Linton swept out in a circle, and the next second he found a man in black standing in the corner of the room. It was very easy to sweep the man, but the problem was that he had no idea when the man was.
Whoever came in didn't know how long the other person had been standing there.
Garsain has already experienced an assassination, so the surrounding security level is naturally at the highest level, but this guy appeared in the room completely silently. It is obvious that this guy is also an assassin.
And they are still very advanced, and some can hide their own skills.
"Master Duke, Master Sword Master, please don't be nervous. Allow me to introduce myself. I am the leader of the Black Hand Guild you mentioned before. You two can call me Dane." Before the two of them could speak, the black man here
The man in clothes said proactively.
"Come to surrender?" Linton asked.
"I'm here to clarify." The person who claimed to be Dane was wrapped in a black robe. It seemed that he had used some magic or the ability of his own equipment to prevent others from seeing his face. Although he looked very
Mysterious, but speaking in a very polite manner.
"Clarification? In other words, what happened this time was not done by people from your Black Hand Guild?" Linton asked.
"Yes." Dane said immediately.
"As far as I know, the Black Hand Guild has been framed by others before, but you seem to have dealt with those who framed you, right?" Linton said, "Does that mean it will be the same this time?"
"Yes." Dane nodded again, "Anyone who uses our name casually must pay a price. This time it is obvious that someone wants to frame this matter on us, so we have already started investigating and will definitely
I have given you two adults an explanation, so please wait for a while."
"That is to say, you still don't know who the person who assassinated me is?" Gaseon asked.
"This is still under investigation," Dane said.
"As far as I know, the people in the Black Hand Guild are also very well-informed in terms of information. It has been several days since this incident, and you still haven't found this person?" Gaseon asked again.
"Your Excellency, an organization that allows a saint to carry out assassinations is definitely not that easy to investigate." Dane said, "You should also know that ordinary saints will not participate in such things."
"But you are such an organization." Linton said, "You can ask for the Holy Level. If I am not wrong, you may be a Holy Level yourself. Now you are the one who is most suspected."
"Master Juggernaut clearly knows that if we did it, I will never deny it. Our Black Hand Guild has always been like this." Dane said.
"Then according to your investigation, who is the most suspected person now?" Linton said, "Besides you, what other assassination guilds can afford to hire saint-level people? You should tell me."
"As far as I know, no other assassination guild can hire a saint-level assassin." Dane said, "So this assassination incident is indeed aimed at us. But Lord Sword Master, I have a guess. Although
There have been no saint-level assassins except us before, but this incident is likely to be caused by the stimulation of some special reasons."
"Special reason?" Linton asked.
"After all...your strength, Lord Sword Master, may really scare some people, forcing them to use some special means." Dane said.
"Oh? You mean it's against me?" Linton said, "But if it's against me, what's the point of assassinating my nephew? Even if you kill my nephew, there's still a big difference between killing me."
"After all, the Duke's current status is extraordinary. Lord Sword Master, do you think all this may be related to the Continental Congress to be held later?" Dane said.
Linton probably understood what Dane meant. The Continental Congress was obviously a meeting held by the Holy Level in response to his own threats. In this meeting, whether it was the Holy Level Association, other kingdoms, or other forces
He has to fight for some rights of speech and so on. And his current foothold is not only his own strength. The emperor of the Holy Empire of Yilan is his wife, and the Melowei family is also his foundation. These are his own forces, and
That is to say, some people want to cut off some of their own wings and reduce their right to speak.
The previous saints were saints after all, so they were embarrassed to be assassins. However, after they showed their combat power far beyond the saints before, the situation may change. These saints may also be shameless, Dane.
That's probably what it says.
To be honest, his statement is quite credible, because Linton himself had already guessed this. The Black Hand Guild was so exposed that anyone who thought about it seemed to think that they were the first suspect.
, but just because of this, Linton doesn’t really believe that they did it. After all... Now Linton’s combat effectiveness has been proven by the Saint-level Association. The Black Hand Guild can afford to hire Saint-level killers, but they dare to mess with the front.
Provoke Linton?
As an assassin organization, Linton felt that this group of people would not be so reckless. Assassination seeks to kill with one hit. If you really want to attack yourself, you will definitely do it with planning and a fatal blow. This is the first one to jump out.
It shouldn't be them. So seeing Dane appearing in front of him, Linton felt that the credibility of what he said was quite high.
"So what you mean is that you are going to wait until the Continental Congress to find out who is planning all this?" Linton asked.
"From the current point of view, this may be the case." Dane said, "Our people have investigated this place several times, and there are no clues left at all. It is probably impossible to trace the assassin through this aspect, so we can only
When the Continental Congress comes and we take a look at the situation, we can probably guess who organized the assassination."
"Lord Sword Master." After Dane finished speaking, he bent down and said, "We also want to find out who is framing us in this matter, so at this point, our purpose is the same as yours.
Can we temporarily form an alliance now?"
"What do you think? Can you believe them?" Linton asked Garsain next to him.
"I don't even know if they are members of the Black Hand Guild, so how can I trust them?" Garsain spread his hands and said, "You said you are from the Black Hand Guild, are you?"
"I think it's easy to prove this." Dane said with a smile, "The easiest way is to ask the Duke to give us a name, and we will be able to prove it naturally. To express our apology, this
This commission is free of charge.”
Garsain instantly knew what the other party meant, which meant that he would directly help him assassinate a person. Moreover, it seemed that he didn't care who the person was or what his identity was. As long as he named the person, the other person would die. This confidence,
He said that he really believed what the other party said.
"I heard that your guild's commission fees are very high, so I'm not making a lot of money," Gassern said.
"This is our sincerity." Dane said with a smile.
"Oh, then I don't have any gifts?" Linton asked with a smile.
"Of course there is, Lord Sword Master." Dane continued to say with a smile, "Since I dare to appear in front of you, I have naturally prepared a gift for you."
"Such a good person?" Linton was a little surprised. He really had his share. He didn't expect it. Of course, he was also a little curious about what the gift the other party was talking about was.
"Lord Sword Master, there must be two people you want to find now. One is the culprit who assassinated the Duke, and the other is the tiger who was unlucky enough to protect the Duke and has escaped now, right?" Dane.
He said, "We haven't found the mastermind yet, but we have found the tiger's current location."
"Oh? This is really sincerity." Linton was a little surprised. This Black Hand Guild is really good at being a good person. Because of his sincerity, Linton was embarrassed to attack them.
"I wonder if you want its head directly, or are you planning to tear it alive yourself?" Dane asked.
"You take action?" Linton asked, "Are you confident that you can deal with that tiger?"
"Talk about it head-on... I really don't have that confidence, but our guild is not designed to deal with opponents head-on." Dane said.
Dane’s meaning is very simple. It is easy to dodge open guns and hard to defend against hidden arrows. The method of assassinating the guild is naturally not too bright. It is not just direct assassination, poisoning, sneak attacks, etc. are all very effective methods. Nine
Although the frontal combat power of a level-level monster even exceeds that of a saint-level one, it is estimated that it may not be able to block it when faced with assassinations that have no lower limit.
"I still want to tear it up myself." Linton thought for a while and said.
"Then let me accompany you for a walk," Dane said.
"I believe your words more and more." Linton said. Yes, this Dane is indeed a smart man. It is not that simple for him to take the initiative to accompany Linton. Think about it if the other party intends to divert Linton away.
, and then continue to assassinate Garsain? It is not yet certain that the Black Hand Guild is not the mastermind behind it. Dane can obviously let his men lead the way for Linton, but he took the initiative to accompany Linton, which was obviously for consideration
Linton became suspicious.
Of course, this may also be the opponent's strategy, such as leading Linton into an ambush trap, or letting other of his subordinates assassinate Garsain. He may have some means of escape. But Linton is not afraid of these traps.
Yes, it doesn't matter at all. As for Garsain, as I said before, it doesn't matter much if he is really dead. Linton happened to have his hand broken and was still thinking about whether to change his body.
Linton now wanted to see if Dane here was telling the truth, or what kind of medicine he bought in the gourd. After thinking about it, he said, "It's not too late, let's set off now."
