The Lord of the Rings: Lords of Middle-earth.

Chapter 664 You're a man destined for great things!

Darion, currently on the run, was completely unaware that the entire Gombad Fortress was in an uproar! The sixth Ringwraith under Sauron's command had been slain by an assassin right on his doorstep? Was this for real? Since when did assassins dare to provoke Ringwraiths? It's common knowledge that heroes hard counter assassins! And the Ringwraiths, the antithesis of heroes, are naturally adept at dealing with assassins, so the result was, unsurprisingly, unexpected…

A sixth-tier Holmras was swiftly and decisively cut down right on his doorstep? Everyone in Gombard Fortress was stunned! The high and mighty Ringwraiths was taken away without even a chance?

However, they didn't see it, because as soon as Amoraso returned, he took the unaccounted-for Holmras to the Witch-King of Angmar for help.

……

"Your Highness! A Creed assassin requests an audience!" A guard walked in with a strange expression and said to Roland.

Yun Feng, who was working nearby, lowered his head deeply. Listen to this! An assassin requests an audience... Tsk tsk tsk! What? He wants to assassinate Roland in person? Wait? A Creed assassin? Isn't that a sixth-tier assassin? Yun Feng immediately jumped up like a startled cat.

Because Yun Feng couldn't sense anything at the moment, it meant that the assassin's abilities were superior to hers, and his control over his aura was undoubtedly the highest in the entire kingdom.

"..." Yun Feng glanced at Adolf Heinrich next to him. This fire-attribute sage was also sitting on the edge of a candle, which meant that if this creed assassin wanted, he could kill everyone in the house and leave at his leisure.

"Let him in!" Roland, not being a spellcaster, couldn't perceive such details, so he just said excitedly, after all, the sixth-tier assassin he had been waiting for for several days had finally arrived.

……

“Your Highness! Darian Nightblade, a sixth-tier Creed Assassin, pays his respects!” Darian Nightblade knelt on one knee, one hand on the ground and the other behind his back.

"Get up!" Roland quickly said.

"puff!"

"puff!"

With two strange noises, everyone turned their heads and saw Yun Feng and Adolf Heinrich each holding a teacup and spitting it out.

"What? Is there something wrong with the tea? I'll have the servant replace it with a new pot!" Roland frowned. Does this brain-dead system even give out substandard tea? What a piece of trash!
(The system, caught in the crossfire for no reason: ...)
"No! This is..." Yun Feng rubbed her eyes in disbelief.

"Wait a minute! Don't rush! What is this?" Adolf Heinrich exclaimed in surprise.

"Light attribute? Light assassin? Ah!" Yun Feng and Adolf Heinrich exchanged a glance and screamed. Damn it, strange things happen every year, but Lagrange is especially full of them! What kind of monsters and demons are appearing? If they dare to produce a Light assassin today, won't they produce an evil priest tomorrow?
"Wait a minute?" Roland finally realized what Yunfeng and Heinrich were talking about, and then stared at Darian Nightblade in shock.

"Dude, are you serious? Light attribute? Assassin? Tier 6?" Roland quickly came over to examine him closely, his curious eyes more shocked than if he had seen a giant panda.

"Hehe, Your Highness, you... are of the Light attribute..." Darian subtly pushed Roland away, smiling awkwardly. He had expected this, after all, anyone who heard about an assassin with the Light attribute would become curious.

"Could you demonstrate your stealth abilities for me? Yunfeng, close the curtain!" Roland turned to Yunfeng and instructed. Yunfeng pointed, and the curtain closed itself—truly, a mage's mental power is incredibly convenient! Judging from the curious and inquisitive looks in Yunfeng and Adolf Heinrich's eyes, they were also extremely curious! After all, this was an unprecedented assassin of light!

“Um… it’s too dark…” Darian scratched his head awkwardly, mainly because he was afraid that the light would blind the three of them.

"It's nothing, we're just curious! Let's take a look! Come on!" As a seeker of knowledge—a wise man—Yun Feng is naturally full of curiosity about all kinds of knowledge. He has already prepared to record Darian's stealth data to enrich his knowledge base.

"..." Darian looked at the three eyes filled with longing and curiosity and sighed helplessly. It's impossible to reason with these damned devils! Especially with their wide-open eyes, Darian could already foresee what would happen in a moment.

"Stealth!" Darian's battle aura surged and enveloped him, then...

"what!"

"what!"

"Damn it! My eyes!" This is Roland.

As expected, just as Darian predicted, three screams rang out. After all, a normal assassin's stealth involves their battle aura transforming into shadows to envelop them, while Darian's battle aura transforms into a flashbang to envelop him. They're pitch black, while he's blinded by a flashbang... Especially with three people staring wide-eyed at the flashbang in the darkness, just imagining that scene... tsk tsk tsk!

"I'm not curious anymore!" Yunfeng said, covering her eyes and weeping.

"My God! How did he get to the sixth rank? Is he the illegitimate son of the Dragon God?" Adolf Heinrich said speechlessly, tears streaming down his face.

"Holy crap! Where am I? I can't see anything! Thump!" As he spoke, Roland flipped over the table and landed headfirst behind it.

……

"awesome!"

"I admire you!"

"Awesome, awesome!" Roland gave a thumbs up as he looked at the small sun with a distinct human-shaped outline in the dark room. He finally understood why Darian had said it was too dark.

With a whoosh, the curtain was pulled open, and as the sunlight shone on Darian, a magical scene unfolded: he gradually disappeared into the sunlight!
"My God! An adaptive mutation of the stealth skill!" Yun Feng exclaimed in shock.

"Isn't this cheating?" Unlike Yun Feng's analysis from a knowledge perspective, Adolf Heinrich's focus was on the strategic value of the assassin! It's common knowledge that assassins are the counterpart to spellcasters, spellcasters to tin cans, and tin cans to assassins—a rock-solid triangular relationship of mutual restraint. How can you play this game? Hiding under the sunlight, isn't that just giving you free rein? Open the can if you want, slice the skin if you want—the problem is, who's going to defend against assassins in broad daylight?!
"Darian, you're truly a man of great things!" Roland gave a thumbs up, extremely satisfied with the extraordinary Darian. Although he had lost the dagger hidden in the darkness, the blade concealed in the sunlight was even more appealing!
“Thank you for the compliment, Your Highness! I just pried off the Sixth Ringwraith, Holmras, before I came! That guy is really tough! I don’t know if he’s dead or not… anyway, I stabbed him through both legs! He’s probably beyond saving!” Darian said to Roland with a look of having met a kindred spirit.

"Huh?" Roland and the other two exchanged glances. What kind of devil is this? Did you go to Gangbada and open the can of Six Rings?
