Chapter 105: The Truth About Death

Pros's black knights, though also armed with bows and arrows and crossbows, were not of use in this ambush. (Starter) First, the ambush was rushed and the ambush was not arranged, and second, the threat posed by ordinary bows and arrows to silver-rank powerhouses was almost negligible.

Night fighting has never been an archer's forte, and it is a blessing not to shoot an arrow at one's own people in the dim sight. Occasionally, a few flew towards their target, only to be swept away by a whirlpool of air raised by the giant axe before they could get close. Every silver powerhouse is a monster that can defeat a hundred, an agile assassin like GLP, who can move faster than the arrow itself, and a powerful warrior like Leon, with thick skin and strong defense, even if he is shot, he will only be bitten by a mosquito.

Unless it is a mountain hunter who is known for his good shooting, it is possible to help the current situation with the advantage of the group, but Isttalon's hunter army has not yet returned from exploring the Black Forest, and the manpower that GLP can call on is quite limited, so he simply gave up.

GLP himself has always relied on short-handed weapons to fight, so he is a little dismissive of long-range weapons in his heart, and he has the impression that bows and arrows can only be used to their greatest power in real war.

But that impression was completely reversed in tonight's arrest.

The towering tower slowly fell backwards after the pillars broke, and a figure in a gray cloak suddenly appeared at the top of the tower, snatching the panicked sentry out of the lookout and rolling it down against the sloping outer wall of the tower. He himself followed, but he took the initiative to slide downward, and actually drew his bow in his hand and shot an arrow at the ground.

Leon's screams rang out in the darkness, and the arrow could be seen in the firelight as he stabbed him in the head. It only took a few seconds to slide down the outer wall of the tower, and the archer fired two more arrows in quick succession. Then he grabbed the sentry who had fallen from his side, and forced a twist in mid-air, and the two men's bodies jumped away from each other at the last moment when they were close to the ground, and rolled down the road in embarrassment.

Leon staggered out of the ruins, his massive body falling to his knees. The first arrow blinded his right eye, making him subconsciously reach out to cover it, and the strength of the other hand holding the giant axe inevitably weakened a little, and the second arrow hit his arm, making him lose the strength to raise the giant axe to resist, and the last arrow pierced his chest directly.

El rolled on the ground several times to relieve the impact of the fall, only to feel the pain in the bones all over his body. If he jumped from a twenty-meter-high tree, there were branches in the middle to serve as a buffer, and the twenty-meter-high tower would not have time for him to hesitate if it collapsed directly.

Hearing the sound of intricate footsteps in his ears, El raised his head, and saw the black knight with a ponytail standing behind him, his eyes flashing with a cold light, and the sharp thin sword pointed directly at his ass and was ready to attack, and he was so frightened for a while that he hurriedly covered his lower body and shouted: "My own people!"

The black-clothed knight with a ponytail was originally just ready to attack, but when he heard him shout like this, he couldn't help but squint his eyes and stab out with a sword. El gasped, ignoring the pain all over his body, he jumped up and grabbed the blade of the sword with one hand, and pushed the other hand against her sword-holding shoulder, causing the black knight to lose his balance and fall to the ground.

Unexpectedly, the black knight was also very agile, lost his balance, rolled on the spot, turned around and kicked El's leg socket, kicking him too.

When GLP arrived, he saw two people rolling around on the ground with their necks around and wrestling together, and the black knights who surrounded him all had expressions that could not bear to look at each other.

"What are you doing! Stand up for me!" felt the teasing gaze of his men, and Pross's face darkened completely. Under his murderous gaze, the black knight with his ponytail finally let go of his hand, climbed up with his thin sword, and gave a crooked military salute to Pross.

"Report to the sir, there's something suspicious!"

"Shut up, Palanti! " Pross said in a cold voice with a dark face, and after dealing with his disobedient men, he turned his head to look at the "suspicious elements".

"Which unit are you from? Take off your helmet!"

"What a misunderstanding, my lord. El smiled wryly and took off his helmet, thinking to himself that he had suffered an unwarranted disaster this time.

"Are you...... El?" Pros couldn't help but be stunned for a moment as he looked at the young man in front of him, he really had an impression of this person in his mind.

This young man was originally a reserve soldier who was temporarily recruited on the eve of the war, but was later selected into the reconnaissance unit because of his skills, and later escaped his life under the command of the princess of the earth, Rangalia, and returned vital information in time. The military originally planned to recruit him into the regular army to focus on training, but unexpectedly, Master Stephen took a fancy to his talent and directly snatched him away and accepted him as a disciple.

The above is all public information, and the main reason why Pros has an impression of him is that he is a survivor who escaped from the northern plague with Tiana, and has an ambiguous relationship with the magician girl. In order to heal his serious injuries, Tiana owes St. Sister Mary a favor that is difficult to estimate in terms of money.

By the time Tiana was investigated later, El had already entered Stephen's Tower and couldn't be contacted at all, otherwise he would definitely become the target of the investigation. Before the disappearance of Sister Maple Leaf, GLP was still thinking about how to get in touch with this shit lucky guy, but he didn't expect him to fall from the sky in such a way.

"It's me, my lord, you see, it's all a misunderstanding. El nodded with a smile and said. "I just felt too bored to stay in the teacher's tower, so I came out to relax, but I didn't expect to meet you on official business. ”

"Come out and take a walk, run to the top of the tower and take a walk?" Pross laughed angrily, "If you're not in a good mood, you kill someone in the street?" Do you know that this is a felon, we want to capture alive?"

"Conscience of heaven and earth, my lord, I didn't kill this person!" El looked back at the arrow stuck in Leon's head, his face was a little embarrassed, but he still couldn't help but cry out.

"By the time I shot the first arrow, he was dead!"

It sounded like boastful, and the black knights standing next to him couldn't resist the urge of contempt, but Pross understood what it meant. His face changed, and he walked quickly to Leon's corpse, crouching down to take a closer look.

Sure enough, next to the part where the arrow was inserted in the corpse's chest, there was a laceration wound with blood gushing out. Judging by the shape, Leon was pierced through the heart with a sword from behind, with precision. Thinking of this, GLP couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. At the moment when the tower fell, he still locked on to Leon's figure, but he didn't find the truth about Leon's death at all.

Prolos himself is proficient in the art of assassination, but there is no trace of the murderer left on Leon's body, and this invisible method of killing is the same as the murderous crime that happened these nights.

The reason why he only mobilized a part of his manpower tonight was that he was worried that this killer would appear again, but now that the killer was appearing and killing people in a dignified manner, he didn't have any way.

"Did you see the killer?" Prologis asked, turning back to El.

"I see it, but ......," El scratched his head helplessly, "and even if I did, what would you do with her?"

"That's my business. Pross said expressionlessly, "Palanti, take him to paint the portrait of the killer." ”

The black knight with a ponytail stepped forward, but was blocked by El reaching out, he smiled and said to Pross: "My lord, I don't think there is any need to worry about the portrait for the time being, this person is already hopeless, don't you think that the accomplices who captured him are more urgent?"

"Do you see his accomplices?" said GLP's eyes.

"I saw it, and I knew it. El touched his nose and laughed dryly, "I saw him go in the direction of the outside of the city, and it should be too late to chase him now." ”
