Chapter 1576 1562. Assassinated
When sailing in the aerosphere in a magic airship, looking up at the starry sky is the most beautiful night view.
The dots of starlight in the bright night sky constitute a gorgeous star map. For ordinary people, the starry sky of Handanar County is no different from that of Bena Province, but for a voyager, the night is necessary. Determine the course direction according to the star map.
The civilians can only enjoy the beautiful night on the deck, while the nobles can sit on the benches on the observation deck on the roof of the ship building. The crew will also provide some free drinks, but if you want to drink high-end drinks, you still need I paid for it myself.
Although the air is very windy, it is not cold this season, and you will not be troubled by any mosquitoes after ascending to the air.
Casual ladies and ladies are all wearing evening gowns that bare their shoulders, some are accompanied by male companions, and some sit down and talk with their girlfriends...
In fact, there are many ladies on the boat deck who made a temporary decision on this trip to Epsom City after learning that Lord Suldak returned home alone. The famous generals of the Ghost Legion can take a fancy to one of them because of the loneliness of the journey. Perhaps this will make this trip very romantic.
But what the ladies and socialites didn't expect was that the magic airship sailed in the air for three days and three nights, and the commander of the West Route Army didn't even step out of the luxurious cabin.
Many people on board even wondered if the commander of the West Route Army had other hobbies, such as playing cards, drinking, and dating...
For a nobleman, this kind of life is simply too boring.
When the nobles talked about Lord Suldak recently, they commented on his lifestyle habits. Most of the nobles preferred that Lord Suldak had some agreement with Marquess Luthor. Due to Hathaway's Existence, this Commander is very careful in this regard.
At night, the sails on the three main masts of the magic airship lowered by a third.
After the speed slows down, the crew can also rest at night, and only a few crew members are required to be on duty on the deck mast.
The shouts of playing cards in the cabin can be heard faintly. The crew room is on the third floor below the deck, and below that is the luggage compartment of the magic airship and the place where supplies are stored.
Compared to the comfort and quietness of the aristocratic area, the civilian area is more lively, and the cabin is full of various smells...
Two sailors dressed as engineers came out of the cabin on the lower third floor. Although their clothes were stained with some engine oil, their faces and hands were very clean, and their beards were even trimmed neatly. The leather boots of the two looked a little out of place with the crew uniform.
Fortunately, it was night, and the two of them walked close to the place with relatively dark light. When they passed the deck, they greeted several crew members, and then entered the noble area through the staff passage.
There are four floating devices on the side of the ship, and the engineer is responsible for checking the operation status of these magical devices.
But after entering the noble area, the two engineers obviously did not go to the floating device, but directly entered the first floor of the ship building.
There were only two nobles in the corridor. After they walked into the cabin with their female companions in their arms, the two engineers took the opportunity to sneak into a general cargo warehouse on the first floor of the ship building. When they came out of the general cargo warehouse again, Transformed into two nobles with long swords on their waists.
Go to the second floor of the ship building, the rooms here are only eligible to live in by nobles with status.
Suldak's room is at the end of the corridor. It is one of the best rooms in the entire magical airship. You can sit in the room and enjoy the most beautiful night view of the airship.
The two went straight to the end of the corridor...
At this time, most of the nobles had gone back to their rooms to rest.
The two stood at the door for a while, seeing no one in the corridor, one of them took out a magic dagger from his leg, and inserted it into the gap in the hatch like cutting tofu.
With a 'click', the metal door bolt was easily cut off by the magic dagger.
The two pushed the door open and entered almost immediately, and then closed the cabin door. The luxurious room was pitch black, and all the curtains were drawn.
The two people smeared into the cabin, and quickly merged into the darkness of the cabin...
All the furnishings in the living room seemed to have not been touched, the long sword was already in his hand, and the breath of magic flowed from his body.
One person guards the door, while the other pushes the door and walks into the bedroom.
The bed looked a little messy, and it looked like a person was lying on it, but couldn't feel any breath.
At this time, the two held their breath almost at the same time, and stopped walking...
In the dark, the two looked at each other, their eyes full of doubts about why he wasn't in the cabin.
Then, without any hesitation, the two turned around and were about to go out...
Next to the closet near the curtains, a door of void appeared silently in the darkness. When Suldak walked out, he even held a candlestick in his hand, and the candle light lit up the bedroom. stand up.
The two who were about to leave were revealed in the candlelight.
The moment he saw Suldak appear, a blazing magical glow flowed from one of them, the set of 'Magic Serpent's Fang' magic pattern structure showed magnificent patterns, and the crimson long sword in his hand lit up A glaring white light wrapped the man and the sword in the white light, turning into a sword light and piercing towards Suldak.
Almost without warning, half of Suldak's foot was still inside the gate of the void, and the sword energy transformed by the constructed swordsman had already cut to his chest.
A silver crusader light shield instantly appeared on Suldak's chest, followed by a four-square blessing shield.
The sword energy pierced the light shield and dissipated instantly. The scattered sword energy smashed the curtains and wooden wardrobe beside Suldak, and there was a sound of metal and iron clanging...
Suldak didn't expect the swordsman to be so decisive. Although he was fully prepared, he still didn't have time to put on a defensive stance.
However, the swordsman shot a little hastily, and this blow failed to pierce the 'sacred shield' on his body.
In the next second, Suldak threw the candlestick out, and then swung the gold shield in the other hand, hitting the swordsman's chest.
There was almost an afterimage on the swordsman's body, showing catkins floating in mid-air, flying away against the shield, while the long sword in his hand cut to Suldak's right arm against the edge of the shield. When the edge passed by, it even splashed a series of sparks.
Just when the swordsman thought that the sword would be able to cut through Suldak's arm, the shield that Suldak swung out disappeared out of thin air. Almost at the same time as it disappeared, the constructed swordsman felt a burst of pain in his chest. In severe pain, his body flew backwards involuntarily.
The impact of the shield made the swordsman stiffen...
The swordsman who rushed over did not help his companion, but while avoiding it with side steps, the magic pattern circle lit up under his feet, and in a short incantation, the phantom shadows of long swords shrouded him like streamers The whole body of Suldak.
At this moment, Suldak felt that he was in a sword array, and was drawn by the murderous aura of the opposite swordsman. His legs seemed to be tied with lead pendants. He couldn't retreat and dodge at all, so he could only raise the shield again.
The afterimages of sword energy pierced the shield, and Suldak felt as if a heavy hammer had struck the golden shield violently.
Where the golden shield couldn't stop, those afterimages of sword energy actually left a series of sword marks on his 'Scheft Stambu' armor, and he felt a slight chill on his face, which was also cut out by the sharp sword energy a wound.
Since he realized some laws of space on the Warsaw plane, Suldak felt that even those evil generals could not hurt him.
This is also the reason why he returned to the magic airship through the gate of the void. He thought he had such confidence, but he didn't expect that his body jumped half a step backwards out of thin air, and he was even blocked by the golden shield, and he was actually injured by the sword energy …
The aura of the constructed swordsman on the opposite side was like a sharp sword mountain.
Without any words to express, Suldak felt that the strength possessed by that swordsman was absolutely not possessed by a Rank 2 powerhouse, because this thrust contained the law of the sword, which made him even stronger in the field of the sword formation. Unable to back and dodge.
According to what Iser and Elder Ambrobi said, he has mastered the 'field' on the Warsaw plane, and his strength is almost equivalent to half a foot stepping into the ranks of the third-rank grandmaster...
And for the shield-holding paladins, it naturally restrains swordsmen among warriors.
As soon as they fought, they were almost stabbed into a screen by this construction swordsman...
The person opposite turned out to be a rank-three great swordsman, and Suldak quickly pulled out the sword of Kuerwen.
The glass window behind him had been shattered by the sharp sword energy, and a big hole appeared behind him. The night wind blew in, and the broken curtains flew with the wind.
The candlestick went out when it fell on the floor of the room, and only the faint light from outside the cabin shone into the room.
The sudden sound of fighting also instantly disturbed the civilians who had not rested on the deck of the magic airship, and some civilians were even scratched by the splintered wood chips and broken glass.
The night watch crew also looked in horror at the place where the noise erupted on the second floor of the ship building.
The sharpness erupting from that great swordsman's body was like a huge sword mountain formed by the accumulation of countless sword qi. The long sword in his hand stabbed again, instantly pulling countless sword qi on the sword mountain towards Suldak. press over...
The golden shield in Suldak's hand immediately formed a thick wall. Countless sword blades slashed against the shield wall, causing gaps in the shield immediately. Sword qi passed by him, and the huge impact pushed him out of the luxurious wall. In the cabin, there were several bloodstains on his face and hands.
If it weren't for this epic shield, Suldak felt that he might be torn to pieces by these fierce sword qi at this moment.
And the great swordsman was also suffering at this time, every time he approached Suldak for half a step, his body seemed to be shackled by a shackle, and he couldn't break free from this invisible **** with his ability.
Just when Suldak was about to lose his hold, an angel phantom appeared behind him. The pure white light wings on the angel's body wrapped Suldak like a cocoon, allowing him to block the sharp blow.
The constructed swordsman in the back who was knocked back by Suldak's shield also took the opportunity to stab Suldak's left leg from the side. Although the long sword in his hand could not be transformed into countless afterimages, the The sword energy is as fast as lightning.
Suldak was completely suppressed by the three-turn great swordsman in front of him, unable to avoid the assassination of this constructed swordsman at all, Suldak only had time to turn sideways...
Jianguang easily broke through the angel's light wings, and then accurately stabbed Suldak's left leg. Jianguang cut off the dagger bandage outside the trouser armor, and left a deep wound on his leg.
Taking advantage of Suldak's distraction, the great sword master's sword mountain pressed Suldak, causing him to fall on the deck of the airship in embarrassment.
Several civilians who had no time to evade were strangled to death by the sharp sword energy, blood splattered all over the deck.
This is the first time Suldak tried to use the domain since he comprehended the domain, but he was forced into danger by the great swordsman opposite. There was an aura of black magic in the cabin, and a death ray shot out from the cabin, just landing on Su. At Erdak's side, the constructed swordsman swiftly avoided.
The death ray drew a deep mark on the deck, and chased after the constructed swordsman.
A low-pitched curse came from the cabin, and there was a drowsy breath in the darkness.
The sound of fighting that erupted here instantly has disturbed the people on the deck and the viewing platform.
Some crew members ran towards this side with weapons in hand.
Two nobles with long swords jumped down from the viewing platform on the top of the ship building, but the two nobles only had the strength of a rank one swordsman, so they couldn't get close to the battlefield here.
Captain Matthew also ran out from the captain's cabin with a group of crew members, all of whom were holding standard repeating crossbows.
A crossbow bolt passed by the great swordsman. Although none of the crossbow arrows hit him, they managed to stop his pursuit.
Even the heavy crossbow on the bow of the ship turned its direction under the control of the crew, aiming at the great swordsman.
The great swordsman was still thinking about making another slash, but he found that many people on the deck had already looked over. Amidst the spurting crossbow arrows, he shouted at the constructed swordsman who was forced back by the death ray :"let's go…"
After speaking, the two of them jumped onto the side of the magic airship without any hesitation, and jumped down from a height of several thousand meters...
All the nobles on the viewing platform of the magic airship and the civilians on the deck exclaimed.
No one thought that their way of escape would be to jump off the airship. At this time, a black figure riding a magic handle flew out of Suldak's cabin. Everyone only saw her face masked. Wearing a mithril mask, the black shadow flew into the night sky, and a huge eyeball followed her and disappeared into the night.
Suldak actually wanted to call Aphrodite back. After all, the other party was a great swordsman, and he was worried that it would be dangerous to chase him out like this.
It's just that he fell down on the deck of the airship, the wound on his left leg was still bleeding, and a faint holy light radiated from his body. Although he didn't receive any treatment, the wound still healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
He struggled to get up from the ground, still holding the golden shield in his hand.
Seeing the assassination of Lord Suldak, Captain Matthew was pale with fright. He led the crew to quickly control the deck of the airship, and drove the civilians on the deck back to the cabin below.
Suldak glanced down at the wound that had stopped bleeding. There was a cut in the trouser armor. It may cost a lot of money to repair it...
He said to the coming Captain Matthew: "The walls of the cabin need to be repaired."
After speaking, he walked to the civilian lying in a pool of blood, seeing that he still had a faint breath, he gathered a ball of holy light on his hand.
