[Comprehensive] The Last Assassin

The assassin landed silently on the huge crystal chandelier above the dance floor on the fourth floor.

The main control power supply of the castle was burned down and could not be restored for a while, so others naturally couldn't see clearly the gray-robed figure hidden in the crystal, scanning everything from top to bottom.

Holding the steel rope of the crystal chandelier in one hand, Shen Qiong squatted on one knee on the metal ring in the center of the ceiling.Her eyes quickly flicked over a Templar or castle staff passing through the hall - all people and everything were captured by her eyes, far or near, even To stare or flit indiscriminately.

This is the skill of assassins, and it is the way they rely on detection.

Shen Qiong held her breath. If you closed your eyes, you wouldn't believe that there was a person above this room.After all, the ceiling has never swayed, the air has never turned, and even the beating of the heart seems almost inaudible.

The ordinary maids downstairs were even more unaware of carrying the kettle, laughing and walking forward.Shen Qiong pricked up her ears, only to hear that they were discussing others shyly.

"Have you seen Mr. Bishop's new guest?"

"You mean the dark-haired priest? Well, I caught a glimpse of him as he passed the cloister, and he looked very ill-tempered."

"I didn't pay attention to this, but he is indeed very handsome. Have you heard what the bishop called him? Your Excellency Mordred, at such a young age, but being called that by the bishop seems to have a bright future in the Holy See. "

The maids are still chirping, but Shen Qiong's heart is full of waves!

Mordred!

Shen Qiong's emerald-colored eyes flashed with infinite fighting intent. She couldn't forget the man's mocking smile at her twice, and she couldn't forget that she could only watch this man run away twice in succession, and had no way to track him down. .

"Your Excellency Mordred?" Shen Qiong raised the corners of her lips, followed the direction of the maid's words and looked towards the reception room on the second floor, her tone was soft, "It seems that there is trouble tonight."

Like a butterfly fluttering its wings, Shen Qiong fell from the crystal chandelier with her claws, and she successfully knocked out the two maids without any hindrance.She dragged the two maids into a random unoccupied room in the corridor, stripped off their coats, and changed them for herself.

When Shen Qiong hid the belt under the white apron, she glanced at herself in the full-length mirror. Her long black hair was wrapped in a turban, and only a pair of rebellious eyes did not seem to match the black and white maid outfit. .

Shen Qiong raised her eyebrows: "Well, things can't always be perfect, just look a little bit."

After all, Shen Qiong touched the kettle carried by a maid before, and stepped out of the room covered with red blankets with thick-soled military boots. The moment the door closed—the assassin immediately closed his eyes, Bending slightly, he hurried forward.

The Templars passed her by, and no one even noticed that there was something wrong with the "maid".

In order to ensure that the patrols will not be affected, Bernard even adopted the nineteenth-century method of assigning wandering maids to add water to these patrolling guards.When Shen Qiong saw the two maids holding the kettle, she probably knew what they were doing. It was because of this that she decided to use their identities to walk in the house.Seeing such an arrangement, apart from ridiculing Bernard's old-fashionedness and cowardice in his heart, Shen Qiong couldn't help but think that if Tony Stark needed this kind of protection, he would definitely use the on-call Robot to complete the deployment.

Relying on such a convenient identity and her amazing lockpicking skills, Shen Qiong managed to get into Bernard's room from the fourth floor very smoothly.She and Dick have a clear division of labor. Dick is responsible for solving the unavoidable patrol guards in advance, and is responsible for breaking the castle's security and surveillance systems.Shen Qiong was in charge of checking Bernard's location and collecting data.So the two of them started from the top, and the other started cleaning from the downstairs.

As expected by Dick at first, Bernard's private area is basically on the fourth floor.The first floor is the lobby and the servant's room, the second floor is the living room and the ballroom, and the third and fourth floors are where Bernard's daily activities take place.

But obviously Bernard is not currently on the fourth floor.

Shen Qiong found traces of Bernard's office in the room at the corner of the fourth floor.

She first turned on her mobile phone, woke up Jarvis, and relied on this omnipotent AI housekeeper to destroy the password and firewall of Bernard's private computer, and frantically transmitted the data in the other party's computer to Tony's host.While waiting, she broke the lock on Bernard's desk and searched inside his desk for a while before finding a photo that was barely a clue.

This photo was crossed out with a red marker. Shen Qiong looked at it and found that it was a young man with black hair and blue eyes. Her gaze was fixed on the photo, and she always felt that this person looked familiar.

Shen Qiong turned the photo over.

Scrawled hastily on the back: Mordred.

Shen Qiong left the door, had just locked the door, walked down the stairs within two steps, and met the patrolling guard captain, who staggered with her for three more steps, suddenly paused, and turned to stop her.

"come here."

When Shen Qiong heard this, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly.She turned around and bowed to salute: "Hi sir, what can I do?"

The team leader stared at her for a while, then held up his water bottle and said, "Pour me some water."

Shen Qiong poured water into the team leader's kettle, and was about to turn around, but was suddenly held by the opponent.

The Templar stared at her fiercely: "I don't seem to have seen you, and if I did, I would never forget."

When Shen Qiong heard this, her face didn't turn red, her heart didn't beat, she just smiled, stared at the other party as if there was nothing, and said slowly: "But you don't remember me now?"

The patrol captain was embarrassed by a young and beautiful lady, he let go of his hand and coughed: "Sorry ma'am, I don't have any other intentions, please go to your business .”

Shen Qiong nodded to him, turned around and left at the original pace.

Seeing this, the patrolman's subordinate asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

The patrol captain shook his head: "Nothing." He thought that although he had never seen this lady in the mansion before, there were so many maids in this mansion, and he hadn't seen all of them.In addition, no matter how calm Shen Qiongshi was, he could only think that he was thinking too much.

——However, there are some things in this world that really need to be thought about.

Bernard narrowed his eyes and stared at the black knight in front of him, and greeted in a false warm voice: "Your Excellency Mordred, you are not chasing the remaining assassins in Germany, why did you return to North America?"

Mordred unceremoniously sat down on the couch sofa in his reception room, his slender legs crossed, and his leather boots were placed directly on the milky white tea table in front of the couch.Mordred slightly raised his eyelids, and said with a fake smile: "I didn't intend to..."

He suddenly withdrew his feet, leaned forward and stared at Bernard's slack face, and said with a sneer, "Until you let my knight 'fall', you can't get back the items we agreed upon."

Bernard's expression was calm, but his fingers couldn't help clenching his snuff bottle even more tightly.

Mordred laughed again.He straightened up slowly, removed his pressure on Bernard, and leaned lazily on the backrest, staring at Bernard with cold blue eyes, and said without any room for negotiation: "That's why I'm here, Mr. Protagonist Are you going to break the contract? Speaking of which, I wouldn't be too surprised if you broke the contract, after all, you were a world-renowned 'shark' before you became a bishop."

Hearing this nickname, Bernard's brown pupils shrank suddenly.He put away his gentle mask, glanced at Mordred, and said coldly: "With all due respect, Your Excellency Mordred, even if you are deeply trusted by the knight commander, you are only exorcising the Holy Order." Inside."

He suddenly took out a revolver from his cuff and pointed at the man in front of him, showing a fierce look: "This is the territory of the Templars, there is no room for the Knights of the Round Table to speak!"

The atmosphere suddenly collapsed!

At this moment, regular and soft knocking sounds came from outside the door.Boom, boom, boom.

Bernard stared at Mordred, put away his gun for a long time, restrained his face viciously, and asked loudly, "Who!"

A maid's voice came from outside the house: "Mr. Bishop, I'm here to deliver refreshments."

Mordred raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and sneered with his arms spread out on the back of the bench: "My lord bishop even prepared some snacks for me?"

Bernard also found it strange, but it was not surprising that the butler ordered the servants to prepare when there were guests.After all, on the surface, Mordred and he are still colleagues.

Bernard raised his voice to order people to come in, and Mordred said coolly, "It's better for you to hand over the Piece of Eden to me first, so as not to encounter the god of death immediately and make it unknown."

Bernard sneered, disapproving, the maid opened the door and walked in with the dining cart.She looked a little nervous and looked like a novice.When Bernard almost doubted whether she could comfortably put the teapot and cookies away, the maid finished her work.

Just when the maid straightened up and leaned over to go out, Bernard suddenly noticed the right hand that was wearing a glove, which was completely bigger than the left hand.

Bernard asked coldly, "What happened to your right hand?"

The maid paused slightly when she heard the words, and when she raised her head, her emerald eyes met him.

Bernard was horrified the moment he saw the other person's appearance clearly, but Shen Qiong didn't give him any chance at all!

An assassin is like a bolt of lightning!Before you could react, you turned over and clasped your hands, and the Hidden Blade came out of its sheath and pressed against your jaw!Left | Wheel | Pistol | The gun fell from Bernard's robe, and Shen Qiong held Bernard hostage, staring at the young man who was still sitting on the velvet bench with flickering eyes.

"Don't move." Shen Qiong threatened, "or I'll stab his throat right away."

She stared at the man who was bent over trying to pick up the pistol that Bernard fell to the ground, squinted her eyes and said in a low voice, "Your Excellency Mordred, or should I call you 'Jason Toth'?"

Mordred, or should he be called Jason Toth.After the young man heard Shen Qiong's address, his eyes trembled slightly for a moment.

However, it was only for a moment.

In the next second, he quickly picked up the revolver pistol from the ground, and without a pause, he shot Bernard's throat with an extremely precise shot!

The bullet penetrated the cardinal's throat and scratched an inch of skin on Shen Qiong's neck, causing burning pain. , The young man held the gun in his hand, pointed the barrel at Shen Qiong's direction and raised it, raised his eyelids and said in a low voice, "What did you threaten me just now?"
