But when she opened her eyes, the intense pain made her realize that she was still alive.

She wanted to get up, but found herself so weak that it was difficult for her to even move her body. She could only lift her arms slightly.

"Don't move."

A strange female voice came from her ears. Elena turned her head with some effort and saw the other person's appearance.

Gray hair, deathly gray eyes, pale skin, it all looks like the aftereffects of losing a lot of vitality.

"Where am I?"

Elena even found it difficult to speak.

"Dragon's Breath."

Freya stared at Elena and said calmly.

"Dragon's Breath?!"

As an adventurer who often ventured into the White Tower, she naturally knew about Dragon's Breath and even had meals there several times. But she didn't seem to have seen the girl in front of her before when she came here.

"I found you in the back alley. Sister Olivia saved you."

Freya briefly explained the situation.

"Thank you for saving you."

Elena's tone was full of gratitude.

She knew her situation at the time.

Because she was attacked again in Baishi Town, she had to hide in the alley temporarily. As a result, when the poison broke out completely, she didn't make it and fell into a coma.

This is also why Elena thought she would die.

It was too easy for such a poison to spread throughout her body when she was seriously injured and unconscious. At this point, even a Gold Rank would not be able to survive, because the poison had spread throughout her body, even her brain and heart were no exception.

Fortunately, she was rescued by the girl in front of her in the end.

Otherwise she would really be dead.

"You're welcome. Have a good rest."

Freya nodded slightly, signaling Elena to have a good rest.

"I'm Elena, Elena Const. If you need my help with anything, you can come to the imperial capital Panivia to find me."

Elena solemnly told Frina her last name.

"I see."

However, Freya calmly passed over the matter.

Without waiting for Elena to say anything, she stood up and left the room.

In the corridor, Olivia was teaching Sheria about the surgery that had just taken place.

Seeing the door opened and Freya walked out, Olivia stopped teaching.

"Are you awake?"

"woke up."

Freya nodded.

"Do you know who he is?"

Olivia thought the other person looked familiar, but she couldn't remember who he was.

"She said her name was Elena, Elena Const."

Freya's answer woke Olivia up.

"It turned out to be her."

Olivia remembered who the other person was.

"Const? Could it be the Const family whose last three generations have been chancellors of the empire?"

What Xi Ruiya noticed was Elena's last name.

As a noble, she had naturally heard of this surname.

This is one of the five oldest noble families in the Patra Empire.

"I remember this little guy was quite strong, how come he was injured like this? Was he besieged by two gold-level professionals?"

Olivia frowned slightly. Elena's strength was considered to be above average among the gold-level assassins. Even if a gold-level assassin attacked her, she could easily escape from the battle if she couldn't defeat him. She would not be injured like this unless it was a two-on-one fight, or Elena was careless, or was attacked without noticing.

But if that were the case, no matter which of these three situations happened, it would be almost impossible for Elena to come back alive.

Chapter 227 Return in vain?

"To be able to survive the siege of two gold-rank masters, could it be that Miss Elena has some powerful treasure?"

Xi Ruiya's words reminded Olivia.

She hadn't thought about it this way just now. After all, a treasure that could help a gold-level person resist another gold-level person was an extremely rare thing.

Even if Elena was a member of the golden rank of the Const family, she might not have such a treasure.

Unless she came here for some important purpose, this treasure was given to her by someone for self-defense.

"I'll go see her."

Olivia said as she went upstairs to the room where Elena was.

This is Freya and Shiriya's room, temporarily given to Elena.

"Elena, right? Can you tell me the purpose of your visit to the White Tower area?"

Olivia had no intention of beating around the bush and asked the other party directly about the purpose of coming here.

Sometimes, it is better to be more direct in verbal communication.

"Are you Ms. Olivia?"

Elena was thinking about what to do.

When he saw Olivia, he was shocked.

"Since you know me, you should know my personality. Can you explain your purpose, Elena of Const."

Olivia felt vaguely uneasy.

She knew it was her intuition telling her so she wanted to ask for clarification.

"..."

Elena was silent.

As soon as she saw Olivia, she knew what the other party was here for.

But she couldn't say.

After all, she came here on a secret order.

"Elena, I know you."

When Olivia saw Elena was silent, she knew that her previous guess might be true.

"At this time, you should rest in the imperial capital of Panivia. The only person who can make a gold-level professional give up his rest time and rush to the White Tower, besides the patriarch of the Const family, your grandfather Vaughn, is..."

Olivia didn't continue, but Elena already knew what she was going to say.

"Maybe there's something urgent going on for me?"

Elena managed to answer.

"do you have?"

Olivia's eyes were burning.

"...No."

Of course, Elena was not in a hurry. She always advocated doing things when it was time to do things and resting when it was time to rest. The best state was that the two did not interfere with each other.

Therefore, if no one gave the order, she would never come to the White Tower during her rest time.

"can not say?"

Olivia continued to ask.

"..."

Elena's silence said it all.

"Ding~"

Just as Olivia was about to ask more questions, the communication crystal on her body rang.

Olivia took out the communication crystal and directly read the magic text message sent by her subordinates.

Then she looked at Elena with surprise.

"Elena, I got some news from my men that might interest you."

"Ms. Olivia, I think..."

"The body of a gold-level professional was found in the Kelan Forest, and many bodies of peak silver-level professionals were also found in the Kelan Forest. In addition, the Adventurer's Guild seems to have rescued two seriously injured gold-level professionals, but both are now in a coma. Do you have any clues about this?"

Olivia interrupted Elena's explanation, and what she said next made Elena look shocked.

Elena was not shocked that three more gold-level people were sent besides her.

Instead, he was shocked that the Assassin's Guild dared to kill the gold-level professionals sent by the Patra royal family.

"The death of a gold-level professional is a big deal. The Adventurer's Guild will definitely send people to investigate. By then, your identity will definitely not be hidden."

Even if a gold-rank professional disappeared in the White Tower, the Adventurer's Guild would send people to search for him for a long time. The death of a gold-rank professional is definitely a big deal for the Adventurer's Guild. Because every gold-rank professional is an important force in the future fight against the Demon King. Not counting the brave men and legends who directly fight against the Demon King and the Monster Lord, except for the gem-rank guarding various key locations, the gold-rank is the main combat force of each city and the main force against monsters.

Therefore, every registered gold-level professional will receive special attention from the Adventurer's Guild.

Especially when a gold-level professional dies, the Adventurer's Guild will send people to investigate the situation, and if the murderer has no legitimate reason, he will be severely punished by the Adventurer's Guild.

"...I'm here to find someone."

Elena only stated the purpose of her coming to the White Tower, but she did not say who sent her.

But even if she didn't say it, Olivia knew who it was.

If Vaughn, the patriarch of the Const family, had sent Elena, Elena would never have kept silent about this.

Because there is no need to hide such things.

So there is only one possibility, that is, the person who sent Elena was Patra IX, the emperor of the Patra Empire.

Therefore, Olivia didn't intend to ask Elena who sent her, as that would only make things boring.

"Who are you looking for? If this matter can be resolved as soon as possible, I will also mobilize people to help you find it."

Olivia said to Elena seriously.

"Find a girl with aqua blue hair."

Elena couldn't tell the girl's name, so she described her general appearance.

"No name?"

Olivia frowned.

If there is a name, both the divination spell and the search spell can work.

Even if it is a pseudonym, it can produce a certain effect when combined with knowing the appearance.

"No, only the appearance."

Elena knew the name, but she couldn't say it, at least not outside the White Tower.

"If it's just the appearance, it will be difficult to deal with."

Olivia groaned.

"Although I don't know what those assassins are looking for, I think they have the same goal as you, right? They even want to kill four gold-rank people to delay time. What do you think they are planning to do?"

Although the Assassins' Guild is considered a first-rate force, if it angers Patra IX, it will definitely suffer serious damage.
