Chapter Forty-Eight: The Black Wolf's Helper
The black wolf actually has a helper!
This news was like a heavy mountain, pressing on the hearts of every master present, making them breathless. How many helpers are there in the black wolf? What are their strengths? Why didn't you find them when you surrounded the small courtyard before?
These doubts made the master of the water mist technique forced to give up the attack and turn to the defense with all his might.
This gave the black wolf a rare respite!
The black wolf is not the descendant of the peerless Sword Saint, nor is he personally cultivated by the family, just an ordinary tide pirate. At best, it was only a little stronger and more ruthless than some ordinary fifth-order masters, but it was definitely not to the point where it was able to defeat five with one. He was besieged by five people just now, and although it was only for a short time, he was already very embarrassed. However, as the invisible deterrence caused several other masters to slow down their attacks, the black wolf, which was about to collapse, quickly adjusted back.
In the blink of an eye, more than ten seconds passed.
Under the agitation of the fifth-order master's fighting spirit, the effect of the water mist technique was rapidly dissipating. As a gust of night wind blew, the mist that blocked the battlefield completely dispersed, and the masters present were able to get a glimpse of what was going on.
The first master Ah Hua who was brought by Liu Yinfu had a deep wound near his back and chest. Moreover, the blood gushing out of the wound was faintly black, and it was obvious that the weapon of the person who attacked him had been quenched with poison. Although the instinct of the martial artist allowed Ah Hua to open a little sideways at the critical moment, thus avoiding the vital point of the heart, and then urgently taking the universal antidote, he was still useless!
With such an injury, even if you are lucky enough not to die, there is absolutely no possibility of doing it again within two weeks.
The second person to be attacked was the swordsman brought by another shipowner, the one who had been injured in the leg by a magic trap earlier. Probably already on alert, he just had a cut in his right arm. Although the injuries were not severe, they still affected the sword, and the blood was also black. It can be said that there are two wounds on his leg and right arm, plus the poison on the weapon, his strength can only be six or seven percent at most.
After such a variable, the original five fifth-order masters suddenly became three and a half!
But what about the black wolf's helper?
Judging from the fact that both of the injured were poisoned by the same poison, it is likely that the same person was the one who did it. After all, if it was more than one person, at the most chaotic moment, the five masters should have lost more, rather than only one person being severely injured. But the problem is that although I know that the black wolf has an accomplice, the small courtyard is empty at the moment, and I can't see the existence of others!
This made the masters present frown deeply.
"That person is probably a professional assassin who has sneaked around with the help of the environment!" The man with the injury in his right arm briefly treated the wound, and then said: "The strength is estimated to be around the fifth order, but it will not be stronger than me, because I already felt him the moment he made a move." ”
This fifth-order swordsman, who had personally fought against the assassins, had the most right to speak, and as soon as his inference came out, the masters present breathed a sigh of relief. Although a fifth-order assassin is troublesome, as long as you are vigilant, no one will be afraid of him in a head-on battle. Even if the black wolf has such a helper, it is only two to four, they still have enough odds to win!
Moreover, everyone knows that the fifth-order assassin is probably the only helper of the black wolf!
After stabilizing a little, the four swordsmen relaunched a fierce attack on the black wolf in the encirclement. The hard-hit Ah Hua was helped back by Liu Yinfu, but after confirming that he was safe, Ah Hua, who was barely supported, fainted almost directly, and his condition seemed to be very unoptimistic.
However, because he brought enough people, this battle was obviously not worse than him.
The remaining four fifth-order swordsmen all have some real skills. After experiencing the twists and turns just now, now they are also attacking with all their might, sword light is horizontal, and they have no temper to kill the black wolf. In less than ten moves, the black wolf already had several more wounds on his body. Although he was supported by the internal practice of steel and iron bones, his body was also getting sluggish and sluggish.
Seeing this, the masters present became more and more vigilant while they became excited.
Everyone knew that Black Wolf's fellow assassin must still be hiding around, waiting for an opportunity to strike. At present, the form of the black wolf is already extremely bad, unless he can sit and watch the black wolf be killed, he will definitely look for an opportunity to force his shot. And this blow is likely to be the key to determining the outcome of the battle!
Not only the masters present realized this, but Lu Chengfeng also knew it in his heart. He stared at the battlefield with the light of the torches, and quietly moved to the highest position, and at the same time was ready to strike. Once Liu Yinfu and the others fail to intercept and let the black wolf break through, Lu Chengfeng will kill it at the critical moment and give the black wolf a fatal blow!
My previous tracking was discovered by this guy. If it weren't for his own intelligence, he thought of killing people with a knife, and the black wolf's past career as a bandit made him like a rat crossing the street, otherwise the person who enjoyed the assassination of that fifth-order assassin would be himself. Therefore, against the tricky enemy of the black wolf, Lu Chengfeng was determined to kill. This time, the form is very favorable to him, and he can't let him escape no matter what!
Three more tricks!
The form in the courtyard has reached its most oppressive moment, and even the air seems to have stopped flowing. At this time, perhaps because the sounds of fighting, screams and torches were too dazzling, the city guards in the eastern part of the city finally reacted slowly and sent a small team to search this way. From a long distance, the interested guards began to shout, both to give each other and to give themselves a chance—they didn't bother to bother.
Everyone knows that time is running out!
The four fifth-order swordsmen finally came up with the sword skills at the bottom of the box. After one of them took the lead in striking the Flame Sword, the three fifth-order swordsmen seemed to be not to be outdone, and each automatically used their fourth- and fifth-order sword skills. For a while, the vertical and horizontal sword qi made a sneering sound, swaying the torches dozens of meters away.
At the center of the sword skill bombardment, the black wolf was even more embarrassed.
Even though his gloves had been blocked with all his might, the lethal Flame Sword broke through his defenses and blasted into his body in the first place. The sword skills of the other three also hit the black wolf one after another. Not only did it disperse the black wolf's fighting spirit, but it also made him spit out a few mouthfuls of blood, and even broke several ribs!
If it weren't for the fact that the internal practice method of steel and iron bones was really very good, and the black wolf had been immersed in this exercise for many years, cultivating it almost to the top, he would definitely die at this moment.
Rao is like this, the black wolf who has suffered several sword skills in succession is still hit hard, and has lost eighty percent of his combat power!
Seeing the embarrassed appearance of the dying black wolf, Liu Yinfu only felt extremely happy all over his body. The hatred that had been remembered for many years all surged into his chest in an instant. While laughing proudly, he couldn't help but take two steps up, pointed to the black wolf's blood-covered face, and scolded: "A dignified fifth-order martial artist, the boss of the black wolf bandit group, aren't you very powerful?
Being turned over and stepped on in the face by the owner of the small boat he had bullied, the black wolf must have felt very uncomfortable in his heart. However, he actually endured it stubbornly. Without saying a word, he dragged his weak body and made the last resistance.
Seeing that the enemy was powerless, the other owner of the ship was also happy. Feeling that the great revenge was avenged, he couldn't help but take a few steps forward and said to the black wolf: "As early as back then, I swore an oath. One day, you will be torn to pieces. Black wolf, black wolf, your life is destined to be extinct here today! If I don't dismantle you in eight pieces, it will be difficult to solve the hatred in my heart!"
"Oops!"
At this moment, Lu Chengfeng, who was watching from the sidelines, changed his face suddenly, almost didn't stand up from his hiding place, and his hand was directly on the hilt of the lightsaber. Several fifth-order swordsmen who were about to kill the black wolf also changed their faces drastically, and one of them immediately returned to the rescue and rushed towards the ship owner.
It turned out that under the excitement of being too excited, the ship owner who thought he had some strength had already escaped the scope of Liu Yinfu and his two fourth-order guards.
It was these three steps that allowed the shipowner to step into the gate of the underworld with one foot!
Almost as soon as he took that step, the fifth-order assassin who hadn't appeared since the sneak attack turned into a faint, almost invisible black shadow, and slashed out of the shadows under the courtyard wall with unimaginable speed, and the blue dagger in his hand stabbed directly into the back of the owner's heart.
This is the best opportunity he finally found after waiting and waiting!
Reminded by his own people, the overly excited owner also realized the danger. Without saying a word, he pulled out the sword at his waist without looking back, and stabbed it backwards with his backhand.
However, that fifth-order swordsman had no desire to kill him at all!
This ghostly blow was just to lure his men to come back to help. There were four people who besieged the black wolf before, including one who had two wounds on his body. Noticing that his boss was in danger, one of the fifth-order swordsmen immediately returned to help. In this way, only two fifth-order swordsmen were left who were actually surrounding the black wolf.
The originally tight encirclement finally showed a gap.
To be honest, if he had known that the people who came today were so strong, the black wolf would not have chosen to fight them head-on, and he would definitely have forcibly broken through at the first time. Fortunately, although it has been hit hard, it is still not too late. After getting this fleeting opportunity, he once again pulled out a magic scroll from the spatial ring!
"Air Blast!"
This spell, which is also not very lethal, has the greatest effect of compressing the air into a shockwave, which damages the enemy while using the air wave to push them away. With the help of the air explosion technique, the black wolf didn't think about it, dragged the seriously injured body and turned around and ran towards the courtyard wall. And his fellow assassin also rushed directly, grabbed the black wolf, jumped out of the wall with the help of that strange footwork, and accelerated to escape.
