Chapter 239: Lin Hai Snow Plain

readx;

Hiding in the shadows of the woods, the man carefully surveyed and watched the team not far below. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoOn the white snow, these moving black dots are unusually conspicuous.

At the moment, he could clearly see that the people walking on the snowy field were clenching their weapons, looking around nervously, and it was obvious that the very successful attack last night had put a lot of pressure on them, but this was only the beginning, since these guys had no intention of going home, then he had to continue to put more pressure on them. As an Assassin, he knew exactly what to do, how to silently take the life of the other party, how to put pressure on the other party that he could not bear, and finally kill him completely...... It's an art and it's a strategy. He didn't mean to underestimate these mages, and it was also a very tricky trouble to construct a golem, but he also knew very well that this was not only his own danger, but also his own opportunity.

What's next?

The man moved his gaze to the mage in front of him, stared at the slender body of the other party, and couldn't help licking his lips, although it looked like the female mage was almost middle-aged, but it was interesting to play because of this, huh...... Maybe you should change your plans, after all, while the mission is important, pleasure is also essential, especially in a goddamn place like this.

Thinking of this, the man couldn't help but be a little puzzled, according to the intelligence, shouldn't this group of guys go to connect with the group of rebels in the Senna family's territory? But now according to their route, they have already deviated, but it doesn't matter, it's better. Although the mysterious employer is also annoying, but the price he offers is not expensive, and it is not the first time he has done this business, knowing that the generous commission is not only the reward for his own labor, I am afraid that there is also the meaning of having to keep his mouth shut...... But......... The man reached out and grabbed the dagger at his waist, his white tight body pressed against his body, and the reflection of the snow made it impossible to even see his face, this mission should have gone well. But the man felt a little uneasy, he didn't know what the reason was, he always thought that there seemed to be someone else following these guys. Although he couldn't find any tangible evidence, the instincts he had cultivated over the years made him a little uneasy.

However, looking behind those guys, you can't see anyone, which is also normal, after all, there is only yourself here, and besides, who else will know the whereabouts of these guys?

The man couldn't help but raise his head again, and carefully looked at the woods and hillside behind the target, which were empty, not to mention people, and not even half of the ghost shadow was seen. He couldn't help but smile and shook his head, secretly laughing at his nervousness, he was not a newcomer for the first time, and he was still so suspicious......... Even being too relaxed is a very deadly danger.

Then the man turned, hunched his waist and flicked lightly, and in the next moment his figure leaped over the branches of the tree in a perfectly gorgeous curve, and then disappeared into the depths of the woods -- the movement was so natural that there was no pause, and the smoothness was simply dazzling.

However, he didn't notice that there was a pair of eyes that were leisurely watching him from behind his back.

"Sure enough, there were guests. ”

Watching the man's figure disappear, Yulian sneered, then withdrew his gaze. Although this guy also seems to be a veteran of assassination, but unfortunately, no matter how strong his skills are, he has not surpassed the level of humans. Yu Lian didn't notice his existence before, firstly, because he did not expect that someone would follow by him, and secondly, the two sides were not in the same direction, and the direction chosen by this assassin was obviously flank, so that although it was a bit risky, he could observe the other party's every move more clearly. On the other hand, Yu Lian and the others chose to hang their tails -- the reason is very simple: they are here to drive the insects into the hole, and naturally they don't want them to die in the middle of the way.

And after noticing that an uninvited guest has uninvited to participate in their game of eagle catching chickens, it is really easy to find out the other party - unless that guy has the soul ability and indulgence skills of the chaotic era, and is also a gifted knight, it is impossible to hide under the soul fluctuations of Yuren and the twin sisters.

"I've found a target here, what's going on with you?"

"There's no one to be found, brother. ”

"No obvious target, Dad. ”

Soon, through a telepathic connection, the twin sisters quickly answered Yuren's inquiry.

"So, it seems that there is only one person on the other side, it's really interesting, he really has so much confidence that he can kill everyone here by himself?"

You Lian sneered and glanced at the woods around him, and couldn't help but be a little curious. The strength of the other party is only at a high-level level, of course, if this is placed on the current continent, it can be regarded as a somewhat capable character. However, mages are not vegetarians, take those constructed golems as an example, in the chaotic era, the most powerful constructed golems could withstand the attacks of dozens of quasi-soul knights by one person without pressure. Of course, this thing is obviously not that powerful now, but it is still more than enough to use it to top a group army of mid-level swordsmen or three or four high-level swordsmen -- that's why the Mage Guild takes this thing so closely. Now that the knowledge has been lost, most people don't know the true power of these constructed golems, otherwise, I'm afraid that the Mage Association would have become a public enemy of the mainland long ago.

And according to Faren, there are only fifteen Golems in the entire Mage Association, and this time her teacher sent four at a time, which is really a big deal, and I don't know what kind of character that Twelve-Star Mage is, after all, it is not easy to transport this thing out.

Of course, Yuren wasn't stupid enough to really think that this was something that could be done by one or two people, and he looked at the vanished convoy again, and then shrugged his shoulders.

Although he has not yet been able to grasp the whole picture, Yu Lian can be sure that after he returns, it is imperative to carry out a purge of the Mage Guild.

"How's it going, Hemya, Seminya?"

"Everything went well. ”

"Go straight down. ”

The twin sisters' responses were as simple and clear as ever, without any superfluous nonsense. Julien smiled, and then he looked behind him again, and happened to see the figures of Ofariel and Pherim, without the help of Euren and the twin sisters, these two honor students had to use the little knowledge they had learned from Yu Ren to track and use it now, but it seems that the top students are the top students, even if they can't grasp the essence of it, they can learn it well.

The distance between them was far behind those mages at the moment, but Yulian was not nervous, nor was it surprising, in fact, as long as Offariel could still sense the magic fluctuations, even if the two sides were eight blocks away, they could easily pull each other out of the alley. However, considering that after yesterday's attack, these mages may be able to sense the movement around them through spells, so Yuren asked Offariel to keep his distance from them as much as possible. As for Faren, he didn't have to worry at all -- if a gifted knight with the strength of an archmage didn't even know how to counter and dodge spells, then he might as well just find a piece of tofu and crash it to death.

He looked up again, and walked forward.

On the snow, there are no footprints.

It was clear that the mages had been terrified by last night's attack, and they didn't even stop while eating, they already knew their whereabouts had been revealed, but they didn't know who was targeting them, but they didn't seem to be in a good mood, and even had a skirmish or two on the way. Most likely caused by the hooked nose, he seems to be very unpopular among the group, but his power and status are still very high, so that the final loser in every quarrel is his opponent and not himself. However, this does not mean that bad luck will leave them.

The sun was once again below the horizon, and as darkness fell, the mage squad found a leeward spot on the hillside to rest. However, the aftermath of last night's attack can be discerned from their arrangement -- the mages gave up resting in the woods in favor of an endless plain, and before resting, they took out several crystals and suspended them on the periphery of the camp, creating a protective ring.

Everything was as expected.

Lying on the snow, the man watched the every move of the group of mages, and couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth and smile coldly. These mages claim to be very smart, but in fact they are extremely stupid, he has been dealing with mages for half his life, and he already knows what kind of reaction this group of fools will make, and now when he sees these protective barriers, the man not only does not feel troubled in his heart, but a touch of pride arises spontaneously -- the other party is already under his control, and there is no change in the slightest.

Thinking of this, the man took a deep breath of cold air, and then looked at the sky, today's weather is not bad, the raging wind and snow seem to be a little tired, and began to change in the direction of the breeze and light snow, but people who live in the mountains all year round know that such weather can not be done accurately, through the folding of the clouds, you can detect that a new storm is brewing, perhaps more dangerous than before.

At most, it will not be more than half a night.

Thinking of this, the man's mood calmed down, he reached into his arms, then took out a slender prismatic crystal, and waited quietly.

And those mercenaries were also very vigilant tonight, although many of them were a little tired after a day's journey, but the death of their companions still made them feel frightened and angry -- on the one hand, they vowed to make the other party pay for their blood, and on the other hand, they were also afraid that they would fall into the same fate as the other party, and that was definitely not a joke.

But anger is anger, and the natural laws of the human body are irreversible, and no matter how indignant these people are, they cannot have the spirit to carry out night vigils and patrols after a whole day of walking on the mountain roads. Therefore, they only divided two more people to be responsible for the vigil, and the rest of them quickly began to rest. And in the crystal barrier above the plain, four huge constructs are still guarding the outside.

The distance of the camp had widened a bit because it was on the hillside, and the eight mercenaries were scanned each other with bows and arrows as they had done yesterday, but they were not too worried about accidents, since there was a crystal barrier here, and if any alien life came into contact with its brilliance, it would immediately sound a warning, which was much faster than searching with the naked eye, and it was more accurate.

However, nothing is perfect.

The howling blizzard appeared again, and its degree far exceeded the level of wind and snow, it was more like the angry waves in the forest, wave after wave of snowflakes were like rolling waves in the wind under the impetus of the wind to speed forward, and the cold wind blowing on the face made people feel as if there was a knife cutting your face as painful. But the mercenaries were clearly tried and tested, and they quickly put on their fur hats and necklines to ward off the cold wind, leaving only a gap in which their eyes could see through the howling wind and snow -- and in fact, the camp was now like a boat tumbling in the midst of a stormy sea, and even a slightly larger wave could knock it over completely, swallowing up the only light and making it disappear into darkness.

There are three more steps.

The man moved again, he raised his head, carefully estimated the distance between himself and the crystal in front of him, took out the crystal in his arms with a solemn face, aimed at the light source in front of him, he gritted his teeth, and tried to keep his hand steady, the cold snow and chill had already soaked his body, but it didn't matter, it was still within the range he could bear.

As long as nothing goes wrong.

Under the man's small new movements, the crystal in his hand gradually overlapped with the crystal that exuded brilliance in front of him, and then, the man frowned and squeezed hard.

A faint red glow flashed through the crystal, and at the same time, the light of the guardian crystal on the opposite side was also dim, but it quickly returned to normal. On this snowy night, I am afraid that even if people are seen, they only think that the wind and snow are too big and shroud the light for a while.

Very good.

After making sure there was nothing wrong, the man withdrew the crystal, he grabbed the dagger at his waist, and then bowed down, silently reaching the inner line.

"You see, that's real stealth. ”

However, the man didn't expect that at this moment, not far behind him, someone was using him as props and teaching materials.

"First of all, we must determine our own position, then we must determine the sight and direction of the other party, and finally we need to rely on the weather to calculate the possible surname of the found, these are all conclusions that need to be carefully calculated and imagined. Moreover, try to keep your body as low as possible, so as not to be discovered, especially if you need to pay attention to your own shadow -- in this case, you will become an ostrich if you ignore your head and tail, and even if you hide yourself well, if you are noticed that there is a restless shadow dangling around, there is no good fruit to eat. ”

Yulian pointed to the tragic figure in the distance, and said to Ofaril beside him, since there were ready-made teaching materials at the moment, of course he didn't mind using them.

"But what if the other party finds out?"

"Of course he ran, didn't you notice that the direction he chose was the most convenient place to run, and if he was discovered, he could run away immediately, and the other party would not be able to catch up at all. Because if they want to chase, they have to run downhill, and in such weather, they need to protect the camp and simply can't get too far...... Look, this guy is going to do it, but it's better to see than to hear. ”

As he spoke, Yuren reached back, grasped the hilt of his sword, and looked at Offariel with a smile.

"As the saying goes, it's so good, so I can show you how it is, and it's not that hard anyway. ”

Then, he drew his sword with his backhand and flung it forward at will.

An icy chill suddenly flew up.

The man shuddered.

Under the cover of the wind and snow, he had reached the edge of the camp, and all he had to do was look for an opportunity to kill any of them and retreat. This is psychological warfare, as long as they are given such fear, then their actions will be easier in the future.

One of the guards, who seemed to be blinded by the snowstorm, coughed loudly, then lowered his head and reached out to wipe his eyes.

Now is the time.

The man drew his dagger and stepped forward, giving him another three seconds to kill his target with ease.

However, a chill passed by the man at this moment. Originally, the man thought it was just a turbulent flow of cold wind, but when he noticed the hot touch coming from his shoulder, he was stunned for a moment, and then immediately restrained his movements. At that moment, he seemed to realize that some unknowable danger was approaching him.

But it was too late.

The guard standing not far in front of the man stopped moving, his body began to shake in the wind and snow, and then he fell forward sharply.

The "well-protected" head was also completely separated from the body at this moment, and the bright red and smelly blood rose to the sky, flying around under the storm. All this happened between the lightning and flint, and the man didn't have time to react at all, he was already sprayed with blood, and when he opened his eyes, he had already realized that something was wrong.

"You see, I said a long time ago that this is the escape route he chose just in case. ”

Looking at the figure that was rapidly disappearing into the darkness with a roar, Yuren shrugged his shoulders, and then looked at Ofaril triumphantly, revealing a victorious smile.
