Chapter 162

Where there is light, there is darkness.

Holy land is a vast and beautiful country, but that doesn't mean it is heaven. Darkness and evil will always breed in the places where human beings gather, even in the holy land.

The city of keha.

This is a city located at the border. On the surface, it is not as serious and serious as a general border city. On the contrary, the prosperous and elegant buildings and rolling villas make it more like a resort. Green mountains and green waters, clean and tidy streets and smooth high city walls make it all look very luxurious and beautiful.

But now, those murderous soldiers have broken the peace of all this.

"Here they are again."

Sitting in the tavern, watching the armed soldiers walk through the street, a man in Black said with a low smile. He raised his glass, took a sip of ale, and then sneered.

"You see, do they look like a pack of wild dogs driven out by their owners?"

"What can I do? After all, it's said that the son of the city Lord died this time."

The woman sitting next to him shook her head. Although she was quite helpless, she also had a smile on her face.

"How did he die this time?"

"I heard that I fell off the balcony and died."

Said here, the woman meaningful point.

"A lot of people have witnessed it."

"Yes..."

Hearing the woman's reply, the man in black sneered.

"Accident Everywhere, our Lord death is really powerful. "

"Keep your voice down, fool."

The woman stepped on the man's foot viciously, making his expression not so strange.

"Don't you know what a low profile is? Although that rumor is only a rumor, it is not just a rumor! Be careful. If you talk nonsense again, you may be the next one to suffer an accident! "

Hearing this, the man's face suddenly became solemn and he didn't dare to speak any more.

It all starts with the "death exchange" half a month ago.

There is a rumored "death exchange" in the city of keha. Of course, it is not a gathering place for necromancers, and it has nothing to do with hell. In fact, it is a gathering place for dark assassins. Assassins from various forces or without will take over the task in the death exchange and then assassinate the target. Of course, all of this is confidential. Those commissions will be placed on specially treated boards, and only the assassin is allowed to take them. Of course, the death exchange also has strict restrictions and hierarchy. Those assassins who complete the mission will be promoted, and then they will be eligible for more dangerous missions.

And just half a month ago, something happened in the death exchange.

An unknown assassin took away a commission to assassinate the city police captain.

It wasn't a big deal, so the assassins didn't care, but just one day later, the death exchange confirmed the captain's death.

It's not about dying on the way home, or disappearing in a dark corner. It's about falling off the city gate after getting drunk, and then landing on the ground with a "crack" in full view of the public.

And then Naturally, there is no such thing.

No one takes this seriously. It's well known that a small city police captain likes to drink too much, because it's normal for him to step on a loose brick and fall to death.

However, to everyone's surprise, shortly after the death of the police captain, the power of attorney returned to the death exchange, and it gave an indication of asking for confirmation.

That is to say, the guard captain was killed by an assassin instead of an accident?

The death exchange can become a famous gathering place for underground assassins in the dark. Of course, it has its own ability. They invited the most powerful prophet on their side, and then predicted and investigated the death of the guard captain. The conclusion is that The captain of the guard did die in an accident.

Since the evidence is solid, it is impossible for the thief to succeed, so the death exchange naturally revoked the Commission. Of course, they didn't find the assassin who accepted the entrustment. At that time, they just thought that the thief was going to take advantage of the opportunity to mix up money, so they deliberately hid his head and show his tail. Especially after the death exchange revoked the Commission, the assassin did not come out to explain it, which made the death exchange more and more convinced that the other party might be lucky. After accepting the Commission, the entrusted target was not careful. Because of the accidental death, he planned to give a reward.

And after that, something strange happened.

In the death exchange, someone took the Commission, and the target of the Commission was killed because of all kinds of accidents. After the death of the mission target, all these entrustments returned to the exchange for confirmation, but the oracle of the exchange investigated the results of each entrustment Accidental death.Once or twice can be regarded as an accident, but a large number of similar "accidents" in a short period of time are not accidents.

The person in charge of the death exchange is not a fool. Their prophet is a legendary mage, but even the other side can't detect any sign How is that possible?

The assassins in this world are very powerful, but they are also assassins after all. To put it bluntly, they are still the kind of existence hidden in the dark and killed by a single blow. The biggest advantage of the assassins here is patience and ubiquitous assassination. They can wait for more than half a year for a goal, always look for the flaws of the goal, and seek to kill with one blow. They can also use their own weapons full of curse or magic power to break each other's defense, but even so, they still need to do it by themselves.

Because of this, these assassins usually rely on special means to conceal themselves. At the same time, the assassins will not take out their own star patterns. In other words, we all know that assassination in this world is assassination. At most, we don't know who the assassin is.

But The assassin's "Assassination" is no longer an assassination.

It's more like a declaration of death.

Of course, at the beginning, the death exchange did not pay too much attention to this "Assassin", because although the Assassins' status was not low, their strength was very weak. If it's a person whose strength is far beyond them, it's not impossible to kill them with this kind of strong strength. At most, it's just bad taste.

However, when a senior mage in a certain family was assassinated, things immediately deteriorated.

Of course, according to the people who checked at that time, the mage suddenly lost control of his magic when he released the magic, and then backfired on himself, leading to his sudden death. From the beginning to the end, the mage showed no sign of being controlled by the spirit, and after the temple God examined the corpse, he also said that the corpse was not poisoned or taking some drugs that interfered with the spirit.

If it was changed to another place, I'm afraid it would only be regarded as a high-level mage's mistake and would not care too much.

But the death exchange doesn't think so.

Because just before the high-level mage died, his assassination Commission was taken away by the "God of death".

When the high-level mage died, the "Commission" was sent back.

For a moment, the whole top management of the death exchange was shocked.

Although in the eyes of ordinary people, an assassin has an advantage over a mage, in fact, the last thing an assassin wants to do is a mage, and he is a high-level mage. After reaching the medium level, the mage will use various methods to store defensive spells to deal with unexpected situations. Whether it's Secret assassination, poisoning, or even if the mage's mind is controlled, it's impossible for the people around him to use him when he's not defending. Once a mage is ready, the assassin will be the next one.

So for those powerful assassins, it's better to assassinate those high-level warriors, swordsmen and even Druids if they want to assassinate a mage. After all, in the face of these professions, they still have a certain degree of assurance, but in the face of mages, they basically rely on their faces to bet whether the other party is really stupid enough to be killed by assassins.

Of course, assassins usually have black faces As for the ending, naturally there is no need to ask more.

But now, is there an assassin who can kill a high-level mage in such a strange and easy way? What's more, no one found out how he did it!

This immediately attracted the attention of the death exchange. Even the three legendary strong men inside the death exchange all went out to stay in front of the entrusted Kanban to find out the assassin.

But then, a horrible scene happened.

Another commission quietly disappeared, followed by "accidental death", the Commission also returned to the death exchange. And the problem is, in the whole process, the three strong men didn't find anything at all!

This means that the other party has evaded the joint search of a powerful prophet, a legendary killer and a legendary thief. They seem to enter the death exchange like no man's land, but no one finds them!

Is this still human!?

With the gradual fermentation of things, the "invisible God of death" appeared in the death exchange, which was widely spread and heard by many people. Because of this, they were even more frightened. Even someone specially bribed the assassin to know what the "invisible God of death" wanted to do, so as to carry out investigation and prevention. But None of this is going to work.

“…………… The invisible God of death

The sheriff in armor raised his head and looked at his white faced subordinates.

"Isn't it a normal accident? You and I saw it with our own eyes

"Of course, Lord Conan..."

Hearing the magistrate's inquiry, the attendant in front of him was also in a cold sweat.

"As you said, we were also invited to the dance, and both you and I, my Lord, saw that Absurd behavior... "Said here, the attendant's face also showed a trace of disapproval. Because the waste son of the dead city Lord was a child, who loved to play with women. In fact, when they went to the dinner hosted by the Lord of the city, they also witnessed how annoying the prodigal son was. After he failed to molest the maid, he planned to take her away by force. In the process, the prodigal son suddenly stepped on the smooth floor and lost his balance. Then he bumped into the railing of the balcony on the second floor. Maybe it was because the railing was in disrepair for a long time that he fell down and died.

Of course, Knight Conan saw this scene. He was going to stop that idiot's stupid behavior at that time. Although he's retired now, as a former Templar, he can't be indifferent to this kind of thing.

Not to mention that this idiot son's wind rating in the city is quite poor. After his death, the whole city can almost be said to celebrate. If he didn't worry about the Lord of the city, the celebration will be held all over the street now.

But now, the city Lord came to find himself, saying that he wanted to search for a "God of death"?

What the hell is this?
