Assassin’s Chronicle

Chapter 98: Hunter and prey

Views:

Where the grass is low and cattle and sheep can be seen, it was only after seeing it with my own eyes that I realized that the wind-blown grass and low cattle and sheep should be changed to 'present' cattle and sheep. This can more accurately describe the scenery of the grassland.

The wild grassland is densely covered with giant grass that is two meters high. Whenever a strong wind blows, pig beasts numbering in the thousands or tens of thousands will appear in the grass. This is a unique creature of the wild grassland, and it is also the most carnivorous monster. creatures to survive. The pig beast has a very gentle temperament and rarely attacks other monsters. When attacked, it will run around and feed on green grass every day. The vast grassland is their inexhaustible granary, and the pig beast has a super strong reproductive ability. This can prevent them from becoming extinct after being hunted by various monsters. In fact, nature in every plane is balanced, at least until it is destroyed by intelligent life. If there are no magical beasts on the grassland, pig beasts will one day fill the entire grassland, and then the wild grassland will no longer exist. If it exists, it will become a desert sooner or later.

Although the Wild Grassland is very large, the mercenaries who rely on the grassland for food are already familiar with it. They are familiar with the territory of high-level monsters and the forbidden areas that must not be entered. Unless those who rashly break into the grassland have strong strength, they have long since become fertilizer for the grassland.

Fortunately, with von Merger acting as a guide, An Fei and others found the target without much effort. It was a mercenary team of nine people. Under the cover of the Eye of the Sky, they could clearly see that they were in one place. In a place with relatively sparse grass, the corpses of hunted monsters were sorted out. Among them were seven men and two women. Except for one of the seven men, who was a magician, the rest were swordsmen. Of the two women, one was a magician and the other was not. It is a rare sacrifice.

An Fei approached the opponent quietly. Being able to hide his aura was his biggest advantage. He didn't need to worry about being noticed by the opponent. When he could faintly hear the voice of the mercenary team, he took a few steps back and took out the space ring. He picked up two pieces of high-grade water-attribute magic crystals and tapped them gently, and a crisp sound came out.

Soon, An Fei noticed someone walking towards this side, and then someone shouted: "Hey, kid, what are you doing?"

An Fei turned around in shock, seemingly shocked, and even forgot to put away the magic crystal in his hand.

"Hey, you..." The speaker suddenly paused. His eyes fell blankly on the magic crystal in An Fei's hand. He had never eaten pork and had seen pigs run away. Although their mercenary team was very powerful, It was very ordinary, but he had also seen high-grade magic crystals. An Fei could see the greedy look on that man's face.

Five more people walked out of the grass, and everyone's eyes were focused on An Fei's hand. The magic crystal meant wealth, which meant that they had been living and drinking for a long time, which meant that they would have bragging rights in the future. I don’t know how many mercenaries have spent their entire lives unable to obtain a small piece of high-grade magic crystal!

"Boy, where did the magic crystal in your hand come from?" The leader should have secretly sent a signal, and the remaining people were slowly outflanking An Fei.

An Fei took a few steps back cautiously: "I don't need to tell you!"

"Friends, don't get me wrong, we are the Tigers of Ta'ao mercenary group, have you heard of it?" Another person said: "The third young master of our mercenary group is going to have a wedding soon, and every member of the mercenary group We all have to prepare gifts. We are worrying about gifts. You... If possible, I hope you can sell us the magic crystal in your hand for five thousand gold coins! How about it? You didn't suffer a loss! The most popular one The price of high-grade fire attribute magic crystal is only this!"

The price of five thousand gold coins is quite fair, but the problem is that the speaker's entire outfit combined would not exceed two gold coins, yet he actually asked for five thousand gold coins. Who would believe it

Several people showed kind but nervous smiles while slowly approaching. An Fei took a few steps back, always keeping distance from each other: "What on earth do you want to do? This is something my friend gave me for safekeeping temporarily. , I can’t sell it!”

"What's your friend's name? Maybe we know him." The man's smile became warmer, but there were beads of sweat on his head because of nervousness.

An Fei put the magic crystal in his pocket in front of several people, and then suddenly flipped over and rolled into the grass. The figure only shook for a moment and then disappeared.

"Holy shit!"

"This guy is quite clever!"

"Boss, I'll send a signal to all the brothers in the group to come over. We must catch that kid no matter what!" A man shouted while taking out a magic scroll from his space ring.

In order to take advantage of the strength of their numbers, the large mercenary group issued the same magic scroll to every member. When they need help or are in danger, they release the magic scroll, and other nearby members will rush there as soon as possible. Support, this magic scroll

Magic power can also be released, which is very convenient.

The first person who spoke to An Fei gave him a slap in the face: "You are so fucking stupid! The brothers are here, how will we divide them up when the time comes!"

"Yeah, that guy has no fighting spirit at all, he can't run away!"

A small-scale manhunt was launched quickly. The two magicians in the mercenary team released their floating skills and flew in the air, looking for traces of An Fei. The others were divided into a fan, and they could no longer care about it. It’s time to sort out the captured monsters. In comparison, those inferior magic crystals are meaningless. As long as they can grab the magic crystals from An Fei’s hands, it will be enough for them to enjoy it for several years!

An Fei walked silently in the grass like a cat. He came with Chris and others, but before taking action, An Fei sent Chris back because he wanted to do it himself. No matter how well-planned the action is, there is a possibility of failure. If the other party has the opportunity to release the magic scroll asking for help, and a large number of mercenaries from the Tao Tiger Mercenary Group come from all directions, he still has a great chance. Escape, but the chances of a group of people are slim. What's more, it's not just the mercenaries from Ta'ao's Tiger Mercenary Group who are coming. The four super mercenary groups have agreements with each other. When a mercenary group's mercenaries are in danger, the other mercenary groups must give their full help. , plus the spread of magic signals is very large, and this place is less than forty miles away from Blackwater City. By then, we may have to face a large encirclement composed of hundreds of mercenaries!

Finally, An Fei stopped retreating, huddled on the edge of a bush, and quickly took off his clothes, revealing the powerful outfit underneath. The so-called cool outfit is actually a set of camouflage uniforms. Of course, this was modified by An Fei himself. There is a hood on the back of the camouflage uniform. When An Fei gently pulled up the hood, most of his face was buried deep in the hood. If An Fei remained still, even if someone was watching An Fei It is difficult to spot An Fei even if he passes five or six meters behind him.

An Fei took out another dagger from the space ring. This was not refined by Hagen, but a stainless steel dagger that An Fei bought from a blacksmith shop for ten gold coins. It is not suitable for use in the jungle. Long sword, it would be too wasteful to use the modified dagger, so An Fei prepared a second weapon.

The friction sound from walking was getting closer and closer. An Fei gently picked up a stone from the ground and clasped it in his fingertips. When he could see the other party's figure from the corner of his eye, An Fei flicked it with his fingertips. , the stone shot out and hit the grass on the other side. A rustling sound was heard, and the man's sight suddenly turned.

An Fei's figure floated out like a ghost and passed by the man. At the same time, the dagger held in his hand drew a graceful curve and swept across the man's throat.

Blood spattered, and the man fell to the ground softly before he could even make a sound. However, he had not yet died. Due to suffocation, his fingers actually opened the wound on his neck and dug at it desperately. Ten fingers were already covered in blood, and he could touch his own throat... This feeling was very strange, and perhaps he would not be able to forget it even after he got to hell.

An Fei walked back like a civet cat, and the dagger reached down and pierced the man's chest. The human heart is very big. For the well-trained An Fei, even if he closed his eyes, he would not stab the wrong place. , before An Fei could pull out the dagger, the man had stopped twitching, and his life had completely left him.

An Fei listened quietly for a moment, and then quietly pushed towards the second person. However, an accident happened at this time, and An Fei had to give up the target and choose another person. God knows what kind of stimulation the guy got, and he suddenly started shouting.

"Hey! Boy, I saw you!" "Come out quickly! Otherwise I will set a fire!" "Boy, the wild grassland is not a fun place. If you hide and hide again, you may be eaten by monsters!"

This guy is so noisy...the problem is that he is loud enough for his companions to hear, and if the noise suddenly disappears, it may alert others.

This mercenary team thought that they were hunters, but they didn't know that they had already become someone else's prey. The aura on An Fei's body was too weak. How could the mercenaries who had been through life and death care about an ordinary person! The target was observing the movement in front of him wholeheartedly, rummaging through the grass very carefully, and stabbing him with his long sword from time to time. He didn't even notice An Fei approaching quietly from behind.

Approaching to a distance of about one meter, An Fei suddenly stretched out his left hand, went around and covered the opponent's mouth and nose. The dagger quickly passed across the target's throat. The target's body trembled violently for a few times, and then His body became weak, and An Fei took the back of his neck and gently put him down on the ground. Two magicians flew through the air, but the grass was too dense and they couldn't see what was happening below.
