Chapter 108: Assassination
In the middle of the night, heavy clouds obscured the bright moonlight and the stars, and except for the light from the torches, the rest of the place was almost integrated with the night. www.biquge.info If it weren't for the howling cold wind blowing and the footsteps of the patrolling soldiers, it would be like walking in the underworld.
Inside the city of Haritz. A group of men in black quietly left the Earl's mansion and secretly climbed out of the walls of Harez under the cover of night. Lurking in the shadowy corners of the way, he sneaked over the hastily erected fence and sneaked into the camp of the Kingdom Alliance.
"Lord Earl, there seems to be no one in the tent. What should I do?" said a dark shadow in a low voice.
"Maybe it's going to patrol, Charlie and Richard are guarding here with the Dragon's Breath Horn, if someone comes back, give him a look, the rest of the people scatter to find those nobles, if they find something that can be assassinated, they will be assassinated directly, and if they can't be assassinated, they will first look for other targets, and after half an hour, everyone will use the Dragon's Breath Horn to force a round together, and then we will take advantage of the chaos to retreat. ”
"Understood. A group of black-clothed people quietly dispersed, like a drop of water melted into the sea, silently. There was not a single wave.
At the same time, General Sharu also led a group of professionals gathered from various nobles to change into black clothes, quietly left the camp, secretly climbed over the city wall from a corner of the city wall, and then went directly to the earl's palace according to the map given by Nei Ying.
"The first detachment infiltrated the Earl's palace with me to kill the rebel leader Killian, and the second detachment dispersed and killed other rebel nobles in the city, and gathered at the Earl's Palace half an hour later, and those who could not arrive in time broke through on their own. ”
"Yes. Nearly fifty men in black quickly dispersed and entered the streets of Haritz.
"Follow the rest, let's eliminate the leader of the rebels together, it is said that the leader of the rebels has a sword girl professional under his command, everyone be careful. ”
"Yes. ”
A group of men in black quietly sneaked into the quiet Earl's mansion. "There is no one in the study and conference room, it should be resting in the backyard, a traitor is really a traitor, and it can't be a climate. General Sharu sneered and led his team into the backyard of the Earl's Court.
The backyard of Earl's Court is a small natural landscape, with rockery ponds and meandering runoff streams. The courtyard is full of green grass and vegetation, all kinds of exotic flowers and plants compete with each other, and the walls of the houses are covered with verdant vines. It is incompatible with the sandy city of Haritz.
"I didn't think that this earl would enjoy it, and after the city was broken, he must find the gardener who took care of this mansion, and give the gardener to Her Royal Highness, who likes rare plants, and maybe you will get a lot of rewards. ”
General Sharu shook his head violently, putting the idea aside, and now the primary goal was to kill the rebel leader Kirian.
With a wave of his hand, General Sharu took over all the points in the courtyard, and twenty skilled men jumped into the courtyard, ready to sneak into the bedroom and assassinate Killian.
At this moment, hundreds of blood-red thorns grew madly from all corners, enveloping the entire courtyard. A few slower professionals were instantly bound up by the spreading thorns, and the sharp stingers cut through the skins of the professionals, but no blood flowed out, and the hot blood was constantly swallowed by the blood-red thorns. The thorns, which were originally only the thickness of a wrist, thickened at a speed visible to the naked eye.
And the few professionals who were entangled in thorns quickly turned into a shriveled skin and fell down.
Many of the professionals were shocked when they saw this, and hurriedly gathered in the courtyard, eager to get as far away from this strange thorn as possible.
General Sharu was shocked when he saw this, but now he could only rush hard, "Traitor Kirian, do you dare to show up for a fair fight?" After speaking, a dense aura appeared on his body, and it seemed as if the whole person was blurred a lot, as if it was a phantom.
Seeing that there was no answer, General Sharu waved his sword and rushed towards the door. Just halfway through, a vine that had been crawling on the wall instantly popped out and knocked General Sharu flying.
General Sharu, who was knocked into the air, hit his head on the cage formed by the blood-colored thorns, and in an instant, dozens of blood-colored thorns wrapped General Sharu tightly. In a matter of moments, the originally tall and sturdy General Sharu turned into a shriveled corpse and fell to the ground.
"I hate robbers who sneak in, you bastards, die. With the roar of a woman, the blood-colored thorns danced wildly, entwining the professionals in the courtyard one by one, sucking them into dry corpses.
After the Scarlet Thorns had slain the last of the professionals, the courtyard was calm again.
At this moment, a woman's voice came from the house, "I said how Count Killian was so kind to leave us the best accommodation in the mansion, because he was afraid of being assassinated. ”
"Who knows, we've done him a great favor anyway, and it shouldn't be too much to ask him for tomorrow. ”
"You have the word. ”
"Well, well, I'll think about what good I should ask for. ”
That's right, the two wizards who live in the courtyard of the Earl's Court are officially from the Quiet Woodland, and since the two wizards were sneaked into the academy by Kenan, they have suffered from paranoia of victimization, and they have always arranged the place where they live to be impregnable. Even if you carry it around at home, you will be full of demonic weapons, and you will be completely frightened.
Although General Sharu's team was completely wiped out, Count Killian transferred all the professionals in the city to the assassination team, resulting in an extreme lack of high-level combat power in the other noble mansions in Harez City.
In a mansion guarded only by ordinary soldiers, it is a mantis to resist the assassination of professionals. It's just that the aristocracy of ordinary people is like a lamb to the slaughter when facing the professional.
However, since General Sharu only gave the order to assassinate the nobles, and these professionals were repeatedly warned by their masters not to meddle in their own affairs before they came, everything was premised on protecting themselves. As a result, these professionals scattered and evacuated Harez City after killing all the nobles they could find in the mansion. Missed the best opportunity to capture Harriez City.
If General Sharu can be cautious and let the professionals sneak up on the city gate and send a large army to storm Haritz City, maybe Haritz City has fallen at this moment, then the Kingdom of Gordon may be in a different situation, but unfortunately there are not so many ifs in the world.
When the professionals returned to the camp, they saw not the welcoming crowd, but the corpses of their masters lying on the ground.
Except for the Duke of Zion and the Duke of Norman, who were closely protected by the Assassins and were not succeeded by the Assassins, most of the remaining nobles were assassinated by the Assassins, and only a few minor nobles survived due to the fact that they lived in a very remote area.
After the night passed, Harez City and the Kingdom coalition attacked each other, and it was up to everyone to decide who would win and who would lose.
