Chapter 195

In the afternoon of the second day, Renn completed several interviews, identified the authenticity through the eyes of the soul, and recruited the first batch of outstanding officials. He was in a good mood.

As soon as she returned to the study to rest, Oxilia appeared silently.

"for you."

She handed over a few white scrolls, and said, "Time is limited, I can only make the invisibility technique with four rings, and there are only five, so you should use it sparingly."

"Five is enough." Ren took the scroll and glanced at it.

These spell scrolls are white, tightly rolled up, only the thickness of a thumb, like candles, exuding faint energy fluctuations, and the quality is extremely good, showing Oxilia's superb skills in making scrolls.

"Thank you." He thanked.

"Be careful yourself." Oxilia nodded slightly.

Ren reached an agreement with the Modu nobles, which also exposed his connection with Master Anxi, and his safety was guaranteed. Oxilia didn't need to protect him at all times, so she left again.

In the middle of the night, Ren got up in the luxurious and spacious bedroom.

Putting on a set of black night clothes, standing in front of the mirror, activated the shape-changing ring, the muscles on his face squirmed, and changed into an ordinary face in a blink of an eye, and then took out a scroll to trigger, entering the invisible state.

Pushing open the bedroom door, Ren walked out openly.

The two Ultramarines guarding the door heard the movement at this moment. The symbiotic relationship allowed them to sense the position of the Primarch and knew that it was Ren who had come out.

They had already been ordered, and pretended not to hear anything.

A few minutes later, Ren left the castle smoothly.

The invisibility scroll of the four rings can last for an hour. Ren didn't want to waste time, so he immediately ran on the street.

Level 7 swiftness, even if you don't turn on "sprint", the speed is amazingly fast.

In the dark night, like an invisible gust of wind, Renn ran out of his territory in just a quarter of an hour, headed west, crossed the bridge over the Yero River, and entered the Earl of Atlanc.

The territory of Pilino Eden is across the river from the Territory of Glamorgan. The area is slightly smaller. The most prosperous area is located in the southwest corner of Modu City, adjacent to the old city. It is densely populated and has developed many commercial streets and industries. Garden, named Huixu District.

Wren ran down the street, avoiding several patrols.

Not long after, a huge manor in a bustling neighborhood appeared in front of him.

"arrive."

Ren looked at the luxurious manor from a distance, which was the residence of Pilino Aiden.

As a true earl, Pilino also has a castle, but it is located in the outskirts of Modu, far away, so Pilino prefers to live in a manor in the city.

Under the night, there are still many lights in the manor.

Ren turned on the voice of all things to the maximum, listening to the voices in the manor.

A large number of noisy sound waves are transmitted to the ears, which is chaotic and complicated.

After careful identification, he didn't hear the voice of Perino Aiden, and he didn't know if he had already fallen asleep, or covered it with magic, or was not inside.

I hid in the dark and listened patiently for a while, but still found nothing.

Ren ran around the manor, trying to find a place to sneak in, but found that the whole manor was shrouded in a huge security circle!

This magic circle has no dead ends at all, and even the ground is not loose.

"I go!"

Ren is very helpless. This kind of warning circle is an excellent way to prevent the enemy from sneaking in. Generally, it will only be deployed in wizarding colleges, floating cities, or extremely important places.

The daily consumption of maintaining the magic circle can only be supported by real nobles.

He also thought about whether to set up a security circle for his castle, but after asking Oxilia, he immediately dismissed the idea.

The area of ​​Bishui Gaobao is too large, and opening the magic circle will cost thousands of gold shields a day, which is simply unaffordable.

Moreover, there must be a wizard above the middle level to preside over the magic circle, 24 hours a day.

This means that at least three wizards need to rotate.

Pilino's manor was much smaller than that of Clearwater High Castle, and the consumption of the security circle was reduced. However, Ren estimated that Pilino spent at least 100,000 gold shields on the security circle every year.

"What a fucking luxury..."

Ren scolded in his heart, this old guy who threw himself into the evil god of the abyss acted too cautiously.

After observing outside the manor for a long time, no flaws were found.

No matter where he sneaked in, the alarm of the magic circle would be triggered, and the guards in the manor would be alerted immediately.

Ryan felt helpless.

He was about to give up going back and find another way, when he glanced across the distance and saw a clock tower.

The stone bell tower is seven stories high and is the tallest building in the vicinity. It is about 400 meters away from the manor. There are a large area of ​​residential buildings under its feet, stretching for more than half a block.

With such a long distance, there would be no threat to the manor. Even if someone climbed to the top of the bell tower, they would be spotted immediately during the day.

If it was at night, most people would not be able to see clearly the situation in the manor from the bell tower.

However, Ryan is not an ordinary person.

He immediately ran to the bell tower, and from below he heard the guards on the top of the building snoring, sleeping soundly.

"It's just right, it saves me from knocking myself out."

With a light leap, Ren jumped onto the window sill on the second floor of the clock tower and stuck it on the outer wall, like a gecko, climbing up silently.

In less than half a minute, Ren climbed to the top floor and saw the guard sitting on the ground sleeping with a spear in his arms.

He thought it wasn't high enough, so he stretched out his hand to grab the eaves of the bell tower, and with a little force, he turned over in mid-air, jumped to the highest point, and gently landed on the spire.

There are four protruding wooden eaves here, with a wide view, just enough for people to stand.

Ren walked towards the end of the wooden eaves and was startled.

"Fuck! Someone!"

A faint figure appeared in front of his eyes. He was wearing a gray and white half robe, with a half short cloak on his back, his head was covered by a hood, and his whole body was translucent, as if blending into the shadow of the night. It was difficult for ordinary people to see. .

At this moment, he squatted there, looking down at the direction of Pilino Manor.

Ren was very surprised, he didn't see this person at all just now!

Is there a time when the will to truth cannot see through invisibility? Or, did this person just arrive, and appeared when he climbed the bell tower?

What shocked Renn the most was that the eyes of the soul failed to see through the opponent's soul, as if blocked by something.

This is the first time he encountered the failure of the eye of the soul.

Just as Ren noticed this person, the other party also noticed the abnormality and turned back immediately.

Ren is in stealth.

But the distance between the two was less than five steps, and the other party's vision was extremely sharp, with a red light shining in the depths of his pupils, and he could see through Ren's invisibility technique at a glance.

Both parties were taken aback.

It was like two blind men groping around and suddenly at the same time touched a stranger who was close at hand.

The four eyes met, and they were stunned for a few seconds.

The gray-white figure reacted first, leaped forward, and jumped directly from the top of the bell tower with open arms.

"you……"

Ren took two steps forward and was about to ask a question, but it was too late.

The gray-white figure fell rapidly, and just a few meters down, his figure quickly faded and disappeared in mid-air.

"Um?"

Ren's heart changed slightly, because this person really disappeared.

The dual effects of the eye of the soul and the will of truth failed to find the trace of the other party, as if this person had never existed and entered another world.

another world……

Ren's thoughts changed sharply, and he immediately thought of a possibility.

There are two branches for a shadow warrior to be promoted to a legend, one of which is called the Shadow Assassin, who must upgrade the "Shadow Escape" element training to level five, advance to "Shadow Shuttle" in Soul Transformation, or directly merge with the "Shadow Shuttle" "The demon soul of the element.

The Shadow Assassin can enter the Shadow Plane at any time, and use the peculiarity of the Shadow Plane to appear in any position!

This ability makes the shadow assassin's sneak attack extremely difficult to guard against.

"He is a Shadow Assassin!"

Before Renn's thoughts fell, he heard the sound behind him. Someone appeared behind him, and an extremely sharp blade broke through the air and struck instantly.

"It really is a shadow assassin..."

Ren didn't turn around to look at the attacker, but rushed forward. With a speed of seven levels, even the Shadow Assassin couldn't catch up immediately.

Ren imitated the other party and jumped off the clock tower.

In mid-air, he turned over and faced upwards. Seeing the pale white figure, he also jumped down and disappeared.

When it reappeared, it was already in sight.

From the sleeves of the Shadow Assassin's hands, two sword tips popped out. The narrow blade was pressed against the palm of his hand, and both hands pressed down to stab Ren.

Ren's arm became as hard as steel, and he raised his hand to block it.

However, the Shadow Assassin's movements are extremely flexible, and his experience in close combat is very high. With two hidden swords, one on the left and one on the right, his left hand pulled out Ren's arm, and his right hand, like a poisonous snake, lightly passed through the gap between Ren's arms. Through the gap, he drove straight in, piercing Ren's chest.

Clap!

A few bolts of lightning burst out, and the Electric Thorn Armor counterattacked automatically.

The Phantom Assassin's whole body trembled slightly, holding the lightning, the Hidden Sword pierced through the Electric Thorn Armor, and finally pierced the skin.

Ding sound.

The Hidden Blade seemed to have stabbed the steel, a stream of sparks splashed out, and it could no longer penetrate even a tiny bit.

Under the hood, only the lower half of the Shadow Assassin's face is exposed. He has a short beard around his mouth, and there is a small scar on the right upper lip, which makes the short beard missing a small piece. It should have been left many years ago , is not eye-catching.

At this moment, the corner of the Shadow Assassin's mouth couldn't stop twitching, apparently startled by Ren's defense.

Before he could withdraw the Hidden Blade, a big iron-like hand grabbed his wrist. As soon as he touched it, the big hand shrank inward, causing severe pain from his wrist, and it was almost crushed directly.

"hiss……"

The Shadow Assassin let out a muffled grunt, launched the Shadow Shuttle, and disappeared completely.

Ren lost his hand and found that he was about to fall to the ground. He quickly took out the rune book from the ring, triggered the flash, and moved his body laterally for more than ten meters. He lost the force of the fall and landed lightly.

He looked around vigilantly, but found no trace of the Shadow Assassin.
