Dimensional Codex

Where there is light, there is darkness.

The Holy State is a vast and beautiful country, but this does not mean that it is heaven. Where humanity gathers will always breed darkness and evil, even the kingdom of the Holy Ghost is no exception.

Caja city.

This is a city on the border. On the surface, it is not as serious and serious as the border city. On the contrary, the bustling and elegant buildings and rolling villas make this place more like a resort. The mountains and rivers, the clean and tidy streets and the tall city walls make it all look luxurious and beautiful.

But at the moment, those murderous soldiers have broken all the peace.

"They're here again."

Sitting in the tavern, watching the heavily armed soldiers walking across the street, a man in black said with a low smile. He raised his glass, took a sip of ale, and then sneered.

"Look, don't they look like a bunch of wild dogs that have been carried out by their owners?"

"What else can I do? After all, I heard that the deceased son of the city owner was dead this time."

The woman sitting beside him shook her head. Although she said she was helpless, she also had a smile on her face.

"How did he die this time?"

"I heard that I accidentally fell off the balcony and died."

Having said that, the woman nodded meaningfully.

"A lot of people have witnessed it."

"Yes………"

Hearing the woman's answer, the man in black sneered.

"Amazing ... Everywhere, our Lord Grim Reaper is really amazing."

"Be quiet, stupid."

The woman stepped on the man fiercely, making his look less weird.

"You don't know what is low-key? Although the rumor is just a rumor, it is not just a rumor! Be careful, if you talk anymore, maybe you will be the next one to suffer!"

Hearing here, the man suddenly looked, and never dared to speak again.

It all starts with the "death exchange" half a month ago.

There is a rumored "Death Exchange" in this city of Khar. Of course, this is not a meeting place for necromancers, and it has nothing to do with hell. In fact, it is a dark assassin. Assembly point. Those assassins from all forces, or no forces, will take the task on the death exchange, and then go to assassinate the target. Of course, all of this is confidential, and those commissions are placed on specially treated wooden boards, and only assassins are allowed to take them down. Of course, the death exchange also has strict restrictions and a hierarchical system. Assassins who complete the task will be promoted before they are eligible for more dangerous tasks.

Just half a month ago, something happened on the death exchange.

An unknown assassin took a commission to assassinate the captain of the city.

This was not a big deal, so the assassins didn't care, but just a day later, the death exchange confirmed the death of the security captain.

It wasn't death on the way home, nor was it disappearing into a dark corner, but after getting drunk, he fell off the city gate and hit the ground with a "snap".

Then ... naturally there is no more.

No one takes it seriously. A small captain of the city guard, and likes alcoholism is a well-known thing, because if you drink too much, accidentally step on a loose brick, then fall and fall, it is normal. Things.

What surprised everyone, however, was that shortly after the death of the security captain, the power of attorney was returned to the death exchange, and a request for confirmation was given.

That is to say, the captain was not killed by accident, but was killed by an assassin?

The Death Exchange can become a famous gathering place of underground assassins in the dark. Of course, they have their own ability. They invited out the most powerful prophecy master on their side, and then predicted and investigated the death of the captain of the guard. The conclusion was ... that the captain of the guard did indeed die by accident.

Now that the factual evidence is conclusive, it is naturally impossible for the thief to catch the fish in the muddy water to succeed, so the death exchange naturally revoked the commission. Of course, they did not find the assassin who accepted the commission. At that time, they only thought that the thief was planning to take a chance to mix up, so they deliberately hid their heads. Especially after the death exchange revoked the commission, the assassin did not come out, which made the death exchange more and more believe that the other party might just be lucky. After accepting the commission, the commission target accidentally died because of accident, so he planned to mix up the reward .

And after that, strange things happened.

In the death exchange, the connection appeared that someone took the commission, and then the assassination targets of the commission died due to various accidents. These commissions also returned to the exchange for confirmation after the death of the mission target, but the exchange's prophets investigated the results of each commission ......... accidentally.

Once or twice can be considered an accident, but a large number of similar "accidents" in a short period of time, it is not an accident.

The person in charge of the Death Exchange is not a fool. Their prophetic mage is a legendary mage, but even the other party cannot detect any signs ... how is this possible?

The assassins in this world are very powerful, but after all they are also assassins. To put it plainly, it is still a kind of deadly existence hidden in the dark. The biggest advantage of the assassins here is their patience and ubiquitous assassination. They can wait for the first half of the year for a target, always looking for flaws in the target, seeking a one-shot kill. They can also use their weapons full of cursing or magical powers to break the defense of the opponent, but even so, they still need to do it themselves.

Because of this, these assassins usually rely on special means to hide themselves, and at the same time, the assassins will not take out their own star patterns. In other words, assassinations in this world, everyone knows that they are assassinations, at best they don't know who the assassins are.

But ... the "assassination" of this assassin is no longer an assassination.

This is more like a declaration of death.

Of course, the Death Exchange did not pay much attention to this "Assassin" at the beginning, because the people killed by the other party were not low in status, but they were very weak. If it is a person whose strength is far beyond them, it is not impossible to play them with this powerful power, at most it is bad taste.

However, when a senior mage in a certain family was assassinated, things went bad immediately.

Of course, according to the inspector at the time, the mage suddenly lost control of the spell when he released the magic, and then backfired to his death. From beginning to end, the mage showed no signs of being controlled by the mind, and after the priest of the temple inspected the corpse, he said that the corpse was not poisoned or that he was taking certain drugs that interfered with the spirit.

If I change to another place, I am afraid that it will only be regarded as a high-level mage's mistake, and not too much attention.

But the death exchange doesn't think so.

Because just before the death of this high-level mage, his assassination commission was taken away by that "death".

When the high-level mage died, the "trust" was sent back.

For a moment, the entire top of the death exchange was shocked.

Although in the eyes of ordinary people, the assassin has an advantage over the mage, in fact, the last thing an assassin does not want to face is the mage, and he is a high-level mage. Because after reaching the intermediate level, the mage will use various methods to store defense spells to cope with emergencies, whether it is assassination, poisoning, or even when the person around the mage wants to use his undefended Raids are impossible. And once a mage is ready, the next bad luck must be the assassin.

So for those powerful assassins, letting them assassinate a mage is better than assassinating high-level warriors or sword masters and even druids. After all, in the face of these occupations, they still have a certain degree of certainty, but in the face of the mage, they basically rely on their faces to gamble if the other party is really stupid enough to be killed by assassins.

Of course, assassins are generally black ... ... the end, naturally you don't need to ask more.

But now, there is an assassin who can kill a high-level mage in such a weird and easy way? What's more, he didn't find out how anyone did it!

This immediately attracted the attention of the Death Exchange. Even the three legendary powerhouses inside the Death Exchange were all dispatched, and they stayed in front of the entrusted Kanban to find out the Assassin.

But then, the thriller happened.

Another commission disappeared silently, and then accompanied by "accidental death", the commission returned to the death exchange again. The problem is that in the whole process, the three strong men didn't find anything at all!

This means that the other party escaped the search of a powerful prophecy mage, a legendary killer and a legendary thief, as if entering and leaving the death exchange at random, but no one Find!

Is that human being! ?

With the gradual fermentation of things, an "invisible death" has appeared in the death exchange, and many people have heard about it. Because of this, they are even more frightened. Some people even bought assassins, and wanted to know the target of the "invisible death" to investigate and prevent it. But ... it's all useless.

"........." Invisible "Death"? "

The sheriff in armor raised his head and looked at the pale-colored men in front of his eyes.

"Isn't this a normal accident? You and I witnessed it together."

"That's right, Lord Conan ..."

Hearing the inquiries of the sheriff, the servants in front of him were also sweaty.

"As you said ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ We were also invited to the ball at that time, and both you and me, adults, saw that person ... ridiculous ...

Speaking of which, the attendant's face also showed a slight disapproval. Because the wasteful son of the deceased city owner is a vivacious person who loves to play with women. In fact, this time when they went to the dinner hosted by the city owner, they also witnessed how annoying the **** was. He was going to forcibly take away the maid after he failed to make fun of it. In the process, the **** suddenly stepped on the smooth floor and lost his balance, and then hit the railing on the second-floor balcony. Perhaps it was because the railing broke down over the years, and it fell to the death.

Of course, Conan Knight saw this scene. He was going to stop the idiot's stupid behavior. Although he is now retired, as a former Templar, he cannot remain indifferent to such things.

Not to mention that the idiocy son ’s reputation in the city is rather poor. After his death, the whole city can almost be said to be a crown of honors. If it were n’t for the Lord Lord, then it is estimated that celebrations will begin on the streets.

But now, the city owner came to himself, saying that he was searching for a "death"?

What the **** is this?
