Chapter 168: A Leap of Faith

Eleven hours from post-infection.

Virus coverage: 0.000001%

Yangdu is not a well-known station of the Tacheng Knights, a luxurious manor.

In the study of Carol, the current head of the Knights, who defeated the Knight Commander in one fell swoop yesterday, suddenly increased in strength.

The corpse fell to the ground...

Because he didn't have a tongue, he couldn't even make a sound of crying for help, and the wound on the neck of the corpse on the ground was very hideous, and it was visually obliterated by a sharp dagger, clean and neat!

And beside the corpse's surprised face, there stood a man......

The presence of the body covered in pitch-black leather armor, even under the illumination of the light, this figure seemed to loom.

The dagger he pinned to his waist was a murder weapon.

After confirming Carol's death, he took out a small worn-out notebook, opened it, and used the blood of the enemy to make a large red cross on the side with Carol's picture printed.

On the same side of the book, there are many people on the same list as Carol, and Carol is the last poor worm to be marked with a red cross for death.

He was not an ordinary assassin, but an organized ......

He wears a dark black dragon pupil-shaped coat of arms on his chest, a sign of his membership in a certain order.

In this world, the knights who dare to use the body of a dragon to form a badge all belong directly to the empire, so that the supreme dragon god symbolizes the knights.

"Dark Dragon's Pupil"

It's like darkness hidden under the bustling and gorgeous cloak of the central capital.

In the royal family of the empire, there is also such a shadow army.

They are not subordinate to any department of the state, and do not obey the orders of any nobles or officials of the state! They only obeyed the orders of His Royal Highness the Emperor himself.

Few people know of their existence, forever hiding in the shadow of the glory of the Empire, silently, but extremely deadly!

If there is no organization called "Undertaker", perhaps they will take the place of the Undertaker and become the perverted ghost that everyone in the empire talks about, the ghost who asks for their lives!

Now, those who don't understand the rules have angered the emperor, so that he can release these ghosts and kill every being who violates the rules set by the empire.

Today, he is one goal away from completing his mission.

Seventy-two unstable elements who have received the name of the god potion under the command of the Vernate family have been assassinated by his own hands!

The last and most dangerous one.

He flipped the pamphlet in his hand to the last page, and it was exactly when Lu Qiu was holding a paddle in his hand in the underground casino, biting candy in his mouth, like a child.

I don't know who recorded this scene with a video magic stone......

I don't know if I'm hanging on the head of that lady's bed now.

Lu Qiu, who looks like this, looks like a harmless young man no matter how he looks at it.

It's just that as the assassination mission, he knows all the details of Lu Qiu since he appeared......

And he knew that the god surname potion possessed by the dead body lying at his feet in front of him was given to him by Lu Qiu!

So no matter what, Lu Qiu will definitely not be able to stay!

He drew a big red circle on Lu Qiu's photo with blood, and was just about to put away the portrait and leave here.

The perennial intuition between death and death frantically conveyed a message in his mind!

Dangerous!

He subconsciously tilted his head sideways.

The cold blade with murderous intent slashed through his face, piercing the veil that shrouded his face, revealing the face of a cold and emaciated middle-aged man!

Dodging the mortal blow, he pulled out the dagger pinned to his waist almost like lightning and slammed it into the shadow.

Who the hell is it? His expression was very calm, but he was shocked inside!

As a stalker, he was able to approach his body without even noticing him......

It's simply impossible.

It's just that reality gave him an answer, and the gray figure flickered slightly, and another sword pierced.

This time he saw clearly, it was a silver-white sword with a hint of dark green!

It's a poisoned blade!

The life and death of an assassin is often a matter of thought, and if a blow fails, he will immediately flee thousands of miles away.

Obviously, the other party didn't have this kind of common sense, he raised his hand and easily defused the attack of the assassination rookie, and while blocking the blade of the sword, the dagger in his hand stabbed the opponent's face along the blade!

It's just that there is no sound of daggers entering the flesh, but the sound of steel colliding with steel!

The gray-white figure was knocked back a few steps by his tremendous strength.

Now he finally saw clearly who the person who attacked him was!

The mask of steel fell to the ground, and under the gray-white hood, was a young face......

Lu Qiu? He repeatedly compared the memories in his mind, and the striking appearance and scarlet pupils could not be wrong!

At present, the most wanted criminal is wanted in the entire central capital...... Her Royal Highness's Deacon Lu Qiu!

But he also noticed the outfit on the other side.

This outfit... His head was clouded, and a huge amount of information poured into his brain...

Undertaker?

The deacon next to the princess is the undertaker......

There is also a god surname potion......

All the clues are connected, and as a shadow of allegiance to the Empire, they must be adept at dealing with such sordid cases.

After he thought that he was gradually figuring out the truth of this matter, he found that he couldn't let this guy escape!

Although he is very unwilling, since he is a mourner, it is normal for his stealth ability to be stronger than himself, and as for the close-quarters white-knuckle battle, he is better than the undertaker!

Get him!

But Lu Qiu stepped back, his body suddenly broke out of the window, climbed over the roof of a building, and began to flee!

Did you get the guess right? What did you guess? Lu Qiu teasingly glanced at the shadow running after him behind him.

"The fifth dragon pupil here! Discover the First Rank Most Wanted, Lu Qiu! Now on the seventh street of the rear knight camp area! Fleeing to the business district ahead! The goal is a member of the undertaker, repeat that he is a member of the undertaker! The real goal of the undertaker is to assassinate the emperor! ”

Hear the members of the dark red pupils behind him say to the other members through the communication crystal.

Lu Qiu really had a feeling of being dumbfounded!

What kind of brain can come up with the goal of the mourners to assassinate the emperor?

But this is also a matter of common sense, the best way to assassinate the emperor, becoming the deacon of the new imperial daughter is definitely the best choice.

Now that they have decided, Lu Qiu has nothing to say.

The off-white cloak fluttered behind Lu Qiu, like a pair of gray-white wings.

Lu Qiu's figure jumped on top of one building after another, running towards the most prosperous business district with the moonlight on his back!

The shadows behind him chased after him.

Just when Lu Qiu crossed the gap between the two rooms and happened to be standing on the ground, he found that a crossbow bolt was actually shooting at him!

Lu Qiu dodged sideways, and found that a pitch-black figure was ushered in again.

"The First Dragon Pupil is heading there!"

"The second dragon pupil has arrived!"

"Intercepting target ......"

"Target Escape, Repeat Target Escape!"

There is no command center, there is no commander, everyone in this knight is a command center, and everyone is a knight leader!

They quickly exchanged their respective information, capturing Lu Qiu's traces, and in an instant, ten pitch-black shadows passed through the moonlight, crossed one building after another, and quickly walked towards Lu Qiu!

'Bell ......'

In front of Lu Qiu, a tall bell tower that could almost overlook the whole city sounded the bell that the time had reached midnight.

At the same time, it also indicates that Lu Qiu has stepped into the most prosperous position in the central capital......

Downtown!

The clock tower blocked Lu Qiu's way, and the group of shadows actually surrounded and suppressed from all directions, without a single gap, except for the clock tower behind him, Lu Qiu had nowhere to escape!

Then climb!

Lu Qiu turned around and stepped on the white stone wall of the bell tower, without using the power of the blood clan, through his own strength, looking for the part of the clock tower that has been in disrepair all year round and sunken or protruding from the wind and rain, using his hands and feet at the same time, quickly climbing up.

Shout!

The sound of breaking wind hits.

With Lu Qiu's keen perception, he immediately turned sideways again, and a crossbow bolt almost grazed the ** of Lu Qiu's left hand and shot into the wall of the clock tower on the left hand side!

The shadow carrying the crossbow aimed at Lu Qiu below, shooting one precise crossbow after another......

The rest of the people rushed upwards at a speed that was not much slower than Lu Qiu!

The vampire's perception and physical fitness had reached its peak by the time midnight came.

Almost every moment the crossbow bolt hits, Lu Qiu can dodge! At the same time, with the help of these arrows that shot into the wall as a fulcrum, he quickly climbed towards the top of the clock tower!

Now Lu Qiu is like a trapped beast with no way out.

And Lu Qiu happened to be playing this role.

Finally, Lu Qiu climbed to the top and looked at the prosperity of the central capital at night from the top of the clock tower.

The most striking thing is the theater in the east, which looks like the Colosseum!

Even if it's midnight, it's lit up!

Today is a day when the people of the central capital feel panic, and it is also a day when the people of the central capital feel the frenzy!

It's not just Her Royal Highness who may be the spokesperson of Lord Ryujin, the world's number one singer Xingluo. Vernat, in order to appease the emotions of the people, actually made a comeback at the No. 1 Opera House in Yangdu and held a super grand concert! And Her Royal Highness will also appear......

The suppression of the virus area has almost been cleaned up after Naiya's blood confirmed that it can cure the virus, so Naye happily accepted Xingluo's invitation.

I guess those two little guys are talking very happily in the backstage dressing room.

Termination tonight is a sleepless night.

For anyone, including Lu Qiu!

Lu Qiu looked at the shadows below that were rapidly approaching him...

At an altitude of almost 100 meters, Lu Qiu seems to have nowhere to escape?

No... Of course not......

Lu Qiu stood on the edge of the bell tower, looking at the small crowd below, turned around and spread his hands, feeling the wind blowing in the sky...... The off-white cloak fluttered.

"You've been arrested!" Finally someone climbed up, and he cried out loudly...... But it was too late.

Lu Qiu turned around and jumped down from the clock tower above 100 meters!

A skill that all assassins must learn!

A leap of faith!

However, there is no straw under the clock tower that can bear the weight of Lu Qiu's fall.

No straw is needed at all!

Lu Qiu adjusted his body in the sky, dodged a few crossbow arrows that were shot, and his body fell heavily to the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust, and the ground under his feet screamed sadly, and irregular cracks appeared!

There was no time to stay here any longer, and the shadows behind had already bitten tightly.

Lu Qiu looked at the direction and began to run briskly towards the infected area of the central capital! (To be continued.) )
