Chapter 383: Infiltration 2
This rescue mission is very important, and the boss of the Presbyterian Church personally taught Xia Dingchen face-to-face.
Binhai Group deceived people too much, and Chairman Lu Long repeatedly tolerated it. But it's not because the new world will be afraid of Marina City.
Joke, the new world will rule over hundreds of cities in the world, hundreds of thousands of cultivators, how can they be afraid of just one coast.
It's just that the elder is kind-hearted, and the demon clan is the enemy, and he can't bear to see humans killing each other.
Unexpectedly, Binhai didn't know what to do, and he kicked his nose more and more, and his recent behavior was even more unbearable. The headquarters of the New World Society in the imperial capital sent a telegram to Binhai a few days ago, warning Binhai City to rein in the precipice as soon as possible, otherwise, it would not be unpredictable.
Binhai replied with one word: Get out!
You say that you are angry or not angry, everyone is a decent person, how can you say that you will scold people.
So Xia Dingchen was sent to deal with the preliminary affairs, of course, he must be the only one in the follow-up, and there will be big moves in the new world. Xia Dingchen was chosen because he had a lot of experience in doing dirty work, and he went deep into unfriendly cities several times to eliminate those disobedient city lords for the Elders.
It's not that his strength is really strong enough to single-handedly take on a cultivator in a city, he is an assassin, he is good at assassination, and after he succeeds, he flies away without having to touch him. No matter how powerful the city lord is, it is inevitable that there will be times to relax, and this is his chance.
Even if the task is to assassinate Yu Xiaoyue, Xia Dingchen thinks that he is thirty percent sure.
It's just that he didn't expect this operation to save people, which is a bit beyond the scope of his business. But the elder sent it himself, and he had to deal with it with a twelve-point mental response.
Xia Dingchen's figure blended into the night, and the patrolling city guards even passed by less than three meters away from him, and they didn't notice anything wrong in the slightly swaying shadows of the trees under the street lamp.
This was his talent as an assassin, and it was enhanced countless times by his special stealth mind technique. When the mind is in operation, his presence will be greatly reduced, and it will be difficult for even cultivators who are stronger than him to notice him.
It's kind of like breathing. The difference is that the Breath Gathering Technique cannot use the supernatural power when it is running, otherwise the burst of spiritual power will suddenly be revealed. However, Xia Dingchen can also use powerful techniques in stealth, which provides the possibility for him to skip the level of killing.
Of course, today's task doesn't have to be so troublesome. It is well known that there is a serious shortage of cultivators in Marina City. It's just that Xia Dingchen never thought that the sentry guards in this special prison were actually ordinary soldiers.
Do they really think that just by relying on a mere Divine Light Sword, ordinary people can act as cultivators? Xia Dingchen sneered in his heart.
Marina's divine light sword, he is very familiar with it. It's not just a weapon, it's an iconic twist.
Because the divine light sword can not only kill demons, but also kill people.
Prior to this, cultivators were almost invincible in front of ordinary people. Because ordinary people didn't have any conventional means to break through the True Yuan Shield of a high-level cultivator.
Invincible cultivators are free to slaughter ordinary people as long as they want to.
This is the foundation on which the practitioner is above the mortal.
The appearance of the Divine Light Sword shook this foundation.
Mortals equipped with divine lightsabers also possess the ability to kill cultivators.
The key is that this unique magic weapon is not rare, and after the Binhai authorized the production of other cities, the production capacity has been terrifyingly increased in a short period of time. I believe that in time, it is not inconceivable that ordinary soldiers will be fully equipped.
The cultivators of the New World Society were very conflicted about the Divine Light Sword for a while. On the one hand, the Divine Light Sword enhanced the abilities of ordinary soldiers, and the pressure on cultivators to face the attack of the demon clan was suddenly reduced.
On the other hand, when mortals generally possess the ability to kill cultivators, will cultivators still be able to maintain their current high status?
Within the New World Society, including the entire group of practitioners in the world, a wide range of discussions began. But in the end, there is no need to worry.
The reason is simple:
Mortals equipped with divine lightsabers, although their attack power is good, their defense is still zero.
Cultivators above the blue coat can rely on their own True Yuan Shield to take a few shots of divine light. But the attack of a cultivator is simply impossible for mortals to resist.
Therefore, the practitioner is still a high being.
The two sentries who were now guarding the gates of the prison were meticulous. Their right hands pressed on the hilt of their swords, and their focused expressions made Xia Dingchen feel extremely ridiculous.
The strength of a cultivator is not something that can be replaced by a mere divine light sword. Maybe the Divine Light Sword can give mortals that little bit of confidence, but such confidence is not worth bullshit in front of absolute strength.
Thinking of this, he saw the route of the patrol, and his body fluttered silently, like a dim shadow approaching the prison gate.
A blackened silver needle slowly sticks out of its fingertips.
Xia Dingchen didn't care about the divine light sword in the hands of the city defense army, with his figure, ordinary people trying to track his figure were doomed to be in vain. He could have unarmed the patrol and the guards at the gate if he wanted, but this was a secret infiltration, and he didn't want to make too much noise.
This silver needle on the fingertip can silently pierce the soldier's jade pillow from behind, and through the agitation of the true element, it can instantly destroy the higher consciousness of the mortal soldier.
These two soldiers will continue to stand here like walking corpses, without arousing the suspicion of others. Until the next day, he died of a headshot.
And he can calmly enter the prison inside.
This one is quite clever.
Because if you really touch these two sentinels, there will be few people in important positions, which will inevitably cause alarm. If a practitioner happens to be passing by and notices that the two sentries at the gate are missing, he must have guessed that an enemy has infiltrated.
But the soldiers stood in place, breathing and vigorous, and few people could detect their anomalies.
The silver needle was already very close to the sentry, Xia Dingchen's stealth was quite good, and the sentry who was about to be in calamity was not the slightest alert. Xia Dingchen's hand is very slippery, just like many times before, there is no possibility of missing.
But the Assassin's instincts made him feel that something seemed wrong.
These two sentries felt a little different from the patrolling soldiers. Caution made Xia Dingchen stop the silver needle and stand closer to observe more carefully.
After a moment, he understood where the awkward feeling came from. It turned out that the two sentries did not wear heavy black body armor like the other city defense troops. Instead, the poor ones were all dressed in khaki coarse cloth singles.
Xia Dingchen smiled dumbly, although he didn't make a sound, but in his heart, he despised the coastal cultivator group to the extreme.
Sure enough, the prosperity outside is fake, made for outsiders to see. The rations of ordinary soldiers have been exhausted, and even body armor cannot be fully equipped.
On the battlefield of the Reiki Age, body armor is no different from papier-mâché. But it can bring psychological comfort to mortal soldiers.
Although the castle under the command of the Shinsekai is dominated by cultivators, the basic equipment of ordinary soldiers, such as body armor and helmets, can still be guaranteed. Binhai claimed to have fully resumed work and production all day long, and the supplies were abundant to be exported everywhere, but the real situation was that even such basic war materials as body armor were seriously in short supply.
Sure enough, it was gold and jade, and it was ruined outside.
Xia Dingchen shook his head, and with a cold gaze, he stabbed the silver needle from behind at the sentry's jade pillow acupoint.
This silver needle is as slender as a hair, and it is so sharp that it is impossible for mortals in the flesh to resist it. What's more, this sentry was not alert, and the tip of the needle was already quite close to the scalp less than three inches, and he didn't know it.
A sinister smile appeared at the corner of Xia Dingchen's mouth.
Zheng !!
At the critical moment, a violent spiritual power fluctuation suddenly erupted at the tip of the needle. The silver needle seemed to hit an invisible wall, breaking at Xia Dingchen's fingertips.
