A Guide to Becoming a God Starting from a Monastery

Since there was no conclusion, Thomas did not continue to observe.

It's time to improve yourself.

Then Thomas began to infuse his divine power into it, and waves of memories flooded into his mind.

It was as if he had been practicing spiritual cultivation continuously for countless days and nights.

Through repeated tempering and carving, the mental power becomes more powerful and free.

As ten balls of divine power were poured in, he could clearly feel that his mental perception had become more and more real. Even with his eyes closed, he could still feel the objects around him.

Before, I could only feel larger moving objects, but now I can even feel small flying insects flying by.

Out of nowhere, a small insect flew by. Thomas closed his eyes, waved his hand, and grabbed it from mid-air. When he opened his hand, the insect was already in his palm.

Can you feel the subtle details?

If he were facing an enemy at this moment, Thomas was sure that his attack would not cause normal damage.

He can attack vital locations that cannot be identified under normal circumstances, such as large blood vessels, tendons, and some internal organs.

Whether an ordinary soldier can attack these vital points depends on luck.

But Thomas was not lucky, because he could really "see" those locations with his mind.

"Huh..." He let out a long breath.

Now we are more confident in dealing with the Assassins.

Then he took a short shower, went out, and gathered people.

It was almost time. The area where the Star-Moon Cult followers lived was famous for its xenophobia, and outsiders usually did not enter or leave at night.

Therefore, if "Rat" Haakon wanted to take revenge on Thomas and inform the Crescent Moon Cult, he should have sent someone there during the day.

At least not at night.

It is dangerous to enter the Star-Moon Cult's settlement at night.

Thomas soon arrived at the nearby city where "Rat" Haakon was.

Looking at the time, it was almost dusk. Thomas saw the plump middle-aged woman under a tree outside the city gate.

This person was none other than the maid who worked in that mansion, the one responsible for cleaning.

She was uneducated and was assured she couldn't eavesdrop on anything confidential. But precisely because of this, her movements were unrestricted. She could at least see who came and went, especially in the afternoon.

Ten florins would be enough to bribe such a man.

Thomas easily got information about the people coming in and out in the afternoon from the maid.

Ever since Thomas left that morning, Haakon the Mouse had been summoning his men frequently, but the meetings were always brief, apparently to gather information.

But when it was all over, Haakon the Mouse's personal attendant hurried out the door.

Just half an hour to an hour ago.

Ten florins in exchange for a piece of information, both sides felt they had made a fortune.

Thomas asked about the attendant's appearance and attire, then rode away immediately.

The other side had been ahead for more than half an hour, but they were walking, while Thomas's side were all on horseback. Their speed was not on the same level.

There would be no mistake in the direction, because the gathering place of the Star-Moon Cultists was over there, and everyone knew it.

It was getting dark.

It was just getting dark when Thomas and a dozen of his team members arrived in front of a small courtyard.

It was dinner time, the road was deserted, and there was nothing to see except cow and horse dung everywhere.

The main gate of the courtyard was closed and no sound could be heard from inside.

Thomas shook his head and motioned for the people around him to knock on the door.

There was no response, not even a sound could be heard.

But in Thomas's mental field, he felt someone approaching.

As the distance got closer, the images of people gradually became clearer in the mental perception: two tall men holding weapons.

Thomas drew his sword, and the others followed his actions and drew their weapons.

Then Thomas made a gesture that everyone could understand, alerting everyone that there was an ambush behind the door.

Then, a particularly tall team member suddenly charged forward and slammed his shoulder against the door.

The door was pushed open, and two spears from inside immediately thrust out, intending to catch the enemy by surprise, but they only missed.

In the rear, archers and musketeers were ready, aiming at the two men.

The two men were unarmored and were held at gunpoint, so they dared not move.

Someone stepped forward, snatched the spear, and pinned the two men to the ground.

The rest of the people rushed into the yard.

Then I heard some noise in the house, and a group of people rushed out.

Judging from their attire, they are all members of the Star-Moon Cult, holding various weapons, but mainly scimitars.

Immediately, people from both sides started fighting and a melee ensued.

Thomas was in the back, staring at the crowd.

His subordinates are very elite, all of them started as the backbone, and they have been together for a long time and have a tacit understanding. They are no worse than regular knights and do not require his concern at all.

What he cared about more was the Assassin assassin.

If it were that Assassin, he would definitely take advantage of the chaos to break out at this moment.

In other words, he created this situation in order to break through.

Then he noticed the enemy holding a sword and shield.

He was a thin, middle-aged man, unremarkable, yet he showed extraordinary agility.

He fought with many people in succession, but he ran away after just one contact. It didn't look like he was planning to fight, but rather testing them.

After repeated attempts, he found a gap and rushed towards Thomas.

Thomas held a long sword and faced the enemy head-on.

If you want to break out, you must defeat Thomas!

Chapter 43 Assassin 5

Time is on Thomas' side.

The disparity in combat power is causing the enemy's numbers to decrease rapidly.

The man was a little anxious and knew he couldn't wait, so he could only rush over.

Thomas didn't hesitate for a second and rushed forward with his sword, but the opponent blocked it with his shield.

The next moment, a powerful electric current penetrated the wooden shield, causing his entire body to go numb and temporarily unable to move.

Although it is actually only a very brief moment, it is enough time for close combat.

Thomas swung his sword upwards, severing the opponent's arm holding the knife.

The other man screamed and retreated, his arm covered in blood. The next moment, his eyes became ferocious and terrifying, and he suddenly uttered several words that Thomas had never heard before.

A dark purple light appeared on his body, covering it from the inside out.

The energy of the magic net was being madly extracted and condensed in his body.

Thomas's mind moved, and the next moment, he rushed forward with all his strength, slashing with his sword. The opponent had no way to avoid it, and could only block with his shield again.

Then my whole body felt numb from the electric shock.

The accumulated magic network energy is ready, just like a bullet has been loaded, and it can be fired by just pulling the trigger.

But the numbness all over his body took away his chance to pull the trigger.

Thomas's blade slashed across the man's neck.

A streak of blood flew up.

As life passed away, the accumulated energy of the magic network also exploded.

Of course, this was just a spontaneous, disorderly outburst, without direction or force, and did not cause any harm to Thomas.

Assassin's body was torn apart by the energy, becoming fragments of varying sizes. His head flew away intact, rolling several times on the ground, his eyes wide open in death.

Thomas sheathed his sword, his expression calm.

There was a time when the Assassins made him fearful and even looked up to them.

But now after actual combat, I know that this is the case.

The lightning sword is extremely effective against enemies that rely on magic.

The battle was nearing its end at this time. The enemies seemed fierce, but in fact none of them could fight.

Soon, the last enemy was defeated.

They began searching the entire compound. After a few minutes, all sorts of things were brought out.

There was no need to look at the money or anything like that, but we did find a few documents, badges and other things that could barely prove that this man was an Assassin.

Add to that a few captives and the heads of the Assassins themselves...that should be enough evidence.

Whatever this man wanted to do here, with his death, the plan ended here.

But then again, Thomas knew that he might have entered the sight of the Assassins from now on. He had to be more careful in the future.

Although Thomas didn't think the Assassins would send someone to assassinate him, who knew? In short, it was always right to be more vigilant.

Don't leave yourself to fate.

Fate is a cruel bitch. It can smile at you one moment and turn against you the next.

Now it is time to deal with some of the prisoners. After a simple interrogation, several subordinates came to report.

"Master Thomas, these people don't seem to know the truth. They're not from the Assassin sect... they're a gang of thieves!"

Thomas remained calm.

"Whether they are or not, if you say they are, then they are. They are caught red-handed!"

After looking through the account books, it was found that these people were the thieves gang operating around Kiev. They were elusive and killed people and robbed people.

Although they did not dare to attack large business groups due to their lack of strength, they did a lot of small crimes.

Regardless of whether these people are from the Assassin sect or not, they deserve to die!

"Withdraw!"

After finishing everything, Thomas signaled that everyone could evacuate.

But as soon as the group walked out of the yard, they saw a large group of people gathering from all directions.

They were all dressed like members of the Star and Crescent Cult.

Some had beards and some wore turbans, but almost all of them were armed.

Most of them are scimitars commonly used by the Star-Moon Cultists.

There was a large crowd of people, so dense that it was hard to tell how many there were, but there must be at least a few hundred.

Tsk, that noise just now was a bit too loud.

Just now it was a real fight with real guns and swords, and everyone brought sharp weapons like muskets, so naturally they would not use them.

Now it seemed that there was quite a stir. It took quite a while to search for it.

The noise and duration will naturally attract these Star and Moon believers.

I can feel the strong hostility over there.

The strong smell of blood caused by the battle was carried by the evening breeze and filled the entire street.

After all, a lot of people died, and one was even turned into pieces.

At this time, there were still many tied-up prisoners in the crowd.
