Chapter 629 The Battle Without Light
Hand knife!
It is not in the conventional sense, five fingers close together, hitting people with the lower edge of the little finger, but a real knife in the hand.
There is a row of wavy blades from the lower edge of the little finger to the wrist. The blades are blackened and treated with a matte finish. If the blades do not cut the air and make a slight sound, this hand knife is truly silent. No interest.
It was this sound that gave Shen Er a chance to react.
Sensing the danger, Shen Er hurriedly lowered his body, then swung his backhand, and slashed at the attacker from bottom to top—no, it might not be a person, although he could roughly see that it was a human form from the corner of his eye, but Shen Er did not It did not sense the characteristics that humans should have, such as body temperature, heartbeat, and breath.
"Is it a doll?"
Shinji made a judgment while the blade was blocked.Although the sharp gun, bow and knife are not very sharp, it is impossible for someone to hold them so easily.And the owner of the house, Ms. Canozaki Chengzi, passed the evaluation of the clock tower's "crown position" as a "doll".
Taking the initiative to cut off the magic offering of the bow and knife, the blade woven with magic power disappeared. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Shinji stepped back quickly while looking at the doll in front of him.
She has long hair and is about 165cm tall. Although she is hiding in the shadows and cannot see her face clearly, judging from the outline, she should be a woman, and it is not a common sign of Aoko, because the eyes of the doll are rare amber.
The vision was blurred for a while, and the outline of the human figure was disappearing from Shen Er's eyes in a strange way.
"Stealth? It seems that Chengzi referred to my fighting style when making the puppets... Very good, let's compare, whose stealth is more professional."
Shinji tugged on the cloak, and his figure also began to disappear.
Generally speaking, no one will play face-to-face stealth, because the effect of hidden abilities or props will be greatly reduced once they are discovered, but there are not without exceptions, such as in special environments.The enchantment built by the orange creates a special environment, and the dazzling shadows will affect the vision to the greatest extent, making it easier to hide.
The single-family house that kept a certain distance from the surrounding buildings returned to calm again, but this calm was only superficial, and under the shadow that was difficult for human eyes to detect, the dark battle intensified.
The light is distorted. Although there is a silver moon in the sky, it is not completely dark, but there is still no picture, and even the sound is difficult to escape from this area. Standing outside the barrier, Alquite can only vaguely hear the sound of the sharp blades meeting. sound, and more and more frequently.
one second.
two seconds.
three seconds.
……
1 minutes.
2 minutes.
3 minutes.
……
The time is not too long, but it feels extremely long.
Hand knife, bow knife.
Fist, palm.
Can't see clearly, can't hear clearly.
One side is a puppet with no life features, and the other side is a hidden person with an artifact.
This is a duel of darkness.
This is a confrontation between silence.
This is a real battle of assassins.
This kind of battle is destined to be impossible to last... When one of the parties is forced to release the concealment, it will be the time to decide the outcome, just like darkness can never last long.
Accompanied by a strange explosion, a figure was knocked out of the air, stumbled and staggered.
A gray cloak was in tatters, spirit particles were constantly scattered outward, and the re-woven blades of the bow and knife became fragmented.His left arm turned golden at some point, and a bruised wound occupied more than half of his forearm, blood dyed golden flowed out.
Along with the blood, there was sweat on his forehead.There is no doubt that Shinji lost this confrontation in the dark.
With Shen Er's current strength and physique, it is impossible for him to sweat profusely in just a few minutes, no matter how strenuous the exercise is.But the pressure on the mental level is another matter. The state of being blinded by the senses, knowing that there is an enemy but being unable to grasp it, is really too much pressure.
This is probably what it feels like to let ordinary people dance on the blade with their eyes blindfolded.
It was this kind of experience that made Shen Er realize for the first time what real assassination is.
Unlike herself, a faker who relied on a treasure and used the name of an assassin to fight her face, she was a veritable assassin who truly killed people invisible.
"Tick!"
"Tick!"
"Tick!"
The blood mixed with sweat dripped to the ground, and Shen Ershu was convinced.
However, apart from admiration, he had some doubts whether this doll was made by Cheng Zi.
It's not that he questioned Cheng Zi's ability, but that he felt the "mystery of the age" from the doll, which is a history accumulated over a long period of time, and it only belongs to the doll itself, not something added from outside.It is precisely because of this attribute that the relic's protection was broken and Shen Er's left arm was hurt.
Of course, it does not rule out that Chengzi used a lot of ancient materials to create this doll,
"You, what is it?"
Of course she didn't answer because that would expose herself.In a flash of lightning, Shen Er saw a spark of intelligence in those amber eyes.
She is no ordinary puppet.
"Answer me! If you don't answer, I will have to ask your master face to face."
Regardless of the bleeding wound, Shinji rushed towards the door of the hut.
Just a second before he touched the doorknob, a sharp knife suddenly appeared and pierced his back.
However, at the critical moment when he might die at any time, Shen Er not only did not panic, but showed a confident smile. With a flick of his right hand, the "Sharp Spear, Bow and Knife" came out of his hand, knocking the sharp blade that hit the back of his heart.
At the same time, Shen Er turned around in the opposite direction of the sharp blade, and patted the assassin doll's abdomen lightly with his dark palm.
The puppet slipped and nearly fell to the ground, with obvious panic flashing in its eyes.
Ignoring the enemy who was close in front of him, only one step away from killing him, the assassin puppet quickly backed away.
It's a pity that it was too late, the puppet only took two steps back, and found that its feet were getting heavier and heavier.Looking down, the part below the knees has turned gray-white—this is the performance of petrification.
"I finally caught you, Miss Assassin, can you tell me the answer now?"
Withdrawing the "Shield of Athena" from his hand, Shinji smiled gently at the doll.
"It's okay if you don't want to say it, the owner of this room will tell me the answer."
"No, I'll tell you the answer."
There are both the girl's tenderness and the majestic voice of the superior, but it does not come from the mouth of the assassin puppet, but from a farther place.
"Similarly, I also have some questions to ask you, please be sure to answer truthfully, if you don't want your companion to be hurt."
