Chapter 608: Masked Assassin, Shadow Realm
Night, Marquis Bach's Palace. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Although the identity was enough, as guards, neither Nezel nor Little Venal had any intention of participating in the banquet, and they rested in a side hall next to the banquet hall.
It was said to be resting, but at first it was still the armor that was still on the body, and the weapon was clenched.
As an entourage wood elf, although Naizer also belongs to the army, most of them used to follow Peter Igor, while little Venal climbed from the bottom of the army, honing and improving step by step, so the two are not familiar with each other, and the topic cannot be opened.
As for the other twelve escort warriors, seeing that the two leaders did not speak, they naturally did not dare to make a loud noise.
The silence in the room lasted until the grand butler Kuri brought a sumptuous dinner, and the wine naturally could not be moved during the mission, but the fragrant aroma of barbecued meat and the unusually delicious mushroom soup still made the hungry guards salivate freely.
Nezel was not a very demanding elf, and finally nodded lightly after facing the 'longing eyes' of his subordinates.
After receiving the leader's affirmation, naturally one of the guards removed the helmet, revealing a young face, he lightly sprinkled some white powder on the meal, and after observing it for a while, he smiled brightly at the others.
Although the armor had not been removed, the helmets had been removed, the weapons were at hand, all the guards had begun to eat, and the atmosphere in the room gradually became lively, not to mention the guards, they were already familiar, and there was no obstacle to communication, even Nezel and little Venal began to talk.
Nazel asked about the battle against ogres outside the southern city, and he was more concerned about this, while little Venal wanted to ask more about Muen's situation, although the other party promised in the name of the Igor family, he was still a little uneasy.
For Nazel, if Mu En hadn't asked him to deliver the letter, he really wouldn't have given any praise, but after this incident, he didn't know how to evaluate it, and in the end he could only say that he was not familiar.
After all, Muen was an illegitimate child, and no one knew about his existence until Lady Merry summoned him back, and the unfamiliar said the past.
Because they were not in a hurry, everyone ate slowly at this dinner, and during the conversation while eating, the atmosphere became warmer, and some of the guards had already begun to ask little Venal about the ogre's combat power level and weaknesses.
During this period of time, no one dares to say when they will go to the battlefield, so the more they know about this thing, the more they will be guaranteed.
The meal was eaten directly into the middle of the moon, and when the cold moonlight shone into the room through the skylight, Nezaire's expression changed suddenly, and as soon as he raised his hand, the conversation almost stopped abruptly, and the room fell silent all of a sudden.
It is this quietness, the faces of all the warriors are changing, they are all strong people selected from the Scarlet Rose Legion and the Four Realms Legion, they are all warriors above the first order, and their ear power is not weak, this quiet, naturally you can feel the difference.
In the distance, there seemed to be screams and chases!
After Netzer and Little Venal glanced at each other, they directly shouted loudly: "Alert, everyone is ready to fight!"
In the chaotic collision, all the warriors seemed to be sorting out their weapons and equipment as fast as they could, and at this moment, the door was suddenly slammed open, and a servant covered in blood stumbled in.
"Help! Help!!"
Roar!
Behind him, a streamlined cheetah-like monster pounced, the monster was pitch black, and its eyes were narrow and cold, like a shadow.
Nesaire's reaction was the fastest, as an elven archer, he took the path of perception and agility, almost instinctively, he instantly catapulted into the air, the gorgeous elven longbow was spread in mid-air, and in the dense 'buzzing' sound, a white arrow several meters long shot out.
Like lightning in the sky, the white arrow arrived in front of the monster in the blink of an eye, but the monster's extremely sensitive mid-air twisted, and it was a few points wrong, as if it wanted to avoid the arrow, but just as it was about to stagger by, the arrow suddenly expanded, bursting out countless small arrows.
- Second-order marksman skills, empty arrows, explosion!
The swordsman can slash the air to form an air blade, so the archer can naturally use the bowstring to bounce the air to form a void arrow, which is an empty arrow.
And the empty arrow also has a lot of deduction skills, such as condensing like substance, supplemented by high-speed rotation, so that it has a very strong penetrating power, and for example, the one that Nezel is using now controls the explosion of the empty arrow, so as to cover the attack.
This blow was definitely beyond the monster's expectations, it almost ate the attack of the scattered arrows, and flew out with a wail, but because the empty arrows were too scattered, it did not take much damage, and when it landed again and stabilized itself, it roared and rushed up again.
But by this time, Nesel had already stopped in front of the servant, and once again opened his bow and missed.
This time, the dense humming sound was accompanied by a rapid screech of the air being stirred, and the white arrows that vibrated from the bowstring swirled like spinning tops, tearing through the air and drowning the monster in a wave of air.
- Second-order marksman skills, empty arrows, armor penetration!
As the name suggests, this arrow has a strong penetrating power, able to penetrate the armor, although the monster's defense is not weak, but it was shot in pairs without accident, from the head to the tail revealed a flesh through wound, dark purple blood splattered all over the ground.
But Nazel was not happy in the slightest, he only felt that his hairs were bursting, and the sense of crisis from the deepest part of his body was about to overwhelm him.
And that crisis comes from...... Behind him!
I saw that the servant, who had just stumbled and stumbled, had already stood up nimbly, with a smug and bloodthirsty smile on his dark face, and his hands reached out, and two daggers stabbed out from the bottom to the top with a piercing cold light.
Even in high-speed movement, the two daggers are still as if light and shadow are intertwined, virtual and real, and uncertain.
The distance between him and Nezel was so close that it barely gave the other party room to react, so close that he could stab the other with a dagger as long as he reached out.
The turn of events was so abrupt that before all the guards could utter their exclamations, a sword, with some half-curved long swords, appeared in front of the servant at an even more abrupt angle, and cut off his head without hesitation.
The speed of the long sword was not fast, and it did not suppress the sound of breaking through the air, and the power was strong enough to cut the boulder in half.
The smile on the servant's face froze, he understood that if he insisted on stabbing the dagger in his hand, he would be able to sum up the life of the archer, but his own head would also move, and as long as he didn't want to die, he knew how to choose!
The figure twisted strangely again, his hands shook rapidly, the two daggers drew a strange arc, and they met the long sword, and the dagger in high-speed movement seemed to be really expanding and contracting, bringing up a heavy phantom.
And his body is ready, as long as he borrows a little force on the long sword, he will catapult at the fastest speed, as long as his life is still there, everything can come again.
He thought it well, but when the dagger touched the blade, he only felt an irresistible sharp coming from the blade, and his hands were directly shattered, and the long sword fell without any hesitation, making a cut in his chest.
Blood splattered, and he looked at it a little blankly, as if he didn't understand or believe it, but the sword light flashed again, and his head had already flew.
When Nesaire turned, he saw that the servant's head had flown up, purple blood splashing like a fountain in the sky, and as it fell, his long emerald hair changed color, but his gaze never shifted in the slightest.
That's little Venal, and it was little Venal who saved him just now!
"Thank you!" Nesaire said earnestly and with some doubts, "But, how did you see through him?"
If it weren't for the fact that he had already seen through it, the strength of the little Venal second-order slashing swordsman would definitely not have time to rescue, so he had this question.
"Before he broke down the door, I could hear the shouts and howls far away, and after he broke the door, the panicked footsteps belonging to ordinary people came, so he must have cheated!"
The road is actually extremely simple, and the flaws are obvious, but when the moment comes, he can see through it, and the other party's observation power is definitely not ordinary.
Little Venal didn't think too much about it, and after answering, he fixed his eyes on the dead servant, and the light in his eyes suddenly shrank, and said, "Hey, what is this?"
Nesel was also attracted by the words, and looked down, as if because of his death, the original miserable servant suit on his body had faded like a phantom, revealing a set of pitch-black tight-fitting leather armor, the style was simple and simple, but there was like a shadow, as if it was born to be ignored.
The skull on the side is covered with a layer of metallic mask, which seems to be an abstract painting style, weird and hideous.
The twelve guards had already finished their clothes and gathered around again, while the warrior who had tested the poison before squatted down and examined it carefully, then looked up at Neselle, although his face obscured his expression, the tension in his words was almost ready to burst: "Chief, we are in trouble, this is actually a masked assassin?"
"Is it really a masked assassin?" Little Venal's face also changed: "It is said that the masked assassins are all half-bloods with shadow blood, and they are natural assassins who can escape into the shadow realm.
It is said that Kamen Assassins are proficient in illusion and can change everything, ignoring men and women, and it is impossible to prevent them.
It is said that although the Kamen Assassins belong to the Assassin Guild, they only belong to the Assassin Guild, and the Shadow Kamen faction will only obey the orders of His Majesty the Shadow Kamen Throne.
Could it be that even that one is interested in the city of Ilmassu?"
Each of Little Venal's was said to freeze in the air for three minutes, and everyone couldn't help but hold their breath.
"It is imperative that we all find Young Master Muen now, believe me, the Igor family has stood on this land for three thousand years, and it will definitely not fall now.
Don't talk nonsense, everyone, assault formation, let's go!"
Whatever the truth, it was not the time to consider, and Naizer did not forget his duty, he shouted angrily and led the soldiers directly out of the gate.
Outside the gate, the squad maintained a rapid assault in formation, but after only a few seconds, everyone sensed that something was wrong.
The scenery outside the door is still the same, the ground is still the ground, the flowers are still flowers, the corridor is still the corridor, but there are no other colors, only black and white intertwined.
They were actually pulled in...... Shadow Realm!
