Ultimate Assassin System
Chapter 905: Sacrifice the flag and win a fortune
PS: I would like to thank my book friends Shadow Sniper, Lone Soul Night Shadow and Miko Yu for their rewards~!
Generally speaking, when stationary, the barbarian army's defense strength is much worse than Bran's. The reason has little to do with the strength of the army, but only because of attitude.
In comparison, Bran's army's marching formation was more rigorous and standardized, and there were many fewer flaws and loopholes. The barbarians are loose and informal by nature, so they don't pay much attention to these things, so the army structure is much looser.
Of course, the latter situation does not appear in this small city now. The perimeter guard here is quite tight, even tighter than the average Bran army. It is no exaggeration to say that if Tang En did not rely on disguise to sneak in and move freely in this small town, it would really take a lot of effort... It is precisely because of this that Tang En can't help but feel more confident and more certain about the assassination target. The object is here!
The visit during the day went smoothly. Tang En encountered almost no trouble and strolled around the entire city.
Compared with the water outside the small town that cannot be poured in, the guards inside the city are much looser. Maybe they didn't expect someone to be able to disguise themselves as a companion and conduct inspections right under their noses. So even though Tang En encountered many barbarian patrols throughout the day, they only glanced at them and nodded in a friendly way as a greeting. The strict one just asked Tang En to show his identity, asked a few random questions, and waved him off if he found nothing...
Of course, this isn't the case everywhere. For example, in places such as the City Lord's Mansion and the East City Noble Manor Area, it was still impossible for Tang En to walk in arrogantly... Tang En didn't even think about going in. After being discouraged from wandering around the perimeter. He apologized very discerningly and left. Silently make a mental note of this sensitive area. Then after a while, change the direction and walk around again to see which section of the wall is suitable for climbing...
Throughout the whole day, Tang En wandered around the city. This obviously abnormal behavior was naturally noticed by many barbarian guards. However, they did not become suspicious. Instead, they smiled mockingly, showing a sense of superiority...
The reason was simple. At some point, Tang En had a huge bag on his back. It was bulging and seemed to contain a lot of things, giving it the shape of a homeless person.
Haha, where did this silly green guy come from...
The appearance of a homeless man is certainly not enough to eliminate suspicion, but the bulging cloth bag gives another meaning... The prosperity of Bran Town is a common sense that goes deep into the hearts of every barbarian in the Northern Wilderness, and it is also the driving force that drives them to continue to invade. Therefore, after occupying a farm in Bran Town, apart from killing people, the barbarians were most interested in looting food and various valuables.
in this way. Tang En's weird appearance and slightly sneaky behavior seemed normal to the barbarian guards - he was just a scavenger! And he is also a not very smart scavenger. You must know that they have occupied this small town for a few days. Various buildings, inside and outside, have been raided several times by them. Except for Bran's clothes that cannot be worn, everything of value has been looted. Where is there anything left? What valuables can be picked up?
Soon, the peaceful day passed quietly. As evening approached, Tang En carried the big bag back with satisfaction, humming a little tune and looking very relaxed. The barbarian guard also saw enough of the joke, shook his head jokingly, and decided to publicize this interesting topic when he went back...
Everyone is happy.
…
By the time Tang En disposed of the garbage bag and returned to the wealthy merchant's manor in Beicheng District, it happened to be dinner time. The middle-aged barbarian officer was not seen in the dining place, but the dozen or so Dark Snake Guards looked at Tang En walking in. Their expressions suddenly became gloomy, and the previously lively atmosphere instantly became cold.
Tang En didn't pay attention, and he didn't say hello as silly as usual. Instead, he calmly took a meal and sat at the corner of the dining table, eating silently and seriously.
Then the atmosphere got weird. The deliberate indifference disappeared and was replaced by the true sense of silence and solemnity!
In such a large restaurant, except for the sound of gnawing and chewing from Tang En, it was as quiet as ice. The dozen or so Dark Snake Guards on the side kept making eye contact, all looking confused and confused...
It was rare that the middle-aged barbarian officer was not here. These Dark Snake Guards originally planned to show Tang En some humiliation and repay the humiliation they had inflicted on the tribe in the past few days. But somehow, looking at Tang En who was eating silently now, it was vaguely like looking at a prehistoric monster that was about to leap out to prey, and they were the uneasy little herbivorous beasts beside them. There was a hoarse roar echoing in my ears - 'If you dare to provoke me, I will kill you! ’
Swallowing hard, the Dark Snake Guards felt their throats were a little dry and tight. They subconsciously loosened their leather armor, but they still couldn't breathe...
Fortunately, Tang En's appetite seemed to be average today. He only ate a few pieces of meat. After sitting for less than three minutes, he simply got up and left.
As soon as the figure disappeared outside the door, there suddenly seemed to be more than a dozen old bellows in the restaurant. There were loud wheezing and wheezing sounds, sometimes mixed with violent coughs caused by choking on food, and it was instantly chaotic. Until this moment, these Dark Snake Guards were still confused, not knowing what had just happened, let alone what had happened to them...
Illusion? I'm actually afraid of that stupid big man? What a shame!
He didn't pay attention to the movement behind him. When he walked back to the door of the room leisurely, Tang En paused for a moment, turned his head, and looked at the middle-aged barbarian officer who came around from the other side. A simple and honest look appeared on his face as big as a basin again. Smile: My lord is back, have you had dinner?.
Uh, not yet. Even though he had heard it many times on the way here, the middle-aged barbarian officer was obviously not used to this unique and straightforward way of greeting him. He was stunned for a moment before replying with a smile, I'll meet you at noon. You just came back, but brother Saba, you actually spent a whole day wandering around the city?
He smiled and scratched his head, Haha, I came from a poor valley and have never seen the world...
After chatting for a few words, the middle-aged barbarian officer who was eager to eat quickly left. Tang En glanced around, suppressed his smile, pushed open the wooden door, stepped in, and walked in.
Snap, turn around and close the wooden door. Didn't light the lamp, didn't go to the bed. Take a few steps forward in the dark house. Pulled up a wooden chair. Place it on one side of the wall. That's where the shadows are the heaviest in the house.
Sit down, put your hands on your knees, and close your eyes. He remained motionless for a long time, letting his figure be slowly shrouded in the fading dusk, like a statue!
By acting this way, Tang En was naturally not just moaning and pretending because he was full, but he was thinking and deducing. The brain is thinking rapidly, and the scalp is gradually numb. Gradually, a virtual map spread out from under the feet, and streets and houses continued to appear out of thin air. Then teams of patrolling barbarians appeared, following the established route and following the orderly shift rules, and kept moving forward. Moving, extending, intertwining into a huge and fine patrol network... Finally, a majestic building appeared at the end, that was the City Lord's Mansion!
Huh... He breathed out slowly. His brows were slightly furrowed, and there were traces of sweat on his temples.
Immediately. On the virtual map, a black dot representing Tang En started from under his feet, appearing and disappearing, advancing and retreating. It seemed chaotic, but wherever it went, it was precisely where the joints of this fine network were broken. Like a fish, it flies by lightly...
Seeing this, yes, Tang En decided to take action, tonight!
In fact, it is not impossible to postpone it a little longer. He has three days, so there is no need to act in such a hurry.
But things changed later, and Bran's army had now intervened. Tang En was not sure whether the mysterious barbarian commander could see this, but the killer's instinct made Tang En habitual of exaggerating how difficult the target of his assassination would be. So he can't wait any longer. If the mysterious barbarian commander decides to move his army tomorrow morning and change the stationing location, then his whole day's check-in operation will be directly nullified...
After a moment, when the little black dot successfully arrived under the outer wall of the City Lord's Mansion, Tang En slowly opened his eyes, and the virtual map disappeared instantly.
After a day of visiting locations, as long as the mysterious barbarian commander was in the city, Tang En was 80% sure that he was in the city lord's palace. Of course, because of this, it would be a warning. Tang En did not conduct any tests during the day, so he did not know what was there...
Rubbing his brows to calm down the overly active nervous thoughts in his brain, Tang En closed his eyes again, this time to take a nap.
At this time, outside the house, the night becomes darker...
...(Small PS: I really want to break the chapter here, but I'm afraid you'll hit me...Okay, it's still 5,000 chapters, don't click here...)
…
Late at night, early in the morning, everything is quiet.
He opened his eyes, stood up, and stepped out of the dark corner. As if a ghost from the underworld suddenly returned to the world, Tang En's figure appeared again in this dark room.
There was still no light on, but this did not affect Tang En's actions at all. It's not because of his night vision. In fact, even if he is blindfolded, Tang En can dance a ballet in this room without touching any tables, chairs and benches... Of course, if he can dance ballet.
Immediately, a soft rustling sound broke the silence, as if she was taking off her clothes. Then there was the sound of running water again. Well, he must be washing his face.
Of course, this wasn't that Tang En suddenly got cold feet and wanted to wash up and go to bed directly, but that he was taking off his barbarian disguise.
Although this image has solved Tang En a lot of trouble before, and presumably it will also play a role in subsequent actions. For example, even if he is caught on the spot, he will not be killed immediately. But Tang En still decided to return to his true colors... The reason was simple, this barbarian was too bloated. Tang En thought that even if he found a bunker during the infiltration, he still had to worry about whether there would be an own-goal problem...
Take off all disguises and put on black clothes for night travel. He leaned over, buried his head, and dipped his head into the ice water in the basin... A few minutes later, Tang En's face, covered with water stains, appeared again in the wooden mirror on the basin, grinning silently and smiling brightly.
Come on, old bird!
There was no point in self-encouragement. He picked up a towel and was about to put it on his face to wipe away the water stains. His ears suddenly moved. Tang En couldn't help shaking his head and laughing, saying to himself, Haha, it's really a dark and windy murderous night. Ah…since we all have such a tacit understanding, let’s use your knife to sacrifice the flag first and get some luck.”
After saying that, the towel was put back in place, and Tang En's figure disappeared from where he was.
At this time, on the roof tiles, several figures were crawling slowly and silently like geckos. Occasionally, moonlight pours down from the gaps between dark clouds. Who are those dark snake guards?
The strange scene that happened in the restaurant in the evening still failed to make these dark snake guards wary and alert. On the contrary, he felt that he had been humiliated again, so he became murderous and decided to kill this stupid man who was lucky.
As the saying goes. Don’t seek death. He won't die. They are all living in the dark world. Naturally, it is no wonder that people have poor eyesight.
When Tang En appeared on the roof like a ghost, these dark snake guards were still crawling silently without realizing it. It seemed that they were going to climb to the top of the bed, and then parachute directly to Tang En and give him a heart-wrenching blow... Well, just It’s good to be able to express my thoughts…
Shaking his head, Tang En turned over his hand and revealed the dagger. He walked silently to the last Dark Snake Guard and reached out to pat the other person's shoulder.
Don't make trouble. His palm was slapped away. The Dark Snake Guard didn't even look back.
Tang En was startled when he saw this, curled his lips slightly, and stretched out his hand again, this time with his right hand. He tapped the opponent's shoulder with a sharp dagger... Why the hell are you slapping it away again to show me? !
After a while, he looked at his former teammates lying on the bed and now several corpses. Tang En counted and found that the number was wrong. It seems that this operation was only carried out by these dark snake guards in private, and not all of them came together.
But at this time, Tang En certainly didn't dare to take risks. Who knows if those Dark Snake Guards who didn't come over are waiting for news. If I look for it later, I find something is wrong. Then his infiltration operation would be aborted midway.
After thinking about it, Tang En decisively pushed out the window and decided to kill them all...
…
A small incident, after nipping the hidden danger in the bud, naturally had no impact on Tang En's plan tonight. In fact, with these useless materials, Tang En couldn't even waste his time.
After leaving the manor and waiting in the corner for a quarter of an hour, Tang En saw a group of barbarian patrols walking past the street in front of him. Tang En moved as fast as the wind, just like the rigorous steps he had set in his mind before. He quietly cut into this huge and fine patrol network without any ripples.
A curfew must have been implemented, and the town seemed extremely lonely at this time. The illuminated crystal pillars on the street that had not yet been destroyed were working hard to project a dim light, illuminating a large area. As for the destroyed sections of road, they were replaced by fires, burning with dead branches and crackling. Normally, this time and place would be the favorite place for nightingales in the small town to attract customers, because here, the bright lights will make their exposed skin extremely white, adding a bit of seductive charm.
As for now, those who appeared under the lamp were patrol guards who were either yawning or joking with each other to drive away their sleepiness. They were all tall and thick, with luxuriant body hair and no sense of beauty at all.
Of course, Tang En would not look at the only passerby. In fact, Tang En is not in that mood now. He is a little depressed because the patrol patterns he spent a lot of time observing during the day and the various coping methods he came up with seem a bit inapplicable now.
It's not that the barbarians have changed their rules, doing one thing during the day and another at night. It's just one thing during the day, but no one at night... Ahem, don't get it wrong, this is irresponsible...
That's right, except for a small number of barbarian teams who are still patrolling, most of the barbarian soldiers who were patrolling seriously during the day are now hiding in the leeward, holding up wine cans, bumping into each other and shouting, drinking. A Hi!
This is actually the consistent style of barbarian soldiers. Regardless of whether they are elite or ordinary, as long as they are not on the battlefield, they are all a bit undisciplined. Of course, the main reason for this is that the upper echelons of the military did not disclose Lansha's true identity in order to avoid attracting attention. Otherwise, even with the courage of these barbarian soldiers, they would not dare to be so lax when protecting His Royal Highness.
Tang En, who didn't know the inside story, was a little doubtful of his previous judgment when he saw this. He really couldn't believe that this was how the barbarians protected their supreme commander. Could it be that the target was not in the city? Is this just a trap?
Well, because of the misunderstanding between the two parties, Tang En was very confused for a while.
However, even though he felt a little unsure, there was no turning back when he opened his bow. It was coming, and Tang En was of course not willing to go back empty-handed. After hesitating for a moment, he decided to explore the city lord's mansion.
The subsequent sneaking was simple. Although all the previously expected coping methods did not come in use, Tang En inevitably felt as depressed as punching cotton. But it is undoubtedly easier for him to avoid these fixed obstacles.
Soon, Tang En successfully reached the outskirts of the City Lord's Mansion in almost one-third of the time expected.
Fortunately, looking at the City Lord's Mansion, which was as tightly guarded as it was during the day, it finally gave Tang En some hope. Without hesitation, he came to the invasion position that he had hoped for during the day, at the high wall on the south side of the city lord's palace.
The reason why I chose this place is not that the guard strength here is weaker than elsewhere. Just because it is closer to the nearest bunker, the tall trees lining the road, than other places.
Quietly arriving among the branches of the trees, Tang En looked down and confirmed the distance again. Then he took a slight breath, not paying attention to the barbarian guards walking back and forth on the high wall, lying quietly, waiting for something.
Not long after, an omnipresent cold wind from the north suddenly blew, rustling, stirring the branches and leaves of the two rows of trees beside the road.
coming--
His narrow eyes suddenly narrowed slightly. Tang En decisively kicked on the trunk of the tree and rushed towards the high wall like an arrow from a string. Then in the next moment, the figure disappeared into the air.
Wow - the cold wind passed over the high wall, and the barbarian guard shivered. He seemed to feel something, and subconsciously looked up. The night sky was still dark and boundless. Turning back to look at the street, it was empty except for two rows of roaring trees. Everything was as usual.
What's wrong?
Nothing...well, it felt like something flew over my head just now...
Is there any? Maybe it's a nighthawk...
Stop guessing, go quickly, go quickly... Damn it, if you stop here, you will freeze to death...
