Dick saw the other party rushing over again. Regardless of his injuries, he picked up the dagger and charged towards the swordsman. wwW,QuanBen-XiaoShuo,cOmEven if the opponent didn't use sword energy, the sword still knocked Dick's dagger into the air. Dick's wrist was bleeding profusely, and he didn't know whether he had injured his muscles or bones.
With such a blockage, Salin's spell has been finished. On his hand, a rich blue light lit up, and a white line broke through the air and went straight to the swordsman's face.
The swordsman reluctantly raised his sword, but the steel sword broke with a click. The ice pick penetrated his head and exploded behind him. The cold breath spread, and the young noble was stunned.
The green light in Salin's hand did not dissipate, and the second ice pick shot out more quickly. The noble young man opened his mouth, looked at the bowl-sized hole in his chest, and suddenly fell down.
"stop!"
A familiar voice sounded, but it was already too late. The young noble's heart was broken, and even the gods could not save him. Salin felt someone approaching from behind. Dick fell to the ground and struggled to get up, but was unable to do so.
Saleen turned around, and the green light lit up on his fingers again, but this time it was not the ice cone technique, and there was no time. Saleen could only quickly prepare for the acid splash, but he was not sure to stop the people approaching behind him.
As a sharp whistling sound approached, Saleen received a heavy blow on his wrist, and the magic dissipated instantly. The person pinched Salin's shoulder, and Salin felt pain in all the muscles in his body.
"Come with me."
Only then did Salin see clearly that the person who captured him was Ulysses, the swordsman of the city lord's palace.
As soon as the battle began, Saleen severely wounded three swordsmen, and the parade crowd became a mess. Ulysses kicked Dick on the waist. Dick got up with a groan and looked at Ulysses.
Ulysses glanced at him coldly, then glanced at the three injured swordsmen on the ground, and pulled Salin away. Dick broke out in a cold sweat. He immediately understood what Ulysses meant.
Taking out the second dagger from his arms, Dick endured the pain and stabbed the necks of the three injured swordsmen again, and then chased in the direction Ulysses left.
Ulysses led Salin into a dark alley, then let go. He said: "Salin, you are in trouble."
"Who is that person?" Salin managed to calm down and asked in a low voice. At this time, Dick had stumbled into the alley and came to Salin.
Ulysses looked at Salin's changed appearance and quickly thought about how to deal with it. Soon, he made a decision and said to Salin: "He is the son of Count Sufonso of Yaoyang City. Hurry up. If you go out of town, your teacher won’t be able to protect you, so buy a horse and run as far as possible.”
Salin felt like he was hit hard because he killed the earl's son, who was also the earl of Yaoyang City. Yaoyang City is the largest city within a thousand miles, and Count Sufonso has a lot of troops. The worst thing is that there is a magic tower outside Yaoyang City, and a sixth-level magician is sitting there.
Although this sixth-level magician cannot kill people on behalf of the count, his teacher cannot protect him, otherwise it would be tantamount to provoking another high-level magician.
Salin's heart was in chaos, and he could not accept this fact. Just when he was about to get on the right track and start practicing real magic, he suddenly got into such a big trouble.
Yaoyang City is not a small place like Ceylon City. There are many swordsmen there, and there are at least several hundred people who have reached the level of swordsmen. Although I just killed a junior swordsman, it was just close to mastering it. , the other party died very frustrated. Ulysses was also a junior swordsman, and he was defeated with just one move.
Dick knelt down with a pop, lowered his head and said, "Salin, I'm sorry."
Ulysses suddenly pulled out his sword, intending to silence him. He wanted to kill the thief just now, but to escape the scene, he had to let the thief handle the funeral affairs.
Salin stretched out his hand to stop Ulysses and said, "This is my friend, I trust him."
Dick lay on the ground facing Salin and refused to get up for a long time. He resisted the urge to cry. Salin said that he was a friend. Since he was a child, no one had looked at him, except Salin. After Salin became a student of the magician, he thought that Salin had become like the people in Ceylon City. Now Salin not only prevented the swordsman from killing him, but also said that he was his friend.
For many people, the word friend is used to betray someone. But for another kind of person, a friend is someone you can entrust your life to.
"Let's go. I can't blame you entirely for this. I was impulsive." After Salin finished speaking, he bowed to Ulysses and said, "I don't know why you are willing to let me go. One day, I will come back to thank you." It's yours. Go and tell the Viscount that I took his money but couldn't do anything, and I'm sorry for him. I won't let his money go to waste. I'm leaving now. What about you?"
"Count Sufonso is visiting the city lord's mansion. The faster you leave, the better. I will go back and report you about the murder. But your appearance has changed now. I will only tell you about your previous appearance. No one in the mansion knows it yet. Before you left, , give me a try."
Ulysses pointed at his arm, and Saleen, knowing there was no time to delay, gritted his teeth and released an acid splash. Ulysses groaned, his arm was instantly burned by the acid, and white smoke billowed out.
Seeing Ulysses leave, Salin said: "Dick, let's go."
Dick looked up, guilt written all over his face. "Salin, if I am caught, I will not survive. I will not say a word about you. If I run away, I will go to the Tangulas Empire and never return to Ceylon City."
After Dick finished speaking, he kowtowed heavily on the ground, stood up and left.
Distraught, Salin pulled out the scarf, covered his face, and left the alley. He headed directly east and hurriedly escaped from the city of Ceylon. Rushing back to his ancestral home, Salin stood outside Jason's laboratory. After hesitating for a moment, he knocked on the door.
Ulysses slowed down his pace and walked back to the City Lord's Mansion. When he entered the City Lord's Mansion, he quickened his pace and rushed directly into the living room, shouting: "Sir, something happened!"
Viscount Guge was talking to Count Sufonso when he saw Ulysses rushing in with disheveled clothes and obvious injuries on his arm. He asked gently without using a blaming tone: "Ulysses, why are you injured?"
Ulysses immediately fell to his knees, facing Count Sufonso. "My Lord Earl, something happened to your young master. I arrived late and failed to protect him..."
Gu Ge and Su Fangsuo were stunned at the same time. Count Sufonso was not much older than Guge, about forty years old. But it seems that he is younger than Viscount Guge. Count Sufonso has a pair of dark eyes, and the pupils seem to be covered with a layer of water vapor. This is a phenomenon that only occurs when his family has practiced the sword energy to a certain extent.
Hearing that something had happened to his son, Count Sufonso's body instantly burst out with powerful murderous intent. If Ulysses hadn't been kneeling, he would have fallen down on his own.
"What's wrong with him?" Count Sufonso stared at Ulysses, the moisture in his eyes getting heavier.
"The young master was killed by a magician. I happened to see it when I went there and was hit by a magic spell." Ulysses pointed to his arm in fear.
"Where did it happen?"
"The east entrance to Plaza Twelfth."
"Take me there." Count Sufonso stood up, as proud as a mountain.
"grown ups… "
"What's up?"
"I know the murderous magician."
"What did you say?" Count Sufonso grabbed the air and actually lifted Ulysses up. His black pupils quickly contracted, staring into Ulysses's eyes.
"Lord Earl, listen to me..."
Ulysses was extremely shocked. Count Sufonso's sword energy could not only escape from his body, but could also control objects. Is he already a sword master? Isn't it wrong to let Salin go? But the work has been done, so we can only grit our teeth and persevere to the end. If he is seen through, I am afraid that this matter will be blamed on myself, and Viscount Guge cannot be implicated.
He tried to speed up and told Salin's origin. Count Sufonso heard that Salin's teacher was a fifth-level magician. He gently put down Ulysses and pondered.
A fifth-level magician, he is no match. There are not many guards around this time, so if there is a conflict, it is inevitable that they will suffer immediate losses. But if we go back to Yaoyang City and ask the great magician to repair the book, the murderer will probably have escaped long ago. Is Guge willing to offend a fifth-level magician for himself? If Gugeken helps and gathers the army and mercenaries from Ceylon City, it is possible to kill the magician.
Viscount Guge had a stern face. He was good at calculations. As soon as Ulysses said it, he roughly guessed what was going on. He didn't think that a magic apprentice could kill four swordsmen and still escape, but Ulysses had already let him go, so he didn't have to pursue the case. Ulysses was selling a favor for himself.
He coughed, interrupted Count Sufonso's thoughts, and said: "Don't say this, Ulysses, you go deal with the scene, Chris, take everyone with you, seal the city gate, if you encounter Salin, If he resists, kill him directly. Lord Earl, I will accompany you to see the magician and explain the situation to him."
That's what he said, but Ulysses had just stated for a long time, and Salin might have run out of the city long ago. Move all your people away, so you don't have to directly conflict with the magician. He accompanied the count to see the magician. After all, the magician had lived in Ceylon City for three years. He had not offended anything and would not lose his life.
As for the final result, it's none of your business.
"Thank you. Snow, take our people and follow me." Count Sufonso temporarily suppressed his anger and greeted the people who had been standing behind his chair.
The man named Snow has a pale face and droopy eyebrows. The nails on his hands are dark in color. He is thin and has no armor. After listening to Count Sufonso's words, he swayed and disappeared outside the living room.
Advanced assassin! Viscount Guge felt a chill on his back and an indescribable awkwardness all over his body.
On the battlefield, assassins may not be of much use, but in normal times, the lethality of these assassins is terrifying. Fighting alone, swordsmen of the same level are no match for assassins.
Viscount Guge followed Count Sufonso as if nothing had happened, calculating the gains and losses in his heart. What benefits would he get if he helped the count capture Salin
no! Those few thousand gold coins before, as well as the favors Ulysses sold this time, will definitely bring greater profits in the future. As long as Salin is not a fool, he will always be rewarded.
If Salin is really killed, Magician Jason will probably take his grievances out on himself. Even if Count Sufonso makes some compensation, it is impossible to move the magic tower from Yaoyang City.
It's better to focus on the present, Viscount Guge sighed in his heart.
