quicksilver blood

Chapter 439
"If the Cuizhi River goes further east... this should be Li Sailuo."

Duoduo's bright red pupils trembled slightly, and he murmured, "I don't know what Master Roland is going to do."

It has been a week since he accepted Roland's order from Farina without hesitation, and traveled eastward to spread the plague.

Duoduo made full use of his undead advantage, and didn't stop for a minute to rest along the way. Therefore, although his speed was not fast, and he took the time to spread the plague on all the cities he passed, he didn't waste much time.

He pulled his hood down, covering most of his face, and walked towards Richero's city gate.

And when Duoduo was about to approach here, he clearly felt that the atmosphere here seemed to be a bit wrong.

It's not that it's dead silent or chaotic, but that the faces of the people here are full of sadness.

Even when they spoke, they kept their voices very low, and there were almost no smiles on their faces, and any smiles were fleeting.A solemn and heavy feeling filled the whole city.

This feeling is actually quite weird.It was as if the surrounding colors had faded to black and white, and the sound had become indistinct.At this moment, Richero gave people the illusion that he had fallen into an illusion.

But if you say that they are suffering from being enslaved by the lord here, there is no haze of being bullied on their faces, and there is no emptiness and despair in their eyes.If anything, that feeling is closer to the faint but unforgettable sadness when a loved one dies.

But why are so many people so sad?Is it because the lord here is dead?

...then he is really welcome.

Just when Duoduo was in a tangled state, he suddenly felt that he had bumped into someone.

It was a short man wearing leather armor and a short sword at his waist.He has clean and neat short brown hair, an expressionless face, and his eyes are lowered in obedience. He is an ordinary person who looks completely inconspicuous.

Duoduo's heart skipped a beat.

What made him feel vigilant was that he was completely unaware that there was someone in front of him before he actually bumped into it.This person is like a black hole, and in Duoduo's perception range is nothingness.It is impossible to notice him with the naked eye.

In terms of Duoduo's perception attributes, it is absolutely impossible for stalkers below the silver rank to approach him to this extent.

This is by no means something that ordinary stalkers can do.

For a person who has mastered shadows and stealth to such a degree, if he is only good at stalking but not good at assassination, Duo Duo can almost laugh out loud.

Shadow Dancer...

Duoduo frowned slightly.

This is the only stalker who has refined the way of shadow to this level.

On the road to assassination, the only shadow dancer is a professional branch that specializes in stealth and shadow tricks.And what appeared in front of Duoduo was a shadow dancer who was silver at the very least, and might even have reached the gold rank.

How could such a small city have such a strong man?
"Excuse me, what is your name?"

Watching Duoduo turn his gaze over, the completely inconspicuous man lowered his eyes and murmured in an indistinct voice: "Your instructor asked me to take you to a place. Please prepare a little normal attire... Don't reveal your identity."

Suddenly, Duoduo suddenly realized.

It seems that this person is the person His Highness Roland arranged for him to meet.

So Duoduo understood, took off his hood neatly, and followed that man step by step, obediently without saying a word, and with his back straight.

Suddenly, Duoduo changed from a hunched and gloomy dwarf priest who couldn't see his expression clearly into a cute boy with a somewhat indifferent expression.Although it attracts more eyes, it doesn't have the kind of eyes full of malice and suspicion.

Obviously, even if this man had the authority to lead Duoduo directly into Richero bypassing the faction detection gate, but according to Duoduo's weird attire before, they could easily be blocked by other inspectors.

Fortunately, nothing unexpected happened along the way.Soon the two bypassed the crowd and walked into an empty alley.

"That... sir?" At this moment, Duoduo finally couldn't help asking, "Did something happen in this city? Did the lord die?"

"more than."

The man walking in front of Duoduo didn't stop, he didn't even intend to turn his head, he just murmured in front of him: "It wasn't just him who died. His Excellency the Marquis also died... a very serious incident happened here before." Accident. Many people died."

The man spoke with a distinct Caral dialect, his strong nasal voice made his voice blurred, and the overall word order was a little out of order.It was very difficult to understand every word in his words.

So Duoduo paused for a while, digested the content of the words, and then asked: "What kind of accident? Who caused it? How large? Is there anything to pay attention to?"

"It was the big explosion caused by the cultists and the subsequent massacre. Counting the missing persons in the early stage, the dead were close to 1000. The murderer was a tall man wearing an iron mask and using a Caral military-style slashing sword. "

After the man walking in front of Duoduo finished speaking, he suddenly turned around and stared closely at Duoduo with those seemingly empty and cold light brown pupils.Whenever his pupils fluttered, it made Duoduo think of snakes standing upright and cheetahs lurking-this level of ominousness and danger.

"Remember. The eldest lady's father—that is, the beloved Marquis of Saya was killed by the man in the iron mask. When you see them later, don't mention it."

The man's voice was cold and soft, more like a whisper than a threat or an admonition.But Duoduo felt a cold and sharp breath slowly sliding against his skin, which made his hair stand on end.

For the first time dealing with such an outstanding assassin, Duoduo said that he was under a lot of pressure.

but……

"The Marquis of Saya? The Marquis of the Poet?"

Faced with many questions, the assassin pursed his lips and nodded silently.

He is actually here? !Is it because of persecution?

Duoduo was a little surprised.

He also knows some inside information.I heard that there was a major problem within the Druid Sect. It is said that the nature of the problem is quite serious, and the crime of betrayal has been passed at the sage meeting.In this case, no matter what status these people had before, once they were caught, they would be sentenced to death by crucifixion.

The souls of sinners crucified on the cross will not enter the underworld and the kingdom of God, nor will they wander in the world.Their souls were crucified in the same state as they were at the moment of death.If the wooden cross is chopped, they will pay for the pain of cutting the soul, and the pain will be eternal.

Duoduo is also a believer himself, so he naturally knows what kind of cruel energy believers will explode when facing the heresy of apostasy.

Heretics are far more hateful than heretics.If the poet Marquis was exiled for this reason, it seems that his death was not simply "killed by heretics".

But that's enough for now.Duoduo didn't want to know too much.

Compared to this matter, he cared more that Roland's plan did not go to waste because of Richero's turmoil——

"Duoduo... yeah, it's the first time we meet."

At this moment, Duoduo heard a gentle and gentle male voice. Duoduo raised his head and saw a middle-aged man with a shining soul standing beside the railing looking at him with a smile on the second floor of the Marquis Mansion.

And behind him, a girl with long pink curly hair like a puppet sitting quietly on a chair also looked over, showing the same gorgeous smile as Roland.

"Nice meeting, Dodo. Let me introduce myself, I'm Helga."

The girl stood up gracefully, saluted Duoduo shallowly, and then said: "Helga Saya. The daughter of the Marquis of Saya in the past, the Marquis of Saya in the present, and the future Queen of Caral."

The corner of Duoduo's mouth twitched slightly.

He felt that he seemed to be involved in some trouble.
