Ultimate Assassin System

Chapter 718: Grieving attrition

Late at night, in an unknown town hundreds of miles away from Hanshui City. .

The dome was gloomy, with no stars or moon visible. Only the cold rain fell, falling on this small city that had abandoned the hustle and bustle of the day, adding a bit of coldness and loneliness.

The slums in the south of the city have long since fallen into darkness. There are almost no traces of pedestrians on the relatively wide streets. The occasional drunkard who staggers around without knowing where his home is.

Just then, suddenly,

Tat-tat-tat... The horse's hooves galloped with great force, sounding like war drums from far and near, instantly breaking the silence here.

Hearing the sound, a drunkard in the middle of the street turned his head subconsciously. In the hazy sight, he saw dozens of riders turning around the corner not far away, rolling towards them with the force of wind and thunder. Before they could react, they were already in front of them.

I don't know whether it was a real emergency or they were very confident in their riding skills. When these riders saw the drunkard in the middle of the road, they rushed straight towards him without any intention of slowing down.

He exclaimed, Fuck... At the critical moment, the drunkard's alcoholism disappeared in an instant, and he jumped out in a hurry, rolling around in confusion.

Wow... whizzing by, the horse's hooves stepped into the potholes in the street, splashing countless dirty water.

...Your mother! Holding back the curse words, the drunkard wiped the muddy water on his face and suddenly became furious, You're going to die in a hurry...huh? He stood up and turned around. The street was empty, except for the dozens of riders just now. He had already run through this street.

The drizzle still fell silently.

Putting aside how angry and cursing the drunkard was, the dozens of riders running wildly passed through several streets and finally stopped in front of a dilapidated and abandoned house in the corner of the slum.

As soon as he got off his horse, several figures appeared out of nowhere and quickly came up to him, with sad tones, Boss, Handy...

No need to say anything, come over to me!

Passing through the dilapidated wooden door and walking on a path paved with broken bricks, you will see the dimly lit main door of the main house when you look up. Your footsteps are quick, and after a few breaths, everyone walks in together.

The house was simple, with only an oil lamp and a makeshift bed made of several tables, with a white cloth covering something on top. Apart from this, there is no other furniture decoration in the house. But precisely because of this, now that more than a dozen people are walking in, the place doesn't seem too crowded.

The man who walked in first kept walking, with wet footprints, and came to the side of the bed with a solemn expression. After a pause, he slowly reached out and uncovered the white cloth. The candlelight flickered, and what came into view was a familiar pale face without any blood.

Handy, a member of the first phase of Gray Space.

Gray Space has recruited several people since its establishment. Not counting David and Michu, more than ten people including Harry, Luke, and Handy are all members of the first phase.

It can be said that they are different from the following members. At that time, because of Bolai's plan, they and Tang En were surrounded by Bran's army, and their lives hung on a thread. Then he wandered around the edge of hell several times and suffered many life and death hardships. Finally, he dug in the collapsed mine without seeing the light of day for several days and nights before finally escaping successfully.

Because of this special experience, although these members of the first group are nominally Tang En's subordinates, they are actually Tang En's brothers from life to death!

In the past two years, Tang En has faced dangers several times with Gray Space, but except for one person who died in the mine earthquake, there has never been any attrition of members in the first phase. But I never thought that another one would appear now...

The atmosphere in the room was extremely solemn. Except for the rain dripping from time to time on the corners of the clothes, there was no sound. The silence was terrifying!

The white cloth continued to be pulled away, and there were many large and small scars on Handy's body. It was obvious that he had had a fierce fight before his death. The fatal wound was on the left side of his chest, where the heart should have been beating, but now there was only a huge hole, and the wooden board underneath him could be seen.

Seeing this, Tang En's narrow eyes suddenly narrowed slightly, and his expression was so gloomy that it seemed like water could drip from his eyes.

Knock, click, click... He clenched his fists tightly and panted like an ox. David on the side stared with eyes as wide as copper bells, his eyes were about to burst, and he suddenly roared: Who is it? Who the hell did this?

Seeing the brothers who had been together through life and death, it felt as if their hearts had been ripped out. Not only David, but also Harry, Luke and others around him looked extremely sad. Although he didn't speak, the frightening and stern look in his eyes from time to time was undoubtedly showing his determination for revenge.

A middle-aged man with a gloomy expression came over. He was the head of the local secret agency and said directly: They are from the Temple of Light... At about three o'clock in the morning, a large group of Knights of Light suddenly appeared in the city and surrounded the original reward. The branch location of the Golden Hunter Guild. Master Handy happened to be in the guild at that time and had no time to escape. As a result...

You fart! David interrupted with a wave of his hand. He took a step forward and reached out to grasp the middle-aged man's clothes with a ferocious look on his face. If Brother Handy wants to leave, can those bastards from the Bright Knight stop him?

Sorry, I don't know about this either. He shook his head sadly. The middle-aged man didn't look panicked at all. He just said, Those bright knights came and disappeared even faster. After destroying the Bounty Hunter Guild, they disappeared directly out of the city. Missing. This is the only news I know so far...

David became even more anxious after hearing this, and roared angrily: Trash! You don't fucking take this matter to heart...

That's enough! A sudden roar echoed in the room. Tang En frowned and said in a cold voice, Let him go!

Whoops...whoops... David's chest rose and fell violently, as if there was unsuppressible anger hidden in it, and it was about to burst out in the next moment. However, he also knew that his question was completely unreasonable. After all, if it was true as the other party said, it would be impossible to find those bright knights who acted cleanly. In the end, he could only let out a cold snort and slowly loosened his grip on his clothes.

Tang En turned his attention to the middle-aged man, with a gloomy look on his face: Give me the order to activate all the secret agencies within a hundred miles around. Even if you dig three feet into the ground, you must find these bastards for me!

Yes! The middle-aged man accepted the order in a deep voice, saluted briefly, turned around and rushed into the rain outside.

At this time, Handy, it was me who harmed you! Looking at Handy who was motionless, Luke reached out and grabbed his hair, his eyes red, If I hadn't exchanged mission areas with you earlier, you would have done it again. How could we encounter such a disaster... It's all my fault, it's all my fault...

Of course, the Dou Qi circulation channel cannot be released only in Hanshui City. According to the original plan, each member of the first phase is responsible for an area, covering all the existing thirty branch organizations, to ensure that the Dou Qi channel is smoothly opened.

The person in charge of this small town was actually Luke, but Luke happened to be feeling a little unwell a few days ago. After Handy found out about this, he took the initiative to exchange areas of responsibility with Luke to save Luke from having to travel more than a hundred miles. But who would have thought that due to this unintentional move, when Luke saw Handy, he would have turned into a cold corpse...

Okay. Tang En frowned slightly, looking a little depressed, So what if I didn't change it before? Do you blame yourself for letting Handy face your corpse now?

Although this doesn't sound good, it is indeed true.

Handy's heart was not dug out. In fact, when Tang En saw the fatal wound for the first time just now, he already guessed that it was done by the Temple of Light. The reason was very simple. Some clergy were killing the so-called When it comes to evil heretics, whenever possible, they will target the opponent's heart as the final blow. The meaning contained in it is to purify the other party's evil soul!

And Handy's strength is not low. Although it is not as good as David and Michu, it is not something that a mere Bright Knight can stop. Judging from the ability to easily target Handy's heart as the final blow, it is obvious that there are masters among those bright knights. And in this situation, whether it was Luke or David, whoever changed here would basically have no way out.

So in the final analysis, this is fate...

After knowing the inside story, Harry's heart suddenly moved, his expression changed, and he said urgently: No, since the other party already knows that we occupy the Bounty Hunter Guild's place, then aren't the locations in other cities also in danger? ?”

Hmph! He snorted coldly and waved his hand. A cold murderous intent flashed across Tang En's face, It doesn't matter, I'm afraid they won't dare to show up...
