Ultimate Assassin System

2015-04-16

In the evening, the capital city. ∈∽, road, carriage.

"Young Master, they've withdrawn."

"Are you sure?"

"Trust me, Young Master, any watcher sees a watch object for half a day Date five beauties, three delicious afternoon teas, two sumptuous dinners, and spend half an hour with two of them, almost every day...they all retreat."

" Oh...are you sure it's only for half an hour?"

"That's not the point, Young Master."

"But it's a slander! A double smear of my personality and physique! "

"I misremembered, I apologize, Young Master."

"Okay, I forgive you, for God's sake..."

twitched his lips, Philip lowered the curtain and sat back in the carriage again, "At the next intersection, find a secluded place for me to get off, and then you drive the carriage to Jenny's baby's house and give her the portrait, by the way. With my apologies, I can't accompany her on a date tonight."

"Okay, but Young Master, you have already made an appointment with Miss Jenny this afternoon... Mrs. Darina Count, Young Master."

"...you have to raise the bar, don't you?"

"No, just tell the truth."

"Get off! Now, immediately—I Gotta get off!"

"Okay, as you wish, Young Master."

...

A moment later, the serious Steward drove the carriage slowly. After leaving slowly, Philip muttered cursing and raised his collar on the side of the road. He looked around alertly, holding a long wooden box, turned around and dodged into the dark alley behind him.

He bowed his head, trotted fast, stopped and turned at the right time...

Although he had a grandfather who could be called a great grandfather. But Philip's strength and skill can only be said to be average. Not to mention the Assassin profession that is not on the table. So right now it's a sneaky dodging move that's 'a clumsy denial resulting in self-exposure'. Can only be judged as clumsy. Fortunately, he is familiar enough with the geographical environment of the capital, so this can't be called sneaking in. So far, it has been relatively smooth...

As Philip, he took the risk himself to do this. It is not normal to wait for obvious petty theft.

In fact, it is.

As I mentioned before, when Philip is serious, he is quite reliable. Of course, there are really not many times like this.

The reason for this. One is because of character, Philip has never been a serious person, and I believe he will not deny this. The second is because there are not many things that can make Philip care, and he can't be serious...

But obviously, there are various signs that Philip is absolutely serious at the moment.

Also at a loss.

In fact, since Tang En successfully assassinated Winslyn not long ago, and then Philip immediately conveyed the news of the attractive spectacle to his grandfather who was still recuperating in the Royal Court Nursing Home, this feeling of confusion and confusion has existed. . Especially when he followed his grandfather's orders and went to the mountains to get the sword. This sentiment even reached Peak...

He was in the middle of the Woodin small on the mountain, and he took down more than his grandfather's sword of fame. Also bring down the mountain for a saber.

A knife that is extremely vulgar in terms of its name and its use - the golden ring knife.

As for the origin of this knife, he had heard, and it was clear that it was given to his grandfather by Tang En when he was in the north. The latter used it to slash through the Temple Federation in the north, severing in two. Afterwards, he also hacked through the real Temple Federation, cut open the magical defense cover on the island's periphery, fled away, and made a lot of noise...

From the above experience, this vulgar sword can be called a vulgar sword. Legendary. But this is not the reason why Philip is confused, he is just a little puzzled, why he sees a note left by his grandfather when he goes to pick up the sword, and asks him to put this big sword that should not be exposed to the outside. And bring it down the mountain?

Philip wondered about this for many days, and wanted to go to the sanatorium to inquire in person, but the accused grandfather didn't want to see him... Of course, this was just an excuse, but it also made the confused Philip vaguely understand what his grandfather meant.

Holding a sword is just a pretense, holding a knife is the real purpose. All he needs to do is hide the knife and don't tell anyone.

Until, at this moment-

Philip's confusion didn't last long. When he entered the royal castle, he met Miksu, who had been waiting for a long time, and with the help of the latter. When he quietly passed the layers of warnings on the periphery of the sanatorium, Philip vaguely understood. After entering the recuperation area, I saw my grandfather Woodin, who was supposed to be resting in bed, but was now sitting in neat clothes and a peaceful expression, as well as the entire Eisoan squad surrounding him, all the doubts and mysteries were solved in an instant...

"Did you bring the knife?" Woodin asked, glancing at the wooden box in Philip's hand, who was standing in a daze. His voice was old and hoarse.

First, he subconsciously raised the wooden box, then Philip took a deep breath, and asked with a little fluke, "Grandfather...what are you doing?"

"Going to complete a deal." Looking at Philip, who realized something and couldn't hide his panic and worry, Woodin's mouth curled into a faint smile.

He asked eagerly, "What deal? With whom?"

"Of course it's with Little Tang. I exchanged two promises for him with one sword, didn't I make a profit?"

p>

"Winslyn's death..." Philip is not stupid, on the contrary he is very smart, otherwise it is impossible to break into the illustrious name of 'Imperial Capital Flower Wolf' with a good skin.

Woodin was satisfied with the nodded, lightly said with a smile: "Yes, this is one of the promises, just like the deposit in the transaction process, he has paid it, and then I should pay him back. I'm done."

"Why, what, still?"

Woodin glanced at Philip's tightly clenched fists, and shook his head gently: "You should have thought of it. , Philip... made a move to Temple Federation, of course, helped Little Tang get away after assassinating him."

"Damn! Why don't I know this? Deal, deal! This bastard—really Isn't it too early to be unprofitable?!" Gritting his teeth, Philip, who felt betrayal and being exploited instantly filled his heart, like a wild beast whose head was provoked, suddenly raised his head, looked angrily towards Miksu, Luke, Harry and other Eisoan members aside, hissing. growled, "That's what that bastard did to me? To a friend--yes! Let him come to me and I can pay him to kill Bounty. Why bother my grandfather--"

Although Woodin's few words don't make it all clear. But one thing is certain. That is Woodin's frail physical condition. Forcing make a move again will undoubtedly burn the candle of his remaining life. In the end, only death can go!

"Quiet, Philip." He waved his hand to interrupt Philip's continuous questioning. Woodin, who was about to end his life, looked extremely calm, "You should be able to understand. It's not Little Tang's fault. On the contrary, I also I have to thank him for agreeing to my last request as a dying man. Besides, the deal was made by me first. If you can bring your knife down the mountain, you should have seen the note I left there... I planned this early in the morning. Yes."

"But, but..." He waved his arms, tried several times, kept opening and closing his mouth, and finally looked at Woodin's old face that had always been light and cloudless, Philip lowered his head in despair, his voice With full of doubts and resentment: "Why?"

Woodin shook his head slightly: "You know very well, everyone knows it, and I know my own physical condition better than you all person. Philip. I don't have much time to live. In that case, instead of lying on the bed like a dying Old Dog struggling on whilst at death's door. Take your last breath, let's take advantage of this limited time to do something...cough cough..."

After coughing a few times, he thought of something, and Woodin's dry face suddenly rushed to the upper layer of red light, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, showing a cheerful smile, "hehe, Philip, you know, I don't think those fake old worms are happy. It's been a long time. But because of my status, I couldn't fight against them in my life. Now I have the opportunity to stab them, I'm very happy, really happy, you should be happy for me too. "

Hearing this, Philip raised his head in a daze, and met his grandfather's peaceful gaze with a smile. After a while, the corners of his mouth curved into a smile, a wry smile, the kind that was uglier than crying...

Well, in this situation, Rao is Philip, who has always been known for being heartless and less disciplined, and he is also impossible happy. But in addition to deep helplessness, Philip also knew very well that he couldn't do anything at all.

Dissuade? Don't make trouble, he knows his grandfather's character very well. When he really decides what to do, it's like he fights with a sword and is unstoppable...

The silence is half, Philip is deeply exhaled, and he calms down a little bit. , said dryly: "What's the specific plan?"

Woodin replied with a smile: "It's very simple, we set off overnight to reach the outskirts of the Temple Federation island, find a location around the lake shore, stab a knife, and return." Well, this plan is no longer simple, but rudimentary! But in the eyes of realm like Woodin and the others, everything is as simple as that...

"But the capital is under martial law recently, and there is a curfew at night..." After a while, Philip heard the words and frowned subconsciously, Turning to see Miksu, Luke and the others in night clothes standing beside him, he suddenly shook his head and said, "Okay, I asked a stupid question."

It's really stupid, there is Eisoan These elite professionals are here, and it is not as difficult as imagined to leave the capital quietly, even if the martial law here is severe...

Sure enough, Harry took over the words with a smile: "Boss After we left, in the past few days, we were not idle either, we have been observing the terrain here... By the way, do you remember Bowens and Bernie? The two Captains who guarded the dragoons. Their regular patrols of the capital, We are familiar with defense deployment and so on. We found them, researched and formulated a route plan together... Believe me, it is certainly impossible for us to break into the capital, but it is not difficult to get out of here."

This is the so-called day and night defense, the truth is that it is difficult to prevent thieves.

"Then how to get back quickly?" Philip, who had regained his composure, quickly grasped the key point of the plan and looked towards Woodin, "Grandfather, after you make a move, I believe that even with a knife, some people will immediately suspect to you."

"Spatial Teleportation." Woodin casually waved, "I have an old friend who is Spatial Magician, and he'll help us out with this."

This It's just a network of contacts. At Woodin's level, the Space Magician friends you make will naturally not be general. Taking these people to teleport a short distance is obviously not a major event.

And everything was considered carefully, even Philip, who wanted to find an excuse to disagree with Woodin's trip, had no choice but to shut up. However,

"Wait!" Suddenly realizing something, Philip raised his head in surprise, "Tomorrow...isn't that when Prince Eldest will be crowned? That guy, is he really going to assassinate him at the celebration?"

"I don't know that either." Woodin shook his head, "According to my previous agreement with Little Tang, if he is confident that he can assassinate in the dark, it means that he can do it alone, successfully rescue and escape. Leave Temple Federation. In that case, I don't need to make a move. But so far, Temple Federation has not heard any news, which shows that there is a problem with his original assassination plan."

paused, continued, "But it's okay, I know tomorrow is the deadline for Little Tang to start. After tomorrow, the Horde army stationed on the north bank of the Rhineau River will attack. By then, Savian's captive value will be reduced. , there is no guarantee that Temple Federation will not take her breath away. So no matter what the situation is, Little Tang will definitely do it tomorrow."

Philip frowned: "What if he doesn't do it? What if there is still no movement in the celebration tomorrow? "

Spreading his hands, "Then we'll be back."

Woodin answered succinctly, but when Philip heard the words, he was suddenly confused. For a time, he didn't know what to expect from Tang. If En does it well, I hope he doesn't do it...

If he does, Woodin must follow Tang En to escape. In that case, Woodin's old life will basically be explained there. And if you don't do it, it means that the fate of Tang En and Savian is slim...

A family and a friendship. Dilemma, how to choose?

In fact, Philip has no chance to struggle with his choice now. Looking up at the sky, the moon is bright and the stars are thin, Woodin slowly got up and said: "It's getting late, let's go..."
