Chapter 991: Assassination (2)
Xia He knew very well that the entire duke was an interest group with itself as the core. On the side of Little Sun City, the defense walls are now strong, and there are hundreds of people around the life structure, and the difficulty of assassination is too great.
On Xia Cheng's side, the Sith is often out and about, which is a good target to start.
However, on Xia Cheng's side, it is loose on the outside and tight on the inside, and there is no problem of assassins mixing in. And I'm in Xia City, so I can definitely sense it if a demigod comes.
There are only two people in the duke that can't afford to lose, and that is himself and the Sith.
No matter how powerful an assassin is, there is not much possibility for him to kill himself. Because the material of the Taiyin mirror has changed, the defense is far from the original.
This last line of defense is impregnable.
If you can break through the defense line of the Taiyin Mirror, it will not be a sudden means of an assassin, but a powerful force to crush it. So what level does it take to crush yourself?
Within a hundred levels, don't think about it.
If you add Medierri and Smith, it is impossible for a hundred levels to crush themselves.
Besides, he is now a demigod, and he also knows the limits of the world's power, and it seems that there is no trace, but in fact, he can still summarize the law.
It is impossible for a demigod to be an assassin, suppress his own level of power, disguise himself, and want to explode in an instant and reach the peak of his power, which is something he can't do.
Xia He instructed the life construction to be more careful, and he invested a lot more in this construction than Xia Ye at the beginning.
Moreover, the life structure has a subtle connection with Xia He's soul, and in the future, he will be the strongest immortal soldier under him, and he can't lose it. This kind of accidental gain, after the loss, may not be there again. Xia Ye was like this at the beginning, and he couldn't let Xia He create another one.
Xia He also told Andesias to protect the life structure.
Needless to say, Shrek now has a legendary mage, plus a legendary warrior, a swordsman or something, fourteen people. Fourteen legends, if you protect the life structure, the real appearance can be called luxurious.
And the life structure itself can exert the strength of level seventy-five or above.
Xia He didn't take it seriously, Shrek was very nervous, don't look at the fourteen legends he had on hand, a lot of magicians, and guards cavalry, but how could someone who dared to assassinate the duke be a weak person.
He also didn't know that Antitheas was a demigod, and that the duke had news of a demigod, and only the demigod himself knew.
On the side of Little Sun City, the Guards Mage Regiment began to investigate day and night, because it was also quite hard to try not to disturb the normal operation of the city.
Shrek himself had to work, and in the evening of this day, he received the following news, outside Little Sun City, in the northwest town, there were several suspicious people.
After several days of not catching a clue, Shrek immediately led someone there.
It was a small caravan, fifteen people, with large mechanical vehicles, two driving vehicles, and the other thirteen riding wooden horses.
The reason why it is suspicious is that the goods carried in the vehicle are low-level gems.
Here in Little Sun City, there are indeed low-grade gems that are purchased, but the price given is always not high, if you go a few hundred miles to the south, you can find a place with a higher purchase price.
The roads around Little Sun City are now in excellent condition, and there is no war, except for some spatial singularities that are considered threats.
But to do business, naturally you have to take risks, anyway, if you change to Shrek, he won't sell the purchase price here in Little Sun City.
To the east of Little Sun City is the port, and in the other three directions, there are small towns.
These small towns are the passes, not everyone can enter the Little Sun City, especially this kind of people with big carts and transporting goods, the goods on the car must be reported, and after inspection, they can be brought into the Little Sun City for trading.
Shrek suspects that it is because there are two legendary mages on the other side who escort the car.
In the empire, there are no robbers, especially on the dukedom side, in order to suppress the people left by Duke Zhesu, the means are quite bloody, and you may be killed on the spot if you grab a lollipop.
To say that a car of low-grade gems is indeed not low, but if two legendary mages are guards, the price of this guard is too high. Unless they have something else to sell. The problem is that if you sell anything, you have to report it in the town. If you don't report it, if you dare to sell it in Little Sun City, you will take it on the spot, but it doesn't matter who you are.
The profit of low-grade gems has never been too high in the Empire, and the open price of Little Sun City is low, as for letting two legendary mages escort it?
Besides, these two legendary mages are from the families of the nobles of the Northland, from the Great Northwest.
After the Northland nobles were subdued, the relationship with the dukedom has not been very good. In order to establish his authority, Xia He's methods were inevitably more intense, and the nickname of the Duke of Tombstone was obtained at that time.
Why do you want to trade, it's not very good to sell to the western part of the empire. There are also a lot of secondary and tertiary colleges over there, and the acquisition of gems is long-term.
Ran to Little Sun City to trade, this is crazy?
The town is in sight, and the tall city tower is seen in the distance, Shrek said in his heart, is this still called a small town, the height of the city tower is more than forty meters. Giants of ordinary stature are more than ten meters tall.
Of course, the size of the town is not too large, blocking the road to Little Sun City.
Outside of the town, there will be a few sentry fortresses stationed with robots. Occupying someone else's land is such a trouble. Although Duke Zhesu did not treat his people well, there were still people who were crazy and wanted to be loyal.
Shrek brought with him a hundred Iron Horsemen, fifty Battle Mages, and fifty Magical Heavy Warriors this time.
He had a clear sign on his body and a flag number, and the patrolling soldiers quickly informed the town, and when they entered the city, they were silent.
Shrek came directly to the mayor, who was a gray-haired old lady and a professional, and looked like she was in her early tens.
"My lord, what's the big deal with the Guards coming?" the old lady enthusiastically asked people to bring tea and water.
"It's not that the truckload is suspicious. ”
"Then you don't need to come in person, these people all have backgrounds, the documents are clear, not forgery. If you are suspicious, report it and don't let them into the city. ”
Shrek smiled, "Then how to do it, you still have to ask." ”
"What are you talking about, do you want me to bring it over?"
"No, I'll do it myself. People on your side, don't move, the two legendary mages over there, if there is really a problem, the fight will hurt the innocent. ”
"Legend, I'm going to stay away from this. "Auntie looked frightened.
Shrek smiled, he knew this aunt, the person who came down from the battlefield was almost disabled because of the damage to his spine.
After the Duke paid for her treatment, he forced her to retire on the grounds that she was too old, and came here to become a mayor. When she was in the army, she was already the deputy commander of a brigade.
Although the level is not high, but the ability to fight is strong.
This kind of veteran, with high merit, will also be polite.
She said that she meant to bring it over herself, which meant to bring the soldiers from the town to help in the battle, and Shrek meant that the other party was a legend, so don't make a mess.
Shrek, on the mayor's side, opened the two carriages of the accompanying car, and the two magic structures walked down, and then the soldiers went up and opened the boxes, releasing a hundred scorpion-shaped robots.
The procession followed Shrek silently to the hotel, where they waited in the distance.
Shrek took the five mages and calmly walked into the hotel. He pointed to the badge on his chest, the people behind the counter, and watched them walk to the second floor.
Only then did he emerge from the stairs, and in the hallway, the lights suddenly went out.
A golden light, lightning bolt towards Shrek. Shrek sneered and immediately gave the order to attack. The golden light passed through Shrek's body, but it was a phantom.
Shrek flickered and rushed into the hallway.
This hotel is not big, the second floor has been wrapped, and after Shrek flickered, his feet were cold, and he stepped directly on an ice trap.
Resist the Ring of Fire!
The flames burned on his legs, breaking the trap in an instant, and at the same time, his two legs, just like rockets, the sound of flames spraying out, after exploding, the sound of glass shattering nearby was heard.
The other five mages had an extra black barrier in front of them, isolating them from Shrek.
Shrek's figure slammed into a door, his hand reaching forward.
Death's Grip!
In the darkness, a teenager was grabbed by the neck, his eyes bulging out. As soon as Shrek's figure turned, there was an extra dagger on the young man's chest, and the assassin who was assassinating in the back saw the young man's protruding eyeballs shoot out and smash into his face, hot and hot.
"Is the assassination against me? What an honor......" Shrek's voice was like a dream, and the flame on his leg was not extinguished, and he spun on the spot, slammed upward, broke through the roof, and reached the third floor.
In the room on the third floor, four heavy swords stabbed at the same time.
Gravity!
The speed of the long sword suddenly slowed down, and Shrek fell straight back to the second floor, and the four heavy sword assassins moved forward, and a huge fireball flew up from the hole in the floor and exploded.
So far, Shrek has not used a single legendary spell, which is just a normal ordinary spell.
Last time, Xia He instructed the Guard Mage Regiment to conduct a training specifically for Shrek, and Shrek's level did not improve much, but the way of fighting and combat ability have undergone earth-shaking changes.
His battle is more in line with the concept of a mage designed by Xia He.
Anything other than magic, you have to know everything.
Shrek's battle is still releasing magic, but the idea of fighting is no longer the way of a mage in the traditional sense.
Break through the roof of the house, lure the enemy into attacking, and then the fireball annihilated, and with a time difference, it used a level 20 magic fireball to kill all four assassins.
Shrek raised his hand, and there was an extra short spear in his palm.
"Who is it? The nobles of the Northland should no longer have the courage to do so. It doesn't seem necessary to say anything to me, I'm just a guard. Against the words of my duke, such a trick is meaningless. ”
