The Death Plan of a Hero of the Empire

"What do you mean?" Lu Nier and Li Jie realized the danger, and distanced themselves from the clown.

"It means you are going to die."

The clown threw the throwing knife again.

This time, Lu Nier noticed that the shape of the two throwing knives was very similar to that of a boomerang, so he was prepared.

"Be careful, his throwing knife will turn back." Lu Nier reminded aloud.

"I see."

Li Jie responded, prepared in advance, and dodged the throwing knife that was shot at her.

"Very good." Seeing that his throwing knife was dodged, the clown laughed strangely, and two new throwing knives appeared between his fingers, "Happy upgrade!"

Keeping the distance apart makes it easier for the clown to dodge the throwing knives and predict the trajectory in advance, but he can't get close to the clown, so he can't hurt him, and it's easy to be hit by the throwing knives if he gets close to him.

This is a tough opponent.

The clown began to throw throwing knives continuously, and Lu Nier and Li Jie could only retreat and dodge while being completely suppressed.

"Well……"

Li Jie was scratched by a flying knife on her shoulder.

Lu Nier began to notice that Li Jie's dodging movements became a little sluggish, and she obviously began to pant, obviously exhausted.

"You go first." Lu Nier said to Li Jie, "I'll hold him back, you will run from the other side later, and run directly back to the investigation bureau to ask for support."

"No, I'll hold him back, you go first." Li Jie flatly refused.

"Stop arguing at a time like this. If I hold him back, he can still live, but if you hold him back, he will surely die." The situation was critical, and Lu Nier couldn't care less about being tactful.

"You may not be able to survive!" Li Jie suddenly raised her voice, "However, as long as one person holds back, the other person has a great hope of escape. I don't have much energy now, even if I run away You will be caught up soon, so sacrificing me and your escape is the best choice!"

"It is precisely because you have no physical strength that you should run away all the more. Do you want me to sacrifice my companions to live?"

"Then should I sacrifice you to live?!"

"Let's stop arguing, hurry up..."

Seeing this scene, the clown in the distance twisted his expression, and even the paint on his face, which was painted with smiling makeup, seemed to have turned into a crying face at this moment.

"Enough for the two of you!"

The clown shouted angrily, and directly held three throwing knives in each of his left and right hands.

"I hate people like you the most! Die here!"

It seems to be out of hatred, the speed of these six flying knives is even faster than before!

Li Jie wanted to dodge like before, but she was exhausted and the speed of the throwing knives became faster, so she couldn't dodge the three flying knives flying towards her.

Li Jie closed her eyes subconsciously, because one of the handles was aimed at her eyes.

"It's over..."

Her body was stiff, and her heart seemed to be tightly held by one hand. The fear of dying made Li Jie hold her breath involuntarily, as if time had stopped.

However, she felt no pain.

Opening her eyes in a daze, Li Jie saw Lu Nier standing in front of him.

Among the three throwing knives aimed at her eyes, the one aimed at her eyes has been stuck in Runier's right palm at this moment, and the one aimed at her throat pierced through Runier's right shoulder. The one aimed at her chest seemed to have penetrated into Lunier's rib.

This person, using flesh and blood as a shield, chose to stand in front of her without hesitation.

"Lunier!"

"cough……"

Lu Nier spat out a mouthful of blood, and the throwing knife stuck in his ribs seemed to have injured his internal organs.

"There's no need to argue now..." Lu Nier hurriedly said, "I'm sure I won't be able to run away like this, why don't you run away quickly..."

"Do not……"

Li Jie reached into her pocket and took out a ruby, which was Shanila's.

Then she dropped the ruby ​​into her mouth and swallowed.

"It was so touching, I almost cried!"

The clown in the distance watched this scene jokingly, and once again filled his hands with six throwing knives, aiming at two people.

"Give me death!"

Lu Nier puffed out his chest again, and stood in front of Li Jie.

The clown seemed to be intentionally torturing, and missed Lu Nier's vitals. Instead, six throwing knives pierced Lu Nier's left and right hands, feet, and thighs.

"so fun!"

The clown laughed strangely, and took out six more throwing knives out of nowhere.

He threw the throwing knife again, but this time his throwing knife flew halfway, and suddenly twisted, before flying a few steps, it turned in mid-air, and finally fell powerlessly to the ground.

"Huh?!" The clown looked at this scene in surprise, "What's going on?!"

"Lunil..."

Muttering this name, Li Jie held Lu Nier in her arms from behind.

"Lize?"

Because of Lunier's [Pain Paralysis], he can still keep his consciousness clear, but he found that Li Jie is in a strange state now.

"Just now..."

The clown touched six throwing knives again and threw them at Lu Nier and Li Jie.

However, this time the six throwing knives flew over smoothly, but none of them hit Lu Nier and Li Jie. They brushed towards them, circled around, suddenly accelerated, and shot at the clown. went back.

"This……"

The clown reached out to catch it, but found that the trajectory and speed of the flying knife were completely out of control. Several fingers of both hands were directly cut off by the flying knife, and the rest of them pierced his chest one after another.

"what!"

The clown screamed, looking at his severed finger in disbelief.

"what have you done?!"

[The opening conditions of the profession [Windbringer] have been met, do you want to open the Windbringer career template? 】

[Open the professional template]

[Obtain the professional-specific trait · Master of Wind]

[Gain special trait Wind Fury]

[Trait "Airflow Manipulation" has been strengthened]

[Skill "Airflow Manipulation" reaches LV3, gets skill rewards, and acquires the trait Sharpened Wind Blade]

……

Awaken naturally.

Li Jie realized the power of a professional she had obtained in an instant, and her mastery of airflow manipulation directly rose to a higher level.

Moreover, her special characteristic [Wind Fury] has the effect that the more agitated she is, the stronger the power of wind magic she can exert.

Now her [Airflow Manipulation], the so-called wind magic, is stronger than before.

She can even use the trait of [Wind Controller] to feel the trajectory of those flying knives moving in the airflow, manipulate the airflow to change their moving direction, and accelerate them when they are spinning, so that they can hurt the clown.

The lack of physical strength and exhausted spirit seems to have returned to the full state now.

It's all an effect of that gem.

To the severed-fingered clown who had lost his combat effectiveness, Li Jie swung a wind blade directly.

The invisible air blade swung across the air and directly passed over the clown's neck. The next moment, the clown's neck burst into blood, and he fell to the ground, twitching a few times.

[Sharpening Wind Blade] can allow her to increase its penetration when turning the wind into a blade form to attack the enemy.

The clown wasn't that weak in the first place, but his attack method was almost restrained by Li Jie now, so he was dealt with without any power to fight back.

After killing the clown, Li Jie quickly supported Lu Nier's body from behind. Looking at the flying knife pierced into his body, her heart was beating rapidly, and she felt a little hard to breathe.

"Lu Nier, can you still go?" Li Jie quickly forced herself to regain her composure.

"It's okay..." Lu Nier was a little numb to the sudden change in the scene.

These throwing knives didn't hurt his joints or affect his mobility, and his sense of pain was paralyzed by the trait, so Lunier still had no problem walking around.

"Okay, give me your hand, let's go to the clinic now."

"..."

In this way, Lu Nier was supported by Lize and walked towards the nearest clinic.

However, they didn't take a few steps, and another strange person appeared in front of them.

"what?"

He was a man in his mid-thirties, holding a rolled-up whip like a beast tamer, but wearing a tuxedo and top hat, as if he was going to a formal occasion.

"Excuse me, do you two know where the bald head is?"

Hearing this man's question, Lu Nier couldn't help but think of what the clown said before.

"Are you with him?" Lu Nier pointed to the clown corpse on the ground and asked.

"A group? Who are you?" The whip man was a little surprised, "Aren't you contenders?"

"A contender again..."

Lunier memorized this word, and at the same time noticed the malice in the man's eyes.

"Lize, be careful with him." Lu Nier reminded in a low voice, "He may attack us just like the clown just now."

"Ah."

Li Jie responded.

Instead of fighting, she just wants to send Lu Nier to the clinic now.

"The bald head is over there, it has nothing to do with us."

Li Jie pointed behind her, and then supported Lu Nier to continue walking.

The leather whip man showed a thoughtful expression, then stepped aside and got out of the way.

When Li Jie and Lu Nier passed by him, he suddenly shook the whip in his hand, and whipped towards Lu Nier and Li Jie.

Li Jie had been prepared for a long time. As soon as the whip was shaken, she directly used wind magic to condense a wind blade and slashed over.

The leather whip touched the wind blade in mid-air, and was directly bounced off by the wind blade.

Even if an ordinary leather whip is not cut off directly, it will still be cut off with a big gap if it is cut off by Li Jie's current wind blade.

But this whip man's whip only opened a small crack, which shows that the toughness of this whip is absolutely extraordinary.

The wind blade flicked off the whip, although its power was greatly reduced, but it still slashed at the whip man, cutting off a section of his top hat.

The whip man's expression suddenly became very serious, holding the whip in his hand, hesitating whether to continue attacking.

For the leather whip man, anyone he sees now is an enemy to him.

The reason for the attack was that the two of them seemed to be in a bad state, so they planned to deal with them casually.

But now it seems that these two people are not easy to deal with.

"This is a misunderstanding……"

The leather whip man stepped back and spoke.

Li Jie glanced at him coldly, then helped Lu Nier to continue walking around the clinic.

However, she soon discovered that the situation had changed again. The bald man who should have been unconscious, that is, Lake, unexpectedly woke up at this time, and ran towards them with a face full of horror.

"Help me! Help me!" Seeing Li Jie, Lake begged loudly as if seeing a life-saving straw, "Aren't you an investigator?!"

"They're going to kill me!"

"them?"
