Chapter 25: What the hell is going on?
On the stone steps, the paladin who stepped forward to protect the old bishop had already fought with the black-clothed assassin, and Gillian on the side looked frightened, obviously frightened by the scene in front of her, she had grown up under the care of her father and brothers since she was a child, and she had never encountered any danger at all, and the dagger that flashed with a ghostly light just now was the closest she was to death, and the chill on the dagger made her hair stand upside down. ?? ??? .?r?a n?ena`com
At that moment, the girl was swallowed up by great fear, and sat on the ground with a limp, and if it had not been for the fact that the blessing ceremony had already begun, she would have crawled away from here even if she had crawled.
"Don't be afraid, it's just a bunch of clowns, come, close your eyes, and it will all pass soon. Moteris comforted, and the old man's voice seemed to have magical power, which slowly calmed Gillian's frightened heart.
And the truth is indeed as the old bishop said, although this assassin who appeared out of nowhere has a strange body and terrifying explosive power, he is not the opponent of the eighth-order paladin after all, and gradually fell into the upper hand in this battle.
The Assassin's melee ability is already weaker than that of the knights, they are better at hiding in the dark, looking for opportunities for a fatal blow, and fleeing immediately if they miss a blow, once they are stopped by someone for the first time, and then the hard-fought battle is not their forte, not to mention that his opponent is still a paladin who is known for his defensive ability.
In fact, not long after the two fought, the black-clothed assassin was suppressed, not only did he no longer have the strength to attack the archbishop on the side, but even he himself was in danger, if it weren't for the super high agility, I am afraid that he would have been in danger at this moment.
And the worse thing is still to come, seeing that a grandson of the assassin Earl Nathan mixed in with the banquet resolutely activated the defense system in the Earl's Palace, dozens of magic arrays lit up at the same time, and then a huge magic crystal wall enveloped the entire Earl's Palace.
By the time the black-clad assassin realized what had happened, he had no way out, this crystal wall was obviously not something he could break through in a while, and it was too late for him to escape now.
But fortunately, there were a lot of guests outside, and most of them were either rich or expensive, because they were worried that they would accidentally injure other people, but the little young master of the Earl's Mansion did not dare to open those attacking magic arrays, but the guards who received the warning had already rushed over from all directions.
The Assassin's situation at the moment looked a little precarious.
"What the hell, kidnapping can also crash a car?" D'Addarion felt incredible, he was now sneakily hiding behind the flowers with Rob, watching the development of things outside, and the latter was still holding the girl who came out of nowhere in his arms, and the president of the Magicians Association could already see the abnormality in the girl at such a close distance, she obviously did not voluntarily partner with someone, but was involuntarily killed after being petrified.
His Excellency the future Ultra Magister shook his head, "They are not here to kidnap, but to assassinate Motalis. ”
"They?" said D'Ardarion, grasping the point of the boy's words, "Is there more than one killer?"
"Hmm. Rob ignored the girl's protesting eyes and roughly ripped off her sleeve, revealing a small piece of white and smooth arm underneath.
D'Artagion praised it manually, "You've been getting bolder and bolder lately, and you're giving out benefits at every turn." ”
Speechless, the future Ultra Magister flipped the girl's arm over, and there was a burning cross about half an inch above her elbow.
"It's actually someone from the Inquisition, what kind of play is this?" The president of the Wizards' Guild was completely confused about the situation at this moment, "Isn't the Inquisition the personal armed forces of the previous popes, why did they come to deal with his own loyal dogs? Could it be that Vanal V has been dissatisfied with Moteris lately?" Well, over the years, Mortelis has run the church very well in the south, and has overfulfilled the tasks assigned to him by the temple, even if he really commits something, Vannal V should not want to get rid of him, the only thing that may make the pope murderous is that he has done too well in the south, and it is not so much that the influence of the temple in the south has increased greatly over the years, but that Mortelis's own influence has increased greatly, and now all the forces in the south have a good personal relationship with this old thing, and what he says here is even better than the pope himself, it is because of this reason that Vannar V is determined to kill him?”
"They certainly want others to think the same way, especially Motellis himself. Rob said lightly.
"Counter-plots?" said D'Ardarion in surprise, "Interesting, is there anyone other than us who wants to deal with Mortellis?" this old thing has always had many enemies, but anyone who knows about the existence of the Inquisition and can think of taking advantage of this must know enough about the temple and the relationship between Mortellis and the Pope. ”
Rob didn't rush to answer this question, but pointed to the girl next to him and said, " When I came out just now, I noticed that her standing posture was a little unnatural, and I suspected that she might have a weapon on her, so I tried it, and as a result, she directly pulled out the dagger on her body to deal with me, in order to avoid attracting the attention of others, I subdued her in the shortest possible time, so that I couldn't observe her combat habits, but judging from her previous moves, she herself should not be very good at using this short-handled weapon, and the action of the shot was a little stiff, but the moves were very concise, and there were no fancy movements, I suspect that she has been formally trained。 ”
The killer girl couldn't speak, but her wide-eyed eyes showed her inner surprise, someone's analysis turned out to be all right, which shocked her heart, what is the origin of these two guys, just now she fought with one of them, and she didn't even see when the other party made a move, and this guy actually saw so many things in just a few seconds, this insight is inevitably a little too terrifying.
But it didn't look like they had come to an honest dinner, so maybe there was still a chance for them to fall into their hands?
And in just a short period of time, the black-clothed assassin on the stone steps was already in danger, with the successive addition of those guards on the Earl's Palace, his pressure increased suddenly, although the strength of those people compared with him There is a lot of gap, but it can further compress his activity space, and the loss of the speed advantage suddenly made him extremely embarrassed, and he is no longer the opponent of the paladin on the opposite side, and he was also hit by two swords in the thigh and waist, and the blood was spilled on the ground, and he was about to be unable to support it.
Just when everyone thought that the overall situation was certain and they could breathe a sigh of relief, there was another amazing change on the field.
