Beta saw Fletcher confessed, and smiled, "Sophia, come back."
Sophia giggled twice, turned into a black smoke again, and got into Beta's shadow.
Fletcher felt his back loosen for a moment, and then saw Sophia's black smoke passing by his side and entering the shadow under the feet of the little white face opposite.
Shadow Assassin!
Fletcher suddenly felt like breaking out in a cold sweat.
Whether they are assassins, assassins, or thieves, they are all very good at stealth and sneak attacks. But in general, invisibility is not a real disappearance, but a visual loss caused by a special ability. It is also appropriate to use the word visual fraud to describe it.
For 'invisibility' in the traditional sense, you can use traps, traps, or raising some animals with a keen sense of smell to break the restraint, or you can use magic perception and other techniques to find out, but it is not easy for assassins who know how to incarnate as shadows. Essentially it has no substance. Smell, organs, etc. will not have any effect on shadows. I heard that true vision can restrain shadow assassins, but Fletcher has never seen anyone with true vision, or a spellcaster who knows similar skills.
In addition, because the shadow assassin usually possesses the master's shadow, this is actually a very dangerous behavior. As long as the assassin has the intention to do harm, the master will be killed without a chance to respond.
Shadow Assassin is a double-edged sword, as we all know.
Beta is not worried at all... It would be strange for Sophia, whose loyalty has reached full value, to harm him.
Seeing the cold sweat on Fletcher's forehead, Beta smiled inwardly, then threw a small purse to Bart, and said, "Go to the stables and buy some horses, ones that are good at long distances, and a carriage , it doesn’t need to be too luxurious, but it must be bigger.”
Bart nodded, took the money bag and left.
Fletcher looked at Beta and took a slight breath. His eyes were a little unwilling: "Can you reveal some background?"
"Tell you, so that you can see if you have a chance to deal with me?" Beta raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "Actually, you don't need to care too much, as long as you don't challenge my bottom line and perform your duties as deputy head , I won't trouble you."
Fletcher laughed dryly, becoming more and more afraid of Beta. He felt that the little boy in front of him was simply a cunning old man who didn't eat soft and hard things, and didn't eat oil and salt.
When Beta and Fletcher were confronting each other, among the group of diplomats in uniform, there was a woman about nineteen years old who looked at the two with interest.
Her face was not very pretty, and there were some freckles near her nose, which slightly spoiled her already not outstanding appearance. Fortunately, she has a peculiar intellectual temperament, which adds a lot of points to her.
She almost laughed out loud when she heard Beta say 'you can try', but fortunately she covered her mouth in time. But Shirley suddenly turned her head and glanced at her, scaring her back behind an acquaintance.
After a while, she stuck her head out and watched the development of the situation.
She saw Beta facing Fletcher, a well-known bully in the royal city. Not only did she not have any scruples, but she turned back forcefully. She also saw the sexy Sophia, standing on horseback, holding a dagger against Fletcher. Letcher's nape.
This scene made her feel very relieved, and at the same time she felt that Sophia was both sexy and handsome, a perfect woman.
Then she became Sophia's fan girl all of a sudden.
As time continued to pass, Fletcher sat on the horseback, not daring to move casually, nor did he dare to order the cavalry to leave, so he could only wait obediently.
Soon the sun rose into the mid-air, and the scorching sun shone down. It didn't take long for Fletcher's full-body armor to become hot. He felt that he was in a steamer, and the hot sweat kept flowing from his forehead. The body came out, and it didn't take long for his hair to be almost completely wet, and his whole body seemed to be scooped out of water.
He really wanted to go to a shady place to rest, but Beta looked at him with scorching eyes, as if trying to find his fault and trouble. Besides, he didn't want to lose to the boy on the other side.
But then Fletcher discovered that the little boy opposite him didn't have a drop of sweat on his body. This little discovery made Fletcher's mood even worse.
Just when he felt that he was about to suffer from heat stroke, he heard the little white face on the opposite side say, "What are you doing standing there, you don't know how to take a rest in a cool place?"
When Fletcher heard this, he almost fainted with anger. However, he still rode his horse to the shadow of the tall building on the side of the road, turned over and dismounted, and then two knights trotted over and hurriedly helped him take off his full body armor.
After the restraints were removed, Fletcher finally felt a lot easier. He looked at his cavalry, these subordinates in full body armor suffered the most, and all of them looked like they were about to collapse from the heat. The diplomatic officials are fine, they wear light clothes, even if they are exposed to the sun for an extra hour or two, they will not have any major problems.
That little boy is messing with himself on purpose! Fletcher stared at Beta, thinking, if he was given a chance and knew the details of this guy, he would have to kill him.
At this time, Fletcher's confidant also took off his full body armor. He ran over and whispered beside Fletcher, "Master, that guy is not easy to mess with. We'd better listen to him in the future."
"Why, Toka, do you know his details?" Fletcher asked angrily.
Toka blinked his small eyes, because the sweat fell into his eyes, and there was a little pain: "I don't know his details, but I have seen him. You should know, young master, that I used to be the eldest prince... His Majesty's Cavalry During the few days when the king fought for the throne, I saw this man. He was the subordinate of the second prince and caused a lot of trouble to His Majesty the king. Our cavalry team at that time died in sevens and eighties. , I got lucky and survived."
Fletcher was very surprised: "I have a grudge against His Majesty the King? Then why did His Majesty appoint him as the head of the envoy?"
At this time, another cavalryman came forward, his whole body smelled of sweat, which made Fletcher extremely unhappy.
But what the cavalryman said immediately aroused Fletcher's interest.
"Master, I don't know that little boy, but I know the woman who held you hostage just now... I'm from Dongfeng County, and I recognize her. She is the wife of the city lord of our Dongfeng City. I remember her name is Sophia."
Winterwind? Fletcher has a certain understanding of Uther, the lord of the real power faction. He knows that he loves his wife very much, and he also knows that his character is extremely impulsive and irritable.
Since he is not the opponent of the little boy Beta in the front, how about a detour from the side
A noble lady of the city lord ran away with a little boy, and she was still in his shadow... What a good rumor this is. If Uther, the bitter master, finds out, what will happen
Fletcher grinned.
