Reborn Dragon Vein Warlock, Genius Beauty Mage

Chapter 199 The Real Assassin (1)

In the town of Brieux, the basement of an ordinary house.

Light flashed on the magic circle, and a naked woman appeared here. She was the assassin who assassinated Christine.

As an assassin, it is inevitable to prepare an escape route in advance. A receiving array was arranged on the ground. The moment she was hit by the "Fireball Technique", she activated the teleportation rune and escaped here. His clothes must have been blown away, and his body suffered some minor burn injuries, but at least his life was saved.

When the assassin walked out of the magic circle, his skin rippled, and he instantly transformed into the appearance of a village woman, and his injuries healed. Then she picked up the clothes that had been prepared and put them on. When she came out of the house, she was just like an ordinary villager.

Her name is Carlottani Darkholm, she is a changeling, a sixteenth-level assassin and a fifth-level mage. He is usually active in other dimensions in the outer realm and is a well-known figure in the industry. She was the real assassin hired by the devil to kill Earl Stewart.

(Setting of this book) Changelings are the descendants of shapeshifters and other humanoid creatures. The difference between the two is:

There is no gender distinction between shapeshifters. They have a slender figure, slender limbs, pale flesh and less hair. The face looks like an unfinished product, with large, protruding eyes that are yellow and have vertical pupils. Changelings are gendered and will have the characteristics of the other half of their parents, but they are definitely much prettier than shapeshifters, but appearance is the least important thing to them.

Both can transform into any humanoid creature between one and three meters tall and weighing no more than three hundred kilograms. This kind of transformation is a natural ability with no limit on the number of times. It will not be invalidated by spells and divine spells such as "dispel magic". It can also be used in places such as "forbidden magic areas" and will not be detected by gods below level three. It can be seen through spells, spells, and racial talents.

After the change, it is exactly the same as the original version, but it does not have the talents and abilities of the original version. For example, you can transform into a demon, but you don't have their fire resistance, etc.

After the shape-shifting monster changes form, it will have clothes and jewelry that are exactly the same as the original ones, but this is limited to the visual and tactile effects of ordinary clothes, and the actual effect is impossible. Special clothing can only imitate the appearance, not even the touch.

For example, if you haven't touched some artifact armor, how do you know what it feels like? If a shapeshifter could imitate it at a glance, wouldn't it be better than a real god?

Changelings can only change forms but cannot change clothes, which is a bit lacking.

Both have the racial talent "Detect Thoughts", which has the same effect as a spell of the same level. They can read the target's current thoughts, but they cannot read the target's unrecollected memories.

For example, you can read goals: where you want to go to eat now, what kind of meal you want to eat, and other ideas. But it cannot be read if the target is not thinking about what they ate last night.

Whether they are shapeshifters or changeling monsters, their innate combat power is no less than that of a third-level warrior. At the same time, they can also become physics professionals to obtain corresponding combat skills and expertise. Most of them must choose the assassin profession. However, there are very few legal professions among them, and it is absolutely impossible for priests to do so.

With her racial talent and long-term experience in changing roles, Carlottani easily became a maid in Brieux Manor and assassinated Earl Stewart.

As for why she didn't kill the maid, it was because killing too many people would be reflected in the camp appraisal.

The innate alignment of shapeshifters and changelings is order-neutral, and they will temporarily change their alignment according to their changed appearance. This can be hidden from detection spells. But in history, there are also unlucky people who kill too many people and cannot be washed away. No matter what form they take, they will always be famous. For an assassin, this life will be useless.

The town was under martial law, and the knights and soldiers were conducting house-to-house searches. But at this time, Carlottani had changed her appearance and moved to another place. The searching soldiers would definitely be able to find the magic circle, but it would be impossible to find her after that.

Carlotani came from the space rift in Sardinia, which was the only place where professionals of level nine or above could pass. The journey through Guoyue City was not a problem at all for her.

Carlottani arrived a few days after Gladys and others arrived in Rennes, Brittany County, and then secretly watched them. After Gladys brought the six demons over, Carlottani followed the six people to see if they could find an opportunity to assassinate them. Unexpectedly, this group of unlucky children encountered an elf master in the first battle and gave them all away.

Carlottani saw that Count Stewart had captured a prisoner, and guessed that the other party might follow the clues to deal with the three demons next, so she returned to the town of Brieux and transformed into a maid. Unexpectedly, she was actually caught and assassinated. Opportunity.

The "Human Skin Staff" was taken away by her. After all, it was an artifact. Even though she didn't use it, it was still worth a lot of money. There was no need to keep it and give it away to humans.

For this assassination she prepared two pieces of legendary equipment:

One is the "Time and Space Interference" magic bead. The holder only needs a thought to switch it on and off. After turning it on, an interference area with a diameter of fifty meters will be formed with the magic bead as the center. It will last for one hour and cool down for seven days. In any space within this area, Spells, items, and magic circles cannot be used.

One is the "Silver-Inlaid Dagger", which has the ability to pierce any protective spell below legendary level. As a legendary weapon, it is also sharp enough. It is not surprising that it can cut through the hidden sword made by Christine.

She knew that the other party had the talent "Dragon Scale Armor" as a Dragon Vein Warlock, but that was ultimately a force field protection spell that could be pierced by a "silver-encrusted dagger".

She had also heard that Count Stuart had an armor that did not affect spellcasting, which was the same as the "Arcane Knights" of the main world's mage guild. But since she could choose this "silver-inlaid dagger", it meant that she could pierce this kind of armor. armor.

Under normal circumstances, with these two pieces of equipment in hand, Carlottani has already reached within seven steps of the mage, and the assassination can be said to be a sure shot. Unexpectedly, Count Stewart reacted so quickly, not like a noble mage at all, but like a high-level assassin. What made her even more unexpected was that the dagger in her hand clearly hit the target but could not penetrate the opponent's defense.

When the assassination failed, Carlotani made a prompt decision and chose to escape. Otherwise, she might not be able to escape if she was entangled by the master-level elf warrior. This didn't surprise her, it was common for assassins to go wrong. Besides, the devil paid a lot of money to invite him to take action. If Earl Stewart was so easy to kill the devil, he would have done it himself.
