A peerless killer possessing a cat girl assassin from another world
Chapter 122 Ambush
Two days until the celebration begins.
Starting from today, the atmosphere of the celebration has completely heated up.
Wealthy businessmen from home and abroad gathered in the city of Melbourne, and it was rare for the nobles and dignitaries of the Dorok Kingdom to gather together.
"Miss Sophia, the Duke has not arrived yet." Reina said to Sophia.
"This is normal. My father always plans his itinerary and tries his best to stay in the north until the end and arrive on the last day before the celebration."
If it hadn't been such an important day as the founding celebration of the People's Republic of China, my father would not have left the north.
However, if the father has not arrived on the last day, it means that the enemy's plan worked and successfully delayed the father halfway, preventing him from catching up with the celebration.
That would be the worst case scenario.
Before setting off, Sophia had already tried to get in touch with her father, but there was still no news from the servant who delivered the letter. It seemed that the enemy had blocked news in the city.
In Melbourne now, there is only room for entry and no room for exit.
......
Dorok Kingdom, on the outskirts of Duff Village.
A convoy was moving slowly, and the ones pulling the cart were not the common Dorok horses, but two sub-dragons.
This is a species unique to the North, Coleman's Dragon.
"Colman" means "carriage driver" in the ancient northern language.
However, the Coleman dragon is not as ugly and brutal as its close relatives. After long-term domestication by the northerners, it has become extremely docile, and its natural good looks are also popular among humans.
Although it is difficult to imagine that this cold-blooded animal would be domesticated by the people of the North and become a mount.
But this is the fact. It is as common for people in the north to raise this kind of big lizard as it is for people in the south to raise horses, and in the ice and snow, the cold-resistant dragon is obviously more advantageous.
It's just that the cost of raising it is a little high. After all, horses eat grass, while this big lizard eats meat.
At this time, the two dragons were pulling the carriage forward slowly.
In addition to the carriage, there is also a group of well-equipped soldiers behind it. The flag raised by the flag-bearer at the front has a pattern of the mighty sub-dragon species, which is somewhat similar to the Coleman dragon pulling the carriage. , is the symbol of the Northern Territory.
With such a posture, the people in the car must not be ordinary people.
He is wearing a military uniform that fits him as if it has grown on his body. His eyes are as bright as fire and he is calm and intimidating. Time has not left many traces on the man's body. He looks like he is in his thirties, but his face shows no signs of vicissitudes. Instead, he has the traces of many years. The killing spirit gained from fighting on the battlefield.
Gustav Campbell, this is the man's name, the master of the Northern Territory, the current head of the Campbell family, and Sophia's father.
However, at home and abroad, they prefer to call him "Northern Duke".
At this time, Gustave was concentrating on reading a book. There were still two days before the celebration started. At the current speed, he could arrive before the start.
A figure gradually emerged from the window next to it, which was the accompanying captain of the guard: "Sir, the convoy has arrived at Duff Village and is expected to arrive at Mhalla Town before dark."
"Well, stop here."
"Yes, stop the car and rest where you are!" the guard captain greeted.
The dragon driver stopped the carriage, Gustav put down the book in his hand and stepped out of the carriage.
There have been reports before that very egregious missing persons cases have occurred in Tafu Port and surrounding villages. The Tafu Port Port is partly run and managed by members of the Campbell family, bringing various additional supplies to the north. However, what happened here He didn't know anything about it, and he didn't receive the news until the case was solved.
Dafu Village is also the hardest hit area. There are only ten people in the entire village. They are all temporarily living in Tafu Port because even if they return to the village, it will be difficult for such a small number of villagers to survive.
In just a few months, the village was overgrown with grass and dilapidated.
Gustav was walking on the road in the village, with only the captain of the guard behind him.
Suddenly, several arrows flew towards the two of them.
"Sir, be careful!" The guard captain reacted quickly, immediately raised his shield in front of Gustav, and deflected the arrows.
But the opponent seemed to have expected this, and several more spears flew from the other direction.
The guard captain had no time to turn.
However, this attack was obviously not enough in front of the king-level Gustav.
Gustav didn't even move when an ice wall instantly rose up beside him. The ice wall was so hard that the spear couldn't penetrate even half of it before it fell to the ground.
Before it was over, there was only a "crunching" sound, and a group of undead creatures, numbering in the thousands, walked out of the abandoned houses one after another.
Mainly composed of skeleton soldiers, the arrows shot just now were shot by the skeleton archers standing on the roof.
In addition to archers, there are also a large number of skeleton warriors holding various weapons, some of whom even wear heavy armor. I really don't know how several skeletons can support that kind of weight.
The keen-eyed guard captain also discovered that among the thousands of undead creatures, there were still a few skeleton mages hiding, providing benefits to their companions.
"My lord!" the guard captain approached Gustav and asked for instructions.
Gustave pulled out his sword and slashed back in the direction of his return. The sword energy was carried by the cold wind and brought up ice spikes, knocking away the skeleton soldiers on the path, revealing a path.
"Hoffman, go back and inform the soldiers, leave this to me."
"Yes!" Hoffman held up his shield and rushed in the direction of the way out. The skeleton that was just about to form an encirclement again was knocked away again.
This was a premeditated attack. The opponent knew that he would stop in Duff Village. The reason was that he would definitely pay attention to this place because of the previous missing persons case. So it is self-evident who the opponent is. It is to block the news. of those people.
And using the human wave tactic to drag him here, his purpose is also obvious-someone does not want him to participate in the celebration.
In other words, someone wanted to cause trouble during the celebration, that is, to assassinate the king.
In just one moment, the Northern Duke figured everything out.
At that moment, countless skeletons just surrounded Gustav, and no one launched another attack.
The skeletons that had been scattered by the ice spikes were reassembled with a strange green light.
If they don't move, Gustav can't be idle. Since he has already made some guesses, breaking the siege as soon as possible and going to the royal capital to rescue them has naturally become the first priority at this time.
I saw Gustav flying up to the roof, cutting off several archers, and then he was about to jump out of the encirclement.
But Gustav immediately saw something was wrong.
A barrier?
Different from the temporary barrier constructed during the attack on the foreign hotel, the barrier in Duff Village was fully prepared and huge in scale, covering several miles in radius. If the boundary anchors were not found and completely destroyed, then even the entire barrier would be destroyed. Not even a bird can fly out.
