Pivot of the Sky

The assassination of Grussia was sudden, and no one had thought of it before. The time and place of the assassination were not the occasion for the celebration of the festivities in the city state, but the guards around Grussia were also the tightest and could not be arranged beforehand. Not a good chance of assassination for tomorrow night.

When the ceremony was over, Grussia stayed overnight in Nipple City State and took a western drive to Kish City State the following morning, where General Darius would wait for him. Of course, the governor of the city of Nipple will send them, and the city will hold a grand ceremony. The local military and political dignitaries will follow King Jurussia out of the city. Outside the city, there are also people kneeling down to worship the power of King Jurussia.

The guards had already guarded outside the gates of the city to prevent assassins from mixing up with the happy crowd. Even with the assassins, it was very unlikely that they would be able to break through the heavy escort and approach Jurus. Suspicious people and others would be solved before they could get close.

So it happened suddenly when King Grussia came out of the city, when everyone was most relaxed. At that time, military officials in Nipple State were lined up in the city with drivers, while the Guard Dependency, which opened the way for the Great of Grussia, had arrived outside the city, and Grussia's drivers had just passed through the city gate.

It was almost impossible to assassinate, because Grussia was in the city gate, and there were heavy guards on the city floor, and there were clusters of masters in the front and back, inside and outside the city, but only one arrow was fired.

The arrow was fired from within the city, and the shooter stood in the crowd looking out of the city at Jurussian Emperor's car. If Amon saw it, it would be a giant, black arrow carved in a magical pattern. An arrow fired an appalling sound with a mountain shouting like a tsunami, drawing a parabolic line in the air across the convoy of officials and shooting towards the city gate hole. The giant arrows flew through the air, carrying horrific shockwaves, passing with people hovering over the ground.

The arrows were fired from behind, which all expected, according to general experience, if an assassin really wanted to assassinate Jurussia, it would only be plain to lie outside the city. But the guards around Gürus were well trained and not panicked by this arrow. Countless swordsmen crossed to the sky, and the magicians carried out all sorts of magic, securing the inner gate of the city.

The arrow gathered powerful energy and struck several swords in the air, pausing several times still shooting forward at undiminished speeds, almost exactly as was the case when Virgin Isis was assassinated. But this arrow is so powerful that it cannot penetrate the protections laid down by the magicians. Unexpectedly, the arrow did not shoot at Curus, folding up at the last minute, hitting the wall just above the city gate, only hearing a loud noise, the whole city building collapsed!

It is necessary to introduce the West Gate of Nipple State, with its thick walls underneath which is a city gate hole and above which is a city building that looks sturdy and magnificent and brand new. When Sinah attacked Nipple State, the gate was destroyed by a stone thrower and the city building was set on fire.

Later, although the gates were repaired, the defense function was simply restored. After receiving news of the arrival of King Gürus, local military and political officials urgently recruited civilians and craftsmen to repair two magnificent city buildings, the East Gate and the West Gate, as they were the venues to greet and greet King Gürus.

The West Tower was completed just days before the arrival of King Grussia and was built night after night. Of course, the city guard and the magician were there to supervise the construction, to prevent the artisans from stealing the materials or moving other hands and feet, and even every floor of brick had to be inspected, and no one expected anything to go wrong with the city building.

But there is a trap in the city building, laid by the hand on the night of the month of the assassination. Without following Queen Samir on the border next month night, they left Assyria early to reach Poz's new province, where they somehow blended into the builders of the city.

Nipple is a city recently occupied by Potts, and most of its inhabitants have also been displaced from the outside world by Sinah. The Potts occupation forces were unfamiliar with the local population, and the urgent convening of craftsmen to build the city building could only result in rigorous body searches and scrutiny, which could not be verified individually for the identity of the craftsmen, which gave them the opportunity for tomorrow night.

This trap is very hidden. It has a strange coincidence with the trap Enrique encountered back then. After the completion of the city building, even the great magician will not find any abnormality in detecting the magic sweep. The power needed to detonate this trap is very powerful, and it has to be very ingenious. People who don't know what's going on will not react to this trap even if they use a catapult to destroy the city building.

Archers are not Semir, but the moon itself that sets the trap. When that black magic arrow fell into the hole of the gate in the air, a bright light wrapped around the arrow, like it had been wrapped around a bright snake and turned flat to shoot at the city building, which Doomz helped.

You can see two fine rows of stone bricks above the gates simultaneously turned into quicksand shattered ends, just like being cut open with a knife, with a terrible huge crack. Support structures like this are not afraid of cracks in a few stones, but of sudden sliding displacements of structures that connect together.

And the trap set by the moon night is hidden, it didn't make all the stone bricks in both cracks fall to pieces, just through the energy impact of the giant arrow, instantly cracking the two masonry pieces deep in the city wall, then under the huge self-weight pressure of the city building, the city gate hole will collapse, and Jurussia just passed by, the calculation is not necessarily subtle.

An arrow was fired at the end of the next moon night, and he saw the city collapse. He didn't even look at it. He jumped out loud and turned around and flew away. His mission has been accomplished and his assassins have been exposed, naturally travelling thousands of miles. The main guards of Nipple City were all around the West Gate, and he ran east. Masters are busy escorting him at the moment, and ordinary guards can't stop him.

If someone else, tomorrow night, is enough to solve the problem, how could King Curtis be so easily assassinated? At the moment of the collapse of the city building, the screams and roars were echoed, countless rays of light rose, the space was like being condensed, the carriage of Grussian suddenly split apart, two great magicians raised their staff, and several large warrior clusters embraced him who had rushed out of the city.

Behind them, there was smoke, and the entire city building collapsed completely, not burying Grussia. But the other guards next to the great emperor were less fortunate, at least dozens of them had not been able to escape and were smashed into meat sauce on the spot, and the falling rubble injured many of the convoys inside and outside the city.

Although uninjured, Grussian was also a wretch, abandoning his carriage and rushing out of town. Only five of the city's best men guarded him from danger, while the other guards were buried in the collapsed city building.

The scene was in turmoil, and there was a scream in and out of Nipple City, and someone shouted: "Curus is dead!” And those close to the gates fled, and even the vigilante guards could not restrain themselves.

The guard captain next to Grussia drank his sword high and pressed all the voices: “The Great Emperor is safe, watch out for assassins, no confusion! ”

Immediately after a dozen shadows flew halfway into the sky, Grussian guard warfare and half the masters had left the city to open the road, and at this moment the magicians turned to fly over the city building. The assassin appeared in the city, and tomorrow night had escaped, but another man flew high, wearing a black robe and holding a staff, came like a hawk, waving several scrolls.

The scroll consumes more than the user's own power, but it also requires the user to control its range of attack. Accurate targeting is much harder than random throwing, and controlling two reels is more than twice as difficult as controlling one reel, and the more powerful the reel, the more so.

But this man threw out six high-order attack reels at the same time, and the target firmly locked the guards who had just flushed out of the smoke, almost all at the same time, and the assassin was Faust.

Faust's flying into the sky and throwing the scroll exposed himself to all the attention he had drawn to it, and he was doing it so desperately. At the same time as the scroll flew out, he could not escape immediately. He had to control the direction of the attack after the scroll had unfolded. Otherwise, the target could not be locked. He had to bite his teeth and wave his staff, adding several magic shields to himself.

Halfway through the sky, the arrows on the ground were like rain, striking almost all of Faust in the air. The arrows fired by ordinary samurai at high altitude were not dangerous, but the arrows fired by the elite samurai around Grussia were astonishing and contained a wide variety of weapons, including axes, flagpoles, shotguns, samurai swords, etc. - some were not accompanied by bows and arrows and simply cut out the weapons in their hands.

Shockwaves of all kinds of sounds and energy eruptions scattered, fragments of all kinds of weapons spinning around in the air, close to the ground was full of smoke, light and flames, and seven or eight people fell from the air with a scream. These magicians were not inescapable when the scroll broke out, but they had to defend King Grussia on the ground and die to block the attack.

The magic shield outside Faust's circumference was also broken almost instantaneously, and the black robe on his body was shredded to reveal a white blouse. His mouth sprayed with blood and his staff fell down. He was swept up by the swelling power and flew far into the city. At that time, a beacon flew out, turning into a horrible python in the air, wrapped around Faust's body and lasered out towards the north.

Doomz took the seriously injured Faust away, but the experts around Grussia had no time to chase him, because this is exactly the time when the Poz Emperor was truly assassinated!

The change took place too quickly and the scene was too chaotic. First, the city building collapsed, and Grussian abandoned his car and rushed out of the city. Except for a few masters around him, the closest guards on both sides of the car were killed. The collapsed city building also cut his convoy into two sections, with no response at the end. The people travelling were shocked and shouted. The people in the city did not know what was going on outside the city, much less what was happening outside the city.

Faust fell out of the sky and threw out the scroll in chaos, instantly another fierce eruption, not to mention the magician who had just flew up into the sky fell a piece, the samurai close to the city gate were also a man who backed up, only the light flashed in front of him, and there was only a buzzing echo in his ears.

Tomorrow night was an arrow fired in the city, Faust also flew out of the city, attracting all the attention of the guards outside the city, the guards rushed to the direction of the city gate to escort the driver, the magicians also turned to take out the staff, the reaction had quickly flown up half the sky, the guard in the direction outside the city for a moment relaxed, and King Grussia himself turned to the top of the city building.

Samir finally made his move as Faust flew out injured. The queen was dressed in dilapidated clothes and the robe was very generous with patches, like a slightly sloppy poor woman in a crowded out-of-town team. She also knelt in the crowd as the Guards of Gürus left the city.

After the great transformation, the shouts of terror became loud, and the attack power emanating from Faust spread far, and the panicked people were rolled over as they ran around. Samir slipped over and landed in a semi-kneeling position with a steady bow and arrow.

The bow is her common divine bow, but the arrow is Gilgamesh's fang arrow, which was used to stab Sinah. White longtooth arrows ejected and sandwiched in the aftermath of the impact of various divine energies flashed, as if traveling through time and space, seemingly softly silent.

But the semi-kneeling Semir movement was so heavy, as if it had become a hard stone statue, and the whole body seemed to have been emptied by this arrow. The guards who were turning back did not stop the arrow, and the vast majority of the guards did not even notice it.

Samir's arrow is not unlikely to succeed if he assassinates Jurussia in the usual way, but it is a good opportunity at this moment. The shocking attack in the city was a cover for this silent arrow outside the city. The captain of the guard next to Gürus suddenly cautioned and turned to punch, the sword in his hand had just been cut to the sky.

Another great magician nearest to Ruth also felt the danger, trembling his staff in a hurry, wearing a resilient and invisible gas element armor on the Great King. Hearing only a bang, the guard captain of Gürus groaned and flew out, a white arrow appeared strangely and shot Gürus.

This arrow is fast moving, almost invisible to the naked eye, but silently contains a tremendous amount of energy that can shock a warrior in a hurry to strain. Influenced by the gas element armor, the arrow slowed down, even shining light in the air, but still passed through the gas element armor and fell into the back of King Jurussia, floating gently from the chest, without even a trace of blood on the arrow rod.

The arrow behind Gürus came out through his chest, and this scolding emperor slowly stretched his hand over the broken chest armor * *, looking at the arrow that landed on the ground with an incredible look, as if it had been a while before he realized what had happened. He wanted to turn around and see who the assassin was, but his body just moved and his legs just fell.

The guard rushed up to hold him, and the light sacrificed on the cleric's staff covered him, and a shout appeared in his ears, but the voice became more and more distant and faint. His eyes became dark for a moment, and the blood had stained his front chest and back coat.

The city of Nipple was still noisy, but suddenly a strange silence had subsided outside the gates. Apart from the experts around Grussia, they shouted in horror: "Your Majesty -!” The guards around them were staring at each other and couldn't believe the scene they saw.

The outermost soldier of the bandit team first saw Samir's movements and rushed forward to capture the assassin. But at this point in the wilderness came a tidal wave, almost everyone hallucinated, the earth fluctuated into a wave, and the waves rolled over to submerge everyone. People wave their arms shouting, screaming, struggling, but they can't even hear themselves in their throats.

This is the illusion that Leo unfolded, and several high-ranking achievers immediately accepted the disturbance of the illusion, but only saw a people who were struggling with terror and soldiers, and the assassins of the archery had disappeared.

The assassination plan planned for tomorrow night naturally brings with it the style of the best killer on the continent. Everyone strikes the most dangerous blow at the most appropriate moment, and walks away without entanglement. At last, Samir had only one chance to kill Jurussia, and she succeeded!

On that day, the chaos around Nipple City was conceivably witnessed with the accidental assassination of the Great Gürus, and experts from all walks of life began to pursue the assassins. At the same time, someone rushed to Kish City State to report a message to General Darius, who had already escaped without a trace.

……

As originally planned, after the assassination, Semir would dive back to the Assyrian border and continue to patrol the border guards, while Faust would be ordered to return to Niewa City to cope with possible complications. No one knew that they had left quietly, and everything seemed to be going seamlessly.

The injured Faust travelled the fastest, as his Dumze was taken away at an alarming rate. The day after Faust returned, Semir returned to the Queen's car, escorted by Rumour Leo. Gürus is dead and Potts is bound to be in turmoil for a while, and the Assyrian Empire finally has a chance to breathe, but the fate of Assyria depends on whether they can take the opportunity to regain their strength.

Samir sent Faust back to the Imperial Capital, while secretly instructing him not to rush the road, be careful not to get worse, and when he returns to the Imperial Capital, focus on taking care of the injuries, but do not expose himself to serious injuries, so as not to arouse suspicion.

However, Faust did not heed the Queen's advice. He returned to Niwai City day and night, despite the wounds. Nor was it surprising that the Wise Master had acted in this manner, because no one knew that he had been wounded, and the news of the assassination of King Gürus had spread, and it was only logical that the Queen should send him back to the Emperor as a matter of urgency during the visit.
