Chapter 133 Assassination
Chapter 134 134. Assassination
Luo Ning had never thought that assassination would happen to him.
After all, his territory was located in a remote mountain area, and it would take a lot of effort for the assassin to run over, not to mention that the mountain was closed due to heavy snow two days ago, making it difficult to pass.
How much perseverance must this assassin have to brave the severe cold and snow and pass through the white forest to take his life?
Luo Ning didn't know, and he didn't have time to think about it.
Facing the ruthless assassination of the man in black, he couldn't hesitate in a hurry. Luo Ning directly took out the guardian armor spell scroll given to him by Lu Lans and injected magic power.
Buzz~
The khaki armor covered Luo Ning's whole body when the sword came. The assassin's sword slashed on the armor, making a harsh metal collision sound, causing the armor to vibrate violently.
"Level 5 spell scroll, haha, the people of Wushanbao really have some capital."
The assassin sneered, "But it can't save your life."
He kicked over.
After using the spell scroll to block the attack, Ronin finally got a chance to breathe. At this time, he was no longer as panicked as at the beginning, but surprisingly calm.
Facing this kick, he dodged quickly, and at the same time, he tiptoed to the ground and killed the opponent.
This morning, Ronin had consumed all his attribute points after receiving the warm gift package of No. 7.
Not only has his magician level progress reached the advanced perfection, but even the knight level progress has reached 280/300, which is a high-level peak knight.
Now his physical fitness, strength, and spirit have been greatly enhanced, even against McKen.
Although the direct confrontation was only one or two moves, Ronin had already judged that the assassin was very strong and should be a bronze-level knight.
The two knights fought in a small room, fighting spirit and sword light were wantonly slashing the tables, chairs and walls. If they continued, the room might not be saved.
Ronin's performance had also disrupted the assassin's state of mind.
"Senior knight, you are actually a senior knight!"
After fighting continuously, the assassin had figured out Roning's strength level.
He never thought that the intelligence was wrong, and it was so wrong.
This former waste marquis's eldest grandson is not only not a waste, but has become a senior knight in the blink of an eye, and his combat level is not low at all.
A seventeen-year-old senior peak knight, a waste?
What a joke!
"Retreat!"
The black-clothed assassin took advantage of the recoil of another sword and flew backwards quickly. The sword light swept out and broke the wooden window for viewing, and jumped down from the window.
It was just three floors, which was not a problem for the bronze knight.
The assassination failed, and the intelligence was wrong. He had completely lost the initiative. If he continued to fight, he might be in trouble when the guard knight came.
"Want to leave?"
Roning tapped his feet on the ground and flew out of the window.
But in the two or three seconds before and after, Roning glanced around and did not see the other party's figure.
"Invisible again?"
Ronin cast the wind of detection, and as the wind element's vision changed, he caught the opponent's figure landing again - at this time, the assassin was standing against the wall without moving.
What is he doing, playing hide-and-seek under his nose?
Or does this person think that "the most dangerous place is the safest place", and hiding under his nose can avoid being discovered?
Ronin didn't care about these. Before landing, he raised his fist and punched down. The flame fist light whizzed away like a bomb and landed accurately at the hiding place of the opponent.
The black-clothed assassin didn't understand how his stealth was discovered. He didn't have time to think about it and could only dodge quickly.
And as his body moved quickly, the invisible state was broken.
In a trance, Ronin understood that the opponent's invisibility effect should be limited. Either he couldn't use his fighting spirit, or the body's movements couldn't be too violent or too fast, otherwise he would be out of the invisible state.
Boom~
The roar brought by the fire fist bombardment shook the castle under the night, breaking the quiet atmosphere of the usual day.
At this time, the shocked Gallen finally reacted. While calling for the master, he ran to the window and shouted outside:
"Assassin!"
"There is an assassin!"
"Come quickly, there is an assassin!"
The panicked shouting alarmed the servants in the inner castle and the guards on the city wall.
"What's going on?"
Chahar, who was tidying up the tableware, was stunned for a moment. After hearing the sound clearly, he immediately panicked and ran outside.
At the same time, outside the hall of the outer castle, Irene, David and others who had finished one hour of teaching today were leaving the "classroom" easily, and they were all in a very good mood.
The former was because they finally finished today's class, and the latter was because they had finished the tormenting class.
But just as they were talking and laughing and preparing to go their separate ways, the movement in the inner castle made them stunned.
"What's going on?"
The three knights looked at each other and didn't hear clearly.
But the guards on the tower had already conveyed a clear answer, the lord was attacked!
The three people's souls were all gone, and their faces changed drastically.
"Protect the lord!"
"Protect Lord Ronin!"
They drew their swords and rushed to the inner castle at the fastest speed.
"Brother Ronin was assassinated?"
Erin's eyes were full of fear and panic, and her face turned pale. She followed David and others to run towards the inner castle.
But suddenly she realized that it was useless for her to go in. The combat ability of a junior magician was very weak and useless.
"Guard officer!"
She turned around quickly, "Yes, go inform McKen!"
McKen has been personally training the cavalry and guards recently, so David and the others have an hour to learn in the evening.
Perhaps because of nervousness or worry, Irene's feet were a little weak. When she went out of the outer castle gate, she fell to the ground with a lot of mud on her body and face.
But she didn't care about it at all. She stood up quickly and wanted to inform McKen as quickly as possible.
Fortunately, she ran less than a hundred meters to the west and saw McKen riding a horse and running quickly.
"Irene, what's going on?"
McKen asked quickly, "Why is there an explosion in the castle?"
"Assassin, there is an assassin!"
Irene shouted: "Go and save Brother Ronin!"
McKen's face changed drastically. How could there be an assassin in the castle?
He had clearly deployed guards at the gates and towers. How did the assassin manage to hide from the guards on the towers and walls and enter the castle without any hindrance?
"Sir, should I be okay?"
McKen jumped off his horse, his fighting spirit burst out, and rushed into the castle at the fastest speed.
...
Not to mention the reactions of servants and subordinates, Roning was already fighting with the black-clad assassin.
Although he was not as strong as the other party, the effect of his swordsmanship learned from Rydar and McCann during this period of time had already been shown.
Roning was now like a weakened Rydar, and the assassin in front of him was like a weakened version of Baron Leisen.
Roning suppressed the other party in swordsmanship.
The man in black had several questions in his mind at this time, and the one that he could not understand the most was how his ability to be invisible, which had always worked in the past, became useless in front of the baron in front of him?
"I didn't expect that the outside world's evaluation of you was all wrong!"
The black-clad assassin knew that a long battle would not be good, and suddenly a black aura rose from his body, like a burning flame.
These flames gradually transformed into a black snake on his long sword as the black-clad man moved.
"Embrace of the venomous snake!"
When he rushed towards Roning, the black snake on the long sword roared and soared into the air, turning into a terrifying giant with a length of four or five meters and a diameter of one or two meters wide, swallowing Roning in one bite.
The dark and deep atmosphere enveloped Roning, and the venomous snake quickly eroded the protective armor with strong corrosiveness.
The khaki armor had experienced several collisions, and now it quickly dimmed under the erosion.
Roning quickly propped up the Dou Qi armor, and at the same time waved the Liuyan Sword, using the third-level fire attribute fighting skill Fire Cloud.
With the blessing of the Flowing Flame Sword, the power of the dense fire cloud was amplified. The scattered fire clouds were like molten iron sparks that exploded in all directions, colliding with the dark venomous snake.
Rumble~
The collision sound continued, and the storm generated by the fighting skills of both sides swept around. The servants and guards who came to help from the outside were also frightened and hesitated. Only David, Wharton and Dandy, three junior knights, rushed into the battle group.
The black light and the red fire crushed each other, and the two people in the battle group were torn by the violent energy and retreated again and again.
Luo Ning only felt that his blood was surging, which was not very good, but he was not injured.
The only pity was that the protective armor left only a faint shadow under the erosion and impact, and it should be dissipated.
On the other hand, the other party seemed to be in a bad condition.
"You three retreat!"
Luo Ning held the Flowing Flame Sword tightly in his hand and ordered David and the other two who wanted to join the battle group not to act rashly.
These three were all junior knights, and were no match for the assassin. Going up to help would only make things worse, and they might even risk their lives.
"My Lord!"
David and the other two were somewhat unwilling.
"Leave this assassin to me."
Roning's eyes were fixed on the other party. He would not let go of the man who almost took his life.
His fingers traced the spell pattern, and Roning cast the "speed" magic he learned from the Storm Wolf's magic core on himself.
He kicked the ground with his feet, and the whole person turned into a stream of red light.
The assassin was startled by this scene, "What's going on? Why did he get faster?"
