Chapter 396: Phantom
readx;
Immediately after, a swift figure suddenly burst out of the courtyard of the inner hall, and a howling wind appeared out of thin air, circling the five killers. This person www.biquge.info is the old man Brahma who I was still strange just now.
The five killers did not panic, and the first one muffled, and with a wrong dagger in his hand, he met Brahma's attack. The other four quickly staggered, and in an instant, they surrounded Brahma, and the dagger in their hands flashed cold, trying to clean up Brahma in a short time.
The entire union quickly stirred, and from the courtyard, swift figures rushed out, looking at their skills, even if they were not as good as Brahma, the difference was limited.
Brahma showed his might at this time, opening and closing widely, and did not show any embarrassment in the attack of the five killers, but attacked and defended, maintaining an invincible and undefeated situation. As long as they are besieged by the masters of the thieves' union, these killers are definitely dead or alive.
The five killers had apparently discovered this as well, so one of the first ones suddenly whistled in succession, and the dagger swung even faster, as if he was crazy, and launched a frantic attack on Brahma. At the same time, the other four killers took the opportunity to retreat quietly, completely ignoring their companions, turning around and disappearing into the surrounding darkness, and they actually scattered in twos and twos.
Although Brahma's strength was better than that killer, he couldn't do anything about him in his eagerness. However, he is not in a hurry, with the current situation, this killer will definitely not be able to escape. The few masters of the Thieves Guild who appeared followed, but no one intervened, and as soon as their bodies turned, they were waiting to bypass the battle circle and chase after the other four killers.
"Be careful!" Brahma suddenly shouted, his figure suddenly sprang up, and he jerked out of the battle circle.
It turned out that the killer saw that the situation was not good, and suddenly tore open a magic scroll, shaking his hand and throwing it on his head. Although Brahma found out in time, he had no way to stop it.
A series of fireballs appeared out of thin air, and the sky reflected was fiery red, which was actually a seventh-level magic scroll of meteor fire shower. Those who can be called masters in the thieves' guild are naturally people with sharp minds and experience. At the same time that the killer tore open the scroll, they had already flown away, and the meteor fire shower, as the strongest fire-type seventh-level magic, if it was caught in a hurry, even Brahma would have to shed his skin.
"Follow along. I shook my head with a wry smile and greeted Feng'er. The magic scroll is uncontrollable, and the killer threw it on his head, obviously with no intention of living. He may have done this to destroy the corpse, and moreover, to destroy his own corpse. The situation at night is really a bit weird, these five killers are very unfamiliar with their moves and coordination, not like the people of the Dark Council, I desperately want to know the details of these killers.
Feng'er nodded slightly, commanding Xiaohuo to quietly follow. The strength of the four killers is not weak, the two of them together don't care about the blocking of ordinary guards, plus the speed of the body is fast, and they are familiar with the terrain, and their whereabouts are secretive, although they were injured along the way, they actually committed suicide and escaped from the thieves' union. Of course, this is also thanks to the sacrifice of the killer, and if it weren't for his magic scroll blocking the masters of the Thieves' Guild, they would never have left alive.
If they leave the Thieves' Guild, then I'll be too careful to do it again. Seeing that they were about to leave the union, I suddenly flew down and struck one of them silently on the leg with a wisp of true qi.
The killer suddenly felt numb under his feet while running, and fell to the ground with a fierce cross. Another killer next to him hurriedly reached out to help, ready to pull him up and continue running. Helplessly, the foot he hit was like it wasn't his own, and he couldn't run at all.
The intact killer's face changed, he gritted his teeth violently, waved his right hand, and the dagger in his hand was fast and ruthless, and it slammed into the heart of the killer on the ground. The killer on the ground looked miserable, but he didn't dodge or dodge.
Naturally, I didn't allow him to kill people, so I slammed into him, holding his attack with my right hand, and connecting the dots with my left hand, instantly sealing the activity ability of the killer on the ground. Looking at their actions, you can see that these people are real killers, not only cruel to their enemies, but also to themselves.
The intact killer's expression changed drastically, and he slammed at me like a madman, but I lightly defused it. He also knew the opportunity, and after realizing that he was not an opponent at all, he didn't love fighting, threw the dagger at the killer on the ground, turned around and ran. I smiled slightly, easily parryed the dagger, and picked up the killer on the ground and floated up, still back in the air.
The three killers met again, but without saying a word, they supported each other and ran in the direction of the castle tower. At this time, the entire thieves' union was already in chaos, and people kept coming out and searching everywhere. At this time, it showed the wonder of magic, and with the help of magic detection, the smell of blood on the four killers could not escape the perception of the magicians of the Thieves' Guild, and basically everyone chased after the killers.
However, these killers were obviously not surprised by this situation, and they were also prepared, and when they arrived near the tower, with a few long ropes that had been prepared for a long time, they quickly left the city and swam out of the moat. By the time the thieves' guild chased them out, they were already far away.
It's just that these killers definitely didn't expect that Feng'er and I would follow them all the way. I just wanted to catch someone and ask, but since they were absconding all the way, it gave me a better idea. If you follow them all the time, it's easier to know who sent them to the thieves' guild to kill people.
The three killers remained silent along the way, just silently hurrying away. Dozens of miles away from the city of Manro, they turned into a nearby mountain range, and finally entered a hidden cave.
"Tsk, it's secretive enough. "Leaving Feng'er to take care of the captives, I followed in without any scruples.
The cave is long and winding, and there are many forks in the road. I fumbled around for a while before I found the right direction with a little trace of the three of them. It's just that I never imagined that at the end of the cave, there was actually a hidden valley. A lonely house stood in the middle of the valley.
At this time, three killers were waiting at the door of the house, as if reporting something. However, the spirit told me that there was no one in the house.
“...... In this way, the matter has been done, but the eldest and third are trapped in it. "I'm just catching up with their reports.
"Are you dead?" said a very cold voice from inside the house, and when he spoke of his men, there was no trace of emotion at all.
"The eldest should be dead, but the third ......," one of the killers said hesitantly.
"What? were caught?" said the owner of the voice calmly, as he didn't seem surprised.
"Yes!" the killer said calmly: "When I left, a swordsman suddenly appeared, and he restrained the third child in a few moments." I want to help the third child get free, but I don't have a chance. ”
"Oh?" The voice that came was very flat, and said, "Captain Long, since you're here, why don't you come out and see it!"
"So Your Excellency knows me!" I said with a smile, running out of my hiding position, "Then things couldn't be better." ”
"The famous Bird of Paradise Knight, a super strong man who easily defeated the thief god Brahma, if my eyes don't light up a little, wouldn't I have to follow in the footsteps of the Mandate of Heaven and the ghost fox?"
"Is that really the case?" I said with a haha, "Your Excellency also underestimates yourself too much, just your ability to change voices, I'm afraid that the Mandate of Heaven may not be qualified to compare with you." ”
"Too much curiosity is not a good thing. After a slight pause, the sound sounded again, but it seemed to resound throughout the valley, and it was impossible to distinguish the direction from which the voice came. "Everyone will have their own secrets, so it's better not to know too much. ”
I smiled slightly, and sure enough, the spirit was not mistaken, this person was not in the house at all. If I'm not mistaken, there is probably an underground base like the Destiny Killers down there, and people should be hiding underneath. "Unfortunately, curiosity can kill cats. There's nothing wrong with me, it's just that I'm a little more curious. ”
"Hmph!" After a moment of silence, a muffled snort came, and the man said coldly, "Okay! For the sake of finding here, I can answer you three questions." However, as a condition, you must return my manpower. ”
"Thank you very much. I smiled and said, "But it doesn't have to be three, I just need to know one problem." Who asked you to go to the Thieves' Guild to kill people?"
"It's from the mercenary union, but I don't know if it's the idea of the new president. After a long pause, the man replied.
"Thank you. I looked straight and said solemnly. Killers have their own rules, and revealing the identity of an employer is obviously a violation of professional ethics. He was able to tell me this, not only because I might have touched his important stronghold, but also because he showed me sincerity.
"Your man is at the entrance of the cave, and you can send someone to pick it up when the time comes. I turned and walked away.
"Thank you, Captain Dragon, the phantom is gone!" The man's voice changed again, but this time it was already a woman's voice, and it came clearly from behind him.
I paused slightly, and secretly said that I was really lucky, how long has it been, and I have met the killer organization that ranks fifth in the Killer Guild again. It seems that with a little more time, you will probably be able to recognize the top ten famous killer groups in the killer association. I heard that the Phantom is the most mysterious and unpredictable, and it seems that it is well deserved.
