Recognizing that the other party was a level 7 swordsman, Ryan was taken aback, and the long sword in his hand was slightly paused.

Unexpectedly, instead of taking advantage of Ryan's flawed attack, the assassin took the opportunity to escape and fled at an accelerated speed.

"Don't go!" The other party wanted to escape, and Ryan was naturally going to chase after him, so he shouted and hurried to catch up.

However, once a level 7 swordsman runs, it is not something that Ryan, a level 6 swordsman, can catch up with at all. Even if Ryan used his fastest speed to chase after him, he was gradually pulled away.

In the blink of an eye, the two ran hundreds of meters, and Ryan was pulled away by a distance of thirty or forty meters, and saw that the wall of the manor was in front of him.

The four or five metre high wall cannot be climbed over at once without any tools and with bare hands. Even if it is a level 7 sword master, it can't be crossed in an instant, it must take a little time. The strong fighting spirit can make people jump higher, but it can't make people jump to a height of four or five meters in one jump, unless a level 7 sword master who specializes in self-cultivation in the wind system can jump that high.

Just when Ryan thought that the wall could block the assassin for a moment so that he could catch up with the assassin, an unexpected scene appeared, only to see the assassin jump, jumping more than three meters high, and then reached out and grabbed a rope hanging from the edge of the wall, and with a slight force, his body was suddenly pulled up, and he stepped on the wall in the blink of an eye.

Instead of jumping in and fleeing, the assassin glanced back at Ryan.

By this time, Ryan had already chased after twenty meters away, and he could see a hint of a smile in the assassin's hooded eyes, as if he was glad that he could succeed, and as if he was laughing at Ryan's incompetence.

Rui Anxin couldn't help but be angry. But before Ryan could react, the Assassin had already jumped off the wall.

Ryan quickly chased him under the wall, followed the Assassin's example, and jumped, but unfortunately he didn't jump high enough, close to three meters high, just because his left hand couldn't grasp the rope hanging from the wall. Moment of truth. Ryan stepped on the wall twice with both feet, and he was able to pull his body up half a meter so that his left hand grabbed the rope.

By the pull of the rope. Ryan quickly climbed the wall. His fighting spirit was one level lower than that of a level 7 swordsman's assassin, so he barely managed to climb the wall in the fastest time.

Ryan looked up, and through the moonlight, he vaguely saw that the assassin had run fifty or sixty meters away. He sighed softly. Didn't jump off the wall and continue to chase.

Moments later, the Assassin vanished into the shadows, never to be seen again. Ryan turned and jumped back inside the wall, he wanted to go back and see how Vic was doing as soon as possible.

On the way back, Ryan was bruised, his mind thinking about the assassin. Suddenly, Ryan felt a cold sweat break out, and he was scared for a while. He had just chased the assassin, and he didn't care that the assassin was a level 7 swordsman, but now he felt a little scared after chasing him: "I'm not the opponent of a level 7 swordsman." Even if you catch up, you will be defeated by the other party, or even killed, I was too impulsive and reckless just now. ”

"But why did the 7 assassins run away? With his strength. It's not very difficult to kill everyone in the Osedon family. Even if he doesn't want to kill, he doesn't have to run away in such a hurry, he just needs to knock down everyone in the manor and leave calmly. Fortunately, however, he escaped. Otherwise, I'll be defeated again. The more Ryan thought about it, the more scared he felt, he was seriously injured by a level 7 sword master last time, and he had a strong sense of fear for a level 7 sword master in his heart.

"The strength of this assassin doesn't seem to be as strong as I imagined, and fighting him for half a move, I don't feel like he's so strong that I can't resist. Could it be that he was a level 7 sword master who had just been promoted? It seems that only this reason can be explained. Ryan didn't expect in his mind that it had been more than a year since he was defeated by a level 7 sword master last time, and in this more than a year, Ryan had also made great progress, narrowing the distance between him and the level 7 sword master, although he still couldn't match the level 7 sword master.

In his thoughts, Ryan soon returns to Vic's attic. I saw that outside the attic, there were a few young guards of the family, guarding like a great enemy, and there was no one else in sight, thinking that these people were all inside.

As Ryan approached the door, he heard a cry coming from the second floor of the attic, which could be clearly distinguished, the voices of Fairly, Gaudí, and Aberdeen's butler. Ryan's face changed, and he secretly said in his heart: "Count Vic won't be killed, right?" ”

"Ryan-sama, did you catch the assassin?" A young guard asked anxiously. Although the Osedons family is in decline, they still have to hire a few guards, but the family is too poor to hire low-level swordsmen who are young and have little potential to advance. These young guards, these days, have seen Ryan show their might, and they worship Ryan very much.

Ryan shook his head and replied casually: "No, run away for him." Immediately ignoring the other party, he quickly entered the attic and stepped onto the second floor.

In the room, Vic was seen lying on the bed, covered in blood, with his eyes closed and motionless. Fairly and Gaudí lay on the edge of the bed, crying bitterly at Vic. Steward Aberdeen stood a little farther away, also crying bitterly. The leader of Shapu stood in charge of Aberdeen, and although he did not cry, the sadness on his face was no weaker than that of Aberdeen's steward.

Katisha also came, standing beside Fieldie, constantly comforting Filly.

As soon as Ryan entered the room door, everyone inside immediately looked back at Ryan.

Immediately Fairly got up and threw herself in front of Ryan, crying and shouting, "Brother Ryan, my father was killed. ”

Ryan's face sank and became extremely ugly, he was only slightly sad, more angry. Instead of comforting Fairly right away, Ryan walked over to the bedside to check on Vic.

A bowl-sized wound appeared in the middle of Vic's chest, almost piercing his body. Apparently, the assassin stabbed Vic in the chest with a single sword, killing him with a single sword.

Ryan was silent, his mind turning upside down, this was a long-planned assassination, who was the assassin instructed by? Why assassinate Vic? Why assassinate Vic and not the others? With the strength of an assassin level 7 swordsman, it was more than enough to destroy the entire Osedon family. Moreover, aren't the murderers and those behind the scenes not afraid of being pursued by the Kaoya Empire? You know, the assassination of a hereditary count will cause a sensation in the entire Kaoya Empire. The Kaoya Empire is bound to investigate, and it is bound to find the murderer, otherwise it will have an impact on the reputation of the Kaoya Empire. Who would dare to take such a big risk and commit an assassination?

The more he thought about it, the more headache he felt, because Ryan was not from Kaoya and knew very little about Farr City, so he was at a loss for so many questions.

Suddenly, as if she remembered something, Fairly stopped crying and asked, "Brother Ryan, did you catch up with that assassin just now?" In the words, sadness is mixed with infinite anger.

Ryan turned around, looked at Fairie and Gaudi, shook his head and said, "He's a level 7 swordsman, I can't catch up with him." ”

"Level 7 Sword Master?" Fairly and Gaudí shouted at the same time, "Does Big Brother Ryan know who it is?" ”

"He is wearing a hood on his head, so he can't see his appearance clearly, but it is estimated that this is a level 7 sword master who has just been promoted, and his strength is weaker than those old level 7 sword masters." After a pause, Ryan thought for a moment and then said, "If I fight him again, I will definitely be able to tell who is coming." ”

Suddenly, Fairly and Gaudí continued to cry helplessly.

For a while, Ryan didn't know how to comfort the siblings, he thought for a moment and asked, "Do you know if the Osedon family has a feud with anyone?" ”

Ryan wants to turn the sadness of the siblings into hatred, which can be used as motivation for future life.

Sure enough, the sister and brother gradually stopped crying and lowered their heads to remember.

After a while, Fairly shook her head and said, "Our family has pursued the purpose of forbearance for decades, and has never made enemies with easy people. So, the father hardly offended anyone. ”

Ryan thinks about it, if it weren't for the Osaidon family's forbearance everywhere, they wouldn't have fallen for hundreds of years and had not been wiped out. If the feud with others is really deep enough to kill people, with the fierce and aggressive character of most Kaoya, who act by force, how can those who have made a feud with the Osedon family let go of the Osedon family, who are so weak that they can be slaughtered?

"Think again, who are those whom you have not sinned against them, but who are going to bully you?" Ryan remembered that there were many people who came to the door to make trouble on weekdays, and asked again.

"There are too many people, there are many people in Farr City who covet our family's things, are jealous of our family's title, and want to bully us from time to time." Very unexpectedly, it was Gaudí who answered this time, his words were full of anger, and there was a hint of murder in his eyes. All along, probably under the influence of his father and sister, Gaudí's character was weaker, not at all like the tenacious and tough character characteristic of the Kaoya. But at this moment, when his father was assassinated and died, Gaudí's personality began to change.

"Among them, which ones are the most powerful bullies of your family?" Actually, Ryan asked this question a long time ago, but at this moment, Ryan still wants to ask one more time to make the siblings less sad.

This time it was Fairly who replied that she had assisted her father in managing the family in the past few years, and she had a clear understanding of the family's situation: "There is a marquis family in Farr City now, who doesn't look down on our family very much, and doesn't oppress our family, but it doesn't treat us well, just treats us as an ordinary family." There are also several families of Counts in Farr, none of whom have a good relationship with us, and they have banded together to exclude us, including two or three new families of Counts, who often oppress our family. As for the other viscounts and barons, seeing the decline of our family, many people like to oppress our family on weekdays, or buy all kinds of ancestral goods and inheritances from our family. ”

With the detailed description, Fieldly's grief lessened somewhat.

"Tell me, who is the most powerful and exceedingly oppressed you?" Ryan's tone was a little cold.

Suddenly, Fairly and Gaudí spoke in unison, and their anger completely exploded: "Count of Ahan." (To be continued.) )
