The Witcher’s Nightmare Wagon

Chapter 143 The Ability of the Substitute Messenger

1889, London, rain.

Nearly a year ago, Jack the Ripper, who caused panic throughout the city of London, has faded out of people's discussion. A murderer who suddenly disappeared, ordinary people don't care too much after a long time.

But in the minds of very few people in the City of London, in the occasional private letter, some people with real power know very well that Jack the Ripper did not disappear suddenly.

He was killed.

A ghost in the dark, an arbiter of justice.

Legendary assassin.

Ashley Nova.

She was supposed to be killed in Jack the Ripper's attack, but she reappeared strangely after a month of disappearance. This time, it didn't take long for the female assassin to lock on Jack the Ripper's hiding place.

There is no struggle and counterattack in third-rate novels.

The female assassin who attacked again, the powerful and terrifying Jack the Ripper who terrified the entire city of London, died without dignity in front of her.

At this time, many people believed that Ashley Nova's skills had reached the limit that all assassins could achieve.

But two months later, during a series of missions in India, she shocked the entire London upper class with unimaginable means.

There are even many people who believe that Ashley has reached a more terrifying level than legend.

That was the golden age dating back to the origins of the Assassins.

No one knew exactly what happened to Ashley during the more than a month of disappearance, but in just a few months, her prestige surpassed that of her teacher Evie and another assassin, Jacob.

Slowly, more and more voices came, and everyone hoped that this legendary assassin could lead them to a new glory.

But in the face of the honor that every assassin pursues all his life.

Ashley, who had high hopes, chose to give in.

"This wet weather!"

Ashley stood in the shadows, hiding all traces without moving her body.

She missed Sigmund's hug the last time they parted, and she thought she would be able to see that man again in a week.

It can be one week, two weeks, one month, two months.

As time passed, Ashley's heart sank to the bottom.

"Has he forgotten me?"

"Or is there an accident and danger?"

The horror of the other world is far beyond imagination. Here she is an unrivaled legendary assassin, but in another world, she is just an insignificant third-order.

Yes, third order.

Two months after returning to London, the natural growth of spiritual power allowed Ashley to complete the ceremony and be promoted to the third rank.

At this time, she is already a stand-in messenger.

In addition to the strengthening of physical fitness and the enhancement of original abilities, the most powerful aspect of a stand-in messenger lies in camouflage.

[Stand-In Messenger]: They are liars, pretenders, and you will never know which person around you is a hidden assassin.

Manipulating Corpse: Occupying a recently dead or unconscious host, this control cannot continue indefinitely, and intense combat or action-intensive activities cannot continue during the control period.

While manipulating the corpse, it does not affect the normal activities of the main body.

Possession: They can physically bond with some animals of similar size for a short period of time.

Normal activities are not affected during the possession, but after the end, the target creature will be drained of a lot of energy, and even lead to death.

If the target of possession is a human being, some simple information can also be obtained from the spirit of the other party.

The ability of the stand-in messenger does not directly enhance the combat effectiveness much, but these two abilities make the assassination methods more diverse.

Using these two abilities, Ashley has truly come and gone without a trace, and many of her assassination cases have become unsolved mysteries so far.

After entering the third level, her spiritual growth didn't stop.

Until now, almost a year after returning to London, Ashley's spiritual power had grown to the late stage of the third level, and it was also during that period that her growing spiritual power stopped completely.

At this time, Ashley understood one thing, this is not her own limit, but the limit of the world in front of her. To improve, she has to get out of here.

"Sigmon, what happened?"

Unbeknownst to Ashley, she had been in London for almost a year, and on the other hand, she had been away for less than a week.

In the pattering rain, this city that Ashley used to be very familiar with made her feel a little strange and lonely.

And at this moment, she felt a familiar call.

"It's Sigmund!"

A wave of ecstasy surged in her heart, and Ashley waited silently, obeying the call.

After an unknown amount of time, the sound of the rain gradually stopped, and the stagnant water on the street slowly dissipated, but there was no one in a certain dark corner.

The scene in front of her eyes changed, and when she opened her eyes again, Ashley found that she had appeared in a familiar carriage, and that familiar figure was sitting on the sofa in the carriage.

"You're level three?!" Sigmund was surprised, "It's only been a few days, not even a week!"

This speed of improvement puts a lot of pressure on me as a protagonist.

"One week?" Ashley seemed to understand something, and couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

It's not that you forgot me, it's not that you had an accident.

"Isn't it right, I remember clearly?"

"Your time should be correct, but I didn't spend a week in London, but almost a whole year!"

"What?!"

Sigmund realized instantly that when they were in two worlds, the time was out of sync.

The two communicated, and Sigmund confirmed his guess. If Ashley was in this world with him, then the flow of time would remain the same.

If they are separated from each other, there will be a big time difference.

And in another world, when Ashley increases her spiritual power, she won't encounter any interference from empty ravings. Sigmund originally thought that this method could be used to place it directly and increase it to a high level after hanging up.

But unfortunately, Ashley told him that in that world, the late third-order stage was almost the limit.

"That's fine, you're mentally stable now, without any burden, just consolidate a little bit, maybe you've already entered the fourth level before I can enter the third level."

"The Creed Assassin of Tier 4, I'm holding on to this thigh!"

He was half joking, the higher Ashley's level was, the more benefits he would naturally get.

"It's good to come back. Although there was a little accident, the result is good."

"Yes." Ashley nodded, "It's been nearly a year, and I've learned something and figured something out."

Having said that, the female assassin suddenly raised her head and looked at Sigmund seriously.

"Do you want to whore me for nothing?"

"Haha, what's the matter, it's helping each other." Sigmund laughed, he had explained to Ashley the meaning of the word prostitution.

Of course not the original meaning.

"Do you want to prostitute me for nothing?" the female assassin asked again.

"No...no..." In the middle of speaking, Sigmund suddenly closed his mouth, raised his head suddenly, and looked at Ashley in shock.

WC, this woman is speaking Chinese? !

God, in a year's time, in London at the end of the 19th century, of course she could find someone who spoke Chinese.

etc! Sigmund suddenly realized something.

"Do you know what this word means?" he asked in Chinese.

"What do you think?" Ashley replied with a smile on her face.

Hearing this answer, Sigmund's breathing suddenly became rapid.

In the next second, Ashley had already jumped on him, and after hearing the rustling sound, Sigmund's vision was covered in white.

"Bai, it's really white." He sighed sincerely.

"What's next?" Ashley said softly.

"Let's try the second word."

"Let me tell you, it's a verb..."

First Blood, has anyone seen it? Good movie.
