Chapter 47: The Assassins

Through the smoke from the arena, Xiu Yin quickly moved towards the east side of the arena after identifying the direction.

At this time, Xiu Yin's mind gradually calmed down, "The targets of these assassins should be the Marquis and those envoys, so it should be a relatively safe place in the martial arts arena......

Xiuin ran to a burning pavilion where various weapons were supposed to be stored, but most of them were made of wood and had burned out in the flames.

Originally, Xiu Yin also wanted to find a weapon for self-defense here, after all, he had released the fireball technique five times in a row in the previous rushing game, and Xiu Yin, who only had level 2 spiritual power, was already lacking in soul power.

"Ahem......"

Xiuin hunched over in the smoke and moved to another nearby pavilion to find that it was also on fire, but as luck would have it, he found a short sword out of the range of the flames, which was supposed to have been thrown outside by the weapon rack in the pavilion when it fell.

With a weapon in his hand, Xiu Yin's confidence has also increased a little, but when he looked at the entire martial arts arena again, he saw some problems.

"All the pavilions where the weapons were stored were ablaze...... "It was no coincidence that Xiu was sure that this was not a coincidence, "someone knows the information inside the Marquis's castle, and that is... There are spies!"

The word spy was not uncommon in the original world of Xiuin, especially in times of peace.

Looking back at the outer walls of the castle, Xiu Yin felt that although there was no evidence for his suspicion, his guess was not unreasonable from the fact that these Assassins could easily climb the walls.

Although the castle guards may be a little loose during the game, it is obviously impossible to climb the outer walls of the castle in broad daylight with crossbows.

If you want to climb the outer wall of the castle at a height of seven or eight meters, you can go up the stairs on the inner side of the city wall very calmly if there happens to be an internal response among the guards on duty......

"But who wants the marquis to die......

Xiu Yin hid behind a large bluestone on the outside of the martial arts arena, and this extra material when paving the martial arts arena became Xiu Yin's best cover.

Poking out half of his head slightly, Xiu Yin noticed that the crossbow seemed to have stopped firing at this point, and the assassins must have known that the attack effect was not ideal when the Marquis Guard raised their shields.

But the assassins were obviously not going to give up easily, and when Xiu Yin looked there again on the seven or eight meters high wall, he saw several figures falling from above, and by the smoke in the arena, these people were hunched over and running directly to the VIP platform on the south side.

"So fast!"

In Xiu Yin's shocked expression, these figures went from falling into the martial arts arena, and then rushing from the north side of the martial arts arena to the south side, it only took Xiu Yin to blink twice!

Xiuin's first reaction was that these assassins were so strong!

"Suffer!"

Xiu Yin didn't care about the Marquis and those envoys, he was particularly worried about the safety of his father Xiuke, after all, in this world, only Xiuke was left, and of course there was Lin Ke who was extremely incompatible with him.

Speaking of Lin Ke, Xiu Yin suddenly sounded, and his father said that Lin Ke would also come to the Marquis Castle, but in Xiu Yin's impression, he didn't seem to be found.

"Forget it, don't think about that guy yet, it's the VIP desk that worries people the most......"

Xiu Yin was hesitating to approach the VIP stage, and several figures should have already arrived at the VIP stage at this time.

Boom –

Just as Xiu Yin hesitated, a violent explosion suddenly sounded on the VIP stage.

Then came the sounds of women screaming in panic, and many of the guests ran out of the staircase on the other side of the VIP table, and the smoke was so thick that Xiu couldn't tell if there was a father among them.

Xiu Yin gritted his teeth, and for the sake of his father's safety, he had to go up.

"Who are you, dare to attack the lord!"

As Xiuin approached the VIP stage, he heard the voice of Lynnkov, the manager.

"Jie Ji ......" a laugh that made Xiu Yin shudder came out, "One-handed fast sword Kiroke, the honorary elder of the Mage Guild, Sean, it's nothing more than that when I saw it today......"

By this time, Xiu Yin had approached the edge of a window in the VIP table, and slowly poked his head out to look inside.

Several gorgeously dressed envoys of the royal capital had already prostrated on the ground at this time, looking like they were more than lucky, most of the guests seemed to have dispersed, and the interior of the VIP desk was filled with the sound of fighting with swords from time to time.

Deeper, Xiuin's gaze was filled with five assassins dressed in black, confronting the Marquis's guard, the one-handed sword Kirok, the Magister Master Shaun, and the castle steward Lynkov.

The Marquis's guards numbered more than a dozen people, but they were suppressed to death by two men in black, and the Marquis himself was standing behind them in fear, his face full of panic without any of the majesty he had had spoken to the dignitaries before.

Kirok, Sean, and Lynnkov were each entangled by an Assassin.

"The target of the assassins is indeed the Marquis. "Xiu Yin has already seen the situation inside.

"But compared to them, Your Excellency seems to be weaker, and you ...... it."

Listening to the words and the sound of cautious laughter, Xiu knew that it was the Assassin who was deliberately provoking Lynkov.

Sure enough, Lynkov's furious voice was immediately heard in the VIP stage, "Dare thief, suffer death!"

Bang!

Bang!

There was another clash of blades.

Xiu Yin looked in the other direction through a gap in the VIP table that had been blown out in the explosion just now.

It was the figure of Kirook, a one-handed fast sword.

Both Kilok and the assassin were covered in a blue glow, and Xiu knew that it was because they both had water-type soul power.

Kilok deserves to be nicknamed the one-handed fast sword.

Whoosh!

The long sword in his right hand seemed to turn into a blue shadow, and after a while, he could feel a damp aura wherever Xiu Yin was.

"Worthy of being the captain of the detachment of the Starlight Knights, a person who cultivates physical strength actually transforms the soul power of the water attribute into water qi with a physical form when he swings his sword. ”

However, although the assassin was slightly inferior in momentum, a short sword in his hand was also very tightly defended under the blue glow, blocking all of Killok's attacks.

Obviously, this was to hold off Kirok, not to defeat him.

What attracted Xiu Yin the most was that in the other direction, there were bursts of fluctuations of elemental magic, that is, the fluctuations of spiritual power that Xiu Yin was most familiar with.

Mages and warriors use soul power slightly differently.

It can be compared to the fact that a warrior uses his hands and feet to carry out the power of soul power, while a mage uses his brain.

The mage uses spiritual power to form another state that can be embodied by the elements in nature, so as to generate magical attacks such as fireballs, water bombs, and wind blades.

Therefore, when the mage casts the spell, it will inevitably affect the elements in the surrounding environment to a certain degree of fluctuations, and these fluctuations will also be mixed with some spiritual power of the caster.

In the same way, if you practice the cause of spiritual power, you can clearly feel the power of Master Sean.

Xiu Yin didn't want to miss a good battle of mages, and if he could get some experience from Master Sean's actual combat, it would be a hundred benefits and no harm to Xiu Yin, so he stared at Sean fiercely.

Although mages are not good at melee combat, because mages in this era are not very active and their numbers are not as numerous as before, many warriors lack experience in actual combat with mages, and the same is true of the black-clad assassin in front of Master Sean.

In front of the wind shield released by Master Sean's left hand, the black-clothed assassin did not take advantage of it, on the contrary, Sean could release a wind blade from his right hand in the interval between the assassin's attacks, causing the assassin to dodge in a little embarrassment.

Seeing this scene, Xiu Yin admired in his heart, "It's so strong, it turns out that this is the melee combat method of the wind mage!"
