In order to make her life easier on this journey, Lothar decided to lie to her conscience: "Quinn is very good, beautiful and assertive."

No matter how Quinn heard it, she felt that Luo Ji's words were perfunctory, but unexpectedly it sounded quite pleasant.

Lestara's eyes lit up: "Then are you willing to marry her?"

The rein in Quinn's hand was nearly snapped.

Lothar gave a wry smile, snorted and didn't answer the question, he was afraid that if he continued to talk about this nosy lady, he would really become a matchmaker for himself and Quinn on a whim.

"Are women who are self-improving very assertive..." Lothar recalled the women he met in his life, "That's true, but they're more difficult to deal with..."

"Ka!"

A loud eagle call made the hairs of the people in the carriage stand up.

It was Valor's cry.

Quinn stopped the carriage and whispered behind him: "Mrs. Lestara, please don't get out of the car, Hua Luo found something strange."

Le Stara nodded: "Well, Luo Ji and I are waiting for you inside."

Lothar felt very bad. He felt a strong breath, which he had felt many times before.

murderous look.

——————————————————————————————

There are numerous assassin guilds in Noxus.

These guilds exist for a variety of purposes. Some are specifically responsible for taking vendettas, some are specifically responsible for hunting foreigners, and some are specifically responsible for assassinating nobles. They do not have a unified manager and basically only recognize money.

The existence of the Assassin Guild is not in accordance with the Noxian constitution, but it is not bound by the law, so buying and killing people is very common in Noxus.

But it is interesting that most of the people are not opposed to the existence of the Assassin Guild. Although the Assassin Guild undoubtedly threatens the safety of ordinary Noxian people, they unexpectedly accept such a risk.

Chapter 124 Fierce Battle

"Get down!" Lothar roared, pounced on Lestara and overwhelmed her.

Quinn also keenly realized that something was wrong and quickly lowered his body.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Numerous sharp knives penetrated the carriage, piercing the carriage with holes.

The two horses pulling the cart were also not spared, and they were stabbed to death by flying knives in their howls.

Quinn responded very quickly. She took out the hand crossbow from the camera obscura under the seat at the fastest speed. Her eyes caught the trajectory of the flying knife. Several arrows were shot from the crossbow, knocking the blade flying towards her into the air.

But this kind of defense has its limits, and Quinn still missed a few throwing knives.

A blue figure passed by Quinn like a phantom, and Hua Luo slapped the flying knives with his claws.

"Good job!" Quinn couldn't help applauding his partner's assistance.

The blades poured down on the carriage like a torrential rain, but the torrential rain did not last long. After only three breaths, the flying knife stopped attacking.

"Ma'am!" Quinn hurriedly lifted the curtain to check Lestara's situation.

In the carriage, Luo Ji was pressing on Lestara's body, protecting her whole body.

Lestara's face was pale, her beautiful face was full of fear, her beautiful dress had been dyed red with blood, but she knew that the blood was not her own, because she didn't feel the slightest pain.

Quinn clearly saw that Luo Ji had at least twenty flying knives stuck in his back.

...

Katerina hid in a tree with a little surprise in her eyes.

"It doesn't seem like an ordinary person, but he can actually detect my attack." Katerina licked her red lips and threw the flying knife in her hand, "Especially the woman driving the car, she has a good head."

Katerina quickly glanced at the carriage. There were three people in total, and one of them stood up to protect someone in the carriage and became a corpse.

"Do you want to protect yourself, is he a big man?" Katarina laughed cruelly, "It seems that I am lucky, the first prey here is very interesting."

Katarina suddenly felt a chill on the back of her neck, and her instinctive fighting stress made her jump to the tree branch above without looking back.

Katarina glanced out of the corner of the eye, and it was a blue flying shadow that attacked her.

"It's their eagle." Katerina's face flashed a trace of ferocity, "The mere beast dares to attack me."

Katarina's toes paused slightly, and her figure actually disappeared.

Although the falcon is not small, it can fly flexibly in the dense forest, and the pupils in the eagle's eyes shrink to the extreme.

A sharp knife stabbed the falcon in the abdomen.

Falcon slanted his body suddenly, and the sharp knife only scratched it, but Falcon found Katerina's trace, and a hawk chirped sounded.

"Damn it!" Katarina didn't expect this beast to be so agile and able to dodge her attack.

Katarina's ears caught the sound of several arrows breaking through the air, and with the help of the eagle, the girl with the crossbow located Katarina.

Katerina didn't dare to fight with playfulness anymore, she knew that this time she encountered a tough stubble.

"But that's what makes it interesting." Katarina pulled out the two longest curved blades from her waist. "Don't let me be too disappointed."

...

After the arrows shot by Quinn fell into the woods, there was no news, and Hua Luo did not give Quinn a signal of hitting.

"Hualuo only found one assassin." Quinn pushed Luo Ji's body away and quickly pulled Le Stara into the car.

Madame Lestara's body trembled uncontrollably. She saw the death of the Ionian boy up close, and his scattered eyes before his death were deeply etched in Lestara's heart.

"Quinn...he...he's dead..." Lestara grabbed Quinn's shirt with a weeping voice. "It's because I...just like your brother..."

Hearing his brother, Quinn's heartbeat slowed for a while: "Now is not the time to say this, you must follow me closely!"

Quinn closed her eyes, she believed in Hua Luo, this was her most trusted comrade-in-arms, she believed that Hua Luo would never lose the assassin, all she needed to do was wait for Hua Luo's signal to herself.

A breath passed.

Two breaths passed.

Three breaths passed.

"Ka!"

Hua Luo's Eagle Call came.

Quinn suddenly opened his eyes, and the crossbow that had already been loaded was there, the bow arm bounced, and the arrow shot straight at the place where the sound came from.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Greeting the arrow is a throwing knife.

This flying knife first hit the first arrow, and then bounced in a deviated direction, hitting the second arrow, and then landing on the third, fourth, and fifth...

With just one throwing knife, all of Quinn's arrows were thrown into the air, not even one shot into the forest.

Quinn was horrified: "Is this a martial art or magic?"

But there was no time for Quinn to be surprised. With Hua Luo's sharp cry, two figures, one red and one blue, flew out of the forest at the same time.

The blue figure is naturally Hua Luo, and the owner of that bewitching red is naturally an assassin.

The assassin jumped to the roof of the car, and threw out several throwing knives to force Hua Luo back, while the curved blade held in the other hand stabbed down fiercely.

The slender body of this female assassin burst into full force, and the carriage of the carriage, which had been beaten to shreds, was suddenly slashed by her, and the knife was almost at the bottom of the car.

Quinn hugged Lestara tightly, lying on her back on the ground, kicked her feet up, just in time to kick the female assassin's knife wind.

Quinn's back bounced off the ground at the same time, and her body was at a forty-five-degree angle to the ground. With the help of the female assassin's attack, this kick bounced herself and Lestara off the bottom of the car and flew several meters in the air. far distance.

The female assassin was reluctant, and shot out several flying knives, predicting the curve of Quinn's fall in the air. Quinn in the air could not exert force, and would definitely be pierced by these blades in the process of falling.

Hua Luo was one step faster than the flying knife, and the eagle claws grabbed Quinn's shoulders, flapping his wings hard, and actually grabbed Quinn and Lestara, which she was holding, firmly in the air.

Both Quinn and the female assassin stopped attacking.

The arrows of Quinn's hand crossbow have been used up, and the spare arrows are in the ruins of the carriage, so naturally they cannot be taken away now.

The female assassin did not seem to have any intention of continuing to attack, but looked at the two eagles hovering in the sky with interest.

The carriage of the carriage has been completely destroyed, and Luo Ji's body was slashed by the female assassin with the curved blade in his hand when he cut through the carriage, and it went straight into the back of his neck.

"Who are you?" Lestara asked loudly, looking at Luo Ji's body with tears in his eyes, "Why are you attacking us?"

Quinn carefully observed the female assassin, with bright red hair and revealing clothing, she didn't look like a Noxian soldier in appearance, and her skills were by no means comparable to ordinary soldiers.

The female assassin smiled slightly, she shook her long red hair, and she sat directly on Luo Ji's back, with Erlang's legs crossed, and said in Demacian casually, "Don't make such a fuss, Dema. West Asians, isn't it normal for you to enter the land of Noxus without authorization and sacrifice your life?"

Quinn asked Hua Luo to slowly put himself and Lestara down. Seeing that Lestara didn't seem to be injured, Quinn was secretly relieved.

The female assassin looked at the blue falcon with interest: "What kind of bird is this powerful, I want to raise one too."

Quinn didn't answer the female assassin's question. She turned to look at the female assassin: "There is no grudge between us. If you want to steal money, all the property in the carriage can be given to you."

The female assassin giggled: "I didn't come to you for those things."

Quinn frowned: "Then what are you doing?"

The female assassin tilted her head slightly, and a bright smile appeared on her beautiful face: "Of course it's for murder."

Quinn's and Lestara's hearts sank to the bottom at the same time.

"Let's go." Quinn looked at Luo Ji's body with pity, "You have already killed someone, if you still want to fight me, I will die with you."

The female assassin narrowed her eyes and said with a full smile: "Is that so, I'm so scared, but I just like to fight with a powerful guy like you."

Quinn took a deep breath, she stretched out one arm, let Hua Luo stop on her arm, and whispered in a voice that only Hua Luo could hear: "Hu Luo, I will hold her for a while, you immediately bring Lesta Ladies go to a safe place."

Hua Luo hesitated for a second, then nodded.

"Very good." Quinn felt relieved for a while, her partner always knew the overall situation, and sometimes she even suspected that Hua Luo was smarter than herself.

The female assassin licked her lips, and the upcoming fight made her feel unbearably hot: "Out of respect for the strong, let me tell you my name, I'm Katerina."

Quinn took up her posture. She had used up all her arrows. With no weapons at hand, she was in an extremely unfavorable state of confrontation, but she still did not flinch: "It's just a nameless junior, you don't need to know the name."

"Really, what a pity." Katerina shrugged, "I planned to get you a monument after killing you, but now I can only get you a nameless tomb."

Lestara couldn't help but take a step back. The murderous aura from Katarina and the fighting spirit from Quinn made her a little unbearable.

The atmosphere is tense and ready to explode.

The first to move was Katarina. She pulled out the curved blade that was stuck on the corpse below her. The blood-stained blade was as red as her long hair. The blood-red shadow only needed an instant to rush to Quinn.

The blood on the blade splashed on Katarina's body, and this warm feeling always made her more addicted to killing.

"Wait." Katarina suddenly realized something was wrong.

The blood that splashed on her was not only not hot, but rather cold, colder than ice.

The surging hoarfrost suddenly erupted from the body, and the thick snow-white fog completely drowned Katerina in an instant. The bright red girl disappeared into the ice fog and did not rush out.

Quinn and Le Stara were surprised to see the upheaval in front of them, but Hua Luo was the first to react, grabbing Quinn and Le Stara's shoulders with his claws, and tried his best to take the two girls away.

The ice fog spread at an extremely fast speed, and large tracts of forest were engulfed in the fog, and the temperature dropped sharply.

Hua Luo flew far away with Quinn and Lestara, and flew for almost ten minutes in a row before the fog did not continue to catch up.

Quinn looked at the place she was carrying in shock. The place where the ice fog passed was covered in silver, and every inch of land and every leaf was covered with frost, as if the winter had suddenly come.

"Magic..." Lestara said the word with trembling lips, and joy flooded into her heart, "Quinn! He's not dead in Luoji! Let's go back and find him!"

Quinn pressed the beautiful woman's shoulders: "Mrs. Lestara, Luo Ji is already dead, don't you see, his neck is pierced through, it is impossible to live!"

"But...but..." Lestara pointed to the hoarfrost-stained forest.

"It may be the magic that erupted after his death." Quinn guessed, "In short, Luo Ji must have died, but that Katarina doesn't know what happened, we have to leave here quickly, so that we can't be caught up by her! "

"But...but..." Lestara's nose was sour, "but Luoji saved me."

Quinn sighed slightly: "He's a hero, but we can't save him."

Lestara fell to the ground, crying helplessly: "I'm sorry... I'm sorry... First your brother, then Luo Ji... How many people will I kill..."

Quinn hugged Lestara gently for comfort.

A pair of warm wings hugged Quinn, it was Valor.

Quinn's eyes were sore, and she buried her head in Hua Luo's wings.
