"You guys! Lay down your arms! You're surrounded by me. ”

This is a place called the Bright Wood Forest near Nighttown, and there is a small group of men and women encamped in this forest, all wearing black tights.

These people don't seem to be good people, they speak rudely, they have exaggerated smiles, there are people wiping their weapons while eating around the campfire, and most importantly, there is a red mask everywhere they can reach them, in the current Storm Kingdom, red masks are very sensitive things, only one organization will wear masks of this color, they are the Brotherhood of Defia.

It was such a group of people, who were eating, and then suddenly they were startled by such a statement, and they hurried to look towards the source of the sound, and saw a man with a warm smile, like a big boy next door, standing there, and no one noticed when he appeared.

"Alert!" shouted a reckless man and picked up his weapon, looking around in alarm, as did the others, but they looked at it for a long time, and the "besiegers" didn't seem to show up at all.

"No need to look for it, it's just me. The man with a warm smile spoke again.

"You're the only one?" the reckless man who looked like the leader frowned at the man, his words full of disbelief.

"That's right, I'm the only one, you've been surrounded by me alone, now, put down your weapons, I can still think about going around you to not die. ”

"......" a few robbers looked at each other, and then ......

"Hahahaha......" They seemed to have heard some huge funny joke, and they all burst into laughter.

"You said you surrounded all of us alone?" The reckless man almost laughed: "I see, you want to laugh us to death, and then you can win without a fight, this is really a good idea, hahahaha......"

His words drew laughter from the others.

"Have you laughed enough?" After they had laughed for a while, the man spoke again: "If we've laughed enough, let's get down to business." Then he suddenly turned into a black shadow and disappeared in front of everyone.

"......" at this moment everyone lost their smiles as if they had been choked by the neck, and before they could look around, the reckless man, he fell down with a "plop", blood gushed from the back of his neck, he twitched twice, and then completely fell silent.

Behind him, the strange man who had just suddenly disappeared was now wiping his weapon, which was a bright red gemstone dagger, red dripping with red blood.

“......”

The rest of the robbers were suppressed, and they all looked at the man vigilantly, and no one dared to talk nonsense anymore.

"Very good, now we can have a good conversation......

..................

The next day, on the road leading to the western wilderness in Nighttown, a man in black walked unhurriedly, he was Zhang Li, he was dragging a string of things that looked like a string of balls connected by ropes.

But when you look closer, it's hard to see, what kind of ball is it, it's clearly a string of human heads!

At this moment, he was spotted by a soldier at a sentry, and he immediately called out to his companions, and the ragged sentries rushed towards the man in black, and then surrounded him in the middle with their weapons.

"Calm down, calm down, I have no ill will. Zhang Li raised his hands and signaled these soldiers not to be impulsive, but these soldiers would believe that he had ghosts, and that TM was a string of human heads!

"Who are you!?Who are they!?" A man who looked like a captain stared at Zhang Li fiercely, the reason why he looked like a captain was because he was the only one who had a sword, and the others could only hold a rudimentary spear, the kind that randomly found a wooden stick to tie a dagger to it.

"I used to be a robber in Defia, but I ...... now"

"Kill him, this damn Defiya bandit!" Before Zhang Li could finish speaking, the captain was directly angry, and without saying a word, he slashed at Zhang Li.

"Wait!" Zhang Li shouted, but no one paid attention to him, he had to draw his dagger to hold the man's sword, but at this time the others also began to stab Zhang Li.

"Stop!" His body, which had not been trained much, could only be said to be average in terms of strength, and without the optimization of the beast's genes, his reflexes were not as good as before, and at the critical moment, he could only use the shadow ability, fake as a shadow step and suddenly disappear and then appear behind the captain, holding the dagger around his neck.

"Calm down, if I were a bad guy you'd be dead. ”

The captain of the "......" froze, and so did the others, but fortunately, Zhang Li really had no malicious intent, he withdrew the dagger, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Then the sentries began to look at Zhang Li, and they didn't speak, just looked at him.

"Listen to me, I used to be a member of Defiya, but I was forced to join them, and now, I have killed all the members of Defia's team that entered here with me, and I hope to have their heads as a vote. ”

The captain looked at Zhang Li vigilantly, and then looked at the heads, he carefully identified them, and found that he didn't seem to have seen these people, but there were so many people in the twilight forest, and he hadn't seen every single one.

"It's their mask, and mine. At this time, Zhang Li handed out a stack of red linen masks, and the captain carefully took them.

"It doesn't look like a fake, but how do I know it's not your conspiracy? You're so strong that if I let you get close to those chiefs, it might be a big mistake. ”

"If I really want to assassinate someone, I don't need to expose myself at all, I just have to sneak in, kill someone and leave, and no one can catch me. ”

The captain of the "......" was still unmoved.

Zhang Li showed a pleading expression and said: "Believe me, not everyone has the right to choose, some people he is just forced, in order to survive, he has to make some decisions that he does not want to do." ”

“...... I'll escort you to the barracks, and if you will, you can explain it to the commanders there, and maybe they'll believe you. ”

..................

"You said you want to abandon evil and follow good?" In a small dark room in Night Town, Zhang Li was surrounded by a group of people who observed Zhang Li like some magical animal.

He was interrogated by a middle-aged strong man with a beard.

"That's right. Zhang Li nodded calmly.

“...... But according to our people, you'll use Shadowwalk. ”

"yes, so what's the matter?" Zhang Li looked at him with a cute expression.

“...... A high-level assassin who wields the power of shadow, who trained you? Van Cleef?"

"No one trained me, I once saw a high-level assassin use the Shadowwalk, and then I taught myself......"

"Don't talk nonsense!" the bearded man roared, "You don't lie and don't tell a decent one!!Teach yourself Shadow Walk?If this skill could be taught by yourself casually, the world would have been ruled by the Assassins long ago. He pressed his face closer to Zhang Li, very close, as if trying to see something.

"Hmm...... Maybe I'm a genius?"
