Chapter 13: Two Persons
The mansion was quiet again. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The sun shone brightly on the pool in the garden, the white marble was carved into the shape of the eyes by the sunlight, and the water lifted by magic erupted from the hollowed-out eyeballs, drawing a wisp of color in the air, and then falling back into the surrounding pool.
Standing at the edge of the pool with his hands behind his back, Jack looked at the water glittering in the breeze, contemplating his previous discovery.
Yes, that Eno Byron was playing dead, but his death was sudden.
Why? Because, Jack had people sprinkle super spicy chili powder on the toilet paper in the toilet, which is 100% of the chili powder that can make chrysanthemum flowers ache and scream. As can be seen from the scene of the toilet, Ino did wipe his butt with that piece of toilet paper, after which, he threw the book to the ground and stood up with his ass tensed. But before he could scream, he saw something through the window of the toilet, it could be an assassin or a powerful mage, but anyway, when Ino saw the other party, he was probably also discovered by the other party.
That's why Ino used magic to play dead, because if he didn't, he would most likely be killed by the person he found out.
So, who was the man who infiltrated the manor? and what was his purpose? Was it to kill Jack, or was it to attack his relatives? In any case, since the other party bypassed the guards of the manor and chose to sneak in, it means that the other party will not choose to attack during the day......
The sense of crisis is like a cold thorn in the back.
Something was wrong! Something he ignored!
Jack looked at his reflection in the pool, his mind was spinning rapidly, in just five seconds, Jack was already sweating profusely, he already had a hunch, but that vague intuition had no other effect than to bring him stress and anxiety.
Think, think, think, think
First question: Why didn't Ino wake up when Jack and the others arrived, after suddenly feigning death?
Second question: Why did Eno hold back the screams that were enough to induce Jack to do so?
Question 3: When Jack said what Ino saw, Ino was pale and his eyes were wandering, what direction did he see?
Question 4: As a maid from a poor family, why are Lilith's hands so smooth?
Jack's eyes froze, and he came to the most likely result.
It turned out to be like ......
Before Jack could finish his complacency, a chill spread from his back to his whole body, and before he even had time to think, he reflexively plunged into the pool.
Then, naturally, there was no time to hesitate, and he endured the burning pain in his back and rolled vigorously to the side in the pool. The forcibly opened eyes were soaked in water, and he vaguely looked at the figure standing by the pool. Tifa's recent training has greatly improved his strength and flexibility, and Jack has just raised his head a little with his hands back, only to be punched directly into the bridge of his nose by a fist and knocked back into the pool.
Thanks to the buoyancy, the back of Jack's head didn't hit very hard, but it also created a brief stiffness that gave the attacker a chance to attack again.
A dagger stabbed straight into Jack's throat.
【f】
A syllable spat out in the water, and Jack's most skillful [Transparent Ring of Fire] instantly formed, and Jack hoped that this spell would buy him a little time.
But the assassin didn't hesitate, and the magic from the god of the underworld [Shadow Cloak (Four Rings)] instantly formed a shadow on his body, seamlessly helping him pass through the transparent ring of fire, and at this time, the dagger was less than half a meter away from Jack. Such a distance was almost a moment for an Assassin who was known for his speed.
If Jack didn't move, he would die, so he moved, and the transparent ring of fire at his feet exploded instantly, accelerating his left foot to the point of flying upwards. It happened to hit the elbow of the Assassin's right hand holding the knife. Since both Jack and the Assassin themselves are crispy professions, this time it has caused great damage to both of them.
Jack's left foot was almost ruined, and the assassin's hand was almost broken, so the attack was of course a futile success.
Asking the brain to help suppress the pain, Jack used his newly learned [Sensitive Prophecy (3rd Ring)] and [Body Enhancement (2nd Ring)] while holding his hands and stood up in the pool.
At the same time, the Assassin shifted the dagger to his other hand, stepped into the pool, and struck Jack again.
But the Assassin's hand was barely halfway forward before she paused, and a strangely shaped spear was held against her throat.
"Huh?"
The girl's exclamation and aroma blew in front of Jack in the wind, and he took a deep breath and smiled with a triumphant smile. In order to restrain this moment, he had just used a [World] shot, which directly consumed all the magic power in his body.
"Isn't it strange? You think you're already fast, why can a magician still be in front of you? Tsk, it's really weird, I think it's weird, but even if it's weird, you'd better not move, this gun can penetrate the [Steel Barrier (Five Rings)] of the Protection School, I don't think you can defend it, so answer me now, who are you? Who sent you to kill me?"
The female assassin, who was covered in black tights and had a bumpy figure, only showed her eyes, and she snorted and did not speak.
"Huo oh~ Don't answer, you are so stubborn in the face of death, I really admire you, or are you expecting something? Looking forward to ......" A pistol appeared in Jack's left hand, and he lifted it back and put it on his shoulder.
"Is anyone coming to your rescue?"
"Don't move!"
Jack's voice and the new female voice fell at the same time.
Where Jack's pistol was pointed, another female assassin dressed in black appeared, standing behind Jack, holding a knife in her right hand against Jack's neck.
"Damn, how do you know?" the female assassin standing behind Jack scolded in a low voice, but the knife in her hand did not dare to act rashly.
Jack listened to the voice of the woman behind him and smiled even more proudly.
"How do I know? I'm not stupid, Lilith, you two are in the same group, aren't you? What's the name of this young lady in front of me?"
"What's your business?" replied the female assassin in front of Jack in a very bad manner.
"Tsk tsk, why are you still so stubborn under the threat of death?" Jack looked calm, as if he didn't have a knife around his neck at all.
"Your life is also under my sword, what are you proud of?" Lilith snapped behind Jack, "let her go!"
"Who's going to let you go? I'm sorry, I can't do it, I won't let anyone go now, as for this knife, you can try it and see if you can cut me!" Jack bluffed, not at all, he continued to attack the psychological defense of the two assassins in a hurry, "Let me reconstruct the incident." Unknown Assassin, you followed Lilith and Ino into the manor, right? Also, Lilith, you gave Eno the bad idea of playing dead, right? You want to kill me directly with the help of the Byron family. Halfway through, after Ino goes to the toilet, you, the nameless assassin, learn that there is chili powder in the toilet, and you immediately feel that you can't make Ino scream, because then he may forget to play dead in pain, or pretend to be too unnatural, so you sneak into the toilet, tell Ino to shut up, and let him die if he threatens him not to play dead. In the end, because your plan was revealed, you had to assassinate me with your own hands, isn't that the whole thing? Well, now the problem arises. ”
"What kind of grudge do we have?"
