Ten knights came in a majestic manner, ready to carry out the orders of some people with the momentum of stepping on everything, but in an instant, they were crushed by a whole cavalry regiment that suddenly appeared, and such things had happened three times in just two days.

For the Assassin Shaun, the scene that happened in front of him made him feel a chill for no reason.

This guy who was wearing leather armor and hiding in the woods outside the manor at this time was an assassin sent by Count Durant - in terms of strength, Sean, who had advanced to level 6, was already absolutely powerful, so when he came here, he was confident that he would not be discovered by anyone, and he was confident that he would complete all the orders given by the lord.

For a long time, Sean has always been cultivated by Earl Durant as a "killer feature". Although aristocrats usually do not like to use "assassination" to get rid of political opponents, if it really touches the bottom line or there is enough reason, this method of physical elimination is definitely the most direct and effective method.

So Shaun, who has a good talent, has become Durant's proud hole card - Durant's stability over the years is half of Shaun's credit.

But after witnessing those knights being besieged, Sean instinctively felt uneasy.

"Traitors, they must be dealt with."

"Treason..."

Sean, who was hiding in the bushes, looked at the regrouping group in the distance, and muttered the word in a low voice—he knew better than anyone that he was here to help Count Durant erase the evidence of "treason".

"Now it seems... It's too late. ”

Thinking back to Viscount Tranca, who was easily assassinated by himself not long ago, Sean always felt that something was wrong in his heart... Tranka is too easy to kill, the guards guarding are extremely lax, and there is no sense of changing the guard at all, and the unsuspecting Tranka is like a pig and sheep waiting to be slaughtered, and there is no technical content in assassination.

Sean clearly remembers that when he found the other party, the guy's eyes widened and seemed to want to say something, but Sean was never interested in listening to the target's nonsense, so when his dagger slashed the other party's throat, the viscount only had time to say a name before he completely swallowed.

"What did he say? Dee, or 'Roddy,' ”

Sean didn't care too much, and solved the viscount who might leak secrets, and he came to this manor according to the address given by the earl, but before he could do it, the scene in front of him made him understand... After all, I came one step too late

These cunning guys actually knew that there were traitors in the kingdom, so they used this manor as a "bait", just waiting for those nobles who were in a hurry to destroy the evidence to send people stupidly, and then catch turtles in the urn and destroy them one by one...

"Waiting for the rabbit" doesn't sound realistic at first, but with the public opinion atmosphere created by Angmar, coupled with this unknown but deeply hidden team, the originally seemingly naïve plan is really feasible

If this continues, the traitors hiding behind the scenes will be unable to hold back and prepare to lead the team to come over in person, and when the time comes...

When Sean thought of this, he only felt a little cold sweat appear on his forehead - he had to go back, and immediately inform the lord of this information before the other party found out

With such a thought in his heart, Sean held his breath slightly, turned around and prepared to leave. In the distance, Akasha was raising her hand to release her healing magic, and the arrested knights had been escorted to the rear of the manor, and the sound of the horse's hooves gradually dispersed, and in a short time, only a few figures were left in the front of the manor who were erasing the blood on the ground.

"The strength is not too strong, it should be able to handle it... These guys seem to be very disciplined though. ”

Sean continued to retreat, briefly assessing the combat power of those scouts in his heart, but just when he thought he was absolutely safe, the necklace on his chest suddenly emitted a faint fluctuation of magical power-

"Duh"

Almost instinctively, Sean dodged an arrow that flew close to his cheek.

This chain is ancestral and has a role in warning of danger. It is precisely because of its help that Sean has left the title of "Seer" in his career of licking blood from the knife edge over the years... And let him escape countless assassinations that instinctively lead to death.

However, this necklace can't be reminded every time, so after dodging the first arrow, Sean can only rely on his ability to start to accelerate the dodge - but because the movement is a little slower, his shoulder will be grazed by the second arrow that follows, if it is not for the "sprint" to start in time, and there is a tree in front of him for him to dodge, I am afraid that the third arrow will definitely be shot by itself

The effect of "Sprinting" is to increase the speed by 70 for 10 seconds, and the skill effect is better than the Ranger's "Rush", but even so, Sean, who was leaning against the tree, still glanced at his left shoulder in a cold sweat...

How can it be... With such a fast rate of fire?

He was horrified in his heart, and then his figure slowly disappeared into the woodland. "Stealth" activated, and after calming down his breath slightly, Sean's confidence gradually recovered, and he immediately confirmed the direction of the arrow, pulled out two daggers, and slowly moved over - speaking of "stealth" skills, he was confident that no one could investigate in such an environment.

Archers? As long as he is close, Sean is just as confident that he can use his explosive power to kill the other party in a short period of time

Sean is absolutely confident in his ability to assassinate... In at least the last eight years, he has never missed a beat, even in a head-on encounter

With this thought in mind, Sean clenched his dagger and walked dozens of steps against the shadow, but stopped with some confusion - because he found that he couldn't find the target at all.

This brief hesitation caused his movements to pause slightly, and in this moment of distraction, a phantom suddenly flickered between the trees beside Sean

Instinctively swinging the dagger, Sean didn't even look back and made an attack move, but then he felt that his waist was being severely weighed, and his whole body lost its center of gravity, and involuntarily stepped out to the side...

When he looked back, he could only see a face in his field of vision that was exactly the same as the bark of a tree staring at him, and the effect of the "concealment technique" was disappearing, but the indifference in that gaze made Sean's heart chill, and the bow and arrow in the other party's hand had been raised in just half a second

He steadied himself as he raised his dagger and prepared to block - for no apparent reason, a hint of luck rose in his heart...

The opponent is still too tender, using a short bow at such a distance, he is ninety percent sure of catching the offensive trajectory and counterattacking within a second

With such confidence, he adjusted his center of gravity, but before he could use any skills, the opponent's arrow was already fired.

A sinister smile appeared at the corner of Sean's mouth, but in the next moment, he watched as the attacking arrow pierced his thigh...

The raised dagger was two centimeters from the arrow.

He also blocked the second and third arrows that followed, but he was a step slower anyway

"This can't-"

"Plop"
