The Sword and The Shadow

Chapter 627: I don't want to be an assassin

Views:

"Sir." Snow knelt in front of Regnar: "My lord, Snow should have sacrificed his life to repay the kindness he gave to Snow, but Snow has only had one belief since he came to the Military Intelligence Agency, and that is to kill Jofer. Therefore, I have private contact with His Highness Alexander, and His Highness has indeed avenged my great revenge today."

"..." Regnar looked at Snow who was kneeling on the ground, but he was speechless, betrayal, betrayal again. Alexander and Snow betrayed him at the same time. Alexander went for that king's throne, and Snow went for his lifelong desire for revenge.

"Sir, please allow me to make the final remedy." Snow stood up and handed a teleportation talisman to Regnar: "I know that I will not be able to survive in the empire after taking revenge, so I secretly purchased it in the south. We built a secret hut and stored a lot of dry food and fresh water. Although the south has experienced a wave of death, the hut is hidden and will not be destroyed. My lord, you might as well take Lady Annelotte there first. As for the future, You can make plans for the way out."

"You still want me to believe you now?!" Regnar kicked Snow to the ground, causing the rune in Snow's hand to fall away and fly far away.

But Annelotte glanced at Regnar helplessly, and with a thought in her mind, she used the hand of the mage to pick up Snow's runes.

"If he doesn't really want to help you, there is no need for this man to be here." Annelotte explained after seeing Regnar's puzzled look: "If he doesn't show up tonight, it will be easier for us to be plotted."

"Miss Anne is right." A sinister voice joined the conversation: "Director of Military Intelligence? Hey, if it weren't for the sake of the Moon Shadow Thieves Guild, and if there wasn't such a careful assistant as Miss Anne, you would have died long ago. I don’t know how many times.”

"My lord, let's go!" Snow's face suddenly turned pale when he heard the voice. He knew that the person who just spoke was the most terrifying assassin of the Royal Supervision Office, Zhu Hun. Alexander had let Snow meet him once or twice. In Snow's view, this assassin may not be as strong as Regnar, but when it comes to intrigues and fishing in troubled waters, Regnar is no match for him.

"Can you leave?" The figure of Soul Killer vaguely appeared next to Irene and Enelise. Snow was right. Although this Soul Killer is not as powerful as Regnar, he does things quite insidiously. He understands that this As long as he subdues any one of Regnar's three women, Regnar will inevitably become his own. Among these three women, except Annelotte, the other two are easy to deal with.

However, Zhuhun still underestimated Annelotte's reaction ability. When Zhuhun said the first sentence, Annelotte had already opened the low-temperature field. She only slightly lowered the temperature of the nearby space, but this It was enough for Annelotte to sense the location of Soul Killing with her abnormal body temperature. Therefore, when Zhu Hun just showed up and was about to take action, Annelotte blocked him back with an ice wall.

Blocked by the ice wall, Soul Killer originally wanted to take a detour, but before he could make a move, Annelotte flew over with an instant stun spell that was enhanced by various super-magical skills. Zhu Hun felt his eyes go dark, his mind began to spin, and he almost vomited.

"Let's go!" Regnar was not slow to react. He understood that Zhu Hun was just the first one to arrive and try to keep them. The person who was really responsible for chasing them hadn't arrived yet. The best choice at this time was to escape as soon as possible. .

Annelotte nodded, she pulled Inelise, and Regnar pulled Irene, and they immediately left Merindl Square under the cover of night.

"He ran pretty fast!" Zhu Hun finally recovered from his dizziness. He turned slightly sideways as if there were eyes behind him, avoiding Snow who was trying to sneak attack him from behind.

Xue Nuo didn't expect Zhuhun to escape his fatal blow. He couldn't hold back and lost his balance. Zhuhun took advantage of the situation and kicked him on the butt, causing Snow to stumble and fall to the ground.

"Don't even think about chasing..." Snow struggled and tried to fight back, but before he could get up, one of Soul Killing's feet had already stepped on his head.

"To be honest, although you are a bit weak in strength, you are actually very smart." Zhuhun stepped on Snow's head and asked with some confusion: "You are a good player in assessing the situation and making decisions according to the circumstances, and you are also very wise. You chose the right master, but I don’t understand why you would betray your master at the last moment for a fool?”

"I don't have a master. Neither Alexander nor the Empire is my master." Squeezed by the soles of Soul Killing Shoes, Snow struggled to twist his facial muscles and said, "If there really is a master, it can only be Reg." Master Na. The reason why I betrayed you is all to avenge my sister."

"Yuzhong?" Zhuhun increased his strength on his feet.

"No, I just... want to... repay your kindness... to me. Ugh!!!"

Snow was still struggling to hold the dagger and tried to fight back, so Zhuhun cut off Snow's right hand very simply. The sleeves of his black robe were very wide, and no one could see what kind of weapon he was holding.

"Favor?" Zhu Hun smiled coldly: "Assassins shouldn't have feelings."

"Assassin?" Snow gasped because of the severe pain and said: "From the beginning... to the end, I... I just want to live well... with my sister. I just want... to be an ordinary... ordinary person with my sister. We are just ordinary people! I don’t want to lose my feelings! I don’t want to become an assassin! I just want to be a pair of ordinary siblings with my sister! Sister... Ah... Lian... "

"Very good then. I can help you realize half of your wish." Zhu Hun raised his leg that was on Snow's head and waved again, so Snow's head rolled to the side of the square. He looked at Snow's head and murmured: "I reunited your brother and sister, but not as humans, but as ghosts."

Outside the city of Merinder, in a dilapidated church, Alian suddenly felt panicked. She huddled in the corner of the church, feeling a little overwhelmed, tears falling down her cheeks. A few days ago, Snow came to see Miss Annelotte after she suddenly disappeared. He gave Alian a space pocket filled with various daily necessities, and then told her to let him wait for him in this church.

"After five days, if I still haven't come back, then take these things to the Northern Province alone." I have repeatedly asked Snow the reason for doing this, but in the end Snow just gave this sentence and left. .

Today is the fourth day that Alian has been waiting for Snow. Although there is still a whole day left, Alian doesn't know why the longer she waits, the more scared she becomes. Alayne doesn't know what happened to Merindle, but she trusts Snow.

"It's okay, it's okay, there is still one day, he will definitely come." Alian said to herself silently.

But she actually had a premonition that that person would never come to her again.

A few minutes later, the Imperial Plaza, which originally had few people, was surrounded by heavy troops from the Imperial City Defense Force. The person leading them was none other than the second prince Alexander.

"Your Highness." Zhuhun knelt down on one knee in front of Alexander: "The mission has been completed."

"Okay..." Alexander looked at Snow's body, a look of sadness or something flashed across his eyes.

"Your Highness, Regnar is still running away, you should pay attention." Seeing Alexander in a daze, Zhuhun couldn't help but remind him.

Alexander glared at him as if he was annoyed and snorted: "I know, there's no need for you to remind me."

After speaking, Alexander took out a magic instrument that looked like a compass. He looked at the compass and was stunned again.

"Your Highness..." Another person beside Alexander seemed to be urging him, but his reminder was not as direct and annoying as Zhuhun.

"Sorry, let me make another sacrifice for the empire..." Alexander thought silently, and then pressed a button directly above the compass.

A magical light flew out from the compass, and it was gorgeous and dazzling in the night sky like a comet crossing the sky. But in fact, what this "comet" draws is a parabola, and it will eventually fall in a certain corner of Melinder.

"Follow that light and go!" Alexander pointed to the direction of the "comet falling" and said to all the city defense guards.
