Chapter 53: A Lady's Gaze
It's a pity that this time Shen Yan didn't find the answer from the elf's memory.
Even if a person with strong mental power does not become a magician, he or she can defend his brain after training. For example, when it comes to certain taboos and secrets, you can resolutely prevent yourself from continuing to think about it and avoid revealing the secret. Like some magics that can read the brain's superficial memories, this defense is useless.
However, in fact, the target of this elf's assassination is not difficult to guess. You don't even need to use Ozmat's divine reasoning to get the answer.
First of all, what the Moon Elf said to the legendary magician before involved the two lords of the Lady and the Lord of Order...... We don't know who the Lord of Order is. But who is the lady, does it need to be said?
Secondly, it was the ring before it crashed, and it was also the transportation hub of the multiverse at that time, the focus of contention between all parties. That "Lord of Order" is clearly another careerist who wants to control the multiverse by controlling the Ring City. And the only obstacle standing in the way of this ambition is the Lady of the Ring, whose city is clearly written "Gods and dogs are not allowed"!
Wait, there's probably no dog here......
Finally, and most importantly, how did this person who was boarded by Shen Yan die, don't you have a little B number in your heart?
So the target of his assassination is the lady herself? I'll go...... I'm so excited! This has to be ...... with netizens Have I met in my past life? People aren't ready yet.
Just as he was thinking this, the world outside the abandoned house suddenly fell silent—the cries of selling, the sound of carriages and horses, the sound of conversation, the rustle of the wind through the trees, the strange chirping of birds, the roar of monsters in iron cages...... And so on all these sounds - all of a sudden, as if someone had been violently choking the throat, and it stopped abruptly!
If I don't speak first in the spring, which insect dares to make a sound?
The world is so quiet that you can hear a needle on the ground, "Knock knock ~ knock knock ~" The heartbeat of this body can be heard clearly, but from Shen Yan's ears, it looks like his own nervous heartbeat.
Whose appearance has such a great power? Shen Yan had already guessed. Why did the moon elf have to pick such an abandoned house to squat, he also guessed the reason...... This is the path that the lady must pass, and someone planned this assassination.
The owner of this body acts.
With a fast and rhythmic posture, Yue Gui silently picked up the elven recurve bow, and silently lifted the table, revealing the neatly arranged ...... below. Nima has a whole hundred pots of arrows!
Yue Gui used such a dancing movement, elegantly pulled out the longbow, and in an instant an arrow appeared on his bow! Shen Yan didn't even see how the arrow was pulled out of the quiver. However, this was only the first step, as if the Moon Elf knew the exact location of the target to be assassinated outside the house, he spread his bowstring against the wall—
When that arrow pierced the stone wall, it was like wearing a piece of tender tofu!
Shen Yan felt a huge amount of magic power being withdrawn from this body, and in the corresponding quiver that was pulled out of an arrow, the remaining 23 arrows disappeared with this shot - what Shen Yan didn't see was that outside, a rain of arrows appeared out of thin air! 24 long arrows full of magic power, lined up and splashed towards the target!
The elves repeated this action over and over again, each arrow taking away a whole pot of arrows. Fifty moments later, a hundred pots of arrows were emptied! And Shen Yan also felt that most of the massive magic power of this body had been consumed.
There are only countless arrow holes in the walls of the room; But outside of this ruined house, there is a rainstorm of sharp arrows. It was as if a whole legion was being thrown in the direction where the lady was! Especially when the elf's last arrow is off the string, and the first rain of arrows he shoots has not yet fallen......
"A moment is a thought, twenty thoughts are a moment, twenty moments are a snap of a finger, twenty snaps of a finger is a pre-one, and twenty pre-is a moment."
Fifty moments had passed—and the overwhelming swarm of 2,400 arrows would fly a little longer.
In the face of the rain of arrows that hit like mountains and seas, the woman who appeared on the street with a silent effect and made the world silent, finally stopped her walk today. Usually every time a lady appears and floats and flies across the street (Ring Road), there are countless blades surrounding her. These blades make up the lady's armor, gown, and mask, wrapping the lady from head to home, with only one pair of eyes still exposed.
With these dark black eyes, she glanced at the rain of arrows that were flying.
*****
The laurel in the house didn't even look at the results of the rain of arrows, or he knew very well that there would be no results...... Therefore, he did not waste time, but directly grabbed his "bracelet" and pulled it down hard! The sudden sharp pain made Shen Yan, who was distracted, scream miserably!
When the severe pain occurred, Shen Yan was pondering - because this moon elf named Yue Gui had just shown him what a "bow and arrow master" was!
The 100 arrows were not the standard products of some arsenal, but were made of wood, steel, obsidian, bone, bronze, and spar according to their materials...... Wait, most of them Shen Yan can't recognize. Some arrows look like they're only worth a few cents, while others look like they're worth a fortune. Shen Yan knew that Penny had the ability to control metal, and apparently the assassin knew about it, so they specially made a hundred arrows of different materials for the Moon Elves!
Then the Moon Elf shot it out in a hundred different ways—each one that brought out the best of the arrows! Shen Yan believed that if there were one hundred and one materials, then the Moon Elves would also have one hundred and one archery techniques.
The second technique is that every arrow shot can be carried with the skill of shooting all the arrows in a salvo, and the name is very straightforward "arrow rain". This technique has always been a top secret of the elves, and it is the foundation of an elven kingdom in the multiverse. It is obviously a kind of archery skill that is "specially used for war", the kind that one person can defend the city and a hundred people can destroy the country. Now the "Arrow Rain" skill has been seen through by Shen Yan from the inside out, and there is also on-site guidance from the bow and arrow master, who personally experienced and delivered joint pain once.
"Shouldn't elves spend their days basking in the sun and playing the piano every day? I hate people who live so hard for a long time! He was complaining, but he was suddenly hit by the sharp pain! It's a double whammy!
However, this is not over, feeling that the host actually has no reaction to the pain, Shen Yan is speechless...... The same is true of the elf who was cut into a stick, and the same is true of the banshee king who can still be an idol even after death, are the elves who use bows and arrows perverted?
The blood-stained bracelet stretched back and forth, and the original "bracelet" that looked like a tree branch was actually an arrow that grew on the artery of the moon elf and was cultivated with blood. The branches of the tree usually coil themselves around like bracelets worn on the wrist, but in fact they are nourished by the blood of the host all the time, and become more and more powerful over time.
Laurel put the "branch" on the bow and showed a solemn look for the first time! Instead of aiming at the lady walking down the street, he randomly looked for a direction and shot the branch out. The next moment, Shen Yan's spirit was torn in half along with the host—most of it remained in the host's body, and the other small piece followed the branch, starting a wonderful journey.
He saw the "branches" burrow into the dirt and sneak backwards for a while, rounding the street corners; Seeing the "branch" grow out of the crack in the stone and become a new shrub; I saw that the "branch" took the opportunity to slip into the trouser of a passer-by, passed by an indescribable object, and came out of the man's cuff; I saw the "branches" flying into the woods with the movements of passers-by, turning into branches swaying in the wind......
The journey is long, but the time is short.
Eventually, when the lady looked at the rain of arrows in the air, the branches turned into dead branches and fell from the trees.
And the wind stabbed the lady in the back of the neck defenselessly......
When the tip of the arrow was still 0.01 cm away from the lady's neck, even the moon elf, who had always been dull, had a little excitement in his thoughts! Obviously, he was confident in the power of this arrow, which had been nourished by blood.
However, a thin blade emerges from the back of the neck, stopping the branch's final journey. Then the blade carefully cut the branch into 100,000 small pieces that he couldn't even see with his eyes, and then Shi Shiran flew back...... For the spirit of sojourn, this is simply a slice of the human body, and it is too late to live!
The whole process hurt Shen Yan...... Penny, I hate you! He roared and knelt down for the host - Shen Yan was in pain to death when he came to feel life, and the main master of the moon elf still didn't react at all. You can't be painless, are you? But this is clearly a soul pain, and it has nothing to do with nerves.
At this time, the rain of arrows like a mountain finally fell, and then turned into wood chips, iron slag, bone powder and jade chips under the lady's glance, and the rain and wind blew all over the sky.
Only then did Shen Yan know how awesome Ms. Huancheng was...... Each of those arrows could pierce steel. But from the beginning to the end of the attack, people only looked at it! The look in his eyes was even a little melancholy. If it is said that in Gu Long's novel, the loneliness of Ximen blowing snow can be condensed into snow; Then the loneliness in the lady's eyes at this moment has condensed into a blade.
Just because they looked at you in the crowd, and then you died......
Shen Yan just wanted to say one sentence today, "Kneel for the two uncles."
The moon elf called Laurel here is too, not to mention the unpredictable archery skills of others! Just talking about the gnats (some people say that the crickets are strongly opposed) an archer, the magic power on his body is so deep that Shen Yan, a genuine warlock, wants to hit the wall! And so far, this moon elf seems to understand his role in this assassination, but he still maintains a cold expression, putting life and death out of the way.
and turned an assassination into a frontal assault......
