Of the three long swords that were about to stab Han Shuo, one of them split up to deal with Han Shuo's small skeleton. Another direction changed halfway to ward off Han Shuo's arrow bolts, and the remaining one pierced towards Han Shuo.
Han Shuo pushed out with his hands wrapped around Phoebe and sent Phoebe rolling towards Fabian. His right hand clasped tightly onto the handle of the dagger, Han Shuo suddenly rushed out from behind the shattered round table. His magic yuan flowed into the dagger and drew a pale purple bow in thin air, aiming for a long sword that rushed towards him.
A metallic sound rang out along with a dull snort from Han Shuo. His right hand which was holding the dagger was numb again, and the forward momentum of his body came to a halt. He fell subconsciously under the table as the body of the assassin also shook and fell onto the shattered table.
He had used the sword with his right hand, but the impact earlier seemed to freeze his hand through the use of the “Mystical Glacial Spellfire” from Han Shuo's dagger. His longsword suddenly swapped into his left hand and his ice-cold eyes swept over Han Shuo. The longsword pierced forward again and waves of wild battle aura flowed into Han Shuo's body through his chest taking advantage when he was out of balance.
The bone-piercing pain immediately spread throughout Han Shuo's body. When the aura of the dark green battle surged onto Han Shuo's chest, the magical yuan churned furiously and broke it into thousands, tens of thousands of strands, deadly involving battle auras, preventing the aura of battle from spreading to other areas.
Even so, Han Shuo was still spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood and he fell down with shaky steps. The assassin was now full of confidence when he saw that Han Shuo had been filled with the battle aura from his sword. He did not bother to glance at Han Shuo again after seeing him get hit, and directly turned to deal with Phoebe and Fabian, who were on the other side of the room.
Except, there was no way he could realize how durable and powerful Han Shuo's body was after much reformed from magic. Coupled with the amazing effects of the magical yuan, what was originally a fatal blow could not take Han Shuo's life at all.
At the moment when he turned around and was about to leave, Han Shuo suddenly jumped from where he had fallen on the floor like a ghost. A cold light tendril emanated from the dagger in his right hand, suddenly piercing towards the killer's back.
The assassin was a senior knight alright. He did not lose his vigilance, even in a critical moment. He turned his body at that critical and crucial moment and the long sword in his left hand once again sent out a dark green battle aura, blocking Han Shuo's dagger with a clang.
Except, he was defending against Han Shuo's dagger, but not Han Shuo's sniper fire. The arrow bolt on his left arm shot out and sharply pierced through the killer's left eye mercilessly. As he groaned in pain and stretched out his hand to cover his left eye, the dagger in Han Shuo's hand moved and a bloodline floated out from the killer's neck. He fell languidly, but firmly to the ground.
At this moment, Han Shuo's left hand wiped the fresh blood leaking from the corner of his mouth and tightened his grip on the dagger, calmly observing his surroundings.
The small skeleton holding the bone dagger had actually started to fight with one of the assassins. After countless refinements by the magic yuan, the small skeleton was so powerful that it almost deviated a little. The speed of evasion and bone dagger dancing was extremely high.
Even when his body was struck, the inked black skeleton only slightly wavered. The small skeleton would regain its footing every time it stumbled backwards and advanced with another attack, leaving the murderer to death.
On the other hand, the assassin, who had broken the arrow bolt that Han Shuo shot towards him, had already dashed into Phoebe. Fabian was struck by panic and fear and cried out in panic, “Be careful young miss, Bryan help!”
Han Shuo started and with a single glance, knew that it was too late to save Phoebe. He let out a low sigh and was about to command the small skeleton and find an opportunity to sneak in when something beyond his expectations happened.
The eyes of Phoebe, on her face were panicked, calm and aloof. When the dark green light from the murderous sword struck him, when, unbeknownst to anyone, the, a thin and long dagger suddenly appeared in his hand.A milky white aura suddenly came out from the dagger in Phoebe's hand like a lotus flower in bloom. The white-milk fighting aura intertwined with the dazzling sword light, completely engulfing the assassin.
“Ah ——-” Sad lament sounded. When the dazzling milk-white sword light disappeared, it was as if the assassin had been pierced by a thousand sharp weapons. His entire body was pockmarked and blood flowed out of the hundred holes.
Not only was Han Shuo shocked, but even Fabian and the last assassin who faced off against the small skeleton were also stunned.
It was no big deal if Han Shuo and Fabian were shocked, but when the stoppage of the killer's concentration appeared, his left arm was instantly cut off by the small skeleton. He screamed in pain, and Phoebe suddenly threw away the dagger in his hand as he was about to escape. The dagger sank to the waist of the assassin and the final killer scream suddenly made no sound, falling firmly to the floor.
“Young ... young miss, you .. You are a swordswoman?” Fabian's mouth had fallen very open, his tongue tied as he pointed to the cold Phoebe. He stuttered his question.
Swordsman are also divided as knights: Swordsman (pale blue battle aura), swordsman-aura (dark blue battle aura), swordswoman swordsman (pale-green battle aura), swordswoman, senior swordsman (dark green battle aura), swordsman (White fighting aura), great swordmaster (silver battle aura), and divine swordmaster (gold battle aura)
Han Shuo also did not think that Phoebe had always hidden her strength. It seems Fabian doesn't know either. Phoebe was actually a female swordsman at an even higher level than the senior knights. With his strength as a swordsman at his age, it would shock many people if this news leaked out.
“No, without your help, I won't be able to kill all the hit men from ‘Hantu’ Shadows alone. I will be able to defend against them, but I will not be able to prevent them from escaping. Therefore, your help is very helpful to me. I'm so grateful to you! “Phoebe glanced at Han Shuo and spoke seriously.
Phoebe's brows furrowed as she pondered deeply after a while, suddenly looking at Han Shuo strangely. He asked, “Master Bryan, why did I not feel the fighting aura from your body when you just moved? And if I don't look wrong, you're also trained in necromancy. Except, I never knew that a skeletal warrior could have the same fighting abilities as a senior knight. Mister Bryan is truly an amazing person! ”
A sharp woman. Han Shuo glanced at Phoebe and said in an enigmatic tone, “Nona Phoebe has the power of a sword teacher at a very young age. The truly amazing person here is you. Compared to yourself, I'm just a mismatch. ”
“You are too humble,” Phoebe responded to Han Shuo and did not ask further. Turning to look at Fabian who was still shocked and confused, he said softly. “Fabian, do an inventory of the items he brought to us. Bryan saved us this time, so we have to give him a good price. ”
A serious expression appeared on Fabian's previously dumbfounded face after he heard Phoebe's words. He looked at Phoebe strangely and then at Han Shuo, finally lowering his head to count the items on the ground.
“My nephew Phoebe, my nephew Phoebe, are you okay? What was? “A loud cry came from far away at this moment, getting closer to the sound of hurried footsteps.
Phoebe's usually aloof face suddenly showed an expression of hate and disgust. It returned to normal in a second, even with a slight smile on its face. He said harmoniously, “Uncle Grover, I'm fine, thanks for your concern.”
A group of five guards broke down the door with a creepy-looking skinny old man in front. He wore luxurious clothes, first sweeping around the room, assessing the situation, before showing an anxious expression. “I just heard your cry for help and saw from afar that the two warriors at your door were on the ground. I came as soon as I could. Fortunately nothing happened to you, surely your dead father was protecting you. ”
“I'm worrying you, Uncle. However, it was not My dead father who protected Me, but it was this noble warrior who saved your nephew's life. Otherwise, your nephew's life would have long been taken by these assassins. “Phoebe showed an expression that was still left in fear as she pointed to Han Shuo in her explanation.
Han Shuo watched Phoebe and Grover talk with cold eyes and observed everything closely. He formed a bit of understanding in his heart. He also clearly saw hatred and disgust on Phoebe's face earlier.
He discovers that when Grover enters, his attention has been placed entirely on the three assassins in the first room. He only expressed his concern to Phoebe after she assessed the situation. This already explains that the relationship between the two is not as harmonious as it seems on the surface.
“Soldiers thank you! I'll definitely appreciate you well! “Seru Grover, looked at Han Shuo after hearing Phoebe's words. His eyes continuously swept over Han Shuo's body, seemingly wanting to completely measure it.
“Uncle, thank you for your goodwill, but Phoebe would like to personally thank him for saving my life. I'm fine now, Uncle has always worked too hard and tired for the Merchant Guild every day. You should go back and rest early! ”Phoebe spoke seriously and bowed as she spoke to Grover.
“Alright fine. As long as you're okay. I've been investigating the origins of the killers for you lately. Peace with a good nephew. When I figure out who's behind all this, I'm not just gonna let it go. Mm, you should be more careful in the future. I'll be back now, “Grover showed hypocritical affection and turned around, leading his men out. When he reached the door, he suddenly turned around and looked at Han Shuo. “Bare fellow, what's your name?”
“Bryan!” Han Shuo bowed slightly and smiled urbanly as he replied.
Nodding, Grover said, “Bryan, mm. Good name, good name. I'll remember you!”
Grover finally left the room after saying this.
“I think I've gotten into big trouble thanks to your purposeful actions. Miss Phoebe, how do you intend to compensate Me? ”The faint smile on Han Shuo's face disappeared as Grover left, and he looked at Phoebe coldly.
“Despite the money for this resource, I will pay you three thousand additional gold. Three thousand gold is enough to buy some lives, what do you think? ”Phoebe let out a faint laugh, speaking softly as a wise and farsighted light shone in her eyes.
Han Shuo's heart trembled as his face became adorned with a smile once more. He spoke with satisfaction, “I like this big problem!”
