Okay, good sir, don't be impulsive, I'll go now." The thief was startled.

Jon's idea was simple. As long as he was sure that there was indeed a wooden statue here, he would go to the dock area gangsters and find a way to get a bundle of explosives.

Just blow this place up to the sky.

Even if the statue survives, the explosion will definitely attract the attention of the authorities.

On the quiet bank of the river, Jon leaned against a tree trunk, quietly watching the thief rummaging around in the mezzanine of the almost rotten wooden boat.

Once an abnormal event occurs, Jon will use shadow jumping to run away decisively.

"What are you looking for?"

Suddenly, a deep male voice came from above Jon's head.

At that moment, Jon felt that the hairs all over his body were almost standing upside down, and he broke out in a cold sweat.

Jon decisively opened his magic eye and wanted to perform a shadow jump.

But the moment the magic eye was opened, Jon felt as if cold water had been poured on his head, and he instantly calmed down.

"Having been hidden by his side for so long, is he also an assassin? A shadow? A hidden monk? A hypnotist? Or did he use a spell to hide himself?"

"My shadow jump can only jump about thirty meters, and this person has been lurking nearby for so long. He is at least a Sequence 7. I will most likely not be able to get rid of him after just a few shadow jumps."

"So the top priority now is to determine who he is and whose side he is on."

Jon thought to himself, taking a few steps back, holding the pistol tightly in his hand, and looked up at the man.

This man was standing quietly on the tree with his hands on the branches. He was about 1.9 meters tall and looked very tall. He had brown hair and his face looked a little stiff, giving people a lifeless feeling.

"Who are you?"

Jon asked him.

"Answer my question first!"

The man asked condescendingly, his eyes cold and fierce.

"What are you doing here?"

As he said this, the man came to Jon's back in an instant, and at the same time Jon felt the cold barrel of the gun being pointed at his back, which corresponded to his heart.

Shadow jumps!

"He is a Night Shadow? He is a member of the Church of the Dead!"

Jon was shocked, but at the same time he breathed a sigh of relief. It would have been even more troublesome if it was an official person. After all, he couldn't explain the reason for his arrival.

And if he is discovered to be an embalmer, he will most likely be labeled a cultist.

Without thinking, Jon pretended to be a little panicked and replied, "Don't kill me, I'm also a member of the church."

"Idiot, tell me who sent you?"

The man fired a shot into the air, then quickly drew his gun and pointed it at Jon's back.

"Eneko, it's Eneko, sir."

Jon replied immediately, pretending to be frightened by the gunshot.

At the same time, Jon thought to himself, "Fortunately, I didn't wear Eneko's earrings on my ears, otherwise it might have been dangerous."

Eneko's earrings do not require piercing to be worn. Rather than being earrings, they are more like small gemstones that can be attached to the earlobe.

"Oh, this idiot, didn't you tell him to come and get it in person?"

The brown-haired man took back his pistol as he spoke.

"You go back and tell him that the idol is lost, damn it."

"Okay, sir."

Jon nodded and walked forward, planning to leave here first.

However, Jon had just taken two steps when he heard the man continue to say, "Wait, what's your name?"

Jon didn't have time to think of a new name. He was mainly afraid that taking too long to reply would arouse his suspicion, so he could only reply casually, "Cline Moretti, sir."

The man didn't think much. He walked in front of Jon and looked down at Jon. "Call me Bain. Where is Eneko? I happen to be looking for him too. Please take me there."

"Okay, Mr. Bain, please follow me."

"Trouble." Jon thought to himself, while replying and thinking about how to deal with the current situation.

"Wait." Bain moved his wrist and made a clicking sound.

"First deal with the rats you brought."

His figure disappeared in an instant and appeared behind the thief who had already taken advantage of Bain and Jon's conversation to escape.

Jon turned around and looked at his back.

There was a burst of joy in my heart, "What a great opportunity!"

At the same time, the black color of Jon's pupils began to deepen, as if strange colors appeared.

A whirlpool seemed to appear on Bain's back, just when his body was about to be twisted and broken.

A dark shadow replaced Bain's figure.

"Damn, who are you."

At this time, Bain, who had lost an arm and was exposed to a large area of ​​bright red flesh, walked out of the shade of a tree on the side.

At this time, he was holding a bright red gem in his hand, which seemed to be squirming with flesh and blood, but it was obvious that the gem had been broken into two halves.

The unknown thief looked back, was so frightened that his liver and gallbladder split, his face turned pale, and he ran even harder.

At this time, neither Jon nor Baine had time to pay attention to the thief.

The colors in Jon's twisted eyes rotated rapidly again, but at the moment of activation, Bane turned into a ball of shadow and escaped.

Jon was not surprised. While putting on Eneko's earrings, he also turned into a shadow and performed a shadow flicker. At the same time, he used his breath to block it and hid in the shadow of a tree.

Blah blah blah.

The sound of the Hoy River hitting its banks is not loud.

It was already approaching dusk, and the mottled light and shadow shone on the river bank, giving people a sense of tranquility.

Jon held his breath, holding several poison-tempered blades in his hands, and secretly observed everything around him, especially the surrounding shadows.

Now is the time for the two assassins to face off.

Bain was seriously injured when he lost the opportunity. Due to the injury, he could not escape. Even if he wanted to escape, he could not escape far. At the same time, he could not hide for too long and lurk in the shadows.

Both the ability and the ability to block breath require constant consumption of spirituality. Maintaining this state for a long time is something that a seriously injured "Dark Night Shadow" cannot bear, unless he ignores the risk of losing control.

However, Jon's condition wasn't much better.

Unlike Bane, he cannot hide in the shadows.

Because long-term use of Night Shadow's ability to lurk will consume a lot of his spirituality.

This is something that a Sequence 9 Beyonder cannot bear.

His limit is to maintain the status of a Sequence 8 assassin and use breath blocking to hide himself.

The price of doing this is that as time goes by, Bain will be the first to discover Jon.

Jon could only hope that Bain would be the first to reveal his flaws due to his injury.

But this is unrealistic. Even if a "Night Shadow" is seriously injured, his spirituality is definitely much stronger than Jon, a half-hearted embalmer.

But there is no other way.

Jon couldn't even place his hopes on Eneko's earrings, because the earrings' ability could only affect those who could see it, and once Jon was seen by him, by the time the effect of the earrings was triggered, Jon would have been a
Chapter completed!
