The turquoise sand swirled in the air, clinging towards the man, and although it was pungent, the bright green was unusually gorgeous...... Like the legendary light of death.

It was an emerald dagger, a poison and a weapon, a well-known secret among the Assassins, made of the remains of an ancient plant that lived underground, and a dagger shattered into the finest powder. This weapon that doesn't require any magic is not simple, it is required to have killed a vampire who has a lifespan of at least 100 years -

Just doing this is already very difficult, because as we all know, it is very difficult for a vampire to be killed by a weapon that does not have any magic attached to it, unless you can completely destroy their heart, but to pierce the heart of a 100-year-old vampire with a dagger, it takes more than just a killer?

But because of this, the power of this poison is so terrifying, it is like an undead attached to it, it is extremely hungry for life, and the contact will dry up any body, like being sucked by a vampire...... If even the slightest bit of powder is inhaled, the burst of dryness from the inside can kill most living things almost instantaneously.

In contrast, the long, slightly curved knife is much simpler.

It was just a magic weapon, but it was added to the power of shrinking, shrinking from a long knife to a delicate dagger. But at this moment, it was equivalent to the body of death—an arc of sword light that shrouded nearly nine feet long not only cut through the air, but also guided those turquoise fireflies directly towards the target.

For this blow, the two killers were confident. They themselves have forgotten how many people they have killed in this way...... But as long as these two daggers are shot, no creature will survive. Not even Wyverns.

"So, the dragon leather armor on you. That's how it came about?"

The two killers were stunned.

In fact, even the other two people behind them were dumbfounded...... They saw that the man was not hiding, not even moving, but it seemed to have a flash of silver light, which made their eyes blink subconsciously. But just before my eyes closed, the short moment of opening less than a hundredth of a breath changed.

The smoke of the emerald dagger was gone, and the long knife. then stagnated in mid-air...... Two pale, slender fingers reached out and grabbed the tip of the blade, stopping it. The short killer was stunned for a moment and then jerked forward, but with a slight gurgling sound, the magical weapon bent slightly, but it didn't push forward a bit! Cast iron!

Sweat oozed from the short man's face, and he was pulling back, but the blade couldn't pull back either!

"Pretty good...... Oh, you're from the Elector's Legion?" their enemies raised their eyebrows: "It's a pity. But this power ...... It's a little weird, huh?"

The killer's leader's pupils contracted sharply, and he shouted, "Let's go together!"

"Good!" replied three times, but the tail note drifted to the side—along with the short man with the long knife in his hand. Everyone swooped forward in unison, and then swept backwards!

"Pretty smart......"

Edward sighed.

Only the young knight. It is the most leisurely storage at this time...... Naturally, the four killers didn't care about the discarded pawn, and the mysterious gray-haired young man had no interest in caring about this fool who was almost too weak to be mentioned. So he was fortunate enough to see a strange scene in his life that may never have a second time......

in sight. The man raised his hand slightly, and the long knife in his hand drew a semicircle in the air, and at the same time that the handle fell into his hand, at the end of his gaze, a running killer let out a thud.

How can a person make a thud?

The knight could not understand that, in the dim moonlight, he could only see the man fall headlong, as if something had fallen around him into a mist, and the voice was born.

And he didn't have time to think about it anymore - near his gaze, a silver light shimmered brightly, making him subconsciously avoid his gaze, and the light flickered, faded, and then was replaced by a layer of green luster!

It was, the emerald dagger.

The vanished magic poison reappeared, mercilessly eroding the human body, and with a soft snort, the originally strong body withered and shriveled, and the charred flesh was scattered like charcoal, spraying from the sleeves and neckline...... The knight's pupils constricted, and he felt the muscles of his whole body twitch, as if the corpse that had been sucked dry was himself.

Because it wasn't the gray-haired young man, but one of the killers on the run—the screams drew the knight's gaze back to a few dozen feet away, just in time to see that the young man named Edward had appeared at the killer's original location at some point.

His hand was raised, but it was empty, for the long knife had pierced through his original master.

The short killer was a little off the hook when he fled, and the distance he was too close to his companion made him the last prey.

Yes, the last one.

Because a blue light was already flickering in the farthest distance, the leader of the killer had already ripped open the scroll at this moment...... Step into the aperture of any door and disappear.

Edward clapped his hands and slowly approached the stunned knight.

"So, what are you going to do?" he asked.

"I, I, I...... You, you can kill me, I ...... I admit defeat, but you, even if you kill me, you won't do any good, he runs away, and this place is about to be turned into a sea of fire, haha, haha......"

The knight's voice trembled, but he eventually shuddered and shrieked. One qiē happened so quickly that it destroyed all his sanity like a landslide and tsunami - the killers who served the Illyrian authorities, the killers who were confident that they could slaughter dozens of knights, were killed one by one before his eyes. Died so simply. So that they have no power to fight back at all, and that is by no means because they are too weak. It's that the person in front of him is too strong.

"You, you can't save them! Surrender!" Fear made his body like a dead leaf in the wind. But he also squeezed out the last bit of his wisdom, and even his trembling voice became fluent, and he exhausted everything: "Yes, that's right, they, they will soon bring many people, more people...... Mage, even Tiberius will come! no matter how powerful you are. It is impossible to compare with him...... You, you!"

"Aren't there any beautiful women?"

“......”

"Don't you have a golden ticket?"

“...... What do you say?"

"Isn't there any condition?"

"No ......"

"Who surrenders without conditions? ”

With a casual move, Edward pinned the knight's words to his mouth—the poor knight's eyes widened as he saw the ground around him surging with earth and rocks, and something poking out of the ground.

The dirt-stained cloth had a sticky red in the moonlight, the pungent smell of blood, and the subtle moans of the thing made him barely make out that it was a person—almost out of shape, arms, legs. Even the body has been twisted into a strange shape, and even the head has been pitted...... But the gray-black color of the dirt cloth was enough to make the knight's soul fly.

Gray cloak.

The leader of that killer!

Didn't he teleport away? How did he get out of the ground? And why did he become like this?

One question after another fills the brain, but quickly. The knight finally understood what the terrible thud was.

It was the sound of a human skull cracking from within.

A tremendous pressure pushed the killer's skull from within, like blowing a sheepskin bladder. The facial features deformed and expanded at a rapid rate, and the two eyeballs bulged out of the sockets at once. The nostrils and mouth are pulled at will. The human head turned into a round ball the size of a hug, but the most terrifying thing was that even so, the frightened expression could still be seen on this face, until finally there was a muffled bang, and the scattered bones and flesh inside suddenly burst into a thick fog!

"The Elector's legion? Blame...... It's not Crimson, withering, Ice Wind or Thunder, it's not that...... Now, it's really interesting. ”

Edward muttered softly.

The tentacles of psychic powers invaded the human mind, but before the message could be sent back, some burst of energy had destroyed the body, and it was not a magical effect, but a collision of two different control powers.

The power of the heart, the power of the devil.

The Lord of the Nine Prisons gave the Emperor a gift to the Emperor, a power in the name of Isgandar. She adheres to the laws of the Sevenfold Hell and the Ninefold Temple, but now there should be only six legions that have been expanded in the main material plane - Scarlet and Withered were given to the Sukhoi and Lancefil families by the remnants of Isgandar's souls, and Ice Wind, Thunder, and an unknown ability were handed over by Edward to the three Imperials, and he himself retained the kind that belonged to the Aether Realm. But no matter which one it is, it's not quite the same as the one in front of you.

It seems that there are some minor troubles.

"Let's go. ”

The hapless knight shuddered in place, thinking that this was the last sound to send him on his way, but he closed his eyes and waited for a moment to die, only to find that he did not see the face of the legendary Grim Reaper...... When I opened my eyes, I saw a strange silver flash in the person's pupils, like a clear stream sweeping through my heart, almost sweeping away the fear and nervousness.

"Go...... Where to go?"

"Wouldn't it be troublesome to go back or be discovered?"

The natural tone made the knight stunned for another moment. Mindlessly, he watched as the man pointed casually, and swept all the magic items on the four corpses into the pocket on his side with invisible force, and the corpses were pushed into a deep pit, filled with dirt, and the four once powerful killers disappeared into this world, becoming the nourishment of underground insects and ants.

But...... He said to go back?

Not to mention whether the knights who are no longer companions have already discovered the problem, the imminent encirclement and suppression on the Imperial side alone is already a sharp blade...... Even if there are no watchers around, how can the Empire not react to the moderation of these people?

Go back, go back and die?

However, no matter how he cursed, he couldn't give birth to a trace of resistance.

The process of the skull swelling and bursting was like a never-ending nightmare engraved in my heart. Even if there are countless demons in the way ahead. This man told him to move forward, and he can only move forward now.

Ignoring the more than 100 feet behind him. A trembling knight, Edward paced slowly. When he walked near the farm, he noticed that there were already twenty or thirty figures standing in the darkness. Facing the road was none other than the menacing female knight Tahidi.

"Yo, haven't you slept so late, Miss Baron?"

"Do you know that I can kill you directly now?" The female knight was not wearing armor, and the frost on her pretty face was enough to repel people, and she held the magic blade in her hanging hand, and as long as she raised her hand, the sharp blade could appear in the opponent's throat. With indifferent questioning, several knights behind her also stepped forward, forming a semi-arc around Edward's body. Each holds a long sword in his hand, but the sharp murderous aura is almost imminent!

However. The man seemed to turn a blind eye, and casually snorted, "I don't know, couldn't you just kill me before?"

"Where have you been?"

"The barley rice for dinner was too coarse, and my stomach couldn't stand it, so I had to go to the toilet. ”

"Who do you think this clumsy lie can fool?"

The man's playfulness made the female knight change color again. But the guy was still unhurried, and didn't seem to care about the weapons in the other person's hands, let alone the sabre-rattling knights behind her.

"Do you have to lie to go to the bathroom? Besides, how could I not be there? Oh. Have you been there? But have you forgotten that I'm a man, and I'm not going to the same place as you?"

"I'll kill you bastard!"

The female knight roared and raised her hand, but the man still had a playful smile on her face, undaunted: "Hmm. Well, no kidding. Actually, I found out that there were spies involved. So I went to help you catch and killed several top killers sent by Illyria. I came back after making sure there was no danger. ”

This time, the female knight couldn't even speak.

If there really is a top killer sent by the Illyrian side. Can a guy like you come back alive?

"Lord Edward, did you really run into those spies sent by the traitors?" the old knight suddenly walked up a few steps and spoke, breaking the stiff atmosphere and making all the knights, including Tahidi, stunned.

"Teacher?" the female knight finally spoke with a look of incredulity, "Do you believe this guy?"

"Why don't you believe it?" the old knight stroked his beard on his chin and said softly, "Anyway, it's no longer safe here." We have to leave ......."

"But Lord Raymond, the scheduled operation still needs to be ......," said a middle-aged knight standing behind him, but the old knight had already turned and walked into the house, "Then advance." There's only one way we can deal with it, isn't it? Chakul, I'll tell them. ”

"Teacher...... He's really not an enemy?"

Following the old man and walking down the steps, the female knight spoke again and asked softly:

"If he is an enemy, it is enough to directly bring their people in and attack us, even if the strength is not enough for the time being, just leave, why do such a thing to attract our attention? If he is not an enemy, isn't what he said more credible?" The old knight smiled bitterly: "Our actions may have been discovered a long time ago, and the men who were supposed to gather should have arrived within two days, and if they don't come tonight, they won't be able to come." So, it's better to act ahead. But Tahidi, you don't want to participate in this operation. Just keep an eye on that guy, as long as we leave the two hourglasses, he's not in danger. ”

"This ...... It's not going to work!"

The female knight was in a hurry, but before she could finish speaking, the old knight had already raised her hand: "Your identity is special after all, I don't want this incident to really affect His Excellency the Duke, you know, if you really die, there will always be some innocent people involved." Well, don't be willful. ”

"But ......"

"Obey orders. ”

Tahi stopped and watched the old knight disappear at the end of the passage, biting Sakura's lip.

She was not stupid, and naturally knew that the teacher's words were nothing more than a clumsy lie - since she already knew that the plan was exposed, and acting in advance might not have the effect of a surprise attack, the seventy-four people here were just launching a dying struggle, and the chance of survival was close to zero.

She still didn't know what the teacher and those people were planning, but she guessed that they might have no way out.

The knights had no special request for rest, and in a moment they had gathered seventy-four, leaving one of the youngest knights and Tahi with the gray-haired young man to take another fork in the road, while the remaining seventy-two rode away.

"Seventy-two, quite an auspicious number. ”

Tahi stared coldly at the young man with an emotional face and strange words, but in her heart she was thinking about whether to stab him to death with a sword, and then join the team and fight together. But I saw the guy turn around and smile slyly: "How is it? Do you want to follow them to see the excitement? It doesn't seem too far, it's another place only about thirty miles away?"

How do you know?

"If they really had the ability to keep secrets, they would have succeeded this time. Edward chuckled, "Follow behind, maybe when they are in danger, you can help them?"

The temptation described in the soft voice made Tahi bit her lip, and her heart was like a swing, swaying non-stop. (To be continued......)
