Chapter 564: Shadow Assassin (Asking for a Monthly Pass, Asking for a Subscription)
Soram couldn't guess that his series of actions that were not brains made the group of shadow thieves suspicious. If that group of shadow thieves directly sent a large army to besiege Solam, even if Soram could fight again, he would have to temporarily avoid the edge and retreat to the sea.
If a small number of elites were to be sent, Soram would not be too afraid!
In the afternoon of the same day, Soram sent Shalith and Nazel back to the ship, and at the same time, some of Wahid's men and sailors also returned to the ship, ready to take Solam back to the sea at any time!
Those who stay in the hotel are masters! Soram waited for the shadow thief to come to the door, Soram made up his mind, no matter how he moved, he would be turned upside down!
The shadow thief bullies people like this, Soram didn't intend to endure it, and he couldn't bear it! Since those guys dared to make such a request, it showed that the shadow thieves had a heart for Soram, so Soram estimated that it would be difficult for him to do business in Ascatra in the future.
In that case, it's better to just make a fuss! So that the shadow thief can't catch anything! I'm going to break a few of his teeth!
After night, everyone gathers in Soram's yard, and at the same time, Soram also sends Durham and Trism out on patrol, they are very good at stealth, and they are not afraid of sneak attacks when they watch.
At the same time, McCarthy also began to set up some magic circles in the yard! These magic arrays have no power, but they have two functions, that is, they can detect stealth and monitor!
Shadow thief, shadow thief, isn't the best thing to do is the assassin's method?
Maintain Solam's placement of a lot of invisible minions in the courtyard just to detect!
As night fell, the people around didn't know if they had been notified, and all the pedestrians around the hotel disappeared at once, and even the taverns around the hotel were empty today, which looked very weird.
*************
"Lord Edward, we have cleared the surroundings, and there is no ambush!"
In an alley next to the Spear and Roses hotel, Edward sat on a discarded wooden box with a small knife in his hand, listening to a report from an Assassin wrapped in shadow energy.
The knife flew up and down between Edward's fingers, and in the moonlight, it was impossible to see the movement of the knife, leaving only a metallic halo left on the blade, like a blooming metal flower.
"Check it again!" Edward didn't have any other expression, just said with his eyes closed.
"Yes!" After a sound of peace, the shadow around Edward suddenly faded a lot, and all the shadow assassins who had just gathered around Edward were sent out again.
When the shadow dissipated a little, the moonlight finally hit Edward, and I saw that Edward in the moonlight was still in the same position, not changing at all.
At the same time, at this time, other people can see his appearance, compared to his reputation, his appearance is not worthy of his prestige at all, he looks too ordinary, thrown into the crowd, no one will pay attention to him!
If there is anything different from others, it is that he is much more serious than ordinary people, and he is always expressionless.
Many people don't believe that such a serious person is actually a shadow thief, in fact, it is this constant restraint and seriousness that allowed Edward to become a legendary assassin at the age of 35.
Those who knew Edward well knew that the legendary assassin was extremely himself! Every day of training, resting and eating, except for the mission, is very punctual.
For example, when it comes to eating, his recipes are really not very rich, except for a small amount of fish and beef, most of which are vegetables and fruits, and a piece of unleavened bread, and a glass of water. Not even ice cubes.
His nutritional intake at every meal was strictly restricted by himself, and he was even more masochistic than the monks of Ilmat, the god of suffering, and he really didn't know how he managed to persevere after decades of living without any rest or relaxation.
It is this extreme self-discipline that allows Edward's strength to grow rapidly. He doesn't care about anything else, doesn't like enjoyment, and has no ambitions, he's only interested in his own strength. That's why Fitztimeler has so much trust in him.
And Edward also repaid Fitztier's trust, he will complete all the tasks given to him by Fitztierer perfectly, and he is always meticulous!
He knew that his brain was not as good as that of Feztier, so he did whatever Fezterle said. Since Fitztimeler said that Soram was not simple, and this provocation was definitely a trap, he believed it.
He has always believed that there is no big mistake in being careful, and only by being careful and careful can the chance of accidents be minimized.
After about ten minutes, the shadows around Edward became thick again! The shadow assassins are back.
The so-called shadow assassins are those assassins who are infused with shadow energy, they are half-shadow creatures, they were originally human, because of the credit of the shadow church, the shadow energy was infused into the body, and they became this half-shadow and half-human form.
In this form, these Shadow Assassins not only gain additional stealth and shadow hiding bonuses, but also greatly increase their vitality, gaining some immunity from any physical blows, and gradually recovering by absorbing shadow energy as long as they are not fatally injured.
Of course, the biggest advantage is that after the transformation, the life span will be greatly enhanced, and you can live for another 180 years.
Then, their ability to survive will also be greatly enhanced, such as immunity to toxins, they can go days without eating or drinking, and even the need to breathe will be greatly reduced!
However, the half-shadow physique is not all good, after becoming this half-shadow creature, these shadow assassins will lose a lot of human desires, for example, their sense of taste and smell will be completely degraded, and Tintin is useless, not that they have become impotent, but their primitive desires are gone......
Moreover, these half-shadow creatures are also very afraid of energy strikes, especially positive energy. (Shadow Energy Damage halved)
If that's the case, some power-hungry maniacs will rush to it, but in fact, there aren't many people who are really willing to transform into shadow creatures, because after transforming into such a half-shadow creature, it will be difficult to improve their strength!
Therefore, no one who still has a pursuit will transform into this half-shadow creature. However, there is no way to perfectly transform into a half-shadow creature in the world, but this method does not have the Lord of Shadows, and only the Night Lady Shar can.
Anyway, the Lord of Shadows is too young, and he has only been a god for a few thousand years, so how can he be compared to Sharby? This unfortunate god is obviously the King of Shadows, but the Shadow Plane is still in the hands of Shar, making this King of Shadows very unworthy of his name.
Moreover, the reason why the church of this Shadow King is so low-key is also thanks to Shar, the King of Shadows is also the King of Shadows no matter what, and he is born with the authority to control a part of the Shadow Plane, and if Shar wants to completely control the entire Shadow Plane, he must kill the King of Shadows.
Therefore, this Lord of Shadows can only hide in Tibet, and not confront Shar head-on at all! The same is true of his church.
Without further ado, anyway, due to the background of the Shadow Church, there is no perfect way to make half-shadow creatures, so we can only use the inferior Shadow Assassin like this.
"My lord! It has been reconfirmed, there is no ambush! "This report was exactly the same as the previous one, they walked around the neighborhood and didn't find anything out of the ordinary.
At this time, Edward finally opened his eyes, and at the same time put away the knife he was playing with.
"Action!"
As soon as the words fell, not only the shadow assassins, but also Edward himself disappeared in place. For a moment, the silence in the alley was restored!
**************
Just after Edward gave the order, Solam, who had been bored in the room, sat up from the recliner at once, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face: "But it's coming, I'm almost asleep." ”
Solam has set up a lot of early warning traps outside, and those traps are not the ordinary goods that are popular in the mainland today, but they are boutique traps produced in the distant Nessera era.
It's not so easy for today's Assassins to spot this trap! And Solam also put some ordinary early warning traps on the edge of those high-quality early warning traps.
Just now, one of the warning traps was triggered, and Solam immediately saw the visiting shadow assassin through the crystal ball on the table.
"Yes, it's kind of interesting, there are even half-shadow creatures, and this shadow thief is not in vain."
When Loris's heard the words of the shadow creature, she looked at Soram with some concern, although she hadn't heard much of the shadow thief when she was in Cloudsdale, but Nazel had given her a hard lesson about the legend of the shadow thief before, and she was also afraid that Soram would suffer.
Seeing Loris's worried eyes, Soram shook her head and said it didn't matter. To others, shadow assassins may be difficult to deal with, but to Solam, these half-toned shadow creatures have nothing to fear, and he is not a purely physical profession.
But now is not the time for Soram to exert his power, isn't there still Trisim and Durham ahead!
Instead of patrolling around the yard like a normal guard, which would increase his chance of being exposed, he quietly hid in a shadow with a good view, quietly watching the yard.
After a while, there was a little movement in Trismu's perception. Trism immediately held his breath and quietly sensed where the movement was coming from. After a while, Trisim noticed an unusual shadow, which was actually moving.
It wasn't big, but Trism noticed it. As a half-elf who grew up in the Drow Elf society, he is well versed in all kinds of assassinations.
After determining that it was an Assassin, Trism immediately went into a stealth state.
The shadow assassin obviously underestimated Solam's protective power, so when he sneaked, he unexpectedly showed a little bit of his horse's feet.
He is not to blame for this, who told them to all approach Solam's courtyard, and there is no wind and grass yet. In his thoughts, it was obvious that the people inside were not at all prepared for their arrival, and it was normal for them to be lax.
But the moment he relaxed, Trism launched.
