The Journey of the Demon Hunter

A long and thin warrior with a big beard and clad steel armor bends to indicate to Victoria. However, his stiff, alert eyes and serious look do not match his respect. "The queen hopes that I can be her Representative of her, bring her blessings and wishes."

"Please don't be restrained, you are a brave warrior, and the queen's trusted guard, please feel free. Today is a wonderful day, and I hope everyone can feel happy and happy."

The banquet was not like Zelin had seen before, it would start after all the guests arrived. Since the first guest entered the courtyard, the long table has been filled with exquisite food and drinks. Anyone who offers blessings to the newlyweds can come to the table to enjoy. Although the weather is good, the courtyard is full of tall candlesticks, and everything is based on Nord’s banquet habits. But this also satisfied the demon hunter, who had never liked banquets that were too serious and restrained.

"I've heard your name among the servants, and they all said that you are an experienced warrior, with sharp eyes like an eagle, and faster movements than the fiercest snow leopard."

The baroness chatted with Zelin.

"They will praise anyone." Zelin picked up a glass of wine, and any drink seemed to taste very good after being chilled. "As long as it is anyone worthy of praise, those who talk a lot will be said to be good at talking. , A taciturn person..." He raised the glass to a girl with beautiful brown hair passing by. The latter seemed to be taken aback, and hurriedly found a wine glass on the table, but almost knocked it over in a panic." …Will be called calm and steady. Then she knocked the cup down, and the servants would praise in unison, what an energetic girl this is."

"Your words are really merciless." She used her finger to play with her emerald necklace, which was the size of a thumb. The necklace is particularly eye-catching against the shiny, seal-skin top and the checkered belt made of sheepskin.

"So my compliments are always accurate and true. Please, beautiful lady."

"Ha~ Your words are as good as fighting skills."

"If a person walks outside for a long time and has seen many people, then he can learn all kinds of things. A real fighter should not only know how to use weapons, but also how to learn what he doesn’t understand, but sometimes he needs to know how to use weapons. Things."

"Salute to you, warrior, I hope I have the opportunity to see your fighting strength."

"To you too, ma'am."

Zelin drank the wine, and glanced over all the guard soldiers who were arranged calmly. These soldiers were all within the sight of the guests in the courtyard. This made it easy for the demon hunter to notice whether anyone was unknowingly. Assassination. Regardless of whether there is an assassin, if you want to kill Ms. Victoria with a bow and arrow at a long distance, you must avoid the eyes of the guards.

Then he noticed a flaw.

The bard swallowed a few mouthfuls, and then he was busy playing again. The rest of the guests worked hard to gorge themselves, chewing on roast suckling pig, chickens, ducks, fresh fish and shellfish. Dugu City by the sea can provide a rich variety of food for the banquet. The grilled greasy chunks of venison are the most eye-catching. , The meat of the three-tooth seal has been praised by countless people. Among them, the child who eats the most seriously and is far ahead is the silver blood family. People began to praise the silver blood. This child will grow up to become a famous warrior, an honorable Nord.

But all of this has nothing to do with the Brighton people who are thinking about it.

"How long will it take."

Some low and hoarse voices rang in the ears of the Argonians, and the Bretonians didn't know when they came around behind him, making him startled in a cold sweat. I don't know if it's because of being inexplicably circumvented behind him, or the cold voice with almost no emotion. Argonians know who is behind him. Since joining the Dark Brotherhood, she has never failed in any assassination mission. She is an assassin and a mage. Knowing how to silently kill targets with daggers and dark arrows, he is also proficient in illusion, and the victim will not understand that his eyes have deceived them before he dies.

"When the shadow is shortest, the banquet will officially begin... You have wine stains on your chest? What's the matter?"

"Wait for my signal."

There are a few simple words again, and there is no redundant answer.

The Argonians feel that their backs have been wet with cold sweat. Although they are different from humans, they like humid and dark places and water, but this is completely different. If he has nothing to do with the Dark Brotherhood, absolutely Wouldn't be willing to be assassinated by such a person.

After a few seconds, the Yalong people returned to normal, as if nothing had happened, carrying the exquisite food made by gourmets from the Platinum Tower, and walking to the table.

"Just put it here." The woman dressed up like a baron noble waved to the Yalong people. "That gentleman has just left, I think he will be back soon. Please bring us some wine, and he ordered Added ice cubes."

Chapter 275 The Dark Brotherhood

When a variety of alcoholic beverages were on the table, the eyes of the guests lit up and they were more energetic. The gray-haired Kleich found a loyal audience. He was a veteran who had experienced the world war. He was talking about the Battle of the Red Ring and telling him how he fought bravely against the high elves in General Jonah’s army. Matter. He drew a map on the table with meat and bones drenched in sauce, pointed at the west, and explained the strategy aloud.

Zelin stood where there should have been a guard standing guard. According to the plan, there was a guard in this position to prevent someone from sneaking into the heights and assassinating them with bows and arrows, but now, the guard has disappeared. It's like the world has evaporated, disappearing without a trace.

The envoy of the sharp-eyed eagle told the demon hunter that if the dangerous person can be solved secretly, the wedding banquet should not be interrupted. If the Imperial Legion could not even guarantee the safety of Solitary City, or even prevent the killer from sneaking in the courtyard of the Imperial Army headquarters, this would be a big blow to the prestige of the empire in Skyrim.

But the guards still left something-a broken arrow

He squatted down, picked up the arrow, and carefully observed where it broke. Compared with the somewhat grayish color of the arrow itself, which was held for a long time, the broken teeth showed a fresh wood brown. Zelin closed his eyes and he could imagine the scene at that time. An assassin walked around behind the guard, probably when the guard was not paying attention, covered his mouth with one hand and pierced the dagger into the guard's heart.

The heart is a good location for assassination. Compared with cutting the throat, the wound caused by piercing the heart is very small. The guards wear cotton-padded clothes, and the left blood will be absorbed by the cotton-padded clothes. As long as you pay attention to the method of handling the corpse, you can let the blood flow to the corpse. Inside, rather than gushing out like a fountain. With too much blood left, a hound can find the assassin.

The guards were all carrying a quiver behind their backs. This arrow should be broken when the soldier struggled, and then rolled out of the quiver and fell into the gap between the stones in the stone wall. The opponent is a well-trained assassin who will not let the target make any noises, and will not leave any excess blood stains. Zelin is a little puzzled, why none of the other guards on the patrol noticed something wrong. It stands to reason that these outposts can warn each other, but now, these soldiers seem to be blinded.

"Facts have proved that the emperor's retreat strategy is correct. Somo's High Elf army thought that they had taken the imperial capital and won the victory, but in fact they just stepped into the cemetery prepared in advance!"

The voice of the veteran was impassioned, and a chicken ran out of the kitchen, jumped onto the candle holder where the candle was extinguished, and screamed with his head high. The servant's face was blue and white, trying to catch the hen and drive it back, but it only caused another flutter. Everything seemed to become a joyous comedy in Victoria's eyes, and the bride laughed happily.

Zelin continued to investigate the broken arrows, hoping to find more useful clues. But at this moment, a faint, imperceptible sound rang.

It was faint, so faint that it seemed to be just an auditory hallucination in the ears of a demon hunter. He believed that the only sound in the world that could be weaker than this was the footsteps of cats. However, there was a vigilance in Zelin's heart, and this vigilance allowed him to come to another world alive, instead of becoming a bone in a monster's lair decades ago.

So he followed the feeling in his heart and swung his sword.

The blade hit something in the air, and the steel arrow was split in half in the air and fell to the ground.

There was nothing around, Zelin, according to the clues in the air, slashed his backhand to his side.

A blood arrow spurted from the position where the blade passed, and the flame enchantment on the long sword burned a hole in the lightweight tights and burned the skin below. A black figure jumped a few steps afterwards, trying to get away from the demon hunter, but Zelin's long sword quickly approached.

The taste of wine.

There are two more silver lights in the dark shadow. It is the sharp blade reflecting the sun’s rays. The two one-handed swords meet the attacking blade. They are as fast as lightning and silent like a rock. Both sides don’t need much. In other words, any negligence may lead to failure. The blade pierced the air, and the air was full of the flames of the collision of the sword and the light reflected by the blade.

An assassin is an assassin, and Zelin knows how to deal with these people who are good at assassination. His defense was not leaking, and his two one-handed swords wielded like a windmill in the hands of the assassin, but this windmill hit the rock wall. The fierce offensive lasted more than ten seconds, and the assassin stepped back and threw a bottle of crimson potion from his sleeve.

"I know who you are."

Zelin ignored the potion bottle in mid-air, but turned the blade in an arc. He knew that position. The smell of wine that had been spilled on the assassin before guided the sword of the demon hunter. The scene in front of him is always true and false. Sometimes his eyes will suddenly plunge into darkness, and the assassin will not even make a footstep. It must be a spell that can obscure the target's sight and hide his own voice.

But she couldn't get rid of the smell on her body.

She concealed it well, with the cloak that seemed to eliminate her sense of existence, she was indeed a qualified assassin, and she could even be called a very good one, but it was a pity that she encountered a fighting skill that was not weaker than her, and her age and The experience far exceeds her demon hunter. Zelin knows how to use a person's actions and appearance to judge the heart, or purpose, and find a suspicious person.

The assassin made a gesture, and Zelin's vision noticed an Argonian like him rushing over here. This must be her internal response in the banquet.

Three actions, only three. The sword blade opened the opponent's two swords, and he slammed the Brighton girl's temple with his forearm studded with silver studs. The Argonian’s dagger pierced the demon hunter’s back, but it was soon surprised to find that Zelin’s fist was just a flicker, and within the blink of an eye, he had rushed to the Argonian’s back, and his The sword hissed, screamed in the air, and made a cut in the temple of the Argonian wearing a brass gown.

"Run away!"

Injuries to the temples and the corners of the eyes made the Argonians dizzy, just as an assassin used a spell to affect the sight of a demon hunter. The accomplice drew the sword and jumped over, but he failed to make any effective attacks. The Demon Hunter slashed a sword vigorously from top to bottom on his chest, and then used the strength of this sword to slash the second sword from bottom to top, drawing a blood-red cross on it.

It only took forty seconds to meet the assassin from Zelin. When the Yalong fell to the ground, he finally attracted the attention of the surrounding guards.

"What is this? What happened? There are assassins?"

The four guards trot over and looked at the Argonians and Zelin who fell on the ground in amazement. They knew the demon hunters.

"Don't worry, just found the assassin." Zelin walked to the side of the stone wall. There were blood stains on the edge of the wall. The demon hunter's sword made a sword wound on the opponent's abdomen. This should be the trace left by the opponent's scratching when he fled. "Look for a corpse. One of your colleagues may have been poisoned." He pointed. Pointing to the Argonians on the ground, "He is not dead yet, you deal with it."

"Do you want to warn and terminate the wedding?"

"You go to the envoy and tell him that you found two assassins, one lying here, one escaped. As for what to do, let him decide." Zelin put away the sword and shook his head. "I hope I am here. The seats at the banquet have not been removed by the servants."

Chapter 276: Skyrim Tumor

When the sun sets, the candlelight gradually overwhelms the lighting provided by the sun, and the wedding banquet comes to a perfect end. The pile of food-eaten plates is even higher than a person. This is a successful banquet and a banquet that makes everyone satisfied. It was getting dark, and the guests got up to say goodbye one after another. The day's episode did not affect the banquet. In fact, few people know what happened during the day.

"The little game you taught me is so interesting, and its name, Gwent card, what is the pronunciation of that ancient language? I hope to be able to share this with my colleagues in the court of Queen Alicia One fun."
