Chapter Ninety-Six: Assassination
I have to say that the Qingteng Club shined in the Dawn Light Magic Team Competition, which played an excellent role in publicity. Although they failed to win the championship, they were impressed by the wonderful performances of Bazok and others. It made many depressed young magicians see a new path, and this was the first time they felt that in addition to the formal magic academy, there was a place like the Ivy League for them to show their talents.
And this is another major gain of Grien in addition to his betting career, and the Ivy Club has now become the most popular magic research group in Ye Farlan. From the moment Bazok unleashed the Storm Navigation Arrow, every young mage knew of the existence of the Ivy Society.
Not long after the award ceremony of the Dawn Light Magic Team Competition, Grien was surrounded by a number of young magicians. Some asked about the current situation of the Ivy League, some wanted to know if there was any corresponding magic teaching, and some directly said that they wanted to join the Ivy Club.
Greon did his best to answer all their questions, and many magicians even wrote down application forms on the spot and handed them to Grien.
Seeing the enthusiasm of the magicians, Greon sensed that things were going more smoothly than he had imagined. If this momentum is followed, it won't take a few years for the Qingteng Society to become the first-line magic club of Ye Falan, and then he can also have a certain status in this mage city, after all, he is the boss of the Qingteng Society.
With dozens of application forms in hand, the elusive Greon could no longer be described as happy in one word. Although these individual applications are more or less watery, these young magicians who want to join are not as tough as Claes and them. But this means that the Qingteng Society and even Ye Falan are turning a new page.
If you can recruit the elite of these people, then it will play a good leading role. The Qingteng Society will usher in a good time for great development.
"Boss, recruiting so many people at once, we can't seem to arrange so many people. Naxi remembered that the Qingteng Club was almost full, so where to arrange these people.
"Can I be so hard to get a little bit like arranging a few people to stay?" Greon smiled, "Anyway, the neighbors around are already tortured by you. With a little more money, nothing is impossible. ”
Hearing Greon say this, Naxi remembered that another family had moved out of the neighborhood two days ago. After calculating it like this, it seems that there are really few people around the Qingteng Society, and those who can't stand it have moved away a long time ago. There are only three or five families left who are still holding on.
"Boss. You're too wise. Hayek puffed out at the right time.
"Shut up, Hayek. Greon didn't want to hear some more meaty touting that he wanted to vomit, "Let's go back and see if the fat man is okay." Speaking of which, Greon was still quite worried about Bazok's situation. After all, today's fat man has become the most dazzling existence of the Qingteng Society. Greon didn't want to lose the sign for some reason.
Walk to the bend in the trail. The three chattering trio did not notice the impending killing. The waiting serpent hidden on both sides of the dense forest is preparing to pounce on the prey that has been watching.
At the moment when the three of them were at their most alert, the assassin who had been ambushing him leaped out almost instantaneously and stabbed at the target they were targeting. The seven or eight daggers that shone with cold light shone with a deadly killing intent in the faint shade of the trees. The Assassins had been waiting here for more than an hour for this moment.
"Be careful!" Hayek was the first to spot the masked men. He got in front of Green.
"Dimensional stride!" With a twist of his wand, Hayek pushed it, and a teleportation magic sent Grien out of the most dangerous situation, avoiding the assassination that pounced on him from all directions.
"Damn!" the leader of the assassins scolded fiercely after realizing that his target had missed, and then said, "You two keep an eye on this magician, and the others catch up with the target, so don't let him escape." ”
Immediately, four or five figures immediately pounced on the frightened Grien, and the rest confronted Hayek.
Faced with a life-threatening crisis, Naxi also reacted in the fastest time. The star error in his hand was wiped by his hands full of magic power, and the silver magic wand suddenly turned into a terrifying existence.
"Demon Flow Attachment?Shadow Moon Blade!"
Faced with the terrifying scythe, these assassins were undaunted. The two Assassins pulled out two eerie scimitars from under their cloaks, with two eerie hooks at one end of the tip. Before Naxi could unleash his martial arts, the two strange knives had already caught his Shadow Moon Blade, and then pressed down, and Naxi suddenly couldn't use the scythe combat technique that he was proud of.
The skill of borrowing strength is not at all something that Naxi can handle. The two assassins pulled back, and Naxi's whole body was ripped out. At the same time, the dagger clenched in his left hand had already slashed at the unbalanced mage, and the deep stab aimed at the throat of the assassin was about to kill Naxi with a single blow.
I don't know if it was an instinctive reaction or Naxi's own enlightenment, but in the face of the deep stab that stabbed him in the throat, he let go of Xing Tso with his left hand, and then returned his hand to block his throat.
The sharp dagger stabbed directly into Naxi's wrist and pierced through it, not reaching the handle of the dagger. Although the place where the dagger was inserted sent out a heart-wrenching pain, Naxi, who had saved his life for the time being, could not care so much. Far more physically than the average magician, he aimed at an assassin who showed a flawed crotch and kicked him hard.
Even the toughest warrior couldn't stand the pain of being kicked in the crotch, and with a scream, the hapless assassin let go of the dagger on Naxi's arm and passed out. The other one went to wield the deadly weapon in his hand, intending to kill Naxi in this trouble.
More did not choose to entangle with Naxi at this moment, and they crossed the battle mage's intention to directly besiege Grien, the target of this operation.
Looking at the successive assassins, Grien was a little puzzled, but his right hand was already gripping the short sword at his waist. However, he didn't act immediately, and Greon was waiting for an opportunity to save himself. I don't know if it was the effect of fear or overexcitement, Grien's right hand holding the dagger was trembling slightly.
"Friend, can't you say anything well, do you have to fight to the death?" said Green, who felt the need to know which bastard was going to kill him, "I know I can't escape your siege today, but I have a small request at this moment. That's how I want to know before I die, who is going to pay so much to kill me.
The Assassin leader did not grant Grien's ridiculous final request: "Don't talk nonsense, hunt down the target." Otherwise, when those people in the Legal Supervision Commission notice, none of us will want to leave safely. ”
During Yefaran's days, the Assassin leader knew very well that the mission had not yet been completed, and if the Legalists were allowed to come in, then the hunt would be in vain.
"Keeping the confidentiality of our employer is the standard of our killer industry, you still have to die this heart, obediently suffer to die!" The leader of the assassins immediately snapped his fingers, and the assassins around him immediately changed their new formation and pounced on Green, who was on full guard.
"I still wanted to settle it peacefully, but I didn't expect you to be so stubborn!" The short sword that had been pinned to Grien's waist was already unsheathed. A cold light flashed in front of him, and suddenly an unlucky assassin lost his right hand.
The Assassins under siege were shocked again, they hadn't noticed Green's extraordinary martial arts skills all these days. And the opponent took advantage of his own negligence and cut off the right hand of a colleague at once.
There was no time for them to discuss the in-gathering mistakes, and the Assassins besieging Grion had to do everything in their power to kill the people in front of them, or they would risk losing their lives.
Graham gripped the dagger and used his skilful dagger skills to dismantle the deadly attacks one by one. Having spent some time in Monaris, he could tell at a glance that they were using the most assassination techniques used by the Assassins of the City of Mercenaries.
In the face of these unknown Assassins, Greon praised them for their timing, but did not dare to compliment them on their skills. After a few rounds, the Assassin with the broken arm was knocked over by Grien, and the remaining two were no longer able to suppress them.
It seemed that the assassination attempt was doomed, and the Assassin leader suddenly whistled, and the Assassin, who was still fighting, suddenly withdrew from the battle.
"What are they going to do. Naxi, who noticed the growing pain in his arm, wondered why the Assassin who had confronted him had suddenly left. Soon he discovered the intentions of the former enemy: they wanted to escape!
As they quickly pulled away, the Assassins threw deadly darts at their companions, who had fainted on the ground. Although Greon and Naxi both noticed their opponents' movements, they could only block two of the poison darts, and the two unlucky ones died at the hands of their own people.
Appearing like ghosts, the failed assassin disappeared from view almost instantly, leaving only two corpses covered in poison darts.
"What a bad luck!" Greon, who felt like he had just walked from the edge of hell, touched a cold sweat, "None of you are hurt. ”
Assassins would normally coat their daggers with deadly poison to ensure that assassination was safe, and Greon was very worried that Naxi and Hayek had been attacked.
"Ah, I was stabbed by them just now. Fighting through the pain, Naxi pulled out the dagger that was stuck in his left forearm.
Hayek glanced at Nashi's blackened wound and was shocked: "You have been stabbed somewhere, this is already poisoned." ”
"Hayek, freeze his arm!" Greon shouted seeing that the toxin had not yet spread.
According to common sense, few people would survive the poison of the Monaris assassins, but Greon found that Naxi acted as if nothing had happened. So the first thought that flashed through his mind was to freeze Naxi's left arm completely, and then go back to Mendel to see if there was a cure for the poison. (To be continued......)
