The assassin's reaction was quick, and in the second of shock, the flash of light in his hand had already swept towards the figure like lightning.
This blow didn't have the astonishing aura of the sneak attack on Elisa before, but it was more concise and effective, and its power was not much less powerful.
The mysterious figure didn't move, and was about to be pierced by this blow. Suddenly, the stream of light stopped, as if a poisonous snake was suddenly pinched seven inches.
It turned out that it was an awl with a snow-white edge and a strange texture faintly visible on the handle. The tip of the cone was easily held by one hand, no matter how hard the assassin tried, he couldn't advance or retreat half a point.
The assassin's full blow was easily received by the opponent, his heart froze, and he immediately gave up his weapon. At the same time, a ball of flames burst open, and then under the cover of the flames, his figure quickly retreated like light smoke. far away.
In fact, this escaping figure in light smoke is just a phantom, the assassin's real body has already sneaked away in another direction without a sound, and quickly changed into a cloak during the sneaking process.
The cloaked man swaggered around a few blocks and came to an alley. He finally lost that sense of danger. Just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, he felt something extra in his hand, an awl, and the tip of the awl was crushed by an awl. Hold it casually with one hand, no matter how hard you exert yourself, you can't advance or retreat.
Could it be just... hallucination? The assassin had a creepy feeling, knowing that the strength of this mysterious enemy was unfathomable, and he didn't care about hiding anything. The tip of his tongue quickly swallowed inaudible incantations, and the sharp cone suddenly shot out a dazzling light: "The light of extinction !"
With the sharp cone as the center, the burst of light spreads out, like a small sun, bursting out with devastating and intense light and heat.
To the Assassin's horror, everything within the range illuminated by the "sun" did not burn and evaporate as expected, and the surrounding space was filled with strange and incomparable power. The Extinction Light seemed to be trapped in a quagmire and was quickly swallowed up.
The assassin felt the uncontrollable power pouring towards the opponent through the awl in his hand, and his body trembled continuously. Finally, the opponent stopped the force of devouring and let go of his hand.
Holding the awl, the assassin staggered back a few steps, but did not escape—the strength gap between himself and this mysterious enemy was too great. It was unrealistic to escape or counterattack. It would be better to retain his strength, and at least end his own life as a last resort. possible.
"Who are you?" The assassin finally spoke. It was a woman's voice, a little hoarse. I don't know if it was the original voice.
"I should be the one to ask this question." The other party seemed to be smiling, and although he couldn't see his face clearly, he could feel the deep meaning contained in that smile, "'Light of Extinction' is a top-level light magic, right? It seems When you attacked that girl just now, it seemed that you deliberately hid the most commonly used attack methods and power characteristics?"
The female assassin was silent for a while, and asked again: "Aren't you her?"
"Her? That girl? I don't know her," the man said with great interest, "Just as a dinner guest, I'm a little interested in what happened suddenly, especially the serial killing scheme you set up, which can be called ingenious." .First use the failure of the group of assassins to attract everyone's attention, but when everyone relaxes their vigilance, they suddenly attack the killer. If it were me, it would be equally difficult to guard against."
The female assassin covered her injured shoulder and shook her head: "If I am facing a real holy-level powerhouse, I will not be able to achieve my goal, even if it is a sneak attack. Moreover, the so-called killing situation was set up by herself. I just had a temporary idea and cameo a small role."
Although the female assassin's face was covered by a layer of strange power, the man's red eyes seemed to penetrate the cover, looking directly at her true face and even her heart. The woman felt naked, secretly Shocked: This mysterious person must be a true saint-level powerhouse, and has even reached the peak of the holy level. In the human world, this kind of powerhouse is already the peak existence that everyone needs to look up to. Unless it is those who are closest to the gods on the legendary peak, such as...
"It turned out to be a game within a game." The man seemed to have realized something, and nodded: "If... I said, you can trade the whole story for a chance to leave, what would you choose?"
The female assassin replied decisively: "I would rather die."
"I can see your determination from the look in your eyes, then..." the man held his chin and thought for a while, "Okay, you can go."
The female assassin was a little startled, and then showed suspicion. Let her go so easily? Could it be that the other party is really just a passerby, asking curiously
"By the way, the price still has to be paid..."
The man's figure appeared in front of her in an instant, and the female assassin felt her body was completely out of control just as she was about to make a move. Immediately afterwards, a strong man's breath approached, and before she had time to react, her mouth was covered by the man's lips. Blocked, trembling all over, the whole person seems to have fallen into a dream.
After waking up, the man and the strange illusion disappeared without a trace, as if it was really just a dream just now.
The female assassin subconsciously touched her wet lips, gritted her teeth, covered her shoulders, and disappeared into the night.
At the same time, Chen Rui from the Temple of Light on the other side touched his lips, revealing a dumbfounded look—under his gift, the incarnation outside the body can have a relatively independent consciousness and act alone as another person. This kind of consciousness has an inviolable behavior, but it also has some of Shura's original character traits, such as... the behavior just now.
The feeling of close contact was transmitted to the subject through some kind of wonderful connection, which made Chen Rui quite speechless.
In the Temple of Light, Paul had already heard the news and rushed to take Elisa into the room for emergency treatment. Outside, Wesley and other Knights of Light were under strict protection, and even Sorendon was not allowed to approach.
This assassination incident was very bizarre. At the moment surrounded by the dark sky, Chen Rui clearly felt that Eliza's spiritual power was peeping at him. Chen Rui didn't know where he had exposed his flaws. At that moment, what Elisa paid most attention to was not the assassin, but him, or maybe the assassin was not strong enough to make Elisa cautious.
When Chen Rui found out that one of the assassin's targets was the fat priest Mana, he had several thoughts in his mind, but he didn't make a move. Mana's goal is to be the bishop of Yangshao Royal Capital. In the past two days, because Chen Rui has successfully "appreciated" Elisa, Mana's mind has become more active. He is secretly happy but also afraid of this partner. The wings became too hard to control, and he asked Chen Rui to go to Yangshao King's Capital Church to serve as a knight of light, and even faintly revealed the meaning of using a contract as a threat.
How could Chen Rui have time to accompany Fatty to get involved in the church's power game, and blackmail is even more of a joke. Now that Elisa is spying on him, he might as well stand by and watch.
The second time he assassinated him, he didn't expect it in advance, but the assassin Demon King's peak strength couldn't hide his feeling. After discovering that the assassin's target was Eliza, Chen Rui decisively issued a reminder this time.
Elisa's status is special. Once he dies here, everyone present will be inseparable. It will definitely affect his plan to infiltrate the White Cliff, so he made a decisive decision. As a result, both Elisa and the assassin suffered. Saved my life.
The information returned by Shura made Chen Rui a little confused. Judging from the mental fluctuations of the female assassin, he should not have lied. This time it was not a serial killing round, but a round in a round. Elisa manipulated it by herself, the female assassin just cleverly mixed into Elisa's layout, and took the opportunity to launch a killing blow.
So, the real murderer who killed Mana was Eliza? It's too late for Mana to please Elisa, let alone offend him. What's more, Elisa really wants to kill Mana. With her strength, she can just move her finger. She borrowed a "Dagger Brotherhood" right here and now. What is the purpose of doing it in the name of
Also, who was in charge of the Dagger Brotherhood attack on the way to Garden City
With all kinds of doubts, Chen Rui set his eyes on the VIP building guarded by several light knights in the distance. With a thought, his body suddenly became transparent, integrated with the night, and disappeared.
In Paul's room, there was a great deal of light.
The two figures sat cross-legged one behind the other, Paul's left hand emitted a cloud of golden light, which merged into Eliza's naked back, where there was a terrible wound. This process was slow and cautious. Sweat dripped from Paul's forehead, and Eliza's skin began to twist strangely, as if a snake was wriggling inside. Eliza gritted her teeth and tried her best to endure the pain. They all secreted cold sweat, and the speed of peristalsis became more and more rapid, moving to a cut from the right wrist, and suddenly ejecting yellow juice.
The juice fell on the ground, and those specially made hard wooden boards were instantly corroded. The yellow juice gradually turned red, and finally turned into blood. Paul was relieved and withdrew the golden light, and a soft white light appeared on his right hand. The wound on Lisa's back gradually healed, and eventually even the scar was no longer visible.
In terms of healing, light magic has incomparable magical effects that water magic can't match, but healing magic is not omnipotent, and there is a time limit. Continuous use will not only greatly reduce the effect, but also destroy the body's self-healing ability, causing hidden injuries , unless there is a special constitution such as the body of light.
This time, Elisa was seriously injured. Although with the help of Paul, the impeding power in her body was eliminated, but the light magic could only heal her external wounds, and the internal wounds still needed a long period of recuperation to heal.
"Okay... thank you." Eliza's tense body softened, "Help me get dressed, I'm exhausted."
Paul stood up, helped her put a robe on her, and stepped back.
"Is he so scary?" Elisa's voice was a little weak, "Wipe her sweat, I really don't know how you are a man, you don't like women at all."
Paul took out a towel and wiped the sweat off her face. His eyes fell on the pair of peaks on the girl's chest, which were already quite large. He turned slightly and moved away.
Elisa was a little dissatisfied with his ignorance, and was about to speak, but Paul had already said: "What's the matter with the assassin this time? Such a terrifying power of the red scorpion, could it be a holy assassin of the Stealer Guild?"
"Hmph!" Speaking of this matter, Eliza shot a frightening cold light in her eyes, "It's not the stalker union! Although she deliberately used attack methods and power attributes that she is not good at, trying to deceive others, she couldn't hide it from me. !"
Paul's expression moved slightly, as if he had thought of something, but he didn't speak in the end.
