In a dark and claustrophobic space, there is a magnificent palace.
Four people, No. 6, No. 7, No. 8, and No. 10, half-knelt on the ground respectfully.
In front of them was a luxurious and domineering throne, with a dark figure sitting on the throne.
Because the light was too dim, the outline of this black figure was blurred, and only a pair of scarlet eyes were projected.
"You should all know the consequences of mission failure, right?" A man's voice sounded in the darkness.
This voice was very plain, as plain as the daily chat between acquaintances. But this plain voice sounded like the roar of a devil to the ears of the four people, causing them all to break out in a cold sweat.
The Assassination Society is an extremely perverted organization that has almost zero tolerance for failure.
The Assassination Society will never allow any assassins to fail, nor does it require any failed assassins.
Since its creation, the Assassination Society's mission completion rate has been as high as over 99%.
So far, this branch alone has carried out thousands of assassination missions. However, the missions have only failed ten times.
And the ten assassins who failed in the assassination eventually died under the torture of the Assassination Society.
This is the Assassination Society, a place where only success is required and failure is not allowed.
"Branch President, please calm down. We had already succeeded in this mission. But unexpectedly, at the last moment, the woman suddenly appeared and saved the mission goal." No. 6 explained with fear.
The plain man's voice sounded in the darkness again: "That woman? Why did she help that boy?"
No. 6 shook his head and said: "I don't know the reason, but if she didn't show up, Lin Yun would have been caught in front of you by now."
The branch president's voice sounded again: "Is that boy's name Lin Yun? The name sounds familiar. Could it be that he is Lin Tianyang's son? I see... No wonder she wants to help that boy."
Seeing the branch president talking to himself, the killers below were all confused and had no idea what was going on. Could it be that Lin Tianyang had something to do with that woman?
After pondering for a while, the branch president said: "Since it is because of that woman, there is nothing we can do if the mission fails. I will bypass you this time."
If the assassins at the bottom of the ranking fail to perform their missions, no matter what the reason is, they will eventually die.
The assassins ranked closer to each other are different. They are all the top fighters in the branch. If they are executed because of a failed mission, it would be a waste of the resources invested in them in the early stage.
"Thank you branch president for your kindness!" The four of them respectfully clasped their fists and expressed their thanks at the same time.
The branch president added: "You just said that that boy's second martial soul has super powerful eye skills, and used it to defeat the White Bone Eagle King of the Ming Cult?"
The four people nodded repeatedly and replied in unison: "Yes, branch president, we have seen this with our own eyes."
As soon as the four of them finished speaking, there was a steady sound of footsteps.
A figure emerged from the darkness, walked slowly to the side of the four people, clasped his fists to the branch president on the throne and said: "I am very interested in that boy's eye skills. Please ask the branch president to send me to meet him this time.
.”
The four of them subconsciously looked towards the speaker. Because the light was too dim, the four of them couldn't see his face clearly. They could only see the spiral dart totem on his forehead and the number "5" below the totem.
The branch president glanced at this person, and then said in a calm tone: "I know you are also good at eye skills, but I don't want to make any mistakes in the subsequent tasks."
"So let's just let No. 3 go this time. I think among the killers in our branch, there is no one more suitable to deal with that kid than him."
No. 5 originally wanted to fight for it, but immediately shut up when he heard No. 3. Indeed, as the branch president said, there is no one more suitable to carry out this mission than No. 3, because No. 3 is completely the nemesis of the pupil technique.

…
After the fall of the Beiyan Kingdom, the territory of Beiyan became the base of the coalition forces.
Allied troops were stationed in every state and county in Beiyan. The state and county with the largest number of troops was undoubtedly Beicang County in the far north of Beiyan.
Beicang County is a crucial strategic location because it is not only the northernmost state and county in Beiyan, but also the northernmost combat base in the southeast region.
The Qianguo territory is divided into nine regions: east, west, south, north, southeast, northeast, southwest, northwest, and central region.
The edges of each region are connected by continuous mountain ranges, which are called dividing mountains.
The dividing mountains are not only steep and precipitous, but also have an average altitude of over 10,000 meters.
For ordinary people, the 10,000-meter peak is nothing more than an insurmountable chasm, and warriors under the warriors cannot pass it at all.
Even warriors in the samurai realm find it difficult to have enough energy to climb to the top, which is why regions are isolated from each other.
There are only two gaps in the dividing mountains on the edge of the southeast region.
If the southeast region wants to communicate with other regions, it must pass through these two gaps.
The first gap is in the west, connecting the southern areas.
The second gap is located in the north and connects the eastern area.
The second gap is located in Beicang County of Beiyan Kingdom.
It is no exaggeration to say that Beicang County is the pass in the southeast region.
The branch of the Assassination Society is obviously not in the southeast region. The 500,000 elites transferred to Beiyan by the Assassination Society are obviously transferred from the kingdoms in the eastern region.
It can be seen from this that all the kingdoms in the eastern region have probably become satellite states of the Assassination Society.
As long as the pass in Beicang County is blocked, the Assassination Society will not be able to dispatch the troops from the eastern region to fight in the southeastern region.
It is impossible to mobilize the army to fight, and just a few assassins from the Assassination Society, no matter how strong they are individually, will eventually be unable to defeat the four-handed force with two fists, and they will not be able to withstand the strong men of the major kingdoms taking turns to fight.
After all, there are more than a hundred strong Martial Kings in the eight kingdoms. Plus the strong Martial Kings of the two sects, there are at least no less than 150.
The one who came was a Wuzong-level killer. More than one hundred and fifty Martial Kings could kill him alive with chariot battles, not to mention that there was Lin Yun on the coalition side who could rival Wuzong.
As long as the troops from the eastern region cannot be mobilized, the coalition forces will have enough time to seek help from the western region and attract more forces to join the alliance.
Therefore, the coalition forces regard Beicang County as their top priority. In the border fortress of this state and county, a full 800,000 troops, the strength of an entire legion, are stationed.
The deputy commander guarding this legion was the once most powerful man in the southeast region—Marshal Qin.
In the half month since being stationed, everything in Beicang has been peaceful. There has not been any attack or harassment by any enemy.
And on a full-moon night in the middle of the month, an excited horn sound came from afar, breaking the calm that had been silent for many days...
