Chapter 389 Ambush
Woolte Stone Forest, a unique place composed of strange peaks and rocks. Looking down from the sky, it is full of grotesque stone mountains and intricate paths, leading to unknown places.
With Oscar leading the way, Allen was spared the trouble, but in reality, his heart was always uneasy.
Allen had always prided himself on his calm and cautious personality, but he never expected that when truly faced with temptation, his so-called calmness and caution would become a joke.
Allen couldn't imagine how he would play two roles simultaneously, after accepting these two seemingly identical tasks, in order to earn double the reward! Especially since Albian had instructed him to avoid revealing his identity as a member of the Assassin's Guild in front of members of the clergy, so as not to attract unnecessary trouble.
With this uneasy feeling, the two quickly found the stone cave hidden deep within the stone valley.
Walking into the stone cave, Allen easily saw four masked figures through his Darkvision talent. They were cloaked in black, their faces covered with bronze masks, and lurking in the darkness. Oscar took the initiative to step forward and made a series of dazzling gestures, completing the identity verification. Then, in a silent atmosphere, the two found a dark corner to sit down, cautiously watching everything around them with scrutinizing eyes.
After silently confronting the surrounding figures for two or three magical hours, three more figures arrived one after another. Finally, as the sky outside gradually brightened, one of the figures leaning against the back wall of the stone cave slowly stood up.
"Thank you for your hard work, everyone. I hope this cooperation will be completed happily."
This was the only person in the cave who did not conceal his identity, and also the person Allen had been secretly watching. Now, as his handsome and delicate elven face slowly lifted, appearing in Allen's field of vision, it seemed to indicate that he was the initiator of this mission.
"There's no need to guess my identity, just as I won't care who you all are. I only ask that you do your best to complete the task. After this mission, we will not meet again."
"The assembly time has passed, let's set off!"
Allen was a little surprised. It sounded like the other party was not from the Temple of Nature. He secretly glanced at Oscar, but found no flaws. It was as if Oscar himself was an existence who had accepted a mission from the Assassin's Guild. This made Allen's heart beat faster again.
Without any introductions or greetings, it seemed that passing the elf's verification was enough. Allen didn't know if the other party was aware of his dual identity. Until the other party issued the order to move forward, his heart was still hanging in the air.
However, how could Allen know how powerful the Assassin's Guild's intelligence was? The identities of almost every member who joined the Assassin's Guild had been accurately grasped by them. Therefore, when they recruited Allen into the guild, his relationship with the Oak Church, his connection with Oscar, and so on, were all things they were well aware of.
And after Homyel took the liberty of including Allen in the mission this time, during the few days Allen was waiting, he had informed the other collaborators about the additional manpower sent by their church. After all, assassinating a demigod was such an important matter that every candidate was carefully selected, otherwise, even a slight leak would lead to an uncontrollable situation.
Therefore, the mission posted by the Assassin's Guild seemed to be open to all members, but in fact, everyone who knew about this mission had been carefully screened by them.
So, from the beginning, Allen's worries were unnecessary. He was just lucky enough to receive the same mission from two channels.
The cave was deep and long. The further Allen went, the less clear his vision became. In the passage shrouded in darkness, the strong individuals used their respective skills to move forward, until a faint light began to appear in the distance, and everyone stopped.
"The target will pass through the Stone Forest at some point today to return to his tribe. Everyone's time is limited, so you need to be focused."
"The spellcasters should focus on entangling and restricting the target, and you can control which specific spells you cast. At the same time that the spellcasters' spells take effect, the warriors must not hold back. Use your strongest moves…"
After all, they were cooperating with unfamiliar people, so the elf still had to give a few instructions. Although he himself knew very well that the real killing blow was not from the people in front of him from the beginning, they were not useless either. Otherwise, wouldn't it be a great waste to spend so much effort?
The elf's arrangement was simple. As soon as he finished speaking, a pure and flawless crystal ball appeared in his hand. Accompanied by a series of rhythmic chants, the crystal ball he held in his palm gradually emitted a faint blue glow.
Allen was no longer a newbie, but it was also the first time he had witnessed the other party's methods. According to the scene in front of him and the collection of various knowledge in his mind, Allen could roughly guess that the other party was casting the most magical divination spell.
Various images gradually appeared and disappeared in the crystal ball in an instant. At least, Allen's eyesight couldn't see the mysteries in it, but the elf who was casting the spell was focused, and a bit of understanding gradually appeared on his face. It seemed that he had obtained useful information.
"The target is still 3 magical hours away from the Stone Forest. Everyone, get ready."
The elf, who was concentrating on pouring information into the crystal, slowly spoke out the real-time intelligence obtained after the divination spell was successful. Then, without looking up, he continued to stare at the constantly changing crystal, and fine beads of sweat gradually seeped out from his cheeks. It seemed that the consumption of this spell was not as simple as the weak effect it showed.
Allen closed his eyes, and a long sword appeared in his hand at some point, and he slowly began to sharpen it. Allen himself didn't remember which unlucky guy he had seized this two-handed greatsword from. This time, in order not to expose his identity, he didn't even use the Bone Cleaver. The dazzling protective gear such as the Iceheart Armguards were also tightly wrapped by his self-cultivating black windbreaker.
Even because he was worried that the combat windbreaker might be damaged during the battle, Allen also wrapped an extra layer of armor on his armguards and leather armor, even though it was a bit cumbersome, it could achieve both protection and concealment.
Taking advantage of the gap in sharpening the sword, Allen seized the time to familiarize himself with the two-handed greatsword in his hand, at least he thought that he could exert enough power with the heavy sword in the upcoming battle.
This chapter was rushed out today. Chinese New Year visits and visiting relatives always disrupt plans. Please understand!!
