The Great Demon King

Chapter 71 "The moment of blessing before the opening of the assassination "

After spending the entire day preparing, Han Shuo and Phoebe took the train at dusk to the Boozt Merchant Guild in the southern part of the city.

Han Shuo and Phoebe sat side by side inside the carriage. Two primitively simplified bows, decorated with intricate carvings, were placed in front of the two. Moreover, there was a dagger that shone with a cold light.

“This land and dagger are of much better quality than you got from the orc wolf riders last time. I gave all of this to you for free, “Phoebe held a clean piece of silk in her hand, carefully wiping the long sword in her hand as she spoke coldly to Han Shuo.

Han Shuo played with arrows and daggers in his hands, so pleased with them that he could not bear to put them down. He was quite satisfied with Phoebe's generosity and said with a light laugh, “Don't rely too much on Me for this operation, I'm not as strong as you think. My main goal is to supervise and act as your supporting assistant. You will still be the one to take action. ”

“I know, just listen to my orders later. I will tell you what to do, “Phoebe rolled her eyes towards Han Shuo and said angrily.

Han Shuo took out a small bottle from within the space ring and carefully poured the powder onto his fingertips, carefully coating the ends of both the dagger and the arrow bolts. He hurriedly and repeatedly cleaned the fingertips that had been covered by the powder.

Phoebe was a little curious about Han Shuo's actions and slightly shifted his body closer to where he was sitting, continuing to stare and observe his actions for a while. He finally asked, seemingly confused, “What are you doing?”

A scent, similar to the scent of an orchid, floated into Han Shuo's mouth and nose as Phoebe moved closer to him. He subconsciously glanced at her as his heart suddenly jolted. Phoebe was like Han Shuo today, wearing tight, black clothes, walking at night. The tight nightwalker outfit causes Phoebe's incredible body to become visible without a doubt. She had a pair of exquisitely chiseled cheeks, and a stunning beauty that grew from her clear eye movements. All of that caused Han Shuo to have a heart like a capering monkey and a mind like a galloping horse.

I already have Fanny .. Although Phoebe is beautiful, her personality is too cold and she carries too many dangerous items. Han Shuo said inwardly to himself and turned his head away after that, continuing to concentrate on coating the daggers and arrow bolts. He replied timidly, “Not much, just apply poison powder to my weapon.”

“Tercela! Shameless! This was against the rules of the Empire. If anyone knew your actions, you would be in deep trouble! “Phoebe's face was full of disdain as she spoke coldly.

“No problem .. what we will do today is not the most honorable task. Besides, no one will know about this. Heh heh, you are my accomplice and even I do not believe that you are stupid enough to isolate yourself. “Han Shuo laughed softly, wickedly as he spoke with a hint of pride.

Phoebe was somewhat suffocated by her anger after hearing Han Shuo's words, but because she asked for his help, she could only snort coldly and could not say much else.

When Han Shuo had applied the poison powder onto all the arrow bolts and daggers, he thought for a moment and pulled a few iron needles from his thigh. He had no trouble and was very patient as he also used the same poison powder on the iron needle. Phoebe once again snorted softly, seemingly holding onto Han Shuo's method with disdain.

When he finished everything exactly, Han Shuo put away all his weapons and looked at Phoebe, asking, “True, why didn't you directly attack Grover and try to kill his two ineffective minions instead?”

“Grover had some important items belonging to the Guild, he placed those items in a trusted affair. If Grover died, his employer would have announced the items in public. It will be destructive for us. So before I kill Grover, I have to find his mistress first and regain control of the stuff. ”Phoebe glanced at Han Shuo, explaining with a hint of reluctance.

The larger the merchant union, the more likely a shady transaction will occur. Take the resources Han Shuo took from the Orc wolf riders for example. These items originally belonged to shops in the city of Drol. The Empire has long had an official rule that if citizens acquire such resources, they must be handed over.

Fabian and Han Shuo's transaction had violated the Empire's rules. If the Empire were to find out about the methods of the Boozt Merchant Guild, the Guild would definitely find it difficult to avoid their inevitable punishment. For a guild like the Boozt Merchant Guild, there were bound to be similar illegal transactions. It seems like this critical issue was handled by Grover. No wonder Phoebe did not dare to act rashly towards Grover.

The two discussed some details in a low voice until the horse carriage suddenly stopped without anyone knowing. The groom in front said softly, “Nona, we've reached the back door of the guild.”

“Come go!” Phoebe glanced at Han Shuo and took the lead in descending. Han Shuo poked his head out to take a look and then jumped up as well.

“Nona, quick sign in. Careful. Grover had just picked up a few strong men and left the guild. I don't know where they're going. They always come back at the end of the night. ”An old man in the Boozt Merchant Guild guarded the back door and hurriedly turned his body sideways to allow Phoebe and Han Shuo to enter when he saw them arrive ..

“We made you try hard,” Phoebe told the old man. He glanced at Han Shuo as they rushed into the guild. Han Shuo followed closely behind Phoebe as he also quickly moved forward.

“Although the Guild is largely controlled by Grover's men, I was able to mobilize some of the older men, and this was all because Grover was unaware of My relationship with them. There are a lot of guards inside, so we have to be careful and careful. Otherwise, the murder would not only fail if we were discovered, but it would be difficult to escape with our lives. ”Phoebe was very familiar with the Boozt Merchant Guild as she evaded several areas with the guards as she led Han Shuo at a quick pace. He did not forget to remind Han Shuo all along.

It's really dark now. There was no moon tonight and the thick layer of dark-colored clouds completely absorbed all the light. The few lights along the hallway of the Boozt Merchant Guild were unable to shine too far.

His magical yuan was stirring madly, Han Shuo was deeply enchanted by his incredible senses when he calmed down. The black night was completely unable to block his range of vision. Even without the lighting of the lights, Han Shuo could clearly see the fish swimming in the pond under the artificial mountains in the distance. He could also clearly hear footsteps coming from a considerable distance away and rustling low sounds within the passing room.

Han Shuo's calm path was also nimble and quickly surpassed the comparison. He's like a hunting cheetah, looking for his prey, following silently behind Phoebe.

Suddenly, Han Shuo quickly approached and grabbed Phoebe, suddenly lifting his body and inserting himself into a crack in the surrounding artificial mountains.

The cracks in the artificial mountains were very narrow, and their chests were tightly sealed against each other as they went inside. Han Shuo could feel the rounded peak in front of Phoebe's chest. Her charming face was enraged as she stared intently at Han Shuo, her eyes looking like they could spew fire.

“Shh!” Stretching out a finger to make a silencing motion, Han Shuo's eyes rolled swiftly, showing Phoebe that there was an unexpected situation.

The anger on Phoebe's face was still not lost on Han Shuo's actions. Red trails flooded Phoebe's slender, white neck and nape. Their two thighs were somewhat entangled and rubbed against each other, they could even feel the heartbeat of each other through their connecting chest. An ambiguous atmosphere began to appear between the two of them.

Seemingly too embarrassed to look at Han Shuo, Phoebe's cheek was walking next to Han Shuo's ear as she said in a very low voice, her breath was like an orchid, “I'll kill you if nothing happens.”

Han Shuo's expression was sour as he adjusted his breath and concentrated, saying nothing. He felt very light footsteps approaching. His breathing became slower and he even slightly shook his head, wanting to warn Phoebe of the danger. Who knew that because Phoebe was pursing her jade lips in a low whisper to Han Shuo, Han Shuo's headband actually caused Phoebe's lips to tease directly into Han Shuo's cheeks.

Just as Phoebe's breath was agitated and about to explode, Han Shuo turned his head with great difficulty and used a very firm gaze to tell Phoebe to be careful.

Phoebe had the training of a sword master, and the strength of her mental state was quite strong. He only took a deep breath at this critical moment and immediately calmed his racing heart. However, due to his deep breathing, the full peak in front of his chest involuntarily lifted, rising so that Han Shuo almost lost control and groaned.

“Wind screen I really felt a disturbance and I came here as soon as possible. Why didn't I find something? Have I been too careful lately? ”The muttering voice of a man talking to himself sounded out, not too far away from the two.

Extremely light footsteps only slowly sounded around him after the voice sounded. If Phoebe does not increase his concentration to the maximum, it will be very difficult to detect these measures unless the man is close enough.

Since he was a wind mage, he could indeed use the main wind auxiliary magic to greatly reduce his body weight. His walking speed would be faster than normal magicians and warriors, and his footsteps would be more pliable without a sound. No wonder even with Phoebe's strength as a swordsman, he was able to detect his movements only after he got close.

This person scanned the surroundings, finally leaving without a sound while Han Shuo and Phoebe remained uneasy.

However, Phoebe did not dare to take reckless action at this moment. He was afraid desperately that his judgment would be flawed. His pair of clear eyes pointed straight at Han Shuo, as if wanting to get some hints from Han Shuo's face.

After a while, Han Shuo exhaled lightly and said lowly, “He's gone!”

As soon as his voice rang out, Phoebe used her hands and feet together to wriggle out of the artificial mountain pass. He lowered his head and said lightly in a fierce tone, “I'll let it pass this time, but the next time something like this happens, find a wider place, I'll let it pass, otherwise I won't let you go.”

Phoebe spun around the area after she finished speaking and was about to head in another direction. He walked two steps and realized that Han Shuo was smiling wryly, yet to catch up. He stuck his hand on his waist and lightly reprimanded, “You don't want black gold ore anymore?”

“Come!” Han Shou responded and followed with some resignation, thinking when I could find a spacious hiding place when things went south!

They did not meet with any unexpected twists again after that. Phoebe led Han Shuo on a longer path, dodging several waves of guards and finally making it into Darnell and Yuna's room.

“Let's arrange everything, make our preparations, and wait for this dog pair to return!” Phoebe immediately spoke through gnawed teeth as she entered the room, seemingly wanting to vent her frustration from before on the two of them.

Hence, Han Shuo and Phoebe began to work busily, preparing to kill Grover's loyal henchmen who were about to return.
