Urban Dreams Come True System

Chapter 516, Assassination
In fact, when Qiao Heng reacted to the wolves, Master Xizi had already become curious about Qiao Heng. Coupled with Qiao Heng's performance this time, he was already secretly approving of Qiao Heng. Naturally, he wanted to win Qiao Heng to join them. This time I took this opportunity to make a decision.

Then Master Xizi asked Qiao Heng if he would like to take up this position. After learning about this position, he could continue to stay in Heping Town, and he would have a good salary, which could be regarded as a place to settle down. Qiao Heng was naturally very happy I agreed, and as for this master Xizi who is cruel and merciless, as long as he helps himself instead of hurting himself, he can give himself even more help.

After counting the number of people and packing up the items, the convoy set off again.

Mrs. Xizi still pretends to be a coachman, and the fake princess still sits in her special carriage. Only Qiao Heng no longer needs to be a guide for the convoy, and is in charge of commanding the team's actions. Qiao Heng worked hard, but ended up feeling relaxed.

After Qiao Heng inquired, he found out that Lord Xizi was already a master-level expert. He was a high-ranking expert in the Roland Kingdom, and everyone respected him. Qiao Heng was even more surprised this time.

He already understood that in this world, the levels of practitioners can be divided into apprentices, trainees, elementary, intermediate, advanced, master, master, suzerain, saint, god, main god, supreme god, each level is divided into Ten small levels.

It is said that those who have reached the level of saints are already at the level of legends. It is difficult to find a person in the entire continent, and they will not serve any kingdom. As for the master of the suzerain level, it is difficult for a kingdom to have one. If there is, his right And the status is even higher than the king, and the master level is already a top existence, and a powerful kingdom can only find a few.

That's why reaching the master level is so respected by everyone.

This also surprised Qiao Heng. Who did he want to catch and why he sent such a master?

For the next two days, the weather was calm and nothing dangerous happened. The escorted carriage team also went to the official road. There would be no strange beasts here, so everyone breathed a sigh of relief and began to relax their vigilance.

Ahead is a small border town of the Roland Empire, Youlan Town. It is mainly a military town, circular in shape, with not many permanent residents, mainly soldiers and their families, and some businessmen doing small business. The city wall was built tall and strong, like an iron barrel.

This time, as long as the purchased alien fur is sent to Youlan Town, the mission is considered complete. As for the secret mission, only Master Xizi and the Commander Feng know about it. Of course, Qiao Heng also guessed some of it more or less. The trip was in vain.

Just when everyone thought nothing would happen later, a thin little girl of fourteen or fifteen years old suddenly ran out from the jungle beside the road. The little girl turned around as if she had found a savior when she saw the escort team. They rushed towards Qiao Heng and the others, and the escorting soldiers hurriedly drew out their weapons and stood on guard carefully.

At this time, I heard the little girl yelling while running, "Help me, save me, there are strange beasts chasing me, save me."

There was a black birthmark on the little girl's face, her appearance was really unflattering, and the plain gray-white clothes on her body were cut several times, she looked like a refugee fleeing from a disaster.

Sure enough, a maned leopard with yellow eyes rushed out of the jungle and rushed towards the little girl. Everyone in the team raised their hearts. Several people looked at Qiao Heng, waiting for him to make a decision.

At this critical moment, Qiao Heng hurriedly shouted: "Shoot the arrow, save people."

A shower of arrows hit the maned leopard. Although most of the arrows were easily dodged by the leopard, there were still several arrows that scratched shallow scars on the leopard's back. The leopard seemed to be frightened. After catching it, he hurriedly turned around, jumped into the jungle again in a few leaps and bounds, and ran away.

Just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief watching the leopard escape into the jungle, the little girl who ran out ran to the front of the carriage in which the fake princess was riding.

It seemed that the little girl had exhausted all her strength. Before she ran to the false princess's carriage, she fell to the ground and struggled for a long time without getting up. She just cried out, "Help me."

Qiao Heng, who was closest to the fake princess, jumped off the horse immediately. Just as he was about to help the little girl up on the ground, he suddenly saw the boots on the little girl's feet, and he suddenly became suspicious.

Although her leather boots are old, they are made of the hide of the mutated wild boar king. The texture of this kind of animal leather is like the yellow color of old iron. It is comfortable to wear, and the durability is also very good. Qiao Heng was very impressed because he saw it when he was doing the mission, and this time the items purchased this time have this kind of fur, so naturally he can't misread it.

What makes Qiao Heng even more strange is that the leather boot on the right side of the little girl is slightly bulging. Upon closer inspection, there is actually a short dagger hidden. Her right hand seems to be placed nearby inadvertently. The dagger can be pulled out.

Qiao Heng's heart was shocked. Could it be that this little girl wanted to assassinate the princess in the carriage.

What grudge does she have with the royal family of the Kingdom of Roland?
It is a heinous crime for an ordinary person to assassinate the royal family. If caught, he will be beaten to death. Unless there is an unforgettable hatred, no one would take such a big risk.

Unless there is one reason, that is.

Qiao Heng knew to some extent that on this continent, due to wars between kingdoms, some weak kingdoms had been annexed by powerful kingdoms. Others could be spared the annihilated kingdoms, but those from the royal family, The families of loyal ministers are all the objects of liquidation by the victorious country after the war.

This little girl is probably a loyal family member of a small kingdom that was destroyed by the Roland Kingdom. Now she has no choice but to embark on the road of exile, but the country's enemies hate her and cannot forget her, so Qiao Heng thought.

She wanted to assassinate the princess of the Kingdom of Roland, possibly to avenge her motherland and her family, so everything made sense.

Qiao Heng just came to this world, and he has been like a passer-by until now. He has no concept of the kingdom here, let alone the concept of home.

He just knew that although the little girl in front of him was not good-looking, her determined eyes and bright eyes suggested that she was not a heinous person. Qiao Heng had the idea of ​​​​helping her.
