16. Tide of Darkness (1)
"The purpose of your coming here, I don't think, should it be as simple as that, to assassinate a lord who is not high or low, right? Although I have also heard that some people have been thinking of arrogance and ignorance in recent times...... Is that rumor true......"
Ye naturally has her own intelligence network, even if she does not deliberately run the assassin business, but some rumors can naturally reach her ears without deliberately tracking down at all.
"You know that too?"
"Of course, I'm also in that line of work, and I can't do anything if I'm not well-informed. It's just that I didn't expect that kind of news, which is nonsense no matter how you look at it, will actually be true......"
"Leave that aside from thatβyou can swear by your soul that the promise you made to me was not false, and it doesn't matter if you deceived me, but if I did something to the detriment of my people...... You'd better kill me on the spot, or I'll survive even if I can only fight with wild dogs for food in the future!"
"Ahh......h
Obviously this rabbit is her own captive, isn't it? Why is this girl completely unaware of being a captive now...... Is it really because I'm too good at talking?
But frankly speaking, in Ye's opinion, relying on one's own strength to put on a harsh oppressive posture towards the weak is a very tasteless practice - to the point that you need to find self-confidence and self-esteem in people who are weaker than yourself, such a person is simply full of flags and is not far from death.
Guys with such an attitude. Obviously not suitable for surviving in this cruel world.
"I said, you two friends. Can you handle those soldiers? Don't be good, something happens over there. Need your reinforcements or something...... If you're not mistaken, you should have the means to be able to feed back into your companion's state?"
Ye didn't intolerate the rabbit girl quitting halfway, and he didn't intend to force a person who was like an arrow by his side, but in case this side was in a tense and critical moment, Na'er was suddenly distracted, maybe it was the rhythm of a senior sister. If this happens, this account will definitely be credited to your own head!
Ye definitely didn't want to be on the blacklist of the Spirit Clan.
"Yes, but don't worry, I can't handle a dangerous guy like you. But if the opponent is such an 'ordinary person', Phil and Lily will not have any problems - with Lily's illusion, Phil will not have much of a problem even if she is injured now. β
Na'er's confidence in her companions is still quite strong. Don't look at Fei'er's performance before, that's because she can't adapt to the attack of this spicy human assassin at all, Fei'er, who is already taking the path of a speed-type warrior, meets Ye, who is more skilled, and it is inevitable that she will be restrained. On the other hand, there is a lack of cooperation with Lily's spells. There are many means that cannot be used...... But now, the two of them can work together with all their hearts.
"That's what you say......"
Ye walked to Na'er's side and bit his finger, which was stained with blood right in front of Na'er's forehead. Quickly drew a character.
"Wow, what are you doing?"
"Cut off all the means of long-distance transmission from your body - this kind of magical mechanism such as recitation will be detected, and I don't want to attract too many onlookers. β
The bloody character smeared on Nail's forehead. It began to emit heat slightly, and soon Na'er felt the skin on her forehead feel a little hot. I can't help but nervously want to erase it.
"Don't move...... It's just a simple cover-up that won't penetrate into your soul. β
There is no need for Ye to lie to Na'er in such a place. The characters applied to her forehead began to "seep" into her skin after a short period of heat, but in a matter of seconds, the thick blood-red characters disappeared, leaving only a faint pink in front of Na'er's forehead.
"I can't feel it...... I can't feel the situation on Lily's side......"
As the other party described, Na'er did not find that the contractual connection she had set up on her body was terminated, but the messages returned from the outside world were "blocked" and could not receive messages from her companions.
"Now, the mage has been stigmatized as a rat crossing the street, and there are many traps set against the mage - the two common spells, the spell shield and the chanting, because their mechanism is widely spread, and they are the representative skills of mages, so they are used as 'sharp weapons' to detect the identity of mages. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, this preparation is still needed. β
"Has such a strange wave in your human society developed to such an extent?"
It can almost be said that the opposition and persecution of magicians are carried out by the whole people...... No, if you really want to say it, it's not so much about mages as it is about "magic" itself!?
"It may seem 'anomalous' to you, but for those of you in the midst of this torrent, there is hardly anything abrupt about this change in mindset - with the exception of a few, the attitude towards magic in the human kingdom has basically changed...... All people spontaneously believe that magic is unclean and the embodiment of evil. β
Because of this strange change, the lives of many people around Ye have been greatly affected. Like Ye and her sister, because their original profession is assassins, although they can also do a few tricks, they are not their main business after all, and they are not greatly affected...... But there are some people who immediately fell from the sky to the earth, who had no worries about food and clothing, and even had a prominent status, but now they have to hide in Tibet.
"Haven't you been affected by the Spirit Clan?"
"Because of the protection of the Great Enchantment, there is no abnormality, but the situation on the orc side should be similar to yours, right? Originally, those respected sacrifices and shamans were all brutally persecuted, and those who escaped with their lives have now all escaped into the heart of the desert, relying on the harsh natural environment to escape from the pursuit. β
It's also a shame that this is a group of spellcasters, and their ability to transform nature is much stronger than other professions, otherwise they would have to die in the desert by themselves without the help of the pursuers.
β...... Looks like we'll have to go to the orcs after that......"
"What are you going to do with the orcs?"
"Verify something. Ye took out a small scroll from his bosom and threw it to Na'er, "Entrusted by people, loyal to people, although it is very troublesome, but you can only do it - remember to destroy it after reading it." β
There was no need for Ye to make too many reminders, Na'er, whose face had changed greatly, had already urged her fighting spirit to tear this scroll to pieces.
"Those...... Is it all true?"
"Sister Sharis's almost lost her life for these news, and the accuracy is worth guaranteeing. β
β...... Add me one. (To be continued......)
