Silent Mine.
Werther was still concentrating on examining the documents in the study, and he still didn't take the intruder's matter to heart.
There are a lot of documents, each of which means a lot of money transactions, he has to pay attention to it.
"Well, the land tax of Blytheway Manor has been delayed for two weeks? It seems that it is time to teach them a blood lesson!"
"In a month's time, Princess Anne's convoy will pass by Hegu Town? Well, it seems that those brats have to restrain themselves a bit, so we can't annoy Her Highness the Princess."
"After the incident in Greenstone City, a large number of people in the north moved south. Hehe, what a good opportunity, and I can make a lot of money again."
…
Witte is very proficient in his own "business", and the file processing speed is very fast. He really likes the sense of control of manipulating the fate of others, and he doesn't feel boring at all.
I don't know how long it took, Witt's ears suddenly moved, and he heard a hurried footstep coming from outside the study. From the sound of the footsteps, he judged the mood of the other party: "The footsteps are very chaotic, with different severity, this person is mentally disturbed." Not sure, seems to be frightened. '
As soon as this thought flashed through his mind, there was a knock on the door of the study, and the voice of his deputy Collins came from outside the door: "Chief, something happened!"
Werther was stunned, he hadn't reacted yet, subconsciously, he didn't connect this matter with the intruders who broke into the valley before.
How could such a few people pose a threat to him? Unless all the fighters who came here were level 6 fighters, would level 6 fighters have enough time to trouble someone like him
"Come in and talk."
Werther quickly put down the documents in his hand, and then opened the cabinet in the room. Inside was a set of pure black light leather armor. The material of the leather armor was very special. , it can be fully integrated into it.
This is the Night Owl Leather Armor, a suit, and the magic equipment given to him by that 'big shot'.
Werther quickly took off his ordinary clothes and began to put on this powerful leather armor. Collins also came in, and he said quickly: "Four people came from the valley, and there is no news from anyone in the valley. The people in the mine went round after round, and none of them came back."
"Where's Grint?" Collins asked.
"Grint...he's dead too, the other party seems to have a magician." Collins' voice trembled.
The speed of the intruders was too fast, and no one was left alive, so that the information Collins got was very vague. Even the magician, a key piece of information that could determine the outcome of the battle, he did not fully understand.
"What? The magician?" Werther was taken aback, and immediately thought of running away. The magician was too mysterious, and he didn't dare to confront him.
He didn't know why a magician would trouble him. He was always very careful. He never violated the territory of the East Valley Higher Magic Academy. How could this happen
He couldn't figure it out, but he knew that the most important thing he should do now was to escape and avoid the enemy's edge.
Putting on the hood of the night cat suit, Werther quickly packed up the documents on the table, but there were too many documents, and he couldn't take all of them away. After much deliberation, he could only gather some important documents quickly.
Put the documents into the package, pack it up, and carry it on his back. Werther took out a box in the corner. The box contained the black crystal that the big man had just left, and he had to take it away as well.
That big man is also a magician, he dares to delay other people's affairs, but only this big man can't.
Bringing gems and most of his property, Werther took out a dagger with black light shining. This is also a magical equipment, but it is a weapon that Grint spent a lot of money on for himself.
He put the dagger in the holster on the side of his leg, then he turned to Collins and said, "Go, let's get out of here."
"What about the brothers?" Collins swallowed.
"I can't manage that much anymore."
They are just gangsters, as long as he has money, he can quickly recruit a new batch, and he has plenty of money!
Collins nodded, and silently followed Werther's footsteps.
But the two still underestimated the speed of the intruder. They had just walked out of the study for less than a dozen seconds, and when they passed a long mine road, Werther had to stop.
On the opposite side of the mine tunnel, a strong man covered in glazed light blocked his way. Behind the strong man were four people, a female swordsman, an archer, and two people who looked exactly the same, who seemed to be twins. Brother's skinny teenager. (One of them is Link's stand-in magic, but Werther can't see through it)
"Damn it! Why so fast!" Werther frowned, and his way was blocked.
across from him.
When the archer Gridan saw Werther, he couldn't help laughing: "Look, look, luckily we came quickly, otherwise the mouse would have to go through the hole again."
The other party was carrying a package and was walking in a hurry. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that he was about to run away.
Seeing that the way was blocked, Collins, the deputy, stammered, "Boss, what should we do?"
Werther didn't speak. It's hard for him to protect himself now, so he doesn't have time to care about others.
A pair of eyes only stared at the movement of the intruder on the opposite side, he retreated slowly, and soon, he retreated into the darkness, the effect of the wild cat leather armor appeared, his body perfectly blended into the darkness, and almost disappeared not see.
Collins suddenly found that his leader was gone, and immediately knew that he had been abandoned. Seeing his opponent approaching, he suddenly fell to the ground, screaming loudly: "Don't kill me! Don't kill me! Don't kill me! I don't want to die! !"
"It's really noisy." Lucy looked contemptuous.
Gridan put an arrow on the bow, ready to shoot the coward to death, but Link blocked him with his hand: "Keep him first, he knows many secrets of Werther."
Originally, it would be better to keep Werther, but Werther is not easy to deal with at first glance, and it is not easy to keep his hands in battle. He is most likely to be killed on the spot!
The eyes of the three mercenaries lit up. That's right, this guy is Werther's deputy at first glance. He must know where Werther, a cunning fox, hides his money.
Yake had already walked up to Collins, and slashed at Collins' neck with a knife, knocking his opponent unconscious.
"Werther is gone." Lucy frowned.
"The black leather armor he's wearing is weird. He must be hiding in the dark. Be careful, everyone. This Werther is a very powerful assassin." Link reminded again.
Yake immediately lowered his body, stepped back a few steps, and reached Link.
"Protect Mr. Link." He whispered. As a mercenary, he knew that assassins were a great threat to the magician's life.
Lucy and Gridan all surrounded him, protecting Link and his double in the middle.
in the dark.
Werther stepped back slightly, his eyes fixed on the five people under the dim candlelight, especially the pair of twin magicians who were protected in the middle.
"These guys are very average in skill, but that strong man is stronger. The group of people can break through so quickly, they must rely on the strength of those two magicians. These two magicians don't have defensive magic on them. My chance!"
Werther was cornered, and since he couldn't escape, he could only do his best.
Desperation is about strategy: "As long as I kill the magician, these three stupid mercenaries will never be able to catch up with me, and I can escape. When I leave here, hehe, I will remember you three!"
After he went out, he directly issued a reward for the lives of these three guys. He didn't need to do it himself. Under the stimulation of gold coins, the heads of these three guys would be brought to him by mercenaries in a short time.
Witte's mind turned quickly, looking for his chance to kill.
However, he still underestimated the power of the magician, more precisely, he underestimated Link, he was not a soft persimmon to be kneaded by others.
The apparent thin body is just his disguise.
Upon discovering Werther disappearing into the darkness, Link spends 1 Freedom Point to purchase new magic.
Brightness
Level 0 Magic
Function: Create a ball of light with the same brightness as five candles, which lasts for one hour.
Two points of mana for a level 0 magic is equivalent to lighting five candles in the passage. There is not much mana left in Link's body, but he still has a bottle of low-level mana potion.
He drank the potion decisively, refilled his mana, and learned the magic light at the same time, and then he began to cast spells.
This magic is the normal version brought by free points. The casting speed is about 0.1 second. Link released ten of them without hesitation. In the passage, he threw one every two meters, especially those dark corners. Link deliberately threw one more.
In an instant, the dark passage was fully revealed by the light technique.
Darkness is the Assassin's shelter, but once the darkness is removed, the Assassins will lose their greatest support.
In a dark corner illuminated by the light technique, Werther in black leather armor maintained a lurking posture. When the light came, he stood there blankly, at a loss.
An assassin can't sneak attack, so how can one fight
At this time, Werther was like a woman who was stripped naked in the downtown area, her mood was extremely messy, and she didn't know what to do next.
"Haha, a mouse under the sun!" Gridan laughed loudly, nocking an arrow to the bow, and it was an arrow decisively.
Yake charged directly, but Lucy didn't follow. She stood beside Link cautiously, just in case.
"Ding! Ding... bang... ah~"
There was a mess of noises. Facing the tacit attack of Yake and Gridan, Werther struggled for two rounds. Then, his body was hit by Yake's big iron shield, and his heart was pinched by Lucy. A deep stab with a sword, which is a fatal wound.
Amidst the screams, he flew out like a kite with a broken string, vomiting blood while flying, and flew straight five or six meters away, hit the rock wall of the passage with a 'bang', and then rolled to the ground .
He was out of breath.
Assassins can't fight soldiers head-on. Apart from other things, the weapons of both sides are not suitable for head-on confrontation. One is a light dagger, the other is a heavy iron shield and a war hammer, and it is two against one. It's already very, very good to die after a round.
The message of mission completion has already appeared in Link's vision, and he has obtained the free points rewarded by the mission, and his free points have become 13 points.
"That's the end?" The flamingo mercenary team still couldn't believe it, because the whole process was too easy. Compared with the previous difficult bounty missions, this mission was as easy as a vacation trip.
"No! It's not over yet!"
At first, Link also thought that the task was completed, but he saw a black crystal the size of a fist rolling down from Werther's back. Lying on the crystal was Werther's blood, and black gas continuously overflowed from the crystal.
As soon as these breaths appeared, the temperature of the entire mine passage dropped by many degrees, and Link's flash magic became extremely dim, like flickering candlelight.
What's even more frightening is that these black qi continuously penetrated Werther's nostrils as if they were alive, and Werther's body began to tremble slightly.
"What the hell is this?" Gridan exclaimed.
A dead person actually moved again, the situation is too weird!
At the same time, there was a cave with continuous light and shadow in Link's vision. Link saw that it was a new mission.
Trigger task: Demon removal!
Task content: Kill Demonized Werther.
Mission Reward: 30 Freedom Points.
The higher the free points, the higher the difficulty of the task. Just killing one target will give you 30 free points. What kind of existence is this demonized Werther
Link was startled!
