Broad World

In the dark basement, there were only a few oil lamps emitting orange light, and screams came from a copper pipe upstairs. Maiwa stood there with a livid face, his hands were trembling all the time. He knew that his matter was completely finished. No need to ask, the Shadow Thief must have found evidence of the mutiny. I am afraid that the entire union has already been captured.

"Boss, you should pay attention to whether we are running away or going all out." An assassin urged anxiously. He knew very well that according to the rules of the Great Cleansing, no one here would be spared. If you don't leave, it may be too late once the people above are dead.

Maiwa took a deep breath, then pulled out the dagger and stabbed it fiercely on the table and shouted: "Let's go! This account will be recorded first! When we find out who is behind the trick, we must let him live or die!"

The five confidants were all relieved when they heard that they were going to escape, and immediately opened the hidden compartment on the wall, only to find piles of gold coins and precious stones inside, as well as some rare metals. When they were desperately trying to put things into the bag, a cold light flashed in the air suddenly. The pastor only felt a chill on his neck, and then he felt the world spinning and fell to the ground with a thud. It turned out that his neck had been pierced by a sharp knife, and blood gushed out like a spring.

Seeing this scene, Maiwa's pupils shrank sharply, and immediately blessed himself with a "Stone Skin Technique", drew out his weapon and shouted into the air: "Who? Who is hiding there! Get out!"

His nerves are already in a state of extreme alertness, he can assassinate a person in full view, and then disappear without a sound. Only a handful of top assassin masters can do it. in the current state. No one dared to chant the spell at all. Because this suicide doesn't make much difference. God knows if there will be a dagger stabbing from the back the next moment, the remaining four cronies put down the valuables in their hands and began to retreat slowly, forming a back-to-back defensive formation.

There was a wave of fluctuations in the air, followed by a man wearing black tight leather armor and a hood on his head appeared on the spot. With graceful steps, he flicked the dagger that was still bleeding from his hand, looking like a king visiting his palace.

"Akanis! Aren't you already seriously injured?!" Maiwa shouted out. Almost anyone who has been in the Shadow Thieves Guild for a few years will be afraid to hear this name. His existence itself is a huge deterrent.

"Seriously injured? That's right. I was lying in bed in the middle of the night enduring the erosion of negativity, but now it seems that everything is over. Do you seem to know what it feels like? Don't worry, I will let you taste it."

Arcanis had a sarcastic smile on his lips, his feet suddenly started to accelerate, and he rushed in front of the four cronies in the blink of an eye. I saw two daggers drawing two beautiful arcs, and then kicked a person in the back of the head with a rollover out of thin air. The moment he landed, three people fell to the ground, leaving only Maiwa and the last subordinate standing there with disbelief on their faces.

In the blink of an eye, three people were killed on the spot, two of them had their throats cut, and the head of the other was hit hard on the ground and already blossomed. The movement of the legendary rogue is so pleasing to the eye. There was not a single trace of excess in the whole process, it was as perfect as a textbook.

"Pa. Papa, papa." Suddenly there was a burst of applause behind him, followed by a person walking out of the darkness, it was Henry who had just walked down the stairs. He bowed slightly and said, "Great, this is the smoothest attack I've ever seen, and it's even more fascinating than Drizzt's scimitar swing."

Arcanis returned the salute with a smile. "Thank you for your praise, it makes me feel very happy. You must know that there is nothing in this world that is sweeter than the taste of revenge, especially when you are about to see the pain, helplessness, struggle, pleading, and screaming of the enemy in front of your eyes. Thinking about it makes people feel intoxicated."

"In this case, Maiwa will be handed over to you. I just want to give you a final confession. Finally, I wish you a happy revenge. As for the miscellaneous fish, I will let this dwarf deal with it. He complained just now that the killing was a bit unsatisfactory." As he spoke, Henry directly took out the "Onaga's Fire Scepter of Darkness" and shot a wall of fire to separate the two.

Korgan, who came belatedly, roared and charged at his enemy with an ax in hand. With his height advantage, he smashed his opponent's knee in the first round. The thief fell to the ground and howled in pain, not even knowing where the weapon in his hand was thrown. It's a pity that this tragic scene didn't get any sympathy. The dwarf laughed wildly and cut off the opponent's limbs, and then cruelly threw them into the wall of fire.

"Hahahahaha! Scream! Scream louder! I like this sound the most, this feeling is really wonderful." Korgan danced and vented his excess energy. His bloodthirsty and cruelty can be said to have reached the extreme, I am afraid that even the devil's believers are not so crazy.

Akanis saw Maiwa's fearful expression and a sneer flickered across his mouth. "Aha! It seems that your loyal subordinates are dead, and now it's time for the two of us to settle our personal grievances. Do you know? I really like the look in your eyes now, and I hope it can last until the moment of death."

"Come on! I'm not afraid of you. Don't think there's anything special about legendary thieves. You'll soon know that I'm not easy to mess with." Maiwa said with a strong outside appearance. One of his hands has reached into the magic material bag, ready to release deadly magic at any time.

"Very good! Very good! Do you know? I like prey that resists the most. Come, let me see how you struggle."

As soon as the words fell, Akanis launched the attack first. He suddenly took out a magic scroll and activated it. A white magic aura dispelled the "Stone Skin Technique", and then rushed forward with a stride. Two daggers were quickly inserted into the sides of the shoulders. If they hit, the two arms would be crippled instantly.

Maiwa was not as vulnerable as everyone imagined, when the dagger just pierced his clothes, another "Stone Skin Technique" was instantly blessed. The weapon seemed to have touched a hard rock, and a lot of stone chips splashed out, but it didn't touch the skin at all. While he was still protected, he hurriedly chanted a spell and shot a magic missile.

Arcanis hurriedly backed away, blocking him with his wrist guard. After a round of attacks, he stared at his opponent in surprise and asked loudly, "When did you become a twelfth-level mage?" You must know that the protective magic just now needs "surprise" to be triggered, and only spellcasters above twelfth level have sixth-level spell slots.

"Are you surprised? I have kept this secret for a long time, just to give you a surprise. Everyone knows that if you want to replace Renault Bloodhead, you must kill Arkanis first. I waited for this day for ten years. Unfortunately, I still failed in the end. But it doesn't matter, killing you at a later moment is also a good choice."

After Maiwa finished speaking, he drank a bottle of invisibility potion and disappeared in place, followed by the sound of chanting spells throughout the room. Obviously, he blessed himself with the "Phantom Sound Technique" in an attempt to use this magic to confuse hearing in order to delay time. For the caster, it only needs a large-scale killing spell or the elimination of invisibility magic, which can be easily solved, but for the thieves, there is no way to tell the difference.

Seeing Arcanis searching around cautiously, Henry shook his head slightly after seeing it. After searching in such a large place, Maiwa had already blessed a body with protective magic. But he can't intervene now, otherwise it would be distrust of the legendary thief's strength. It seems that the advantages of spellcasters over other professions are still too obvious, and the unpredictable attack methods and endless defenses are very difficult to deal with.

The sound of chanting the incantation lasted for more than a minute before gradually stopping. The entire underground hall was terribly quiet, only the slight breathing of a few people remained. Suddenly there was a slight fluctuation in the air, and a crossbow arrow glowing blue pierced the air and shot towards Arkanis' back. The legendary thief is worthy of being a legendary thief. He didn't even look back, and just dodged it with a rollover.

"It's really a sensitive reaction, but if you shoot ten arrows at a time, can you still dodge it?" Maiwa who had blessed the protective magic revealed. I saw a crossbow with five arrows in each of his two hands, each arrow had a blue metallic luster, it looked like it had been poisoned, and it was the kind of poison that sealed the throat with blood.

Arcanis replied with a sneer, "Why don't you try?"

"Very good suggestion, then please die now!" After speaking, Maiwa pulled the trigger, and ten arrows made a "swish" sound and flew away through the air.

Just when he was full of confidence and planned to see the enemy fall to the ground, Arcanis told the opponent with both hands that everything in front of him was so ridiculous. He threw the two daggers on the ground, and then grabbed all the arrows with his dexterous hands and threw them back.

Maiwa obviously didn't expect this, and he didn't add magic like "Protection against long-range weapons". The ten arrows broke through the protection of the "Stone Skin Technique" in an instant, and he felt a sharp pain. Several highly poisonous arrows stuck in his chest, and black poisonous blood flowed out from the shafts of the arrows.

In just five seconds, the poisonous poison of the blood seal killed the ambitious bandit leader. Without hesitation, Henry cast a spell to imprison his soul in the gemstone, and prepared to torture him for a while to see if there were any other unknown secrets.

"Sorry, I didn't control my emotions just now and killed him by mistake." Akanis came over with a face of shame and apologized. He also didn't expect Maiwa to hide so deeply, this guy probably has already surpassed level 20 including the thief level.

Henry smiled and shook the soul gem in his hand. "It's nothing, Maiwa's soul is still with me, and I can torture and torture slowly." (To be continued...)
