Chapter 241: Assassination
Just as Zhou Tian thought, it was impossible for the Orc Empire to secretly help them at this time. www.biquge.info Without the help and permission of the Orc Empire, even the strength of the Goblin Empire is not weak, but it is true that it does not have the ability to forcibly mobilize its own imperial army within the territory of the Orc Empire.
It's just that just when Zhou Tian thought that it would be impossible for those goblins to do anything against him in the least short period of time, those goblins directly told Zhou Tian with their actions that they were definitely thinking too much.
That's right, at that time, because of the constraints of the Orc Empire, it was no longer possible for the Goblin Empire to send its own empire's army to deal with Zhou Tian. But in fact, even if there was no restraint from the Orc Empire, it was estimated that those goblins would never be able to send their own empire's army to deal with Zhou Tian again! After all, because of what they did before, they suffered a big loss in Zhou Tian's hands.
Zhou Tian's weapon advantage can also be seen by those goblins, and it is not difficult to see it according to the previous battle. Unless they use crowd tactics, and if the soldiers are not afraid to die, they will have a slight chance of victory. Otherwise, even if they continued to mobilize their empire's troops, the final outcome of the battle between the two sides would only be a repeat of the course of the previous battle.
It's just that Zhou Tian was not afraid that those goblins would send troops to deal with him again, but he didn't think that those goblins might have some other actions. As a result, when Zhou Tian was not prepared, when those goblins saw that the army was not a big threat to Zhou Tian, and directly paid for the killer to deal with him again, Zhou Tian suffered a loss at that time.
The Goblin Empire would react like that, and there was nothing surprising about it. After all, everyone can see the advantages of those weapons that Zhou Tian took out. The advantage of numbers has no meaning in front of it, and in the face of the threat of those guns, if there is no absolute strength advantage, sending an army to deal with Zhou Tian is really far less useful than dispatching killers. After all, as long as the killers don't reveal their identities, Zhou Tian can't use the weapons in his hands to deal with them. In this way, if you find an opportunity, those killers will assassinate Zhou Tian, and once they succeed, no matter how beneficial the weapon Zhou Tian is, it is estimated that it will be meaningless by then.
Of course, according to Zhou Tian's control over the information of his territory, although he didn't know what actions those goblins had at the time. He didn't guard against those goblins who would use this method to deal with him, but even if he didn't know the actions of those goblins, when those goblins had such arrangements for him, with the actions of those killers, Zhou Tian soon learned that a large number of special people had come to his territory.
The identity of the other party may not be clear to Zhou Tian at that time, but even if he doesn't know the identity of those killers, as long as he knows that those killers may be a threat to him. Then it is definitely impossible for Zhou Tian not to take any action, at least if those killers take action, Zhou Tian will definitely get the corresponding news as soon as possible.
It's just that, although I know that my territory has a lot of 'tourists' that don't seem to be simple. However, when he didn't know the identity and purpose of those people at that time, Zhou Tian would definitely not have special precautions against the other party. In this way, without Zhou Tian's corresponding precautions in advance, in the face of the assassination of those killers, Zhou Tian could not ignore it.
Unless the other party is not given any chance, otherwise depending on the ability of those killers, even if it is just a small chance, Zhou Tian can be regarded as having a high status and strength, once the other party's action succeeds, then Zhou Tian still has only one way to die.
It's just that it's possible that Sunday will not give those killers all the time?
Obviously, that is impossible, after all, there is only a thousand days to be a thief but there is no reason to prevent a thousand days from thieves, and when Zhou Tian didn't know that there was such a group of killers staring at him, he would definitely not guard against the other party. In this way, even if he usually acts casually, Zhou Tian will inevitably show some flaws sometimes. And as long as Zhou Tian shows a flaw, then as long as the other party seizes the opportunity, a successful attack will be enough to kill Zhou Tian.
As a result, Zhou Tian did not guard against those things, and when he lived in the territory as usual, he quickly gave those killers the opportunity to assassinate him.
"Hello, I'm here to exchange banknotes. ”
Even if Zhou Tian has earned a lot of CSB according to various opportunities, this does not mean that he does not need to earn CSB anymore. From the beginning to the end, after Zhou Tian developed his territory to a certain scale, the commerce in his territory has been continuously providing him with a lot of profits.
And the rules set by Zhou Tian at the beginning have not changed much, all the commercial currencies in Zhou Tian's territory are uniformly used in the paper money issued by him, no matter which country's gold coins, after arriving in Zhou Tian's territory, if they are not exchanged for paper money there, then it is difficult to use them normally.
Of course, Zhou Tian generally turned a blind eye to the fact that the residents in his territory privately exchanged paper money for gold coins, and then came to him to exchange paper money and earn the difference from it. After all, that kind of behavior is not very harmful to its business, and people who are reluctant to pay that money can come to him to exchange paper money, if this difference is not acceptable, it is estimated that the behavior of promoting paper money on Sunday is naturally more unacceptable.
Therefore, since Zhou Tian has the previous arrangement, it is naturally impossible for him to take the small actions of his subordinates too seriously.
However, although he acquiesced to the small actions of his residents, in general, the banknotes of Zhou Tian's territory still needed to be exchanged with him. It's just that Zhou Tian doesn't usually have much effort to do this kind of thing, so unless he is willing to wait until Zhou Tian is free to exchange it, even if he is a merchant, he will directly take gold coins to those residents under Zhou Tian to exchange paper money when he needs it.
But even so, some tourists and businessmen still choose to go to Zhou Tian to exchange banknotes, although their purpose in doing so may not be pure, but until now, Zhou Tian has not suffered any loss in this matter.
Because he had never had an accident before, although he had never relaxed his defense of his own safety, Zhou Tian was not too prepared for the people who came to him to exchange banknotes. In this way, when a 'tourist' came to his residence to exchange banknotes, Zhou Tian didn't think much about it, and after listening to the other party's words, he was ready to pick up the money bag handed to him casually.
It's just that......
Zhou Tian really didn't guard against the 'tourist', and when the other party asked him to exchange banknotes, Zhou Tian was ready to exchange banknotes directly for him. But just as Zhou Tian was about to do that, he didn't think about it, maybe the tourist didn't really come to him to exchange banknotes.
In this way, Zhou Tian did not have any precautions at that time, and he came into contact with the 'tourist' like that. In this way, if the other party was really ready to do something at that time, it is estimated that Zhou Tian would really be tricked nine times out of ten.
However, just when Zhou Tian was about to take over the money bag, he suddenly thought of some abnormal behavior of the 'tourist', and he had some doubts in his heart.
There are not many tourists who will come to him to exchange paper money, and when his residents find that they can make a difference in the price of paper money, unless they make a large transaction, a small amount of transaction is often at the time of their consumption, and they will also find the local currency to exchange. In this environment, the fact that this 'tourist' has waited so long for a small amount of paper money is not normal no matter how you look at it.
And if the 'tourist' did the kind of reaction that Zhou Tian could accept at that time in order to please him or other purposes, then the other party's expression made Zhou Tian a little concerned.
Under normal circumstances, unless it is necessary to exchange a large amount of paper money, and the exchange is carried out according to the insufficient savings in the hands of those residents under Zhou Tian, under normal circumstances, those merchants will rarely come to him to exchange paper money, even if there are so many people, most of them are asking for some advantage in Zhou Tian.
In this way, according to the normal situation, the 'tourist' did not exchange a large amount of banknotes, so he must have 'requested' Zhou Tian when he came to the door at this time. Not to mention what he should have asked Zhou Tian immediately, but to affirm his attitude towards Zhou Tian, it should definitely be more humble.
But in fact, the 'tourist' at that time seemed to put himself in a very low position. But in terms of expression, he didn't seem to take Zhou Tian too seriously, it was just a basic 'politeness' of commoners to nobles, and this situation, no matter how you look at it, doesn't look like the performance of someone who 'asks' for Zhou Tian.
Of course, Zhou Tian also found that the 'tourist's behavior was a little abnormal, and he was not a god, so it was impossible to know the identity of the other party and the purpose of approaching him. But even if you don't know the identity of the other party and what you are about to do, even if you don't know what the other party is going to do, as long as Zhou Tian knows that the 'tourist' is not behaving normally, it is likely that he is not a real tourist.
When there was that kind of speculation in his heart, Zhou Tian began to guard against the 'tourist'. After all, even if Zhou Tian no longer knows the origin of the other party, he must attach great importance to his own safety. And as long as the other party has a 1 in 10,000 chance of becoming a threat to himself, then it is inevitable that he will not be able to take precautions when facing the other party.
And even if Zhou Tian's strength has improved, if he wants to talk about it seriously, he is still just an 'ordinary person', he has not experienced the corresponding learning and events, and his mentality is actually no different from that of most ordinary people. In this way, when something happens, he is not mentally prepared, and he will not be able to completely hide his thoughts at that time.
Unlike Zhou Tian, some special professional members usually have a strong ability to observe when needed. If Zhou Tian didn't show any abnormality, when he found that Zhou Tian's eyes had changed, the 'tourist' quickly noticed that something was wrong, and at the same time reacted to the situation in time.
The 'tourist' who came to exchange banknotes on Sunday was actually a killer, and the purpose of his visit to Sunday must have been to assassinate him. Originally, according to the original plan, the 'tourist' didn't mean to deal with Zhou Tian immediately. But when it was discovered that Zhou Tian seemed to notice something, the 'tourist' reacted immediately.
It doesn't matter how Zhou Tian 'discovered' his identity, for the 'tourist', as long as he knows that Zhou Tian has discovered his identity, then he can immediately kill the other party in this situation. As for how Zhou Tian found out that something was wrong, that was not the focus of the 'tourist' at all.
Therefore, almost at the moment when Zhou Tian found that the 'tourist's performance was a little wrong and his face showed a little abnormality, the 'tourist' directly launched an assassination against Zhou Tian at that time.
"Die!"
casually threw the money bag in his hand towards Zhou Tian, and at some point the 'tourist' had an extra short dagger in his hand, and then he didn't wait for Zhou Tian to react, so he directly stabbed Zhou Tian with the short dagger in his hand.
Because he didn't have any precautions for that 'tourist' to act that way, if the 'tourist' was fast enough, it was honestly not impossible for him to stab Zhou Tian if he didn't take precautions. It can even be directly said that according to Zhou Tian's original strength, when facing the assassination of that 'tourist', he would be 100% hit, and now he only sees how badly the other party will be injured when he arrives.
However, in the past, when faced with the current situation, Zhou Tian would not have the ability to resist at all. But now that Zhou Tian has developed for a period of time, and after his strength has improved, he was faced with the assassination of that 'tourist' at that time, and although he can't ignore it, he really doesn't have any ability to resist.
As a result, when the 'tourist' saw that Zhou Tian seemed to have discovered his identity, he preemptively launched an assassination operation against him. Zhou Tian was frightened by the other party, stimulated by the death crisis, and opened his writing wheel eyes in an instant. Although it is not as stated in the novel, it is easy to make his writing wheel eye advanced after being stimulated a little, but after opening the writing wheel eye, the movement of the 'tourist' is instantly 'slowed down' at that time.
Naturally, the movements of the 'tourists' could not have really slowed down, but after opening the writing wheel eye on Sunday, the other party's actions must have slowed down a lot in his eyes. And in that case, since he felt that the other party's movements had slowed down, Zhou Tianzi had more time to deal with it.
Without hesitation, in the face of the threat of death at that time, at the moment when the assassination of the 'tourist' began, Zhou Tian also took timely measures to deal with it.
Sideways made a dodge action, and at the same time, at the moment when his body was a little unable to think, Zhou Tian did not forget to give the corresponding order to Arnold, who was hidden not far away.
Outcome...... (To be continued.) )
