Chapter 168: Assassination (20)

The two Assassins soon disappeared around the corner at the end of the street, and Nightingale and Aoki Shiraku, who were hiding in the shadows, never appeared, allowing the two Assassins to roam freely through the city.

As time passed, the hazy night gradually began to envelop the entire Azure City, and the Azure City finally entered the evening.

The two assassins also happened to appear outside a camp at this time, and the palace inside the camp was heavily guarded, which belonged to a high-standard area in the blue city.

But in these palaces, there is hardly any light to be seen, and there is no figure walking around. However, in the open space around the palace building, there are many stone pillars standing abruptly, and some large trees that look like they have just been cultivated and transplanted.

Between these stone pillars and large trees, there are connected plank paths and corridors, and on the canopy and some of the larger stone platforms, there are new wooden pavilions.

The inside of the pavilion was already lit up, and all kinds of birds and birds could be seen walking in it, and in the center of this area, there was an even greater building in the sky, bigger, higher, and truly like a pavilion in the sky.

The peacocks sent by Emperor Yu, or the feather sparrows, lived in the highest and most central position.

At the time of the establishment of the Blue City, because there were almost no birds and sparrows joining, the Blue City was basically designed as an ordinary building. And with the addition of the Yudi personnel, a ground building here has been transformed into this appearance.

The buildings on the ground have not been demolished, but have been preserved, but they are basically in a state of desolation. Because those peacocks and the birds and beasts that follow them like to live in high places even more.

And here, it has also become a quite characteristic place in the blue city.

This place is naturally not a forbidden area, but there are many sentry posts, except for some particularly sensitive places, which can also be visited casually.

But those demon clans who are used to walking on the ground all year round, even if many of them can already fly with mana, they seem to have a natural fear of heights, and they rarely appear here.

The daring children of the human race are largely not allowed to come here because most of the area is so high that walking on the roads here is like walking on a cliff, even though many of the roads here are already wide.

Only a small number of non-bird demon clans, as well as the largest adults in the human race, will come here to experience the feeling of walking in the sky, quietly looking into the distance, and the most of them here are the increasing number of birds and birds.

At this time, two Assassins appeared, already two adult males of human beings, intending to take advantage of the last period of curfew to complete a perfect assassination, assassinating two or more peacocks at the highest point in this aerial building.

Unlike the rest of the Blue City, this large skyscraper has a nighttime curfew. Because these birds, led by peacocks, basically do not have the habit of staying up late, and uphold the habit of going to bed early and getting up early, they don't like to be disturbed at night.

Even if there are some night owls among them, they do like silence and solitude, and they don't like outsiders. And because it's so high, the road is staggered and complicated, and if you don't fly well, you can easily fall and get seriously injured.

So here, before seven o'clock in the evening, all outsiders are going to be evacuated. If you want to be here on a big night, it's impossible.

The two Assassins were about to take advantage of the evening to finish their assassination before seven o'clock, causing chaos.

It's a bit funny or helpless to say, even if you are already a great grandmaster and can shuttle up and down freely and quickly, many people still have a natural fear of heights.

In the face of the many scattered aerial paths, there were already at least five Grand Master-level assassins who were already on the verge of fainting, even though it was basically impossible for them to fall to their deaths, after all, they could escape at any time with their escape techniques.

It would not be possible to complete a perfect assassination.

It's also helpless to say, in fact, the Grand Master Assassin who infiltrated Azure City didn't know that there were only these two assassins, but in the end, only these two assassins could carry out this assassination mission of the Peacock.

Originally, he thought that he would kill at least half of the peacocks, but he could only retreat and hope to kill one or two...... The other Assassins had no choice but to turn to other targets.

At this time, they were also able to understand a little, why Emperor Yu and the Dragon Emperor were standing tall in the Ten Thousand Saints Kingdom, and that Sky City and Deep Sea Dragon Palace were not so easy to capture.

"It's unlucky to say. ”

Standing outside the rather large pavilion in the sky, one of the Assassins looked up, and with some annoyance, he transmitted to his companion that it was the newcomer who had just advanced among the two assassins.

"It was obviously a team operation, but in the end, it turned out to be the two of us...... With such a complicated aerial property market, if it leaks, the two of us may be shot into a sieve......"

"Therefore, as an Assassin, oneself has always been the most important, even if the most urgent task is, it is secondary, or even completely abandoned. ”

The other assassin senior smiled faintly and sent his voice back.

"It's said that let's kill two peacocks, but in fact, let's kill one together and evacuate safely, rest assured, this is still very certain. ”

As soon as the senior assassin finished speaking, he stretched out his hand, revealing a set of independent timekeeping tools that belonged to him, followed him for many years, and now had a mechanical watch that was similar to what he wanted now.

Looking at the mechanical watch that had followed him for many years, an imperceptible circle appeared in the left eye of the Assassin senior, and with the appearance of this circle, the Assassin senior's gaze directly passed several blocks and saw a small clock hanging in a small shop.

The timing is consistent.

Seeing the actions of the seniors, the newly advanced assassin beside him did the same, and then the two of them showed their timing tools together, and compared them with each other.

See eye to eye.

"It's almost time, let's go in, let's go to the selected target number six first, it's just closer to this entrance, I guess that guy is about to sleep now. ”

The assassin senior smiled slightly, and sent a message to his companion.

"Yes, it's the agreed time. ”

The newcomer who had just advanced also smiled slightly, but he could see that he was still a little nervous.

Although he was already very talented as an assassin to be able to advance to the Great Grandmaster alive, he was only a Grandmaster after all, and this time he went deep into the Great Grandmaster's lair, he still retreated, even if he claimed to be a genius, he was inevitably a little nervous.

"Speaking of which, senior, don't you feel that we seem to be standing here a little hard? There is still a slight feeling of blood and qi surging, am I still a little nervous? ”

The two assassins were just about to act, and the newly advanced assassin said with some embarrassment, but he finally said it, after all, in the face of an assassination mission of this level, it is not a shame to be a little stressful.

Hearing the words of the junior assassin, the senior assassin couldn't help but frown, because he seemed to have this feeling too. It's just that this feeling is too slight, and as a senior Grand Master, this slight adverse reaction was originally not worth mentioning.

This is not even one percent of a mild cold, it seems that it is just a bit of a feeling of staying up late, but in the current situation, it is a little worrying that both of them have such a feeling.

The assassin suddenly stopped his intention to enter the air building, and suddenly stopped his body, intending to test his own situation first, after all, as an assassin, it is prudent to be cautious.

It's not just about the mission, it's about your own life, not to mention on the enemy's territory.

Seeing that the assassin senior stopped and did not move, the assassin who had just advanced also disappeared in an instant, and continued to stand there for a long time, not knowing what the senior found again.

"You've been exposed, and as an Assassin, is this a sign that the mission has failed, and it's time to stop. ”

At this moment, Nightingale suddenly appeared in front of the two Assassins, a feminine smile on their faces obscured by the shadows.

“.........”

“.........”

Both Assassins stood stunned, but neither of them acted immediately.

"You seem to have been a member of the organization originally, but I didn't expect to become a great grandmaster. But do you think that the organization has cultivated you for so many years, and it is so easy to leave? Since the assassination fails, it is another good choice to catch you. ”

The assassin who belonged to the senior said coldly, but he didn't panic at all, but said there provocatively. But as he spoke, the button of the mechanical watch he was hiding in his hand was pressed by mana.

Although I don't know when or how it was discovered, the leaked information still has to be passed out.

Compared to this senior assassin, the other Assassin who had just advanced next to him was a little nervous. After all, there are many great grandmasters in the Azure City, and the woman wrapped in the shadow on the opposite side seems to be one of the several big names at the top of the Azure City, even if he hasn't made a move, this assassin can't help but feel the huge pressure.

After all, he had just advanced, and originally, he just wanted to follow the team's actions and accumulate experience......

PS: First send and then change.
