The Death Knight of the Secret World

Chapter 49 0049. Tracking
Quick, even if it was slowed down ten times, the assassin's movements were still much faster than ordinary people.

The human figure made of smoke first stretched out its right hand, and the moment it stretched out, a dagger appeared in its hand, about ten centimeters long.

Then, when the blade of the dagger was half exposed, his hand was already under Old Gordon's left rib.

The sharp edge of the dagger flashed past like a spirit snake spitting out a letter, and then sank into the chest representing the silhouette of old Gordon.

Then, it only stayed in the chest for a very short moment, and then withdrew.Moreover, when retracted, it quickly disappeared into the wide sleeves in a very subtle way.

The moment the dagger pierced, the cloud of dark red smoke representing Old Gordon's heart stopped moving, and then Old Gordon seemed to have reacted and was about to turn on the corpse.

The corpse collector of Sequence Nine of Death Pathway can be turned into a living corpse, which can make the other party mistake him for a corpse when encountering those vicious spirits, and even have the effect of being immune to some physical damage.

This is one of the skills used by veteran corpse collectors to save their lives. As long as the injuries they receive are not instantly fatal, they can survive for a while after turning on the corpse.Whether it is to continue to run the corpse, or to find a companion with healing ability to heal quickly, it is very useful.

But in the eyes of several people at the scene, a gloomy light flickered inside the smoky figure representing Old Gordon, and then stopped moving.

It takes about two seconds to turn on the living corpse, and the experienced corpse collector can even switch instantly in about a second.

But still no time!
Beomy could even see the face of the smoky figure that represented old Gordon stiffen for a moment.

Then, he fell limp.

The process of falling is under ten times slow motion, almost like a feather falling from the sky.

This action of falling to the ground took about 30 seconds to complete, which is about three seconds without considering the ten times slow motion.

And in these three seconds, the assassin had already walked five or six meters away.

As if they met a drunk, the two had a little physical contact, and then they broke up immediately.

Killing a person in ten steps will never stop a thousand miles away!Such a poem flashed through Beomie's mind.

This is the real assassin!
He may not have taken ten steps in total from approaching old Gordon to completing the assassination and turning sideways to continue walking.

The movement of old Gordon falling to the ground was slowed down for nearly 30 seconds in front of Beomi's eyes.

Beomi could even feel the helplessness of life disappearing rapidly from this body!

During these 30 seconds, Beomie felt that she forgot to breathe, and the scene of parting from old Gordon, the foul-mouthed one-eyed ugly ghost, quickly replayed in Beomie's mind.

My heart is a little blocked!
Baomi exhaled slowly, and slowly clenched her fists.

"Quite a professional technique!" came the deep voice of the leader of the night warden.

"It seems that Backlund has a very difficult guy!"

"It looks like a serial killer is more likely!" Sam straightened his glasses and said his own judgment: "Only a serial killer can quickly find the gap between the ribs to assassinate in such a short period of time. "

"Only they understand the structure of the human body well enough to even complete such a difficult assassination in motion!"

Sam, the man with golden glasses, is a reasoning student of Sequence Eight of the White Tower Pathway. The starting point of this path is [Reader], so it is also called the Reader Pathway.

The true god corresponding to the reader's path at the end is the White Tower, which is the sequence that the ancient sun god once possessed, omniscient and omnipotent.

The reader path has better knowledge than the spectator path, and it also has strong observation and reasoning abilities, but its own combat power is not outstanding. The characters belonging to the mage class belong to that before becoming a demigod of Sequence Four. Auxiliary staff.

With thin skin and little blood, he belonged to the kind of extraordinary person who would easily rush to the street.When they were in the low ranks, they didn't even have the endless life-saving skills of the Gou Sanjia, so few people would choose this path to be promoted.

Unless—he's from the church.

Sam is such a person who loves learning and reasoning very much, and he is also a very rare talent in the Church of the Evernight Goddess.However, the reader channel mastered by the Evernight Goddess Church is not complete, but it is indeed qualified as a strong support for grassroots cadres.

His observation ability and reasoning ability are very strong, so the judgments he made are also convincing enough.

The three night guards looked at each other, and felt that the direction of the investigation could basically be confirmed.

At this time, Beomi was not in the mood to listen to their analysis.

He was looking at the smoke silhouette representing Old Gordon with a heavy heart. After Old Gordon fell to the ground, the wine bottle in his hand spilled out, soaking the clothes on his chest.

And the wound under the left rib also began to bleed profusely, and after a while, a large area spread out on the ground.

Beomi hadn't seen Old Gordon for the last time, and now he relived the scene of Old Gordon's death in this way, and the huge emotional shock made him a little distracted.

Jurgen was the one who personally collected old Gordon's body, and he was also the one who brought the body from this tavern back to the sweeper's office.Seeing this heartbreaking scene again, his heart was also very heavy, but after all, he was an old corpse collector who was used to seeing death, and he just came back to his senses after being absent for a moment.

Then he realized that Beomie's current state was very strange. Beomie was staring straight at the outline of a human-shaped cloud of smoke lying on the ground, her right hand clenched tightly, and her body was still shaking slightly.

The scar-faced old man had a good impression of this little guy. Although Ms. Sura had given him a special confession before, he was only responsible for watching Beomi and making sure that this little guy didn't completely fall for the church.

And he also saw that this kid was also a man of temperament. Although he had only cooperated with Old Gordon once, he had personally witnessed the loss after hearing the news of Old Gordon's death.

Tonight, with the help of the ability of a high-sequence transcendent, this little guy [witnessed] the moment when old Gordon was killed. Right now, heaven and man are at war.

He didn't want Beomy to be looked down upon by the night wardens of the church, so the scar-faced old man patted Beomie's shoulder lightly, bringing the little guy back to his senses.

Beomi felt Jurgen patting him on the shoulder, and finally recovered from the trance.Then he said something, which surprised everyone present.

"That method is the method of hiding the knife in the sleeve, I have seen it!"

Beomi gritted her teeth to suppress the strong emotions in her heart, and said in a calm tone.

"Oh?" The leader of the night guard looked at the little guy in surprise.

He knows that the Sweeper Organization, a scumbag organization that is only suitable for the Night Carrier, has retained a small high-level member of the Extraordinary characteristics belonging to the Church of the Evernight Goddess, and he is also very clear that the leader of the Sweeper Squad with a special identity uses this Extraordinary The traits have produced a little guy who has not yet grown up.

The church was a little dismissive of this kind of probing behavior of the Loen royal family, and didn't even take that Extraordinary characteristic into its eyes, but it didn't prevent him from knowing this little guy, Beomi.

Because Backlund Church of the Evernight Goddess has a special surveillance object that has some overlap with this little guy, he also has a special understanding of this little guy Beomi.

I don't know, I don't know, it's really beyond his expectation.

To the little guy in front of him, he can only say one thing: It's not easy.

So, he'd like to hear what Beomie has discovered.

Beomi didn't speak, but pulled out a dagger from the boots under her feet. It was a fairly delicate dagger, and it looked sharp.But in the eyes of a few extraordinary people, this thing is useless.

It was a small gift from Romeo Beckman to Beomy, who always complained that his knife for canning meat was not good enough, and he didn't have a kitchen knife.Therefore, the eldest brother of the Bei family who had grown up recently chose a beautiful dagger from the many gifts he received and gave it to Beiomi.

Beomi held the dagger in his right hand, and with a flick of his wrist, he hid the dagger in his sleeve. Then he stretched out his hand, but without any movement of his fingers, the sharp dagger appeared in his hand.

With a quick stab forward and a flick of his index finger, the blade slid out in a perfect arc in the air. Before the few people present could see clearly, he retracted his hand, and the dagger disappeared from his sleeve again. middle.

Although his movements were much slower than that of the assassin, his style was very similar.It surprised everyone present, how could this kid know how to read it once?
It was the inference student Sam who discovered something, gently pushed the middle frame of the gold-rimmed glasses with his index finger, and said, "It's very similar. Have you practiced this... technique before?"

"That's right, I lived in the slums before I became a sweeper, so I'm quite familiar with this method!"

"This is one of the tricks of the strongest old pickpocket Squirrel in the slums!" Beomi looked at the leading night guard and said coldly: "I have learned from Squirrel for a while before, I have indeed practiced it!"

"This is a relatively common pickpocketing technique. There are many in every larger city... the rats in the sewers will use it!" Sam shook his head lightly, feeling that this could not be regarded as any strong evidence.

"But..." Beomi wanted to say something else.

The short and fat night watchman raised his hand to interrupt him, and said, "Whether it matters or not, won't it be clear if we go for a walk in a while?"

"Okay!" Sam shrugged. "Then do you want me to come next? Mr. Hopkins!"

"Of course I need this!" The short and fat nightman nodded, "I searched around here just now, but I didn't find any spirit who could provide information! After all, this is a small tavern, and people come and go every day, even if It's a murder scene, and it's hard to leave any useful clues!"

"Okay then!" Sam nodded, clapped his hands a few more times, and pulled back the figure of the smoker who had gone away, making the outline stop when he and Old Gordon passed by.

Then Sam took a small bottle from his pocket, unscrewed the cap, and poured a few drops of something on the silhouetted figure.

Those few drops of liquid quickly submerged into the silhouetted figure, turning into a few bright spots that shone with fluorescence.Then Sam circled the outline figure twice, and finally breathed on him, and the outline figure began to move again.

"From now on, we just have to follow him."

Then, a few people looked at the silhouetted figure and walked a few steps quickly, turned its body a few times in one place, as if avoiding someone, then circled half of the tavern, and finally walked out from the main entrance of the tavern.

Seeing the silhouette figure go out the door, several people hurriedly followed.
