Chapter 176: The Assassin Who Doesn't Draw His Sword
Early the next morning.
Bai Lianzhou couldn't sleep all night, and finally stayed up until morning, ready to go to Little Sissel to practice spiritual arts.
Jensen Sissel has strong spiritual power, and has repeatedly shown loyalty in front of the Yu Patriarch, and is now recognized as the strongest spiritual sorcerer of the Spirit Clan.
If it was an ordinary spiritual magician in the clan, it would definitely be difficult to get in touch with him, but the spirit clan and the astrology clan had a close relationship, and Bai Lianzhou had a secret alliance with him, so he could interact with him without scruples.
Just as he was about to get up and go to the Spirit Clan's territory, Rin Ye suddenly stopped him behind him.
"Where are you going?"
It was originally an ordinary question, but Bai Lianzhou was taken aback and almost fell to the ground.
"Hmm...... Go to the Spirit Clan and find Mr. Sissel. β
"Let's go, let's go together. β
There was silence between them for a long time.
Bai Lianzhou didn't know whether to promise him or refuse.
"What are you doing in a daze, I asked him to teach me fire elemental fighting techniques yesterday, and I happened to go with you. β
As usual, Rin Ye's arm rested freely on Bai Lianzhou's shoulder. He smiled faintly at the junior brother and took the lead in the direction of the Spirit Clan's territory.
Between these few words, Bai Lianzhou didn't understand the night again.
......
When I came to the Spirit Clan, it was still early, and as a few days ago, little Sissel was still asleep in the bed, and several of his personal servants didn't know what to do, and in the whole courtyard, there were only a few unfamiliar gatekeepers at the door.
But Bai Lianzhou didn't have the heart to think about these details at all, he was very nervous in his heart, and wanted to take this opportunity to test the night.
Squeak ......
The door opened.
Little Sissel walked out of the house topless, scratching his hair.
"Mr. Sissel, you're awake!" Bai Lianzhou said excitedly.
"If you don't get up again, your heartbeat will hit the bottom of the bed. Little Sissel said a word, turned to a blank look, and returned to the house angrily: "Put on some clothes and wait a while." β
Entering the house and changing into a light shirt, and buttoning the buttons casually, little Sissel walked out of the door again, pinched his waist and asked Rin Ye, "Are you really learning?"
Looking at his posture, holding the dragon's head longbow in his right hand, the god of war twin blades hanging on the belt around his waist, and a galisis spear shining with dark red light in his crotch, he is worthy of being the strongest fire spirit master, and he is heroic in any outfit.
Rin Ye was stunned for a moment, and replied again and again: "Learn, of course learn." If you say yes, you must learn. β
Hearing this, a smile appeared on the corner of Little Sissel's mouth, he stepped forward, handed the dragon head longbow in his hand to Bai Lianzhou, and said, "I really don't understand, whether you two recognize Rongmei as a master, or recognize me as a master." β
The harsh environment of the Gerry Empire also leads to the fact that fire spirit teachers will have stronger physical fitness and greater strength than the spirits of other countries, and their weapons are generally heavier.
Bai Lianzhou took the bow, only to feel a little heavy, not very good.
The longbow was dark red all over, and the rich spiritual power fluctuations were like blood vessels constantly agitating inside. The boy couldn't tell for a moment whether the metal was translucent or whether it was glowing with spiritual power. The longbow is held with a dragon scale pattern, and the palm of the hand is slightly worn.
And the most distinctive thing is the dragon's head at the bowhead. The forger carved the dragon's face with great detail, making it look particularly hideous. Below the dragon's whiskers, some very traditional Vulcan inscriptions are engraved, blended into the metallic light.
Looking at this bow, Bai Lianzhou felt both familiar and unfamiliar, and some memories in the depths of his mind were awakened by this fluctuation of spiritual power.
"Mr. Sissel, when did you start using this bow?" he asked.
"Ah, I want to think about it...... Probably from the time I could move it. Little Sissel replied calmly.
Bai Lianzhou asked again: "That's how long it has been used?"
"It's been a long time. β
After that, the two of them each glanced at each other with some humility.
Little Sissel's nervousness was even greater. Outside the city of San Randle, he led his mercenary squad to attack the elite troops of the Virginia Empire, and he was sure, and very sure, that Bai Lianzhou had seen him, and he had seen the weapon.
If it weren't for his companion who saved this kid's life, that arrow might have directly taken Bai Lianzhou's life.
According to Xiao Sissel's understanding, Bai Lianzhou's memory was erased by the Lord of the Town of the World, and he had seen his weapon several times before, but he had not reacted to it, but today, he seemed to have noticed something......
Could it be that his memories have been reawakened by the dissolving?
"Ahem, just take it, what so much nonsense. β
Bai Lianzhou smiled bitterly and replied, "It's weird." β
"A bow weighs only a few pounds, look at your squeamishness. β
The young man didn't answer, suddenly settled down, and said with a smile: "I've seen you use it a few times, and each time I feel that this bow is somewhat familiar, but I can't remember when I saw it." β
"When you see a lot, you feel familiar, don't think about it. Little Sissel hurriedly diverted the topic and said to Rin Ye, "I remember that you used a sword before, right?"
Hearing only a crisp sound of "ding", Rin Ye conjured up a thin sword as cold as ice in his hand.
"Isn't it a little unfair for a long sword to be a short sword?" he asked.
"You're right, it's a little unfair. Little Sissel nodded, pulled out the double blades on his waist, and shoved one of them into Bai Lianzhou's hand, "Help me hold it, it's one-on-one now." β
Bai Lianzhou smiled bitterly again, the long sword against the short knife that his little senior brother said, the long sword has a distance advantage, not a short knife has a numerical advantage......
This Jensen Sissel is really straightforward and straightforward, and he doesn't drag his feet at all.
"Don't you have a scabbard for this sword? The last time I saw you, I took a rag and wrapped it around. Little Sissel taught with some disgust: "Weapons must be carefully protected, and don't let the fine iron age faster than yourself." β
"When I got it, it looked like this, something with spiritual power, how could it be so easy to break. Rin Ye held the sword in his hand and shook it casually, "Come on, come on, it's the first time I've gotten up so early to practice the sword." β
Money!
Little Sissel pulled his knife out of its sheath, but after thinking about it, he inserted it back in.
"Forget it. β
"The whole body is soft in the morning, my old bones are not as good as you young people, so I will do it lightly. β
Although he said that, Rin Ye had used a thin sword for ten years, and even if he hadn't met a few top swordsmen, he had always seen and heard some legends, and judging from the posture and speed of Little Sissel's attack, he knew that he was an extremely good assassin.
The opponent took the initiative to fight, how dare he procrastinate, shouted lowly, and retreated to hold his sword.
In an instant, the young man's clothes and trousers followed the sword qi and hunted the wind.
The cold murderous aura dissipated in an instant.
"Ouch, an astrologer, he's pretty good at bluffing. β
Almost at the same time as Little Sissel's epilogue, the thin sword in Rin Ye's hand stabbed out like lightning, pointing straight at his right hand, and then the tip of the sword struck upwardβ
I wanted to directly pick up the short blade in his hand and make him lose some face, but I didn't expect Little Sissel to react quickly, and with a wave of the horizontal knife, he slashed directly at Rin Ye's palm!
But what followed was not the sound of blades clashing, but the sound of sharp fine iron slashing on the scabbard.
The sword collided with the scabbard of Sissel's right-hand sword, and in a flash, the blade sliced a short distance across the somewhat rough and blunt sheath.
Rin Ye was ready for the spiritual power to rebound to himself, and he withdrew his hand very quickly, and the spiritual power on his forearm turned into two invisible winds, changed the stab into a split, and turned a sword flower sharply, and slashed at the shoulder blade of little Sissel.
It's neat, but it's extremely fierce.
But at this time, little Sissel's body stiffened, and his movements froze slightly.
Bai Lianzhou thought that his senior brother's offensive had made the opponent panic, and he had no power to parry.
Unexpectedly, this brilliant assassin once again used a move that he never dared to imagine in his life.
In the next moment, the corner of his mouth smiled evilly, the short knife in his hand shook a shot, and the handle of the knife was directly taken off!
Did he choose to abandon his weapon when the night offensive was approaching?
Bang!
The dagger flew diagonally out of Sissel's hand, slashed through a short, sharp arc, and slammed directly into the hilt of the thin sword.
The spiritual power of the two-edged weapon exploded, and the single blade of the god of war bounced upwards again under this reaction force.
In an instant, the man leaped forward extremely quickly, took the short knife with one hand, then twisted his body again, and quickly reached forward with the other hand, pushing a faint flame in front of the night noodle.
A red light flashed in front of the boy's eyes, one second it was black and red metal like ashes, and the next second, it became a bright yellow flame in red.
Complete a series of actions in no more than two seconds. When Bai Lianzhou looked again, little Sissel had already dodged behind Rin Ye and put the blunt scabbard on his neck.
"Hmph, stinky boy......"
After finishing speaking, the short knife was already dark.
"You want to test my spiritual power? Little Sissel whispered warningly, leaning into Night's ear.
"You ......" Rin Ye nervously looked down at the short knife that had no spiritual power, he didn't even know how his opponent managed to dodge quickly and then quickly withdraw his spiritual power in a very short time limit.
"Don't draw a knife. Little Sissel withdrew his arm and said with a wicked grin.
And what frightens Bai Lianzhou the most is that no matter what opponent this man faces, he can be so calm. When he fought with him before, he saw through the cooperation between himself and the puppet, and only used two tricks. This......
Faster.
was so fast that with just one look, he studied the senior brother very thoroughly, and even counted his ideas to the death.
The swordsmanship that the senior brother is usually proud of has no effect in front of Jensen Sissel, and he will even guess the opportunity in advance, avoid the past, and then fight back quietly.
As he said, no need to draw a knife!
As he said, "lightly attack", if the god of war is unsheathed with two blades, with Rin Ye and himself, he is not the opponent of this "god of war" at all.
"You two brothers are quite alike. β
The teacher seemed to be making a closing statement.
"The moves, it's a bit similar, the movements are quite fast, the spiritual power, no experience, too weak. Little Sissel continued: "But you astrologers, don't learn these skills of assassination and fighting, you don't have to go to the battlefield to fight. β
Rin Ye bit her lip and said indignantly, "No, come again!"
