New World Chapter 13 Assassination

  At the same time, outside the valley, in the camp of the guard troops.

  "They actually escaped into that place, and even Mr. Freddy was captured, which is completely different from the original plan." A man paced back and forth in a tent, furious.

  On closer inspection, the man was none other than the one who had met Freddie outside the tavern that night. The two people facing him were dressed in black tights, their heads and faces wrapped in masks, revealing only a pair of icy eyes, standing silently like spears.

  "Mr. Ochi, you've summoned us in the middle of the night, what are your orders?" one of the men in black asked at this time.

  The man who called out to Ochi rubbed his temples in distress: "According to the original plan, I was supposed to take care of silencing them by framing them for the attack on the duchess, but only if Celsia was already dead. But somehow she's managed to get mixed up with those bandits and is hiding out in the mountains - what in the world happened?"

  The man in black said: "If you want to get in, we can take care of killing the guards and make sure no one notices."

  "Ah, no, the key to this matter is not here. It's not difficult to break in and kill those mobs. The problem now is that Silsa is still alive, but we can't take action ourselves. Although I've completely controlled the security team of Plaza, who can guarantee there won't be any loose talkers inside? So unless absolutely necessary, I won't take this risk."

  "No matter what, we have to make Silvia die in an 'accident' so that we can proceed with the next plan."

  "So..." the man in black ventured.

  "So, before we make our move, Silsa must be dead. Then all we have to say is that she was taken by bandits."

  He said, "According to the scouts, it seems that several troublesome people have intervened. They found several corpses of thieves under Mr. Freddy's command at the scene of the attack on the convoy, all of whom were killed with one blow. I think this is why Mr. Freddy lost his hand and was captured."

  "It seems that the other side also has some formidable thief-like characters, which is why they were able to detect something was off and avoid us ahead of time. Ordinary thieves and scouts are no longer enough, so I can only rely on the two of you now."

  The man in black nodded: "I understand what to do now."

  He said, "So, are we going to rescue Mr. Freddy?"

  Achi shook his head: "No, Mr. Freddy was captured, and no one knows what he has revealed to the enemy. So..."

  "By the way," Ochi paused for a moment and said in a low voice, "for safety, kill him together."

  Upon hearing this, the two men in black were taken aback, but their good breeding prevented them from showing any surprise, and they merely fixed their gaze for a brief moment.

  "But with Mr. Freddy's seniority and position in the organization, is this really..."

  "According to regulations, I am now the highest person in charge of this operation and have the right to make any decision. Do as I say!"

  "Understood." The two men stopped arguing. They both slightly bowed and quietly retreated two steps back, disappearing silently into the darkness.

  "Hmm, what an unexpected good opportunity. Mr. Freddy, don't blame me for being ruthless, after all, I learned it from you..."

  It was deep in the night, and the entire valley was shrouded in darkness. Even the moonlight from the sky had a hard time shining through due to the terrain.

  In the canyon at the entrance of the valley, several robbers who were in charge of keeping watch hid in the stone crevices halfway up the mountain. There was a platform left behind by the robber gang before, which was hidden and could not be seen by people, while overlooking the situation at the mouth of the valley.

  "How hateful! Those guys are sleeping soundly without a care, while we're stuck here blowing in the wind." A bandit complained in a low voice, having been blown into a sneeze by the night wind.

  "No choice, who made us so unlucky?" Another bandit said sleepily: "Besides, we're lucky to be alive today. Haven't you heard? The police patrol team chased after us as soon as we left."

  "What a pity! If Big Brother hadn't been killed by that beastman, we wouldn't have to run." A young bandit couldn't help but say.

  "You're an idiot." The first bandit hit him on the head: "The Kavi League's garrison, to put it bluntly, is the reserve troops of Duanjian Pass Fortress. They are not like the trash from other territories. They are well-trained, equipped with the best gear, and outnumber us several times over. Even if we had a few more bosses, we wouldn't stand a chance."

  The young bandit said: "However, San Dangjia is too embarrassing, actually fighting with those guys enthusiastically. If it were me, I..."

  "What's going on?" The bandit interrupted him: "Didn't you see the fate of Er Dangjia? That beastman is more powerful than the Mongols, and he alone can take care of all of us."

  An older bandit said: "I think Harlot did a good job. Thanks to him, we can live until now, right?"

  The young bandit said discontentedly: "Can it be that we can only look at the faces of those few people?"

  "Do you think the younger brothers will really submit? But the situation is stronger than people, let's get through this hurdle first." The older bandit sighed.

  Just as several robbers were sighing for the future, suddenly, a night wind swept through the narrow gorge. In the midst of the piercing wind, two black shadows appeared on the undulating rock wall, ghostly passing over the heads of the group of thieves.

  "Huh?" Sensing something was off, the young bandit instinctively lifted his head.

  "What's wrong?" another person asked.

  The young bandit hesitated and said: "I think I saw something running over our heads."

  "What? You must have gotten dizzy from the climb. We're halfway up the mountain, just watch your step." a bandit said gruffly.

  "Hmm... I guess I must have been mistaken." The young bandit scratched his head in embarrassment and stopped suspecting.

  Not long after

  In a quiet mountain valley, two black shadows emerged silently from the darkness, who were the mysterious black-clad men sent by Ochi.

  They moved stealthily, as if they had completely merged into the darkness. Their movements were silent and unnoticed by the sleeping crowd around them. The two of them searched for a while but didn't find their target, so one of them shifted his gaze to the two wooden houses not far away.

  With a nod to his companion, the two of them slightly bowed their heads and swiftly passed through the people lying scattered on the ground like weightless ghosts, heading towards the two wooden houses.

  However, the two of them, who had absolute confidence in their own abilities, did not notice that as they passed over a pile of dying bonfires, the remaining sparks flickered slightly due to the gentle breeze stirred up by their passing.

  At the same time, in a clump of black grass not far from the bonfire, two bright spots, one yellow and one blue, suddenly lit up.

  They crept quietly up to a wooden house and listened for a moment, immediately hearing the faint but unmistakably female sound of breathing coming from inside.

  A gleam of joy flashed in the eyes of the two, and they crept along the wall to the window. The wooden house in the valley was very simple, with only one empty frame for a window. The two effortlessly floated through the window frame with a flip, without making a single sound throughout the process.

  The wooden house was pitch black, but the two of them found Xier Sa, who was wrapped in a blanket and sleeping soundly at one corner of the house, almost effortlessly. They walked silently to the side of the sleeping princess, and one of them flicked their wrist, causing a jet-black dagger that had been specially processed to prevent reflection to slide out from their sleeve.

  He crouched down and aimed the dagger at Xier's heart.

  From entering the valley to finding their target, these two people only spent a few short minutes, and in between actions completely erased their existence like ghosts. The people sleeping outside the wooden house didn't even notice one person. It's likely that everyone will only discover Xier Sa's unnatural death until the next morning.

  Such skills are certainly not comparable to those of ordinary thieves, no wonder Ochi has increased trust in them.

  However, because things were going too smoothly, both of them forgot what Ochi had reminded them: the other side also has a very formidable thief-like character...

  Just as the man was about to stab Xier Sha in the heart, a curved knife suddenly emerged from the darkness behind him, its blade curving around his neck and pulling back sharply.

  This is really too strange, with the two people's skills, they didn't notice anyone behind them at all. However, they weren't just famous for nothing, and in an instant, that person also reacted, only to see his entire body following the curved knife's trajectory, spinning around, although a large wound was cut on his neck, but he avoided being beheaded.

  At the same time, his companion beside him had a knife in hand and stabbed it fiercely into the dark center where the curved knife was pointing.

  With a loud metallic crash, a spark burst out in the darkness. And it was by this fleeting weak light that the two saw their attacker.

  A catwoman with an all-white body!

  Immediately afterwards, the three of them were entangled in an instant, and a series of dense sword clashes sounded in the darkness. Because both sides were too fast, they couldn't see anyone, only from the occasional sparks that lit up, saw a few swift and rapid shadows flying by.

  At this time, if Raymond and others outside didn't realize it, they would be deaf. Suddenly, a loud crash was heard, the wall of the wooden house on one side shattered, and a torch flew in with a whirring sound. Rutz swung his sword at the back of a black-clothed man.

  As the loud noise woke Xier up, she opened her eyes to find several more people in the room, including the intimidating Rudz. She couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise.

  At once, the whole valley was awakened.

  "Rudz, don't interfere! These two are mine!" Bastard shouted while swinging his curved sword to deflect the dense and rapid attacks from the two men.

  "You're really too immature now, it's not the time to play!" Rutz grunted, and with a swift motion, he swung his sword in a wide arc towards the two of them.

  "Cut, instructing people. When I found them, you were still sleeping." Amidst the opponent's dense attacks, Basute somehow had the leisure to make a face at Lutz.

  Taking a deep breath with her, the curved knife in his hand suddenly accelerated: "Alright, otherwise Master Shao will scold me again."

  The catwoman's attack suddenly accelerated again, and the two men were somewhat overwhelmed by their joint efforts. They were greatly shocked. At this time, the two had already made it clear that the task of assassinating Xier Sa was impossible to complete.

  However, their training did not go to waste. Since assassinating Xier was hopeless, at least another target... ****First update for today, please vote and collect~~
