The Invincible Overlord of Heroes.

Xu Lai only has one head, but there are more than thirty killers who want to take it away. The competition is fierce.

The old nobles attached great importance to Xu Lai, because no matter whether what Xu Lai said was true or false, it showed his confidence in his own strong strength.

If what Xu said was true, then this was a terrifying opponent who could defeat the Lord of Hell. Not to mention thirty killers, even three hundred would not be too many for them.

However, in such a rush, they could only find so much.

Besides, if you want to find a killer, you'd better find the best one. Otherwise, if you just find some mediocre ones, they will only cause trouble and won't accomplish anything.

Even if Xu Lai was telling lies, he dared to touch Kerrigan's rear, rob Kerrigan of his accumulated wealth, and kill his mount.

If Xu Lai was telling lies, this group of people couldn't imagine what kind of crazy revenge Xu Lai would suffer from Kerrigan.

Therefore, regardless of whether it was true or not, this group of old aristocrats treated Xu Lai as their number one enemy.

The moment he rushed into the big tent in stealth, the Seraphim and evil angels guarding the door were the first to move.

However, the killers were still invisible, and since they were only recruiting units, they could only instinctively attack the tent entrance.

The speed of the killers might not be as fast as that of the 9th level angels who have the blessing of super speed.

However, they were well prepared and would not be hit by the angels' blind attacks.

However, the angel's attack did cause considerable obstacles to the subsequent killers.

Xu Lai's big tent has two floors. There is a meeting area inside the big tent, and there is also a small tent inside.

Of course, although it is a small tent, the space is definitely not small.

Xu Lai was sleeping soundly. He had been ambushed by an orc assassin before when he was in the wilderness.

He had been assassinated many times by orcs, humans, and even underground races.

After being assassinated so many times, no matter how stupid Xu Lai is, he will be more cautious.

Although he was sleeping soundly, his mind was not completely relaxed.

Perhaps it was a habit he developed after years on the battlefield, but now, even when he was sleeping in his own palace, he found it difficult to completely relax.

If Elvy was by his side, he would feel much more relaxed and could easily have a very high-quality sleep.

Only Yu Lan and the others were around him. Although Xu Lai trusted them enough, it was only in their character.

As soon as the outer tent was torn, Xu Lai woke up suddenly.

However, the killers were faster and broke into the inner tent almost instantly.

As soon as they entered the tent, they ignored everything and didn't ask any questions, and just started shooting at the bed.

There was a chaotic clanging sound, and dense crossbow arrows all hit Xu Lai.

As soon as he was awakened, Xu Lai instinctively lay on Yu Lan's body.

This is a wizard whose curse ability can affect all enemy forces, but he himself is also extremely vulnerable.

When staying overnight outside, Xu Lai never takes off his armor, and this good habit helped him again this time.

There were only five or six assassins who broke into the tent, but they had hidden weapons such as crossbows and arrows tied to their hands, and they had a large amount of ammunition.

After both hands were shot, Xu Lai was hit at least 7 or 80 times.

It was a pity that he had just replaced the damaged Angel Alliance parts in Kerrigan's warehouse during the day.

The brand new set of artifacts blocked most of the attacks for him, and almost all the crossbow arrows and sleeve arrows were bounced away.

Only a few crossbow arrows penetrated deeply into Xu Lai's flesh, causing him more than 100 points of damage.

The damage was not that high, but Xu Lai's face turned blue in an instant, and it was obvious that there was a deadly poison on it.

The poison damage is over 150 points per second, which is so exaggerated that even a dragon cannot hold on for a few seconds.

These were just two crossbow arrows, which could almost 100% ignore the defense, completely ignore the magical armor, and pierce directly into his flesh.

If the rest of the crossbow arrows could also achieve the effect of 100% ignoring defense, Xu Lai might have been covered in all kinds of colors by now, and there's no telling how much poison he would have been exposed to.

Crossbow arrows that can 100% ignore defense are extremely precious and require ghost materials from the Ghost Behemoth.

It cannot be the recruited Behemoth, because that thing will turn into light immediately after death. The probability of dropping ghost materials is less than one thousandth, which is only slightly worse than the Undead Phoenix Feather.

Xu Lai waved his hand to heal the wound. He didn't dare let this poison continue even with his strong physique.

At the same time, Yu Lan, who had just woken up from her sleep, also attacked in anger.

It’s a pity that Yu Lan in her original form can’t cast any attack spells, and all her spells are curse types.

However, at this time, Yu Lan's curse also came at the right time, and it was a direct damage spell, so it might not have much effect.

The spell released by Yu Lan is called Oblivion, which can make all hostile targets forget their skills and spells.

This skill is equivalent to sealing the magic, sealing magic and skills, and lasts for 4 minutes.

Xu Lai gave all the general positions to the front-line combat units, but Yu Lan, Gisele and others who had always been by his side did not get this benefit.

As soon as the forgetfulness spell was cast, several killers whose figures had been revealed due to their attacking actions had all their skills sealed and were unable to hide their figures again.

However, these people did not show any fear at all.

As killers, what they are best at is using various tools. After all, their physical fitness is much worse than that of warriors and knights.

Immediately, two killers threw out two alchemical bombs.

This thing has both magical and physical attacks, and the Angel Alliance cannot completely resist it.

Of course, Xu Lai was not afraid, but there were still two killers who threw two bags of powder at them.

Not knowing what effect this thing had, Xu Lai didn't dare to take it head-on. He pulled his cloak over to block it in front of himself and Yu Lan.

Because they are in a tent, they can be accidentally inhaled if not careful, so these powders are not highly toxic, but they have strong hallucinogenic and confusing effects.

No matter how powerful a killer is, there is no guarantee that he can kill with one strike every time. When an assassination fails, they usually have a second plan.

Whether you miss the first strike, flee immediately, or if you miss the first strike, try again.

They all need to regain control of the target at this time, or at least make the target lose the ability to fight back.

Otherwise, it will be difficult to succeed whether escaping or attacking again.

Among the various powders that killers always have on hand, there is a powerful hallucinogenic powder that makes the target lose himself when he smells it.

There are also blinding flash powders like lime powder and so on.

The king's cloak that Xu Laixin put on has a stronger defensive effect, but it has little effect on these props.

Fortunately, in order for these magic powders to exert their maximum effect, they still need to be inhaled into the body.

After Xu Lai blocked the attack with his cloak, his head was still a little dizzy, but he was able to hold on.

He had already used a healing spell, and unless he found a chance to tear open a scroll, the negative status on his body would be difficult to remove.

However, with Xu Lai's protection, Yu Lan was not affected at all.

Yu Lan, who had already cast a spell and didn't want to be a burden to Xu Lai, transformed into a super war eagle without saying anything. The body of the super war eagle was extremely large, not to mention the small tent inside, even the big tent outside might not be able to bear it.

Yu Lan's transformation directly opened the tent, completely exposing Xu Lai and the killers to the angels.

The angels, without a target, immediately turned their attention to the exposed killers.

Especially the evil angel, who appeared in front of the killers in a flash.

The killer who was unable to use his skills was killed by the devil's sickle almost at the first encounter.

Xu Laidu had just drawn out the Prophet's Sword and had just been beaten up. He was full of resentment and had no place to vent it.

The little bit of health lost by the crossbow arrows and the poison had already been recovered with the help of the healing spell.

Drawing his sword and looking around, Xu Lai felt confused. After a moment of hesitation, he casually stuck an Eye of True Vision into the ground.

In an instant, dozens of figures not far away appeared in front of Xu Lai and the others.

These people had been hiding outside and had not been targeted by the forgotten spell.

However, they failed to notice Xu Lai's actions in the first place, causing many people to be killed by the evil angel before they realized that Xu Lai had already made counter-attacks.

The killer with skills is completely different from the five killers who can only use props.

The evil angel comes from the devil, and teleportation only takes a split second, but even so, many killers can still escape the fatal blow.

They did not stop after dodging the fatal blow. Some of them used flash skills similar to teleportation and flashed directly behind Xu Lai.

One of them is a void, making the body appear ethereal and immune to all physical attacks, while at the same time being able to raise a crossbow and shoot at Xu Lai.

The old nobles offered them a huge price, so high that they couldn't even afford it.

But after all, it is a big family that has ruled the empire for a thousand years, so there is still a certain degree of trust.

The killers only collected a symbolic deposit and rushed to complete the task.

He had no idea that those so-called great nobles would have to wait until Xu Lai was killed before they could obtain the wealth from the treasury.

There were a series of clanging sounds, but the killer's crossbow arrows still couldn't penetrate Xu Lai's intact magical armor.

However, several assassins who flashed behind Xu Lai were unable to snatch Xu Lai's precious head.

After the enraged Yu Lan transformed into a super war eagle, she cast a lightning chain, and several killers who had already used flash were all hit.

Yu Lan was unable to wear equipment, and her spirit was much lower than that of a mage of her level.

But with the help of the Statue of the God of War, which adds 5 points of spiritual attribute, her lightning chain can deal considerable damage, especially in the first few shots.

After being hit by the lightning chain, although several killers did not die, they were all in a state of serious or moderate injury.

The most important thing is that lightning has a paralyzing effect. Even if it only lasts for a short moment, it gives Xu Lai enough opportunities.

Xu Lai, whose anger value had already reached the maximum, turned around angrily and swung his sword, directly using a two-handed weapon skill to sweep across.

The effect of using a one-handed weapon to release a two-handed weapon skill will naturally be much worse.

But does Xu Lai care about this little bit of hurt?
With his god-level offensive skills, these killers were already seriously injured. Even if they were in perfect condition, they would definitely not be able to withstand his attack.

Even if all these killers attacked Xu Lai together and used all kinds of skills on him, they might not be able to kill him.

But if they were to encounter him, even a big shot like Kerrigan might not be able to withstand it, let alone these killers.

Xu Lai made countless mistakes, but these killers would lose their lives here if they were even a little bit careless.

The demons came later but arrived first, but the angels were faster.

Xu Lai chopped a few people to vent his anger, but when he turned around, he found that there were only a few killers left out of the dozens just now.

Although dozens of assassins have died since the assassination, not much time has actually passed.

However, their movements here still attracted attention from other places.

Especially when Yu Lan transformed into a super war eagle, her cry startled even Elvy in the Holy Angel City.

The few remaining killers, seeing that all their companions were dead, did not dare to stay any longer and quickly evacuated.

It’s a pity that the killers in the dark world can naturally be considered evil.

The moment they revealed their figures, they were all marked by the evil angels. Even if they entered the invisible state again, they could not escape the angels' lock.

The old nobles' spies hiding in the crowd did not dare to stay when they saw this scene, and immediately sent someone back to report the news.

Elvy frowned and looked in the direction of Xu Lai. She knew something must have happened, but she didn't know what.

Xu Lai's order to her was to guard the treasury.

But in Elvy's eyes, the treasure house is not as important as Xu Lai.

But she was still looking at a dozen thieves, and she really didn't feel comfortable leaving like that.

With a flash of the flaming sword, Elvy decided to stop disguising herself and kill all the thieves in front of her as much as she could.

"We've been fooled. This angel can see us!"

After killing a few thieves, the rest of the thieves scattered. Elvy didn't have time to care about them. She flapped her wings and soared into the sky.

When Elvy rushed back, the killer had already been dealt with.

"Xu Lai, are you okay?"

Xu Lai smiled bitterly and said, "Do you think I look like I'm in trouble?"

Elvy took a quick look and confirmed that Xu Lai was fine, then nodded and said:

"I know where these killers and thieves come from, I'm going to kill them!"

As she said this, Elvy was about to fly away, but Xu Lai quickly grabbed her and said:
"Don't worry, how do you know who sent them?"

Elvy frowned and said, "Who else could it be..."

Xu Lai smiled and said, "You don't have any evidence, are you going to just kill people indiscriminately?

Besides, if you rush over now, they will all scatter and run away. Where can we find them?"

"Are we just going to let it go like this?" Yu Lan, who had transformed back into her original form, was also extremely unwilling to accept this.

Xu Lai glanced around and after the killer appeared, his surroundings were already filled with angels.

Even Zou Jie and his group were blocked far away and could only stand on tiptoe to look around.

Seeing that there was no one around, Xu Lai sneered and said:

"Forget it? How can I forget it? I just don't want to alarm the fish so I can catch them all in one net.

After our people enter the city, I will slowly settle accounts with this group of people.

Let's be careful these days. Yu Lan, please take the trouble to keep an eye on me from the air.

I won't allow any of those people to leave this city!" (End of this chapter)
