Vlad looked at the grass on the roadside in horror, and then a black figure jumped out of the grass, like a cheetah lying in wait in the dark, getting down on all fours and running towards Vlad on the road.

Chase after.

The black shadow was incredibly fast, approaching Vlad at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Seeing that he was getting closer and closer, Vlad's heart tensed up and his face looked frightened. He felt Mo Hu under him begin to become restless due to the approaching black shadow. Vlad decisively drew out his dagger and slapped it hard with the back of the sword.

Mo Hu's scratch was in pain. Mo Hu howled at the top of his lungs and sped towards the far distant city gate hidden in the darkness in his vague memory.

"Closer, closer, the fire is getting clearer and clearer!"

Suddenly, Vlad felt a cold light streak toward his neck. Almost at the same time, the demon blood in his body told him that this was not an illusion, and Vlad controlled his body to fall to one side.

And the moment he raised his head and fell to the left of Mo Hu, he saw a tail with a flying knife attached to it whipping towards him like a whip, almost wiping it from his neck.

Pass.

Although Vlad avoided this fatal blow, his body fell hard to the ground due to inertia.

"Bang"

There was a muffled sound, and Vlad's back fell hard to the ground.

Mo Hu felt a light touch on his back and fled away, leaving only a trail of smoke and dust.

The moment he landed, Vlad felt a gust of wind coming from his ears. He felt danger almost instinctively. His body kept rolling to the side with the help of inertia, almost grazing his hair and a dagger was inserted fiercely.

The position where Vlad's head just rested.

Vlad finally got up from the ground in embarrassment, ignoring the pain in his back and the stinging pain in his knees from the uneven stones on the ground when he rolled.

Vlad looked forward and saw a black figure on all fours about two meters away slowly standing up from the ground and smoothly pulling out the dagger inserted into the ground.

The dark shadow is not tall, and judging from its figure, it must be a woman. Because the moonlight is behind it, the face cannot be seen clearly, but the ears seem to be a little pointed, and a tail with a murder weapon behind it swings naturally.

"Who are you? Who sent you to kill me? What reward did the person who sent you murder me give you? I have the ability to pay you ten times. I believe you know my identity and should know that I have this ability!"

A magnetic and deep female voice sounded, "Of course I know your identity, my dear Sixth Prince, Lord of Methos Province."

"However, although you are noble, you are not able to give me ten times the reward, because the reward is freedom!"

As she said this, she saw her holding the dagger across her chest and using her feet to attack Vlad directly.

Vlad guessed that this woman should be the kind of otaku killer who has been trained since childhood. Before he finished saying this, he was about to take action and return his freedom. You are not a freedom fighter.

"What freedom? Who limits your freedom? I can give you freedom!"

"Hmph, you are so self-righteous!" The woman snorted coldly, bent her knees, exerted force under her feet, and shot towards Vlad like an arrow from a string.

Damn, this female assassin is quite ruthless and will try her best to kill a weakling.

"Hold on, is there someone in the city to pick you up?"

"Too much nonsense, die!"

The woman jumped up, her speed almost turning into an afterimage, and she was in front of Vlad in the blink of an eye.

The dagger was inserted straight into Vlad's throat. Seeing the dagger so close at hand, Vlad felt a chill all over his body.

Just then, "Bang!"

There was a loud bang, followed by continuous noises.

"Bang! Bang! Bang..."

The female killer slowly fell backwards. Finally, the bloody moonlight penetrated the darkness, revealing a beautiful face that turned all living beings upside down, filled with disbelief. Then it turned into a trace of sadness, which was mixed with regret, and finally turned into relief.

Vlad had complicated emotions. For the first time, he saw the last emotional changes of a living person when facing death.

Finally, he fired hard and pulled the trigger, and the bullet slanted down from the silver barrel.

"Bang! Bang! Bang..."

There were a few loud noises and everything was silent.

Vlad only glanced at the twitching corpse lying on the ground, and the white face slowly dyed red by the bright red blood spilling from the corners of the red mouth.

"The moonlight is like blood, a murderous night! Don't blame me. If you want to blame, blame your own negligence." After saying this, Vlad did not forget to blow the tip of the gun in a pretentious manner.

In fact, if you look closely, you can see that Vlad’s hand holding the gun is shaking unconsciously!

Vlad was very angry in his heart. His Royal Highness, a model prince who cares about the people and works hard for the people, there are still people who want to plot to kill him. Damn it, there are indeed unruly people among the people!

Vlad raised his head and looked at the west gate of Hero City, which was still lying quietly in the darkness not far away. At this moment, Vlad felt that the city he lived in was very strange. There was no trace of the vast giant city lying on the horizon.

Your own place of refuge.

Vlad knew that this was not an illusion. The distance was so close. First there was Mo Hu's roar, and then Vlad's gunfire, but there was no movement from Ximen.

It is impossible for all the city guards on the west gate to be deaf. Since they are not deaf, there was such a big movement. As the city guards who specialize in protecting the Hero City, they should have sent people to check, but there was no movement from beginning to end.

It is not difficult to guess that there must be something wrong with the city guards, and there must be something fishy about how these terrorists who assassinated His Royal Highness dared to ambush on the way to Hero City. Now it seems that there must be some connection.

Since there is a problem with the City Guards, there must be something wrong with the four major families that control the City Guards. I don't know which family has the problem, or, in a worse situation, all four families have problems.

Thinking about this, Vlad couldn't help but shudder. In fact, he didn't even know how he provoked the secret enemy. He had only been in the territory for less than ten days and he just wanted to prey on the people, but it was too late to compete with the people for profit.

Ah, first there were rumors, and now with the assassination that has begun, it is indeed not easy to be a prince, let alone the little prince of the devil in a cunning and cruel world!

"And since someone wants to murder me, how is the city lord's palace doing now, how is the little maid Anne doing now, and how is the tauren guard doing?"

"Also, is the butler Oceans housed in the Heroes' Cemetery outside the city? Or in the City Lord's Mansion? Has he been plotted against?"

Vlad was worried and his face became more serious and heavy.

He opened the magazine of the pistol and loaded the bullets exchanged from the mall one by one. The sound of metal friction made by the bullets hitting the magazine slowly calmed Vlad's restless heart.

The Desert Eagle in his hand was exchanged from the mall, and it cost him a full 8,000 magic dragon coins, and each bullet cost 500 magic dragon coins. Arms are really expensive, but they can save lives and are really worth it!

He redeemed this Desert Eagle from the mall early just in case.

Everything was ready, with the pistol slanted on his waist, Vlad glanced at the nearby city gate, turned his head to look in the direction he came from, and then glanced at the dark fields on the left and right, lowered his head and thought, and finally raised his head.
