According to formal etiquette, if Samaya wants to show kindness, he should extend his hand to Suldak to kiss his hand. If the relationship is normal and he does not want to have any contact with him, if he keeps a certain distance, he only needs to nod reservedly. For this friend who Carl took the initiative to take him into the car, Samaya showed a very cordial smile, leaned forward, and stretched his white lotus-like arm towards Suldak.

Suldak held that slender and soft little hand, raised it slightly, and lowered his head actively...

If he hadn't bowed his head in advance, the shock in his eyes would have been hard to hide.

He saw very clearly the magic pattern of a black eye tattooed on Samya's arm, and there was a trace of magic in the extremely thin lines. It seemed that this black eye was like a family emblem. , Suldak was extremely sure that the Samya in front of him must be the pretty figure she saw on the back street of the opera house that night, and she had some unknown relationship with Baron Grenfell.

It seems that while Karl was investigating Baron Grenfell, Baron Grenfell also placed a black eye on Karl's side.

"Cough cough!"

Perhaps because he felt that Suldak had held Samaya's hand for a long time, Karl had to cough lightly, and then took the initiative to signal with his eyes to make Suldak behave as a gentleman.The silent words in the eyes are clearly: 'How about it!Now you also think my vision is very good! '

Suldak let go of Samya's hand, sat across from the two, lowered his eyes deliberately not to look at Samaya.

"Knight Suldak, do you like opera?" Samya's voice was very sweet.

"Sorry, I don't know anything about opera," Suldak said.

Now that it was confirmed that Samya had a relationship with Baron Grenfell, Suldak decided to keep talking and find an opportunity to tell Karl about it.

"How come you don't know anything, at least you have been exposed to it a little bit. Don't you forget that you went to the opera house with me last week?" Karl patted his forehead and smoothed things over for Suldak.

Carl leaned on the soft leather sofa in the car, and said affectionately to Samya: "It's just that I didn't know you at that time, and I will take him to watch your opera next time."

Samaya said with a cute face: "Okay! Then you have to keep your word."

Suldak pretended to be drunk, rubbed his forehead with his hands sleepily, and leaned on the soft leather sofa...

The carriage drove all the way to the Knights Academy. At this time, Suldak raised his head and said to Karl: "Karl, I have a headache, let's not go to the Magic Union, you can take me back to the hotel in the Garden Square..."

"Huh?" Karl looked at Suldak in astonishment, he paused, and then he opened his mouth and said, "I have an appointment with the magician Nathaniel, do you know how difficult it is to make an appointment with the master of inscriptions?" ? Or just hold on a little longer...Okay, I'll take you back to the hotel in Garden Square first."

Chapter 328

The magic caravan passed through the long street, which was covered with a thin layer of snow. Several black ruts and countless messy horseshoe prints were like graffiti on a piece of white paper, and the ridges and courtyard walls in the distance were also A layer of snow fell, and pedestrians on both sides of the road wrapped their clothes tightly in the cold wind, bowed their heads and walked quickly towards their homes.

A faint layer of water vapor condensed on the windows of some shops along the street, and warm and soft light shone from inside the house.

Karl reached out and knocked on the car window, the coachman in front of the magic caravan softly stopped Gu Bolaima, and then the magic caravan began to slow down and stopped on the side of the road.

The coachman jumped down from the driver's seat, stood at the door of the carriage and asked Karl respectfully, "Master Karl, what are your orders?"

Karl opened the window, and the crisp air outside came in with snowflakes. Karl told the coachman, "Let's turn around and go to the Garden Plaza Hotel."

The coachman was very familiar with the places in Hailansa City, and said respectfully, "Okay, Master Carl."

After speaking, he sat on the driver's seat again, facing the fluttering snowflakes, turned around at the intersection of the street, and drove the carriage towards the garden square in the center of the city.

Samaya sat beside Carl, a strange color flashed in her amber eyes, she stretched out her hand to hold Carl's arm, leaned her head on Carl's shoulder, and took this opportunity to look up and down at Su with a pair of clear big eyes. Erdak's thin lips were slightly upturned, raising a seductive arc.

Suldak propped his forehead with his hand while leaning on the soft sofa in a slightly drunken state, and said to Carl, "This snow will probably last all night, and I plan to leave Hailansa City tomorrow morning." .”

Karl looked surprised. He knew that Suldak must be lying. It was impossible for him to leave Hailansa city casually at this time, unless he gave up his studies at the Knight Academy, which was almost impossible.Karl really wanted to ask him: Are you drunk and talking nonsense.

Obviously Suldak didn't, because he only drank a little ale, and he just took the opportunity to pretend to be drunk. Although Karl couldn't figure out why, he still tried his best to cooperate: "Why are you leaving Hailansa City in such a hurry? , isn’t the matter here not finished yet?”

Surdak twisted his body to make himself more comfortable lying on the sofa, and then said vaguely: "After the first snow falls, it means that winter is coming. I worry about the mountain road in a few days It will be difficult to pass, since you have decided to go, then leave here as soon as possible before the snow falls."

Carl asked again: "Leave this time, when will you come back?"

Suldak barely opened his eyes, and replied: "Next spring, at least that's what I plan for right now. If you need me, remember to send me a letter."

After a while, Carl said, "Okay, then be careful on the road."

The hotel is on the south side of the garden square, just opposite to the tavern. The distance between the two places is not too far. The magic caravan just circled the street and arrived at this cozy hotel. The glass door was wiped very clean and transparent, and the snow on the steps at the door was swept very clean. Needless to say, it must have been done by the hotel owner himself, he is always so hardworking.

The lights were lit in the hotel, and the carriage stopped slowly at the door of the hotel. Karl kissed Samer's pretty fair face apologetically, and whispered to her: "Honey, Suldak seems to be drunk, I don't worry about letting him walk back to the hotel by himself, I have to send him back to the room, do you want to go to the hotel with me, or just wait for me in the carriage?"

Samaya blinked her eyes wide and replied, "I'll wait for you in the car."

"I'll be right back……"

After finishing speaking, Karl stretched out his hand and pushed open the car door, beckoning to the attendants outside the car, and asked him to help Suldak who was staggering a bit, and he also supported the other arm of Suldak, and the two of them supported Suerdak. Erdak helped him into this hotel.

The lady proprietress at the front desk of the hotel lobby knew Karl and Suldak. She saw that Karl was almost bringing in a muddy Suldak. She hurriedly stepped forward to help, and shouted to the hotel owner who was clearing the snow in the back yard. , asked him to rush over to help, and kept complaining loudly, saying that he had never seen a Suldak knight drink so much wine and become so drunk...

Karl quietly asked the proprietress of the hotel for a room on the third floor, helped Suldak into the room, and let him lie on the bed. The proprietress of the hotel was also busy preparing hot soup to sober up.

When only Karl was left in the room, Suldak suddenly opened his eyes. Seeing that he was still a little drunk, he said to Karl: "You can find any reason to get rid of Miss Summerya, and I'll get rid of you again." Tell me why..."

"Okay." Karl didn't ask any more questions, turned around and left with his followers.

Suldak only waited in the hotel room for about two quarters of an hour before seeing Karl return to the hotel with his entourage. There was even lemon tea prepared in the room.

Karl sat on the armchair opposite the bed and asked Suldak, "What's going on?"

Suldak sat on the head of the bed and said to Karl: "Remember you took me to the Opera House last week? Then you and Mrs. Christie left first, and I was going to go back to the Knight Academy through the alley behind the Opera House. Now, I've been wanting to talk to you about this, but the alley behind the opera house was actually separated by an iron fence..."

He told Carl in detail what he saw that night.

Carl asked solemnly: "So, you saw Samya boarding Baron Grenfell's magic caravan?"

"That's it." Suldak nodded.

Carl stretched out his hands, rubbed his cheeks vigorously, and said with a depressed face: "Maybe Samya is not what you think..."

Although Suldak has said so much, he is still a little reluctant to believe that Samya has any connection with Baron Grenfell. It was only because of some ulterior motives that he approached him.

Holding a cup of lemon tea, Suldak said to Karl: "We don't have to sit here and guess wildly. Maybe we will have the answer tonight."

"You mean...they will take action tonight?" Carl asked after thinking for a while.

Suldak nodded and said: "I guess they already know of my existence, and they don't want to let me leave Hailansa City like this. They even worry that they won't be able to catch me outside the city. If they want to attack me If you do it, tonight must be the best time."

Then he said: "Of course these are just speculations, maybe it won't happen at all, but no matter what, I have to make a little preparation."

Carl took a deep breath and said to Suldak: "I will also make some preparations. It is best to wipe out these rats hiding in the city's sewers this time."

Chapter 329 The Assassin

Suldak couldn't figure out how many knights of the Knights of the Guard Battalion were hidden outside the hotel. At least he saw a middle-aged couple cuddling together on a bench in the garden square opposite the hotel. The snow on the two shoulders had already It has fallen a thick layer, but there is still no intention of leaving. It seems that it should be the manpower arranged by the guard battalion.

Backed away from behind the curtains by the window, there was no light in the room, but the street could be seen far away under the reflection of street lamps.

The street was a little deserted, there were not many pedestrians at this late hour, and occasionally a carriage hurried past.

Suldak sat on the bed. He took out a square iron shield from his magic pocket. The surface of this shield was covered with diamond-shaped iron thorns. It was very heavy to hold in his hand. It had a cold metal texture. When the shield strikes, what effect will those iron thorns on the surface of the shield hit the enemy.

Suldak rubbed his forehead in distress. Who would have thought that even dwarven chain shields could not be bought in Hailansa City, and the types of weapons and shields were not even as complete as the temporary market in the forest camp, but fortunately, he The power of time has increased a lot, and this cumbersome tower shield can be lifted easily. I finally bought this cumbersome guy in a weapon shop. Apart from being inconvenient to carry, everything else is fine.

His dilapidated Roman sword was also replaced with a knight's long sword with a silver gauntlet. This sword has nothing special except that the steel edge of the blade is better. From the weight point of view, this sword The knight's long sword is much lighter than his Roman sword, but it is about the same weight as the wooden sword in the practice room of the knight academy's sword gym. Ke sat on the chair with his eyes closed, silently feeling the knight's long sword.

Knowing that the other party would not come too early, Suldak lay on the bed and squinted for a while. When he woke up, he first moved his body, familiarized himself with the weapon in his hand, and leaned the shield against the bed. He was lying on the bed with the knight's long sword in his clothes and covered with a thick quilt.

During this month at the Knight Academy, Suldak only felt that those nodes in his body were still awakening a little bit. After each node was lit up, the sacred aura in his body would become thicker, and this was It was as if some kind of power in the body had been awakened.

Except that the progress was a bit slow at the beginning, now it’s like wildfire, those lit nodes have spread to the entire shoulder, and spread to the back, even when eating and sleeping, the sacred breath has been slowly spreading outward, When he looked at his body, his consciousness seemed to be drilled into a vast starry sky. In this space, countless stars were slowly rotating around a certain point.

There was a light knock from the window, and he woke up from his meditative state, and then the curtains shook slightly, but he didn't see anyone coming in.

Suldak only felt a murderous intent gradually approaching from the window, and opened a gap in his eyes, but he didn't find the intruder in the room.

Seeing the danger approaching, at this moment Suldak seemed to be immersed in a dream. Countless black tentacles protruded from the shadows and quickly tied his body firmly to the bed. Moving, he opened his mouth, but no sound came out of his throat.

His whole body seemed to be tightly bound by an invisible black belt, and his throat seemed to be blocked by a rag.

The breath of death enveloped the whole body, and cold sweat burst out from his forehead.

Just when Suldak was hesitating, he suddenly found a black and dull dagger hanging above his head. The voice of a person wearing black tight leather armor was vaguely outlined from the corner of the wall. At the same time, the dagger was silent. Cut to Suldak's throat.

At the same time, those nodes on the shoulders lit up one after another, a sacred breath came out from the body, and the ice and snow bound in the darkness melted quickly. Ke used the knight's long sword in his hand to hold the dagger dangerously. He kicked off the quilt covering his body, jumped up from the bed, and picked up the heavy tower shield to face the black figure in the dark. Swipe over.

'shield strike'

With the sound of the heavy shield hitting the wall, the entire wall was covered with spider web-like cracks, but the erratic black shadow escaped from the gap in the shield at the last moment, and the black shadow quickly shrank into the corner of the wall. It disappeared, but Suldak came to the window first and blocked the half-opened window. The black figure just appeared from the side of Suldak again, and the black dagger in his hand stabbed at Suldak's left rib. .

Suldak moved the tower shield in his hand, and the dagger pierced the surface of the shield covered with barbs, making a crisp 'ding' sound.

The black figure wanted to hide in the shadows again, but was blocked by the knight's long sword in Suldak's hand. In desperation, the black figure rushed towards Suldak like a black panther. Suddenly, the space behind the shadow became pitch black, and half of the room suddenly disappeared from Suldak's eyes.

Then Suldak lost control of his body again, only to feel that countless ropes were entangled, and the figure in the darkness rushed out again, this time the dagger in the black shadow's hand pierced Suldak's heart, a pale golden A faint light shines from Suldak's body, and the sacred aura in his body completely disperses these black shadows, and he raises his sword to tease the black figure.

The figure didn't expect Suldak to be able to break free at all, the long sword cut a hole in the shadow's arm, and the black dagger fell to the ground in response.

Hei Ying no longer had any courage to fight, and turned into a black carp and jumped out of the window. The crisp sound of breaking the window glass was very clear at night. Surdak didn't expect that the other party was as slippery as a fish, so he quickly Following behind the shadow, he jumped from the window onto the deserted street.

At this time, the people dressed as couples on the benches in the square park across the street heard the sound of fighting, and they had already outflanked the square garden. The bulky tower shield was put into the magic pocket, and he chased after him desperately.

But the black figure was extremely light, and sometimes it would occasionally disappear for a few seconds in the shadow of the corner of the wall, and then emerge from a farther place, and the distance from Suldak was getting farther and farther away. Seeing that the black shadow was about to flee, the two people on the chair whistled loudly to the surroundings.

At the same time, some guard battalion knights appeared on the roofs and high walls along the street in the square garden...

Chapter 330

Snowy night

Dozens of longbowmen stood on the roof of the garden square in Hailansa City, which was covered with a thick layer of snow. Several feathered arrows passed through the snow-covered streets silently, and were nailed to the wall one after another. The assassin jumped flexibly while running, avoiding several arrows.

Occasionally, his figure would disappear for a while in the shadow of the corner, and when his figure reappeared, it would run a long distance away.

There was a sound of rumbling horseshoes on the street. Karl led a group of knights to emerge from various street corners. These knights were wearing metal armor and holding knight swords. They all surrounded the assassin in unison. As the knight approached, the assassin adjusted his direction and rushed straight to the garden square.

Among the falling arrows, the assassin crossed a low bush wall and faced the two guard battalion swordsmen pretending to be lovers. The blood-stained arms of the assassin suddenly pointed like knives and stabbed one of the swordsmen. scholar.

Holding a rapier in his hand, the swordsman drew a 'Z' in front of his body, trying to stop the assassin.

But the assassin's body was as nimble as a loach fish, taking the opportunity to get close to the swordsman, the armguard on his wrist sealed the rapier, and made a light 'ding' sound.

The two guard battalion swordsmen flanked each other, their rapiers pointed at the hands and feet of the assassin, they didn't even intend to kill the assassin, they just wanted to stop him.

But at the same time when the two rapiers were about to stab the assassin, a black phantom suddenly exploded behind the assassin, and a few tentacles stretched out from the black phantom, instantly holding the two guard battalion swordsmen firmly together. Being entangled, the two guard battalion swordsmen were fixed in place as if they had been immobilized.

The two looked horrified, their bodies were somewhat distorted by the black tentacles, and some joints of their bodies were even deformed in reverse. Although they were still struggling in the restraint, the group of phantom tentacles entangled them tightly, preventing them from letting go. They have any changes.

Suldak, who was chasing behind the assassin, finally saw it clearly this time. These tentacles were transformed from the phantom behind the assassin, and that phantom should be his 'power'. In such a short time, he Unleashing the power of 'shi' twice in a row must have caused a huge burden on the assassin's body.

The assassin stabbed the knife into the throat of a guard swordsman, and Suldak could hear the sound of his Adam's apple shattering in the distance. Then he took the rapier from the swordsman's hand and stabbed it pierced the swordsman's chest.

The assassin's eyes were pure black at this time, and when he opened his mouth to reveal a weird smile, his mouth was full of fangs.

The other female swordsman screamed miserably, with extreme horror in her eyes. Unfortunately, she was bound by the black tentacles and could only watch the assassin piercing her throat with a thin sword. The feeling of waiting to die was almost It made her completely collapse, and at this moment, no one noticed that the wetness under the female swordsman's leather armor skirt was not blood.

Then the assassin jumped over the two swordsmen, and he rushed towards the fountain in the center of the garden square with the stolen rapier.

The black shadows on the two swordsmen suddenly disappeared. Their bodies were stained red with blood, and they fell straight on the snow, with blood bubbling out from their chests pierced by the rapier.

Suldak followed the assassin, and when he arrived at the side of the two swordsmen, their pupils had already begun to slacken, and there was only air coming out of their mouths, but no air coming in, and blood-colored foam came out of their bloody chests.

Police whistles sounded around the garden square, and a group of guard battalion knights quickly came to support them from all directions. Karl rode to the two swordsmen, and the members of the guard battalion behind him immediately treated the two swordsmen. The bodies of the two swordsmen had already started to turn cold, and the guard battalion knight stopped, clutching the magic healing scroll in his hand, and cursed: "Damn it, you are a lackey of the Black Magic Priory." '

"Catch him, life or death..." An armored knight beside Karl rushed out of the crowd, riding a horse and speeding up.

A group of knights behind him also followed behind the knight, speeding up and chasing after the assassin who fled to the center of the garden square.

Two horses rushed out from the alley opposite the garden square. On one of them was a ranger in leather armor with a hunting bow on his back and a dagger on his waist. The horse rushed to the side of the assassin without any intention of slowing down. Just when the healthy horse was about to bump into the assassin, the assassin turned over and jumped on the horse, and rode the horse to rush out of the garden square.

Unexpectedly, there was still someone to respond to this assassin, and the guards at the outermost perimeter hadn't been able to stop him, making him forcefully rush into the garden square, leaving only arrows along the way, the horse's There were also a few arrows stuck in the back butt, but this didn't seem to affect the horse's running speed.

Seeing that the assassin was about to escape, the knight rushing forward let out a cold snort, like a muffled thunder exploding around him, and then saw a magical halo emerging from the plain armor on the knight, a stream of magical power Flowing in the pattern of the armor, a hexagram magic circle appeared under the horse's feet, and just as the horse neighed, the knight and the horse turned into a white light.

'charge'

Surdak saw many heavy cavalry use this skill on the evil spirits collectively on the battlefield.

It's just that he didn't expect this ordinary-looking armored knight to be a costumed knight. He slammed into the assassin at high speed, and the horse in a layer of armor slammed into the assassin without any fancy. There was only a muffled crashing sound from the horse riding below him, and the horse under the assassin fell sideways, while the assassin on the horse took the opportunity to jump off the horse and rolled on the snow in extreme embarrassment. After two laps, he staggered up from the ground and threw himself behind the bush wall beside him.

The assassin fled in a panic, just in time for Suldak to catch up from this side. The assassin saw Suldak running around with a heavy tower shield in his hand. At this moment, his heart almost completely collapsed. He didn't want to face a shield-wielding warrior at this time, so he could only flee in another direction along the bushes.

But a group of knights from the guard battalion came up from around the garden square, and a row of longbowmen stood farther away. The longbowmen stood in a neat row, aiming at the assassin with their bows and arrows from a distance.

Under the snowy night, although the assassin's body can disappear in the shadows for a short time, it cannot remain invisible all the time, and will reveal its figure after sneaking for a period of time.

The assassin couldn't run past the knights on horseback with only his feet. He wanted to escape into the residential buildings and use the complicated terrain to avoid the pursuit of these knights, while the companion ran ahead and saw him being framed. The knight's charge was intercepted, and he rode his horse back to meet him, but was stopped by a group of knights led by Karl, and he was already in danger.

The assassin was unwilling to sneak into the shadows again, but a knight's long spear suddenly protruded from the bushes on the left. A knight broke through the bushes and pointed at the assassin with a five-meter-long wooden spear. The assassin was horrified, his body writhed in the air like a carp, and just escaped the blow of the big wooden gun.

After a short pause, the constructed knight behind caught up again, and almost without saying a word, he swung the long sword in his hand and slashed at the assassin's back.

The sword glow flashed...

The sharp long sword cut a wound on the back of the assassin who couldn't dodge in time. The assassin's body seemed to have lost his balance, and he threw himself on the snow in a panic. He tried to get up from the ground in a hurry, but was driven from behind. The constructed knight who arrived cut off his head with a sword, and the head with half a mask flew into the air, and rolled to the ground with a cavity of blood.
