Chaos Le Zilong's Journey Through the Heavens

Chapter 84 Assassination and Counterattack

Ding!

Neo swung his dagger and cut off the incoming arrow in an instant.

Neo narrowed his eyes as he sensed several malicious auras outside the house.

"Find a place to hide, there is an assassin."

As soon as he finished speaking, Neo disappeared from the spot along with a burst of black mist.

The second prince did not dare to stay for too long. He used his two best skills, speed increase and low-level invisibility, and quickly hid in the kitchen not far away.

At this time, more than a dozen assassins dressed in black and wrapped tightly were hiding outside the house.

The assassin who should be the captain looked at his companion holding the crossbow.

Seeing him shaking his head, indicating that he had not succeeded, the captain made a few gestures, signaling three people to form a team, enter the house, and search for the whereabouts of the target.

This team of assassins has great coordination and skillful techniques, and it's obvious that they are a professional team.

Although they are all mid-level professionals, some of them are still a bit too difficult for Neo.

Neo, who was hiding in the black fog, saw a team about to enter the room, and his bloody yellow snake eyes shrank into vertical lines.

Swish!

The dagger silently cut through the air and chopped off the head of the last assassin. At the moment when the body fell to the ground with a sound, attracting the attention of the two people in front, Neo transformed into his original form and wrapped around the necks of the two men.

As the snake's body tightened, two snapping sounds were heard and the two men's necks were broken, killing them.

After chopping off the heads of the two men, Neo hid in the black fog again.

He was like the deadliest assassin, killing his targeted prey silently. With years of assassination skills honed with Warcraft, this team of assassins was killed without even making the slightest noise.

After spreading out his senses and making sure there were no survivors, Neo followed the scent left by the second prince to the kitchen.

When I opened the cabinet that originally contained various dishes and chopsticks, I saw the second prince holding a cooking spoon as a weapon with his eyes tightly closed.

As if he thought he had been discovered by the assassin, the second prince swung the cooking spatula at the assassin without even opening his eyes.

After Neo grabbed the cooking spoon, he spoke calmly.

"already solved."

Hearing this familiar voice, the second prince opened his eyes a little and took a look. When he found that it was really Neo, he was relieved.

"I was scared to death. Thank you, Mr. Neo."

Hearing this, Neo nodded, and just as he was about to turn around and leave, he was stopped by the second prince.

He turned around in confusion and found that the second prince was smiling at him with an awkward look on his face.

"Um, Mr. Neo, can you give me a hand? I seem to be...stuck."

Neo rolled his eyes speechlessly after taking a look at the fat meat stuck in the cupboard. He swung his black tail covered with hard scales violently, breaking the cupboard into pieces, and then the second prince escaped.

"Can't you just lose some weight?"

“It’s impossible to lose weight without losing weight.”

The second prince patted the sawdust off his body, looking very proud.

"I spent a lot of money to get this body of fat. I can't bear to lose it."

In response, Neo just rolled his eyes and said nothing.

Neo then gathered all the bodies of the assassins together and asked the second prince to see if he could recognize them.

After careful inspection, the second prince shook his head.

"These killers are very professional. They don't carry anything that can indicate their identity."

Having said that, the second prince sat down on the sofa and began to think.

But it goes without saying that these assassins were definitely hired by the nobles, and this has happened more than once or twice.

Although it is impossible to determine who did it specifically, it doesn’t matter because they are all in the same boat.

Thus……

A cold light flashed in the second prince's eyes, and a cruel smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"I'm not the kind of person who won't fight back when I'm beaten. Since they want to play this way, I'll play along with them."

The second prince took out a stack of documents from the cabinet and handed them to Neo.

Above is all the information about the nobles who support the eldest prince and their families.

"Mr. Neo, it's no use being annoyed by them all the time. Please teach them a lesson."

"..."

Seeing that Neo didn't speak for a long time, the second prince was very confused. After all, although these people were nobles and had some professionals in their families, they were no different from ordinary people to Neo. Why was it so difficult?

"What's wrong?"

Hearing this, Neo shook his head.

"Nothing. What you just mentioned should be another mission besides protection, so I was wondering how much more money would be appropriate."

The second prince was speechless after hearing this. It turned out that he had been thinking about the price for such a long time.

Huh? its not right!

The second prince looked Neo up and down carefully.

"Based on our interactions over the past few days, Mr. Neo shouldn't care about money. Why are you thinking about adding more money today?"

But when he saw Neo take out a booklet with the portrait of Ponlock, the yellow-toothed goblin, on it from his arms, he understood what was going on.

Damn Ponlock! Damn black-hearted profiteer! They're trying to cheat me at this time!

With a sigh, the second prince decided to accept his fate.

"Well, fine. I'll pay more. Just like the previous deal with Ponlock, I'll charge per person."

As he spoke, he also began to talk about his plan.

"I need you to kidnap these nobles' future heirs and their most cherished children, and use them as hostages in the election in a month. Calculate how much it will cost."

After listening, Neo simply calculated the number of people he wanted to kidnap, and then raised a finger.

"one thousand……"

"One hundred gold coins per person."

The reason why he quoted this price was mainly because Neo had no idea about gold coins, so he just quoted a random number.

"Pfft! Cough cough cough..."

The second prince, who almost choked to death on his own saliva, looked at Neo in surprise. He thought he would cheat him, but he didn't expect him to be so conscientious.

As expected, Ponlock was the only one with a black heart.

"What did you say?"

"Nothing. I love you."

The second prince hugged Neo excitedly, then picked up the banknotes and began to calculate that if he succeeded, not only would he be able to secure his throne, but he would also be able to extort a lot of wealth from the nobles.

"Hey hey hey..."

Looking at the second prince's malicious smile and obscene laughter, Neo tilted his head, always feeling that he was very similar to Ponlock in this state.

At night, in the royal city of the Kingdom of Kawa, in the palace of the eldest prince.

At this time, the eldest prince was holding a banquet with the nobles who supported him, and they talked from time to time about the royal election that would take place a month later.

The eldest prince is very confident about this.

"Isn't my second brother just like those businessmen, buying things from other places and then selling them? He poses no threat at all."

After some noble echoed this, everyone started laughing and mocking the Second Prince.

Little did they know that while they were playing this boring aristocratic game here, chaos had already broken out at home.
