The sun is shining brightly at noon, looking out through the window of the sanatorium. The walls are shiny white, the trees are green, and the clothes of pedestrians are cool.
Claire left because something big happened this morning.
Dark gold level hunter, one of the shadow candidates, Lion King Soth was attacked.
Moreover, it was not just a simple ordinary attack. Instead, assassins comparable to the level of Shadow Hunters took action! If it weren't for the dead soldiers sent by the royal family to protect Soth to delay at the critical moment, I'm afraid Claire would have heard it now.
The latest news is the death of Lion King Soth.
In this assassination, Soss did not die, but he also paid a heavy price. His left arm was severed and the injury was not serious. Even if there is a skilled extraordinary doctor in the royal family who can reattach the injured arm, it will definitely be far away.
It is far less useful and flexible than before. It can be said that after the assassination ended this morning, Soth's strength was damaged and his threat was greatly reduced. Solomon the Thorn and Claire the Siren became the biggest winners and targets of suspicion.
Yes, as soon as the news of Soth's assassination and injury came out, many reasons for the assassination spread within the Dark Hunting organization. But without exception, at least two-thirds of them pointed at Claire and Solomon.
Even if it wasn't done by the two of them, it was done by the forces behind them. As for Card repairer who had just submitted the badge of honor, basically no one suspected or paid attention. After all, what can a black and bronze hunter do?
Even if the royal family named Kaxiu, no one would believe it. Not to mention, the royal family is now confused about this morning's assassination. Which force was responsible for this?
Feileng Cui, central city, interior of the palace.
In a palace building filled with the smell of medicine, Soth walked out of the room with a bandage on his left arm and a gloomy expression. Following him were more than a dozen energy users with medical abilities. Men, women, old and young.
Yes, everyone's face is a little pale due to excessive use of their abilities.
They have tried their best. Soth's severed left arm has been saved, but the flexibility is not as good as before. I'm afraid it is only one-third of its original strength. If it was an ordinary broken arm, so much source energy would be lost.
If you go together, complete recovery will not be a problem. However, when the demon's sickle slashes down, it is not only a physical cut, but also a mental cut.
For a strong man of this level, every move and every move contains courage and will. Physical injuries can be healed, but the soul cannot.
Half an hour later, in a quiet secret room.
Soth smashed the iron sandbag in front of him with one punch, and the iron sand inside exploded with a bang, turning into raindrops and falling to the ground with a crackling sound.
"Damn it! Claire! Solomon! Who is it!!!"
Venting his anger, he raised his right arm and lowered it like a hammer. He punched the iron rod in front of him and bent it into a ball.
The five thick fingers pinched the iron ball, and the bones made a cracking sound.
Soth knew that he was being targeted, and by an organization that knew him well. The first was the Shadow Assassin Organization, a top assassination organization that actually had a close relationship with the royal family and was considered half of Soth's thugs. But today
In the morning, the headquarters of the Shadow Assassin organization was captured, and several gold medal assassins and Shadow Assassin leaders were all killed. At the same time, Soth's most capable subordinate, the middle-aged man Gary, was also killed by the assassin.
In addition, he was assassinated, and the three things came together. The person who planned this operation was undoubtedly an organized and premeditated force. This force was very familiar with the situation of the royal family and had excellent intelligence. It was also confident and not afraid of the royal family's revenge.
In the end, Shadow Hunter-level assassins can be dispatched! The only things Soth can think of are the Parliament and the Dark Hunter organization.
That is, his two old rivals, Claire and Solomon.
As for Bai Kui, and the old hunters who may be behind him. It’s not that Soth underestimates them, this neutral group is still much worse than the parliament and the dark hunting organization. The old hunters can send a shadow hunter level
Killer? No kidding, Soth eliminated it decisively.
"You can't compete with me, so you're playing dirty tricks?!" Soth's teeth clicked loudly, like a lion chewing food. His eyes became fierce: "When my injury is healed, I will definitely retaliate.
color!"
On the other side, in the second area of Feilengcui, there is a dark training room.
Solomon, who had just heard the news, was stunned.
This is so damn efficient! Last night he just said that he would help him eliminate his opponents, and this morning he chopped off one of Soth's arms! Zhu Hun, and the forces behind him are indeed very caring!
The only pity is that Soth survived.
With just one left arm, although Soth's threat has been reduced, he is still one of the two competitors. Solomon suddenly felt that Zhu Hun was too hasty and should plan in detail and pick the best time before taking action.
.Wait a minute, the plan was just mentioned last night, and he will take action against Soth this morning. Maybe in the afternoon, Zhu Hun will assassinate Claire again! No, he has to persuade him to think long term.
Solomon thought of this and immediately left the secret room.
When he found Zhu Hun through a special contact channel, Zhu Hun looked confused. He was still in the initial preparation stage, planning to collect Soth's daily action cycle. Soth had already been assassinated?
For a moment, he felt like he had no place to use his strength.
If this matter was not directed and performed by the royal family, then the only ones qualified to carry out assassination operations are the Parliament and the Dark Hunting Organization. Solomon is the candidate recommended by the Parliament, so it can only be Claire!
Solomon and Zhu Hun looked at each other and became wary.
One o'clock in the afternoon, District 7, Headquarters of the Dark Hunting Organization.
"This matter must have been done by the Hongli Council! One hundred percent certain!" A gray-haired old man stood up at the long table and said loudly.
"Of course, we don't rule out the possibility that it was directed and acted by the royal family. But the probability is relatively small. The secret will be exposed when Soth and others fight."
Next to him, a man dressed in a suit and leather shoes speculated.
"No matter what, this is a good thing. Although we are reluctant to admit it, Soth was indeed the most promising candidate to become a Shadow Hunter. Now that his left arm is injured, there are flaws, and his strength must have declined. In this way
As soon as we come, our probability increases..."
Another old man spoke and looked towards the end of the long table.
Claire was sitting there with a distracted expression on her face. Whenever she entered such a serious meeting room, she couldn't help but feel sleepy.
If possible, Claire would like to carry out the task assigned by her uncle to protect Bai Kui. She has already felt the benefits of this task. She can stay alone in the next room and be lazy and fish in an open and honest manner.
Claire has prepared snacks and novels and biographies.
Spend an unforgettable little vacation in a sanatorium.
The sun gradually sets from its high position in the sky at noon, and the light becomes dim, and is eventually swallowed up by clouds and darkness, turning completely into night.
Ka Xiu opened his eyes and came to the world of disaster from reality.
My feet are standing on the altar of resurrection, and they feel solid to the touch.
Crash...the pale flames circled all the way up from the top of the space.
The first floor of the asylum tower was completely illuminated.
Card Xiu let go of his right hand, and in his palm was a triangular badge like a pyramid. This was the hunter badge that the ghost exchanged for him.
Putting it in his pocket, Cardiff walked up the stairs to the third floor.
Activate the defensive array directly and let the light film cover the tower walls.
The disaster in the air was immediately driven away and filtered out.
Half a minute later, Card Xiu left the shelter tower and walked all the way across the City of Ashes. He came to the city wall where the ghosts left the world of disaster last time.
Wait a moment.
The swirling black lines on the city wall form an illusory passage.
Two figures slowly walked out.
One holds a huge scythe, wears a thick black robe, and has a sinister aura.
A man carries a knight's sword on his back, wears heavy armor, and stands as tall as a mountain.
"Ghost Man, Iron Knight... let's go, I will take you to the tower..."
Ka Xiu did things neatly and got straight to the point.
He jumped up, and the ghost man followed closely. Only the iron knight suddenly ran out in the alley, as if he was going to take the land route.
"Aren't you afraid of attracting the attention of a large number of dark creatures when you fly so high and run on top of buildings? I know something about Ash City. The Lord of Ash City is a very dangerous disaster-level dark creature. There are ten of them. Once
Being entangled by one of the clones, it is extremely difficult to escape."
The three of them stopped walking. The Iron Knight raised his head, and a deep voice came from under the metal mask. He looked at the two people on the roof on the right.
When Ka Xiu heard this, he turned back and glanced at the ghost man.
The ghost man shook his head: "Sorry, my negligence. I didn't make it clear to the Iron Knight. After all, his attitude has been ambiguous before..."
"Both of you, please be cautious. After all, this is a world full of dangers and disasters. If you are a little negligent, you may be doomed..."
The Iron Knight is still trying to persuade him kindly. It can be seen that he is very cautious.
A minute later, three figures flew past the top of the Ash City building. Although the movement was not loud, it was definitely impossible to ignore. If it had been before, dark creatures would have leapt up and swarmed up.
However, as soon as the dark creatures in the streets on the ground were eager to try and felt the terrifying aura of the leader, they immediately lowered their heads and hid in dormancy.
Some even hid in dark corners and shivered.
This is because Ka Xiu discovered the magical effect of the golem's aura. If he drives the golem's secret weapon in a special way, he can imitate a bit of the terrifying aura of the ultimate dark body. This aura is simply a kind of aura for dark creatures.
Terror and shock are the dangerous flavor of an apex predator.
Except for the disaster spirits, wild beasts are afraid to turn around and run away when they encounter Kaxiu.
This is an instinctive fear engraved in genes.
In addition, Ka Xiu also discovered a magical phenomenon. If he wraps his body with the spirit of a demon, the degree of disaster erosion will be greatly reduced.
It can only achieve one-third or even one-quarter of the original effect.
In other words, the time that Card Xiu can be exposed to the world of disaster has been greatly extended. It is about forty-five to sixty hours, two to two and a half days. This also means that he can explore deeper.
Such as the pale earth, such as the shelter towers in other areas.
Ten minutes later, the group safely arrived at the shelter tower.
The expression on the Iron Knight's face under the mask was a little complicated. The cooperation partner between him and the ghost this time was indeed quite impressive. He could clearly see those vicious dark creatures along the way, and his eyes became much clearer after feeling the breath of Ka Xiu. A pair of
The mouse saw the cat's appearance.
In addition to what the ghost man said before, there are no longer ten Lords of Ash City in Ash City, and now there are only four bereaved dogs that are hiding in Tibet.
The crystal core of Ash City Lord, who could continuously restore his clones, was stolen by the ghost. As for the six missing clones, they were all killed.
It's the one in front of me.
After all, Ash City is a small and remote area in the pale earth. Apart from the Lord of Ash City, there are no truly terrifying dangers. Ka Xiu has even eliminated the Lord of Ash City, so he can naturally run amok in Ash City.
The iron knight originally thought that the ghost man said that Kaxiu saved his life, which meant that he snatched food from the tiger's mouth from a powerful enemy and rescued the ghost man. Unexpectedly, the reality was that Kaxiu rushed forward and chopped off the tiger's head with a knife, and the ghost man naturally
saved.
The two concepts are not on the same level at all.
The stone door opened and everyone entered the shelter tower.
The ghost and the iron knight immediately felt the disaster in their bodies, and gradually expelled it. The effect of the shelter that Cardius said was true.
So, the two of them received the Kaxiu Demon Seed injection. The location was the little finger of the left hand. Even if there was an accident, the cost of cutting it off would not be very high.
After some rest, the first floor of the tower was illuminated by pale light.
The three of them clarified the main purpose of exploring the disaster world this time.
"Cemetery of the Undead"
As for the reason, of course, the Undead Cemetery is located in the southeast corner of the pale earth, relatively close to the City of Ashes. In addition, the black energy and bloody light can be seen from a distance. This feature is easy to find and is the simplest.
The only thing you need to be vigilant about is that there is a dark creature called Blood Slaughter in the Undead Cemetery. This is a type of disaster spirit with strong attack and combat capabilities.
The real world is different from the disaster world. The immortality of the dark creatures here has been greatly improved, and the disaster spirits are almost immortal. Any disaster spirit is a very troublesome existence for the souls of the same level.
This is why the Iron Knight was shocked when Ka Xiu killed seven disaster spirits in a row. That requires crushing strength and special means.
The two powerful forces of Nan Dou Boxing are undoubtedly the nemesis of immortality.
The reason why Card Xiu plans to search and explore the cemetery of the undead is because this place is likely to be related to the sages who created Nandou Boxing in ancient times. Perhaps, some secrets left behind by that time can be found.
It would be great if we could find traces of other Nan Dou boxing techniques there. Ka Xiu had a vague feeling that he might have gained something this time.
Coming down from the second floor of the asylum tower, Card Xiu held a roll of parchment in his hand, which was a simple map of the pale earth. With the soul's certificate and the induction of the asylum tower, he could find his position and direction.
