Chapter 588: A Regretful Confrontation
From the city-state of Ugash, the outstanding assassination team belonging to the royal guards gathered a total of fifty-four people, armed with soft silk iron armor and enchanted boots from the supplies sent by the Demon Dragon Nation, with three spells: Wind Blast, Shadow Walk, and Shadowless, which can shuttle through the shadows invisible to ordinary people with fast and flexible skills after activation.
Now, the hunters, who are several times larger than their prey, each armed with a silver dagger, are specialized in breaking through the magic shield, which will be a deadly weapon for the caster.
Some of the Monsutter assassins were slightly behind their comrades, their right arms bound to their crossbows, aimed at their prey, and their poisoned crossbow arrows fired at any moment.
The two Assassins wield a long-handled scythe, a weapon that can ignore physical defenses and inflict unimaginable damage on enemies from piercing through the energy realm, with enough Shadow Energy to wash away all kinds of positive spells attached to the caster in an instant.
The equipment from the abyss is amazingly seductive, and after being armed, the Monsutter assassins immediately feel the difference that goes deep into the bone marrow, which is an incomparably terrifying, but amazingly attractive product.
After equipping these Abyssal Specialties, each Assassin claimed to be able to exert 150% of their normal combat effectiveness.
……
Walking in the shadows, the tentacles of darkness weaved an invisible web, silently lurking and moving, and inadvertently, the snare was already less than ten steps away from the personnel of the Intelligence Group.
The leader of the assassins suppressed the excitement in his heart, as if a fisherman had caught a big fish, and he was careful to guard it, for fear that the big fish would escape.
With less than three steps left, the Jain, who was walking on the outermost side, was already about to touch the short knife placed in his hand, and the assassin holding the short knife had his legs tense, like a palm that might jump high at any moment, and the horizontal grip of the handle aimed the blade sideways at the Jain's neck, waiting for an opportunity to cut his throat.
The silent whistle, the secret signal from within the assassination team, and at the notification of the leader, a lifeless assassination began.
The one-handed bladed assassin bounced his legs and faced the Jain, taller than himself, the enchanted dagger enough to make it die a painless death in an instant.
That violet head, I'm going to decide!
The Jains seemed to be indifferent to the attack in the shadows, but I don't know if it was a coincidence, the moment he was about to be swept in the neck by a short knife, the prey turned sideways, and the assassin's attack trajectory completely deviated, and all the targets swept along the way failed.
After a brief moment of consternation, the Jain who passed by suddenly turned around again, facing the original direction, this time the scenery was slightly different, under the pair of indifferent and ruthless dark purple pupils, the figure of the assassin holding a short knife was completely exposed.
With both hands outstretched, the strong Jaina grabbed the poor assassin, and the surging power of the opponent continued to surge from both hands and wrists, and there was almost no resistance to the assassin, and the assassin was torn apart.
The instantaneous change caused the collapse of the whole line.
Two scythe-wielding assassins set out to encircle and suppress what appeared to be the strongest Jain informant, but unfortunately, their chosen target happened to be the leader of the entire intelligence team.
The cold and ruthless dark golden pupils contained only a few struggling prey, no weapons needed, just bare hands to defend against the enemy.
Under the exquisite skill of the instant explosion, the scythe in the hand of an assassin was held by the two fingers of the team leader, and with a pinch, a huge force shook the assassin out, and before he could stand firm in the process of flying upside down, the sickle had already flew, and the head of the original owner was cut off in the spinning flight, and it was brought back to the new master like a boomerang.
Before the other assassin could understand what was going on, a deadly assault from the team leader came like a mad shower.
In addition to this fight, the opponent was suppressed, and in this situation, the team leader sent a signal for all members to attack.
[Telekinesis, release the signal of the general attack!] 】
Each intelligence group has a special member, the telekinesis, who has very strong spiritual power and can release phantom and soul spells, but in the group operation general attack, the main value of this group is to act as the brain of the team leader, and perfectly connect the members to form a complete group.
Every member of the group, including the group leader, is half-buried in their brains, and there are turbine-shaped, headphone-like gadgets hanging from their ears, which exist as stabilizers and amplifiers of mental signals.
After receiving the order from the team leader for the first time, without thinking, the telekinesis immediately transmitted this order to the brains of each team member, which is equivalent to the voice of the team leader sounding in the brains of each team member.
Soon, all the melee members formed a semi-circle formation, and the archers each fired three arrows in a row: Flame, Ice, and Wind, requiring the same time and speed level, and in just a split second, the ambush net from the assassin was immediately torn open a huge gap.
Through the gaps, Surduwa's informants were not afraid of being trapped in place by the seemingly inexplicable Night's Technology.
In the next round, the telekinesis took the lead in attacking.
Spiritual quagmire!
The tentacles that spread out like an octopus instantly caught the assassins around them, and in that brief moment, each assassin seemed to feel that their thinking was much duller, and even their movements were much slower.
At this moment, the expeditionary sniper folded his bow and arrow in half, flipped his hand under his wrist, and with a flick of his hand, something was thrown out.
The new weapon he took out was a short gun with two barrels.
The unpleasant smell of gunpowder burns instantly, and after the majestic heat energy is ignited, the projectile is struck out through a precise mechanical design, although it is a gun wheel design, but under the rotating shaft dozens of times, the projectile blessed by the spiral force can even penetrate the 3 cm steel plate.
Caught off guard, several assassins were crushed in the head, as if they were watermelons, and cracked open in an instant.
The strange and deadly weapon instantly shocked all the Monsutter assassins on the field, but in the first moment, the assassin leader reacted first, drew his dagger and dived into the shadows in an instant.
After taking eight steps in a row, [Shadow Step] was not afraid of being discovered at all, but this time, the previous attack allowed the telekinesis to mark the leader's position first, and now, no matter where the leader appeared, he was under surveillance.
It was the head of the intelligence group who struck the shot, and it was also holding a dagger in its hand, but the blade was curving inwards with shocking jagged teeth.
Soon, the leader of the assassins understood the purpose of the serrations on the dagger.
