Chapter 652: Female Assassin
The assassin's reaction was swift, and in the next second of shock, the streamer in his hand had already swept towards the figure like lightning.
This blow did not have the astonishing momentum of the previous sneak attack on Eliza, but it was more concise and effective, and the power was not much inferior.
The mysterious figure did not move, and it was about to be pierced by this blow, and suddenly, the streamer stopped, as if a poisonous snake had been suddenly choked by seven inches.
It turned out to be an awl, with a snow-white blade and a strange texture faintly visible on the handle. The tip of the cone was easily grasped by a hand, and no matter how hard the Assassin tried, he could not advance or retreat.
The assassin's full force was easily received by the other party, and his heart sank, and he immediately gave up his weapon, and at the same time a ball of flame burst open, and then with the cover of the flames, his body retreated sharply backwards like light smoke, and several ups and downs had already escaped.
In fact, the fleeing figure was only a phantom, and the Assassin's true body had silently sneaked in the other direction, quickly changing into a cloak as he went.
The cloaked man swaggered a few blocks to an alley, and finally lost that sense of danger, and was about to breathe a sigh of relief, when he felt an extra thing in his hand, an awl, and the tip of the cone was held by one hand at will, and no matter how hard he exerted, he could not advance or retreat.
Could it have just been ...... Hallucinations?The assassin had a creepy feeling, knowing that the strength of this mysterious enemy was unfathomable, and he didn't care about what to hide, and the tip of his tongue quickly swallowed an inaudible incantation, and the sharp cone burst out with dazzling light: "Extinction Light!"
With the sharp cone as the center, the burst of light spreads out, like a small sun, bursting out with devastating intense light and heat.
To the horror of the Assassins, everything within the radius of the "sun" did not burn and evaporate as expected, and the surrounding space was filled with strange liliang, and the light of extinction seemed to sink into a quagmire and was quickly swallowed up.
The assassin felt Liliang uncontrollably pouring the awl in his hand towards the other party, and his body trembled. Finally, the other party stopped devouring the power and let go of his hand.
The assassin staggered back a few steps with the awl in his hand, but did not flee - the difference in strength between himself and this mysterious enemy was too great for it to escape or fight back, it was better to keep Liliang, and at least there was a possibility of ending his life as a last resort.
"Who are you?" the Assassin finally spoke. It was a woman's voice, a little hoarse, and I don't know if it was the original voice.
I guess that's what I asked. The other party seemed to smile, although he couldn't see his face clearly, he could feel the meaning contained in that smile, "'Extinction Light' is a top-level light magic, right? It seems that the most commonly used attack methods and liliang characteristics are deliberately hidden?"
The female assassin was silent for a moment, then asked rhetorically, "You are not her man?"
"I'm not sure she, girl," the man said with interest, "but as a guest at dinner, I'm just a little interested in what happens suddenly, especially the serial murder game you've set up, which is ingenious." First, he used the defeat of the group of assassins to attract everyone's attention, but when everyone let their guard down, they suddenly killed the killer. It's me. It's just as hard to guard against. ”
The female assassin clutched her injured shoulder and shook her head: "If I am facing a real saint-level powerhouse, it is impossible for me to achieve my goal, even if it is a sneak attack." Moreover, the so-called killing game was set by herself at all, and I just made a temporary cameo and played a small role. ”
Although the female assassin's face was obscured by a strange layer of liliang, the man's faintly red gaze seemed to penetrate that cover, looking directly at her true face and even her heart. The woman felt naked. Secretly frightened: This mysterious person must be a real saint-level powerhouse, and has even reached the peak of the saint-level. In the case of human shijie, this kind of powerhouse is already the pinnacle existence that everyone needs to look up to. Unless it's the closest thing to a god above the legendary pinnacle, like ......
"It turned out to be a game within a game," the man seemed to realize something, and nodded: "What if...... I said, you can trade the whole thing for a chance to leave, what would you choose?"
The female assassin replied categorically, "I'd rather die." ”
"I can see your determination from the look in your eyes, so ......," the man thought as he cupped his chin, "well, you can go." ”
The female assassin was a little stunned, and then showed suspicion, so easily let her go? Could it really be that the other party was just a passerby, asking curiously?
"By the way, the price still has to pay a little ......"
The man's figure appeared in front of him in an instant, and the female assassin was about to make a move, when she felt that her body was completely uncontrollable, and then a strong manly aura approached, and before she could react, her mouth was blocked by the man's lips, and her whole body trembled, and the whole person seemed to fall into a dream.
When he woke up, the man and the strange magic power disappeared without a trace, as if it was really just a dream just now.
The female assassin subconsciously touched her moist lips, gritted her teeth, and covered her shoulders as she disappeared into the night.
At the same time, Chen Rui of the Temple of Light on the other side touched his lips, revealing a look of crying and laughing - under his endowment, the incarnation outside the body can have a relatively independent consciousness and act alone as another person. This consciousness has the ability to betray itself, but it carries some of the original character traits of Shura, such as...... That kind of behavior just now.
The feeling of intimacy was transmitted to the subject through some kind of wonderful connection, which made Chen Rui quite speechless.
In the Temple of Light, Paul had already heard the news and rushed to the room with Eliza for emergency treatment, and there were Wesley and other Knights of Light outside who were strictly guarded, even Solanton was not allowed to approach.
This assassination incident was very bizarre, and at the moment when he was surrounded by the dark sky, Chen Rui clearly felt that Eliza's spiritual power was peeping at him. Chen Rui didn't know where he had revealed his flaws, at that moment, Eliza's most concern was not the assassin, it was him, or it could be that the assassin's strength was not enough to make Eliza cautious.
When Chen Rui discovered that one of the assassins' targets was the fat priest Mana, several thoughts turned in his mind in an instant, but he finally didn't make a move. Mana's goal is to be the bishop of the Yangshao royal capital, and in the past two days, because Chen Rui has successfully obtained Eliza's "appreciation", Mana's mind has become more active, and at the same time, he is afraid that this partner's wings will be hard and uncontrollable, and he wants Chen Rui to go to the Yangshao royal capital church to serve as a knight of light. There is even a faint hint of using the contract as a threat.
How could Chen Rui have time to accompany the fat man to get involved in the church's power game, as for the blackmail, it was a joke, and now with Eliza's peeping, he simply stood by and watched.
He didn't expect the second assassination in advance, but the strength of the assassin Demon Emperor couldn't hide his feelings, and after discovering that the assassin's target was Eliza, this time Chen Rui decisively reminded him.
Eliza's status is special, once she dies here. None of the people present could get out of the way, and it would definitely have an impact on Jihua who infiltrated the White Cliffs, so he made a decisive decision on the spot, and as a result, Eliza and the assassin were both defeated, and finally saved her life.
The information fed back by Shura made Chen Rui a little puzzled, judging from the mental fluctuation sensing of the female assassin. There should be no lie, this time it is not a serial kill, but a game within a game, that is, the first assassination was manipulated by Eliza herself, and the female assassin just cleverly mixed into Eliza's layout and took the opportunity to launch a killing blow.
So, the real murderer of Mana was Eliza, and Mana was too late to curry favor with Eliza, let alone offend. What's more, Eliza really wants to kill Mana, with her strength, just move her fingers, and borrow the name of a "dagger brotherhood" here and now, what is the purpose?
Also, who was responsible for the Dagger Brotherhood attack on the way to Garden?
With all kinds of suspicions, Chen Rui set his eyes on the VIP building guarded by several knights of light in the distance, and his mind moved, and his body suddenly became transparent. Blend in with the night. Disappear.
In Paul's room, there was a great light.
Two figures sat cross-legged in front of each other. Paul's left hand emitted a bubbling golden glow that melted into Eliza's bare back, which was covered by a terrible wound. The process was slow and cautious, and the sweat was already dripping from Paul's forehead, and Eliza's skin began to twist strangely, as if there was a snake wriggling inside, Eliza gritted her teeth, tried her best to endure the pain, and her whole body was secreting cold sweat, and the speed of the squirming became faster and faster, moving to a cut in her right wrist, and squirting yellow juice violently.
The juice fell to the ground, and those specially made hard wooden boards were corroded in an instant, and the yellow juice gradually turned red, and finally turned into blood, Paul breathed a sigh of relief, withdrew the golden light, and a soft white light appeared in his right hand, and the wound on Eliza's back gradually healed, and finally even the scar could not be seen.
Light magic really has a magic effect that water magic can't compare with in terms of healing, but healing magic is not omnipotent, and there is a time limit, continuous use will not only reduce the effect, but also destroy the body's self-healing ability, causing dark injuries, unless there is a special constitution such as the body of light.
This time Eliza was not lightly injured, although with the help of Paul, the hindrance in her body was removed, but that kind of light magic could only allow her external wounds to heal, and the internal wounds still needed a long time to heal.
"Alright...... xiexie。 Eliza's tense body softened, "Help me get dressed, I don't have the strength." ”
Paul stood up, put on a robe for her, and stepped back.
"Are people so terrible?" Eliza's voice was a little weak, "help people wipe their sweat, I really don't know how you are a man, you don't like women at all." ”
Paul took out a towel and helped her wipe the sweat beads from her face, and his eyes fell on the pair of peaks that were already quite large on the girl's chest, and he turned away slightly.
Eliza was a little dissatisfied with his ignorance, and was about to speak, but Paul had already spoken: "What is the matter with this assassin?
"Hmph!" Speaking of this, a cold light appeared in Eliza's eyes, "It's not the Stalker Guild!, although she deliberately used the attack method and Liliang attribute that she is not good at, and other things are hidden from others, but she can't hide it from me!"
Paul's expression trembled slightly, as if he had thought of something, and finally did not speak.
