Chapter 563 The Darkness of Day I

Under the skillful driving of Lauder, the carriage turned left and right, and quickly entered a small alley near the civilian area.

This alley, like other alleys in the civilian area, is unusually deep. There is a door every other section on both sides of the alley. Most of them are dilapidated, and a few intact ones are also dirty.

And half of them were sealed from the inside.

Obviously, the locals are more aware of what these wickets represent.

Both ends of the alley can be freely entered and exited, and some people hunched over, standing in the shadows and watching the people passing by.

When he saw the carriage driven by Lauder, a middle-aged man with an unshaven beard walked over.

He stood in front of the carriage and held out his hand.

"Poor, have pity on me!"

The sound of begging was heard.

However, what he got in return was a vicious whip from Lauder.

Snapped!

A bloody welt appeared on the middle-aged man's body, and the man whimpered in pain and dodged into the shadows to one side, before disappearing quickly.

"My lord, you are a 'dark boy'!"

Lauder lowered his voice and said into the car.

A real beggar would never dare to stop in front of the carriage, at most, he would just stand on one side.

This kind of beggar standing in front of the carriage openly.

"≡ Don't ask, naturally there is a problem.

"The other party is more careful than we imagined... Ike will see you next!"

Dean's voice came from inside the carriage, and after a little hesitation, he continued.

And when Dean's voice fell, the slightly pale Ike stumbled out of the carriage and was escorted by Lauder. Go somewhere in the alley.

Lauder carefully hid his face behind Ike.

And Dean stepped into the shadows immediately.

Follow around the two.

The two subordinates were willing to serve as bait. Dean naturally wanted to ensure the safety of the two of them.

Likewise, Dean hoped the plan would go well.

Therefore, when three or five figures with malicious intentions appeared, he unceremoniously shot——

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

The crossbow arrows caused bursts of piercing sound, and those figures fell to the ground one after another.

After several howls, there was no sound.

"The civilian area seems even more chaotic than I remember..."

Dean scanned the corpses and couldn't help frowning.

In the civilian area of ​​the emerald capital in his memory, the security is not very good. But there is absolutely no attack in broad daylight like it is now.

Just by identifying the clothes, Dean can be sure that the person he killed just now definitely did not come for Ike.

It's just blocking the way.

"This new thieves' union has completely muddied the water!"

Frowning, Dean looked at a few people walking not far away. These people carried sacks in their hands and quickly disposed of the corpses.

Even, one of them bowed to Dean.

Obviously, this is a professional body collector.

But in just two to three months. Professional corpse collectors appeared, even. Change the 'rules' of the civilian area again.

Dean was naturally curious about the 'thieves' union' he was about to visit.

Ike and Lauder kept walking.

Dean followed behind, and soon arrived at the destination——

A small building located in an alley.

With a height of two and a half floors, the third floor is a semi-open terrace. Two people are sitting on chairs on the terrace, seemingly resting and basking in the sun.

However, that vigilant appearance is enough to make people suspicious.

Especially when the time at this moment is only early in the morning, and it is not the most beautiful time of the sun, even more so.

Condescending, the two easily spotted Ike and Lauder.

However, when they saw Ike being escorted over, the two pulled the bell beside them with a very relaxed attitude, and greeted Lauder.

"Hey, Morgan!"

"Good luck!"

Two voices sounded one after the other.

"um, yes!"

Lauder, on the other hand, spoke vaguely, and then walked to the door at a faster pace.

There were already footsteps coming from behind the door.

About five seconds later, the wooden board above the gate was pulled away, revealing a pair of cloudy eyes.

After seeing Ike, these cloudy eyes brightened obviously.

However, the next moment, it returned to normal.

Squeak!

The door opened, revealing the appearance of the owner of these eyes, tall and thin, and luxurious clothes that absolutely do not match the civilian areas, but his face is pale and cold.

"Morgan did a good job...you are..."

While the other party was speaking in a low tone, Dean flashed in front of him.

Immediately, the other party was about to exclaim.

Dean's palm blocked the opponent's mouth, and a layer of frost covered the opponent in an instant.

Ike and Lauder walked into the room quickly, and the latter quickly closed the door. Then, he pulled out a repeating crossbow from his waist and threw it to Ike, while holding the other repeating crossbow in his hand .

"Stay here!"

Dean ordered two subordinates.

Then, walk in slowly.

"who!"

Dean, who did not hide at all, was immediately discovered by the two guards guarding the corridor.

The two guards immediately drew their swords and rushed forward.

Dean's footsteps did not stop because of the guard's pounce. After the extremely cold air in his hand froze the clear water in the kettle around his waist, the ice edges rushed towards the guard with the sound of crossbow arrows.

Poof, poof!

After two soft bangs, the guard hit by the ice edge turned into an ice sculpture in the next moment.

And that's just the beginning.

The bandits in the small building, who were startled by the shouting, rushed out one after another.

And the ice edge in Dean's hand was popped out again and again.

Soon, more than a dozen ice sculptures blocked all the relatively wide corridors and halls in the small building.

Snapped!

Dean's fist. Without hesitation, he hit the ice sculpture in front of him.

immediately. With the inner body. The ice sculpture was reduced to pieces.

Similarly, a channel was opened for Dean.

He walked towards the second floor.

When Dean's boots had just set foot on the second floor of the stairs, there was a faint sound of wind, just like the breeze in a summer evening, giving people a slightly drunk and sweet feeling.

The speed of the dagger is extremely fast.

When the slight sound of wind appeared, the dagger had already reached Dean's neck.

Dean looked down.

On the blade of the dagger, which was shining coldly, was covered with a layer of blue liquid, with a slightly drunken and sweet smell. It's from here.

Then, the dagger pierced Dean's throat without hindrance.

However, there was no blood splatter.

The tip of the dagger pierced Dean's throat, making a sound like metal clashing——

Ding!

A cluster of sparks burst out there.

Moreover, a very special force was transmitted from the dagger back to the dagger owner's body.

puff!

Spitting out a mouthful of blood, the opponent collapsed to the ground without making a sound.

Dean stepped over the opponent's body and continued upward.

According to the results of his torture. There should be two 'stalkers' and one 'shadow dancer' here, as well as ten to twenty subordinates.

According to the comparison of knight level. The Great Knight corresponds to the 'Stalker', and the Silver Knight corresponds to the 'Shadow Dancer'.

After throwing away the 'Stalker' who was frozen into an ice sculpture at the door and the 'Stalker' who was shocked to death in front of him, there should be a 'Shadow Dancer'.

Just like the definition of a 'sharp shooter'.

The talents called 'Stalker' and 'Shadow Dancer' are all linked to some behaviors and abilities of thieves and assassins.

Just like the 'shadow dancer' in front of me.

The opponent really turned into a shadow and blended into the surroundings.

If it weren't for being able to detect any abnormal vibrations, it would still take a lot of effort for Dean to find the other party.

But now?

Dean raised his arm and pressed his palm directly against the wall on the second floor.

Immediately, crystal clear frost covered the front wall.

Even the shadow in the corner was 'frozen'!

"Lauder look for the ledger here - they should have a stub of the mission!"

Dean slowly approached the 'frozen' shadow, and at the same time, ordered his subordinates.

"Yes, my lord!"

Lauder's clear voice came from downstairs.

But Dean's footsteps stopped before the shadow.

"This kind of camouflage is not clever at all. For a living who can bring more information, I didn't kill myself!"

Dean stood there and said slowly.

However, the shadow seemed to be 'frozen', motionless.

Dean raised his arms expressionlessly, and the extremely cold air on his palms became more and more intense.

Suddenly, the previously motionless shadow jumped out of the frost like a rabbit, and appeared in front of Dean as a figure.

However, the frost and trembling posture of the other party's whole body, it is obvious that they are not safe and sound under the previous freezing.

"See, I have met Your Excellency Zelgang... I think we have some misunderstandings!"

The figure whose voice was trembling because of the cold tried his best to speak clearly.

"Misunderstanding? I think so, so I really want to hear your explanation!"

Dean nodded with a smile, but the chill in his palm did not weaken in the slightest.

"Of course, of course!"

Feeling the biting cold, the figure nodded repeatedly.

"What kind of organization are you?"

Dean asked.

"We are a force united by some small organizations!"

The other party answered honestly.

"What about the core?"

Dean asked.

Regarding the structure of this organization, he already had some information from the previous torture, and he was more interested in the composition of the other party's core.

This is something that the 'stalker' did not know.

However, Dean believed that the 'Shadow Dancer' in front of him absolutely knew.

After all, with the strength of silver level, in any organization, one can serve as a senior executive.

"The core, the core is...the Salvation Society!"

The other party hesitated, but when Dean's cold palm began to approach, such hesitation became extremely straightforward.

Named an organization that impressed Dean.
