From Skaven to God of War

Chapter 75: Violent Assassin

A noisy voice sounded, and it was the big shot of the rat man.

After the temple guards appeared, he suddenly perked up, and the panic and fear on his face were almost instantly swept away.

Shouting loudly to the temple guards not far away.

"Quick! Hurry up and rescue me! And then kill these guys! What are you idiots doing standing there!"

In that loud and piercing cry.

However, this senior ratman priest did not notice that the pair of scarlet eyes emerging from the darkness behind him had already shown some impatience and irritation.

A short black blade slashed across the neck of this once great man as nimbly as a butterfly flying through flowers.

Accompanied by angry shouts coming from not far away.

"stop!"

In the feeling of suffocation that came at that moment, the senior ratman priest opened his mouth wide and gradually realized what was happening.

His eyes were full of disbelief.

Even if he was captured, he felt that he would at least die in the god's sacrificial ceremony and become the most honorable one among the sacrifices.

Although he was unwilling to accept such a fate, this rude way of death made it even more difficult for him to accept.

Whimpering and trying to swallow the air, his body, which was more energetic than that of ordinary ratmen due to the nourishment of blood mushrooms, tried hard to stand up.

But it was of no avail. He fell to the ground, bleeding, and died.

The ratman assassin who killed him didn't even look at this guy, but stared at the angry captain of the temple guard in the distance, his red eyes narrowed.

At this time, the true faces of these assassins were revealed.

These are black rats with pitch-black fur and blood-red eyes. They have hunched backs, which makes them look much shorter and thinner than ordinary ratmen.

This kind of slenderness is not the kind of thinness that is skin and bones, but the kind of slenderness that represents agility and lightness.

Opposite them were the temple guards wearing armor and holding shields and spears.

The team leader even had red eyes.

As the captain of a temple guard, he is undoubtedly the elite among the ratmen. Even in the Rat War, his starting point was just the captain of the temple guard.

Once upon a time, the two ratmen who were both captains were also competing against each other, but now, Shuzhan has become the ratman warlord, while he is still a small captain.

The strong sense of gap and huge jealousy almost overwhelmed him at a certain time, and also led to the current situation.

He was not only jealous of Shu Zhan, but also jealous of the white rat who did not give him this opportunity.

After his jealousy was seen through by the old priest, it was very easy for him to get on the chariot of no return.

Now he has no way to retreat. Only by relying on the old man's hidden assets and some secret tunnels interspersed in the mountains can he survive the purge of white rats.

But the old guy was killed in front of him!

He obviously had no way out, and only death was waiting for him.

The captain of the ratman temple guard realized his fate at this moment.

But before that, in a rage, he decided to bring death to these guys in front of him who had destroyed his hope of survival!

"Kill them!" With his angry shout, the team of ratman temple guards, consisting of only about fifteen people, began to march into the narrow tunnel.

That shield was much larger than the wooden shields equipped by ordinary ratmen warriors, and was clearly reinforced with animal fur and tendons, and was held in front of him.

Spears shot out one after another.

In an instant, the formation was completed.

"charge!"

Following the captain's order, the temple guards, who had formed a battle formation, began to charge.

In an instant, these temple guards completed the acceleration, and their formation remained perfect without any mistakes.

In the whistling charge, several ratman assassins who failed to dodge in time were pierced through the body by wooden spears and were blocked by their shields and slammed violently against the rock wall of the tunnel.

With a dull sound, the wooden spears shattered into pieces the moment they hit the rock wall. The same fate befell all the spears made from hard wood specially selected from the forest.

What’s more, the ratman assassin was not wearing armor and had no effective protection.

The ratman assassin was unable to dodge and was pierced and hit, and he was almost silent instantly.

In this narrow tunnel, this group of charging temple guards gave off a feeling of invincibility. You can believe how great the fear these guys would bring when hundreds of temple guards blocked the end of the tunnel and rushed towards you with a roar.

Compared to them, those rat assassins seemed particularly silent.

Even when the temple guards began to charge, this group of guys silently dodged into the darkness around them. Even if they were unable to dodge and were pierced, they would only let out a muffled groan at most, and then there would be no sound until they died.

Until those temple guards stepped into the darkness.

The sharp hidden blade that didn't show any edge would suddenly appear, accompanied by almost silent steps, and nimbly passed over the spears and shields in the hands of the temple guards.

The slender figure crashed into his arms, but it was not accompanied by the budding spring scenery, but death. It left him at the touch of a button, with only a slit throat.

Several temple guards fell in this sudden attack.

But the temple guards were indeed worthy of the title of the most elite ratmen. Soon, the warriors who reacted quickly threw away the heavy wooden shields and the spears in their hands that were suitable for use in large-scale melees.

Instead, a weapon that is more suitable for use in a small environment, the short spear, was used.

Large battle formations were obviously no longer suitable in small-scale melees, and the temple guards quickly separated from the main team into small groups of three to attack the rat assassins in front of them.

But the rat-man assassins are no slouch either.

As a specialized assassin, the problem of the target being protected by too many ratmen and unable to approach was taken into consideration when it was first established.

They have also practiced battle formations, which is why they divide into teams of five when capturing rat priests.

Because a team of five people is enough to defeat most of the rat warriors, slave rats, and guards around the rat priests, and then forcibly capture the target.

Although as assassins they certainly cannot compare with professionals.

But a short fight was enough.

The two sides fought frantically, and in that difficult battle, these quiet assassins who were immune to the priest's frenzy gradually became excited.

His eyes turned blood red and his attacks became faster and more crazy.
