Chapter 941 Assassination From Sheffield

"Those are...humans?"

Jiang Li didn't make a move.

He was still sitting in the carriage, watching the battle outside through the window.

Those dozen or so assassins were all human beings, and they were far inferior to elves in terms of physical fitness and magical power. I'm afraid they couldn't even win against knights, let alone enfeoffed elf knights.

"Why do humans come to assassinate me?"

Jiang Li fell into deep thought.

field.

The fierce sword energy was like the roaring of the atmosphere, and it easily knocked out a few humans who were the first to bear the brunt. Their spines were broken, their chests and abdomens were torn apart, and it seemed that they could no longer survive.

Bagster slew the assassins mercilessly, his sulking at the gallantry of his master.

Offer the greatest loyalty to the loyal master!

Shred mercilessly at offending enemies!

No emperor would dislike a knight like Bagster.

"Damn it! Why is it escorted by a goblin knight? I haven't heard any rumors of them traveling together!"

"Damn princess, this person must have evil intentions against Britain, I wish I couldn't kill him here!"

Killed half of the assassins with just one blow.

But the rest of the people still charged forward bravely, staring at the carriage full of indignation, and some regretted their powerlessness, as if there was some heinous villain sitting there, and they would be ashamed if they could not be beheaded. Eighteen generations of ancestors are the same!

"Leave a few alive."

"yes!"

An order came from the carriage, and Bagster responded immediately.

She weakened the strength of the sword swing to less than 10%, and only slapped people with the sword face, knocking the assassins several meters away. It seemed that they were severely injured, but they were barely alive.

"Marcos!"

Seeing this, the only remaining assassin rushed forward.

One shot stabbed the severely injured companion to death on the spot!

"You bastard!"

"Our Sheffield warriors would rather die than be captured!"

Under Bagster's horrified gaze, he drew out his spear and pierced himself in the heart with a single shot, and then fell silent in the blink of an eye.

Bagster paused.

Footsteps sounded.

Jiang Li came to her side and looked at the assassins who fell on the ground.

"Please forgive me for my incompetence, for not being able to catch someone alive."

Bagster lowered his head in shame, his face full of self-blame.

"It's not your fault, and I didn't expect them to be so decisive."

Jiang Li waved his hand, causing Bagster to raise his head.

"They shouldn't be ordinary assassins."

"Yes, humans will become warriors. This is a relatively rare situation, and they are also equipped with iron weapons. Few people in the whole of Britain are willing to do so."

Bagster's expression changed, and he kept guessing in his mind who did such a thing.

What can be concluded is that the ones who do this kind of thing are definitely not goblins hiding in the forest or in the mountains. They generally have nothing to do with the world, and they will not order humans with iron weapons.

But judging by the appearance of this group of people, especially the consciousness of committing suicide at the end, it is definitely not a mob!

Someone planned this assassination against the princess!

"Did he say he was a Sheffield soldier before he died?"

"It is more likely that it is a cover. It may be false information he deliberately reported in order to divert our attention."

Bagster said bluntly.

Although she was tall and powerful, she was not stupid at all, and she didn't really believe that it was the other party's indignation from the bottom of her heart.

"only……"

"But what?"

"From the current standpoint, Sheffield is indeed the city most likely to do such a thing. Norwich cannot protect itself, Oxford regards teeth as the absolute leader, and Salisbury is famous for its peace... ..."

Bagster voiced his guess.

There are not many cities that employ humans as soldiers.

In general, apart from Gloucester, which is absolutely neutral, there are only Salisbury, Norwich, Oxford and Sheffield.

Oxford is a city where the head of the Fang clan is the lord. The Fang clan is notoriously proud and warlike. Although they have accepted some human soldiers, no matter what kind of war occurs, the soldiers of the Fang will lead the way, and the human soldiers will only serve as assistants. role, to do something that only humans can do.

The lord of Salisbury is the patriarch of the Wind Clan, and the Wind Patriarch is a well-known good man throughout Britain.

"And Norwich has recently been caught in a once-in-a-thousand-year catastrophe, and it's hard to protect itself. It's hard to imagine sending someone to do this kind of thing, and the lord of Norwich is notoriously mercenary, so he won't do this kind of hard work. Unpleasant things...Only Sheffield, there are rumors that there has been dissatisfaction with the Queen's rule recently, and there is a tendency to rebel!"

Bagster's tone gradually turned cold.

To rebel against the queen's rule is to shake the peace of Britain!

That kind of guy should have been eliminated as quickly as possible, but for some reason, the queen ignored Sheffield, and she, as a subordinate, could not send troops without authorization.

"If you really plan to rebel, you should try your best to hide your strength and bide your time. Send someone to assassinate me. How much do you want to be noticed by Camelot? Is the lord of Sheffield tired of working, or is he just a simple idiot?"

"This is indeed a loophole... I can affirm that the lord of Sheffield is definitely not an idiot!"

"you know?"

"There was a relationship once."

Bagster's expression was in a trance for a moment, as if he was lost in memory, but he recovered quickly.

In this way, it is hard to say whether Sheffield sent someone to assassinate him.

Jiang Li observed the dozens of corpses on the ground for a while, but he didn't find any obvious features.

If there is any consistency, it is only that they are all young people in their twenties.

"Lord Gawain, Morse has dealt with everything."

"You did a good job, and Her Royal Highness also gave you a very high evaluation."

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your compliment!"

The knights were suddenly excited.

It's a pity that Her Royal Highness has been covering her face with a hood, and they have no chance to see the posture that Camelot's senior elves praised as "the most shining star in Britain", which made the knights very discouraged.

"Bagster, give me a map."

"Yes, Your Highness."

"Next, are you going to go south?"

"Yes."

"Then let's part here."

Jiang Li looked carefully at the map in his hand, and quickly made a decision.

Bagster didn't go out specifically to escort him. She was leaving Camelot after receiving an order from the queen to complete a mission in a certain area in the south.

Jiang Li felt that it was the same wherever he went to relax, so he joined her motorcade without any reason.

"Your Highness, what about you?"

"I'm going north, to Sheffield!"

Jiang Li put away the map, a sneer sneered at the corner of his mouth under the hood.

"I'm not a coward who just swallows it in my stomach. No matter who sends someone to assassinate me, I will make him pay the price in blood!"
