Chapter 535 Some of Rudys people fell into the trap and were ambushed
"The magic barrier I used to guard was not triggered. It seems that there are magicians among the people who came to assassinate this time, and they have a certain level."
After hearing what Alice and Kirennu said, Rudy immediately picked up his wand and quickly entered combat mode.
As for Sylphy in his arms, she appeared in front of Ariel as quickly as possible, also holding a wand and looking around with a wary expression.
This forest is very large, and because of the night, the surrounding visibility is extremely low at the moment, which also causes Rudy and the others to fall into a very passive state.
The opponents are all assassins who are proficient in assassination. Dark night is their best protective color. In other words, they have long been accustomed to such an environment, so they choose to attack at this time.
Compared to the other side, Rudy and his friends have rich combat experience, so only Rudy, Alice and Kirenu are the most capable.
Although Sylphy and Luke are bodyguards, they don't have much experience in fighting with others, and more often than not they have fair and square confrontations. Faced with this kind of real life and death fight, they are obviously at a loss.
As for Ariel... forget it, the other party is a second princess, who is originally the target of protection. She has skills, but she really can't be expected to have any fighting ability.
"Boo-boo-boo-boo!"
Accompanied by bursts of piercing sounds coming from the forest, several arrows suddenly shot at Rudy's group at tricky angles, and among them, Ariel was the one receiving the most attention.
If Rudy and Sylphy hadn't been able to use chantless magic, otherwise, judging from the speed of the bow and arrow, ordinary magicians might not have even finished chanting the spell, and they would have died in hatred.
"This cannot continue like this. We have been in a passive state, and the situation will become increasingly unfavorable to us!"
Rudy first used magic to block the bow and arrow fired by the opponent, and then fired back at the opponent with a "Rock Cannonball".
But the terrifying power of the "rock cannonball" even blew up the big tree holding the two of them together, but the previous archers had already left that place early.
Faced with the enemy's behavior of fleeing thousands of miles away without a single hit, Rudy quickly understood the opponent's intention.
After realizing that their team was quite strong, the opponent planned to kill them!
The forest is pitch black at night. The opponent is good at fighting in this environment, but Rudy and the others are not.
Currently in the forest, the only ones with the ability to pursue these people are the werewolf Kirennu who have a keen sense of smell and are familiar with fighting in the forest.
Alice may be able to do it with her powerful swordsman senses, but once Alice and Kirennu enter the forest to pursue them, their defense will become weak. This is not impossible.
The opponent's tricks are enough to drive the tiger away from the mountain.
And just sticking to it is not a good idea for them at the moment.
The enemy is in the dark, and they are in the light. The opponent can wait for work, but they have to tighten their mental state at all times and beware of assassinations and attacks that may appear at any time.
Even if Rudy and Sylphy's magic power is consumed enough, the other party's constant harassment and blows will be a huge blow to their mental state.
Originally, being a magician is a profession that consumes a lot of energy. If you are in a state of mental stress for a long time, even if the magic god comes, you will not be able to withstand it for a long time.
And Rudy is quite worried, this is just the beginning, if the other party comes with this wave of harassment every night after they rest...
No matter how powerful the prey is, it will fall into a state of exhaustion and weakness after being consumed by the beast.
"Really, I hate this feeling of being helpless. Kyrenus, please go into the forest with me and kill these rats.
Rudy, you should stay here to protect them, and keep being beaten passively. This is not my fighting style."
Alice glanced at Rudy, who was still in a state of thinking, and directly pulled out the magic sword Finger Fold and the magic sword Throat Flute. She called to Kirenu beside her, and then rushed directly into the dark forest.
.
Under normal circumstances, Alice is still willing to follow Rudy's command. Although she knows that Rudy is not as good as Wood, to some extent she has to admit that Rudy is far better and smarter than most people.
But now a short time has passed and Rudy has not come up with an effective method, so Alice can only solve the problem in her own way.
Looking at Alice who was acting without authorization and Kylienu who was helplessly following, Rudy stretched out his hand and was about to stop them, but there was no sign of Alice or their backs in front of him.
"Really, in the past two years, Alice's strength and figure have grown, but only her impulsive character and IQ have remained almost unchanged.
I hope this is not a deliberate plan to distract them, otherwise..."
"Otherwise, you will be in danger, right?"
Before Rudy finished speaking, a middle-aged man's voice from a shadow in the forest took up what he said.
"The famous orc sword king in the Boreas territory and that dangerous little girl should be the most dangerous guys in your team.
It's great that we can successfully lure them away, otherwise it would be quite difficult for our assassination operation to succeed."
Along with the voice of speaking, there were about twenty people wearing various styles of black clothing.
These people range from tall to short, male or female, and you can't tell from the weapons they hold, but they also have various professions.
The person leading them at the moment was a rough man with a one-eyed patch and a cross scar on the left side of his face. It was the same person who had just spoken to Rudy.
"I'm very curious, if you have been hiding nearby, how did you hide it from Kyrenu's sense of smell and Alice's perception.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The number of people who appeared in front of him was beyond Rudy's expectation, so his face at the moment was a little ugly, but he still asked himself
The biggest question in my mind.
"Please, we are a team of professional assassins, okay? The magic barrier at the beginning can be lifted by our magicians.
As for the keen sense of smell of the orcs, this is not the first time we have encountered such a guy, so we naturally have corresponding methods to deal with it.
That little girl's perception was indeed very sharp and tricky. Sean had used his stealth ability before, but she was still discovered and hacked to death with a sword.
So we can only use special potions and magic items to hide our presence and figure. You must know that these things are not cheap at all... but compared to your prices, they are certainly not worth mentioning."
Just as Rudy expected from the beginning, the leader of the assassination team had long sensed that Alice and Kirenu were not easy to deal with, so he spread bait farther away in an attempt to lure those with a keen sense of smell.
Kyrenus and the others left.
Their team has a total of about fifty people, not more than twenty. The reason why Kirennu only smelled the scent of more than twenty people was because they planned to let Kirennu discover so many people from the beginning.
If Alice and Kyrennu were not deceived and lured away, the leader of the assassination team planned to use the method Rudy had thought of before to continuously drain Rudy and his team until they were exhausted.
Fangs revealed directly from the darkness.
After hearing each other's words, Luke and Sylphy realized how naive they had been before. They had always thought that the attackers were attacking from the front, but they ignored that they were actually assassins, so helpless.
So it's their job to kill the opponent with all possible means.
"How much it cost to hire your people, I can pay double! As long as you give up the assassination of me."
Assassins are a group of desperadoes who pursue profits. Seeing that they have fallen into the opponent's plan, and the situation is now in a state of outnumbered enemies, Ariel, who is protected at the back, also said the same at this moment.
"Oh, then I would like to know, how much money can Her Royal Highness, the second princess of the Kingdom of Asra, spend to buy her own name?"
When hearing the other party's answer, Ariel also showed a relieved expression. Since they can negotiate, there is no need to fight. Moreover, judging from the current situation, their side may not have an advantage.
Wood and Dragon God have been guarding them secretly? Ariel cannot completely confirm this, and it can be solved with money. Ariel thinks it is good to let Wood and Dragon God continue to be the trump cards in secret.
"Since you were sent to assassinate me, you should also understand that I am now a strong candidate for the throne of Asra Kingdom.
As long as you are willing to leave, I can guarantee that after I become queen, I can not only pay you twice the salary, but also reward you with territory, and..."
"Your Highness Ariel, are you playing tricks on us? Not to mention whether you have a chance to become the queen of Asra Kingdom, if you really become the queen, will you still keep your promise today?
Forget it, I was just teasing you anyway. We are also a team of assassins with some professional ethics. Do you really think that we will do double-dealing?
Regardless of whether you have money or not, when you die, it will all be ours. After all, the employer only said he wanted your lives, but he never said he wanted anything else."
At the command of the leader of the assassination team, more than twenty people behind him rushed towards Ariel and the others with cruel smiles on their faces.
The individual strength of these assassins is not very strong, but even if they are not as good as S-level adventurers, they can still be regarded as the top players in the Asra Kingdom, and they are also extremely good at working together.
Seeing the assassins rushing forward, Rudy reacted the fastest and raised the wand in his hand. The arrogant Water Dragon King fired a "rock cannonball" and directly hit the body of the swordsman who was rushing forward.
Completely penetrated.
The opponent's armor made of fine iron was as fragile as paper in front of Rudy, with no resistance at all. The opponent even didn't react until he died. Why didn't the opponent's magician use magic without chanting?
, and the power is so powerful!
However, just after Rudy killed one of the opponent's assassins with one instant magic, and thus shocked everyone on the opponent's side, he was just about to use a loose version of "Rock Cannonball" to kill more people,
But a sword light suddenly fell beside him.
"It seems that I made a mistake before. Not only is that red-haired girl very dangerous, but you, brother, are also a powerful character.
What's going on with the kiddies these days? They all look like they've just grown up, but are they all so powerful?"
There is no doubt that the person who attacked Rudy and was dodged by him was the leader of the assassination team, the one-eyed man from before.
What people didn't expect was that the opponent was actually a "Sword Master" level player, and he was very skilled in the use of the Northern God-style swordsmanship. At this moment, he was almost chasing Rudy and slashing, without giving him any chance to use magic.
Don't look at the fact that Alice is the Sword Emperor, and Wood and Rudy's family and friends are either Sword Masters or Sword Masters, so they think that "Sword Masters" are very good.
Regardless of whether it is magic or swordsmanship, once one reaches the "holy level" level, he has already entered the ranks of the strong.
Don't forget, Paul was just a "senior swordsman" before, but he has become a well-known S-class adventurer leader in the adventurer circle.
Of course, this is also related to the fact that Paul has mastered three swordsmanship schools, and his strength far exceeds that of ordinary advanced swordsmen.
But it is undeniable that humans who can reach the "holy level" are already the so-called leaders. Even serving as the knight leader of a kingdom is completely problematic.
In fact, Rudy's current opponent is named Razan. The opponent was indeed a soldier instructor in a kingdom. However, because of something that happened, he was abandoned by the kingdom where he was. He was so frustrated that he
That’s when I took the path I’m on now.
The reason why these assassins present are so perfectly coordinated and have such outstanding strength and combat experience is because these people were once subordinates of Razan and were also soldiers.
In terms of strength, Razan, who is only at the level of "Sword Master", should be far from Rudy's opponent. Randolph, who he faced in the Wanglong Kingdom before, is the real troublesome existence.
But the crux of the matter is that Razan was not alone. There were two other senior swordsmen and an archer who attacked Rudy with him.
Rudy tried to distance himself from the opponent in order to gain time to use magic, but Razan and the other two senior swordsmen knew his intentions and kept chasing him.
Even if Rudy used the ability of "predictive eye" to temporarily seize the three people's siege loopholes, and just opened the distance and planned to use magic, the archer in the distance would shoot a bow and arrow at the first moment, interrupting Rudy's attack.
Cast a spell.
Coupled with the reason for the night compatibility, the physical abilities and intuition of magicians were far inferior to those of warriors, so for a while Rudy was in a state of being exhausted when faced with Razan and the others.
