my age of magic

Chapter 1597 146. Going out of the city overnight
Tick

A drop of water fell into the pool, and the sound was very clear in the silent night.

There was a soft 'click' sound from the tiles above the head, as if a cat passed by the roof and accidentally stepped on a tile and loosened it.

After waking up from sleep, the magical perception continued to spread outward like a tide, and the dark room gradually became clearer under my perception. Katerina was lying beside me like a female leopard, her eyes squinted slightly, and she was clean. With an arm as round as ivory, she picked up the Yalong light leather armor on the velvet carpet under the bed. She jumped naked and lightly under the bed, put the leather armor on her body without a sound, and casually took the dagger on the armchair out of its sheath. pull out.

The big curly hair that was as red as fire spread out like a waterfall, and she quietly walked behind the curtain.

At this time, my perception has spread to the outside of the room, and the picture of Ying Li, Helena and Becky sleeping next door clearly appeared in my mind. On the bed in the middle, Becky slept on the bed next to the window. She was wearing a camisole, and the edge of the vest on her belly was lifted up, revealing her white abdominal muscles with waistcoat lines, while Helena's bed was close to the window. On the side of the door of the room, she was lying prone on the single bed, with one arm resting on the side of the bed, her fingers resting on the hilt of a crimson sword, the breeze was blowing the white gauze curtains, and the moonlight was falling on the floor of the room.

The magic perception passes through the floors and attics of the roof, the wooden frame beams on the ridge and the red tiles on the roof. The internal structure of the Hollyon Hotel clearly appeared in my mind, and the six assassins lurking on the roof also clearly appeared in my mind. Outlined in the sea of ​​spirits, they were wearing tight black leather armor, hiding in the shadow of the roof, almost blending with the night.

I pointed to the roof to Katerina, and Katerina nodded slightly understandingly. The leather armor with the magic pattern of 'Magic Snake's Fang' flashed a wave of mana, and Katerina's body gradually faded, and finally disappeared quietly behind the curtains. later.

The assassins hiding in the shadow of the roof separated four people into the Hollyon Hotel through the attic skylight, and the other two slipped down the rope hanging from the roof. Through the moonlight, a shadow floated into the room from the window. As soon as he touched the floor, his whole body froze in place as if he had been immobilized. A dagger was pressed against his throat. Before he could react, the black dagger passed across his neck. A beautiful white hand covered his mouth, which was covered with a black veil, and he was gently laid down on the floor. Katerina emerged from the shadows.

Immediately afterwards, the assassin behind also came in through the window, but he didn't see the companion who was responding at the first glance, and immediately realized that something was wrong. Inertia swung backwards, ready to escape from the window. Katerina flashed to the window, and pressed her elbow hard on the assassin's lower abdomen. The dagger in the other hand pierced the assassin's left rib into the heart, and then The assassin dragged back to the room.

The two assassins were like fish out of water, twitching on the floor, blood dripping onto the floor, dark brown in the moonlight.

I put on my magic robe, stood barefoot on the floor, and as I drew a light blue magic circle with my fingers, the temperature around me dropped rapidly. A thick layer of hoarfrost condenses, and these ice crystals gradually condense into a thick ice cube.

Two assassins slipped into the corridor on the third floor of the hotel through the skylight of the attic on the roof, and the other two went directly downstairs. When Katerina walked to the door, the two assassins were about to take a sharp dagger from the outside. Inserting in along the crack of the door, they only heard a snap and cut off the latch inside. The two of them pushed the door in, just in time to see me sitting by the bed, and a three-meter-long ice cube floating above my head. gun.

The whereabouts of the two assassins were exposed, their eyes widened, and they realized that the situation was not good, they turned around and wanted to escape into the shadows, the ice gun directly exploded into a piece of ice powder at the door of the room, and the figures of the two assassins who had just hidden were stained. After a layer of ice powder, rough outlines emerged, and their figures gradually became clear, their limbs became a little stiff, and they looked at me in horror, with despair appearing on their faces.

Katerina jumped out of the door like a cheetah, and the sharp dagger wiped a thin bloodstain on the necks of the two assassins.

They didn't even have time to warn the rest of their companions, and they fell down in the corridor covered in frost. Katerina and I dragged the two assassins whose bodies were getting colder back to the room. Katerina said: "I'll go Let's take a look." After that, he hid in the shadows and chased the two assassins downstairs through the corridor.

After the ice gun exploded, the frost and snow left at the door of the room also began to melt rapidly, turning into water on the ground, seeping into the cracks in the floor.

Close the door of your own room, open the portal, and push the four corpses into the underground cave in Xinliu Valley.

I carried the deep-cold crystal dagger, walked barefoot to the door of Su and Annie, and knocked lightly on the door. Sure enough, Annie was more vigilant, and Annie's questioning voice came from inside the room: "Who?"

Light footsteps sounded, and the door was opened with a gap, revealing half of Anne's face, and she looked at me vigilantly.

I whispered to her: "Be careful, there are some assassins sneaking in!"

Then, under her surprised gaze, I turned around and walked to Yingli's room opposite, and knocked on the door too. It took me a long time to knock on the door before I saw Helena open the door sleepily. After seeing me, I was in a daze pulled me into the room.

I... have you figured out the situation?
When Katerina chased her downstairs, Justus had subdued the two assassins who entered their room. He did not directly kill the two assassins, but nailed one assassin to the ground with a bone spur. On the door, blood was continuously oozing from various wounds, a bone spur pierced through the assassin's chest, and with every breath, his chest wound kept emitting air bubbles.

Another assassin had a huge depression on his forehead. Although there were no obvious wounds on other parts of his body, he was lying upright on the floor, his body already stiff.

"Tell me, who sent you here, tell me, and you can die more quickly!" Justus pressed a bone sword against the assassin's jaw, and said against his ear.

"Hehehe..."

With black and purple blood flowing from the corner of the assassin's mouth, the distorted sneer on the assassin's face slowly solidified, and finally froze under the extremely weird expression.

"Although these assassins have the strength in the middle stage of the first rank, and the ability to hide and hide is not bad, but the method of assassination is still a bit weak, rough and barbaric, without any technical content, where do you think they got the courage to sneak into the hotel to commit murder? ?” Justus stood in front of the door and pulled out the bone spurs from the assassin’s body one by one.

"What about these two corpses?" the tauren Luka asked honestly.

"There are four more upstairs, let's throw them into Xinliu Valley to feed the spiders!"

After speaking, I took out the Hammer of the Time Breaker and opened a portal in Justus's room. The tauren Luka stepped into the portal with an assassin's corpse in one hand.We then went upstairs again.

At this time, all the girls upstairs woke up, everyone was waiting in Yingli's room, and saw me taking Katerina and Justus upstairs together.

Yingli, Helena, and Becky were sitting on the edge of the bed, and they were relieved to see me open the door and walk in unscathed.

It was the first time for Senior Sister Erica to experience this kind of scene, and her face looked a little pale. Although she had participated in some field training organized by the Royal Academy of Magic before, she had never encountered such an assassination operation openly carried out in a hotel. This assassination was easily resolved by us, but it left her with lingering fears.

In contrast, Annie, who came down from the battlefield, looked very calm. She was dressed in a neat magic pattern structure, and stood cautiously at the window to observe the movement outside.

Su was wearing thin pajamas. Her body was trembling slightly. She pressed one hand on her chest and clenched the other into a fist. The expression on her face was half fearful and half excited. There were two extreme personalities in her body. The half that believes in the holy prayer is full of pity and a little timid at the same time, while the body corroded by the body of shadow is full of desire for fighting. There is a devil living in her heart under the shadow, although she is not Nai A Farran, but I think she fits the description of the Nephalem in various ancient books better than I do.

But I don't look like a Nephalem.

When Su saw me walking in, he stepped forward and asked me urgently, "Where are those assassins?"

"It's all settled." I said to Su.

Su curled his lips in disappointment, "Oh..., I thought I could help a little bit, aren't you going to interrogate them? As long as they still have a breath, I can rescue him."

"Ugh! You can try it next time." I said to her.

I glanced at the clock tower opposite the administrative center square through the window. At night, the twelve positions of the huge time dial above the clock tower were lit with faint blue flames. At this moment, the pointer happened to be at a quarter past three. Everyone said: "It's still early before dawn, and I can still sleep for a while."

"This kind of thing happened, how can people sleep!" Helena complained, and couldn't help yawning after she finished speaking.

"..." I looked at her speechlessly.

Annie walked to the door and said to us: "Then I'll go back to my room and sleep for a while, Sue, why don't you go?"

Hearing what Annie said, Su stood up reluctantly, and followed behind Annie, "Oh, wait for me."

Senior sister Erica hesitated to speak, and left with sister Annesu.

Justus walked to the door and said to me: "I'm going to sit in the attic for a while, but I don't think I will come again tonight." Then he turned and left.

Sitting opposite Yingli, I grabbed those soft hands and smiled at her and said, "I didn't expect the situation in Qiyan City to be so complicated. Maybe this year's holiday is not suitable for adventure in the wild swamp."

Perhaps because of the many things she has experienced, Yingli is more confident than before. She raised the corners of her mouth slightly and said playfully to me:

"Last year we went to the northern border to hunt and kill barbarian warriors. I didn't see you mention how dangerous it was."

Helena came up from behind me, wrapped her arms around my neck, and rested her pointed chin on my shoulders.

I patted her greasy face with my hand, motioned her to calm down, and then said to Yingli:

"That time was different from this time. Last year was my fourth year of arresting barbarians. No matter how I say it, I have a lot of experience. I really don't know this wild swamp this time. I originally thought about it in Qiyan City Find a more reliable guide, but I didn't expect that the guides with no skills gathered in the city and couldn't find anything to do, but the guides with skills knew the dangers in that swamp very well, and even refused to accept this Task."

Ying Li was not worried because of my words, she said to me: "No matter what, we need to find Teacher Heidi and the others first."

After finishing speaking, an intriguing smile appeared on her face, and she said: "I just don't understand how a person with a personality like Mentor Heidi is willing to agree to you and travel all the way to Qiyan City to take risks of……"

Mentor Heidi is of course because of Sister Guoguo, but I also feel that the relationship between Mentor Heidi and Sister Guoguo seems to have surpassed the scope of ordinary friends, and should be regarded as close friends.

I was in a daze, and Ying Li went on to say: "As for the guide, I will visit the Marquis of Norman tomorrow, maybe he can provide us with a reliable candidate."

Helena also said behind me: "Someone dared to assassinate us in Qiyan City. I guess they didn't even know our identity."

The curtains fluttered for a while, and Kalancuo came in from the window. Her tall body passed through the slightly narrow window, and she was able to do so quietly.

Kalancuo was not surprised that we sat and chatted together in the middle of the night, but just strode to the square table to pour a glass of water and drank it down.

"How is it? Is there any gain?" I asked Kalanzo.

Kalancuo put down his water glass, let out a long breath, and said: "We have been tracking to the east gate of Qiyan City. The target may not be in Qiyan City at present. I plan to expand the search area and take people outside the city to check."

"It's okay to go out of the city to investigate, and withdraw as soon as you notice danger." I thought for a while, and then asked her: "How many orc warriors are you going to take out?"

Kalancuo smiled at me and said, "Instead of letting them do nothing all day in Xinliu Valley, it's better to come out and find something for them to do so that they won't grow fat."

I thought of more than 100 orc warriors running out of the Horion Hotel, crossing half of Strange Rock City, and climbing the city wall to leave the city. Once discovered by the Knights of the Guard Battalion or the guards on the city wall, I don't know what will happen.

But since she chose to go out of the city to search, it wouldn't hurt to have more people, so I said, "You want to pull out all those orc warriors? Well, I got it! I'll send you out of the city..."

I did not choose to ride the magic scorpion directly through the night sky of Qiyan City. The consequences of doing so will most likely lead to the Mage Law Enforcement Team in the Magic Union of Qiyan City. I used a directional teleportation scroll to go out of the city this time. The city is not too big, and after tearing open eight directional teleportation scrolls one after another, they arrived outside the east gate of Qiyan City.
