In the hotel in Walker County, Xu Yue not only did not panic after hearing the return of the shadow, but showed a sneer.

"Tell Sù Cairus that we have guests going to him tonight, and let him 'entertain' well. ”

After hearing his words, the figure of the shadow bowed slightly, and the whole person instantly fell into the darkness under his feet. Looking at the strange scene when the shadows left, Xu Yue said to himself with a little strangeness: "The talent of the Shadow Clan is really terrifying, and they are worthy of being the best candidates to be scouts and assassins. ”

The humanoid form of this shadow belongs to a special race on the Great 6 of Talumia, the Shadow Clan. This race is actually a branch of the human race, but because of its particularity, it is in a semi-secluded state, and it is difficult to see them on the Big 6.

ShadowClan people are no different from normal humans, but they have a very strange ability to transform themselves into shadows and move freely in any shadow and dark place. Because when it turns into a shadow, its aura can almost completely merge with the darkness, so if it is not too much strength, it is almost impossible to think of the shadow clan who incarnates into a shadow.

Thousands of years ago, the ShadowClan used to be the best scout and the most terrifying assassin on the Talemia Big 6, because of their racial talent, and there were even examples of legendary powerhouses being successfully assassinated by ShadowClan level 9 assassins. Although the Shadow Clan Assassin relied more on the poison on the weapon to get to the death of that legendary powerhouse. But that's enough to show how terrifying the talent of the ShadowClan is.

However, the world is fair, giving the ShadowClan a terrifying hidden talent, but it also makes them much lower than ordinary humans in terms of fertility. Because while the body is transformed into a shadow, it will also be invaded by the rich shadow element, which causes the death rate of Shadow Clan babies to be as high as sixty percent when they are conceived, and the probability of pregnancy of Shadow Clan is even lower and scary. Therefore, in the history of Talumia, the ShadowClan only had a brief moment of glory as the strongest Assassin race, and then immediately disappeared from history.

The reason for this is because of the fertility rate and baby survival rate of the Shadow Clan's cheating father. Even the most astute assassin. There was always a chance that they would miss, and during that time when ShadowClan was active, they had provoked a lot of enemies, and in the end, several major forces even joined forces to try to destroy these elusive assassins. In the end, although the Shadow Clan was not completely exterminated, it also greatly damaged the vitality of this already sparsely populated race, and had to completely withdraw from the stage of Talumia's Big 6 and go into hiding.

The shadow figure who reported the situation to Xu Yue was a shadow clan, and he was also a sixth-level powerhouse. The name of this Shadow Clan powerhouse was Gabriel, and he was originally just a fifth-level powerhouse that Aivo had purchased. Originally, Ivo bought this guy from the slave traders, who was originally just an ordinary fifth-level thief class. is a high-level person who intends to populate the Guardian as a scout in the Guardian Force.

But what Xu Yue and Ai Wo didn't expect was that Gabriel, a fifth-level thief, actually had the blood of the Shadow Clan, and it seemed that the bloodline was quite pure. In just one month after entering the Guardian Team, Gabriel, who was already at the peak of the fifth level, was promoted to the sixth level with the various rich resources provided by the Guardian Team, and at the same time, the Shadow Clan bloodline in his body was also awakened at this time. After Xu Yue received the news, he checked a lot of information before he determined that he was the legendary Shadow Clan.

After learning who he is. Gabriel was also amazed, considering that he had only thought that he was an ordinary human being, and that he and his only sister had lived together since he was a child. And maybe because of his ShadowClan blood, he was naturally good at concealing sneak attacks, so he ended up joining a small group of thieves.

Of course, this kind of small thief organization cannot be compared with the official organization such as the Thieves' Guild, but it is just a small organization composed of thieves professionals who do not abide by the rules of the Thieves' Guild, and most of the work they receive is theft and assassination. After seven or eight years of hard work. He was also promoted from a rookie thief to level 5, becoming a member of the upper echelons of that guild.

Unfortunately, however, their organization offended a powerful nobleman because of an assassination business, and after the nobleman mobilized his own family forces to encircle and suppress Gabriel's organization, the small organization disappeared under the attack of the powerful forces behind the nobles.

Gabriel, a fifth-level thief, was seriously injured and dying under the siege of several strong men of the same level, and he should have died in that encirclement battle. But at the critical moment, he was going to bring his sister, who had escaped with him, to stand up and block him. Although the Shadow Clan people have the defect of having difficulty in childbirth, their genes are very good, and both men and women are very handsome.

The nobleman who wanted to get rid of Gabriel took a fancy to his sister's appearance. Forced by his sister's death, he finally accepted Gabriel's request to spare his life, at the cost of his sister willingly going with the nobleman. But the trouble is that it was officially caused by Gabriel's acceptance of the assassination of a relatively important figure in the noble family, and if Gabriel was just let go like this, that nobleman would not be able to talk about it in the family.

In the end, Gabriel was left alive, but was reduced to a slave and sold to the slave market.

After reaching level six and awakening the ability of one's own bloodline. Gabriel approached Evo, and he offered two conditions, one being that when he reached level seven, the Chamber of Commerce would restore him to the status of a freeman. Another condition is to help him find his sister and give him asylum. And the most as a price. Gabriel is willing to sign the highest magic contract with Ivo, and serve the Chamber of Commerce for life as Ivo's subordinate, no matter what level of strength he reaches in the future, this contract will take effect.

After discussing with Aiwo, Xu Yue agreed to Gabriel's request. It was a viscount of the kingdom of Shia who took Gabriel's sister away, and Ivo mobilized all his connections like the viscount's family to put pressure on him, and at the same time demanded that the viscount return Gabriel's sister in exchange for some of the interests held by the Chamber of Commerce. At the same time, Xu Yue, as the marquis of the Xia Kingdom, made representations to the viscount.

An honorary marquis of the Kingdom of Xia, although it is an honorary title without an actual fief, but when the title reaches this level, the rights it represents are already a very astonishing level. Even if Xu Yue has not yet shown his muscles in the aristocratic circle, he has not been completely accepted by the nobles of the Xia Kingdom. However, under the huge interests and the oppression of a marquis, there are not many choices that a nobleman who is just a real viscount can make, and even the family of that viscount thinks that he would risk offending a marquis for the sake of an ordinary woman who is just beautiful. Even the practice of the honorary marquis is not in the interests of the family, not to mention that the other party has paid enough benefits to make the family tempted.

Fortunately, the viscount himself only coveted Gabriel's sister's beauty, and did not have feelings such as so-called obsession. So after Xu Yue gave him and the family behind him face and steps to step down, the viscount also agreed to return Gabriel's sister.

To Gabriel's delight, the viscount was perhaps playing with gentlemanly manners, and did not forcibly possess her sister, but intended to use his extraordinary courage and demeanor to make the beautiful woman throw herself into her arms. But it clearly didn't work out well. So until Xu Yue and Ai Wo came up, he didn't even touch a finger of Gabriel's sister. It had only been a month since Gabriel was sold into slavery.

To Xu Yue and Aiwo's satisfaction, Gabriel is indeed a guy who understands Entu. He knew how much benefit Ai Wo and Xu Yue had paid to save their sister and how much of their own relationship they had used. Therefore, after meeting his sister, he signed the highest magical contract with Xu Yue and Aiwo with great gratitude. Once this kind of magical contract is signed willingly, even if it reaches the legendary level in the future, it can be seen how much Gabriel loves his sister.

In the time that followed. On the premise of the contract, Xu Yue and Aiwo mobilized a huge amount of resources to pour into Gabriel's body. And this young thief, who was just twenty-three years old, after awakening his bloodline, his own strength also increased explosively, and he broke through again in just two years, becoming one of the most important seventh-level combat forces under Xu Yue and Aiwo.

Originally, according to the opinions of Aiwo and Xu Yue, since Gabriel has become a seventh-level powerhouse, the relationship between the two parties can be raised to the level of the same level. Gabriel's identity should also be transformed into a master enshrined by the Chamber of Commerce. But Gabriel himself insisted on presenting himself as a subordinate. After Xu Yue discussed with Aiwo, he could only follow his wishes.

In the list of the top powerhouses of the Chamber of Commerce who went out with the army this time, Gabriel was one of them. He is also one of the killer tools of the Chamber of Commerce in finding out information and restraining the top powerhouses in Walker County.

In the hotel in Walker County, after seeing Gabriel leave, Xu Yue stood up and walked to the window. Outside, the darkness of the night was completely enveloped by the towns of Walkershire, and under the cover of the night, the whole of Walker County lay silently like a dormant beast.

"Is there a dark side of Walkershire? interesting, I don't know when both sides have their hole cards revealed. Can you still be as calm as you are now?" he said with a smile and whispered as he looked outside.

Time flies, and there is a moon on Talumia's side, but the moon here is much larger than the earth, and the color is pale blue. In the middle of the moon, it is already late at night, and it is about one o'clock in the night when calculated as earth time.

There was a secret but slight sound of footsteps in the streets of Walkershire. After a while, a group of people were seen gathering and walking quickly from the side of the main street in Walkershire.

It is a place where criminals, thieves and other outlaws gather. The night in Walker County is very dangerous, and if you go out and hang around at night, you will probably be killed by someone who doesn't know where you come from, and then don't take your money bag. So there are no people on the streets of Walker County at night at all. Only a pair of hidden eyes can be seen occasionally from some hidden places.

After seeing these people speeding down the main road, the guys who were hiding in the shadows stirred slightly, and then some people recognized the face of the person who walked in the front of them, and all the guys who were hiding in the shadows seemed to be frightened, and they didn't dare to move.

The purpose of these people who were still on the street at such a late hour was very clear, and after turning a few corners, they came directly to the outside of the hotel where Xu Yue was staying. After probing around a little, the person nodded and waved his hand directly, and a dozen people behind him immediately broke open the door of the hotel and entered inside.

Through the faint moonlight, it can be seen that this person in a black mage robe is none other than Darnell, who had previously held a meeting with the second-in-command of the other five forces in Walkershire. He was followed by a team of fifth- and sixth-level powerhouses sent by the major forces of Walker County.

Obviously, although the six major forces in Walker County did not attach much importance to Xu Yue on the surface, they actually acted very quickly when they dispatched personnel, and they sent the hidden masters in their respective organizations in just one day. Darnell himself is only a fifth-level magician. But the sixth-level powerhouses behind him did not resist his command in the slightest, but rushed into the hotel like obedient subordinates.

To Darnell's surprise and the others, after a long walk around the hotel, there was no sign of anyone in the hotel, as if the people had suddenly steamed out of the hotel.

When the six major forces decided to make a move, they had already sent enough people to keep an eye on this place, and anyone and anything that went out of here would be secretly and carefully scrutinized. It's almost impossible to get out of here in disguise or hide in something else.

Darnell thought for a moment. He sneered and said, "It seems that this little mouse has sensed something, there should be something like a dark room or a secret passage here, but it's not a problem." ”

After finishing speaking, I saw him wave the staff in his hand, and suddenly a spell model was constructed in two or three seconds. I saw a ripple spread from the tip of the staff, and then spread towards the walls and floors of the entire hotel. He closed his eyes and felt it under the cover of magic. After a while, he snapped his eyes and led everyone to the cellar under the hotel. After glancing at a wall blocked by a wooden frame, he casually shot a fireball at the wooden frame.

An explosion sounded, and the wooden frame was shattered by this fireball technique that deliberately controlled its power, and after waving his hand to find a wind element to disperse the dust in front of him, a deep hole appeared on the wall. Darnell gestured to one of the thieves in the team behind him. I saw that the thief nodded, and his figure flashed into the hole.

They waited in silence outside the cave for about three or four minutes before the thief dodged out of the cave.

"There's a passage leading out of town, and there's no ambush or any of us in the passage, and our goal should be to sense that something is wrong and run through the passage. However, judging from the eradication of traces, they did not take long immediately, and we were able to catch up easily. ”

Darnell sneered and said, "Catch up and get back the head of that Chatner named Xu Yue." We're going to make those outsiders who want to fight Walker County until, if they want to steal meat from our bowls, they have to be prepared to lose their lives. ‘

The other powerhouses also had cruel sneers on their faces, and then these people ran into the passage.

At the same time that the forces of Walker County sent strong men to hunt down Xu Yue, a team of about 10,000 people was also surrounding the guards hiding in a forest outside Walker County. The personnel of these teams appear to be wearing a variety of armor and look like a rabble of bandits.

But these men acted in an orderly manner, and the whole team did not mess up in the slightest. And judging from the eyes of these people and the momentum exuded from their bodies. Nor is it comparable to the bandits gathered by the rabble. This is a well-trained army, and judging by the marching actions that are forbidden by its orders, this army can even be considered a relatively elite army.

The march of the army was fast, and there were even about 3,000 cavalry troops among the thieves disguised as bandits. Those sturdy riding beasts don't move in the forest like the horses of the earth. These large, leopard-like riding beasts have claws similar to those of leopards. They can nimbly avoid the branches of large trees on the road in the forest.

As they approached the convoy, the more cautious the troops became. The fire in the convoy camp could already be seen through the sparse woods ahead. Because camping could only be done in the open, the convoy camp was in a rocky area of the forest.

After getting within a certain radius of the camp, the people on this side could already see some of the guards patrolling the perimeter of the camp. Just when the commander of the army wanted to carefully observe the situation in the camp before attacking, suddenly a member of the patrol suddenly shouted at the top of his voice: 'Enemy attack!'

After shouting, the patrol and his teammates ran towards the interior of the camp as fast as frightened birds. Several other patrols followed suit and ran into the camp shouting about the enemy attack.

The commander of the army was taken aback, and he did not understand how his army had been exposed by the patrols of the opposing side. Not to mention their deliberate concealment, even the two sides are still some distance. Could it be that the members of those patrols are carrying some magical items that can be guarded from a distance?

Instinctively, something was wrong, but the situation in front of him did not allow the commander of this army to hesitate. The patrol has already raised the alarm, so the other party will react quickly. If you wait until the other party has sorted out the team before rushing over, then there is no point in sneak attacking.

So the commander of the army can only wave his hand at this time. Let the army behind him rush forward. The cavalry rode at the front, and their riders held torches in both hands and threw them at the tents in the camp. Suddenly a raging fire burned over the tents.

Because of the temporary camp, there were no barriers around it, and the sneak attacking army rushed into the camp very smoothly. However, after the cavalry troops threw their torches with all their might, and most of the tents were lit, not half of the guards were seen rushing out of the tents. Even the patrols of the escort team who had run into the camp before seemed to have suddenly disappeared. Except for the shouts of killing when the army attacked, only the entire burning tent lit up the entire camp.

'No! There is an ambush, and everyone continues to rush forward, without stopping! Seeing this, the commander of the army immediately came to his senses and gave a loud order. His reaction was not unpleasant, even though he knew that his army had been ambushed. However, according to common sense, the ambush of the other party is probably mainly in this camp, so he ordered his army to rush out of the open space of this camp as soon as possible, so as to reduce the losses of the army in pairs to the maximum.

The commander's response was good, but not decisive enough. If it were me, he would have ordered the first time that the patrolmen were wrong with their appearance, and he would have let the army attack after a little hesitation. Obviously, he still has a fluke in his heart. This is the most important thing in war. ‘

On a nearby hill, Cairus said as he looked at the ambushed army.

At this time, Xu Yue, who should have been hunted down by the powerhouses of the six major forces in Walker County, appeared beside Kairus, and he said with a smile: "Your arrangement does not give this commander time to think at all. Anyone in that situation would instinctively choose to go on the offensive. After all, it's just a suspicion in a guess, and most people wouldn't choose to retreat if they wanted a commander to abandon a raid that was already expected to succeed. ‘

Kairus shook his head and said, "Actually, the other party should have been wrong when he touched the edge of the camp. In order to reduce casualties, we have exposed too many flaws. The mere fact that there were no secret sentinels to guard the surroundings was enough to arouse suspicion. And in order to prevent casualties among those members of the camouflage patrol, it is also a huge flaw to start warning when they are so far away from the other party. Those kids' acting skills are terrible, if it weren't for the night. Even the blind can see the flaws, and I have to teach them a good lesson when I turn back. ‘

Speaking of which, this is also because the other side despises us too much. Although the Earl of the Kingdom of Chia claimed that the army of his territory had been fought for a long time, his territory was not in the war zone on the border, so these troops were just the elite of the bandits and bandits who held his territory. I'm afraid that in the eyes of the other party, we are just armed with the same kind of bandits, right?" Xu Yue said with a smile as he looked at the soldiers who were desperately rushing forward.

Kairus looked at the army below and sneered, "This kind of elite can only be regarded as cannon fodder in the wars I have participated in before. The real elite is not something that can be trained by bandits and bandits. ‘

Xu Yue smiled and nodded, and said, "It's the first time I've seen Kailus, and you'll only be able to escort the team to fight." It's time for the first act of this big drama to be staged, and I hope those forces who are staring at us don't get too scared, otherwise it won't be fun in the future. ‘

After speaking. His eyes looked in the direction of Walkershire, where there was also a big drama going on. (To be continued.)
