Chapter 1017: Under the Scythe of Death, All Beings Are Equal (Four Thousand)

The time hand is pulled back five days ago......

......

I have to say that the temple will indeed have taken the defense to the extreme. Not to mention the rest, this unique terrain with isolated islands and surrounded by water is a natural barrier and dangerous place, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Coupled with the day-and-night patrols on the island and the endless magic detection methods, etc., it is nothing more than that.

Later, although Tang En had the idea of infiltrating through the underground waterway, he took a step deep into the hinterland of the island, and avoided the martial law method of the net on the maximum distance. But soon after, the center of the temple association, the independent underground water channel design, once again told Sù Tang En a bloody fact-the reason why the Temple of Light could stand on the mainland for thousands of years is indeed not unreasonable......

Walking in the air is a live target, walking on the ground can't avoid the sea of people, magic reconnaissance, and walking underground and directly hitting a dead end. Even the previous unfavorable means of teleportation could not get close to the island......

For a while, Don only felt that he was like a hunting dog circling around a hedgehog, delicious at the moment, but he couldn't talk about it at all!

Fortunately, the road to heaven is endless, and it is also fate, which makes Tang En think of the stubble that the eldest prince is about to be crowned and enthroned.

On the surface, this matter has nothing to do with Donn, and it has nothing to do with the assassination of the Pope. But things are often like this, under the circle, things that seem to be unrelated to each other can always meet unexpectedly and spark -

If the eldest prince wants to ascend the throne, he must come to the temple and be crowned. And the pope, who is responsible for awarding the crown, must of course also take the initiative to come out of the hedgehog cave at this time to greet the reception...... The powerful intelligence classification ability of the guò system. Tang looked up a number of previous ceremonies for the enthronement of the new king of Bran. Discover all the coronation locations. They are all fixed in the main hall of the temple......

What does the above information say?

It shows that even if Don can't sneak into the center of the temple, even if he can't get to the Pope's bathroom, kitchen, bedroom and other private places, he still has the opportunity to attack the latter. All you need to do is wait near the main hall...... From this, Tang En remembered the scene of the temple he had encountered when he passed by before, the holy land water lotus!

There, it seems, is just outside the main entrance of the main hall by the stone path......

subsequently

Five days!

Donn silently dives into the ornamental pond. Holding a hollow grass stem, with a holy water lotus on his head, his feet stepping on the void flowing water, and climbing under a lotus stem in a vine posture. No sleep, no food, no joy or sorrow, motionless, like a rockery stone that has been stored here and will always be stored in Zài......

Every morning, with the morning bell of the temple, open your eyes. Soon after, the faint sound of prayer through the water was heard in my ears. Tranquility and peace. As far as the eye can see, except for the fish and shrimp swimming around. The picture in front of me is vivid and consistent.

On the stone road, the most common thing is the armored guards who come and go, patrolling regularly and rigorously, with a solemn expression...... Even more stern and even somewhat humble were the temple attendants, hurrying by with all sorts of miscellaneous items, and occasionally leaning aside to salute...... There were also some nuns who passed by in broken steps, swaying and swaying, and the wide fat white robe could not hide the young and wonderful body under them...... Sometimes I will see a few old men in big red robes, with a cold face or a cold face, or kind eyebrows, walking in the middle of the stone road without squinting, and passers-by have to bow and retreat on the way. The expression of the queen unconsciously relaxed, and the sideways gaze occasionally glanced at it, spying viciously at the slender back of the white-robed nun beside her, and her hips were straightened......

From this stone road, which is neither long nor short, that is, the entire world of Tang En today, it can be seen that the class here is clearly distinguished, strictly observed, and almost never transgressed. Like a huge machine that works well, each component does its own thing, and each operates within its own class, and does not dare to set foot in any other field.

It is only at night, under the cover of night, that there will be some things that are not within the scope of the rules. Handsome temple knights, beautiful white-robed nuns, young temple handymen and women, etc., occasionally come to a secluded place next to the pond to have a tryst, each without disturbing, quietly enjoying the beautiful scenery of the pond under the moon. The time is generally not long, and it is very simple when getting along, at most it is touching the little hands, hugging and hugging something, and kissing is rarely seen......

It is worth mentioning that at this time, the intensity of the patrol guards has not slackened in the slightest, and the waves of magic detection ripples in the void have never stopped. However, it seems to be a good convention, and the wild mandarin ducks who have a tryst by the pond are completely ignored, which more or less reflects the human flavor of the temple......

Look, it's all associated with the corporate culture of the temple, and you can know how boring Don is floating underwater now......

The sun rises in the east and sets in the west, and the cycle repeats. The morning bells are still melodious and wanton, the collective prayers are still quiet and peaceful, and the world on the stone path in front of you is ...... Well, it's getting monotonous......

Emptiness, loneliness, loneliness, and the hopeless waiting that you may never see any hope of success, all these negative emotions come together into an icy cold tide that washes over every corner of Donn's body and mind, inside and out...... Eventually, everything turned into the clear pool water, which slowly rippled away with the wind......

Perhaps this is very different from the impression people get from the way of text, drama, etc., but this is the daily work of a killer!

Peel off the external embellishments of hot-blooded romance or cold pathos, and the rest is just boring, boring, patient, persistent, and handsome for no more than three seconds...... This is the dilemma and unique quality that a serious killer often encounters!

In fact, although Tang En has never really penetrated into the Otherworldly Assassin circle, he has occasionally heard of various legends about his counterparts in the Otherworld. For example, in order to get close to the target of assassination, to work as a coachman or a servant for several months, these are only pediatrics. In order to assassinate a nobleman who hid in the manor and did not come out, there was a female assassin who slept in the porter first, then the butler, and finally climbed into the nobleman's bed and succeeded...... In addition to this, there are more perverted ones, in order to wait for the arrival of the assassin. I squatted in the stinking pit for a few weeks. In the end, he got his wish and won the blow when the other party went to the toilet......

Compared to these. I have to say that Donn's previous career as a killer has actually been non-mainstream...... No way, it's not that he doesn't want to mix in the mainstream circle, it's just that there are too many obstacles from various subjective and objective bystanders, and the experience of being hunted and killed almost runs through his journey to the other world, and later he even went to the battlefield to mix around, how can he be a quiet and serious killer?

OK. Luckily and unfortunately, after a long walk, Don finally returned to square one, got up to his old job, and spent five days underwater puffs......

Perhaps it was this rare seriousness that made the goddess of fate who was in the underworld look at him extraordinarily, so Don's luck burst into flames-

On the day of his coronation and accession to the throne, an old guy who looked like the target appeared in his sight......

Don had never met the Pope in person. That's for sure. In fact, except for the people in the temple, even ordinary princes and nobles. Nor may he have been able to see the Pope himself, who has always lived in seclusion.

Fortunately, there are portraits of the Pope on the market, and fortunately, Philip is not an ordinary prince and nobleman, not to mention that there is a 'traitor' Owens here...... Therefore, after comparing the body shape, appearance, clothing characteristics, etc., of the kind-eyed old man in front of him with the impression in his heart, Tang En had a nearly eighty percent certainty.

As a result, the water ripples vibrated and rippled, and the body clinging to the lotus stem trembled slightly, and while removing the rigid consciousness of the limbs, the fierce beast was awakening!

In a blink of an eye, seeing the guys in domineering robes on the side, as well as the big people who were surrounded by them, who were obviously not low, but maintained a humble and low attitude, the corners of Tang En's mouth were slightly raised, and a few blisters leaked out, and he was ten out of ten affirmation.

The gaze is instantly peaceful, and the murderous heart is determined!

Immediately, when he saw the target take a few steps to this side as if deathly, and came to the railing, facing the bouquet of lotus flowers above his head, Don En smiled, and smiled very gently, without a trace of murderous intent.

The next moment,

Kicking the legs, leaping, and making an uproar, he instantly tore apart the priceless water lotus, and burst out of the water.

The water lotus is less than three zhang away from the railing, which is almost equal to nothing for Tang En, and it is within his killing range. Therefore, in the time that was not needed to blink unconsciously, Don jumped in front of the Pope, met the suddenly constricted cloudy pupils, raised his hand, waved the dagger, and drew a deadly arc......

"Huh?" "Be careful!" "There's an assassin—"

However, it is almost certain that all the big people who are in high positions and pampered are rarely strong people who have been through a hundred battles and will not die. However, the lack of combat experience does not mean that they are not strong in their own strength, at least not the more than ten cardinal archbishops in the temple. On the contrary, each of them has the strength of a magister. Before Donne's dagger arrived, they suddenly came to the alarm and shouted in unison...... But

It's just a warning, and what they really want to do, such as taking effective means to save the Pope, etc., is really overestimating and embarrassing them.

The real rescuer was the serpent spear that stabbed silently from behind the Pope's side and in the diagonal ground when the lotus flower was torn apart in an instant!

It was an old man with frosty white sideburns and sharp eyes like an eagle, who had been following the Pope like a shadow, but he had a very low sense of storage, and he had never greeted the eldest prince and others on the shore dock or on the way, and the latter basically didn't notice him. However, his identity is indeed the upper level of the temple, and he is a retired Holy Grand Knight!

His existence shows that although the temple seems to be dismissive of Tang En's assassination in words, it is not ambiguous at all in actual action, and it is important enough!

But unfortunately, despite all this thoughtful precautions, when Don really burst out to assassinate, the rescue speed of the retired Grand Knight Captain was still half a breath slower......

There are two reasons for this situation: first, objectively, Donn's speed is too terrifying, and second, subjective, when the Pope walked a few steps to the railing, the retired Grand Knight Captain did not follow in time as before.

Of course, he is not to blame. After all, no matter how much you follow you, it is impossible to follow closely step by step. As a result, his current position is a little awkward, he can't stand in front of the Pope at the first time, and the angle of his rescue is extremely awkward......

But whatever the reason, the retired Grand Knight Captain made a mistake after all. So after weighing it in an instant, he made a decisive decision - to give up rescuing the Pope and shoot Donn in the left chest!

Wei rescued Zhao ...... Tang En, who jumped into the air, couldn't help but secretly praise when he saw this, this is indeed the most correct way to deal with it at the moment. If Don insisted on completing the assassination, it was likely that he would end up with the Pope. And if Don hesitates a little, or chooses to swing the dagger to block the spear first, he will lose the best opportunity to assassinate, and the result can be imagined.

I have to say that the Holy Grand Knight Chief is the Holy Grand Knight Chief after all. As the sharpest of the temple's external forces, even if he has retired, he can bloom with a dazzling splendor that is different from other temple high-level people!

But unfortunately, it was Don who he met this time...... The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and his eyes were always nailed to the Pope who was subconsciously stepping back and slightly raising the crystal scepter in his right hand.

Killing Feast!

The next moment,

Screaming, "No......"

Poof-blood splashed, and the cold spear bit Tang En's left chest like a poisonous snake spitting out letters, penetrating in an instant, piercing a transparent blood hole!

Sizzle—at the same time, Donn's right hand with the dagger was steady, without a hint of trembling, and in the horrified eyes of everyone around him, he instantly swept over the Pope's shriveled neck like a dehydrated orange peel,

Sneer, listen, there's a wind moaning. The thin lines of blood spread and tore in an instant......

The hand of time seems to stand still at this moment.

Immediately, with a click, the crystal scepter fell into the dust, rolling half a circle and then completely stopped. The huge holy crystal at the top of the scepter shimmered with effort, and it looked very unwilling. It could have emitted earth-shattering power, making a movement that turned the river and the sea upside down, as long as it was given a few more breaths, no, one breath of time was enough...... But now, it can only lie there without power, quietly ......

It's over......

At this time, Tang En's eyes that were as calm as deep mountains and ancient wells flickered slightly.

As the clergy who often talk about the teachings of the god of light say, all beings are equal. Under the scythe of death, all things are equally equal. Even if he is a spokesman for the gods who walk in the world,

Even if he is the Pope......

............

(PS: Many book friends are guessing how the tanuki is going to kill the big boss of the Pope, haha, that's right, he stabbed him to death! The so-called loud voice, elephant invisible...... Ahem, well, I can't make it up...... Haha, just kidding. In fact, this was decided a long time ago, and the tanuki had never spent time on the role of the Pope before, this is just a trick, and the trick should have the consciousness of getting a bento when he appears, right? Even if his status is high enough, but, well, the trick is the trick...... Are you satisfied with this explanation? If you are not satisfied...... You're going to hit me ^-^) (Want to know more exciting news about "The Strongest Killer System"?Open WeChat now, click on the "+" sign in the upper right, select Add Friends to add the official account, search for "Qidianzhongwenwang", follow the official account, and never miss every update again!)
