Chapter 63: Shadow and Cold Light—Nataya
The sheep-headed demon patrol on the demon land was still patrolling back and forth as if it were a machine, but they did not notice that a strange shadow was slowly approaching the walls of the Kurast harbor with their shadows as a bridge.
Soon, in the corner of the shadow under the city wall, a black shadow rose from the ground, as if it had suddenly risen from a two-dimensional world to a three-dimensional world, changing from a plane to a three-dimensional human form.
With a slight movement of the figure, the shadow covering her body quickly retracted behind her, and a beautiful, short-haired female assassin in black appeared in the shadows at the corner of the city wall.
"Good... So that's just a matter of how to get in... It's a really uncomfortable place......"
The beauty in black muttered as she took out two gold-level steel claws from her inventory.
It's not her main weapon, but it's pretty good for wall climbing.
Since demons and the various monsters they summon have increased their eyesight at night, the best time to infiltrate the harbor of Kurast is during the day.
Built on the water, almost half of the city is built on the river, the walls of this city are made of bluestone on the shore, and the foundations are quite strong by the combination of druids and mages with spells and the roots of the trees.
Since Kurast is the only human city in the rainforest of the Eastern Continent, it is also the front line of monitoring the movements of Trivank and the monsters in the rainforest.
Similarly, since this is the first stop of the Pro's Trials (the Pro's who have Mephisto's Soul Stone will immediately go to the Demon Fortress to perform the second stage of the Trial in that special space), all of these peculiarities have made the port city constantly strengthened and eventually turned into a bay fortress.
Therefore, its walls are very high, even tens of meters higher than the huge sandstone walls of Rugoin.
Unfortunately, such a majestic wall could not stop Mephisto and the city's internal response in the end, and now it has become the biggest obstacle for humans to retake the city.
The black-clad woman climbed the walls with her steel claws, and although the bluestones of the walls had been treated to prevent climbing, that level of treatment could not stop a powerful legendary assassin.
Soon, her agile and athletic figure leaped to the top of the city wall and once again turned into an invisible shadow, clinging to the shadow of a group of sheep-headed demons patrolling the city wall.
Just when she thought she had successfully infiltrated the city, a black-red eyeball covered with bloodshot and disgusting meridians suddenly emerged from a huge pool of blood on the inside of the city wall.
The terrifying eyeball was about the size of a window, and it was covered with radial bloodshot from the pupil to the whites of the eyes around it.
There were many veins at the bottom of it that connected it to the pool of blood below, and the pool of blood was surrounded by dead corpses and horrible dried corpses drained of blood.
As soon as this eyeball emerged from the pool of blood, it suddenly turned in a direction and cast a deep and cold gaze directly onto the city wall.
Immediately after, a blood-colored light flashed on the iris of the eyeball, and a dark red ray suddenly erupted from the center of the pupil.
The beam shot at the group of sheep-headed demons patrolling the city walls, and swept directly past them without stopping.
More than a dozen sheep-headed demon clones were directly reduced to ashes in this blow, but the female assassin hiding in their shadows had to jump out of the shadows.
"Damn it!" She scolded viciously, and in a flash, her figure jumped directly out of the city wall.
"When this is a tavern? Come and go?! An earth-shattering roar rang out from within the city, followed by a bald man with knotted muscles and a war tattoo carved on his face leaping straight from under the city walls, brandishing two giant golden scythes in his hand and lunging at the female assassin as he burst into a warning howl.
"Drink, !!"
"Shut up the old lady!" The female assassin shouted, a silver flash in her hand, and a sharp knife shot straight into the barbarian's open mouth.
The barbarian had no choice but to keep his mouth shut, and at the same time swung the scythe in his right hand to smash the flying knife crooked.
Then, feeling insulted, the barbarian went berserk, staring at the female assassin in mid-air with wide eyes, and at the same time activated his jumping skill again, and the whole person pressed towards the assassin like a small mountain.
"Die!"
"Humph! Reckless! A trace of contempt flashed in the female assassin's eyes, the guy in front of her was only level 91, and he had not yet comprehended the original prototype, at most he could be regarded as a quasi-legendary powerhouse.
If she is right under normal circumstances, the proud female assassin is confident that she will be able to drain this guy's blood in a matter of minutes!
It's a pity that the current situation simply doesn't allow the female assassin to stop and fight alone, the city in front of her is full of evil pacters and demons, as long as this guy in front of her can delay her for a minute, a large number of legendary evil pact people can rush from the city to surround her!
Thinking of this, the female assassin snorted coldly, her feet joined together in mid-air, the silver light in her hand exploded, and a large sharp blade flew out from front of her, shooting directly at the barbarian's legs from the bottom up.
This is the Assassin's trap skill "Blade Fury", which originally had the effect of throwing two rotating blades to chop the opponent, but the female assassin just threw out more than two blades.
Seeing this, the barbarian was immediately shocked, and hurriedly turned his body away and frantically waved the giant scythe in his hand to block the incoming rain of blades, and could no longer care about the movements of the female assassin.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the female assassin hurriedly stretched her body and plunged straight into the shadows of the sheep-headed demons who had been ordered to surround under the city walls.
Just when she thought she was safe, the huge eyeball that had spotted her whereabouts rose from behind the city wall, floating higher than the walls of the Kurast harbor, shooting blood-red death light at her and the sheep-headed demon group around her.
"Hell!" The female assassin cursed, and had to jump out of the shadow again, and a storm flowed through her, and her speed suddenly increased several times, like a dark shadow towards the jungle.
"Where to run!" A hoarse cry rang out from the air, accompanied by a terrifying bone spear that bubbled with blood-red flames.
The bone spear tore through the air and reached the back of the female assassin almost instantly, but the female assassin did not dodge at all, and still ran towards the trees under the bombardment of blood-red rays.
The bone spear easily pierced the female assassin directly through the back and pinned it to the ground in front of her, but the necromancer with two blood-red skulls in the sky didn't show any joy.
"Shadow Master... Hum! ”
There was a cold, piercing snort from under the necromancer's dark gold mask, and as his voice came out, the "corpse of a female assassin" on the ground that had been pinned by a bone spear also turned into a black shadow and dissipated.
"Shadow Cold Light Nataya, it really lives up to its reputation!
But as long as there is the Eye of Sacrifice, no one will be able to slip under our noses into the city! Hum! ”
The necromancer glared coldly at some of the hapless barbarians on the city walls, turned around, and flew back into the harbor of Kurast.
After he left, under a large tree in the woods at the edge of the magical land, the female assassin Nataya, known as Shadow Cold, slowly emerged from the shadows.
She clutched her right shoulder with pain on her face, and a trace of purple-black blood that smelled foul slowly spilled from the place she was holding.
"This bastard old devil!" The corners of Nataya's eyes jumped, and she took out a vial of rejuvenation potion from her inventory and poured it down, ready to wait for the wound to heal.
However, to her surprise, this injury, which only took a few minutes to heal completely after drinking the medicine, had not shown the slightest sign of healing after more than ten minutes.
"What's going on?!" The female assassin looked at the purple-black wound on her shoulder with a look of horror, and a disgusting stench was coming from it.
"Hey... It seems that I have to go back, so what is the sacrificial eye, how come I have never seen it on the battlefield front of the Second World?
Such a malevolent force must be told to Mr. Omars......"
