Section 5 Assassination

Assassination in the fifth quarter

"Assassinate the vampire queen?" More than one person gasped.

What kind of power vampires have, people here probably have a concept. It is simply delusional to have a few people to assassinate the queen of vampires.

"I will first explain to you, that is, the vampire queen, Qin Xin, does not have the outstanding combat power of her subordinates."

"How do you know? You have fought with her?"

"No need to fight, just a normal head can be inferred. First, no matter where Queen Qinxin goes, she always follows her personal guard, the vampire Demonic. Apart from her, no matter how she is, she has no habit of carrying guards in every day. Secondly, according to reliable evidence, the Queen has no habit of carrying weapons, except for a symbolic long dagger, she is unarmed. Even that dagger has never been pulled out, and she often forgets it.

Carry. Third, we learned from various channels that there has never been a record of Queen Qinxin using weapons, nor is there a record of her direct attack on anyone she fought with. Finally, we collected news from the queen's maids, that is, the queen relies heavily on magic and servants in daily life and rarely takes action. Based on the above, I can judge that although the queen has powerful magic power, in a short-term battle, as long as she is not given the opportunity to use magic, she should be vulnerable."

"Didn't you just mentioned the bodyguard? With that personal bodyguard here, what does it matter if she is strong or not?"

"That's why I just called everyone today. The vampires suffered heavy losses in the previous war. In just a few days, Sir Demon has left the Queen and served as the frontline commander. He is indeed strong enough, but I must say that Qin Xin's decision was a little late. Nothing can save Kalean's defeat now. But if Qin Xin died earlier, it would reduce the coalition's casualties."

"Maybe there is really an opportunity to assassinate, but how do we leave the academy?"

"You don't need to leave the academy. Remember that special seat on the arena? It's actually a seat for Queen Qinxin. And Qinxin has the habit of watching gladiator performances every once in a while."

"But there is magic protection there. And you said that even if the queen is not good at hand-to-hand combat, she can still use magic."

"So we have to talk about the point, I have a magic-breaking scroll."

This answer is shocking. The Demon Breaking Scroll is the nemesis of magic and a weapon of war. Using this thing on the battlefield can invalidate any magic and make those arrogant magicians stare at me in a short period of time. However, the price of this thing is indeed a bit outrageous. The price of a Demon Breaking Scroll is enough to recruit five teams of militias or pay a whole team of knights for the whole year. The worst thing is, the Demon Breaking Scroll is a disposable item.

"As for other things, I have made comprehensive preparations. Our retreat route has been set and we can withdraw from the city in time and meet with the large army. As for everyone's remuneration, the coalition command will not be stingy. The Kingdom of Ryan will give a lot of rewards. On behalf of the king, I promise that you can all become lords of the Kingdom of Ryan and obtain corresponding territorial and hereditary privileges..."

"I won't participate, thank you." Scar pushed away the chair and stood up.

"Is the risk too great? It's really dangerous, but remember that even if we do nothing, we will die sooner or later. It's better to take the risk of surviving!"

"It has nothing to do with the risk." Scar walked out the door. "It's just that I don't want to go."

Reis looked at Scar's back and a burst of confusion appeared on his eyebrows.

A few days later, at dawn, Reth knocked on Scar's door.

Scar was there, naked upper body, exerting the upper limbs. Sweat oozed out from him, giving him a shiny surface of his skin. Reis realized that this person's body seemed to be composed entirely of muscles, shuttlecocks and bones. Although his body did not look particularly thick, the power contained in this body was unquestionable. This was the effect of a long-term good exercise and a self-disciplined life. It was enough to make a woman admire and a man jealous.

"Three days later, Queen Chinxin will visit the arena again. Since there is no second desert leopard, they decided to organize a high-level group battle. We all have to participate. So do you."

Scar stopped and looked at Reth with some confusion.

"I know you don't want to participate in the actions I planned, but I still want to tell you. Because you are still a human after all? From the standpoint of human beings, I hope you can cooperate. After all, this is a war between human beings against vampires."

"That day, we will be divided into two teams and play in the fight. But I have reached a consensus with all the gladiators who play. So that day is the best opportunity for us to do it. There will be no second chance of this kind."

"What the hell do you want to say?!"

"I've said everything I want to say." Reis turned his head and left Scar's room, and took the door with him. As he walked past the door of another room, the people inside winked at him.

"How about it?"

"That guy didn't know what medicine he took. However, he probably wouldn't betray us. After all, he is a human."

Reis walked into his room. After confirming that there was no one around, he gently picked up an inconspicuous small box from the corner of the wall. The box was small and flat and could not hold anything unless it was a few pieces of paper.

He opened the box, took out a few parchment paper inside, and then carefully checked his gold coins with a wealthy mistress. Three scrolls, one is the magic-breaking scroll, used to destroy magic defense and destroy the magic of enemy mages; the other is the messaging scroll, used to convey information in a short time; the last one is the teleporting scroll, which can instantly transfer a person for a considerable distance.

Each scroll is extremely precious and will play a critical and irreplaceable role. Now, these precious scrolls cannot be placed here anymore, but must be hidden on your body just in case.

Reis thought very clearly. Before he entered the arena, he would use the messenger scroll in the lounge and tell the coalition forces outside his actions. This information will be accepted and then provide indelible evidence for his action. At that time, no one will compete with him for this great contribution. In the arena, he will use the magic-breaking scroll to break all the magic that is in the way, and at the same time temporarily deprive Kalean's magicians - including the Queen of Qinxin - of the casting ability. It is said that the black magic is affected by the scroll for a short time, but he does not need much time. Anyway, a group of gladiators will swarm and kill her for a short time without resistance.

After all this, he will lead the gladiators to retreat from the scheduled route. The route is safe and they will retreat smoothly to the block, and run to the predetermined position before the vampires react and tear the group of assassins apart. At that time, the teleportation reel will play the most critical effect and teleport him to the coalition positions outside the city.

Of course, the gladiators probably have to stay and face a group of angry and crazy vampires. But this sacrifice is worth it. Losing the Queen of Pinxin, the vampires have no heads, and Kalean falls only in the evening.

"I'm sorry, brothers." Reis slowly hid the three scrolls, and whispered to himself in a low voice. He didn't mean to tell these lies on purpose, but because the situation was forced, there was no choice. The Kingdom of Ryan had never given Reis such great power to make promises of territory and noble status. The same was true for the coalition forces outside the city. But to get the support of others and let them participate in this dangerous assassination, how can they not have enough benefits?

Reis suddenly discovered a small accident. The box actually contained the fourth scroll, and it was also a teleportation scroll. This was probably because the person in charge made a mistake or used by the people who delivered the supplies, but it was just not useful in the end.

Reis thought for a while and did not move the fourth scroll. He covered the box and put it back on it.

The action is about to happen, and the long-term planning will finally come true. Once Reth completes this task, he will no longer be a knight. He will be promoted to Baron, gain a wealthy territory, possess a castle, and have a bright future from now on. Of course, the Baron is just the beginning, and he, Reth, is undoubtedly not comparable to mediocre people. He will gain more status and wealth. He will receive guests in his magnificent castle. In the years to come, he will tell guests the story of how he took huge risks to kill the vampire queen, and accept their worshipful eyes and praise.

This beautiful longing for the future temporarily made him abandon all the unhappiness in front of him. The matter has been done, and only the last step is left. As long as you kill Queen Qinxin, everything will be done.

Of course, in the eyes of a strategist, the last step is definitely not the most difficult step, but the natural consequence.

Reis lay down on the soft and comfortable cushion, and his fantasy filled his heart with inexplicable excitement. He had to pour a glass of delicious sour plum wine to calm his mood.

"Cheer to Duke Reth." Reth raised his glass and said softly to the scene he imagined. After saying that, he drank it all in one go.

But the tension and excitement quickly dissipated. Reis remembered an unstable factor, the guy named Scar.

Although Reis confidently told others that there was no problem with Scar. In fact, this uneasy factor was still constantly playing in his heart. If Scar reported it to the academy... No, this should not be possible. But why did he refuse to win over such good conditions? If this is cowardly nature, it would not make sense. From a rational perspective, the gladiators also know that they will fight to the death sooner or later. Since that is the case, it would be better to fight to the death! This is logical.

But... the time is only three days, and within three days, I am afraid that this uncertain factor will not be resolved.

Assassination? Framed? These are all stupid behaviors. If you attract attention, you will ruin big things.

After thinking for a long time, Reis finally gave up. He looked at the empty cup in his hand and sighed.
Chapter completed!
