Several subordinates also saw the incredible scene just now. They looked at each other, and a few seconds later, a storm warrior finally shouted: "Assassin!"

In a blink of an eye, they pulled out their weapons and surrounded the rocks. Ash Rufate stood there without moving, watching his subordinates searching for the rocks. Of course, the final result was completely expected - after spending more than half a day, his subordinates found nothing. The assassin seemed to have disappeared.

It's really interesting. Ashu Rufate whispered in his heart. The best hidden art he has ever seen is the Semu clan. But the Semu clan is not so much a acquired exercise as a gift. The ability of the body to change color with the environment can make people envious and jealous. Even if it comes from another world, the magical armor made in an incredible way, its hiding is not as good as the talent of the Semu clan. The Rat Man clan does not have this ability. With the physical conditions of the Rat Man, it can be said to be a great thing to be able to master such a subtle hidden art. Ashu Rufate now understands why the black-clad assassin is so afraid.

"Don't worry about him, let's go back." Ashu Rufate ordered.

"Well, this assassin doesn't look like he's here to assassinate." Carrie said in his mind.

"I feel the same way. On the one hand, I don't feel the murderous intention, and on the other hand, this time and place are not a good opportunity to assassinate." Ash Rufate replied. "If it's assassination, I will choose a more appropriate time and a more suitable place. I think he should be here to follow."

"That's right, it seems that some people intent have noticed the problem... Well, since they are here to follow us, this means that his goal is still a life-long prolonging potion."

If you are asking about the source of the magic stone, it should not be targeted at Ash Rufate himself, but to inquire from tribe members with a wider goal. Because the magic stone cannot be transformed by Ash Rufate.

"Have the life-extending potion been spread? It's faster than expected." Ashu Rufate said in his mind.

"I'm afraid yes. I believe the Grey Prophets have also played a good role in fueling the fire." Carrie replied. He was not worried about this matter at all, because it was also a good thing for the Grey Prophets to benefit greatly and pay almost zero. With the demonstration effect of the Grey Prophets, those longevity-prolonging potions should have been widely accepted by the rat world, and many people are working hard to find the source of the potions.

If this is the case, then the sale of the potion should be very smooth.

It must be said that after witnessing the black-clothed assassin, Ashu Rufate began to think that Carrie's previous arrangement made sense. If a large amount of finished potion was made, it would be likely to be stolen and robbed - ordinary rat people might not be able to withstand the invasion of the black-clothed assassin. If guards were added, it would be equivalent to giving outsiders the opportunity to infiltrate and buy. Ashu Rufate did not feel that all his subordinates could have a unchanging loyalty to him.

From this point of view, teaching Shaka the secret technique of alchemy is a better choice.

"After that, I met the black-clothed assassin this time... Well, master, I think it's better for you to hire them earlier. What's the point, if you want to prepare for the war, then early spy and reconnaissance are essential." Carrie said.

Now, Ashrufate is very clear about the details of the last time the Rat Man army was wiped out. From the perspective of a general, the Rat Man's failure is unavoidable. Due to insufficient preparation in advance, he failed to understand the details of the dwarves' arrangement, military power, equipment, fortifications, etc., and just simply planned to rely on the advantage of quantity to directly destroy the dwarves' defense with brute force. The problem is that the dwarves' fortifications are very strong, their firepower is also very powerful and reasonable. Therefore, the final result is that the dwarves' position is severe but they cannot capture the dwarves' position, and they have to retreat and reorganize temporarily.

Then the worst happened, and the greens rushed over at this critical moment. Although the greens were originally here to attack the dwarves, as everyone knew, the greens were always happy when fighting and didn't care about who the opponent was. Since the Ratman army was in front of them, they didn't mind fighting more.

If the failure is attributed to what is the reason for this failure, Ashu Rufate can be determined to be because he does not understand the enemy situation, does not understand the dwarfs, and does not understand the situation of the green skin. If he had not chosen such an absolutely wrong time, no matter what the final result of the battle, at least the main force of the Ratman Army could safely withdraw to the underground world, rather than being wiped out by the entire army.

The Rat Man temporarily withdrew, which means that the green skin and the dwarf should be fighting on the ground now... I don’t know what the specific situation is.

"Come Shaka for me." Ashu Rufate ordered a follower beside him.

A little while later, the brown fur rat man appeared next to Ashu Rufat.

"Master...Master, you call me?"

"Shaka, I want to go and make a deal with the Essin clan." Ashrufate said. "The faster the better."

Ashu Rufate's words did not arouse Shaka's curiosity, and it is common for a rat lord to find the black-clad assassin.

"Master, Essin Clan...you are afraid you will go to their territory by yourself." Shaka said with some silence. "...danger...danger...very dangerous..."

"How can I contact those black-clad assassins?" Ashu Rufat ignored Shaka's words and asked.

"You must...send an envoy... arrange a meeting..." Shaka said with some fear. It can be seen that he was afraid. Before, Ashu Rufate left many things for him to deal with, so Shaka was afraid that Ashu Rufate would let him take on the mission of this envoy.

He stuttered. The process of finding the black-clad assassins is a little more troublesome than an ordinary transaction. First, send an envoy to the call and agree on the time and place of the two parties to meet. Then at that specific time and place, the customer will meet the assassins and entrust tasks. It must be noted that this meeting is likely to turn into an assassin - if someone pays to kill the customer.

"What should I pay attention to?" Ashu Rufat asked. Although he was very confident in his power, he could not take these mysterious assassins lightly. After all, he was not an immortal body.

"Master...Master, please remember that you must never turn your back to them... At least many people should be brought with you when you meet with the Assassin in Black... You must bring at least four people, pay attention to the front, back, left, right and above respectively. You must wear armor... and bring antidote..." Shaka repeatedly emphasized some of the conventional knowledge of dealing with the Essin clan without getting tired of it. "You must be very careful all the way... You must not relax even if you return here. Because the Assassin in Black is likely to follow you all the way."

They had followed me. Ashu Rufate thought to himself, but he did not show an impatient look.

"Very good, Shaka... Please arrange an envoy for me to go to the Essin clan and make an appointment with them at a suitable time and place. The location should not be too far from here, the faster the time, the better."

The brown fur rat man obviously breathed a sigh of relief. The thing he feared the most did not happen. He now only needed to arrange people, instead of meeting the terrible assassins himself.

"Okay...Master, I'll do it right away!"

...

The cold wind blew gently, causing a burst of roar on the deep and dark tunnels in the distance.

In this abandoned underground space of Ashurufat Station, this was once a mine vein, but now the mineral has been excavated and has become a huge abandoned space underground, with no signs of activity.

It must be noted that rats live in the underground world, but they are not at risk of suffocation. This is because they have a talented instinct that can detect the flow of air. When they dig the passage, they can always avoid the completely closed and air stagnant place. This is exactly the case with this place. Although the space here is large enough to be expanded into an underground city, the dead air here is not suitable for the breathing of a large number of creatures.

The Essin clan really chose a good place. Ash Rufate thought in his mind. Four selected subordinates were on standby by his side. As Shaka suggested, the five people monitored the front, back, left, right and top of their heads respectively.

A chaotic sound came from a distance, sounding like a group of bats flying by. Although all four subordinates of Ashrufate were elite storm warriors, their courage was not much. This sound made them all cautious and hold their breath.

Almost, the messenger of the Essin clan should have arrived.

"Master, to your left." Carrie reminded in her mind.

Ashu Rufate looked at Carrie's instructions and saw a darkness ahead. He stared at the darkness. His subordinates also noticed Ashu Rufate's abnormality. Almost all the rat people's eyes widened because they saw that the black shadow was also staring at him, with red eyes as if burning coal in the darkness.

In the blink of an eye, the darkness seemed to come alive. Then, they noticed that it was a rat man in black.

The dark figure flashed in an instant, escaped from the surroundings, and floated towards the place where Ashu Rufate was like a ghost. Except for Ashu Rufate, all the rats pulled out their weapons.

"Look at where you should see!" Ashu Rufate whispered. This voice reminded his subordinates of their original responsibilities, and they all looked back at the direction they were originally responsible for. Now, Ashu Rufate could see the Assassin who was wrapped in black all over his body gradually approaching, with each step being smooth and silent. The darkness lingered tightly around the assassin like a living creature.

"Captain Ashrufat," he heard the assassin say. "Do you have any mission to entrust our Essin clan?"

"Yes." Ashu Rufat looked at the assassin in front of him. With a sense of intuition, he thought the assassin was not going to take action. Even if it was an carefully arranged ambush, he would not be the one who took action. "I need the help of the Essin clan."

“What kind of help?”
