"Why are you here?" At this time, Esdeath also saw clearly who the person next to him was, and he was even a little happy when he spoke.
Linton hadn't seen Esdeath for some time and took a look at her condition. He always felt that her current appearance seemed to be closer to the way she was before she changed her body. If we say that she was eight points when she was first reborn.
Similar, at least nine points similar now.
Is this something that comes from the heart? Is it because her dressing habits and the like have slowly made her move closer to her original appearance, or is it because she has modified her body in some way? Linton doesn't know very well.
Looking at the half ice sword held in the opponent's hand, this ability was...familiar. Linton could recognize that the opponent was using telekinesis, which meant that the opponent had awakened the ice element. Considering that she originally used
It's an ice-type skill. There's nothing strange about it. It's familiar.
Previously, the opponent's ice ability seemed to be something similar to that of a blood successor. Linton asked Asuna to study it to see if it could be restored, but it seemed that there was no result. But now that the opponent has awakened the ice element, it doesn't matter.
So anxious. From what she has sensed so far, her strength has recovered very quickly. No wonder she has been doing so well in the military camp recently.
Although she has recovered a lot, it is obvious that the assassin on the opposite side is stronger. If Linton had not arrived in time, the assassin's blow just now would have at least seriously injured her. So now Esdeath is probably close to the holy level.
level?
He wasn't quite sure that was because he didn't know whether the assassin on the other side was a saint. After all... he was too weak, so weak that Linton couldn't tell the difference. He was not a combat power detection device and could read 100 and 101.
the difference between.
"Arrest people first." Although they hadn't met each other for some time, Linton certainly didn't have time to reminisce with her at this time. As he said this, he took a step forward and rushed directly in the direction where the assassin flew out.
"Okay." Esdeath also followed with one step. It is not difficult to see that she has become very skilled in using telekinesis. The instant speed increase of this step is a test of basic skills. Although it is a little slow, she can still keep up.
Linton.
Following the direction in which the opponent flew out, Linton soon arrived about 200 meters ahead. Looking at the fallen assassin in front of him, Linton frowned.
Yes, the person in front of him is dead. Of course, this was not caused by Linton's kick just now. Although this kick sent him flying more than 200 meters and broke several large trees as thick as a bowl, Linton
The force here has been very restrained. This was not intended to kill him in the first place. It is obviously more useful to catch him alive.
At this time, Esdeath also followed. She frowned when she looked at the assassin on the ground. She lowered her body and took a closer look, and said, "It should have been poisoned. He was a death warrior type assassin."
“Are we going to send dead soldiers directly this time?” Of course Linton also guessed the cause of the other party’s death.
"This time? Do you know who sent these assassins?" Esdeath said and also pulled off the other party's cloak, "It's an orc, someone from the Madrama Empire across the way?"
“Don’t make trouble, even the Madrama Empire cannot train such level of death warriors,” Linton said.
Esdeath nodded slightly. During this time, of course she also learned about some situations in this world. Strong people are respected in all worlds. The orc on the ground is obviously a strong person, and he is called a saint here.
.As a saint, you have your own pride, and you also have to sacrifice your life. That strong person is willing to do the profession of death warrior.
“Then where did he come from?” Esdeath asked.
“Tell me about today’s situation first.” Linton did not answer, but asked directly to Esdeath.
Of course, Esdeath didn't hide anything, and immediately explained the situation she encountered. As I said before, Esdeath is now one of Marshal Tommen's adjutants. Because of his activeness and his own charm these days, this time
At that time, she could be said to be the default second-in-command in the entire military camp. And with Marshal Tommen's deliberate training, she is actually the one making the final decision on most things in the military camp.
Of course, her actual military rank is only an adjutant, and her camp is naturally next to Marshal Tommen. She was originally going to rest tonight, but as a cautious person, she will also keep some vigilance when resting.
Naturally, her way of vigilance is through reading.
Because of this power that does not exist in this world, she became the only one who discovered the invading assassin. When the assassin entered the marshal's camp next to her, she discovered him before the guards. She woke up and rushed to the side immediately
At the camp, it turned out to be a step too late. When they arrived, Marshal Tommen was gone. And when she found that the assassin had hit the target and ran away immediately, she had no time to do anything else. She started to chase him all the way, and she only just caught up when she got here.
of.
Linton nodded. This assassin seemed to be a real assassin. The few people who had fallen down in the camp before were only a few soldiers except Tommen. They seemed to be the guards of the camp. There was no direct conflict between the two sides.
, the opponent killed the target and a few guards and then retreated directly. If Esdeath hadn't discovered it, the alarm might not have been triggered.
After learning about the situation, Linton began to analyze. It was almost certain that the unknown assassin in front of him was a member of the mysterious organization he was tracking. In other words, they could control those saints to work for them through brainwashing. It is estimated that the assassin in front of him was
This is also similar to the situation of Seglas before. According to their style, this guy may be the second son of some family, and then he is grateful to them for being favored by the organization, so he will have this kind of mistake immediately.
A dead man who committed suicide without hesitation.
But what exactly happened today? The information provided by Esdeath made Linton consider the consequences. If she hadn't discovered the assassin, the marshal's body would have been discovered later, and the circumstances in which it was discovered were probably
Like this. Asuna attacked the Church of Light's camp, and if something happened, of course someone would report it to Marshal Tommen, and they would find his body that had also been assassinated.
Didn't he say that he obviously wanted to put the blame on his head? Let Asuna be the blame for the assassination. After all, anyone would think that Asuna first assassinated the marshal and then attacked the church, right?
.In other words, has the other party discovered that Segras is fake? Or is he planning to give up Segras completely?
Linton is inclined to think that the other party discovered that Segras was pretending, which is not difficult. Although Asuna should be strictly pretending to be Segras from her appearance to her voice to her habits, she is a robot after all.
As long as the other party observes for enough time, they will probably be able to find flaws. It may even be that there was something wrong with Segras's confession at the time, or there is some authentication method that they don't know about.
According to Linton's guess, the situation may be like this. The other party discovered that this Segras was fake, but probably did not know the purpose of this fake Segras and the person behind it, so he used this trick to ask for directions.
Now that the Imperial Marshal has been assassinated, and the Bishop of the Church of Light has also been assassinated, do we need to track down the murderer? Of course we do, we must go to great lengths to find him. You say no? Then the other party doesn’t know what’s going on behind the scenes.
The people are the Empire and the Church of Light.
Of course, not only that, the assassination of the marshal also affected the situation of the war. It is estimated that this news will soon reach the ears of the orc army. After being beaten and retreating, they heard that the other side's marshal was dead.
Can you seize this opportunity?
Furthermore, the point that caused the conflict between the ZHENG government and the Holy See within the empire still exists. Regardless of whether the imperial marshal is dead or whether the bishop of the church was assassinated in your military camp, the empire is responsible.
In short, looking at it this way, this plan is simply killing three birds with one stone, and it is surprisingly powerful. Linton found that he was really being led away, and he kept things simple. This organization was a bit difficult to deal with.
It seems that it has been a bit inflated recently. After all, the strength is too strong. Linton really hasn't looked at this mysterious organization seriously. He thinks that he can just find someone to kill their whole family. Positive A. But they won't confront you at all, Ming.
It's easy to dodge a gun but hard to defend against a hidden arrow. It's still very uncomfortable for people who are playing dirty tricks.
“It seems like I really need to spend some time to have fun with them.” Linton said with a smile.
Although the current situation seems to be a headache, Linton suddenly discovered that this organization is actually quite weak. Very simple, although the strategy of throwing stones to ask for directions seems to be good, the problem is that it also shows that the other party does not know.
Where is the road?
Looking at the dead assassin on the ground, the road has obviously been cut off. It is obviously impossible to find out any information about the organization from this dead man. In other words, the organization has now escaped into the shadows again.
After creating a lot of chaos now, the next step is probably to see the reactions of all parties.
Linton's purpose is to lure them out, but relying on the previous method is probably not going to work. If you want to attract them, what you need to know now is their real goal. The enemy who created all this trouble should be targeting the empire.
, want to subvert the empire? Thinking of this, Linton suddenly had an idea.
"That's it..." Linton said with a smile.
“What’s wrong? Do you know his identity?” asked Esdeath next to him.
“I said, will you lose the battle?” Linton suddenly asked.
Esdeath was obviously stunned for a moment, and then he immediately seemed to understand what Linton meant, and said with a smile: "Yes, how do you want to lose the battle?"
"The military camp on the Holy See's side should have been attacked. You go back now and forcefully demand to take over the command. It's best to say hello to the other adjutants and have a fight. I'll go find the people from the Holy See and let them come.
Trouble." Linton said.
