Chapter 18: The Battle of the Assassins
After going out of the Inspector's Mansion, she found a hotel that looked good to live in, and the payment was now promoted to Sylvia, who was now a rich woman, and the smile on her face barely disappeared, and even the room was generously opened with two first-class rooms.
The upper room is very spacious, with windows facing the street and two tall trees blocking the summer sun from the windows.
"Dark, let's go out on the streets. Putting her things away, Sylvia ran over and said.
Dark agrees with Sylvia's proposal, but he still has some things to do.
"I'm going to the Assassins' Guild, and I can't accompany you until I've got my status as an Assassin. Gloom said.
Shopping may be a woman's favorite thing to do, they can buy nothing, but they must see everything. Sylvia was eager to wander the streets, and agreed to Dark's terms:
"Well, I'll accompany you to the Assassins' Guild first. ”
The annoying old man Fan Lai before recommended that he go to the Assassin's Guild Gray Goose City Branch to worship the branch president Zorro as a teacher, and now he is going there to get the identity of an assassin, although a Soul Snatcher assassin is not taken into his eyes, but it is very necessary to have an assassin identity, with the strength of the dark, it is enough to push himself to the level of a high-level assassin, so that it can not only deter the young people during the journey, but also have privileges, such as taking on some tasks that can be completed quickly but have specific requirements, etc...... Money is a good thing, if you want to travel around the mainland, you can't do it without money, and the assassination mission is a good way to get money.
As soon as they said go, the two of them prepared to go to the Assassins' Guild.
"Boss, how will you go until the Assassin's Guild?" The two of them came to Grey Goose City for the first time, so they didn't know where it was, and they directly asked the innkeeper for help.
"Assassins' Guild, in the center of the city, do you see that dagger sign? "The owner is a helpful person, although I don't know if he is enthusiastic because of the money, but he provides the exact location and directions, then he is a good person.
"Okay, I see, thanks. ”
After thanking the boss, Gmy and Sylvia followed the route given by the innkeeper to the Assassins' Guild, which was easy to find, and if you looked up, you could see a huge building with two crossed dagger icons.
Elves are rare in Grey Goose City, if there is no war, many elves will never leave the forest for the rest of their lives, and the elves who can appear outside in peacetime, each of them has a mission, their strength is very strong, each of them is a free ranger, and usually male - there are ill-intentioned Terran slave traders who often go to catch elven girls to sell to nobles as playthings, and on the black market, an elven girl can be sold for a price of 10,000 gold coins.
Sylvia was once again greeted in the street with a salute, which made her blush again. I'm thinking about whether to buy her a cloak to block it, otherwise it wouldn't be a way to come to a city so many times every time, in case someone plots against her and hurts her only companion at the moment. Gloom has found at least four ill-intentioned people.
A group of children jumped and jumped around Sylvia, and the kind Sylvia specially bought some candy cubes to distribute to these innocent and lively children, standing on the sidelines, staring at the few Terrans who he found to be threatening, the young man's sharp gaze and a hand that did not let go of the handle of the "Rose" thorn made several Terrans throw rats, they were not sure that it would be so easy to capture the little elf in front of this young man who exuded a powerful aura.
"Those kids are cute, aren't they? Saying goodbye to the children, Sylvia happily said that she liked the feeling of being welcome the most.
"Well, this may be a unique scenery in the town. Glow nodded, perfunctorily saying that he didn't want to tell Sylvia how dangerous she was just now.
The Assassins' Guild was not far away, and from the two of them, the whole building could be seen, it was as large as a Colosseum!
"Oh, this building is bigger than the Imperial Court, and they are really humans. Sylvia looked at the huge building and sighed. As one of the few elves who have entered the interior of the Elven Imperial Court, Sylvia has a deep understanding of the size of the Elven Imperial Court, but the building in front of her is as big as the Imperial Court, and it is only a branch.
"Yes, there are so many Terrans that they can build such a big building, and I'm afraid it's the size of a horn whale, it's really a giant beast. He said as he stepped up the steps. The demon king is on top, and there are hundreds of steps in this place alone.
"Horn whales, what's that?" asked Sylvia, catching up with Dark.
"A sea creature, an overlord-level magical beast, as big as this building, as long as it is in the sea, it is invincible, and even a giant dragon can be counted in the recipe. Gloom said. These were all things he had seen in the book, and the first time he heard about the creature in the book, he could even stuff an egg in his mouth.
"Even dragons eat?!it's terrible!" Sylvia's small mouth opened in an "O" shape, exactly like the original Gloomy.
In Sylvia's understanding, the dragon with extremely high physical strength, strong magic resistance, and the ability to independently release forbidden spells is already the most powerful creature, but I didn't expect that there are still creatures that feed on them!
"There's so much you don't know. With that, he walked into the hall.
......
"Old friend, you must believe me, that kid is definitely the best candidate for your apprentice, his strength is very strong, he is simply born for assassins, but there is no discipline, it is you who need to train him systematically, maybe you can teach a title assassin!" In a corner of the hall, Fan Lai was talking to an old man shrouded in black robes, his face had a faint knife mark, and there were spell fluctuations on it to heal magic.
"But he actually injured you!" said the black-robed old man angrily.
"It was just a small wound, and it didn't even bleed much. I just want to say that I'm a brass swordsman, and he can even hurt me, which shows that he has the strength to surpass the third professional stage, and he is definitely a good seedling, you must find him!" Van Lehe said, waving his hand. "Zorro, as long as you can find him, your wish to find a disciple who inherits your mantle can be solved. Perfect solution! Maybe you can raise another Assassin with the title! What an honor that is?"
Zorro snorted, his shoulders shaking. An old friend was injured, but he still had to speak for the person who hurt him, he really couldn't understand it. Maybe Van Rai can not care about his injuries and not pursue that kid, but he Zorro will definitely not let go of the kid who hurt his old buddy, even if he may become a title assassin!
Zorro was already furious, and his eyebrows were about to turn fiery red.
"I would never be apprenticed by such a man who does not know how to respect the elderly!" said Zorro.
"Listen to me, Zorro. You're going to love him. Van Lee laughed. His old friend was a little too short-tempered, but if he could be gentle, then he wouldn't have stayed in Grey Goose City for so long, and the two wouldn't have become friends. Therefore, the trajectory of fate is really unpredictable, and the friendship between the two for so many years is a great and not easy fate.
"Hmph. Zorro was noncommittal.
Fan Lai smiled slightly, but his eyes inadvertently noticed a trace of unusual images, he looked at it, and almost didn't call out in surprise:
"Look, there he is!" Van Lehe said, pointing to a place.
Zorro turned his head to look in the direction of Van Le's fingertips, and a teenager and a young girl appeared in his sight.
Akira was consulting with a counselor.
"Excuse me, what should I do if I want to get status as an assassin?"
The counselor was a very mild-mannered girl, probably only eighteen or nineteen years old. It was found that all the counselors here in the Terrans seemed to be very beautiful girls.
"If you want to get the status of an assassin, you need to go to the assessment office on the third floor to take a basic assassin exam, and if you pass, you can join. The counselor girl said.
"Oh, thanks. Gloomy nodded, and took Sylvia and prepared to go upstairs.
"Are the little ones so powerful now? That little brother seems to be two or three years younger than me, and he actually has the confidence to participate in the Assassin entrance examination. The counselor thought to herself. She'd been working here for a year, and she was arguably the youngest examiner she'd ever met.
The basic entry assessment of the assassin needs to assess stealth and hand-to-hand combat, as long as it's not too vegetable, it can generally be passed, and in the heart of the counselor girl, he will be a trainee assassin from now on.
He stepped up the spiral staircase with one foot, ready to go upstairs.
Woo –
The screech of the dagger sounded suddenly, like an ultimatum urging for life.
"That kid over there, stop me!" the dagger screeched and there was a loud roar.
Everyone in the hall looked at the boy who hadn't had time to stand on the stairs, and someone heard the roar with a look of pity on their faces.
He turned his head slowly, and sparks erupted in the air in front of him.
Ding, ding, dang!
The long spike of the "Rose" and the dagger collided alternately a dozen times. Before the spark, which was the high heat generated by the violent friction of the metal, ignited the air.
Zorro's black-robed figure appeared in front of everyone. Between him and the dark, a long trail turned the glittering white ground black.
The people nearby retreated far away to prevent themselves from being injured by mistake, and a wide field was cleared.
"Good boy, you can fight me like this. Zorro held the dagger behind his back, the steel dagger was already full of gaps. Although there was no expression on his face, Zorro's heart was already flooded. The teenager in front of him parried his attacks with great skill, and could even free up his hands to fight back against him - he was not a rookie at all. This boy is an old assassin with a lot of combat experience!
No wonder, no wonder Van Lewe would recommend him so much, he is indeed targeted, and he deserves all the energy of Zorro to teach.
A slight thought flashed in Zorro's heart, but now is the time of battle, whether he wants to teach him in the future or not, now he has to pay the price of hurting Van Lae!
Sharp, tough, penetrating. These three runes greatly strengthened the armor-piercing ability and own strength of the "Rose" thorn, and even the "Rose" thorn, which can pierce a pair of plate armor, will certainly not flinch in the face of an ordinary steel dagger, and after a few confrontations, Zorro's steel dagger will become scrap metal.
"Magic weapons?" Zorro frowned, it seems that this little guy is not a fuel-efficient lamp, even expensive magic weapons, and it seems to be a masterpiece.
"Could it be that he is the illegitimate son of some great nobleman?" Zorro thought to himself.
Thinking about it, this didn't mean that Zorro would stop, he threw away the tattered dagger and drew his magic weapon instead.
Zorro's magic weapon is a curved emerald green dagger called "snake fang", which has a strong toxin on it, once it enters the human body, it will attack in a few breaths, and there is no antidote at all, it is very vicious.
The poison of the assassins, why the antidote?
The poison of the assassin does not need an antidote!
When he saw the emerald green blade, he could see that it was poisonous, but he wouldn't flinch!
"Hmph. He snorted coldly and rushed forward without hesitation. A Soul Reaver Assassin, as powerful as he is, is only as powerful as he is.
It is a high-level demon in the hands of the dark as high as two digits, which one of them is not more powerful than Zorro? With Zoro's strength, the darkness can guarantee that the high-level demons he has killed, any one of them can be pulled out to completely abuse Zorro.
The "Rose" thorn flashed with a dark red rune light, this one with an unknown meteorite as the main body, a magic ambassador carved runes, and the dwarf's forged killing weapon burst out with its amazing power - directly knocked the "snake fang" dagger, and the sharp blade slashed under Zorro's ribs, causing a crazy blood-spurting wound.
"Hmm-" Zorro exclaimed in pain, reaching for his injured waist, but the blood kept flowing.
"Zorro Branch President is injured!" the people around him were in an uproar. The mighty President Zorro would be defeated by an unknown hairy boy? Oh my God, this is unimaginable! How old is that boy? He doesn't look like he's sixteen years old!
"Zorro!" Van Leh ran from a distance, crouching beside Zorro, carefully examining Zorro's wounds. "Are you alright, old man?"
Zorro coughed twice and said weakly, "It's okay, I can't die." ”
Standing aside, he looked at the old man he thought was annoying, then at Zorro, and immediately understood that the old assassin in black robe in front of him should be the "teacher" that Van Leh had recommended to him.
For this scene, he snorted twice disdainfully and said:
"Who's who's the teacher?"
