Chapter 2463 Counter Sneak Attack
The lake is sparkling, fish gather in groups, and the scenery remains the same.
If you don't observe carefully, you won't notice any abnormalities at all.
After all, the sudden disappearance of the chirping of birds and insects is not that noticeable.
But this may seem like a small oversight, but in the eyes of experienced adventurers, it is a fatal flaw.
"Come out, assassin hiding behind the tree," the Fairy Queen said coldly: "Don't you really want to kill me? Don't you really want to subvert the regime of Moonlight City and destroy the long-standing harmonious situation? Then come on, Use your sharp weapons and head here——"
She pointed to the pit of her heart and said loudly: "Stab it here!"
His words were as magnanimous as a gentleman's, and his voice was as cold as the cold wind, but in the forest, it was still quiet, as if there was nothing there.
"Hmph." The Fairy Queen snorted disdainfully: "Don't you even have the courage to show your true face in front of an old woman like me? Or..."
She paused, then suddenly raised her voice and shouted sternly: "You have to kill me before you show up?"
The words fell, but there was still no movement for a long time.
The Fairy Queen raised her moonlight scepter and chanted a spell.
As the spell was chanted, the surrounding wind began to condense towards the Moonlight Scepter. In just a few seconds, a ball of basketball-sized and extremely dense wind-attribute magic took shape, and continued to greedily absorb the incoming wind magic from all around. of wind element.
As the ball became more solid, the power it could display became more powerful. In the next second, the ball spun and shot out, carrying strong winds and a terrifying speed that could crush everything, and blasted towards the southeast.
The moment the ball touched the tree, the unstoppable destructive force directly smashed the tree trunk into pieces and turned it into dust. However, the ball did not seem to get smaller at all, and its speed did not slow down at all. It was still crushing all the way unstoppably. past.
After the first tree turned into powder, the second and third trees were hit by a ball of light that was so powerful that it crushed more than 20 big trees. It just reached the end of the crossbow. Finally, it also erupted with a powerful force. The explosion blew all the vegetation within a few meters into pieces.
As the wind-attribute magic ball was crushing all the way, more than a dozen vague figures shuttled through the forest, trying to avoid this terrifying magic.
Although their lives were saved, their whereabouts were exposed.
The Elf Queen, who was already ready to go, would not miss such a good opportunity. She also took out her magic wand and chanted a spell.
Clusters of sharp magic arrows shot out of the air, whizzing towards the forest. The figure who had just stood had to change positions again. However, the number of magic arrows from the Elf Queen was too large, and some of them couldn't avoid it. There was a muffled groan, and two more screamed out in pain, directly revealing their whereabouts.
The Fairy Queen snorted coldly: "How dare you show your embarrassment despite your mere strength? Do you think you have a long life?"
After saying that, the moonlight scepter was raised again, the head of the stick was pointed at the forest on both sides, and a set of wind blades was instantly unleashed.
I have seen Yura use this magic before, but her wind blade is not comparable to the Fairy Queen's wind blade. She is at the machete level at most, while the Fairy Queen's is at the guillotine level.
The crescent-shaped wind blade went straight through the air, cutting down all the trees within two meters. Now, the assassins had nowhere to hide, and one by one they revealed their true colors.
Wearing light green tights of the same color, they held a crossbow in one hand and a knife in the other. Their solemn eyes were full of fear. They looked at the Fairy Queen extremely carefully and put on an expression as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
After seeing their attire and honor, I subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief: Fortunately, they are not my people.
But then I got confused. Didn’t I agree to follow the team at all times? How come I didn't realize where my people were at all?
While I was thinking about it, I heard a few crisp bang-boom-boom sounds, which was the sound of the crossbow string moving!
Immediately afterwards, I heard several sharp blasts piercing the air, which were the sonic booms caused by the crossbow arrows piercing the air.
To be able to produce such a sonic boom, the shooter must have used magic!
I drew my sword out of its sheath, and without thinking, I leapt in front of the Fairy Queen. I didn't need to raise my eyes to see. Just by the sound of the sonic boom, I already knew the exact location of the crossbow arrow.
Condensing the killing intent, he slashed with his sword, then slashed again, and then slashed again. He struck out several swords in a row, knocking down the crossbow arrows one by one.
I made a handsome sword move, and slowly lowered my arm, making a knife-drag gesture. In fact, I was complaining in my heart. The power of this crossbow arrow was really quite powerful. It made my wrist numb. I had known better than to act cool. I believe that with the Queen's grandmother's It's hard for them to hurt her at all.
An old and powerful hand rested on my shoulder. The Fairy Queen patted my shoulder with satisfaction and praised: "What a beautiful hand. It seems that you have worked hard during this period and your strength has improved a lot."
"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty," I responded without humility.
"I appreciate your loyalty, but it's just wishful thinking to hurt me with this inferior attack method."
The Fairy Queen sneered, and raised her hand to fire a magic missile. The missile was extremely fast and arrived in the blink of an eye. The first assassin was blown backwards without even a chance to react.
Fortunately, when they just shot the arrow, they all gathered the power of transformation. With the protection of that layer of power, they finally saved their lives. But looking at his painful expression when he got up from the ground, even though his life was saved, it was still... The injury was serious.
"Everyone has seen the difference in strength, right?" The Fairy Queen stopped her hand and said calmly: "If I wanted to kill you, I could kill all of you in just a few breaths, but now, I give you a way to survive. As long as you reveal the person behind the scenes, I promise not to hold you accountable and let you go. You only have one chance, life or death, you choose."
The assassins looked at each other in confusion, but no one replied. Each one of them clenched their crossbows and daggers, and their whole bodies glowed with a strong light of transformation power.
The Fairy Queen was not dissatisfied by their strong fighting spirit and went on a killing spree. She floated in the air with her hands behind her back and a stern expression, like a judge who controlled life and death.
In comparison, the group of assassins were like fish on a chopping block, full of tension and fear, but they could not escape the control of the queen's grandmother no matter what.
Under the pressure, one of the assassins finally couldn't bear it anymore. With a click of his fingers, he fired another wave of crossbow arrows that were imbued with the power of transformation and magic.
This time, their target is not just the Fairy Queen, but also the Elf Queen, Queen Medusa, Elder Scyna, the woman standing side by side with Elder Scyna, and even me.
I heard the Fairy Queen's low voice, "Protect yourself." Then, a force came over me and pushed me aside. By coincidence, I dodged two crossbow arrows that came from the darkness.
The angles of these two crossbow arrows were really tricky. They were so close that I didn't notice them yet. Fortunately, with the help of the Fairy Queen, I was able to avoid them.
Looking at the queens, they all condensed a layer of translucent magic shield to protect their bodies.
The crossbow arrows clanked on the ground, and none of them could hit.
