When Reno nodded in understanding, "That's it," Nia continued enthusiastically.

"This is the magic rune used in the portable flashlight I am currently developing, which although greatly reduces the amount of magic, produces a very high brightness."

"Awesome!" Nia smiled proudly, "By the way, my attributes are-"

"Sir, although you like to talk, we should continue the investigation." Keping interrupted Nia who was talking.

Nia replied somewhat boredly: "Okay." Then turned around and continued moving forward, while Renault narrowed his eyes and looked at Keping. However, there was no use saying anything to them now, so Reno turned to Nia.

"Although this light is very powerful, the light will attract monsters. Moreover, such a bright light makes it difficult to see the surroundings. Turn it off."

Nia expressed dissatisfaction with Renault's words, but obediently crumpled the paper and handed it to him. The light immediately disappeared and darkness fell again.

In an instant, a black figure appeared in the darkness. It cut through the trees at high speed, heading straight for Nia. Renault jumped forward and kicked with his right leg. There was a sound of a hard object breaking, and the black shadow was knocked away.

"Hey! What happened?" Nia looked around blankly, and so did Keping, but he covered Nia. Renault confirmed Keping's movement, then looked down at his right foot. There was a scratch on the pants.

"Sure enough, hardening is the right choice." Renault breathed a sigh of relief and enhanced his perception.

"It's really troublesome." The black figure just now, the person dressed in black, felt similar auras around several others, and there were quite a lot of them, and they were chasing them from behind.

Renault judged that it was very difficult to protect two people while fighting at the same time, so he patted Keping on the shoulder and shouted: "Stand up!"

Kaiping panicked and helped Nia stand up.

"Their target is Nia." Renault said to Kaiping, who nodded in understanding.

"I'll protect your rear. You run!" Renault pushed Keping.

"Okay!" Kaiping hugged Nia and started running.

Nia asked in a panic, "Where's Reno!?" But he seemed to understand the situation without struggling. Renault turned his back to the two men who were running up the mountain, and turned to face the enemy. The enemies in sight are all men wearing black clothes and turbans.

These men in black quickly shuttled between the trees and pounced on Renault at the same time with skilled coordination. There are four enemies within sight, and the presence of other enemies can still be felt from behind.

Therefore, Renault focuses on the reaction to the first attack. The four people jumped at the same speed without hesitation, trying to swing the knife at Renault.

But in an instant, Renault disappeared from sight. The next moment there was a strange sound of "Crack!" The speed in front of Renault was shocking enough, but he calmly turned his attention to the direction of the strange sound.

One of the four people, the man in black standing at the edge, was already dead. His head was grabbed by Renault, and his bones were easily broken. It was obvious that his face was facing the wrong direction.

The most frightening thing is that Renault stands there in such a natural posture, as if he is part of the natural scenery, which is terrifying.

Renault noticed that the surrounding activities had stopped, and he breathed a sigh of relief, because the enemy's attention was focused on him.

"If you want to kill someone, of course you must also have the consciousness to be killed, right?" He said with a grin. Under the moonlight between the clouds, a crazy scene formed.

However, contrary to Project Reno, there is still a shadow moving.

Renault was the first to notice its presence, threw the body in his hands like garbage, and jumped up. He caught the shadow trying to pass through the trees and threw it to the ground.

However, the guy dodged gracefully while throwing several knives at Reno in the air. Renault easily flicked away every flying knife with his fingers, and the two faced off against each other in battle.

"Are you Lloyd?" Renault asked through the strong aura he felt.

"Go to hell." Lloyd didn't answer the question, but acted quickly. He jumps at Raynor, but Raynor easily catches Lloyd again...

Then, Lloyd disappeared. Leno's right hand passed through the air without any hindrance. Next, the moonlight illuminated Renault's figure, and Lloyd revealed his upper body from the shadow and stabbed Renault's left foot with a knife.

However, the moment the knife pierced his pants, it bounced away. Everyone around them thought that Lloyd would end the fight quickly, and Lloyd himself did not expect to be bounced away by the opponent's body, so he froze in shock.

His arm was grabbed by Raynor, dragged out and smashed to the ground.

"Pfft!" he gasped. Then Reno grabbed him in the face.

"If you make a move, I'll kill this guy."

Lloyd was pinned to the ground and heard the sound of his bones crunching.

"Don't, don't move!" Lloyd shouted, seeming to realize something. But then, his eyes became cunning.

"What's wrong?"

"We are assassins? It doesn't matter if our companions are dead. Hey, why do you think we haven't left here?" Lloyd kept asking questions.

"Don't you think our goal is to deal with 'that person'?"

"What are you talking about!" Just when Renault was about to say it, doubts suddenly came to his mind. As much as he wanted to deny it, logic constructed a puzzle of its own in his brain.

Why do you know they want to stay here?

Why do we know the exact location of Nia?

Is it because the moment the dazzling light disappeared, only those accustomed to fighting could detect the moving figure?

the answer is negative.

It was impossible to see him.

Know the possibilities from the start.

"Damn it!" Reno dropped Lloyd and started running.

Keping sprinted through the jungle until he was so tired that he put Nia down, and they ran a long way.

Nia asked Kaiping worriedly: "Are you okay?" At the same time, he checked to the rear that no one seemed to be chasing him.

"Great, we managed to escape."

"Yeah, it looks like that."

"But I don't know why, why would someone target me, and what are they going to do!" Nia stopped. He didn't notice that the grass started to grow from his waist, and there was a cliff further on.

"It's really dangerous, Kaiping. If we run any further, we both will fall. We're lucky." Despite what happened, Nia still looked back at Kaiping with a smile.

"No, sir, it's not because of luck." Kaiping adjusted his glasses with his fingers, his eyes cold and merciless.

"Kepin? What's wrong?" Nia asked, tilting her head without any doubt.

Kaiping took a step and approached Nia. His movement was so natural that Nia didn't feel any uneasiness at all, and was gently pushed down by Kaiping.

"Goodbye, sir." Nia couldn't understand. She just felt that she lost the touch of the ground under her feet. The body floated gently, and then felt the gravity pulling downwards.

He didn't make any screams. Quietly, only the sound of breaking wind accompanied his fall. Kaiping stood there, slowly looking down at the darkness below. Although he could not see clearly, the moonlight was also blocked by clouds.
