not find the point of focus, and the "water" on their bodies made people slippery. No, that's not water! Water can't have such a choking smell, those liquids are oil!

Just as the killer who fell into the culvert shouted that something was wrong, a flaming arrow came from a distance, crossed the living quarters, the potato area, and swept over the heads of the crowd, landing accurately in the culvert. The oil in the culvert was quickly ignited, forming a long wall of fire, completely blocking the way out of the manor, and the unlucky ones who fell in the oil were burned alive.

Fernandez Manor, seemingly peaceful and peaceful, is a murderous place full of institutions and dangers. Those traps and traps were arranged so delicately and skillfully, they could not be improvised, they must have been stored many years ago, and have been continuously strengthened and upgraded over the years.

Just then, a large lighting magic unfolded over the manor. The night suddenly turned into daylight.

Outside the living quarters, in front of the potato fields, a group of women appear in front of the killers who are exposed to the light. The four women in front of them are standing in the middle of Ipeia and Nanokai, and on the left and right are Sasha and Lamiri. Behind these four women were more than 20 female soldiers in leather armor and armed with spears.

"What a bold man, the 'Sun-Eating Pupil', who dares to attack the Fernandez family, none of you can escape. Nanokai, a strong physique, glared angrily at her eyes as sharp as sea eagles, sweeping over all the surviving killers present.
