On the Seven Towers

The assassin of light, Kyros, died in a deal, a deal between the Tower of China and the Lord of Bailang City.

Three years ago, the all-out war between the continental countries ended with the Kingdom losing more than half of its land and the Empire losing one-third of its land. The Tower of China naturally gained the most benefits. Now the territory of the Tower of China is no less than that of the Empire and the Kingdom, and has become a real country. Originally, the Tower of China had the spare capacity to continue to expand, but they faced pressure from two sides, and finally took the initiative to end the war. One was the pressure from all directions from the God-coming faction of the Temple of Nature, but Xiao Chen and his men did not want to fight with the Temple of Nature just after a big battle. Later, through the mediation of the present-world priests such as Roland, this contradiction was not expanded. Second, the cadre team of the Tower of China was limited, and it would take a lot of time to digest the seized land.

But shortly after the end of this war, the orc tribes in the north and the city-states in the south also became chaotic. The tiger tribe and the wolf tribe among the orcs fought for the king's court. The war eventually affected more than a dozen tribes, and two-thirds of the orc tribes were involved in the dispute. In the end, the wolf tribe defeated the tiger tribe and won, but the orc tribes were also seriously injured. Therefore, although at the same time, Emperor Alfred of the Empire died in battle, his young son succeeded to the throne, the two dukes rebelled, and the empire began to be in civil strife, but the orcs did not have the spare energy to take the opportunity to invade the south.

On the other hand, not long after the war in the central part of the continent calmed down, ambitious people in the southern city-states emerged, using excuses to create disputes and wanted to take the opportunity to expand their power.

More than a year ago, Avram, the lord of Reef City, rebuked Mendina, the lord of Coconut City, for colluding with the sea tribe to attack their caravan, and then launched a war against Coconut City. The war did not last for a few months and ended with the complete defeat of Coconut City. Reef City brought Coconut City into its rule. Next, Avram pointed his spearhead at Sunset City, and even the reason for sending troops was exactly the same. Similarly, Sunset City did not last long before being conquered. The addition of two city-states at once made the power of Reef City suddenly expand. If other city lords did the same, they would have been jointly attacked by other cities. However, Reef City was different. Avram was the only saint in the southern city-state, the youngest son of Kyros.

The city-state alliance did not fail to raise its own protests. But all the protests were blocked by Kyros.

He said to the envoy of the alliance: "Anyone who bullies my son must pay the price. If anyone hinders this, it is against me personally. And all those who are against me will die. If you think there is anyone more powerful than the Saint of Time Sosa, then come and try my light of death."

Kyros's accumulated prestige in the southern city-state made everyone dare not speak of resistance lightly. In addition, the people's hearts were originally not in harmony among the city-states, and they had their own ulterior motives, so the two wars ended in vain.

After Avram's Reef City attacked twice, it was quiet for a while. There was no action for nearly a year. But in half a month, he repeated the same trick and accused White Wave City of attacking their caravan in the open sea, causing a ship to sink.

Peles, the lord of White Wave City, knew that this was all a frame-up. The ship was obviously sunk by a storm, and his fleet rescued two sailors from Reef City, but his argument seemed pale and powerless in front of a saint.

Peles also tried to form an alliance to fight against Reef City, but the lords who were originally interested in this retreated after being warned by Kyros. He had no choice but to recruit mercenaries and prepare for war. But he knew very well that no matter how he prepared, he would not be able to escape the fate of failure under the huge military advantage and master advantage of Reef City.

However, just when he was about to lose confidence, several messengers from the Tower of China secretly found him.

They gave him a choice to cooperate with them to assassinate Kyros. Peleis didn't quite know the reason why the Tower of China and Kyros were hostile. In his opinion, the reason why the Chinese wanted to oppose Kyros was that they didn't want to see a powerful country rise in the south. However, this reason was enough for him to convince himself. The heads of the mayors of Coconut City and Sunset City were hung on the gate of Reef City before, and he didn't want to become the next one.

So, he invited Kyros according to the Chinese's request. In the invitation, he said that he hoped to secretly surrender to Kyros and exchange his safety for an ancestral secret treasure. It was a holy dagger called "Broken Heart". It was an indestructible blade. If used by Kyros, who was good at daggers, it would definitely be able to exert great power. But the only condition was that he needed to talk to Kyros and only pledge allegiance to Kyros, not to Reef City.

After receiving this invitation, Kyros had no doubts, because no one in the southern city-state had ever dared to attack him. And he himself was best at sneaking in and escaping. It was almost impossible for Peleis to plot against him. As for Pele's thoughts, it is easy to understand. He wants to share some power and become his sword like his son Avram, so as to maintain his position. Kyros thinks that as long as he pays enough, it is not a bad idea. Although Avram is his son, adding a competitor to him will make him easier to discipline, right?

What's more, he was very tempted by the holy dagger. Kyros' realm was not very high among the saints, and his talent was relatively average. He just had the characteristics of skills and profession, which allowed him to threaten other saints. Therefore, after he reached his current realm, it was already very difficult to improve his strength. And a more handy weapon became very important.

In the last battle to assassinate Sasso, his usual dagger "Death Ray" suffered some irreparable damage in the explosion caused by Sasso, which slightly reduced his strength. If someone could give him a holy dagger, it would just make up for the loss.

So after weighing it, Kyros decided to go to the appointment. For the sake of caution, he also brought a great magician and two great swordsmen with him. In his opinion, this was already fully prepared.

The meeting was naturally held in secret, and the location was set in a wealthy businessman's house in Baisha City. This is actually Pele's own property. Before coming here, Pelesch deliberately detected the surrounding situation and found that there was no ambush within at least one kilometer radius. Then he entered the house through the side door as agreed.
