winter era

Chapter 33
In the seemingly uninhabited jungle, four pairs of eyes stared at the simple-looking carriage gradually disappearing from their sight.After feeling the icy breath gradually shifting out of their vision, they each put down the sniper arrows in their hands and let out a long sigh of relief.

"Who is that idiot? Isn't it a bit scary?"

The man who looked the shortest had a look of lingering fear on his face, and tremblingly inserted the short black knife back into the scabbard around his waist.The men around also put away their weapons one after another, with expressions of sympathy on their faces.

They are ambush assassins specially used for assassination in the capital.First-class people who use despicable and indecent methods don't have any so-called glory and dreams.But even they who have become daggers know who to mess with and who not to mess with.Originally, they just wanted to stop here to teach the young master of the Rost family a big and small lesson, so that he would be less strict in the future, but the rich man who suddenly appeared at the door made them fall into a huge dilemma. in fear.

What is that?Is that human?Is that guy really human?
Wearing a very rustic bearskin coat, a typical short black hair that formed the opposite of his pale body was messy and branched.That frail and emaciated face was full of disdain and arrogance, like a typical country landowner.

But those eyes are definitely not the eyes that a living person can appear.No matter what you look at, it's like seeing a pile of debris.The four of them could even clearly feel the indifferent smile drawn from the corner of his mouth as his empty gaze swept over.As soon as they thought of that terrifying and sinister smile, the hairs of the four of them stood up uncontrollably.

That feeling is like walking alone in a random grave in the middle of the night.Uncontrollable murmurs of unknown meaning resounded in his mind, and his whole body was filled with some kind of icy energy.If that person hadn't looked away pityingly, they even had the illusion that they would be watched to death by that person.

"That person is definitely the dead guard of a big family, absolutely."

The leader of the four, with a face of white sweat, said decisively to the three unlucky brothers around him.

"Don't mess with such characters in the future. They are either dead or living dead. We can't play with dead people, and living people are scarier than dead people, and we can't afford to play with them. Now pack up your things and leave quickly. If that old man is upset If you kill him and come back, none of us brothers will even try to run away."

"Boss, what about the commission we received? Three small gold teeth, I can't bear it..." The dark and thin young man seemed rather unwilling after being frightened, he gritted his teeth and pulled out the dagger at his waist to make it out. A look of reluctance to give up money.

But anyone can see that this person is stern.Even though the leather armor on his body was trembling badly because of fear, there was still an unstoppable greedy flame in his eyes.Those three little gold teeth are a treasure that fell from the sky for low-level assassins like them.As for what the Rost family represents, they still don't know.Anyway, the Sir is the Sir, what position is the Sir, and these little people don't know, do they?
"Boss, let's do it. Anyway, it's just that one person and dressed in such an old-fashioned way, we are not afraid of wearing shoes with bare feet, let's do it! The three gold teeth are just a deposit. If we succeed, we will not worry about it for ten years !"

"That has to be life-saving. You said that bare feet are not afraid of those who wear shoes? Can you compare a baby's bare feet with sergeant's iron boots?" He glanced at his somewhat crazy face.That meaning is quite clear.You bastard looking for death, don't take me with you, I want to live a few more years, so don't play me to death.

"Besides, there are still a few masters and knights waiting there. We are just an appetizer. Why are you in a hurry? Even if we fail, there are still masters ahead, right?"

The elder brother who took the lead shrugged his shoulders and placed the weapon on his waist.A slap on the back of the lean man with a face full of unwillingness. "Be happy, at least we earned three big gold teeth without losing any parts, go back and drink some wine."

Hearing these words, the remaining two also shrugged and walked out of the forest together.These crude assassins never noticed any unusual changes in their surroundings.He didn't even notice that there was a pair of dark red eyes staring at them coldly in his shadow.

All the information and scenes here are captured by those indifferent dark red eyes, and twisted into balls of spiritual consciousness to move forward.Finally, it reached the mind of a man who was called a dead man, wrapped in a bearskin coat and sitting in a carriage.

Listening to those crappy assassins' evaluation of him and the news that knights blocked them, Kaos smiled slightly, and wrapped his body with the tan bearskin coat more forcefully.The thin and thin body is wrapped in a huge bearskin coat, like throwing a bamboo pole into the bag, it looks quite funny and conspicuous.

"I said Niya, isn't it impolite to call someone a dead person out of nowhere?"

"What are you talking about? Of course, right? How could anyone call someone they met for the first time a dead person? That's extremely rude." Niya looked at Kaka who had been silent for a while and suddenly said something with a look of inexplicable expression. Os.

She really couldn't understand how long she had just told him about the history of the Imperial Academy of Magic, and then said the great achievements of countless historical celebrities. A sentence like this popped out suddenly.Where have all these thought circuits gone?
"Really? It's really not correct to directly say that people are dead faces, right?"

After muttering this inexplicably in Nya's eyes, Kaos snapped his fingers nervously.After waiting for a few seconds, he nodded as if confirming something, and returned to the sculpture-like state.The heir of such a big family suddenly felt a sense of contempt from the inside out.Niya wanted to explode on the spot, and the duel with that dead-headed wizard made him explain exactly what was wrong with him.

But when Kaos's gray-black eyeballs met her abruptly, Niya gasped and fell silent.This is not to say that Niya has some special feelings for Kaos or something, but because there is really no human emotion in those eyeballs.It's as cold as being stuffed with an ice cube in your clothes in winter.

"Niya." He suddenly looked at the young master of the Rost family and asked. "Have you checked someone's supplies recently?"

"Eh? Ah, that's true. Recently, I led the gendarmerie to investigate about thirteen houses belonging to the Alphonse family, and there are also seven luxury houses belonging to the Drake family. This is what I did in the last month. The biggest case." Niya originally wanted to retort that she had nothing to do with you.But looking at Kaos' long face, he turned a corner for some reason.

"It's not difficult to understand." Kaos nodded.Facing the cold wind blowing in front of him, under Niya's bewildered gaze, he stretched out a dry finger and pointed at the void.As if a finger had been inserted into a pond, a ripple suddenly appeared in the void, and the gradually spreading ripple became an inexplicable frame, and finally formed a very weird looking mirror.Even on the speeding carriage, it seemed to be one with Kaos, as if standing still.

And on the opposite side of the mirror, a few furtive men wearing heavy armor, ambushing at the crossroads in front of the carriage clearly appeared in front of Niya.It was not the first time that the young master who had experienced 'assassination' frowned.

"Assassination is the most despicable act in the eyes of those great wizards, why is it so upright here?" Kaos shook his head, his weak face was full of helplessness and entanglement.Facing the distorted mirror, the former great wizard slightly bent his knuckles and made a tapping gesture.

"I wish you all good health..."

Kaos squinted his eyes and muttered in a low voice, and lightly tapped the twisted mirror with his dead wood-like palm.
