Mercury Ball.
This ancient organization, which has been passed down for many years, has always regarded the "prom host" of the past generations as the highest leader.
And the only leader.
The dance host of the Mercury Ball has always been extremely mysterious. Even the Color Assassins don't know how each dance host is selected and how he appears.
From ancient times to the present, thousands or even tens of thousands of years, the host of each generation of Mercury Ball will suddenly disappear, and a new generation of ball hosts will suddenly appear.
But without exception, they all have the power to summon assassins of all colors.
And the hosts of every generation wear delicate masks like flowing mercury on their faces.
For thousands of years, only the mercury mask has never been replaced and has been lost.
The old man wearing an orange mask behind the round table sounded a little impatient.
"How long will it take for the ancient things under Tulip Manor to be taken out? The world is very dangerous now, and we need to find a way to leave this world."
The young man under the green mask looked at the dance host and asked coldly:
"As long as we get it, we will be stronger and may even reach the 'Apocalypse', right?"
The current host of the ball still wore a white robe and a mercury mask, and his face could not be seen clearly.
He nodded slowly, his tone calm.
"good."
The assassin under the yellow mask, "Odd Yellow Pearl" finally couldn't help but speak.
"Why are you so sure? Is there any documentation to support it? What are the things buried under the Tulip Manor?"
Today is different from the past. This meeting is very important. The three color assassins were even physically summoned by the "ball host".
They did not disobey the authority of the moderator to convene.
But these people are really upset right now.
Because of the coming crisis of world destruction, the murder of "Purple" and the betrayal of "Azure", the color assassins all realized that the Mercury Ball was in danger.
"Blue Hidden" has been confirmed to be betrayed by the temptation of Babel, and the assassin mentor "Purple" has also died as a result.
There are only three color assassins left in the Mercury Ball.
"Orange Phantom" is a thin old man. He is the fastest among the assassins. He can often turn into phantoms and disappear in an instant.
"Odd Huang Zhuyu" is a short middle-aged man. He has been responsible for solving the mercury ball's expenses. He has great power and is proficient in curse spells. He is a master in this area.
"Green Jade Misty Rain" is a young half-elf with a weird and twisted appearance. He is the most vicious of the several color assassins and the only transcendent who has reached the "Monarch".
The people present, except for the three color assassins, are the core "ball hosts" of the Mercury Ball.
Mercury Ball can lose any color assassin.
Even if all the Color Assassins die, the Mercury Ball will not be destroyed.
But the "Prom Host" cannot be lost. He has the power to summon assassins of all colors, and can also directly receive the assassination ideas of "guests" from across the country.
He negotiated remuneration with his "guests" through projection, and then drew up a monthly assassination list.
Without the existence of the host, there would be no "Mercury Ball".
The host of the dance slowly opened his mouth to explain:
"The ancient things under the Tulip Manor come from the 'Mysterious Heart'... That is the extraterrestrial god that gives power to all extraordinary items in the multiverse... Things that belong to it naturally possess unpredictable and huge power."
"In the multiverse, there are 'ruin relics'."
Ruins relics
Several color assassins present were stunned for a moment, completely unable to understand what the ruins relics were? Is that a relic too? A kind of relic of civilization or... something above it
The host of the ball had dull eyes and was silent for a while, then continued to explain very patiently: "The so-called ruins relics are things of a higher level than civilization relics."
"The twenty-seven highest-ranking extraterrestrial gods in the multiverse correspond to the twenty-seven ruins relics. Their 'weight' is far heavier than the relics of civilization, and they are the first to fall to the 'bottom' of the multiverse. In Noah’s world.”
"According to my estimation, at least five ruins relics have fallen to Noah's world... This is something that is unimaginable in other worlds in the multiverse."
At this moment, what the "host" said was too bizarre and beyond cognition, making it difficult for the color assassins to understand.
"There are twenty-seven gods in the world?"
There are only twenty-four gods outside the world that I know of... "Orange Phantom" frowned and asked.
The "host" was silent for a while, then nodded and said: "That is indeed the case. In fact, in addition to the twenty-four powerful extraterrestrial gods that people often know, there are also three higher-level beings, namely 'Origin', ' 'Sacrifice', 'End'."
"The twenty-seven ruins relics all possess part of the power of the gods outside the world. As long as we can get one of them, we will have power that ordinary people can't imagine."
At this moment, the "host" suddenly paused and didn't speak for a long time.
The flowing mercury mask on his face exudes a faint radiance.
"We have guests."
"uninvited guest."
"It's the assassins, not the guests... The assassins from the Tower of Babel are here to kill us assassins."

Inside the Tulip Manor.
Bai Yan in the study room is still using his mobile phone.
The BOSS battle of the new event "Assassin" is about to begin, and a group of assassins are watching the intruding "Night Blade" and "Sword of Demons".
Da da da da da… The sound of subtitles appears.
Ball host: "You... are here because the savior of the Tower of Babel has set his sights on us?"
Night Blade: "In the name of the savior, the sharp blade of the Tower of Babel will sweep you away."
The conversation ends and the war begins.
Bai Yan controlled the "Night Blade" on his mobile phone and took the lead in attacking.
At the same time, he also sent an avatar to the assassin's manor.
For some reason, Bai Yan was still a little worried even though "Ye Blade" had already performed a crushing performance.
Because it was written in the underlying data that in the ancient Mercury Ball, there was a "hidden character" associated with the "Tower".
It is a very dangerous existence.

Assassin's Manor.
Mu Zhen had already fought his way in.
In fact, it didn't take her long at all.
The speed and strength are too powerful, Mu Zhen's combat ability is completely overflowing, and the ordinary assassins in the Assassin Manor have no single enemy.
Two minutes.
Mu Zhen fought from the gate to the inside of the manor. The warm blood behind him mixed with the rain and gradually flowed into a small river.
She stood in the dark hall inside the manor, but she didn't smell the smell of decay. She looked around at the old and abandoned furnishings, then looked up at Mr. "Mushroom" floating in mid-air, ah no, Ms. "Mushroom"... It doesn't seem right either.
"Why... Mushroom, your voice changes?" Mu Zhen only thought the name "Mushroom" was strange.
Demon Sword did not hesitate and answered directly with an indifferent female voice: "My voice... is actually a mirror, which will reveal the deepest desires in every living being."
"The deepest desire?" Mu Zhen fell into deep thought.
Demon Sword continued: "Yes, so during the meeting at the Tower of Babel, my voice will be neither sad nor happy, and will remain extremely neutral... Because there are too many people present, I have to 'comprehensive' it."
Mu Zhen couldn't help but ask: "Then, what is my desire? Why is it simulating this kind of sound?"
Demon Sword replied: "Your most important desire cannot be called 'evil' in the eyes of many people... But in fact, your desire is 'paranoia'."
“…”
Paranoia... Mu Zhen fell into deep thought, or maybe it was obsession. There was nothing wrong with it. If he saw something right, he would move forward without regret or give up.
always like this.
"Well, that's it."
Mu Zhen sincerely felt that this was nothing, and even believed that paranoia was actually a sign of a strong person.
Demon Sword continued: "Other desires that belong to normal humans, such as appetite, reproduction, showing off, and love... are more or less present in you, but they are all squeezed by your paranoia, and it is often difficult to show them."
Mu Zhen was silent and did not answer.
She actually remembered something she owed her family.
Fertility.
"If I give birth to children... as long as I have a few more, I will no longer have to take on the family affairs. Then, I will only need to be loyal to the savior wholeheartedly... "
But she really couldn't find a satisfactory mate in her mind.
First of all, it is best to be stronger than yourself, which is enough to wipe out too many people... Secondly, the personality must be great enough, at least to be a "hero" recognized by the world, and finally...
Just when Mu Zhen was thinking wildly, her body was already moving under invisible control.
The girl slowly stretched out her hand and raised the sword blade in her hand.
The sword was drawn out, and the black light struck the nearby wall.
"Um?"
Mu Zhen calmly looked at the wall and felt that the space here was gradually distorting, as if something that did not exist in the real world had been "hit" by his attack.
She attacks again.
One sword after another, in succession.
After many attacks, the twisted space was completely destroyed, and a dark round hole appeared in front of the girl.
Some kind of extremely weird aura gradually escaped from the black hole.
Mu Zhen's body walked in on its own.
Even though the atmosphere inside the black hole was extremely strange and uncomfortable, Mu Zhen was not uneasy at all. She believed in any choice of the great savior.
The Demon Sword also followed in without saying a word, seeming to be observing the "Night Blade".
Mu Zhen came to a strange secret room with a strong dark atmosphere. In the center of the black secret room, a round table like mercury "flowed".
Sitting around the mercury round table were four people wearing different clothes and strange masks.
They should be the infamous color assassins.
Through the recent supplementation of knowledge about "extraordinary union", Mu Zhen already knew about color assassins.
There has never been a shortage of these people in history.
The "Prom Host" will always suddenly appear in front of someone who has the intention to kill, and try his best to lure the other person to kill. Once the deal is confirmed, the "Color Assassin" and its many "Prom Assassins" will quickly execute it.
As for the reward for hiring a murderer, some are just a large amount of money, and some are even the souls of one's own family.
And more of those who were killed should not have died, and they were even great heroes and good people.
The Mercury Ball has no regard for the good or evil of its hirers and targets.
Many people who are blinded by hatred and are not clear-headed can easily be seduced by the "prom host" when they are extremely angry, leading to huge tragedies.
Seeing the girl in front of him, the host of the ball did not feel nervous at all, and slowly said: "You...are here because the savior of the Tower of Babel has set his sights on us?"
Mu Zhen stared at the man in front of him with an expressionless face: "Many famous tragedies are caused by you... Even children who don't understand anything will kill their parents because of your persuasion impulse... "
"In the name of the Savior...the sharp blade of Babel will sweep you away."
The host of the ball shook his head slightly: "You are wrong. We just gave those people a chance. What they really want to kill is their own murderous intention."
"Why do you blame 'weapon'? Mercury Ball never distinguishes between good and evil, so it never represents good and evil."
Strong words and reason.
Mu Zhen felt an extreme disgust deep in his heart.
The conversation between the two parties ends here, and there is no need to continue.
