Chapter 259: The Hunter and the Prey

"Oh, a one-man fight?"

The voice of banter sounded not far from the two of them, and the sudden black shadow blocking in front made Ella's heart tremble.

It's the assassins who can't be killed!

The Crow Assassin was a little more interested when he saw Ella stop and put on a fighting posture. The Crow's Assassins always enjoyed the game of cat and mouse, often teasing their target when it came to ensuring that the task was completed, enjoying the feeling of the target having a nervous breakdown under their oppression.

So when his companion and Captain Melia were attacked, he didn't help him in the first place, but chose to hide in his surroundings and follow the two all the way here. Admittedly, Lord Sindora had asked Melia to kill the target herself, but when the captain himself was held back for some reason, they would also put the task first.

Theopharan and Henry's family have a feud, and it is an interesting prey to cover Princess Sophia's escape.

On the surface, his strength is not even as good as that of Wang **'s captain-level figures, but he has made a move that those soldiers can't reach and slipped away from under the nose of Captain Melia, or twice! He heard about what happened on the giant ship of the Musa Consortium, and even the goal of being a few levels higher than this little girl in strength has never been achieved.

Three silver needles appeared between his fingers.

"So, let's fight. ”

Ella's pupils shrank, and the person who was talking in front of her just now suddenly disappeared.

It's so fast! Not at all!

She had thought that she would be able to fight against these assassins without Melia, but now it seemed that she was too naïve. Phoenix's slaughter of chopping melons and vegetables blinded her eyes, and only at this moment did she intuitively feel the power of the Black Crow Assassin with her own body!

Her forearm ached, and when she looked at it, three silver needles had pierced her skin.

"Don't worry, these silver needles didn't extract poison, otherwise you would be dead by now. ”

The Raven Assassin's words came from all directions.

Normally, one-hit kills are a lifelong skill for Assassins, but when dealing with opponents who are a few levels less powerful, the one-hit kill makes the hunt rather short-lived, so after a few missions, he and some of his companions who are passionate about hunting come up with a game:

"But although there is no poison, the pain is real, I wonder how long you can last? By the way, the current record holder is an envoy of the Kingdom of Gran, and the man was pierced into a hedgehog all over his body before dying of excessive blood loss. ”

As he spoke, three more silver needles pierced Ella's shoulder.

These people are not only assassins, but also a bunch of complete perverts!

Ella cursed, but with her eyesight, she couldn't even catch the other party's figure, let alone make evasive movements, and even when the pain came, she realized that she had been stabbed again, and the teachers of the Wind Furnace Academy had never taught her how to deal with an enemy of this level!

The glitter crystal was used against Melia, and it was the last smoke grenade that was thrown. She's at the end of her rope.

Are you going to give up here?

"Oh, yes, I thought you were going to be stunned until the moment you got a hedgehog. The voice of the Crow Assassin came again.

But it's a pity.

His gaze shifted to Ella's right foot, which shot out three silver needles, and the latter staggered and fell to his knees.

"Ella!"

Sophia rushed to Tiella to examine the wound.

Three silver needles struck her acupuncture points, and the pain caused a brief paralysis, and Ella felt her right leg briefly out of her control.

Dead!

Her mind went blank, and everything was back to the way she had been before she burst out of the room. However, when her brain was in a state of confusion, she faintly saw the shadow of the Crow Assassin moving back and forth. She rubbed her eyes vigorously, and everything in front of her became clearer, and she even saw the other person's raised hand, and the silver needle between her fingers.

This time, the other party aimed at Sophia, and she responded without thinking.

"Bang"

The sound stunned both the Crow Assassin and Sophia, and after picking the silver needle with her sword, Ella began to gasp for air. The coherent movements that had just been drawn from her sword were completely instinctive, and this movement consumed most of her physical strength in an instant. Her heart was beating at a rapid rate, her blood was boiling, and she felt like her whole body was on fire.

By chance, or by surprise?

The Crow Assassin preferred to believe the latter, he didn't want to believe that a little girl wandering around the royal knight could see through his body, and in order to confirm his thoughts, five silver needles leaped through his fingers again, this time, three aimed at Ella, and the other two aimed at Sophia.

Something he didn't expect happened again.

Almost at the same time as he made his move, Ella pounced hard and dragged Sophia on the ground three times before stopping. Although the method of dodging was extremely embarrassing, he managed to dodge the attack of the five silver needles.

What's going on with this little girl?

After dodging the attack, Ella was not happy, this instinctive action was too great for her physical strength, and if she did it again or twice, she probably didn't even have the strength to get up.

"Ella, you...... What's wrong?"

Sophia's tone was a little worried.

Ella followed Sophia's gaze and looked at a silver-gray mark on the back of her hand.

Magic Pattern?

What the hell is going on?

Even Ella herself was stunned.

Although the engraving theory teacher did say that some knights do have examples of unleashing their potential when faced with desperate situations, and because of this, individual knights often put themselves between life and death in order to activate the deeper power of their engraving, but the necessary condition for this example is that she must have the engraving!

And Ella knows she's a true unmarked person!

Her heart fluttered.

As she was stunned, the Crow Assassin quietly shuttled in front of them, this time his weapon not a silver needle, but a curiously shaped short knife. The assassin's dark eyes were full of murderous intent.

Plans have changed, and at times like these, he has to put the task first.

So......

Go to hell!

"Boom"

Before Ella raised her sword, the orange shadow leaped over her head first, and the Crow Assassin had reacted in time, but the short knife he blocked only rubbed a few sparks on the orange scales, and then his entire body broke several stone pillars like a kite with a broken string before stopping.

"It's finally just in time!" said Jennifer, patting her chest with trepidation.

After whipping the Crow Assassin away, Jörmungård lowered his head and spat out a letter into Ella's face.

Feeling the slippery feeling on her cheeks, Ella excitedly grabbed Jörmungandr's head, she had never liked the baby snake so much as she did now.

Jennifer, who was riding on Jörmungård's head, saw the silver mark on the back of Ella's hand, and she clenched her left hand into a fist and cheered.

"It's work, my potion is finally working!"
