Assassin’s Chronicle

Chapter 400: Internal strife

Views:

As the sun set, the day's hard battle finally came to an end, but the energy of Zeng Green City became very low. From morning to night, the attacks of the undead creatures never stopped. Although An Fei decided to send the more than 200 priests to the reserve team They also entered the battle, but the casualty rate on this day was astonishingly high. In addition to the casualties in the previous few days, the number of mercenaries has been reduced by one-third, and the number of Bright Knights and Priests has also been reduced by hundreds.

Everyone knows that undead creatures only show more powerful combat effectiveness at night. It is so difficult during the day, let alone at night. The reason why those necromancers invest so many troops during the day is just to consume the combat effectiveness in the city. , the real decisive battle will definitely break out at night.

However, there is a saying that goes well, misfortune lies behind blessings, and misfortune lies behind. When the sun set, good news finally came. Knight Fernando had arrived with the Shield of Light Legion, and brought a message with an electric pigeon. A letter telling the mercenaries in the city that they must persist one day and one night no matter what.

An Fei was sitting in the room, teasing the electric pigeon on the table. This kind of exotic pigeon is relatively small, only bigger than a sparrow, but it flies extremely fast and is very humane. The disadvantage is that it cannot fly long distances and is only suitable for To transmit messages over short distances, Anfei considered whether he should discuss with Fernando to buy some electric pigeons to form his own message network. As for the specific content of the letter, he did not read it and was not qualified to read it. Just like those light knights and priests were not qualified to command mercenaries, if he asked for it, he would only get a rejection. After all, the contradiction between the two parties was there. Those bright knights and priests Bugui missed the opportunity to ridicule An Fei.

There was a knock on the door, and An Fei raised his head: "Come in."

Ye opened the door and walked in. He closed the door behind him and listened quietly for a moment before slowly approaching An Fei.

"Is something wrong?"

"Sir, let's take action immediately!" Ye said softly: "It's hard for me to survive tonight relying on those light knights and priests. It's better to put the bet on Warner. If we are disabled and want to develop again, It’s not that easy to get up.”

"Fernando has arrived nearby, I'm worried..." An Fei pondered.

"Sir, since Fernando allows us to guard for another day and night, it proves that he is incapable of helping us. It can even be said that it is unknown whether he can defeat the undead army!" Ye said anxiously: "We must protect ourselves. If Fernando is defeated , we must have enough strength to rush out! Sir, we used to have more than 4,000 mercenaries, but now we have less than 3,000. If there are big losses again tonight, I'm afraid..."

"Ye, there are many people with mixed eyes. Killing those light knights and priests is not a trivial matter. If word spreads... I think we should wait first."

"Sir, are you worried about those mercenaries? In fact, they don't have any good impressions of the Holy See. Besides, can we do it secretly?"

An Fei suddenly winked at Ye. After a while, someone knocked on the door again: "Is Master An Fei here?"

An Fei raised his chin, and Ye walked over and opened the door. A light priest and several light knights stood outside the door with smiles on their faces. Two of the knights are acquaintances of An Fei. One is Hilde and the other is Martin. Hilde had a grudge against him, but Martin was the internal agent sent by Julande to the Holy See.

"Sir, can we come in?" The light priest smiled.

"Please come in, please come in." An Fei stood up slowly: "What are you..."

"Sir, I have here a secret order signed by the Pope!" The priest of light said straight to the point, and then his eyes fell on Ye: "Sir Ye, are you..."

"Secret order? For me?" An Fei was a little surprised and nodded to Ye, who turned around and walked slowly out the door.

"Yes, sir." The light priest stretched out his hand and took out an envelope from the space ring.

An Fei smiled and reached out to pick it up, but the direction he picked it up was a little off. He didn't receive the envelope, but he touched the hand of the priest of light. Then his hand flipped over like lightning and grabbed the hand of the priest of light. , pulled down, and kicked the light priest's private parts. The light priest was pulled and kicked, and his whole body flew in the air. As soon as he screamed, An Fei's knee fell again. It hit him hard in the face, knocking back his screams.

Martin pulled out his long sword and stabbed forward with all his strength. The person he stabbed was not An Fei, but his colleague Hilde. Hilde never expected that Martin would attack him. The long sword had just been pulled out halfway, and Martin's long sword had already It penetrated from his back and came out from his chest.

At the same time, Ye turned over and shot back. The long sword in his hand drew a curtain of light and pierced the neck of a bright knight. His swordsmanship was extremely ruthless. This sword cut off half of the bright knight's neck. Cut off.

These light priests and knights came to An Fei with bad intentions, but they should not bring Martin with them. An Fei is so smart, he only fights with horses.

After a quick glance, he understood what Martin meant. As a result, the person who came to kill was killed by An Fei, the highest priest of light, who could not even release the magic scroll in the envelope.

There were only two light knights left. An Fei didn't think they could pose any threat. His eyes fell on Martin. He really didn't understand why these light priests and knights suddenly wanted to deal with him. He hoped to find an answer from Martin. .

"Sir, be careful!" Martin screamed sadly, and rushed towards An Fei with open arms. At this moment, the iron door was instantly smashed to pieces, and a dazzling sword light shot into the room, aiming directly at An Fei.

Martin mobilized all his fighting spirit and stood in front of An Fei. The sword light passed through his body. The next moment, Martin's body had turned into countless splashing blood clots.

"Let's go!" An Fei shouted. He already understood that there was a peak powerhouse among his opponents. He was worried about Ye. If Ye didn't overestimate his capabilities, he would be killed instantly like Martin!

"Where are you going!" A chuckle came from outside the door, and another sword light shot straight at An Fei.

Ye was very wise and turned around to face the window, smashing the window frame and throwing himself out. A fire shield appeared on An Fei's left arm, and he faced the sword light without fear. There was a loud bang. An Fei's mental power was unable to control the violent elemental vibration of the fire shield, and the fire shield was completely shattered. , and his body flew out backwards and crashed into the inner room.

"Suzanne has been led to the North City by us, so..." A figure walked outside the door, walked slowly into the inner room, looked at An Fei standing with his sword, and said calmly: "You die!"

This time, as if he felt that the sword light was not powerful enough to kill An Fei, the figure did not release the sword light and swung his sword to slash An Fei down.

In terms of skills, this sword is very simple, but if the speed and power exceed the limit, it can no longer be described as simple. The dazzling fighting spirit made the entire inner room brighter than daylight. The turbulent air actually tore the bed curtain behind An Fei, and the rising dust hit the wall with a loud bang.

An Fei's counterattack was also very simple, which was to parry. In fact, with his body skills, he could completely avoid this sword, but he chose to parry. Because he needs to understand where he is compared with the real peak powerhouse.

There was a loud bang. The bed behind An Fei could not withstand the invisible pressure and collapsed instantly. The vases, boxes and other sundries in the room were all reduced to pieces. The fire sword in An Fei's hand also became blurred, making the two of them To everyone's surprise, the stone slab under An Fei's feet shattered, revealing a dark hole. An Fei, who suffered a huge impact, fell downwards involuntarily.

There is a large secret room underground in the inner room, with several floors. It was originally used by the original owner to store treasures, but An Fei never discovered it.

"Huh?" The figure seemed a little surprised, but he quickly jumped into the hole. Perhaps after two confrontations, he judged that there was a certain gap between An Fei and himself, so he made such a big move. If two people Their strength is almost the same. If you continue to follow them so rashly, you may fall into a passive situation.

An Fei stood upright, his mental power was being released rapidly, and the blurry fire sword quickly became clear. Seeing that the opponent was rushing down, he was not in a hurry to launch a counterattack.

"Is this what you prepared for yourself? Not bad, very secretive." The figure looked up and down in the secret room and said with a smile.

An Fei remained silent, his inner breath flowing faster and faster.

"Desperate? Don't want to know who I am?" The figure smiled, with a cat-and-mouse look in his eyes.

"I don't want to." An Fei replied calmly: "Although you are a peak powerhouse, it's a pity that you don't know how to kill people."

"You understand very well? It's a pity..." The figure imitated An Fei's tone and said calmly: "You, a very understanding person, will be killed by me today!"

An Fei slowly raised his sword and told the other party with his movements, come on! When he was a killer, he would never talk nonsense with his target. He would tell the target endlessly why he wanted to kill you and how you did it. This was meaningless. On the contrary, delaying time will also allow the target to seize the opportunity to turn defeat into victory!

"You still have fighting spirit? Yes, yes, and I can feel that there is a very strange power in your body! Is that the power that can make people become saint-level powerhouses?" The figure said with a smile. In fact, he had something in his heart. It feels like a fist hitting cotton. From the beginning of practicing fighting spirit until he became a peak powerhouse, he has been under the supervision of his teacher and has rarely been exposed to the outside world, so he is a bit naive in verbal exchanges and specific performances.

"You talk a lot of nonsense!" An Fei said unceremoniously. Although delaying time would be beneficial to him, he didn't want to delay because he didn't want to always rely on Susanna.
