[Warning, Bloody Hand Massacre launches an attack on the main city]
[The Bloody Hand Slaughterer has been promoted to a natural disaster level boss and will threaten the safety of the main city. Please kill him as soon as possible]
······
After the explosion, game announcements jumped continuously.
"The Bloody Hand Massacre? Isn't this the BOSS that the Knights Union went to besiege before?" Liu Nailiang showed a strange look. He must have said that the explosion was the Bloody Hand Massacre's counterattack against the Knights Union.
The tall female player next to her smiled and said, "They definitely didn't expect that this BOSS would actually take action first. This is something new, but I pity the players who were accidentally injured."
In the explosion, many low-level players, especially low-level players, lost several levels. Their anger could not be blamed on Su Changxing, but could only be vented on the Knights Guild.
Coupled with the always domineering style of the Knights Union, this makes them the target of everyone calling for beatings.
······
"You'd better stay calm, it's not very safe in the town these days." Old Henry reminded, passing a new cup of black tea in front of Su Changxing.
Su Changxing drank it all in one gulp, nodded and said: "I know, old man, I'm going back first, you have to be more careful."
Returning to the farm, he changed his clothes and set off again, preparing to intercept the third Duke, Bolai, before he went to Moan Villa.
This is the best opportunity to kill Bolai, and long-range assassination is what he is best at now.
According to Lu Mengyao, Bolai should go to Mo'an Manor from the center of the kingdom, and they are in the south of the kingdom, so Bolai will come from the north.
Dark green or yellow leaves are scattered on the ground, and compact or soft soil is superimposed on the bottom layer. In the night, everything is so clear.
Su Changxing squatted on a hill in the distance and saw the dimly lit manor in the distance.
The manor is located to the north of the main city, close to the center of the kingdom. It covers a large area and is more like a town. It is patrolled by attendants even at night.
"Well, it feels like it's more heavily guarded than the main city, so that's not surprising."
Su Changxing smiled to himself, waved one hand, and green figures appeared all around and dispersed into the jungle.
The night light like a gauze flows and slowly flows away with time. The suburbs are always cold at night and there is no popular warmth.
He lurked quietly in the jungle like a poisonous snake until the next morning, with dewdrops dripping from the green leaves on his head.
A huge team slowly passed by on the main road, a large and luxurious carriage, a butler smoking a cigarette, and attendants communicating with each other from time to time.
This should be the team of the third son of the Grand Duke, Bolai. Most people do not have such a formation. What is more eye-catching is the golden clover printed on the carriage.
Bo Lai has a very obvious feature, his eyes have double pupils.
But he didn't see anyone, it should be in the carriage, probably in the largest carriage.
The people in this team are not simple, and they have strong strength. The white-haired, cigarette-smoking old butler is a seventh-level Beyonder, and most of the other attendants are eighth-level.
A quite luxurious lineup, this team may be worth half the strength of the Knights Union.
Because many players have a lot of strength and are relatively weak at the same level. Their use of power is rough and their fighting skills are also very casual.
Of course, there are a few people who are also very powerful, such as the vice president of the Knights Union.
The morning was cool, but the air was dull, and the attendants in this team seemed nervous.
What are they guarding against?
They seemed to know that they would be attacked. Did they guess it or were they told about it?
Such questions popped into Su Changxing's mind.
But he didn't hesitate for too long, and pulled the trigger toward the distance.
"Bang~"
With the dull sound of gunfire, the bullet penetrated the largest carriage in the team and passed through a man's head.
Super long-range shooting of several kilometers!
There was chaos around the carriage, and a servant carrying a giant ax rushed into the carriage and shouted: "Master Bolai, are you okay?"
He saw a broken corpse, but the clothes on it were a little wrong. He was wearing armor, like an attendant.
Su Changxing realized that the person in the carriage was probably not Bo Lai, but someone else, a stand-in.
Since it's not in this carriage, there will always be it in other carriages.
He felt that Bo Lai should still be in this team, but he did not sit in the largest carriage out of precaution.
Then, he fired at the other carriages one by one. One of the bullets hit the carriage violently and exploded, but was blocked.
Just as he was about to make up for the second shot, he noticed a hint of crisis emerging. His body suddenly stepped sideways, and an arrow half a meter long flew slowly past his side, its feathers floating gently in the wind.
Looking for the direction in which the arrow was flying, Su Changxing saw a man carrying a long bow and wearing a gray trench coat, staring at him.
Dozens of arrows were already flying in the air, shooting at him like rain, blocking all the spaces around him that could be avoided.
dusk!
He spreads the domain and hammers out the rules.
The dark yellow light refracted in the surrounding space, and everything slowed down, including the arrows that were densely shooting at him in the air.
Su Changxing quickly ran to the side and left the range covered by the arrow before it fell.
He cannot avoid being affected by the domain, but he can control the rules of the domain so that "twilight" only affects a part of the domain space, and he can move in a space where there is no "twilight".
The man who shot the arrow was stunned when he saw this scene and felt shocked, as if a large space was lifted up by an invisible hand to prevent the arrow rain from falling.
This seems to be a majestic power.
A slender sickle appeared in Su Changxing's hand, and his body burst into dazzling white light, exploding and turning into white feathers all over the sky.
The next moment, he appeared next to the man, raising his sickle high and about to cut him off.
He modified a few rules in the field, allowing "White Feather Flash" to gain a longer moving distance and be able to move to any two points in the field.
As the blades intertwined, there was a gunshot, and Su Changxing drew his gun and shot him dead. The whole process seemed neat and clean.
But in fact, the opponent was also a seventh-level Beyonder, but in front of him, he seemed to have no ability to resist, and there was a qualitative gap in strength between the two.
On the clothes of the deceased, there was a golden clover printed on it. It was so luxurious and graceful. It was the symbol of the Grand Duke's Owen family.
Su Changxing used a short knife to take out the extraordinary crystal from the corpse, threw it into Galaxy's pocket, and at the same time put a newly stolen ability into the stealing slot.
[Dark Night Swiftness: Increase agility by 30%, movement speed by 20%, and can hide oneself to a certain extent. 】
This is a simple but useful ability, similar to trial by gunfire, which directly improves one's combat effectiveness.
Su Changxing glanced at the direction of Bo Lai's convoy, turned around and left. Since he failed, he was not prepared to assassinate him by force.
During the day in this world, his power would be greatly weakened. He had to leave immediately before it was completely light.
Not long after he left, the old housekeeper rushed to the scene with several attendants. Looking at the broken corpse on the ground, he couldn't help but frowned: "
"Dead! That man was more powerful than imagined, and he had novel firearms... It was just physical destruction, but the flesh and blood seemed to be separated."
The housekeeper picked up the cigarette rod, kicked the body on the ground, and weighed it.
They had received news before that someone would attack them on the road, and they were fully prepared.
But it was still impossible to defend against, the opponent's attack range was too far, it was terrifying.
If they hadn't been prepared, the other party might have succeeded.
"This can't be the same person who attacked the main city." The young assistant on the side said thoughtfully, thinking of yesterday's terrorist attack.
It’s also easy to relate to.
The housekeeper nodded and affirmed: "It's possible. This person is too scary. If we keep him in the dark, we may have trouble sleeping and eating."
You can only commit a thief in a thousand days, but there is no way to guard against a thief in a thousand days.
More importantly, Su Changxing relied on his super long-range attack methods, which allowed him to escape easily without risking assassination.
Su Changxing did not leave completely, but came to Mo'an Manor as a pork deliverer.
"How did you get here?"
Mengyao opened her eyes wide and looked at Su Changxing. Said: "Didn't you entrust me to deliver pork? Why are you here yourself?"
Su Changxing said matter-of-factly: "As the boss, it should be reasonable for me to come and inspect the work."
Lu Mengyao said quietly: "I don't think it is reasonable."
It seems that it is not easy to deceive... Su Changxing is not ready to convince Lu Mengyao, as long as others think it is normal.
"Don't talk nonsense later... This is also part of the commission." Su Changxing emphasized.
Not a moment.
The young black butler came towards us. When he saw Su Changxing, he said enthusiastically: "The quality of the pork you sent is good. We are very satisfied. This is the reward."
He took out a large stack of money and handed it to Su Changxing, which was far more than the originally agreed price.
This is probably the generosity of the nobles.
"Then thank you, Butler Monet." Su Changxing put away the money and said with a smile.
While they were talking, a commotion broke out in the manor. A servant hurried to Monet's side and whispered:
"Master Bolai was stabbed to death on the road."
Although it was very quiet, Su Changxing still heard it clearly and pretended to ask: "What's wrong?"
The black butler's expression changed, he waved his hand and said:
"It's none of your business. You should leave as soon as possible. If you leave too late, you might not be able to leave."
Bolai was killed?
Su Changxing was full of surprise. He definitely didn't kill Bolai. Was there anyone else present at the time?
Or cheating to death?
Lu Mengyao followed Su Changxing all the way out and asked, "What happened?"
Su Changxing shook his head and said: "I don't know, but it should be a big deal. We'd better leave as soon as possible and don't cause any complications."
They were stopped by the attendants at the edge of the manor. At this time, Bolai's team had arrived at the manor and completely sealed off the entire manor. They suspected that the murderer was in the manor.
"The third son of the Duke is dead?" Lu Mengyao looked surprised. She looked sideways at Su Changxing and seemed to think of something.
"What's wrong?" Su Changxing noticed Lu Mengyao staring at him and asked.
Lu Mengyao leaned on the table, with her face close to her, and said secretly: "You couldn't have killed the third son of the Duke, right?"
"······"
Su Changxing had a strange look on his face, didn't this guy know how to use his brain? Why did you suddenly become enlightened?
He smiled and said: "Am I not always with you?"
A sentence full of flaws.
Lu Mengyao suddenly realized: "How could you be the murderer... No, no, you weren't with me before. You came here after you killed Bolai."
Su Changxing held the straw hat in one hand and said casually: "If I killed Bolai, why did I come here? Why don't I just leave?"
"That's right." Lu Mengyao nodded, feeling that it made sense, and suddenly became confused.
She was a player after all, so she still regarded this as the plot in the game. She thought that Su Changxing's true identity was probably an assassin who rebelled against the nobles, and he assassinated Bolai without anyone noticing with his exquisite techniques.
But now it seems that Su Changxing did not assassinate Bolai.
