Chapter 66 Late Night Assassination

Arthur flashed out of the room and made a finishing gesture.

  The three Gel people who were guarding the doors of other rooms let out a sigh of relief. During the time when Arthur entered, they were more nervous than Arthur, who took action.

Different from Arthur and Arnold, who have been used to seeing death since childhood, Gold and Nine have never really killed anyone. There is a huge difference between a head-on fight and this kind of ruthless assassination.

As for Joan, no one knew his background, but the pretended relaxed expression in Arthur's eyes betrayed his experience.

Following the same pattern, Arthur and Arnold gently pushed open the door of the room that Gold was guarding. Just as Arthur was about to enter the room, Gold stopped him with his hand.

 "Let me come!" Gloria whispered in a very low voice, her eyes fixed on Arthur firmly and unquestionably.

 The Grand Duke of Ru's established his family through military service, and all five of Gold's elder brothers served in the army. Although Gold was an only daughter, Grand Duke Ross did not raise her completely as a girl, even though he doted on her. The strong family tradition cultivated Gold's strong character, so she got the title of "Rose with Thorns".

Arthur made a careful gesture and moved away from the door.

Gel crouched down and slowly moved to the bed in the room at an extremely slow speed, pausing for a moment after every step.

Arthur, who was following him, didn't rush him. Anyone doing this kind of thing for the first time would be nervous.

Ge Li moved to the bed, gently raising the silver short gun in her hand, looking at the young man snoring loudly on the bed but unable to put it down, "Maybe he hasn't done anything sinful, why should I kill him?"

Gold was struggling fiercely in her heart, and Arthur was watching quietly from behind him. No one could help her, and she could only rely on herself to get through the hurdle in her heart.

 The law of the jungle is immoral in itself, but it is the axiom of survival of the fittest on this continent. People only saw the cruelty of the war between humans and orcs, but no one felt guilty of the beasts they killed casually, just because these beasts were too weak, and no one cared about them.

The short gun in Ge Li's hand suddenly stabbed the man's chest.

 The tip of the gun penetrated the body, and the man suddenly sat up with a slight grunt. Gel was suddenly at a loss.

Ge Li failed to kill her with a single shot to the heart. This was just a normal physiological reaction of the human body to a sudden attack. Arthur behind Ge Li was already prepared for this. He reached out and covered the man's mouth and nose and pushed him down on the bed again.

The man began to struggle violently, and Gel reacted instantly. She pulled out the short gun and stabbed her again, and then pulled it out, and stabbed her again. Gel didn't know how many times she stabbed her. When Arthur grabbed her wrist, she was on the bed. The man was completely motionless, and his entire chest was a bloody mess.

Gold's eyes flickered when she walked out of the room with blood splattered on her body. I couldn't tell whether it was excitement or fear.

 The accident happened at this moment.

With a creaking sound, the door of the room Nine was guarding opened by itself, and a middle-aged man wandered out of the room.

Nine, who was in panic, did not make any reaction, but froze on the spot.

The middle-aged man almost bumped into Nine before he noticed her. The black mask also startled the man, "Who are you? What are you doing here?"

 Arthur instantly jumped forward from one side, stabbing the middle-aged man in the waist with the hunting knife in his hand.

The middle-aged man reacted almost instantly. While twisting his waist to dodge, he threw his arm and hit Arthur on the head. Judging from the fighting spirit bursting out of his hand, he was clearly a captain-level warrior.

If Arthur usually faced him alone, even if he could win, it would still take a lot of trouble, but today something happened suddenly, and Arthur attacked first. The man failed to dodge Arthur's knife, and the blade brushed against his waist. After swiping through it, the sharp blade attached with "sharpness" cut his waist in half.

Immediately afterward, Arnold's debilitating magic fell on him, and the palm he slapped Arthur became weak. Instead, Arthur got closer and grabbed his wrist, and with a strong thrust, his body fell forward. .

It was at this moment that Ge Li jumped over. The short spear in her hand pierced the man's chest from bottom to top, and the tip of the spear came out from behind.

 The dignified warrior-level warrior was killed by Arthur and the three of them in one confrontation.

 "Even, what are you doing?" There were shouts and voices coming from the house and people going down to the ground to get weapons.

"Fuck it hard!" Arthur shouted and rushed into the house.

As soon as Arthur entered the house, he was greeted by a cold light that went straight to the door.

Arthur swung his hunting knife upward to catch the knife coming from the opposite side. He raised his left hand and fired a fireball almost face to face.

The fireball hit the man on the opposite side, and the other man was so frightened that he jumped back at the fireball.

  Gold jumped out from behind Arthur, stabbing with her silver spear, "The plum blossoms are as cold as the snow!"

Ge Li knew she wanted to fight quickly, so she used a fighting spirit skill. Five points of cold light shook out from the tip of the spear, and it stabbed the man's chest like a blooming plum blossom.

There were continuous pop and pop sounds, and five points of cold light exploded in the man's chest. Each one had a wound the size of a fist, blood spurted out, and the body fell to the ground.

At the same time, the sound of the door breaking was heard outside the room, and the warrior in the other room broke the door directly and walked out.

Arthur was shocked. At this time, Joan and Nine outside the house were both magicians. They would be in danger if they were approached by each other.

Arthur only felt a flash of light outside the house, followed by a scream.

When he rushed out, he saw Joan squatting in front of an almost burnt corpse.

  "Is it okay? How did you kill him?"

"Suddenly a ball of light flashed so hard that he couldn't open his eyes, and then a burst of three bursts of fireballs, two scrolls were done. How about it, this young master is smart, right?" Qing raised his face and looked at Arthur with a proud expression.

"It's a ball of light and a ball of exploding fire. It makes such a big noise. Are you afraid that others won't notice that we are ransacking the business? Are you a fool? You are just a pig teammate!" Arthur resisted the urge to explode.

 "Do you need to tell me he's a fool?" Ge Li was also finishing her attack at the side.

Joan scratched her head and said slightly embarrassed: "When I was happy, I forgot that we were robbing."

Arthur said hurriedly: "Someone will come to check soon. Hurry up and find something valuable. Let's look for it separately!"

 "You haven't found that damn business owner yet?" Ge Li suddenly reminded.

"Perhaps one of these people is dead. Even if he is not there, it will be more painful for us to loot this place than to kill him!"

Knowing that time was running out, several people immediately began to work separately and search room by room.

 But what surprised everyone was that after a quick scan of all the rooms, not a single thing of value was found.

"Is the information wrong?" Ge Li began to feel unconfident. If this was not an underground trading house, a few people would have killed innocent people tonight.

"It's unmistakable!" Arthur shook his head firmly, and suddenly his eyes lit up, "They didn't put things on the surface. There must be a secret room or a secret door in the yard. Because they have to come in and out frequently, the secret door must not be hidden too secretly. The place."

Arthur woke everyone up with one sentence, and his eyes swept across the entire backyard, and finally landed on the rockery in the middle of the yard...
