The Unemployed Demon Lord

"This...I..." The assassin obviously began to hesitate, but there was no good fruit for him to expose Mr. Samuel.

"Say it, if you don't tell me, you will die here now." Merlin narrowed his eyes, the threat was very obvious.

Those ruby-like eyes are full of strange feelings, as if a high-ranking monarch despises grassroots.

It seems that there is no mercy, and they will kill at any time, which makes people feel fear like mountains and seas.

Alice stood by and didn't speak, because it was not the first time she saw Merlin's expressionless eyes.

The first time he met the Annihilating Hundred Thousand Crusade Army, Merlin had the same look in his eyes, he was so used to killing that he was almost numb to the point of numbness.

Alice always reminded herself not to be confused. Although Merlin's words and deeds were similar to humans, he was actually a demon.

The assassin's body was trembling, obviously swearing that he was afraid, swallowing his saliva frequently.

He thought to himself, if he didn't say anything, he would definitely die here on the spot.

But if he told Lord Samuel, he would not be able to survive.

But he could escape from London overnight, maybe he could save his own life.

The assassin made up his mind at an extreme time, and decided to pass the level before him first.

"I said! I said... yes..."

"Lord Samuel sent us here to assassinate you!"

(|?д?)

Chapter 35

Under great pressure, the surviving assassin spoke out Samuel's name.

Alice and Merlin obviously knew the name, and they were taken aback for a moment.

"Samuel..." Merlin frowned, feeling that things had become complicated.

"Isn't this the elf ambassador?" Alice muttered to herself, remembering that Shirley was sent to the elf embassy just today.

The two looked at each other, and they could clearly see each other's doubts.

"Are you serious?" Merlin looked down at the assassin and asked in a threatening tone, "If you lie, you will die."

"It's absolutely true!" The assassin was afraid that Merlin would not believe him, so he hurriedly said seriously, "We are the assassination team under Lord Samuel!"

"Huh?" Merlin frowned and continued to ask, "Why did you kill us? We have no enmity with Samuel."

"This..." the assassin said in a cold sweat, terrified, "I don't know about this either, our level has no right to know some big secrets, if I tell a lie, I will die!"

Merlin didn't speak, but he could understand this approach, which was normal.

It is impossible for the subordinates to know some secrets, and their work is simply carried out.

Merlin looked at Alice beside him, and asked softly.

"Alice, what do you think?"

"Why did Samuel target us?" Alice frowned, also puzzled by this matter, "We haven't done anything bad, let alone offended Samuel. Logically speaking, we took their princess It’s their benefactors who sent it back.”

"That's true, but Samuel seems to have killed us. It's unreasonable to even send an assassination team." Merlin rubbed his chin, feeling that things were not that simple.

"Is there some misunderstanding?" Alice tentatively speculated.

"What kind of misunderstanding can kill us? We don't seem to have done anything too extreme. If it's okay for me to complain about the bad food of the elves, it would be too humorous." Merlin spread his hands, thinking that the matter It's a bit baffling.

Alice fell into deep thought, thinking that it was abnormal for her group to be targeted by the elf ambassador. She always felt that there was some secret dangling in front of her eyes, but she couldn't grasp it.

"Is it because we sent Shirley back?" Merlin looked at Alice, wondering what she was thinking.

"Eh!?" Alice was stunned, thinking it was possible. She was assassinated at night just after sending Shirley back to the embassy, ​​and this group of people were still elves, so it was hard to believe that there was no connection.

"Or maybe Samuel... is a bad guy?" Merlin narrowed his eyes and boldly expressed his thoughts.

Alice's eyes widened immediately. Although Merlin was just guessing wildly, it's not impossible.

If it's what Merlin guessed, wouldn't Shirley be in danger?

Alice felt uneasy. She had always treated Shirley like a little sister, so she didn't want anything to happen to her.

"Merlin..."

"Huh?" Merlin looked at Alice in surprise.

"Let's put aside the matter of our going to the Strait of Dover for now, and go directly to the elves' embassy tomorrow and ask the matter clearly." Alice said seriously, if Samuel is a very dangerous task, then she Certainly not leaving Shirley alone.

Merlin raised his eyelids and thought about it. If Shirley had something to do, wouldn't his reward of 100 million gold coins be in vain?

So after weighing the pros and cons, Merlin nodded and responded seriously

"Okay, that's exactly what I mean."

"Go directly to the elves' embassy tomorrow!"

late at night.

Elven embassy.

The gorgeous promenade is dark, and the bright red ground is long and winding.

Countless unknown oil paintings hang on both sides, many of them are meritorious figures of the elves.

Shalan was leading the way with a candle in her hand, her expression under her black skin was unnatural.

Samuel followed closely behind in his nightgown, his face was a little ugly, as if he was suddenly awakened from his sleep.

The two hurried to the conference hall one after the other.

"What's the matter? You're in such a hurry, you came to call me just as soon as I lay down." Samuel's tone was a little angry, and he was obviously not very happy to be interrupted to rest.

"I'm very sorry, Mr. Samuel. Shapron said that he has something very important to ask for you. I hope you will go to the conference hall immediately." Sharan explained patiently, without any intention of stopping.

"Important matter?" Samuel frowned and asked suspiciously, "What is it?"

"I didn't come to ask before. Just now, Sha Pulun wanted to see you anxiously, so I hurried over." Shalan said apologetically.

"Really..." Samuel didn't continue to ask, thinking that Xia Pulun's request for a meeting late at night should be a very important matter, otherwise he wouldn't bother him so late.

The two turned several corners, walked back dozens of steps, and finally came to the embassy's conference hall.

Sharon quickly extinguished the candle in her hand, took a few steps quickly, and helped Samuel open the door of the conference hall.

"Master Samuel, please come in, Xia Pulun has been waiting for a long time."

Samuel nodded and entered the conference hall.

Shalan also looked around vigilantly at the back, and didn't find any other people waiting, so she closed the door of the conference hall with confidence.

The conference hall is very wide, but the light at this time is very dim, and only the faint candlelight can be used to see something clearly.

Xia Pulun was sitting on a chair drinking black tea, with a serious expression on his face, as if he had a lot of thoughts on his mind.

Seeing Samuel coming, Xia Pulun's pointed ears moved, and he quickly stood up and bowed slightly.

"Lord Samuel..."

Samuel walked up to Shaplun, looked at his anxious expression, and asked seriously, "So anxious to see me, what happened?"

"This..." Xia Pulun looked to the side, and it turned out that there was another hot spot! ?

Wearing a black robe all over, with several wounds on his body, his expression was extremely frightened, who else would it be if it wasn't the surviving assassin! ?

After learning the reason of the matter, Merlin and Alice really let the assassin go, instead of taking his life.

This made the assassin overjoyed, and he was so happy that he started his escape.

But this assassin was a little unlucky. Just after he escaped from London, he bumped into Shaplun who was inspecting the big magic circle of "Elf Lamentation".

The two stared at each other, everything was not serious, and the poor surviving assassin was captured by Shaplun.

The surviving assassin was tied up and knelt on the ground trembling, feeling that he was doomed this time. Lord Samuel has always been ruthless, and he will definitely not let him go!

"Lord Samuel, all the assassination teams we sent were killed, and only this guy survived." Shapron said succinctly.

Samuel instantly understood the situation, his eyes widened, his face full of disbelief, and he muttered to himself

"what……?"

"The assassination team we sent was wiped out!?"

Chapter 36: Monthly Ticket Addition

Shapron's simple narration shocked Samuel a lot and made her a little unbelievable.

"real or fake?"

"It is true that the whole army was wiped out." Shaplun nodded, looking a little depressed.

Samuel looked at the surviving assassin who was kneeling on the ground, and seeing the distressed appearance, he was half convinced.

It seems that the elite assassination team he carefully organized is really dead, and only one waste survives!

But Samuel was a little confused, and the two adventurers were not strong at all, that is, the high-level magic swordsman and a dispensable villager A.

All of his black elf subordinates are high-level, and it must be a breeze to strangle these two Muggles.

But in the end, Samuel was very surprised. He couldn't figure out how his subordinates sacrificed.

"How is it possible? Those two guys are very weak, and the strongest is only a high-level magic swordsman. Our assassins are all high-level strengths. Is it difficult to kill a magic swordsman together?" Sharan couldn't help So, he asked Shaplun directly, and felt that what he said was false.

"It's absolutely true. This guy said it himself. There can be no falsehood. When I found him, he was about to escape from London and didn't want to take responsibility for the failure of the mission." Shaplun looked at the assassin kneeling on the ground, his tone Meaningful.

The surviving assassins must have been named by themselves, and they seemed almost out of courage.

His cold sweat was like a flood that opened the gate, and it came down with a splash, and he kowtowed frequently

"Wait...spare me! Lord Samuel! Please don't throw me to feed the ghouls!"
