Assassination career from full level

"...It's your nephew who did it." Xiao Yao strode forward, and there was a light source in the darkness in front of him. Light.

"Who are you talking to all of a sudden, don't keep scaring me." Jian Yao complained casually while chasing after Xiao Yao.

Xiao Yao didn't take up the words of the Sword Demon, and said seriously: "Sword Demon, the three humans who went in first activated the defense device of Flanders, the road should be impassable, and when we go out from the exit Just jump off."

"Jump off? From where?"

"You will know after you go out, and, when you remember to jump, you will also pull those three humans together."

"...Do you think I'm an acrobat?"

Xiaoyao laughed, as if she had acquiesced in the idea of ​​the sword demon, turned around and stretched out her hand to the sword demon, the sword demon was stunned for a moment, seeing the dull expression of the sword demon, Xiaoyao smiled even more happily: "As this time How about I let you hold my hand as a reward?"

"What kind of reward..." Seemingly dissatisfied with the fact that Xiao Yao gave him a reward from above, Sword Demon complained softly, but no matter how you looked at it, it seemed a little lacking in confidence.

"Why? Don't you want to? Connecting with me can share my definition?" Xiao Yao said in a voice full of temptation: "Don't you want to experience the pleasure of being a creature?"

"I mean... if I do connect with you, do I still need to jump or something?"

Xiao Yao was stunned for a moment, then understood what the sword demon meant, smiled and reached out to pull the sword demon directly: "Okay, then play as you like."

Hansel looked at a black tentacle in front of him. It really looked like an octopus foot, but it didn't have a suction cup. Instead, it was in a translucent form, wriggling slowly like black jelly. It looked a little cute, but Hansel didn't have the desire to touch it.

"What should we do now?" Hansel asked casually.

"This thing can't be cut off. Once it catches the creatures at the level of reason, it won't let go. Although it can be separated by magical items, it's still useless in the end. The corridor in Flanders is too long Now, no one’s magic power can support the whole journey and reach the bottom. Although the group of baroque mages did not put any lethal traps here, this thing is comparable to those fire-breathing mechanisms or moving stone statues. It works a lot better," Benjamin explained.

"Then how the hell did Ingram get to the bottom...?" Gretel asked.

"Please don't count him as a magician. In fact, you don't even need to treat him as a human being. I don't know what he can do—for example, walk the entire distance." Benjamin shrugged.

"I don't think Ingram may have encountered these things. The mechanism must have the triggering conditions of the mechanism. Otherwise, the magician of the Baroque school would be unable to move here. Since you said that Shadowbeard can only catch creatures on the level of logic, Then I think the reason we set off from the agency is because we are creatures of the level of reason." Hansel said.

"Are you saying that the magicians of the Baroque school are not considered as rational creatures?" Benjamin asked back.

"What's surprising? Magicians of the Baroque school are keen on magic at the level of shadows. Magicians who can enter Flanders must be extremely accomplished in magic at the level of shadows. There must be something in them. Mediums from the plane of shadow—or they themselves have been made mediums—that's why baroque magicians have no trouble in Flanders."

"You mean that Ingram may have mastered the magic of the shadow level?" Benjamin asked.

"I'm basically sure, as you said just now, Mr. Benjamin, you really don't know what your nephew can do." Hansel finished his inspection of Shadowbeard and stood up.

"What about Creek and Enank?" Gretel asked.

"It's even more impossible for the two of them, not to mention whether they know the magic of the shadow level, they are not even creatures, they are just filthy people crawling out of the dead, and these shadow whiskers certainly have no effect on them. interest."

"Then what should we do?" Gretel showed an anxious expression.

"We can probably pray for the gods to fall from the sky for...rescue..." Hansel said and looked up, and when he looked up again, his eyes suddenly opened wide, as if there was some god's salvation from the sky. Like falling down.

"what happened?"

Seeing Hansel's surprised expression, Gretel also looked up, but he didn't see clearly what the rapidly descending thing was. He only felt a strong wind flashing past him with a black shadow, falling into him. He fell into the abyss in front of him, he was still dazed, he felt a tightness around his waist, something like a rope was tied around his waist, and before he could react, it pulled him down together.

"Han..."

As soon as Gretel wanted to call Hansel's name, he was swallowed by the strong wind when he fell, so he had to hold his breath. With his barely opened eyes, he could see that the one who was dragging him was the sword demon. Holding a startling salamander that turned Flanders into a crater, a monster with metal-like hair color, it held the rope around him with one hand, and hugged Xiaoyao with the other, Xiaoyao lazily leaned on the sword On the demon's shoulder, he looked at Gretel playfully.

Have they passed through that dark corridor?So fast?What are they going to do now?Is it going to kill us?Why are they falling further?Did they jump off by themselves?Are they going to commit suicide?

Countless thoughts lingered in Gretel's mind, and he couldn't figure it out for a while. If it was Hansel, he might be able to guess what the two monsters were going to do, but he really didn't know anything about these two non-human creatures. idea.

"Okay...then it should be almost there."

The sword demon seemed to have said something like this, and then suddenly stopped in mid-air. Gretel felt as if he had suddenly fallen into invisible water. The gust of wind that rushed towards him just now disappeared suddenly, and he began to descend slowly. At this moment, he found that he was not the only one who fell down, but also Hansel and Benjamin. It seemed that both of them were tied by the rope and pulled down just like him.

"It shouldn't be trying to kill us."

Hansel seemed to know what Gretel was thinking, and he opened his mouth to answer. Gretel realized that there seemed to be no sound in the surroundings. He could only know what he wanted to express by reading Hansel's lips. Fortunately, the tacit understanding between their partners for many years is still there. .

Don't want to kill us?What are they trying to do?

The sword demon glanced at Hansel and Gretel who were communicating, but did not respond. Instead, they let go of the rope that bound them. The moment it let go, the rope turned into light particles and disappeared. Then the sword demon waved its free hand in the air, and a huge lightsaber in the shape of a big sword appeared in front of the sword demon. The sword was 34 meters long, and Gretel had no doubts. If the sword fell down, it would directly smash him into meat paste.

The sword demon waved his hand again, as if brushing off the dust on the giant sword, the light covering the giant sword also disappeared, and what appeared in front of the three was a sword with a pitch-black body, but the workmanship was amazing. A very fine giant sword, Gretel can even see his own shadow clearly on the edge of this giant sword, it does not appear rough at all because of his huge size, it is even more delicate than those delicate small swords meticulous.

"what is this?"

Of course it was a sword, and what Gretel didn't understand was why there was such a sword, it looked more like an ornament for showing off than a weapon for attacking - because no one could wave it.

Except for the sword demon in front of him.

In fact, the sword demon doesn't need to swing a sword at all, because its definition is that magic is a weapon, it can pick out anything that can be called a weapon, it is the sword itself, and it uses weapons-this may be a bit strange-like Yes the weapons use themselves the same way.

Xiao Yao waved its arm again, this time its movement was a slashing movement, the huge sword complied with the will of the Sword Demon, turned its blade, and slashed straight at the square in the middle of the Flanders Palace. The pillar, the giant sword collided with the giant pillar, making a deafening roar like an earthquake, the giant sword cut deeply into the giant pillar, and the surrounding shadow whiskers began to make a sharp sound like howling, of course, because they did not make a sound organs, so these sounds are produced by the high-speed vibration of their bodies. This sound is irregular, like the sound of a broken violin, sharp and noisy. Gretel saw hundreds of thousands The shadow whiskers rushed towards them like crazy.

"Defense," the sword demon suddenly said. Although Gretel and the others couldn't speak in this slowly descending space, it seemed that it had no effect on the demon clan: "Do your best to defend as hard as you can, anyway, these shadow whiskers will only Feel the existence of creatures, they can't feel our monster race, if you don't work hard, you will die——I have no obligation to save you."

Benjamin was the quickest to react. As soon as the Sword Demon's words fell, a thick ice barrier enveloped them all, blocking all the Shadowbeards that came after them.

"As expected of the ruler of Star Frost, you can use ice magic like your fingers, but if you use shadow-level magic, destroying these hundreds of shadow whiskers is like weeding with fire magic..." Xiao Yao said Halfway through, Benjamin glared at him. Xiaoyao smiled and glanced at the sword demon. The sword demon understood and pulled the giant sword out of the giant pillar with a wave of his hand, then raised it again.

"babble----!"

The shadow whiskers made a higher and sharper sound, and the tentacles wrapped around the ice barrier gradually tightened. There was only a crisp click, and a crack appeared in the ice barrier. They seemed to recognize that the people in these ice barriers wanted to destroy them. The people of Juzhu, in fact, in order to protect themselves, the current Shadowbeards will attack all creatures, regardless of whether there is any magic power at the shadow level. However, the monster race is not a creature. It is as indistinguishable from the stones on the wall.

"boom--"

The giant sword slashed towards the center of the giant pillar again, and the sword demon clicked his tongue. It seemed that it hadn't damaged the core of the giant pillar yet.

"Gretel," Hansel looked at Gretel, and slowly said to Gretel with his lips: "You try to put a water magic to replace the ice barrier nearby."

"Water system? What are you talking about? That thing will be destroyed soon!"

"Try," Hansel said, looking at the huge sword raised again, "I guess it will take some time for the sword monster to destroy the core of that giant pillar, as it said, we can only struggle desperately to defend ourselves .”
