The Witcher: Elemental Lords
#700 - Wishful thinking
Doray snorted, a hint of disdain on his face. He couldn't win, so now he was using words, trying to get him to return the Level 6 zombie.
What wishful thinking?
The value of a Level 6 zombie couldn't be measured by warriors of the same level. Once refined, it would be absolutely loyal, absolutely obedient, and absolutely the most qualified thug. It wasn't afraid of death, wasn't afraid of taking losses, and had almost no shortcomings except for its low intelligence.
It was basically equivalent to a Level 6 warrior. Eleven Level 6 warriors was a very large force even among families of the same level. To ask him to return it was just wishful thinking on the part of this unknown force.
He raised his head, looked at the other party seriously, and said, word by word, "You're ugly and you have a beautiful imagination."
Water Shadow knew that talking to Doray here was absolutely nonsense. At most, it was just testing the other party's attitude. After assassinating him twice, it was false to say that the other party didn't hold a grudge.
If the other party wanted territory, it was this Albis Mountain. He had to report back to the higher-ups and make preparations.
He slowly opened his mouth and said in a threatening tone, "Since that's the case, then we have nothing to say. Lord Doray, please pay more attention to your safety in the future."
Doray looked at Water Shadow with a calm expression, "Mr. Shadow, when I have time, I will let you know how unworthy it is to offend me. Don't think I don't know anything. It's just that I don't have time to deal with you. I only hope that the next time you come, you better kill me in one go, otherwise, you will bear the consequences."
Water Shadow narrowed his eyes, not knowing what Doray meant. Did the other party know something?
Combining it with the organization's recent situation, he suddenly hesitated.
The Glory Empire's intelligence agency, Nightingale, and the Northwest region's Yellow Oriole organization had worked together to dig out a lot of their secrets. He still didn't know how much had been exposed. Could this all be related to Doray?
He thought about it, frowned, and said, "Then I won't trouble you, Lord. The next time we meet, we will be enemies."
Saying that, he retreated warily, then slowly went invisible and disappeared.
This time, he used an unknown method of invisibility. Even the Black Corpse Worm didn't see how the other party disappeared.
Doray became vigilant. He also quickly retreated, but he quickly realized that the other party had indeed left this place, because the sense of danger was moving away.
The two only met briefly, and neither of them told the truth. No specific information was revealed, which could be regarded as an informal declaration of war.
Doray was full of confidence. Unless he encountered a group of Level 6 experts besieging him, he would be able to sit tight on the fishing platform. With Baal, the Golden Corpse, and the Wizard Tower cluster, even if he didn't take action, he could completely force the other party back or even kill them.
Now, his main energy needed to be focused on Albis Mountain, and he simply didn't have time to pay attention to the other party.
…
Hundreds of kilometers away.
Corpse Six Four endured the pain and looked expectantly at Water Shadow, who slowly appeared with a frown. He was slightly disappointed and slowly said, "Failed?"
Water Shadow nodded and said, "Not only did the threat fail, but I also heard another piece of information from his words. He seems to know something!"
Corpse Six Four wasn't alone. Standing far away next to him were two other people. The aura on these two people was the same as Water Shadow's.
These were Shadow Fifteen and Shadow Twenty-Three from the Assassin Department.
Shadow Fifteen was a woman. At this time, she frowned and said, "What could he know? Our operation this time was too big, and we used too much power. He may have noticed some of the adventure groups that were originally hidden underground."
Water Shadow shook his head, "I always feel that his words contain other information. We did expose a lot this time, but we only exposed what we wanted to expose."
As he spoke, he passed the conversation between the two to the three of them in the form of spiritual light.
The three of them were silent.
After watching all the scenes, Shadow Twenty-Three's eyebrows stood up and his baleful aura greatly increased, "Let's not care about these things for now. Let's find a chance to assassinate him. If we can't complete this mission, we will be punished when we go back."
After repeated failures, it was their turn, the wizard assassins who had been trained for a long time, to appear. If even they failed, it could only prove one thing: this person was indeed powerful.
Water Shadow shook his head, "Don't go. According to the situation I saw last time, Doray now has a complete set of Wizard Tower clusters. As long as it's not a decisive force, sending as many people as you want is just sending them to their deaths. We're already useless. Now, he needs Albis Mountain, and we need to disrupt the situation. Let's contact those few magical beasts in the mountains and use a roundabout strategy."
Humans and magical beasts were irreconcilable and there was no possibility of peace. Contacting magical beasts was also a last resort.
Shadow Fifteen looked at Water Shadow, then at Shadow Twenty-Three, and became a little curious about this Doray.
Wasn't he only a Level 5 wizard according to the intelligence? Now, they, who could be said to be the top Level 6 assassins on the continent, were helpless. How was this possible?
Shadow Fifteen was a little unconvinced, so she thought for a while and said, "Lord Water Shadow, how about we split up? We'll go test Doray, and you'll go to Albis Mountain?"
She still didn't believe it in her heart. The previous few people didn't have the ability to deal with Doray, but that didn't mean they didn't.
Water Shadow was in charge of intelligence and had limited assassination abilities. But they were the best among assassins, specializing in walking in the darkness. They were the kings of the darkness.
As for Corpse Six Four's words, the two of them didn't really trust him. Necromancers were the enemies of all living beings.
As for the assassins who failed on the street last time, they were from the warrior side, which was different from them, the wizard assassins who specialized in walking in the darkness. They were the kings of the darkness.
Water Shadow looked at Shadow Fifteen, looked at the stubbornness in the other party's eyes, and said expressionlessly, "I can't control the affairs of your Wizard Assassin Department. I'm only in charge of intelligence, and I will report the matter to the higher-ups as it is."
Shadow Fifteen took a deep look at Water Shadow, then exchanged glances with Shadow Twenty-Three and slowly retreated.
Their figures slowly faded and soon disappeared into the vast wilderness. A breeze blew across the ground, and a burst of wind sounds came from the surroundings, as if they had never existed.
Corpse Six Four didn't even look at the two of them. The various departments within the Nightmare Empire had a competitive relationship, so it was natural that the two of them didn't look at him. Moreover, necromancers used people of various professions as undead, which made them the enemy of everyone.
Turning his head and glancing at Water Shadow, Corpse Six Four's attitude was very humble at this time, and he couldn't be proud at all. He said tangledly, "Tell the higher-ups that I won't be going back for the time being. Without undead above Level 6, my ranking will soon fall to the bottom. I have to go and prepare some things, alas!"
Water Shadow nodded and said, "I know. I will report to the higher-ups as it is. I guess they will understand. Doray's strength has seriously exceeded our imagination. Shadow Fifteen and Shadow Twenty-Three didn't listen to the advice and will probably soon follow in Corpse Six Five's footsteps. The higher-ups will know how difficult Doray is."
Corpse Six Four's mouth twitched. Doray had cultivated a Level 6 Wizard Tower cluster, and he no longer cared about anything below Level 7. This was true.
"Then I'm leaving."
After Corpse Six Four finished speaking, he covered his chest and quickly disappeared into the wilderness as well. He was seriously injured and needed to find a place to heal.
Watching Corpse Six Four disappear, Water Shadow carefully thought about the current situation. Where exactly did the problem lie? What intelligence omissions were there? What level was the other party's information level currently at?
Could there be a problem internally?
