Chapter 16 Ambush
The night when there is no one is there has always been a favorite of killers.
Every time Nicole appeared in front of Rog around midnight, this time was no exception.
Nicole came twice before, once she was scared, and the second time she was secretly kissed by Andronie. This is a big blow to Nicole, a killer who is full of ambition and plans to make a name for herself. So the third time, Nicole came prepared, and she even spared no expense and used expensive invisible powder.
Unlike usual, Rogge's study, though lit, was empty.
Nicole cautiously climbed through the window, then stood still by the window, closed her eyes, and did not move. There are many ways to trick the eyes, so as a professional killer, she relies on hearing and the sensation of her skin to determine if there is someone in the room.
Except for the occasional wind movement outside the window, there was no sound. The room was also cold, and there was no popularity at all.
It seems that there is no one left.
Nicole breathed a sigh of relief and slowly opened her eyes. The pupils dilated suddenly in an instant, and the body became stiff.
Rogge didn't know when he sat at the table, reading intently!
Seeing that Rogge didn't seem to notice her presence, Nicole slowly closed her eyes again, and in her senses, the room was indeed empty. When she opened her eyes again, Rogge was still sitting there reading. It's just that not only did he not make a sound at all when he turned the pages, but he didn't even have the sound of breathing, heartbeat, or even blood flowing. Rogge sat there, like a phantom.
Nicole was so frightened that her heart almost stopped.
"Luckily, I'm careful enough to use invisible powder, and it looks like he hasn't noticed me yet!" Nicole comforted herself.
At this moment, Rogge put down the book in his hand, looked at Nicole and said, "How long are you going to stand?"
Nicole's mood was extremely depressed. Stealth is one of the killer's most important skills, but Nicole can't figure out why her own skills are so useless in front of them.
She remembered what was going on, calmed down a little, and came to Rogge: "Lord Rogge, the Night Dancer has found a solution for you, and the price is ...... One million gold coins. Here's our workaround, if you agree, please sign the note. With that, Nicole handed Rogge a piece of paper.
Rogzai carefully looked at the solution provided by the Night Dancer, and thought for a long time before saying, "This method is indeed feasible. But it's a little too difficult, isn't there any other way?"
Nicole looked embarrassed and said, "Yes, yes, but I was told that another solution would require the use of ninth-level magic." This legendary magic costs at least six million gold coins, which is not something you can afford. In fact, a million gold coins is already hard for you to afford. ”
"What about the payment method?" Rogge asked, looking at the bill of arrears.
"Pay half upfront and pay the other half when you're successful. You can also use a variety of rare items as a countervail. We Night Dancers have always been very fair when it comes to valuations. ”
Rogge smiled dumbly, it seemed that in terms of business, the Night Dancer was about the same as the previous Hammer of the God of War! Of course, the Hammer of the God of War was far inferior to the Night Dancer in terms of business scale and product grade.
Rogge quickly signed the bill and asked, "When will I get the things?"
"The above has been explained, and the goods will be delivered to you by the evening at the latest. With a hurried finish, Nicole turned around and wanted to leave.
Although she was ecstatic to complete a huge business in her debut, Nicole still didn't want to stay with Rogge for a moment. Somehow, she was very afraid to see that extremely seductive swordsman. Just thinking of the swordsman gave Nicole a very bad premonition.
"Wait!" Rogge stopped Nicole, "Aren't you afraid that I'll take something and pay the bill?"
Nicole looked at Rogge strangely and said, "Even I know that there's nothing worse than owing a whole bunch of killers, are you kidding?"
"Hehe, this ...... Just kidding, of course!" Rogge snorted and covered it up.
Two days later, late at night, Nicole arrived as promised.
She took out a delicate little box from her bosom and carefully placed it in front of Rogge.
Rogge opened the box, and powerful magic fluctuations immediately rushed to his face, and a delicate magic scroll was lying there quietly. Rogge gently grasped the magic scroll and closed his eyes, carefully feeling the powerful magic fluctuations contained within.
After a long time, Rogge opened his eyes and smiled, "That's it." ”
Nicole cheered and jumped for joy. Even in Night Dancer, this is a very big business, so how can Nicole be upset?
However, she didn't have to be happy for long, and with a soft snap, someone slapped her ass hard. Then a pleasant voice sounded in her ears: "Little Nicole, why are you so happy?"
Nicole didn't say a word, and immediately fled, not even daring to look back.
Androni looked at Nicole's back with a smile. She likes this little killer who has just debuted more and more.
Rog looked at Androni, and the five fingers of his right hand stretched out sharp nails again, and stabbed her shoulder. Androni didn't dodge, and with a snort, Rog tore a few holes in her coat with one claw, revealing a dark piece of leather armor inside. Rogge's grip was so hard that Androni shook it, but the leather armor was still intact.
"It seems that the black dragon leather armor is stronger than we expected!" Rogge exclaimed.
"That's light, good defense, very high magic resistance, and can also resist mental magic, no wonder killers like to wear black dragon leather armor. "Androni also likes this leather armor very much. The Black Dragon Leather Armor just makes up for a few of the most common disadvantages of a swordsman, so it's no wonder she likes it. It's just that although the black dragon leather armor is good, the raw materials are extremely difficult to obtain. If you want to kill an adult black dragon, how easy is it? After the black dragon is scaled, the place where the whole body can be made into leather armor is actually not very big, and a black dragon can only make four or five pieces of leather armor.
Rog knew very well the origin of the black dragon leather armor on Androni's body.
The result of several battles between the Black Dragon and the Silver Dragon in Moonlight Dragon City was that both sides were defeated, and even Nicholas was not lightly injured. With Nicholas defending in time, the Black Dragon Clan was unable to capture Moonlight Dragon City, so they had to retreat to the Hellfire Basin. And the Reaper class, who had the intention of picking up cheap, had already been ambushed halfway.
The luck of the Reaper class was really good enough, and they successfully seduced a black dragon who was seriously injured and left behind. This time, the class was well prepared, not only temporarily borrowed the dragon slaying blade from Xiusi, but also smeared the dragon poison newly researched by Floya on the dragon slaying blade. The poison of the dragon poison is so fierce that even the silver dragon that is almost immune to poison can't afford it, let alone the black dragon whose poison resistance is not as good as the green dragon. Of course, even if it was a seriously injured black dragon, Ben was not willing to face it alone. Therefore, in the long and narrow valley of ambush, there were three other bow and arrow masters, each with two magic arrows that had a special killing effect on the black dragon. Ban also made a lot of money, and each of the six magic arrows was worth 10,000 gold. What's even worse is to ask Floya for dragon poison, and owe the little goblin a great favor. No one can tell how much this favor is worth.
As for how Xius got a piece of fresh black dragon skin from Ben, it was not for Rogge to know.
Androni looked at the box on the table, and she also felt the extremely strong magic fluctuations inside.
As soon as this box was opened, strong magical fluctuations filled the entire City Lord's Mansion. Although ordinary people are ignorant of this, this cannot be concealed from Xius's keen sense of smell.
The door opened, and Hughes entered. As soon as he entered, his eyes were fixed on the box on the table.
"Lord Divine Envoy, you really have great powers, and you can even get this kind of thing!"
Rogge said, "Elder Xius, you have come just in time. Now that the most crucial thing has been obtained, the next thing is how to attract Nicholas. ”
Xius closed his eyes and stroked the magic scroll, and after a while he opened his eyes and said, "Lord Divine Envoy, this matter is a bit difficult. After this spell is cast, the caster must hit Nicholas for it to take effect. Do you have any good ideas?"
Rogge said, "It's easy to do, I'll just apply this magic to you." If the three of you can't even hit Nicholas, then what are we going to talk about fighting him?"
Xiusi was stunned for a moment and asked, "The Divine Envoy is indeed a genius of magic, can this magic be cast on other people? It seems that my old man is really old, and he doesn't even know this." ”
Rogge smiled and said, "Of course not! But I figured out a way to get a chance to hit Nicholas a little bit, and we could try it. If it becomes natural, it is the best, and it doesn't matter if it doesn't. Instead of waiting for death, it is better to seek death!"
Hughes looked at Rog with a very strange expression.
Although Rogge is infinitely powerful and has thick skin, he is still a magician after all, and that crude martial arts is really not in the stream. In the battle with Nicholas, even Andronie may not have a chance to hit the silver dragon, and Rogge actually said that there is a way to hit Nicholas?
Theseus suddenly came to his senses and smiled, "It seems that the Lord has finally decided to become a lich. Don't worry, since you have the heart to die, then we have a chance. The moment he kills you, even if we can't kill Nicholas, we can always chop off one of his legs. Such a silver miracle has lost its strength, and sooner or later it will die at our hands. Be your lich in peace, and your revenge will be avenged. Moreover, after you become a lich, you can be said to be alive in another way, and you can't say that you are dead. ”
Rogge couldn't help but laugh and interrupted Theseus: "Old thing, you wish I died, don't you?" Hmph, this account will be settled with you later, now you come to help me see, are there any flaws in this method?"
At that moment, Rogge and Xius kept discussing, and in the blink of an eye, they discussed until the early hours of the morning. Xius finally said: "There is something feasible in this method, but although the magic control of your Lord is far beyond the level of ordinary great magicians, the implementation of this plan is still slightly insufficient. It's a bit more risky. ”
"This one, I bet. Rogge said calmly.
Theseus nodded, not insisting. He added: "Then the next thing is relatively simple, that is, how to attract Nicholas. Judging from the tracking magic, he has never gone out of the range of 500 kilometers, and should still be lurking in the shadows, waiting for the opportunity to make a move. ”
The two thought it would be a simple matter to lure out Nicholas, but it didn't go well at first.
The best way to lure the dragon out of the cave is to start with a weak start. So Rogge deliberately let the Reaper class leave the City Lord's Mansion and live a little farther away. At the speed of the Reaper class, this distance is just around the corner. But for Nicholas, it was enough to have a chance to strike a blow.
Rogge now has no silver dragon breastplate on his body, and the dragon slayer spear coated with dragon poison is also in his hand. According to Hughes, a single blow from Nicholas had a maximum of a sixty percent chance of piercing the silver dragon's breastplate. Of course, even if he couldn't penetrate the Silver Dragon Armor, the violent concussion was enough to seriously injure Rogge. At that time, whether Rog, who was seriously injured, could still activate this magic scroll, would have to test the true kung fu of magic control.
But Nicholas's patience was unexpected, and Rogge and the others waited tightly for two days, but Nicholas was still nowhere to be found.
It stands to reason that the strongest Reaper squad around him is a certain distance away from him, how could Nicholas not seize the opportunity? Could it be that it has mastered the art of assassination and is ready to wait for everyone to relax their defenses before killing them with one blow? Rog asked Theseus.
Hughes, on the other hand, believed that with the conceit and arrogance of the Silver Miracle, he would never have done such a shameful thing as assassination. The old fox said again that Nicholas hated Rogge to the core, and since he had said that he would slowly torture him to death, he would definitely not kill Rogge easily.
Rogge was puzzled, it stands to reason that the Grim Reaper class is not around, there is no reason for Nicholas not to grasp this kind of great opportunity? He suddenly looked at Hughes with a strange expression, and asked: "Old thing, Nicholas has never appeared, the person who scruples will not be you, right?"
"The divine envoy is really wise, and it is my old man who is afraid of him!" Hughes said triumphantly.
Rogge stared at Xiusi for another long time, and the result was still the same as before, sixteenth-level killers, not many at the first level, and many at the first level.
Although Rogge didn't understand why the Silver Miracle was afraid of a sixteenth-level killer, he still made a decision and said, "Okay, Elder Xius, you will be able to exchange with the Death Class tomorrow!"
But the result of the exchange between Hughes and the Reaper class is the same, Nicholas is still hiding in the shadows, saying nothing and not coming out. Embarrass Theseus.
Just when everyone was a little discouraged, there was suddenly a servant missing from the city lord's mansion. Originally, the disappearance of a servant was not a big deal, but the body of this servant, no, it should be said to be a relic, was found in the blink of an eye.
All that remained of this servant was a charred black shadow. And this black figure is imprinted on the gate of the City Lord's Mansion in a dignified manner.
Rog, Theseus, and the Reaper class stood in front of the gate, their faces very ugly. They all saw that this servant had been directly turned into ashes by the Silver Dragon Dragon Flame. And leaving this shadow on the gate, it is clear that Nicholas is demonstrating and putting psychological pressure on Rogge. Nicholas is really wise, he didn't understand the world when he first came out of Dragon City, and now in a short period of time, he has learned to put psychological pressure on everyone.
The strong have a minimum of dignity, and they generally disdain to attack a servant. By doing so, Nicholas clearly shows that he has begun to do whatever it takes to get revenge.
Rogge had also prepared a radical move, ready to lure him out by striking at Nicholas' dignity. But since Nicholas can kill even a servant who doesn't know any martial arts, this trick seems to be useless.
Hughes and Rogge frowned, sitting in their rooms, helpless at the predicament before them.
Rogge slammed the table and scolded, "This silver miracle is so fucking enduring!"
Xius just sighed and said, "He has done whatever it takes to get revenge." This style of doing things is very similar to that of the gods. ”
Rogge said angrily: "Where is it like? Although Lao Tzu has done a lot of bad things, there are always some things that are not sold.......
Speaking of this, Rogge suddenly remembered something, was silent for a moment, and then said gloomily: "Yes, even people like me have an intolerable bottom line, I don't believe that Nicholas can endure anything! Silver Dragon Egg...... Forget it, this thing is not easy to come by, and it cannot be used lightly. Elder Xius, do you still have any silver dragon horns in your hands?"
Xius was stunned for a moment and said, "All the silver dragon horns are used on your dragon slaying spear." Where do I have a surplus?"
Rogge frowned and said, "No, it's a little tricky. Can the things that have been processed by the dust of history be restored?"
Xius already understood what Rogge meant, and sighed: "If the things that have been processed by the dust of history can be restored, then my old man is really a god." ”
At this moment, the huge head of the bone dragon poked out of the sky. It was chattering with two glittering silver dragon horns in its mouth, which were the same two silver dragon horns that Chrisfelena used to call for help, but were cut off by Fengyue.
Gregory loosened his mouth, and the two silver dragons were cornered on the table.
The bone dragon looked at the two silver dragon horns that emitted a charming light with great reluctance, sighed desolately, and went back to the other world in a wistful manner.
Rogge played with two one-and-a-half-foot-long silver dragon horns covered with fine silver threads, and said with a smile: "Elder Xius, everyone has been tired enough these days. We should also relax, and how about a barbecue?"
Hughes smiled and said, "It's good, I'm afraid that the dragon will be furious when the time comes." You know, people who go crazy are not easy to deal with!"
"Are you testing me again? I just know that you guys are the scariest when you're in a calm mood. ”
At nightfall, a roaring bonfire was lit in the back garden of the Lord's Mansion, and a calf was slaughtered, washed, and spiced, and roasted on the fire. Numerous servants and maids shuttled back and forth, placing plates of food and bottles of wine on the table.
It was completely dark.
At this moment, the city lord's mansion was already very lively, and the calf that had been grilled for more than two hours was already ready to eat, just waiting for Rogge to announce the start of the banquet.
At Rogge's invitation, almost all the big and small officials and wealthy merchants in Bora City arrived. Although spring nights in the north are still very cold, an open-air barbecue is not a good idea. But Rogge has a respected status, has a heavy army, and has the power to kill and kill these people, so whether he wants to or not, no one who receives the invitation will not dare to do so.
The guests, though all dressed very thickly, shivered in the cold wind. These people who didn't know any martial arts and magic didn't notice that their steps had been a little heavier since they stepped into the City Lord's Mansion. They had their own hearts and minds about this strange feast.
Some people think that Rogge wants to use this to establish his authority, some think that Rogge is a vassal and elegant, and some people think that Rogge wants to set up a name and accept bribes, so as to prepare a gift that is inconspicuous on the surface but is actually very valuable.
In the distance, a pair of golden eyes were watching the lively bonfire dinner in the City Lord's Mansion from afar. In these eyes, the entire City Lord's Mansion was shrouded in a layer of mist with a faint blood color at this moment.
Nicholas sneered, "Debilitating Enchantment? Is this simple trap trying to fool me too?" But you have to hide from my eyes, that's a fantasy. ”
The color in his pupils kept changing, and each time it changed, it meant that Nicholas would only receive certain magic fluctuations at the moment.
After a while, in Nicholas's eyes, an extremely faint and eerie green light suddenly rose from the City Lord's Mansion in the distance, which was originally unusual. These green rays originated from three green balls of light floating above the City Lord's Mansion. Three balls of light slowly flew around each other along a complex trajectory.
"Dragon Spell Circle!?" Nicholas' eyes narrowed.
Not to mention the treasures collected by the dragon, the body of the dragon alone is a treasure trove that can be moved. Since ancient times, countless Terran adventurers have tried to slay dragons one after another, so that they can get rich overnight. Although the vast majority of them became food for dragons, only a handful of stories of successful people have been handed down. These stories inspire new adventurers to embark on a journey to slay dragons.
For thousands of years, greed has led to the development of countless equipment and magic to target dragons' weaknesses. Hughes's Dragon Slayer is one of the most famous of them, which is why Bangan, the god of death, will take great risks to make the silver dragon Nicholas an enemy. The dragon spell is a very powerful magic array, within the scope of the magic array, all dragons will be strongly cursed, and all abilities will be weakened to a certain extent. The degree of debilitation depends on the magic resistance of different dragons.
Looks like this is their real killer tonight. Nicholas thought coldly, a touch of pride flashing across his face.
These lowly creatures don't yet know that he's completely immune to the Dragon Spell!
But Nicholas was still not ready to make a move. These days, Nicholas has been calmly observing the performance of this lowly microbe. When Hughes left Rogge, he was really moved, but he vowed to torture Rogge well, and killing him like this would be too cheap for him. What's more, he has always had scruples about Hughes, and he has to observe to see if Hughes can detect his whereabouts. Judging by the situation these days, they know that they are ambushed nearby, but they do not know their exact whereabouts.
It costs a lot of money to set up a dragon spell circle. Nicholas wanted to see how many times they could arrange the dragon spell circle.
The dragon spell circle is specifically aimed at dragons, so it is natural to find a way to hide from the dragon's perception. In fact, if Nicholas remained in the Silver Dragon form, he would not have been able to detect the existence of the Dragon Curse. But after changing into an elf, it's completely different. Natural night eyes and keen perception are two of the elves' most famous natural abilities. Driven by Nicholas's super strength, these two abilities were greatly enhanced, and he could observe the existence of all magic fluctuations, thus discovering the dragon spell circle.
Even if you are as arrogant as Nicholas, you have to admit that these two abilities of elves are still very useful.
At least, Rogge wanted to slip away under his nose, which was impossible. You can't hide any tricks you want to play.
"Choosing an elf as a transformation form doesn't seem too wasteful. Nicholas sometimes thinks the same way.
Terminal Transfiguration can transform into any known creature. Among the Terrans or Elves, only the most powerful druids are able to cultivate this skill. With the ultimate Transfiguration, the druid can transform into one of several extremely powerful creatures, and as his abilities increase, the variety of creatures he can transform into increases. Judging from the past records, the first transformation creature of these great druids with legendary strength, the most chosen is dragons!
Once the target creature is chosen, it is fixed from then on. If you want to turn into another creature, you have to wait for your abilities to go to the next level before you can choose a new shapeshifting creature. But the power of these strong men is already extremely powerful, and it is not easy to go further?
In order to take revenge, Nicholas chose the Elven and Terran transformations, which were much more fragile than the silver dragon itself. This is already a great sacrifice. But as a silver dragon, Nicholas's strength is almost at the top of the world's creatures, and it is almost impossible to find a creature species that must be stronger than him.
At this moment, Rogge had finished his lengthy speech and announced the start of the banquet, and the audience was thunderous with joy. The guests were cold and hungry, and they couldn't hold it anymore.
They were both curious and fearful of this great mage who had quickly risen to prominence in the Holy Alliance, and who was sitting on a beautiful and ruthless elven guard. It is rumored that all magicians are rich and have strange surnames, and Rogge seems to be no exception. While the other guests beckoned their servants with knives and forks to bring them roasted meat, Rogge ate it like a savage, with a crooked, strangely shaped silver cone.
Although Rogge's eating appearance is very rude, the sharp cone that emits a soft silver light in his hand is not ordinary at first glance. The guests only felt that the silver cones seemed to have an invisible majesty, and they did not dare to look at them a few more times.
At this moment, a pair of golden eyes in the extreme distance looked intently at the silver dragon horn in Rogge's hand!
Nicholas floated silently in the air, his face as cast of iron, expressionless. But the magic patterns around his body flickered and dimmed, showing that the power in his body was surging and undulating, and he was in a state of extreme chaos.
In the blink of an eye, Rogge swallowed a large piece of juicy roast meat, and licked the silver dragon horn with great satisfaction. Rogge's ears were sharp, and he only sneered in his heart as he listened to the deliberately suppressed discourse of the guests, with contempt and disdain. After a big battle, how many of these people can survive? When the strong fight between them, a small gust of wind that overflowed was enough to kill them dozens of times. Even if they were lucky enough to survive, they would not have escaped Rogg's murder. He gathered so many guests this time just to confuse the scene. As long as Nicholas delayed a little time to kill these ordinary people, Rogge had room to mobilize.
And these guests, unaware that they have become one of Nicholas's targets.
Because on a roast goose on the big table in the center, another silver dragon horn is being inserted. Curious guests have already tried this novel, artistically crafted eating utensil.
When Rogge inserted the silver dragon horn into another, larger piece of roast beef, Nicholas, who was on the verge of madness, finally calmed down.
He took a gem from his bosom and said to it, "Forgive me, dear Kragno, for ignoring your advice. These lowly creatures have insulted me most completely, and I can't stand the way Chrisferena's body is treated like this. If I didn't come back, I would have fallen before God. At that time, please pray to the dragon god on my behalf and ask him to rule on the injustice I have encountered. But remember, don't avenge me until you get the dragon god's instructions. ”
With a snap, the gem was crushed by Nicholas, and a small ball of light shot up into the sky, flew north, and disappeared into the sky in the blink of an eye.
The next moment, Nicholas had appeared in the center of the bonfire venue.
The temperature dropped dramatically, and even the roaring bonfire reluctantly went out after a few flickerings.
Nicholas paused slightly, and the entire City Lord's Mansion shook with it!
All the guests and servants had two thin lines of blood in their eyes, and slowly fell to the ground, dying silently.
Rogge snorted and fell to the ground, two streaks of blood flowing from his nose.
Nicholas smiled gracefully, stretched out his hand to Rog, who was struggling to get up, and said softly, "Give it to me." ”
