Chapter 1599 Assassination Team
In the dense forest, the breeze blew against his face, scattering his hair, but it could not blow away the seriousness between Achilles' brows.
He frowned, eyes widened, and said in a low voice, "What did you say?"
"I said, the legend you heard thousands of years ago is true. There is indeed something in Moonlight City that seals the power of the God of Creation." I paused and then said: "Or, ten weapons are more appropriate. .”
After a long silence, Achilles spoke up and questioned: "How do you know?"
"The Fairy Queen told me what she said. You wouldn't think that she was just telling you nonsense."
Achilles shook his head: "The Fairy Queen knows right from wrong and grasps the importance properly. She will not just tell such a thing as a story. It's just... ugh."
He sighed deeply, his expression was like that of an old man who had gone through all the vicissitudes of life and had a haggard heart.
Well, if we count the years, he is really an old man, no, he is a thousand-year-old demon.
"What's wrong with you?" I asked in confusion, "Why do you act like a dying old man who is worried about the world?"
Achilles shook his head and said sadly: "I'm thinking, if the goblin emperor back then was willing to use that kind of weapon to save the world, my lord might not be in trouble."
I curled my lips and said, "Well, I don't think you're right."
"What's wrong?"
"Your lord may not be in trouble for a while, but your lord will definitely die soon. And not only your lord, but also everyone in the Zefeng Continent will be in trouble."
"What do you mean?" Achilles suddenly realized. He was stunned for a few seconds and murmured: "What a risk, what a risk. The Goblin Emperor is worthy of being a Goblin Emperor. Even if he encounters a great disaster, he can persevere. What a loss." He has a firm mind and a long-term vision, otherwise it would be an immeasurable disaster!"
I couldn't help but laugh when I saw him feeling so emotional.
When the Goblin Royal Family chooses an emperor, they naturally consider many conditions, screen out many unqualified candidates, and finally select the best person with outstanding talents, long-term vision, and grand ambitions.
Perhaps these best people will dilute their revenge, limit their horizons, and even forget about simplicity due to the growth of desire and the passing of time, but they will never violate the bottom line of the race.
They all know very well that if they continue to play and make trouble, even if they are tyrannical, incompetent, and extravagant, the most they will do is be called a coward or a tyrant by future generations.
But once you touch a weapon with the power of the God of Creation, once something goes wrong, it's not just as simple as being criticized by future generations.
That would lead to the destruction of the country and the genocide, and he would be the sinner of the entire race!
Even if you die and your soul returns to the God of Creation, you will still be despised and ostracized by the deceased tribesmen, and you will never have peace.
In this case, which elf emperor would dare to take risks, dare to be a pioneer, and challenge the legends and clan rules.
Achilles murmured to himself for a long time, then wiped his sweat and let out a breath.
"How about we walk further in?" I asked tentatively: "Get a glimpse of the honor of the monsters living deep in the Elf Forest, and then wait for an opportunity to test their strength?"
Achilles waved his hands repeatedly and said: "Forget it, the monster that can destroy the Zephyr Continent is not something that an adventurer like me can match. Once encountered, I will definitely turn around and run away. As for whether you can If you run away, it all depends on your luck."
Hey, you are really honest, and you don’t even bother to be hypocritical. He is worthy of being an outspoken and honest servant of the legendary hero.
Then, the two of us continued to wander around the Elf Forest.
Not long after walking, Achilles suddenly stopped, frowned slightly, and pointed to the southeast, and said loudly: "I have been following you like a thief for so long. If something happens, I might as well stand up and speak openly. , it’s much better than being a tortoise!”
"Huh?" I looked confused. Is there anyone following me around?
How do I not notice? !
Suddenly, several people appeared from behind a few trees in the southeast direction.
There were men and women among these people. They all covered their faces and heads, and wore camouflage corsets. Only their eyes were exposed. Their eyes were as silent as a deep pool, without any waves. The aura around them was gone, like bluestone without emotion. No wonder they just ignored it. I, who am very sensitive to breath perception, also did not notice their presence.
Seeing several people looking at me, I couldn't help but shudder. I subconsciously moved closer to Achilles and whispered, "These guys are not doing well."
Unexpectedly, Achilles shook his head and said: "No, I didn't sense any hostility from them."
No hostility?
That would be easy.
I took courage and asked, "Who are you, why are you following us, and what is your purpose?"
The person closest to me said, "We are members of the assassination team."
"Fuck!"
As soon as I heard the words 'assassination team', I was so frightened that I jumped back. I clenched my fists and entered a battle preparation state. I said coldly: "Are you coming to assassinate me?"
After a pause, I nuzzled at Achilles again and said, "Or is it him?"
"We are ordered to protect you two."
The man's words were like dry bread, tasteless.
I frowned and asked, "Whose order are you following?"
"We are ordered by Her Majesty the Fairy Queen to protect the safety of her grandson-in-law and the legendary hero attendant Mr. Achilles."
"Oh?" I raised my eyebrows and said to Achilles, "Are you armed?"
Achilles nodded.
"That's good," I said, "just watch them, and if there is any movement, it will be immediate. I will have a call with the queen's grandma now to find out what's going on."
As he spoke, he took out the calling crystal and started practicing the Fairy Queen.
Soon, the call was connected, and I explained the matter to her. The Fairy Queen laughed and said, "I didn't expect to be discovered so soon. Yes, they were sent by me to protect you."
"With Achilles by my side, I won't be in danger." I curled my lips and said, "Unless the other party appoints a whole team of national forces to assassinate me."
The Fairy Queen joked: "With your current status, you can really afford the price of national power."
"Don't scare me. I'm a coward. The power of the country is the trump card that the country deliberately hides. How can it be delegated just as it is said to be delegated? Besides, those who are hostile to me should have found out long ago. I have Achilles by my side. There are superpowers like Si, and they will never send national power that is as precious as a treasure to take risks just to assassinate me."
The Fairy Queen chuckled and said, "As long as you think too much, okay, give the call crystal to the person who is talking to you."
I cautiously stepped forward and carefully handed over the call crystal.
The man took the crystal, said a code word, responded a few times, and then handed the communication crystal back.
I took the crystal and put it to my ear. Grandma Queen said: "I have told them that I will not follow you anymore. However, the limelight has been very tight recently, so you have to be more careful."
When I heard this, I felt that the tone of the words was wrong. I immediately became concerned and asked in a low voice, "What happened?"
