Chapter 196 Mantis catching cicadas

"The prey has been caught in the net."

Hidden in the depths of the dark jungle, sharp eyes flashed with a cold light. The next moment, an almost inaudible sound spread among the trees. Soon, one black figure after another stood slowly.

Stand up. Their eyes were shining with excitement. Although everyone was very excited, their movements were still meticulous, which seemed to show a strange contrast. Soon, they saw the leader

One of the people lowered his voice, gathered everyone together, and then spoke.

"Remember, don't forget, our target is the Unionist faction led by the Parwood family. The employer requires that they be killed without leaving a single one alive. Now they are focusing on finding that damn beacon.

This is a good opportunity for us. You should know very well what this means for our hunting group!"

As he said this, the man's voice became more and more serious, and when he heard what he said, a skinny monkey-like guy next to him sneered.

"Don't worry, boss, we all know how important this mission is to everyone. Otherwise, why would you come to us? That little girl is just a mid-level mage...hehehehe..."

"Shut up!!"

Hearing his colleague's nonchalant words, the man glared at him coldly.

"No matter what, we have to do our own thing well. You know very well that if something goes wrong, we will be in trouble. This time is not the boring dispute between ordinary nobles we took over before, but a

If you're not careful, you may get into big trouble."

After saying this, the man waved his hand. Then he lowered his head.

"Remember our principle, kill with one blow. Leave no one alive, do you understand?"

Facing the man's inquiry, no one spoke. They just nodded. Then, they saw these assassins, all covered in black, raising their hands and making a gesture out of thin air. Soon,

A faint magical light emitted in front of them, and the next moment, when the strong wind and heavy rain hit the ground through the gaps in the leaves, the figures who were still here before had completely disappeared.

Under the night, there is lightning and thunder.

"Rumble, rumble, rumble..."

The dull thunder rolled like a heavy hammer and struck the heart of every life. The dazzling white light tore through the darkness in an instant, leaving extremely sad traces on the retina. The heavy rain poured down, covering all the darkness.

Abnormal movement. No one will notice whether the fluttering leaves are blown by the wind or caused by people walking through them. For most people, just being able to protect themselves in this natural disaster is enough.

It’s not easy, so how can you have time to care about other things?

David squinted his eyes and looked at the glimmer of light in the distance through the gaps in the leaves. His whole body was wrapped in black night clothes. The silky gray leech skin could prevent raindrops from penetrating his clothes, and it was tied around his waist.

The dagger has also been enchanted with a poison that can seal the throat when blood is seen. He took a deep breath of cold air and closed his mouth to block the hot air coming out of his mouth. Then he carefully moved along the edge of the grass to the side.

The power of magic was surrounding him, covering his figure. But David was still very careful because he knew very well how important this mission was to himself and the hunting group.

When he thought of the generous reward, David couldn't help but trembled a little - but this was not because of excitement, but because of panic. As an assassin in the dark world, David knew very well that getting a piece of money for doing something, generally speaking

Whether the reward given by the other party is generous can indicate whether the mission is dangerous and whether the impact is huge. And although David is not very clear about what exactly is involved, the generous reward from the other party is almost eye-catching.

It can be seen from the rewards that fell out that this mission must be quite dangerous and have far-reaching consequences.

It seems that we can no longer stay in Eagle Plateau.

Thinking of this, David stretched out his hand to hold the dagger at his waist. He had made up his mind to leave with his men after finishing this job. He could feel that the rich smell of blood on the Eagle Plateau was getting stronger and stronger.

It's getting thicker and thicker, and it won't be long before this land will face unprecedented trouble.

"Wow."

At this moment, David felt the line of law around him jump. Soon, he noticed a person coming to his side.

"How's the situation? Have you figured out who the target is?"

"Everything is normal. The other party is from Archduke Dalt. They are hiding from the rain in a cave and did not notice our arrival at all."

"Is it a ginkgo collar?"

Hearing this answer, David frowned. He originally hoped to find the members of the Parwood family and take a detour to the front after checking their route. But he didn't expect that he would encounter the people from the Ginkgo collar first. However,

There is nothing wrong with this. The Ginkgo Leader is one of the most loyal allies of the Parwood family and is also among the top three on the must-kill list. It would be better to eliminate them easily...

Thinking of this, David moved his fingers, but just when he was about to issue an order, suddenly, a quick, low sound like the chirping of some kind of insect came from behind the rain curtain, and hearing this sound, David's

His expression suddenly changed.

Someone is coming?

"Miss Patilina, how long do we have to go..."

Holding the staff, Delly stumbled on the slippery ground. At this moment, the eldest lady was pale and gasping for breath. As a mage, her physical strength was not good, and she was operating in the dark all night.

, has been advancing towards the depths of Xia Feng Forest, and it has really made Dai Li suffer a lot. If before, Dai Li only had a perceptual understanding of the achievements of her ancestors, then now she finally has a personal understanding of them.

Experience what it was like when the ancestors launched an attack on the barbarians in the rain - Gods above, this is not just as simple as smearing people on their way, but also against the heavy rain coming from the road. As a mage,

Delly is not good at field marching. On the other hand, both Patilina and the girl knights are obviously very experienced in this. In fact, if they had not taken care of Delly, I am afraid that the eldest lady would have fallen by now.

His head was covered.

"I, should we...should we find a place to rest...now...it's raining so hard..."

At this moment, Delly could no longer hold on any longer. She stumbled forward and spoke out of breath. As a result, she was accidentally poured into her mouth by the strong wind mixed with raindrops, which made the eldest lady.

He suddenly started coughing and his face turned red.

This is really unlucky!!

"That's almost it."

Patilina didn't care about Delly's life or death. She just looked around, and then cast her gaze on the faint firelight in the distance that was almost submerged in the heavy rain. Then the little guy tilted his head, and then she

He quickly glanced at the depths of the dark jungle around him, and a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes. But soon, the little guy smiled again, turned his head to look at the girl beside him and said.

"It seems like there is someone over there. Let's go and take a look, Miss Delly."

"Okay, okay......"

After hearing these words, Delly also cheered up. She also saw the faint light of fire, which immediately cheered up Delly. At this moment, she did not consider who the other party was, but simply felt that she could

The desire to find a warm and comfortable place to rest on this cold wind-swept day. This is the first time that Delly is looking forward to sitting in front of a bonfire, feeling the warmth of the flames and dispelling the coldness in her body. If only she could have another cup of hot air

It would be even better if you have steaming milk tea and sweet and delicious bread!!

After having a clear goal, everyone moved forward much faster. Even Delly cheered up and walked towards the place illuminated by the fire, surrounded by the girl knights.

It didn't take long before they arrived at their destination.

It was a naturally formed cave. Judging from the traces at the cave entrance, it seemed that this was once a place where beasts such as bears lived. But now it has been occupied by humans, so those beasts naturally ran far away. Bright red

The colorful firelight reflects on the cave wall, bringing a dreamy light and shadow.

Although no one saw the guards at the entrance of the cave, it did not mean that they were not vigilant at all. In fact, when Delly and others arrived at the entrance of the cave, they soon saw four or five guards in silver armor walking from the cave.

came out and blocked their way with weapons in hand.

"Who are you? What do you want to do?!"

Seeing these girls appearing in the pouring rain, the leading guard was also stunned, but he still hurriedly shouted. And hearing his voice, Delly, who was still a little nervous, was relieved at the moment, and then she went up

Half a step forward, he spoke with a smile on his face.

"It's me, Uncle Claude, I'm Delly Parwood..."

"The eldest lady of the Parwood family?"

Hearing this, the guard named Claude was stunned for a moment, then immediately reacted and stepped aside.

"Please come in, Miss Dai Li, I didn't expect to meet you..."

"I didn't expect that I would meet people from the ginkgo collar here..." As she said that, Delly led the others into the cave. She looked at the guards beside her curiously and said casually.

Asked. "...By the way, Uncle Claude, who is the representative sent by the Ginkgo Territory this time?"

"this………"

Hearing Delly's question, Claude's face showed a bit of helplessness. But before he could answer, suddenly, a voice sounded from inside.

"Is it Delly? Is it Delly?!! I finally see you!!!" (To be continued...)
