Chapter 342: Wizard Killer
"So, the wizard wants you to arrange a meeting with the boss of the Nine Rings?" Catwoman's tone sounded nonchalant as she sat on the eaves with her legs folded, playing with her paws leisurely.
Cheese's desperate spell casting while underground, has completely revealed his identity, and it is not unusual for the news that the news of the killers who are active in the shadows has now reached her ears.
"Yes. Jerry stood aside, his eyes looking at the other from behind, thinking about what his chances of winning would be if he made a move at this point. Maybe it's not worth it for him to go to war directly, including some of the decisions of the Cheese Guys, the nezumi is engaged in a dangerous fishing activity, and he has to wait until the fish have lost their guard before he can mix in the hook at the next feeding.
"Oh, what an arrogant idea. But it's okay, just let him go, the caster is always a troublesome guy, and one less is one. The female killer spoke in a bad tone, but not at Cheese, and she seemed to have a deep hatred for the caster.
In fact, combined with the situation of bestiality, I am afraid that this hatred is not groundless, and she must have had unpleasant memories with wizards when she was growing up.
"He's different, he's a good... I mean, a very powerful wizard, more powerful than anyone I've ever met or heard. If it was in the City of Ten Thousand Laws, he would definitely be able to hold a position above the lecturer. I don't know how important that is to you than the bounty, but it wouldn't be a wise decision to be an enemy of such a spellcaster. The nezumi tried to break the will of the other party, but in exchange for a sneer.
"So what's the matter, in this world it's either killing or being killed, you give a knife to a child, and he has the ability to kill you. The wizard is just holding a knife that is more difficult to see than the others, and the blood that spurts out after slitting his throat is the same. She lowered her palms and turned to look at Jerry with an unpredictable smile. If she didn't have a cat-like face, this smile would have been charming.
Besides, the person he was going to meet was the boss of the Nine Rings Gang, the nickname of the wizard killer was not called in vain, and this meeting was not enough to say that it was not enough to enter the tiger's mouth, and it was completely self-defeating. ”
"Kill yourself?" the nezumi had also heard of the nickname of the so-called wizard killer, who was said to have died enough to fill the street with a stake of human heads every three steps.
Such rumors are everywhere, driving away a few wild dogs and saying that they have repelled the wolves, bullying stunted gnomes is saying that they have defeated the dwarves head-on, and no one knows how much water the so-called wizard killer has.
That's why he didn't tell Cheese this message, because it seemed stupid and ridiculous to him, most people in this world don't know much about magic, let alone wizards.
"You sound confident in him. Catwoman stared at Jerry with interest, as if it was more important than discussing how to kill the mage than observing how the nezumi reacted to it. This feeling of difficulty grasping the point of thought made Jerry helpless with her, sometimes he couldn't understand her purpose at all, and when she was thirsty, she might want him to sing.
However, she can use these nonsensical words and actions to hold the other party in her hands, and you seem to be doing everything wrong in front of her, and you can only feel a little relieved when she gives you a little fluttering praise, but you will soon worry about whether it is a trap.
In the face of this kind of person, Jerry's strategy is not to dance with her, perhaps in terms of means, he can deal with her, but what the nezumi wants to do has never changed. He wants to stop her, if force can't be achieved, then first pretend to cooperate, share information, do things for her, and then hide a little in every little thing, lay the groundwork for the final victory, and silently wait for that moment to come. Did Catwoman know Jerry's thoughts? She probably did, but she wouldn't show it, because then there would be no room between them, and she would have to kill the mouse, what a waste.
"What he and I have been through allows me to say that. I'm not like you, I don't like deceit, it can bring you temporary benefits, but it will eventually bring long-term hidden dangers. ”
Get up, roll, stand still. A series of movements in the soft and boneless Catwoman are done in only a split second. She looked at Jerry condescendingly, her fingers with sharp nails sliding back and forth on the nezute's chin with unusual gentleness, as if she were stroking a small animal.
"It seems that meeting acquaintances has given you some self-confidence, have you forgotten how ugly I have beaten? Otherwise, I have a way to make you miserable, you second-rate! You're just a homeless rat, and I can eat you at any time. ”
One thing Catwoman may have misunderstood, Jerry was afraid of her, but Jerry was never afraid of death. The overcoming of the fear of death, or rather the indifference to the process of death, was the first thing his mentor taught him, that the Assassin could value his life, but should not run away from it.
Reverence is not compromise, and in the somewhat playful words of Clarus, as an Assassin, you have to die when you deserve to die, and don't justify yourself. But relatively, when death is worthless, you must never fight, because there is only one life, and if you don't fight, you will never fight again. As for the seemingly contradictory decision of how to choose, it was the experience of the Assassins.
As early as the time when he was chased to the hideout by Catwoman and betrayed by the broker, the nezumi had already acquiesced in his death, he would try to resist, and he would actively plan to fight back, but he could accept death when he died before that. Therefore, Jerry is in a sense more difficult to deal with than before, a man who is ready to die, he is afraid of not much. So in the face of the threat, he smiled.
"Don't say that, my teacher only thinks of himself as a third-rate killer, and I'm far inferior to him, so how can I be embarrassed to say that it's second-rate. You don't want to listen to what I say, just don't say it. ”
Catwoman blinked, Jerry's reaction was a little different from what she expected, and in all fairness, the Nezumi was definitely more than second-rate in the killer industry, he had surpassed most of his peers in the city, and even against her only because they were the same type of assassin in frontal combat, and her physical fitness was superior to him in all aspects.
However, her original intention was to elevate herself by belittling the rat man, Jerry is a second-rate implication that she is first-rate, but now the rat man directly claims that she is not even as good as a third-rate, doesn't this mean that she is also a third-rate killer?
But in the face of this smiling mouse, she didn't know what to say for a while, and the interest she had just had was gone. Putting down her hand, she turned to leave, and looked sideways at Jerry as she was about to jump off the roof, "If you can't get in touch with the Nine Rings Gang, leave it to me." I've done business with those people, and I'm more or less talkative. ”
