Volume 1: Chapter 63: Wooden Man Traps Water Dragon

'What does it smell like?'

A hint of suspicion flashed through Lu Yuan's heart. It was not a normal smell, nor was it the fragrance of the soil in the fields. Instead, it was a "stench" that penetrated deep into his bones.

only.

This "stench" is not manifested in the smell, but in the spirit.

As Lu Yuan's Originium skills under the 'Manipulation of Wood' become more and more advanced, he has a higher-dimensional perception than ordinary people. He can sense details that ordinary people cannot perceive, just as Lu Yuan can sense the emotional fluctuations of plants.

If it wasn't Lu Yuan but an ordinary person here, he might not be able to detect this smell.

'Stink', 'Disgusting', 'Visceral Disgust'

A variety of emotions instinctively flashed through Lu Yuan's mind in an instant.

"poison..."

A thought immediately came to mind.

The next second after this thought came to his mind, Lu Yuan felt his head suddenly become a little dizzy, and his whole body became a little sluggish, as if he had inhaled a large amount of anesthetic gas in one breath.

suddenly.

Accompanied by a roar like thunder in the distance.

A meteor powerful enough to streak through the night sky came in an instant, entangled in lightning. Its speed was so fast that it seemed like real thunder. Even though it was shot from a great distance away, it still did not give people any time to react.

The 'meteor' fell precisely at Lu Yuan's location, without deviation and with incredible accuracy.

The next moment, there was a loud explosion.

Smoke and dust flew, covering the fields. Thunder exploded around the "meteor", and lightning and thunder flashed in the shrouded smoke and dust.

However, this is not the end. The second "meteor" came one after another, and the third... the fourth... the fifth...

A total of six shots were fired.

The explosion caused smoke and dust to fill an area of half an acre before the attacks from a distance stopped.

"knock off..."

A man in a black robe holding an oversized heavy crossbow gradually appeared from the top of an abandoned chimney in the distance.

His eyes hidden under the hood were as sharp as heavy arrows that could pierce through everything, and he looked indifferently at the smoke in the distance.

As one of the top killers in Syracuse, countless prey have died at his hands over the years, ranging from ordinary researchers to the leader of a gang, the head of a family, and even the top leaders of a small country.

“Great, great…”

Behind the black-robed killer, there was a sound of heavy applause.

The leader of the 'Black Tower Society', Tieta, who was over two meters tall and covered in hideous tattoos, came from behind while clapping his hands, and was followed by several bodyguards.

"As expected of the killer introduced by Master Hu, he's really awesome!"

A cruel smile appeared on the corner of Tieta's mouth, and then he looked into the distance at the smoke and dust filling the edge of the fields, feeling particularly happy and comfortable in his heart.

Tieta saw the long-range sniper attack just now.

To tell the truth.

He didn't believe in the strength of this top killer from Syracuse recommended by Mr. Hu at first, but now he is completely convinced after seeing this move.

Even without the colorless and odorless poison, few people could withstand the subsequent crossbow arrows that were as powerful as meteors in the sky without any preparation.

After all, Lu Yuan is just flesh and blood.

What’s the use of being strong and talented?

After all, human beings as individuals are too weak.

As long as he is not invulnerable and immortal, there are countless ways to kill him.

but.

After thinking about it carefully, Tieta felt a little scared in his heart. What if such a powerful killer targeted him?

The thought of this.

Tieta pulled his throat and said loudly, "How about this? I'll give you this amount every year, how about you follow me?"

He raised a finger, showing his wealth and generosity.

"And this is just the basic salary. No matter what you ask for, I can satisfy you. Whether it's power or all kinds of women, even the most perverted, or the most incomprehensible fetishes to outsiders, I will find a way to satisfy them perfectly!"

Tieta really wants to recruit this top killer of Syracuse under his command. If such a person can join his camp, it will be a great help to him.

"The final payment."

"I'm a free spirit and don't like to join any faction. Besides, the target is weaker than expected. You have to pay more this time. You have to pay me extra for making me carry out such a boring mission."

"no problem!"

Tieta agreed very readily, even though the other party suddenly asked for more money.

After all, the 'Black Tower Society' he leads has quite a lot of gray industries in Longmen.

You know, the gray industry makes money much faster than the regular industry. The monthly revenue of an ordinary nightclub can be equivalent to the annual revenue of a large factory.

After all, these days, making money is like tug-of-war, you have to compete with others, but spending money is like water. The money you work hard for for several months or even years may be spent in ten minutes.

Nightclubs are such places.

"However, before I make the final payment, I still need to confirm whether Lu Yuan is dead or not."

Tieta put his hands in his pockets and staggered to the edge. Looking at the gradually dispersing smoke and dust, he was already impatient to see the bloody scene of Lu Yuan being nailed to the ground or his body being blown to pieces.

"random."

"But... so far, my success rate has been 100%. No prey has ever escaped from my grasp..."

The black-robed killer said slowly.

of course.

He was also quite picky when accepting missions. As long as he was sure that he could not kill the prey 100%, he would not act rashly. Once he took action, it meant that he was fully prepared.

"Of course I trust you, sir. However, I won't be able to rest easy until I see the body."

The tower stood on the edge, gazing deeply.

suddenly.

A breeze blew from afar, gradually thinning the swirling smoke and dust.

At this moment, Tieta suddenly noticed something was wrong.

"Um?!"

Tieta's surprised voice naturally attracted the black-robed killer who was about to finish his work and take the money and leave. He also walked over slowly.

Under the black robe, those hawk-like eyes looked downwards.

then.

There was also a hint of doubt in his eyes.

because...

He saw a huge black shadow from the gradually thinning smoke and dust.

"!"

The black-robed killer frowned deeply.

As the top killer, he has always been walking in the underworld of Syracuse with the idea of either not taking action or killing when taking action.

Now, how could he allow such an unknown to appear before him.

He picked up the heavy crossbow that he was about to put away, and pulled out another crossbow arrow from the quiver. The arrow was as long as his arm and as thick as several fingers stacked together.

Half kneeling, aiming...

The Originium skills in his body were used at this moment. The heavy crossbow in his hand was also a customized staff, which could cooperate with his Originium skills to launch powerful attacks.

This time.

The black-robed killer gathered all his strength and used all his strength in one breath to perform the Originium technique. Thunder splashed on the entire staff crossbow, and these thunders condensed on the arrowhead of the heavy crossbow, filling the top of this special crossbow arrow with the light of thunder.

Pull the trigger.

Like the sound of thunder in the distance.

The crossbow arrow, empowered by the Originium technique, once again transformed into a meteor, tearing through the air and making a sound that was a mixture of lightning and air, and in an instant it reached the smoke and dust where Lu Yuan was.

But this time.

When the 'meteor' is about to disappear into the smoke and dust.

Suddenly, a big hand stretched out from the smoke and dust.

The "meteor" was like a dwarf in front of the big hand, and the big hand easily caught the "meteor" flying from a distance.

That's it.

The heavy crossbow arrow was quietly grasped in the big hand. The thunder at the tip of the arrow splashed, but it could not cause any damage.

at this time.

Far away from Lu Yuan's location, Tieta and the black-robed killer both widened their eyes, with a hint of disbelief in both of them.

Because it happened so quickly just now, they didn't see it clearly.

When the big hand that was holding the crossbow arrow froze, the two of them noticed that it was not a real hand at all, but a big hand made of wood.

"Could it be..."

The black-robed killer was a little skeptical. Suddenly, a thought occurred to him: could it be that all his attacks just now were ineffective?

It seems that this is just to confirm the other party's guess.

The big wooden hand swung hard to the side, and the heavy crossbow arrow was thrown far away. When the big wooden hand swung, it brought up gusts of strong wind, blowing away a large cloud of smoke and dust covering the field area.

Reveal the full picture beneath the smoke and dust to everyone.

Lu Yuan, who should have died in there, stood there motionless and majestically. On the ground, six heavily loaded crossbow arrows, some broken and some intact, lay casually on the ground.

Behind Lu Yuan, two large hands made of wood protected him from behind, blocking all oncoming attacks for him.

The black-robed killer was completely stunned at this point.

The six full-strength attacks he had just made were actually all blocked by the opponent, and... they did not cause much damage to the opponent, and they were not even able to make the opponent retreat half a step.

Moreover, how could the other party resist the poison that he had prepared himself?

The black-robed killer asked himself, his poison was specially made by himself, and there is no antidote in the world.

Although the poison he mixed himself would not cause any harm to the human body, it would miraculously slow down a person's reaction ability. This colorless, odorless and unpreventable poison was more suitable for him than those poisons with color and smell.

On the war zone.

Once the reaction is slow, then there is no difference between you and a living target.

"Is this a magician?!"

The black-robed killer asked himself, since he started his career, he had sniped many targets, including some very powerful magicians.

But a magician is just a magician after all. Although the long-range firepower is extremely powerful, it is ultimately just a "human".

But...this magician was completely different from all the magicians he had known before.

should say...

Even more outrageous, even more powerful.

"I really underestimated you."

Looking at Lu Yuan standing still and blocking seven of his arrows, the black-robed killer did not retreat, but instead aroused some competitive spirit.

The black-robed killer finally revealed a slight smile beneath his black robe. He said, "You don't have to add to the price. This time, my opponent is interesting and beyond my expectations. If I enjoy myself, I might give you a discount."

Done.

He directly took out a gradually gray-black source stone hidden inside the heavy crossbow, and took out a larger one and stuffed it into the heavy crossbow.

then.
