Chapter 4 Assassination

PreviousBack to directoryNext
"Am I right? Kiora was killed instantly?"

"Has his fighting spirit awakened?"

After a long time, the people around him began to discuss, but their attitude was obviously different from just now. Of course, the people who laughed at Linton before now no longer dare to laugh at him. Not only that, the people around him now dare not look Linton in the eyes.

, seeing Linton turning his head, they all quickly turned their heads.

"Is there anything else? Or are you going to take me to jail?" Linton was too lazy to care about these melon-eaters, but turned to the three city guards next to him. These three were all Qiola's men, and they had talked about Linton's money together before.

Those foxy friends.

The three people were obviously frightened and stood there in a daze without daring to speak. Kiora was stunned, so what else could they do.

"Take this guy and get out of here, and remember my words, I'll give you ten days to collect enough money to pay it back," Linton said.

The three of them hurried to the place where Kiora fell. When they saw that Kiora had been beaten beyond recognition, his face was so distorted that his mother probably didn't even recognize him. She didn't dare to stay.

, the three of them picked up Kiora and left. When the people around him saw this situation, they slowly dispersed. Although they didn't say anything, everyone understood that the strongest person in the town had been replaced.

.

Of course, Linton actually has a lot of questions in his mind. The authenticity of this system has been confirmed, and it can indeed increase his strength, but the question is... what exactly is this system? Where did it come from? A short time ago

What is the situation of time travel?

"Young... Young Master." At this time, Uncle Ek also stood up from the ground. Although his stomach was probably still hurting, he couldn't care less about it and immediately asked: "Have you awakened your fighting spirit?"

"Do you think it looks like it?" Linton asked.

"This... the old servant doesn't know either," Ek said.

"I know you want to go back, but even if you awaken your fighting spirit at the age of 19, do you think the master's family will take me seriously?" Linton asked.

"This..." Eck was very happy at first, but when he heard Linton's words, he was also thrown a bucket of cold water, because there was really nothing wrong with it.

"Do you know the motto of our Mellow family?" Linton said suddenly.

"Huh?" Ekko was stunned for a moment. To be honest, he has served the Merloway family for decades, and it seems that he has never heard of any family mottos in the Merloway family. Just now, "Yes"

"Debts must be repaid" was definitely nonsense that Linton said casually. Now Linton asked again, how to answer this. After thinking about it, Ek decided to follow Linton's thinking and said: "Debts must be repaid?"

"Nonsense, where did our family get such a motto?" Linton said.

"This..." Ek looked at Linton with a confused face, and the meaning in his eyes probably said, "You also know this."

"The motto of our Meloway family is to strive for self-improvement, which means don't care too much about other people's opinions and strengthen yourself..." Linton said with a pious look.

"..." Ekko was a little speechless. What the hell is this? There is no such family motto at all. Can you make up another one?

"Are you really okay? Do you want to see a doctor... or a pharmacist?" Linton asked, looking at Ekko who was still protecting his stomach.

"It's okay. I'm used to being beaten. This is a small injury." Ek said.

"Master...what's going on?" At this time, Radnor, who had gone to call Linton before, arrived home. Of course he couldn't understand what happened when he saw the situation at the scene. He had seen Captain Chiora coming in a menacing manner.

, they are leaving now. Did they give money, but their family probably has no money. They can’t raise it with 10 silver coins. Looking at the scene again, why did the wooden shed at the door collapse? Did they take action? What happened?

ah.

"Go buy some meat and have a good meal today." Linton looked at Radnor, took out some money from the package and said.

"Huh? This money..." Radnor was really confused. Shouldn't all the money be given to Chiola? Where did the money for selling the meat come from?

"Go." Ekko here also smiled and said.

Although he didn't know what was going on, Radnor went to buy something. On the way to buy things, the news about Linton's defeat of Kiora also spread. The town was not big to begin with, and although the word-of-mouth method was not efficient,

But it's enough here.

After learning about this, Radnor was really shocked. In his opinion, this was really impossible. Chiora was the captain of their city guard, and he knew the opponent's abilities best. Although Linton

A little stronger than him, but still far behind the captain. Why did this suddenly turn around?

Rushing home in a hurry, Radnor immediately asked about it. Linton smiled slightly: "Do you know our family's motto?"

Eke, who was cooking next to him, felt a thump in his heart, thinking that this was about to start again.

Sure enough, Linton quickly said: "A gentleman hides his weapons and uses them when the time comes. It means that it is a fact that I am awesome, but I don't need to tell you. You can experience it yourself, do you understand?"

"I don't understand, but it sounds amazing when I hear it." Radnor said he didn't know how powerful it was.

"Let's eat." Ekko didn't know what was going on. Linton had hardly said a few words in the past month, but today he suddenly felt like a different person. Not only was his strength incomprehensible to him,

He also started to make up nonsense for no reason, and Radnor was stunned for a moment. If he hadn't been from the Merloway family, he would have thought that the Merloway family had so many mottos.

Ekko didn't ask any more questions, and the three of them started to eat. During the meal, Linton also asked a few questions, and then he realized that his family's financial situation was really worrying. Let alone 10 silver coins, it is estimated that it would be difficult to come up with 5 silver coins. At present,

The family's only source of income is the leather workshop behind their house, and now they don't even have enough money to buy raw materials. Thinking of this, Linton really wants to kill Kiora. Although there is little hope, he still hopes that he can

Pay some money out, otherwise why would you keep him?

"By the way, young master, I almost forgot." Halfway through the meal, Ek suddenly said, "The mayor of the town, Mr. Tyrwin, has returned. It seems that he also brought a letter from the master. He asked someone to inform you to go there when you are free.

."

"Letter from the master?" Linton didn't know much about the Meloway family. At least he had never met anyone in the Meloway family. Most of the things he heard about it were from Ek.

That's right. Of course, he doesn't have any memory of his own body. To be honest, he doesn't want to be associated with the Meloway family, but it's too exaggerated for you to say that he won't get the letter.

"I know, it's late today, let's go tomorrow." Linton nodded and replied.

After dinner, Radnor's work was over, and he went home directly. Only Linton and Eck were left at home. There was not much activity here at night, and there was not much spare money to buy lamps and candles for lighting. It was pitch dark.

, go to bed early and get up early. Linton lives alone in a relatively clean room on the second floor, while Ek makes a large bunk on the first floor.

The two fell asleep early. Although a lot of things happened today, Linton was a person who fell asleep as soon as he touched the pillow. He fell asleep immediately. However, in the middle of the night, a black shadow opened the door on the second floor.

Through the window, he entered Linton's room.

"Fourth son of the Merlot family, you are a bit strange." The black shadow whispered something, but it did not wake up Linton on the bed. After speaking, the other party pulled out his weapon, and the long sword was illuminated by the moonlight.

Emit a cold light.

There is no doubt that this person came to assassinate Linton. Looking at Linton sleeping soundly on the bed, the other person directly raised his sword and swung it down.

""Hostile target detected, confirmed that the host is in a state of unconsciousness, and turns on the automatic combat mode."

At this moment, Linton on the bed suddenly exerted force and moved his body a step to the left, avoiding the opponent's blow. The sudden action also stunned the assassin. Before he could recover, Linton suddenly straightened up.

He sat up from the bed, then slapped the bed board and rushed towards the other person.

"Huh? Well..." Linton had just woken up at this time, and the picture he saw was of him throwing himself towards the opponent. He looked really confused. What was going on?

After figuring out what was going on, Linton had already grabbed the opponent's sword-holding hand, and then stretched it out in a very standard posture. This was obviously an attempt to disarm. Because Linton's strength was so amazing, the assassins on the opposite side were exposed.

A surprised expression.

"No, what's going on?" At the same time, Linton couldn't help but ask, "Assassin?"

He could probably see the other party's dress clearly. What else could this outfit mean? There was an assassin in the house? Who sent him? The first thing Linton thought of was Kiora, but in the next second, he ruled out this option.

He heard a soft chuckle from the other party, and suddenly there was a flash of light on his body, and Linton's hand was inexplicably bounced out. Before it was over, the other party followed up with a kick, and there was a loud noise, and Linton's whole body was kicked out.

He hit the wall and fell directly from the second floor of his house.

"What the hell? Dou Qi?" Although Linton has never seen a dou qi user, he has always heard from Ek and the others. Judging from this situation, the other party must be using dou qi. Since the other party is a dou qi master, he is definitely not Qiola.

This kind of person can afford someone. He is just the captain of the city guard in a border town. What qualifications do he have to hire a fighting spirit master to assassinate him? So who sent him?

There was a "bang", and just as he was thinking about it, Linton's body had already completed a flip in the air. He landed in a very standard posture, removing all the momentum. Only then did Linton remember that he had entered an automatic combat state where he could not control his body.

. But it's very strange. This state was clearly not activated when he fought Kiora just now. He thought it couldn't be activated here, so why was it activated again.

"Please host to provide more combat information." Suddenly the voice said.

Linton thought for a while, and estimated that the other party didn't know what Dou Qi was. He had just shouted, and it might think he knew. But he really didn't know anything. But he understood one thing now and shouted directly:

"Run!"
