Chapter 360: God of Vengeance
The middle-aged man in Chinese clothes in the living room just now was just a stand-in. Although a large number of warriors and even magicians were prepared as guards in advance, the Minister of Finance of the Kingdom of Linton, who was in a high position, would naturally not put himself in danger.
The real Minister of Finance was actually the middle-aged man who was taken away by Maiev in the side hall with a shadow raid. It was obviously not an easy task to play the trick of escaping from Maiev, who was experienced in assassination.
Maiev's flash skill was almost without cooling, and she even used this skill when she was on the road. Therefore, within less than a minute after she had just dealt with the Minister of Finance, she arrived outside the next luxuriously decorated mansion.
Although the place was still heavily guarded, Maiev still entered and exited as if no one was there. It was almost a replica of the Minister of Finance. The owner of this mansion was quickly killed by Maiev's clean and neat killing. The masters of the guards also died together.
After changing assassination to forced killing, Maiev's efficiency did not decrease much. One after another, the princes and nobles of the Linton Kingdom died at Maiev's hands.
In fact, these poor guys were actually protecting their king from disaster. Maiev entered the Linton capital to prevent the Linton Kingdom from making an effective response to the invasion of the Dark Night Empire. Originally, it would have been enough to deal with Linton VII, but Linton VII was nowhere to be found.
Therefore, Maiev could only settle for the second best and slaughter all the princes and nobles in the Linton capital. In this way, even if Linton VII survived, the Linton Kingdom would not be able to operate.
However, after Maiev assassinated or forced nearly half of her targets, she encountered difficulties in the palace again. When the surviving princes and nobles found that even if they had set up a dragnet in advance, they still couldn't save their lives, they all hid shamefully.
Maiev could only sense the enemy's presence in a small range. Even if she killed everyone in the mansion, the target had already escaped from her residence and it was difficult for Maiev to find him. After failing to find the target several times, Maiev, who was a little anxious, made a decision.
This decision had a profound impact on the night elves in the near future. Although it was more of a negative reputation, it also made the night elves much smoother in the future war. And the watcher Maiev Shadow Song has become a name that can stop children from crying at night in the whole of Eslaze.
However, Maiev obviously didn't think so far at this time. She just wanted to complete her goal of paralyzing the high-level officials of the Kingdom of Lindon.
Maiev quietly came to a deserted alley in the capital of Lindon and showed her figure. After a few low chants, two red balls of light suddenly appeared in the void.
No, it shouldn't be called a ball of light. It's just a spherical object formed by the twisted and tangled filaments of red light. The red light that made up the light ball exuded a gloomy atmosphere, as if announcing a mood of resistance and revenge.
"Bang——" The two twisted red light balls quickly expanded, and then there was a light explosion. The light ball disappeared, and two tall black figures appeared in the alley. This was the Vengeance God summoned by Maiev after using her ultimate skill.
These two Vengeance Gods looked a little transparent, as if they were made of black mist. It can be vaguely seen that the Vengeance God and Maiev's outfits are very similar, and even the weapon in their hands is a ratchet made of blue light. It's just that the size of the Vengeance God is much taller than Maiev.
According to Maiev's strength, the two Vengeance Gods summoned each have the strength of a legendary peak one level lower than her. But the horror of the Vengeance Gods is not reflected in their own strength, but in the characteristic that they can summon the soul of revenge.
After summoning the two Vengeance Gods, Maiev took them directly to the nearest mansion.
Coincidentally, the mansion closest to the alley where Maiev summoned the God of Vengeance was the home of the Minister of Finance of the Kingdom of Lindon. After Maiev's violent killing, there were corpses and a messy crowd left here.
The sudden appearance of Maiev and the two Gods of Vengeance made the people in the mansion, which was still in chaos, quiet down instantly. Then, there was a wave of crying and shouting for their lives. Maiev was too lazy to take action against these guys who were not her targets, so she handed them over to the two Gods of Vengeance.
Although they did not have Maiev's convenient skills and their own strength was not as strong as Maiev, the two legendary peak powerhouses were still insurmountable peaks in the eyes of these people in the mansion of the Minister of Finance. It took less than two minutes for the two Gods of Vengeance to complete the killing mission.
Next, more corpses on the ground became the raw materials for the Gods of Vengeance to summon the Soul of Vengeance. Under a mysterious wave, the corpses turned directly into nothingness and condensed into a light ball similar to the red light that appeared when Maiev summoned the God of Vengeance, but it was much smaller.
The fear and hatred emitted by the corpses are the key to condensing into a red ball of light. Unlike in the game, where one corpse summons a vengeful soul, the number of vengeful souls summoned by the vengeful gods in reality is measured by the breath of vengeance.
Corpses with strong strength and more negative emotions before death can summon more than one vengeful soul. And corpses with weak strength and shallow negative emotions may even require several corpses to condense enough red light to summon a vengeful soul.
After ten minutes, the bodies scattered all over the mansion of the Chancellor of Finance had disappeared, without even a trace of blood. Instead, there were patches of black figures in the courtyard.
The image of the Spirit of Vengeance is somewhat similar to that of the God of Vengeance, but without the huge cloak and ratchet. Unlike the God of Vengeance, which is a melee unit, the Spirit of Vengeance can attack from a distance. Their weapons are similar to flails and meteor hammers, but in fact they are things like magic wands.
From the corpses in the mansion of the Chancellor of Finance, the two Gods of Vengeance summoned a total of 300 Spirits of Vengeance. The limit on the number of Spirits of Vengeance in the game has been relaxed a lot in reality. Each God of Vengeance can control 500 Spirits of Vengeance, and the duration of the Spirit of Vengeance has also become half an hour. Correspondingly, the duration of the God of Vengeance has also been increased to one hour.
The strength of these 300 Spirits of Vengeance is much inferior to that of the God of Vengeance, which is reduced by three levels - each Spirit of Vengeance is only as strong as Eslazer Gold Level. However, the horror of the Spirit of Vengeance is not reflected in their attack power.
In the game, neither physical nor magical attacks can cause any damage to the Soul of Vengeance, because their armor is invincible. I just don't know what the most helpless invincibility of the Soul of Vengeance will turn into in reality, and what kind of despair it will bring to the enemy.
Outside the mansion of the Chancellor of Finance, a large number of soldiers and strong men have gathered at this time. Before, the God of Vengeance only killed the humans in the mansion. After discovering the tragedy, the people outside quickly fled and notified the city guards who were searching for assassins in the entire royal capital and even the royal guards in the palace.
After all, it is the capital of a country, and the reaction after discovering the enemy is still very fast. Within ten minutes of the God of Vengeance summoning the Soul of Vengeance, the entire Linton King's capital was in action, surrounding the mansion of the Chancellor of Finance.
Although King Linton VII was not there, many royal children with real power were still alive, so even part of the palace guards were transferred to encircle and suppress the assassins who were causing chaos in the royal capital.
Moreover, the hidden masters in the capital also showed up one after another, doing their best for the country. Everyone was both terrified and angry about the mysterious enemy who broke into the capital and wantonly killed ministers and nobles, and they all wanted to tear Maiev into pieces.
Some of the princes and ministers who were originally targeted by Maiev and then hid also appeared outside the residence of the Minister of Finance. They felt that with such a large army, no matter how powerful the assassin was, it would be difficult for them to escape their hands, and they all wanted to see the assassin who made them panic was killed with their own eyes.
