Ultimate Assassin System

Chapter 1005 A plan within a plan?

A great disturbance!

As I have often said before, there are no secrets in aristocratic circles. .. Before the white-haired old nobleman galloped into the royal castle and hurriedly reported to the eldest prince, the news that someone intended to assassinate the Pope had quickly spread among the top noble circles in the capital. First came the relatives who were close to the royal family, then came several old big families that controlled the country's affairs, and then came the dukes, marquises, earls, etc., and it continued to spread...

To be honest, except for a few big figures such as the eldest prince, the first reaction of the other nobles when they heard the news was as if they were hearing a joke, and they were very cold...

Assassinate the Pope? What a joke!

Not to mention the feasibility of this plan...well, there really isn't much to say. This clearly means that there is no chance of life, and there is no hope of success. The thousand-year end essence of the temple is placed there. It is as thick as a majestic mountain and as mighty as a river and sea. It is good if you don't take the initiative to crush others. Who else dares to commit suicide and provoke it?

but,

When everyone had a relaxed attitude of watching a show, they were relaxed when they heard the assassin's somewhat familiar name - 'Twain', and randomly sent people to inquire about the origin of this guy who didn't know how to write the word death. The casual mentality disappeared instantly...

What? This guy was once wanted by the Empire and the Temple? No wonder this name sounds familiar... By the way, why is he wanted? Because... uh, four great deacons of light, one inspector of the four directions, one cardinal vicar, and three holy knights were killed in a single cannon attack on the northern battlefield? ! this……

besides……

Last year, this guy went head-to-head with the Northern Temple Association again, single-handedly and with familiarity. In just over half a year, the temple's influence in the north, which has been painstakingly managed for more than a thousand years, will be at its lowest. The foundation of faith was greatly shaken. This laid the foundation for the subsequent collapse and retreat of the temple's power in the north. Soon after. He also led an unparalleled powerful man to attack the Northern Temple Association directly, slapped him in the face, and escaped without saying a word. He also cut the Northern Temple Association in two with a knife, losing his face...

Well, there is actually——

This time it is no longer the Temple of Light that is in trouble, but the sword god Woodin, known as the patron saint of Bran! The time was about a few months ago, and the location was on the Lenau River. The specific situation of the battle is unclear. All I knew was that this guy was blocking the way of the Sword God and his party in the center of the river. Then a shocking battle ensued. The water levels of thousands of miles of rivers receded, and countless prosperous ports were reduced to small inland towns overnight... In the end, the Sword God retired injured and is still traveling to this day. He didn't come out of Wangting Sanatorium. But this guy escaped once again, and now he's jumping out to cause trouble...

In addition, Wen Silin once led many air-level experts to encircle and suppress others, and the Temple Association personally sent an elite team thousands of miles away to strangle them, etc. Compared with the previous ones, it can be ignored...

have to say. When a behemoth becomes interested in a single individual, the intelligence gathering capabilities it unleashes are absolutely astonishing. I am afraid that even Tang En himself has never thought about how he has done so many earth-shattering things along the way. However, when this information was clearly organized and placed in front of the nobles one by one, they were extremely shocked and panicked.

As Powis emphasized, he really dared to assassinate the Pope! And judging from the historical record, no one can guarantee that he will have no hope of success...

In this way, it is truly a stone that stirs up thousands of waves!

Of course, people like the eldest prince, who had known the inside story of the temple and Xia Wei'an for a long time, were mentally prepared for Tang En's arrival, and naturally they would not panic. What made them a little unexpected and unprepared was that Tang En would play such a big game this time. It seemed that he not only wanted to save people, but also hunted rabbits and killed the Pope along the way...

But then again, no matter whether it was shock, panic, confusion or disbelief, no one could remember that the source of this shocking news was Wen Silin's stabbing death. In other words, Wen Silin, a character who is still ranked high in the capital, has been ignored by everyone. Just like the heavy snow that covered the capital in the middle of the night, it covered it and left no trace.

Of course, not everyone is like this...

In the middle of the night, Philip broke into the Imperial Sanatorium smelling of alcohol. He stood in front of Wooding's door. After calming down his excitement for a while, he chuckled and said, Grandpa, that rip-off guy is dead. The knife hit him right between the eyebrows. There is no pain. Haha, it makes him easier...

After a moment of silence, Woodin's old voice sounded like a mosquito in the room, Send a bouquet of flowers to Haita, cough cough... Also, I have time to go up to the mountain and get my sword.

Okay, I will personally convey the good news to Brother Haita with wine. After a pause, Philip looked slightly surprised, Go up the mountain to get the sword? Why is that? With Wooding's current weak physical condition, he would not use the sword again. It is undoubtedly extremely unwise.

Could it be that...grandfather is trying to wipe out the roots and wipe out the Wensilin family?

Don't ask any questions, just do as you are told. Before Phillip could think about it, an old voice came from the room again.

Being drunk, Philip didn't think much and simply nodded and said, Okay. By the way, Grandpa, there are rumors in the circle that Tang En is going to assassinate the Pope. Ha, I don't believe this is something that those losers from the Security Department can investigate. The guy who came out must be holding back something bad. But if he takes the initiative to expose it... the temple will definitely be prepared for martial law after getting the news. Wouldn't it be more difficult to take action?

After the words fell, he waited for a moment in silence.

Phillip shrugged without any surprise. After bowing and saluting, thinking about the corpse of Wen Silin he saw not long ago, he hummed a tune and left relaxedly.

When Philip left the Imperial Sanatorium, at the Capital Theatre, after repeated and detailed inquiries from several big figures, Powers and Bernie finally stepped out of the theater door full of exhaustion.

They looked at each other, smiled bitterly, shook their heads, said nothing, and strode away directly on the snow.

Ah... Bernie left the theater, picked up the cold snow on the roadside and rubbed his cheeks. After sneezing a few times, he raised his head and exhaled, shook his head speechlessly, and was the first to break the silence. Well, it seems that we two brothers are really not destined to get promoted and get rich...Old Bao, please make up your mind. When will we run away?

Okay, what's there to complain about? Isn't this better than losing your life? Powers sighed helplessly, wiping his red nose.

I don't think it's much better. Bernie curled his lips, When the eldest prince and those big shots react later, they will know that we are collaborating to deceive. The consequences... After a pause, he covered his face and sighed softly. , I can't imagine it!

He spread his hands and said, That's what happens later. At least, we're still alive now, aren't we?

...That's right. After thinking about it, Bernie raised his eyebrows and nodded convinced.

That's right, the two of them lied. The questions they answered sternly from the big shots just now were actually lies that they had colluded with Tang En for a long time. There is no way, no choice. With Tang En's current strength, killing an air-level expert was just a joke, so killing the two of them was naturally easier.

And since Powers and Bernie have been traveling around for so long, they are naturally not single-minded people with a strong sense of justice. After briefly thinking about the huge gap in strength between the two sides, he immediately agreed without making any demands. In this way, there was a scene in the theater not long ago...

I still can't figure it out... Bernie looked confused as he scratched his hair randomly, If I'm not mistaken, that guy probably wanted to attract everyone's attention by throwing out this shocking plan so that he could secretly achieve other goals. . But to assassinate the Pope...well, although he does have a slight chance of success, this plan is too sensational and illogical!

This is the fact. Not many people are real fools. As long as they are rational, making false claims in the east and secretly scheming with others is not a smart idea. People with some sense will have doubts in this regard. What's more important is that the plan proposed by Tang En is too vague. If he said that the plan is to randomly select and assassinate a noble every few days in the next few days, then it is guaranteed that all the nobles in the capital will be frightened and convinced. No doubt, I am in constant panic all day long... However,

Not necessarily! Not everyone is logical in everything they do. After pondering for a while, Powers' one eye flashed slightly and he slowly shook his head, My opinion is exactly the opposite of yours. That guy is not a person who plays his cards according to common sense. Not sure... He paused, hesitated to speak, and finally did not continue. But of course Bernie knew what he meant and opened his mouth in shock,

Uh, no, Old Bao, what do you mean... is a trap? Is he really going to stab, assassinate... At this point, Bernie got excited and couldn't go on anymore. He slapped his thigh and said, Fuck... Damn it! It’s possible, very possible! This guy is not a law-abiding master. He does things that others don’t dare to do...

Okay! He simply waved his hand to interrupt, and Powers let out a long breath, It's just a guess, it's useless to say it. Let's go, it's more practical for us to consider how to escape.

Bernie was stunned for a moment, and realized in an instant that this was not the time to talk about this. He helplessly spread his hands and rolled his eyes: It's not all you. That guy even offered to take us back to the north safely afterward. He also said Find us an easy job, but you refuse...

Nonsense! What if he wants to silence him? Can you handle it?

Ha, if you want to silence me, you've already killed me. Why don't you wait until later? Admit it, Old Bao, you just can't lose face. You feel that the mole you used to play with in applause has now become a man-eating lion. In your heart, make life difficult for……
