Chapter 116: A Little Test of Skill (2)

South Ring Road, inside Sid Jeff's four-story single-family building.

Grelynt followed the usual West German habit and pretended to check the day's reports of some business under the guidance of a manservant. He then put down the report and the hot milk in his left hand and pretended to get up to take a hot bath......

Considering that the other party should not be able to change his appearance and posture, he was quite relieved about the servants in West Germany, and was only a little wary. His focus was on the blind spots of the room and the spaces where the "West Germans" might be alone for a while, such as the bathroom, the bathroom, for example.

……

Inside the soft cloth curtain, Glerint faced the hot water that had been put away, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

At that moment, he heard footsteps approaching outside.

"Lighter, a woman, or ...... 'assassin'."

He held his breath silently, waiting for the other to speak.

Da ......

After a soft sound, the visitor stood at the door of the curtain and said softly:

"Sir, I'm here to serve you in the bath."

It's a woman...... For a moment, Gleilynt could not determine whether the comer was a servant or an enemy. According to common sense, after informing West Germany's personal valet in advance, he should have found an excuse to break up the other servants to avoid Gleilynt's accidental injury.

But he also has the potential to be "business as usual"...... Or maybe he thinks Glelint likes such a service too.

In the midst of his thoughts, Gleilint imitated the voice of West Germany and said in a deep voice:

"I don't need it today, I'm a little uncomfortable."

He acted as if he was really not in the mood, and then, without waiting for the comer to turn away or rush in to assassinate him, he continued:

"By the way, I forgot to take off my pocket watch in advance, you can help me take it and put it away, in case it is flooded."

As he spoke, he half-lifted the soft cloth curtain without revealing the faces of either side, and then pretended to be casual and handed out the West German gold-shelled pocket watch.

"Uh...... Yes, sir. ”

After a little stunned, the woman instinctively took what he handed over.

"Bribery" succeeded!

Whether she's an enemy or not, Glerint "bribes" her once in advance, intending to unleash her extraordinary abilities again if needed - as long as the interval is not too long, the "bribe" is effective!

……

At this moment, as the woman took the pocket watch, she pulled out a tooth-shaped blade from the balloon sleeve of her left arm with her backhand, and cut straight into Glerint's arm that was about to be withdrawn.

"Heh......"

As early as she withdrew her pocket watch and reached her left arm with her right hand, Gleilynt realized that something was wrong. He immediately stepped back, his right hand raised slightly, and a white light shot out of his eyes.

"Psychic Piercing!"

Subsequently, he silently hooked up the "bribe" just now and launched the "weakening" of the four abilities!

This is the most conventional combat ability.

Separated by a layer of cloth curtains, this "spiritual puncture" failed to hit the opponent's pupil directly, and the effect was not very good. The woman only suddenly had a sharp pain in her head, but she had not completely lost the ability to resist, and she actually handed the short blade forward with the instinct that still had spare strength.

Unfortunately, due to Glerint's retreat, her blow was completely missed.

With a missed blow, the woman instinctively took a step back, trying to avoid the fatal blow that might have pierced the curtain. She hadn't woken up from the severe headache yet, and the "mental puncture" of the sixth level of the sequence was not so easy to fight.

Instead of following the attack, Glerint saw her step back and chose to pull back the curtain, opening the eyes of both sides.

He wasn't interested in killing the opponent directly.

This is a female face without peculiar temptation, and the face distorted by pain can be vaguely seen to be a little delicate and soft.

Just as he was about to attack again, the woman who had been delayed for a few seconds had already come to her senses. Immediately, without thinking, she instinctively chose to turn around and run away.

If you miss a hit, you will be away immediately!

This was the basic cultivation of an Assassin.

Glalint was certainly no match for the "Assassin" approach, and when he saw her turn and run away, he smiled, raised his hand and removed the top hat that West Germany was accustomed to wearing, and threw it out.

With a slight sound of breaking wind, the top hat spun and flew towards the female assassin at a not-so-fast speed, but she easily dodged it, as if Glerint's action didn't make any sense.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the female assassin broke out of the room and was about to flee!

Gleilynt was not in a hurry to chase it out, he had just thrown his top hat and chose "bribe-association". As long as the time is not too long and the other party has not escaped too far, he can use this to lock the other party's position.

"I don't want to fight you for speed......"

Silently muttering to himself, he walked out briskly with a small stride, intending to enjoy the comical drama of the "Assassin" encountering another "Assassin".

……

In the hall, the female assassin swept through the hall at great speed, ignoring the consternation of the servants, while Gleilynt followed him downstairs unhurriedly.

This assassin is only the highest Sequence Seven, and after being greatly weakened by herself, in the case of the enemy's darkness, Gleilint does not believe that she can get any advantage in Shirley's hands, not to mention that Shirley still has the "witch's makeup mirror" in her hand.

……

In the backlit shadow on the outside of the building, Shirley was lying in ambush on a path out of the courtyard. Suddenly, she saw a figure running out, and she could vaguely see the maid's outfit.

She held her breath even more, holding the dagger in her hand tightly, and there were slight sweat stains in her palm, but they were quickly sucked dry by the strips of cloth.

Ten Steps...... Five-step ...... Three-step ......

Seeing that the enemy was within ten feet, she no longer hesitated, and made the action that she had rehearsed countless times in her mind: stab the enemy in the heart!

The female assassin was startled by the sudden attack, instinctively moving sideways to dodge, while not forgetting to use her short blade to slash at Shirley with her backhand, trying to "attack instead of defending", forcing the enemy to dodge or block.

It's a pity that this long-planned "fatal blow" was originally aimed at killing her, and it was even so fast that she didn't have time to use a stand-in! And how can it be so easy to dodge?

"It's okay, after all, he dodged a little, and he could only stab me in the ribs......"

"I hurt him too......"

These two thoughts flashed quickly, and when she was about to fight back in spite of her injuries, she was shocked and desperate to find that the other party's dagger was like the sharpest magical object, easily piercing her paper-like ribs!

This is because Gleilynt "weakened" her defenses in advance.

She didn't have time to check the damage inflicted on the other party, and she didn't feel the sharp pain, only a powerful impact knocked her back a small step. Then, a numbness quickly swept through her body......

In just one round, the "witch" died at the hands of the "assassins"!

At the same time, Shirley was not comfortable, and in the flash just now, knowing that Glerint was prepared, she decisively chose to "exchange injuries for lives", and only then did she kill the other party with one blow. However, the price was that a three-inch-long cut was made on her right shoulder, but no blood flowed out, but the wound was slightly corroded, with a slight fishy smell, and at the same time, a more severe degree of paralysis and faintness transmitted to the brain.

Fortunately, the opponent's attack was also "weakened" and did not cause much damage to her.

……

When Glerint came out, he saw the successful assassination of Shirley. So he nodded his head very slightly, and expressed his approval of Shirley's decisiveness.

Strictly speaking, it was the first time she had carried out an "assassination", and it can be said that it is very good to be able to do this.

Prepared, he walked quickly to Shirley, watched her with a slightly painful expression, released a "cure for evil disease" spell, and at the same time used the "Alien Pocket Watch" to weaken and transfer the wound on her right arm, turning it into a small wound the length of a finger on her right arm.

"Treating malignant diseases" can't eradicate toxins, but it is still possible to deal with weakened toxins so that Shirley is not in any danger.

Instead of directly disposing of the corpse of the female assassin with the "seed of delusion", Glerint glanced at the valet who was sneaking around, and ordered:

"Call your employer and his bodyguards over and say that the problem has been solved."

……

"Well, can you 'channel' her?"

The Extraordinary bodyguard hired by West Germany was a woman in her thirties, and she was fairly good-looking.

Seeing her coming with Sid, Glerint didn't talk nonsense, and directly asked her if she could psychic questions about the Assassin. As a spiritually powerful "bribe-taker", Glerint is not unable to channel himself, but the key is that he has really not used this skill, and he is quite rusty.

It's better to say that the "psychic" failed, but it would be hilarious to dissipate the female assassin's spirit......

"Yes, what question would you like to ask?"

She didn't explain her sequence, but rather affirmed that she was psychic.

Glerint glanced at her, ignoring the slight vigilance she had against herself as a wild extraordinary, and spoke quickly, in order of importance:

"The purpose of the assassination of West Germany and their strongholds, as well as the potion recipe for the 'Assassin' route."

After a slight pause, he added:

"If you still have time, ask them about their usual handling of failed tasks."
