Chapter 170: Assassination (22)

"Is that you?"

The old man, who seemed to be seriously injured, condensed his scattered gaze for a moment, and then saw clearly who the person in front of him was, it was Mu Qingliu, who had been watching the battle outside the ring, and the little green fox who had been.

Because of the serious injuries he had received, or a head trauma, the once veteran assassin was in a rather bad state at this time, and even his vision was scattered and blurred.

"Do emaciated humans who don't even have any mana stand in my way? ”

The old man still maintained his appearance, and did not show any offensive reactions, but at the same time, he did not shy away from his true identity.

As he spoke, the Assassin flipped his hand and picked up his mechanical watch and looked at the time on it.

After such a magnificent collision, this mechanical watch seems to have not been affected in the slightest, and it is actually sturdy. However, the pointer on the surface has stepped back nearly two quarters compared to before.

It's not that there's a problem with this mechanical watch, it's the real time. By the time the Assassin was in the midst of his illusion, he had already moved the time forward by nearly two quarters, allowing the two Assassins to act ahead of the agreed time.

Because I want to prevent being detected by the other side, I didn't make too much of this time in advance. Naturally, the Assassin's watch had not been tampered with, but when the two Assassins looked at their timekeeping tools, they saw nothing more than visions.

"There is still a big problem with your plan, the appointed time has not arrived, and my companions have naturally hidden such a big movement. Standing in front of me like this, aren't you afraid of being killed in an instant?"

"Heh, if my perception is correct, there don't seem to be other great masters nearby. ”

The assassin who turned into an old man looked up at Mu Qingliu who was blocking the entrance of the alley, as if he wanted to force Mu Qingliu to withdraw on his own, not quite like a move.

"Those companions of yours are hiding like rats, do you really think that someone will take the risk to help you? Now you are the target I am waiting for, I want to see if a mortal like me can kill the Great Grandmaster. ”

As he spoke, Mu Qingliu pulled out his long sword, and the moment the sword body was unsheathed, a dense wind flow began to condense around the sword body at a rapid pace, as if countless wind currents were squeezed around the sword body, forming a naked eye-visible and faint cyan wind swirl around the sword body.

"Naturally, I can't beat the Great Grandmaster in a normal state, but now you are just trying my sword for me. ”

Mu Qingliu held the long sword and naturally pointed diagonally to the ground, the dust and leaves on the ground were constantly rolled towards the sword body by the wind vortex around the sword body, and the worry was constantly pushed away, looking full of momentum.

"Good sword, but you think you'll be able to defeat me?"

The old man looked at Mu Qingliu, who suddenly pulled out the long sword, and said with a slight frown, as if he felt the pressure of being threatened, but the assassin thought that this pressure came from the long sword in Mu Qingliu's hand.

As the Assassin finished speaking, he suddenly shoved his left hand into his mouth, and then ate all the flesh of his left hand, revealing a glittering silver phalange, which looked like a phalanx weapon.

And as he swallowed the entire flesh of his left hand, the old man, who originally looked weak, suddenly swelled extremely and turned into a strong man with a height of more than two meters. And as the body skyrocketed, the clothes were completely torn, revealing a strong and tight body.

And the old woman who was supporting the man turned into a long sword at this time, which looked about the same size as Mu Qingliu's long sword, and this assassin turned out to be a sword wielder.

The assassin shook his left hand, which was like cast silver, and held the sword horizontally in front of him, smiling fiercely at Mu Qingliu. Compared to the previous state of the Assassins, the state of the Assassins at this time looked like they were back at the top.

Seeing the assassin suddenly burst out in such a strong state, Mu Qingliu did not panic in the slightest, but instead showed a happy smile, and then disappeared from his standing position in an instant, leaving an explosive gust of wind in his original standing position.

The pupils of the assassin, who was also holding a long sword, dilated rapidly, and it seemed that he had caught Mu Qingliu's figure in an instant, and he disappeared in the same instant, silent.

In the middle of the two, the two of them were so fast that they didn't show their figures, but they had already collided together, and a pale cyan wind pressure and invisible force burst out from one point, and in an instant, they turned into two swirling windmill blades, swirling across the walls on both sides.

The walls on both sides didn't seem to have changed in any way, but two long gaps stretched straight across the walls, cutting through the thick walls back and forth.

At the moment of the collision, two blurred figures suddenly jumped into the sky, and then, more than twenty meters in the air, an invisible energy blurred towards the sky, and a pale cyan trajectory fell to the ground in a flash.

"How is that possible?!"

In the sky, swinging invisible energy towards the sky, the tall assassin appeared, and turned his head in disbelief to look at the alley below.

"You lost from the beginning, and in your current state, the stronger you are, the weaker you are. I didn't defeat you in the heyday, so I don't have to worry too much. ”

In the laneway, Mu Qingliu stood there, flicked his hand and reinserted the sword body that was still wrapped in the wind vortex into the scabbard, raised his head and said with a little emotion.

"I see......

The assassin hovering in the sky sighed regretfully, but his head still turned back, and then suddenly fell off his neck, bursting out with a brutal stream of blood.

The corpse, broken in two, plopped twice, and quickly fell from the sky into the alley.

"If the difference in strength was too big from time to time, and I was worried about being counter-killed, I could have spared your life, you could have been a good opponent, and you could have even discussed it well, maybe this is war. ”

Looking at the swordsman assassin who had turned into a corpse, Mu Qingliu inexplicably felt a little sympathetic, and looked up slightly at the sky above the alley, but unexpectedly found two big cats squatting there on the left and right.

"Is it over? Wow, is it too late?"

The slender tanuki cat looked at the scene in the alleyway, and said regretfully, it seems that he originally wanted to get involved.

"I didn't expect our chief to be so emotional?"

Another big orange cat with a sturdy body simply sat on the wall, touched his big belly and said with a smile.

"Let's go, don't delay our chief realization, this is indeed a rare battle. ”

The big orange cat smiled, and then the two big cats disappeared from here in an instant.

Mu Qingliu stood there and smiled, then turned around and walked towards the outside of the alleyway, the battlefield would naturally be cleaned by someone. But Mu Qingliu didn't take a few steps, but suddenly began to stumble, and he could only continue to move forward by holding on to the wall.

After all, fighting with a body without mana blessing until now, facing a great grandmaster, even if it is already quite heavy on his hands, it is still a huge burden on Mu Qingliu's body.

But fortunately, it was very calm next, Mu Qingliu gradually left this area, and the entire Azure City was now very calm, and was not obviously affected by the assassins' attacks.

: First issue and then change.
