Chapter 196: Devastating Blow
……
"A new mission has been decided."
In the hall of the night raid stronghold, Najeta held a cigarette as usual, and said elegantly: "The target is a distant relative of Minister Ernest Iokar, who abducted women in the name of the minister and brutalized them until death, and the mercenaries who guarded that guy and followed him to benefit are also guilty of the same crime, and they will all be punished by death." This time it's an important task, and all the staff are dispatched! ”
"All on duty?!"
Everyone was taken aback, it stands to reason that a thug like this would only take two or three people at most to deal with it.
Najeta lowered her eyes slightly, and said rather vaguely: "Well, the headquarters is very concerned about this operation, and according to reliable information, the four Rakshasa ghosts from the Imperial Fist Temple have appeared around the imperial capital recently, and the possibility that they will intervene cannot be ruled out, so it is necessary to send additional manpower just in case." ”
"The Four Rakshasas?" Xia Lan raised his eyebrows keenly, and subconsciously glanced at Zhang Hao, only to see that the other party also frowned, obviously both sides knew that when the plot developed to this point, there should not be the four ghosts of Rakshasas, so there was something wrong with this.
The red pupil explained thoughtfully: "I have once seen the people of the four ghosts of the Rakshasas, their skills should not be underestimated, they have a strength comparable to that of the emperor's envoys, and they are the four strongest among the secular disciples of the Imperial Fist Temple. ”
As a former member of the Imperial Assassination Force, Red Hitomi, she is well aware of the horrors of those strong people in the Imperial camp, although Najeta said that the Rakshasa Four Ghosts haunt the imperial capital, but she does not think that the Rakshasa Four Ghosts, as the minister's private execution team, will deign to protect others, of course, provided that the assassination plan is not leaked.
Najeta said in a deep voice: "In short, be careful, although this time it is all dispatched, but, Xia Lan, Zhang Hao, you two don't have to directly interfere in this mission." ”
"What?" Zhang Hao was stunned for a moment, and then retorted dissatisfiedly: "This is too unfair! D's ace killer bar. ”
Everyone laughed, and Najeta shrugged, "You're wrong. With that kind of extraordinary imperial tool, it is indeed not an exaggeration to say that you are an ace killer, so I have another task I want you to carry out. ”
"Please." Xia Lan had an uneasy premonition, due to the intervention of the Mist Person, all kinds of unpredictable situations followed, which was not a good thing for them who were still in the early stage.
"According to the information of the headquarters intelligence network, the imperial prison warden was taken away."
Without waiting for Najeta to finish speaking, Zhang Hao couldn't help but answer: "It was the prison executioner who beheaded Zanke and grabbed it, right?" ”
"Nope."
Najeta shook her head, and said with a puzzled expression: "It is a female streamer who was once powerless, a noble lady who was once wiped out, Arya, the minister's daughter, and the current captain of the imperial capital garrison. ”
"What?!" Compared to Zhang Hao's surprised reaction, Xia Lan seemed much calmer, after all, Xia Lan knew that Arya's true identity was Su Shu, and it was not surprising that he robbed the warden Emperor Gu.
Najeta said with some mockery: "Although I don't want to say it, I think that the headquarters has coveted the Warden's Imperial Gu for a long time, and the weak eldest lady at the beginning now openly admits that she is the daughter of the minister and also holds an important position in the empire, so there are enough reasons to attack her." So, Zhang Hao, Xia Lan, your mission this time is to assassinate Arya, recover the imperial tool and send it to the headquarters, and this is also a test for you, don't let everyone down. ”
After the surprise, Zhang Hao quickly calmed down, although he didn't like the nasty feeling of killing a beautiful girl with his own hands, but Arya in his impression was definitely not a really kind lady, and it didn't make him have any psychological burden.
On the other hand, Xia Lan was calmer than anyone else on the surface, but he set off a monstrous wave in his heart, and he never expected that the official showdown with Su Shu would happen so soon.
Without knowing it, can the powerless Su Shu resist a strict assassination with the kind of imperial tool of the warden?
To be honest, she has a full grasp of assassination, especially with Zhang Hao, the two emperor envoys with amazing sword skills want to kill, Su Shu has no chance of surviving at all, but-
Can you do it?
But even if you escape this time, won't there be a next time?
At the end of the day, why are they killing each other? Isn't there a solution to this mission?
No matter how cranky Xia Lan is, the task has been decided, and he will start as soon as it is late at night, and there is no room for refutation.
……
In the middle of the night, everything is silent.
The lights in the Imperial Capital Garrison were fading, and the two members of the garrison on night duty yawned and leaned against the door, not thinking that any thug would dare to trespass into what was called the most terrifying place after the Imperial Palace.
However, the common people are extremely afraid of the guards, but it is not the same for the strong.
Burst!
Without warning, blood splattered from the neck, and without a sound, the two sleepy and lax members of the garrison collapsed in the silent slaughter.
"I've solved it on my side." Zhang Hao, who fell from the sky, wiped the blood on the sword and smiled lightly at Xia Lan, who fell on the other side.
Killing people has long been a habitual thing, and on the battlefield from scratch, Zhang Hao has not beheaded enemy generals, not to mention that the target is the personnel of the garrison with bad records.
"Let's go, hurry up and solve the target, I'm hungry." Just as Zhang Hao was about to walk in, Xia Lan suddenly grabbed him, Zhang Hao turned his head in astonishment, only to see Xia Lan closing his eyes and seeming to be meditating.
"Something is wrong...... Inside, there is no one. ”
……
At the same time, the main detachment of the night raid also began to officially carry out its mission.
Iokar's mansion is located on the outskirts of the imperial capital.
At this time, on a hidden mountain cliff, a girl in a pink skirt is fiddling with the imperial tool that looks like a sniper rifle, it is none other than Ma Yin, one of the members of the night raid, who is responsible for directly sniping the mission target from a distance, while the other companions are ambushed elsewhere to annihilate the pursuers.
"I say, Mayne, are you all right?" At Mayne's side, a green-haired teenager casually holds a telescope, he is Lubbon, a member of the Night Raid, who is responsible for guarding the sniper target.
If it weren't for the fact that she heard that the four Rakshasa ghosts might appear, Imayin's arrogance didn't need anyone to protect her at all, and in her opinion, she could leave in style after hitting the target directly with one shot, so that she felt that the chattering Lubbock at the moment was really redundant.
Bite the right moment for the target to come out of the house and kill with one hit.
However, nearly ten minutes have passed, and there is still no movement at the door of the mansion, which has a source for information.
"No, I can't see anything, will that guy really show up?" Lubbo tried to search for his target with a telescope, but was never in sight.
"Hmmm......"
Ma Yin suddenly had a feeling that something was wrong, the tip of her nose moved slightly, and she said solemnly: "Lubbock, do you smell it?" ”
"Huh?" Lubbock sniffed vigorously for some reason, and a pungent smell was filling the air, but because the smell was not very strong, and the weather was hot and humid, and the smell of insects and flowers in the mountains and forests was mixed in, it was difficult to distinguish it for a while.
"What the hell ......is this" Ma Yin's face was tense, keenly analyzing the taste, suddenly put down the gun in his hand, a pair of beautiful eyes widened, and blurted out: "It's the smell of gunpowder!" Lubbonch! Let's go—"
Rumble!!
An earth-shattering explosion suddenly resounded in the sky, accompanied by a huge mushroom-shaped explosion cloud lifted from the mountain forest, the light was as dazzling as the sun, illuminating the entire night sky like a scorching day, as if the sky was about to be torn to pieces by this sudden powerful explosion, especially the mountain that was in the center of the explosion and expanded outward at high temperature was almost shattered and collapsed, which showed that the power of the explosion was too terrifying.
On the hills thousands of kilometers away from the mountain forest, as the night fog quickly dispersed, under the moonlit night, a blonde girl looked up at the shocking scene like a nuclear explosion in the distance.
"Beautiful! Sure enough, only the explosion is the most fashionable! ”
At this moment, there was a passionate and somewhat bewitching laugh behind her, and the blonde girl turned back indifferently, only to see a mature man in a white coat spread his hands as if to meet the explosion in the distance.
The man in the white coat wore glasses and a beard, and while holding up his cheeks, he said enchantingly and confidently: "However, you still have to pay attention to your impression, that is the real fashion, the cultivation of men...... Forget it, Lord Arya, under the power of the newly developed super-high explosives I planted, those killers are now completely gone. ”
There is no doubt that this mature man with a somewhat feminine demeanor, tone and action is the genius scientist of the Empire, Dr. Fashion, whose technology is very well-known even in the Western Kingdom, and in the original book, he is the only one who can only be eliminated by sending out a night raid, no matter what aspect of strength is combined, it is worthy of being one of the strongest.
Thanks to the fact that Seleuc had an intersection with Dr. Fashion, and Su Shu, who knew that he was powerful, deliberately recruited him into the imperial capital secretly, and planted heavy explosives on the hills around the mansion in advance, so as to give a devastating blow to the night raid at one time.
Of course, she didn't expect the explosives alone to wipe out the night attack, but injuries were inevitable, and in her estimation, Mayne, who was in charge of sniping the target, would definitely be killed, after all, she could estimate the approximate location of Main's sniping, so she planted more explosives.
Not only is it intended to hit the night attack hard, but the explosion even turned Iokar's mansion upside down, as an ordinary person, Iokar is absolutely dead and buried, presumably seeing the explosion, the four Rakshasa ghosts will act immediately and tear each other apart with the severely injured members of the night raid, and both sides are afraid that they will think that the other party did it, as long as the matter is not revealed, it is an unsolved case that will never be closed.
"This matter must not be publicized to the public, this is the minister's order." Su Shu stared at Dr. Fashion, the silver headband on her forehead shone faintly, and under the reflection of the faint blue moonlight, her beautiful face was as delicate and beautiful as an elf but exuded a strong evil aura, which was enough to make most men want to conquer madly.
However, Dr. Fashion was unmoved, and only bowed gracefully, and smiled disapprovingly, "The Minister's order?" It doesn't matter, as long as I can show it to my heart's content. Lord Arya, from the first time I saw you, I thought that you were an existence destined to turn the world upside down, and the expansion of ambition and **, with my fashion troops, I will definitely be able to bring the most beautiful new fashion to this boring empire! ”
"Really? Whatever you want. Su Shu turned her head uncomfortably, she wasn't sure if her emperor had an effect in exchange for Dr. Fashion's approval, or because Dr. Fashion was originally a crazy person, no matter how crazy things he did, it didn't matter, but in any case, as long as he was like-minded or smelly, it was nothing.
