The female assassin is almost dead, but she can't die yet. At least Su Xiao won't let him die. A hidden mission related to the main mission has not yet been triggered, especially this is a reward mission.
"Don't let her die."
As soon as Duke Li Lin finished speaking, several soldiers stepped forward, one of them stepped on the female assassin's head, while the others provided emergency treatment to her.
"We're being targeted."
Mrs. Yuelang sat aside leisurely and took a sip of black tea in her cup.
"The first target of the assassination was the old guy, but he escaped last night."
When Duke Li Lin said this, he glanced at Su Xiao.
"Since the second target is the angry lion, the third target is probably the White Dragon Duke."
Su Xiao checked the female assassin's injuries and found that she would not die in a short time.
"Impossible," Mrs. Moon Wolf objected. After thinking for a moment, she said, "No one will go to his manor to assassinate him. It is impossible to succeed."
"Then the third target is you."
"..."
Mrs. Yuelang frowned and stared at Su Xiao, after a moment.
"Well, it's probably me."
Mrs. Moonwolf is smiling, but her smile is terrifying.
Obviously, there are all smart people present. A group of forces is assassinating the Duke. At this time, it has been successful once. The old Duke knew this before last night, so he withdrew the guards in the manor. This move made the assassin
The person directly loses the opportunity.
Perhaps because they surprised the assassins, they chose to take action this morning, targeting Duke Gilbert, the Raging Lion, who was in charge of the military. The result was a success.
Not only that, this group of assassins did not leave the winery, but waited for opportunities to assassinate other dukes who might appear. For these two assassins, being able to get rid of the Raging Lion Duke was the meaning of their lives.
If you kill another Duke, even if you die, you will die for honor.
The situation in the city of Arans is becoming more and more complicated. All the powerful Dukes are dead. Is it that far away from assassinating the Saint King?
Obviously, the behavior of these people directly conflicts with Su Xiao's mission. God knows in what form this group of people will assassinate the Saint King. If powerful explosives are used to blow up the Saint King's heart, Su Xiao's mission
will fail.
After being promoted to the sixth level, Su Xiao was no longer able to completely exempt from forced execution. He had once obtained permission at a low level to exempt himself from the penalty of forced execution for a failed mission. This was limited to forced execution caused by a failed mission, but that permission was only 1~
Level 5 has the 'absolute authority' effect.
This 'talisman' made Su Xiao feel at ease for a long time, but after being promoted to the sixth level, this amulet was no longer so useful. Although it could exempt him from one forced execution, it would also deduct 50% of all his attributes, which was tragic.
Once the Saint King's body is gone, Su Xiao will lose 50% of all attributes, and what's more terrible is that Xi will be allowed to grow.
What should I do if I encounter a conflict during the mission? Go and negotiate with that unknown force? Don’t be ridiculous. It’s stupid to entrust your own safety in the hands of an unknown force.
Since it conflicts with the mission, Su Xiao decided to find out that force, eradicate them all, and then find an opportunity to kill the Saint King.
In other words, this is a God-given opportunity. If the unknown forces are eradicated, several dukes and even the Saint King will relax their vigilance towards Su Xiao. Then, it will be an opportunity.
Thinking of this, Su Xiao's thinking was completely clear.
"I will take this person away."
As Su Xiao spoke, she motioned to Eminem to pick up the female assassin.
"Can."
"no."
The attitudes of Li Lin and Mrs. Yuelang were completely opposite. After seeing Su Xiao's ability, Li Lin agreed with Su Xiao to take over the matter.
"reason."
Su Xiao and Duke Li Lin both looked at Mrs. Moon Wolf.
"Li Lin, what are you thinking about? He is the old guy's subordinate. You have forgotten what the old guy did. Even if you forget, Li Lin, I will not forget it."
Mrs. Moon Wolf's words made Duke Li Lin silent for a moment.
"Let's decide by voting."
Duke Li Lin proposed a relatively ‘fair’ way.
"Can."
Bang!
Mrs. Yuelang smashed the red tea cup in her hand on the table. She was very angry, but she still wanted to remain elegant. She stood up and left. Before leaving, she glared at Su Xiao. Her eyes did not show anger, but were a little seductive.
"I'll leave this to you."
After leaving these words, Duke Li Lin also walked outside the castle. He had decided that in the near future, he would stay as far away from Su Xiao as possible. He could not die yet. There were many people who needed him. This was about to be completely completed.
The decaying empire also needs him to maintain it. He cannot die before choosing a successor. Even if there is only one head left, he must maintain the country. This is the glory of his family.
"Everyone...ran away?"
Baha sighed. In his feeling, the two dukes just ran away.
"Who knows."
Su Xiao breathed a sigh of relief. Among the five dukes, there was no one with the level of Old Lion or Harold. As for the Saint King, he still couldn't figure it out for the time being, or there was no chance to test it at all. The Saint King had always been
Sleeping, which is a bit confusing.
The soldiers in the castle stood upright. Gunpowder technology in this world was in its infancy. Most gunpowder firearms were fancy, so the soldiers used cold weapons.
Su Xiao rubbed the center of his eyebrows lightly, walked around the winery for a few times, and then left. Originally, he wanted to try his luck to see if anyone would jump out and assassinate him, but unfortunately, he was not lucky and no one assassinated him.
At the same time, five kilometers east of the winery, a group of men and women in black robes gathered here. Four of them had a particularly unique aura. They were all contractors, contractors of Death Paradise.
"What the hell, the arrangement was too thorough! Guiying was caught like this? Didn't you say that she is the top five assassins in your organization in terms of stealth ability? That's it? Top five?!"
The contractor with a loud voice had a broken voice, and just like his heart, he could not calm down for a long time.
"This guy is... a contractor?"
A female voice came. The strange thing is that the conversation between these four people did not avoid people in this world at all. In fact, they turned on the 'negotiation protection mechanism' and blocked part of the conversation to prevent triggering the punishment mechanism, even if they were deducted.
Some death gold coins are also a big loss.
"Have you ever seen a contractor who can climb to the position of Duke?"
"Uh~ That's right."
"What to do next?"
"Of course we need to get rid of him first. If we don't get rid of people in power like this, sooner or later we will be picked out one by one."
After a brief discussion, these dozen people decided to make some plans before assassinating the Duke named Cuculin.
…
In the city of Arans, inside a two-story private house, this is the property of the old Duke. In addition to the two floors on the surface, there is also one underground floor.
In the balcony hall on the second floor of the house, Su Xiao was sitting at the dining table, and the female assassin was sitting opposite Su Xiao. She seemed to have confusion written on her face.
The female assassin is named Guiying. She has been trained since she was a child. She has only one purpose, to assassinate Duke Gilbert of the Raging Lion. This is her life-long mission. After completing this task, she will die without regrets.
From Guiying's point of view, if she is captured alive, she will be treated inhumanely, but she is not afraid, because she is ready. After her death, she will return to the embrace of the gods, and the statue will always stand in the Hall of Valor.
Then, the ghost was not tortured. After the enemy used a drug to control part of her mobility, he released the iron rope on her body, allowing her to move freely, and even provided her with exquisite food.
"Sister, don't worry, we are not bad people. Look, we will give you something to eat."
Baha's bird tried his best to put a smile on his face.
