Chapter 402 The Night Battle Begins

Everyone found an open space to camp in the woods far away from the lake.

Staying away from the lake is to avoid unnecessary dangers. After all, whether it is large beasts, monsters, or humanoid creatures living in the eternal wasteland, they will fetch water by the lake. Especially at night, the lake will definitely not be calm. Everyone They are not the kind of people who would look for trouble just for the beauty of the moonlit lake.

What's more, the Mask of Dark Night is still around.

This is something Naomi can be sure of. She has detected traces of the assassins of the Night Mask many times, and there are not many of them.

Obviously, the opponent is preparing to find a suitable moment to kill with one blow.

Tang Sen was willing to give the other party this opportunity to prevent the other party from delaying taking action and delaying the matter for too long, thus slowing down his progress in exploring the ruins.

So, after eating a sumptuous dinner, everyone entered the tent early, even Naomi was no exception.

Soon, Baan's snoring echoed in the temporary camp.

At this time, in the shadows outside the camp, two figures slowly turned from virtual to real.

"It's a trap."

The person who spoke was a thin woman. She was wearing expensive and luxurious-looking clothes. Her long black jade-like hair was draped over her shoulders, reflecting her purple eyes, red eye sockets, and high cheekbones.

This is a pale, queen-like predator.

"The snoring was fake, so fake," she said. "They were waiting for our attack."

"This is normal," another person responded.

This man looks to be a semi-drow, his hair is as pure white as a drow elf, and his body is slender and strong, but there is no doubt that people familiar with vampires can tell from some of his features that this is a A powerful vampire.

The Malevolent Baroness and the Shadow Duke from Mask of the Night.

One is the controller of the Assassin Division and Naomi Haney's former boss, and the other is in charge of the Night Mask's theft division.

"You have been assassinating Naomi Hanney for a long time. She has long been familiar with our style." The Shadow Duke said in a hoarse voice: "The best way is to delay it until their patience is exhausted and their flaws are exposed. ——It’s impossible for them to not rest forever, right?”

"They can rest during the day." The Evil Baroness said: "Naomi knows very well that we cannot appear in the sun during the day."

"Besides, we don't have that much time." She said: "The leader originally wanted to come in person, but he was in trouble, and the bounty——"

She paused, with a very irritated look on her face: "Damn it, the bounty is rising every day."

"At the beginning, I was still thinking about who was so naive and bold, and wanted to reward me with a mere thousand gold coins. But now, no one knows how much the reward will increase. Now, everyone in the Falling Star Sea is paying attention to this There is a reward, and the reward for you and me is already as high as more than 30,000 gold coins."

"That's why we are here." The Shadow Duke said: "Let the person with the bounty disappear before things get out of hand."

"Miss Hanni made a fortune." The vicious Baroness gritted her teeth: "That wealth should have been in my hands, but she wasted it on the bounty house. Even if she is killed, the money will not be returned. "

"We will earn it back in other ways." The Shadow Duke squinted his eyes and said: "I heard that Naomi was once the most beautiful one you had, and you were planning to use her as a tool to plot against a certain big shot. .”

"Then she discovered the secret of the Vampire Clan." The Vicious Baroness didn't want to say much about this matter: "If we start before dawn, they will already be in dire straits by then, and they must not have imagined that we would dare to stick to such a limit of time."

"You are attracting her from the front, and I will be waiting for her in the shadow plane." The Duke of Shadow stroked the dagger at his waist: "This will definitely give her a big surprise."

"As for the other two spellcasters and one dwarf warrior, the manpower we brought this time should be enough to deal with them."

Baan's snoring lasted only half an hour and then disappeared.

It wasn't that he realized his poor acting skills, but because it was too noisy, Naomi had to stop him to prevent herself from hearing what was going on around her.

The night passed extremely long, and everyone kept paying close attention to everything around them, waiting for a possible attack, but the attack never came.

In the second half of the night, Cui Xi's yawn could already be heard. She was so excited in the first half of the night that she was mentally exhausted.

Tang Sen was no different. He was used to staying up late. Even now, he still had the leisure to continue studying magic.

Until dawn was approaching, when everyone thought there would be no attack today, Naomi's voice suddenly sounded in the camp.

"They're coming!"

Then there was a muffled groan and the sound of a throat being cut from Cui Xi's tent.

Cui Xi was awakened in an instant, and looked sleepily at a place close at hand. A man in black emerged. The dagger in his hand was one step away from her, but life was already passing by quickly, and blood even splashed onto Cui Xi's face. face.

"Stay vigilant, mage, I hope you have prepared today's spell slot." Naomi's voice sounded in the void, and the next moment, she had gone away quietly.

The battle between the assassins was not fierce, and even ordinary people could not see the clues. Cuixi quickly got out of the tent and only saw assassins in the temporary camp being pulled out from the shadows one after another. Without exception, their throats were cut directly.

Then, she heard a banging sound from inside Baan's tent, and soon Baan dragged an assassin out.

"You're dumbfounded!" His voice was full of pride: "I wear plate armor when I sleep!"

The assassin was no weaker than Baan. Unfortunately, Baan was now an iron can, and the opponent couldn't display any assassination skills at all.

In the jungle, the sound of howling wolves resounded, and along with the rustling sound, dozens of steppenwolves more than two meters tall surrounded the camp.

And among the dense branches and leaves of those trees, there were also harsh sounds and dense sounds of flapping wings, and pairs of red eyes lit up.

That's thousands of vampire bats.

The vampires haven't appeared yet, and the creatures they summoned have already arrived in advance. After leaving more than a dozen corpses, the assassins left the camp in a panic. Instead, they stood among the wolves, wearing A warrior in black robes holding a giant sword.

"What a big battle!"

Baan hit his chest with a hammer, making a strong sound of metal and iron, and shouted:

"Come! Come to your uncle Barn!"
