Chapter 2276 Conjecture
The assassin looked dismissively, and cast his cold eyes across Boss Ren and onto my face.
I held the flying knife and stood frozen on the spot, looking straight at him.
His eyes seemed to be looking at a dead person, and my eyes... Sorry, I can't see my own eyes without a mirror.
Ten seconds passed.
Half a minute passed.
One minute passed
Three minutes passed.
Finally, the assassin couldn't stand it any longer and asked suspiciously, "Why aren't you dead yet?"
I looked confused: "Why should I die?"
"You were hit by my flying knife, and the flying knife was highly poisonous. Could it be that your left arm and right leg are both prosthetic limbs?" He asked in shock.
"Have you ever seen such a lifelike prosthetic limb?"
As I said that, I raised my legs, shook my arms, and did a difficult Thomas spin.
However, just as I restrained my movements, a ray of silver light flashed past and stabbed straight into my throat.
Walking with the silver light is a group of black shadows, and walking with the black shadow is another group of black shadows.
Boss Ren is like a gangrene attached to his bones, firmly locking the assassin's figure, and is ready to counterattack at any time and at any time.
"Stop!" I shouted.
Boss Ren's body froze, his feet slipped, and he stopped suddenly. The assassin turned a deaf ear and waved his dagger, preparing to give me a gorgeous throat slit.
I admit that I'm not as fast as him, but don't underestimate my agility. Anyway, I achieved a B rating.
Some people may be curious, what will the agility value of grade B be?
Let's put it this way, within a range of ten meters, you can dodge rifle bullets without any damage.
With an agility value of this level, are you afraid that you can do it with just a small dagger?
I sneered and ducked sideways.
I only felt a cold feeling on my neck, and then the tingling sensation quickly spread to half of my neck.
He reached out and touched it, then put it in front of his eyes and saw that the inside of the meteorite iron gauntlet was covered with a bright red liquid, like the juice from a rotten persimmon.
hiss!
I took a breath and was slightly frightened: not only was this man extremely fast, but he was also more agile than me. Fortunately, Boss Renne was here, otherwise he would definitely not be able to do anything good.
The assassin stopped and looked at me with eyes as cold as ice, and the tone of his words was equally sinister and uncomfortable: "I had a chance to escape before, but this time, you will definitely die."
"I know you want to kill me, but please be more professional? You only stabbed the skin and muscles, far away from the carotid artery, how could you die?" At this point, I sneered: "If I were you, I would definitely I won’t talk nonsense here, and if I have that time, I might as well make up for it with a few more cuts.”
Hearing my relaxed tone, the assassin finally panicked: "Why can you still speak? Why aren't you dead yet?"
"Hey, hey, there are limits to curses, okay? Your tone bothers me a lot. I always feel like a harem who was abandoned by me, but I am obviously heterosexual and have no interest in same-sex love."
However, after I said so much, the assassin didn't seem to listen to a word. He squinted his eyes and stared at me like a fox. At the same time, he clenched the dagger in his hand again and bent his legs, ready to strike again at any time. one strike.
Turning my head, I asked Boss Ren in a low voice: "Can you persuade me to surrender?"
Boss Renne shook his head: "He is a very principled assassin. Once he accepts a task, he must complete it without stopping."
I can't help but feel sorry.
Although I admire capable people, I don't like capable people to be my enemies. Since I can't persuade them to surrender, I'll leave the body intact and bury it properly.
Taking a deep breath, suppressing my complicated emotions, I shouted to the assassin a few steps away: "You are a capable person, and you can predict what will happen next. I will give you a chance, do you want it?"
"what chance?"
"The chance of survival," I said seductively, "It would be a pity if a capable assassin like you died."
"Since you feel it's a pity, why don't you give me your life so I don't have to die."
"But I don't want to die either," I shrugged, and said, "It's so good to be alive. You can breathe fresh air, enjoy delicious food, admire beautiful women, and travel freely."
"Assassins have no freedom, only missions. Since I have been ordered to kill you, even if I die, I must catch you!" He shouted sternly.
"Isn't there a way to get the best of both worlds?" I looked embarrassed and couldn't bear to say, "I can survive, and you don't have to die."
"No," he said coldly, "The mission I received is to kill you and your family!"
After a few seconds of silence, I waved my hand feebly: "Thank you for speaking frankly, Boss Ren!"
"Zai" the thin figure took a step forward and said respectfully.
"Are you confident you can catch him alive?"
"No."
"Then...leave him with a complete body."
"yes!"
After saying that, his figure blurred, and Boss Ren turned into an afterimage, heading straight towards the assassin.
The assassin was shocked and drew out his knife to resist, but unexpectedly, what he encountered was a dagger wrapped in the power of transformation.
There was only a scream of crunching metal, and half of the sharp dagger was cut off on the spot.
The dagger was destroyed, and the assassin suddenly turned pale in horror, running wildly, trying to escape, but Boss Ren's figure was erratic, following him like a shadow.
He ran more than ten meters in one breath, but still couldn't get rid of the opponent. The assassin was so anxious that he returned with a few throwing knives.
Boss Ren was not someone who took things easy. With a wave of his robe, most of the flying knives deflected away, and the remaining few were dodged away by him in an understatement.
The assassin was about to throw the throwing knife again, but he saw Boss Ren stretched out his left hand and put it on his shoulder. The dagger in his right hand was slashing incessantly. The speed was as fast as lightning, and even I couldn't catch it completely.
After he sheathed the knife, he paused for a second, and blood like a fountain flew from everywhere on the assassin's body.
There was a pop, like a broken sack falling to the ground, and the assassin lay motionless on the ground, dead.
I stepped forward and said regretfully, "It's a pity that I didn't find out the mastermind."
"Yes, it's a pity" Boss Ren said melancholy.
"Can you find any clues on the body?" I asked.
"He never brings anything else with him," Boss Ren said, "If you want to find clues, you can only look at his worth."
"How to find it?" I asked curiously.
After holding his chin and thinking for a moment, Boss Ren said in a hoarse voice: "Among the professional assassins, he ranks among the top ten. He is expensive and cannot be hired by ordinary people. Therefore, ordinary guilds and organizations can exclude him."
"He has been wandering between Ai Rui City, York Han City, and Dashai City. The location for selecting tasks is usually limited to these three places, but this time he did not hesitate to travel far and come all the way to kill you. You can be sure that you will hire him. A person who not only has financial resources but also power.”
My heart trembled, and my eyes grew colder: "Could it be that the old Duke sent him to assassinate me?"
"Why do I want to kill you? Is it just to restrict the development of Moonlight City, or to regain the manufacturing technology of equipment enhancement machines?" Boss Ren shook his head: "Impossible, he will not do this. He knows very well that you are the righteous master of Dewey. You are an elder from a foreign tribe in Moonlight City, and you still have the Destroyer Legion in your hands. Once you are killed, Zefeng Continent will be in chaos, and he cannot bear the consequences."
