Chapter 6 I hate those who come out in times of crisis to take advantage of the fire
The sneak attacker in the dark retreated with one blow, leaving no traces. Therefore, not to mention the appearance characteristics, Su Wen could not even see his body shape and outline. In this sewer where the light was so dim that even the five fingers could not see clearly, the scattered debris and abandoned bottles became excellent cover at this time; the surroundings were quiet, and only the faint sound of running water echoed, Su Wen glanced at the darkness attacked by the assassin, but gained nothing.
He knew that he was in big trouble.
This is probably a professional assassin.
Almost all cities have various secrets hidden in the sewers, and if these secrets are broken by reckless intruders, no one will mind a fresh corpse in the canal. Su Wen has no time to care whether all this is a deceptive arrangement of the system, nor does he want to know what the so-called invisible secret is. He only knows that he must not die for the second time in this world - that is too embarrassing to the face of the time traveler.
silence……
The assassin's boots may have undergone special treatment. Su Wen has never heard any footsteps other than himself from beginning to end, so it is obviously unlikely to rely on the sound positioning. However, in this narrow sewer, Su Wen at least does not need to worry too much about the attack coming from behind. After all, the land surface of the entire sewer is less than five meters wide, and the attacker cannot get under his nose... Damn!
As soon as he made the inference of safety behind him, Su Wen suddenly felt the sound of breaking through the air behind him.
Before the wave of the blade touched his body, he was so nervous that he immediately turned toward the pile of debris beside him, and he almost avoided the second attack.
Su Wen felt that he was really an idiot. Not to mention that there might not be only one attacker. Just because this is their home court, it is not surprising that a secret passage can be opened on the wall that can be circumvented.
However, Su Wen was alert this time. While rolling, he also glanced behind him and finally saw the appearance of the sneak attacker: Although the detailed look was naturally impossible to see clearly because of his back to the light, judging from the outline, the assassin seemed to have a severe hunchback - its head was less than one meter, its body was bent like an arch, and the short knife in his hand emitted extremely dangerous reflections.
The reason why "it" is used to describe this assassin is because Su Wen noticed one thing: the faint traces of fuzz on the outline of the assassin. Therefore, the other party is likely not a human.
Another blow is back...
Less than half a second after Su Wen saw the outline of the sneak attacker, the latter flew back into the distance and disappeared into Su Wen's vision in an instant.
At this moment, his rolling movement was just completed.
"call……"
Su Wen had already sweated a cold sweat behind him. The decisive, ruthless and extremely fast speed of the sneak attacker was really a bit terrible. Compared with his last frustrated death experience, those killing his robbers were like children who had not been weaned yet. Now Su Wen is no longer the Wushu who has just entered the other world and is unconscious, but even so, he still has no confidence in dealing with the assassin.
Another silence...
Su Wen half-squatted in the abandoned grocery pile, leaning against a huge wooden table with his back on his back, looking around, trying to find weapons that could be used. Because of the knife-ban order in Trides City, any weapon included in the controlled knives is not allowed to be brought to the street, so Su Wen, who wore a mage robe to go to the Magic Academy early in the morning, only had more than a dozen silver coins and keys to his home, and nothing else.
Oh by the way, there is not nothing. In fact, there is also a certificate of graduation hidden in her close-fitting pocket and a letter of introduction signed by Professor Lila...
But it's useless.
After glanced around again, Su Wen could not find anything that could be used as a weapon: if you think about it, you will know how they could appear in the garbage dump in the sewer? So, in desperation, he picked up a thick and long table leg without a trace, but then he found that it had been corroded by the solid wood texture, and there were still several termites crawling out inside, so he had to throw it out again quickly.
"Bang..."
The decayed wood was thrown onto the stone slab and broken into two pieces, making a dull sound.
And it was at this time that the third attack came without warning!
'above!'
Su Wen suddenly felt his scalp numb, and he suddenly discovered that the assassin had climbed up to the wooden table he regarded as a cover, and was stabbing from above the ground!
This time, Su Wen had no room for a move to dodge. The opponent's dagger had already blocked the direction of dodging forward. If that was done, it would only be possible to cut off the back of the neck with one knife. There were a large amount of debris on both sides of the left and right. Behind him was a solid wooden table. At first glance, Su Wen had no way out and could only wait for the neck to be killed. Even if he understood that there was a serious mistake in his dodging position, it might be too late.
but……
"Don't underestimate me too much!"
Suddenly, Su Wen did not retreat but advanced, and poked out his hand at a speed that even he could not believe, and grabbed the spatula light. The sharp blade instantly cut deep into his palm, even into the white bones, but this seemed to have no effect. His palm went deeper, pressed the knife-holding hand, and then used force forward, driving the entire body of the sneak attacker, and smashed it forward with all his strength...
Everything happened too quickly. The assassin, who thought he was successful, was in mid-air when he jumped off the wooden table placed horizontally, so he had no room for dodging. He was hit by Su Wen's suicide counterattack. His short body instantly collided violently with the hard stone slab.
"Bang!"
Accompanied by the sound of collision, there was also the assassin's wail, but in Su Wen's ears, the sound was a little familiar. He always felt like... the rat that was caught by a trapped mouse, and the scream that was about to die would make.
mouse?
Su Wen vaguely thought about something, but whether it was the severe pain from his palm or the monster in front of him who wanted to get up and fight against him, he had to let go of this guess.
After finally changing the offensive and defensive state, how could it make you turn over?
The next moment, Su Wen's blood-soaked palm suddenly twisted. The absolute power gap made the short knife in the assassin's hand slide off. At the same time, his left hand, which had been clenched into a fist, had already rushed out, and the corner of the fist hit the assassin's spine...
"Squeak!"
The short attacked and wailed again with a mouse-like wail.
But at the same time, lying on the ground and struggling desperately, it did not stop, but touched its back with its free right hand. There was also a sharp backup dagger hidden there. As long as it could be taken and then stabbed at this human, it would be able to reverse again in this desperate battle...
Everything went smoothly, its movements were not discovered. It touched the wooden handle of the dagger. He easily pulled out the dagger, but just as he was about to turn over and launch the fourth sneak attack, an excited voice came from his ears.
"Ha, I found my head."
The human said.
Then, it found that its pointed chin and the back of its head were pressed at the same time. The scenery in its sight suddenly twisted, and the whole world instantly fell into absolute darkness...
...
"Ho-hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Su Wen threw down the body in his hand whose neck was broken, and ignored the dust on the ground that had not been cleaned for a long time, and sat down and gasped violently.
At the same time, although he successfully survived, he felt a little strange.
Why, this feeling...
Very familiar?
The threat of death, the battle to sacrifice one's life, the simple and rough solution, and the disgust and fear that did not exist at all when facing the corpse that he killed himself with his own hands are all so familiar - but if Su Wen remembered correctly, this was probably the first time he killed someone in his memory?
so……
What did you do before you travel through time? Could it be that it was really a waste house that was useless and should be thrown into an unrecyclable trash can?
Su Wen thought about it carefully, and then suddenly realized that this familiar feeling had actually appeared when he was on the verge of death last time: On that dark night, Su Wen, who was surrounded by robbers, was lying in the heavy rain in blood. The cold rain washed away the blood from his wounds and kept taking away his remaining body temperature; however, Su Wen, who was about to die, opened his eyes wide and looked at the sky, and there was no fear in his mind with an extremely calm mind, as if death was just a sleep...
However, after that, the feeling was interrupted by the sudden appearance of the cheating system, so that Su Wen once thought that it was just the norm when humans were on the verge of death and had never cared about it. And until today, when he killed this assassin who looked a bit like a mouse and wanted to sneak attack his own assassin, Su Wen discovered that he was the same as himself that day: calm, numb, decisive, and treats life as nothing...
"Tsk, no matter what, now isn't the time to think about this."
Su Wen looked at his palms that were constantly bleeding and took the initiative to interrupt his thoughts flying all over the sky.
It is definitely not without a price to seize the blade with empty hands. Although they are both alien races, this rat man is obviously taller than the group of weak dog-headed men yesterday. The dive and piercing force is ridiculously strong, and the short knife in his hand is even more powerful. At this time, Su Wen's palm was almost torn into two pieces by the blade. If it weren't for the blockage of the metacarpal bone, it might have been divided into two. Feeling the huge pain caused by the wound, Su Wen felt that he could no longer stay in the sewer. The danger brought by not seeking medical treatment in time is secondary. If this creature that looks like a human and a rat has accomplices, wouldn't that be bad?
However, just when Su Wen stood up and planned to return the same way...
"Gaga, you can even kill my servant. What a good young man!"
Listening to the sudden sneer coming from not far away, Su Wen's eyes turned dark.
He really wanted to slap himself twice, why can't he control the crow's mouth?
Soon, accompanied by loud footsteps, a figure wrapped in a black cloak passed through the sewer full of miscellaneous objects and appeared in Su Wen's sight. Against the backdrop of the cloak, the figure looked very tall. The gap in the cloak deep in his withered palm was holding a black wooden scepter inside. At the top of the scepter was a skull covered with brown gems.
"The reaction ability of the taboo rat man is close to the forbidden rat man, plus the physical strength equivalent to the intermediate knight, hahaha, it's really a good guy."
While Su Wen was looking at the man in black, the latter was also looking at Su Wen quietly, then nodded with satisfaction, and laughed hoarsely.
"Now is a critical period for adults. If you give you as a gift, maybe he will be very happy."
After the words came, Su Wen found that in a quiet moment, five rats had emerged from the dark pile of debris. They were obviously the same as the corpse on the ground. At this time, they were all deeply arched with their furry brown bodies and surrounded themselves in a charge posture, as if they could launch a fatal raid at any time. With the help of the dim magic light, Su Wen also saw the short swords held by these rats, which were exactly the same as those on the ground.
Such a sword-holding rat man almost killed Su Wen by just one, and now he was facing five, plus a man in black robe standing not far away and sneering, looking mysterious.
Really, there is no way out...
Su Wen is no longer able to curse the system.
But at this moment, the familiar voice of the system suddenly rang.
