Chapter 524 Meeting the old
In fact, the Shadow Sword Master at this time was also full of grievances. In fact, strictly speaking, he was the biggest victim of this assassination operation. Because according to his original intention, he didn't want to assassinate Catherine at all. Not only was he afraid of Catherine's princess status, but the most important thing was that he didn't want to provoke the crazy Lightning Saint.
You know, the Shadow Sword Master is not an idiot. Although he has a deep hatred for the old mage and secretly wants to bite each other to death, he clearly knows the strength gap between the two. Before he can defeat the old mage, What he wanted to do most in his heart was to be a coward. As long as the old mage didn't cause trouble for him, he would be satisfied. How could he be willing to take the initiative to provoke him? Isn't that seeking death?
But when he thought about it, the actual situation was beyond his control, because he had made a fatal mistake before, that is, he was seduced by the queen and fell into the emperor's bed. Of course he was cuckolded by the emperor, and of course the queen caught him by the pigtails, so he had to become a knife in the queen's hand. Yesterday's assassination was carried out at the Queen's request.
After the incident failed, the Queen was fine. She was not worried that the Shadow Sword Master would dare to betray her, so the Shadow Sword Master could only bear the blame. So he told the emperor that he took the initiative to do this in order to purify the royal bloodline. Of course, the emperor didn't believe this childish statement at all, so the third prince had to take the initiative to stand up and take some responsibility. But just like that, the Shadow Sword Master also followed the emperor's lead. Not only was he reprimanded, but the emperor also transferred most of his elite men out of distrust of him.
In other words, there are actually only five to six hundred reserve assassins still in training in this castle, all of whom are novices with low strength. There are only less than 100 real masters above level four. More than 300 other elites were sent elsewhere by the emperor during the day.
So, facing the fierce offensive of the Stephen family, the Shadow Sword Master could only bite the bullet and beg for mercy, without any intention of resisting. If all his elite men were there, he wouldn't be so careful. Even if he couldn't defeat the opponent, there would be no problem in breaking through with all his strength! After all, Lao Xie only brought 500 people, and it was impossible to surround and annihilate the same number of assassins. but now. Even if the Shadow Sword Master defends with all his strength, he may not be able to withstand the attack of Lao Xie and his men, let alone the opponent has such heaven-defying things as goblin mines.
Hearing the wailing words of the Shadow Sword Master, the old mage felt an inexplicable flash of relief in his heart. After all, the guy in front of him was the enemy he had hated for a hundred years! The old mage was naturally happy to see him begging for mercy in such a humble manner. And he also enjoyed this atmosphere, so he simply stretched out his hand to stop the Cyclops' attack. Then he said with a smile, "What, the famous Shadow Sword Master, do you want to ask for mercy?"
"Yes!" The Shadow Sword Master turned green with anger at the old mage's words, but in order to preserve his foundation, he could only hold back his anger. Then he said: "Okay, I'll admit defeat, you can set the conditions!"
"My condition is very simple, you all must die!" the old mage said coldly.
"Stephen. Don't go too far!" Shadow Sword Master couldn't help but said angrily: "Don't you care about the emperor's feelings at all?"
"I said, he is in the first grade of junior high school, and I am in the fifteenth grade! Don't blame anyone! If you really want to blame, then blame you for being stupid!" The old mage then said calmly: "In addition, , don’t take me for a fool, I know you are stalling for time, right?”
Although the Shadow Sword Master's expression changed a bit, he still argued. "What's delaying time? I don't understand what you mean!"
"Haha, let me tell you then!" The old mage then sneered: "Ten miles away from here, there is a military camp with 10,000 troops stationed inside, all of which are elite cavalry. They are sent by His Majesty the Emperor to protect this place. It’s specially set up. Isn’t the reason why you keep talking nonsense to me just waiting for them to support you?”
"Haha, what a joke, they are ten miles away. They can't hear me even if I shout until my throat breaks!" Shadow Sword Master immediately pretended to be relaxed.
"But you can send people out from the secret tunnel to ask for help. Right?" The old mage suddenly sneered: "But it's a pity, your tunnel has been sealed by me!"
"Huh?" After hearing this, the Shadow Sword Master finally couldn't help but change his color and said: "Well, Stephen. Are you really planning to drive me out?"
"Haha, the acting was good, but unfortunately, I saw too much, so your acting skills still can't fool me!" The old mage sneered again: "Your nonsense just now is still delaying time, eh , that means you are still expecting reinforcements. Haha, I understand. There shouldn't be any means of magical communication between you, right?"
"Hey!" After hearing this, the Shadow Sword Master couldn't help laughing immediately: "Okay, he is worthy of being the Lightning Sage with the title of Old Fox. Stephen, you did guess it right. In a critical place like ours, why? Maybe there is no magic communication? In fact, even if you attack now, it is too late. The other side has already received the news. For ten thousand cavalry, a journey of ten miles is just a blink of an eye. If I were you, I would turn around and escape immediately. Crushed to pieces by the army!”
"It's a pity that you are not me, because you are not as stupid as you!" The old mage sneered: "Don't forget, I am involved in all the defense of the imperial capital, and I know exactly where the troops are stationed. Those ten thousand cavalry I have long felt that it was an eyesore. There was no need to be stationed there, but the emperor was determined to place it there. But after I found out the location of your lair yesterday, everything became clear. So, you can give up! If we don’t make arrangements, they will never come to rescue you! We have plenty of time, so we can take our time!”
"Yes, yes!" Lao Xie immediately smiled and said: "It doesn't matter if you just play for a few days. Anyway, it is very remote here, and there is often no passerby for more than ten days!"
Actually, what Lao Xie said is a bit exaggerated. After all, those 10,000 elite cavalry were no joke, and Lao Xie couldn't stop the opponent for several days. In fact, he could only block it for one night. The method is to let the sirens sing a siren song. Christian took dozens of masters from the Stephen family to **** the sirens to do this.
But the Shadow Sword Master didn't know the truth. When he heard the old mage pointed out the location of the reinforcements, he was so confident. He immediately believed it to be true, and then became discouraged. He knew that things would probably not go well today.
"Stephen, is there really no room for negotiation?" Shadow Sword Master suddenly frowned. Apparently, this was his last attempt.
The old mage stopped talking nonsense and said directly: "The only thing I can do for you is to give you a fair chance to fight. However, if you want to test my patience and continue to delay, then don't blame me. A group of us are attacking you!"
"Oh my, siege is good, it saves time and effort! And the reward is not less!" Lan Fake immediately shouted: "I strongly demand that the siege be launched immediately, so go back to bed early!"
"Hmph!" Upon seeing this, the Shadow Sword Master knew that there was no room for redemption, so he no longer compromised and sneered directly: "Besiege? Am I afraid of you here?"
As he spoke, the Shadow Sword Master waved his hand, and three people immediately walked out from behind the city wall. The two black-clothed assassins, judging from their size and aura, were the same powerful men from the Sanctuary who assassinated Catherine yesterday. The remaining one was a woman wearing a black magic robe, with a mask on her face, looking down on her face.
But the old mage recognized it immediately, and he said with a little surprise: "Wella? Is it you?"
"It's me, teacher!" After the female magician finished speaking, she bowed and saluted the old mage, and said, "I haven't seen you for many years, how are you?"
"I'm just so-so, but you're amazing!" the old mage said with a little surprise: "It's already a holy realm. If I remember correctly, you are less than 50 years old this year, right?"
"Yes, teacher!" Weina nodded and said, "This disciple is 48 years old this year!"
"Amazing!" the old mage said with excitement: "Although when I taught you, I knew that your talent was very high and you should be able to reach the level of the holy realm, but I deduced at the time that even if you stepped into The Holy Land must be at least a hundred years old, but I didn’t expect you to succeed at the age of 48. This is really incredible!”
"I'm sorry, teacher, to disappoint you!" Wei Na said a little guiltily: "I actually didn't enter the holy realm on my own!"
"Oh, did you rely on external forces to forcibly improve?" The old mage said slightly surprised after hearing this.
"Yes!" Wei Na nodded shyly.
"What a pity!" The old mage immediately shook his head and said: "Did you know? It is actually very stupid to use external force to improve your realm. Not only is it extremely dangerous, but it will also greatly damage your body and shorten your life span. . What’s especially serious is that you will never be able to enter the legendary realm again!”
"Legend is so far away from me, I haven't thought about it at all!" Wei Na said with a bitter smile.
"Well, that's true. With your talent, the chance of becoming a legend is only 30%. However, it is worth a try. It will be much better than what you are now." The old mage said with regret: " Silly boy, after being forcibly promoted, your strength is still lower than that of the holy realm you promoted, why can't you wait?"
“I can’t help myself!” Weina said helplessly, “The organization needs a Holy Mage!”
"So that's it!" The old mage suddenly remembered something and said hurriedly: "Where are the dozen children with you?"
"They are all dead!" Shadow Sword Master said slightly impatiently: "Do you think it is so easy to improve your realm? It would be good if one of them can succeed, but this is also thanks to your good education! If not If you teach with all your heart, I’m afraid you won’t succeed even in this one.”
