Although it was not the first time that Levi killed someone, it was the first time that he killed someone in his own bedroom.
He looked at the corpse on the ground and took away the black metal crow's mouth mask. He could no longer see clearly who it was with the split head.
"It's really unlucky. I have to change my room to sleep in another room tomorrow."
"But I really don't know this person. He should be a killer hired by my enemy. The problem is, I am a teenage kid who has never provoked anyone. Who would send someone to kill me?"
For a moment, Levi began to recall his life of being kind to others.
In the end, he only came up with two people who might have had a motive to kill him.
The first is Pastor Abraham. After all, he just rejected the church some time ago and did not give the superior pastor a good look. He may indeed kill him.
The second possibility is the Duke of Montenegro and the two earls closest to the Duke of Montenegro, the Earl of Silver Shape and the Earl of Blood.
After all, these people occupy their own territory, and although they may not care on the surface, these people know that if one day they really grow up to be like the Black Snake Knight, they may take the territory back, so
They just kept doing nothing and made the Black Snake family completely extinct.
"But, if that's the case, why did they let me go in the first place? This doesn't make sense." Levi murmured to himself.
"Or maybe it was Abraham's old dog who did it."
"In short, apart from these two, I should not have any conflicts of interest or grudges with anyone else."
"Could it be that the Wild Boar Gang did it? The person who robbed me before now directly wants to fuck me?"
"However, the Wild Boar Gang, a dark and evil force in the underground world, should not hire killers, and they are not afraid of losing their reputation."
Levi paced back and forth in the room, a little irritable.
"I am so low-key and tolerant. Why, why do you still want to kill me?"
"No, I have to find a way to find out who wants to harm me. Once I know...if I can fight, I have to get rid of this person, otherwise I will have trouble sleeping and eating."
My own castle is surrounded by high walls and has soldiers patrolling it all the time.
This killer can get in so easily, he is definitely not weak, and he is good at sneaking.
Thinking of this, Levi took out a knife and cut open the killer's chest. On the killer's heart, he saw an illusory black gaseous object like an octopus lurking on it, with countless capillary-like blood vessels.
Tentacles rooted in the heart.
"Haha, Seed of Life! Sure enough, this man is an official knight!"
"Sending a formal knight to deal with me, the mastermind behind it must be unusual." Li Wei's face was uncertain.
With the death of the killer, the octopus-shaped life seeds began to slowly dissipate.
Levi watched silently, it was his first time dissecting an official knight.
As expected, it was similar to the situation in his body, and there was a similar life seed in his heart.
However, my own life seed is in the shape of a snake, and this life seed is in the shape of an octopus.
Levi took off all the clothes on the killer, looking for some clues.
Eventually, he found a pamphlet hidden in the lining of the killer's clothes.
The booklet only has a few pages, and the cover shows a figure hidden in the shadows. The painting style is dark and strange.
"'Hymn to Shadows'."
Li Wei thought silently in his heart and opened the booklet.
The content inside is similar to some religious books. The entire article introduces a god named:
Lord of Shadows.
"Lord of Shadows? Never heard of it." Levi shook his head.
Although the belief in gods in this world cannot be said to be overwhelming, there are still quite a few.
In addition to the [Father of Heaven] believed in by the Holy Glory Church, there are also the [Mother of the Earth] from the Earth Church, the [Ice and Snow Goddess] from the Winter Church, the [Storm Emperor] from the Church of Storms, and the [Eternal Fire] from the Church of Eternal Life.
], the [King of Ten Thousand Dragons] of the Dragon Church, and the [Lord of the Stars] of the Church of the Stars. These seven are the seven righteous gods believed by the people of the seven countries in the world today.
The reason why the seven righteous gods are called righteous gods is simply because their churches have huge influence in the seven countries and they call themselves righteous gods.
In addition to these seven righteous gods, the only beliefs that Levi knew were the [Lord of the Wilderness] of the Wilderness Brotherhood, the [Lady of Silence] of the Silent Monastery, and the [God of War] believed by some war enthusiasts.
etc.
Therefore, it is normal for Levi not to know the Lord of Shadows.
In essence, this call for death is an organization with a very small number of people, and there are not many people who believe in the Lord of Shadows, so it has not spread at all.
In the past, Levi's belief in these gods would have been indifferent, but since confirming the existence of wizards, he discovered that some myths and legends may not be as simple as he imagined.
This world can have wizards with supernatural powers, so why can't it have more powerful gods?
Li Wei still respected the gods.
Although he does not believe in these, he respects the beliefs of others, but the prerequisite is not to harm himself.
After Li Wei read the Praise of Shadows, he discovered that the last page of the booklet actually recorded the inheritance diagram of a breathing method.
The inheritance diagram is similar to the Breathing Technique inheritance diagram that Levi had obtained before, except that in the middle of the little figures is a rough sea. In the center of the sea is a huge sea monster similar to an octopus, which looks a bit like a previous life.
A sea monster legend spread in some parts of Europe: Kraken.
"??There are also people who carry the breathing method inheritance with them?"
Levi is also funny.
What he didn't know was that the Siren's Breathing Technique was the most common breathing method among members of the organization Voice of Death Birds. This organization would give some manuals with the Siren's Breathing Technique promoting the Lord of Shadows to those they thought had potential.
However, the children of civilians who do not have ancestral breathing techniques are trained in their killer skills from an early age, and resources are provided for them to practice the Siren Breathing Technique. This ensures that the organization always has fresh blood injected into it.
The Siren Breathing Technique is a breathing method that is extremely suitable for assassination. It focuses on the flexibility and agility of the body. After practicing to the official knight level, it can also change a person's body shape through principles similar to the Bone Shrinking Technique. If paired with some makeup
With skills, you can even change your appearance.
In fact, if the Phantom Knight underestimated the enemy, got too close to Li Wei, and was caught off guard by Levi, even if Li Wei was an official knight, it would not be that easy to kill the Phantom Knight.
Levi put away the "Praise of Shadows" which recorded the breathing method inheritance chart, along with the crow's beak mask, the nice-looking dagger, and other assassination tools.
Levi tore the worthless killer's corpse into pieces and threw it into the blazing fireplace. He watched the corpse burn in the fire, making crackling sounds and the smell of burning. Vaguely, Levi seemed to see a trace of dancing wildly.
The eight-clawed shadow rose up in the flames and gradually disappeared. When he looked at it intently, only a piece of charred skeleton was left.
