[First Update]
Sicar hated the assassin to the extreme, so he couldn't let the assassin die. The assassin couldn't even commit suicide now. Sicar returned to the child's side and had a few demons in the middle, using their bodies to protect the child. Surrounding them were the Caucasian Warriors. Sicar held his club and searched around.
There were still three miles from the pier to the shrine. The enemy's attack this time had a spy. Otherwise, they wouldn't know the pattern of their movements. However, this spy's level was definitely low, or else he would know that there were magic cannons installed on the white stone mountain. The attack of the magic cannons forced the assassin to use a precious teleportation scroll to come to the shore.
When the assassin was in the water, Sicar didn't notice that there was a powerful figure hidden among them.
After the green aura entered the assassin's body, it directly drilled into his lungs. It took root and sprouted, turning into a green plant. The assassin felt his breathing become difficult. His heartbeat slowed down, and his sword energy could no longer be used. His whole body was limp.
A Caucasian Warrior grabbed him by the hair. The assassin's limbs were torn off, and his wounds were now scarred. The color of the scars was dark brown, and they looked like burls on a tree. The team moved slowly. On the white stone mountain, the magic furnace started operating. Two Mages and two Caucasian Warriors controlled the huge magic cannons, turning the muzzle towards the city. They used alchemy binoculars to search for suspicious targets.
The magic alarm had already been secretly sent to the magic towers. There were two magic towers near the pier, each guarded by a 9th rank High Mage.
Salin's child was attacked. Thirty-six magic towers operated at the same time, sealing off Metatlin City.
It was impossible for anyone to leave Metatlin City. The layout of these magic towers guaranteed that there would be at least six magic towers in a certain area to attack together.
Metatlin City's area was not much larger than Great Liang City, but it had four times the number of magic towers. It was impossible for the enemy to suppress the magic towers. Metatlin City's walls were also magic buildings. White stones were piled according to Dante's sequence, increasing the power of the magic towers to a terrifying degree.
Compared to Holy Rock City, Metatlin City only lacked a set of large magic amplifiers.
Under heavy protection, Sicar didn't dare to let his guard down. The teleportation scroll that appeared from the Vatican was too terrifying. Before the magic tower's defenses were up, it could actually teleport him to the approximate location.
In the middle of the pier and the temple, the ground suddenly shook violently. The six Magic Towers immediately locked onto this position. Someone tried to sneak into the temple in the sewers and triggered the magic array.
Metatlin's Divine Temple had a secret passage that connected directly to the port. There were dozens of checkpoints in the middle, all of which were advanced magic arrays. All of Salin's submersible warships set off from underwater and would never float above the water. There were three passageways. The passageway that Salin took was extremely deep, and no one knew about it. The other two passageways were connected to the camps of the Divine Hall Legion, and more people knew about them.
The vibration came from one of the tunnels. Fifty meters underground, a middle-aged man with a well-proportioned body was curled up in a hole that had been cut by a weapon. This tunnel was made entirely of white stone. He had used all his strength, but he could only make a shelter.
The passage was filled with poisonous gas, and the rays of magic shot everywhere, trapping him in place. This Assassin was wearing soft magic armor, and the weapon in his hand was a small blade shield.
The Assassin's face was pale. When he passed by a magic array just now, he didn't see through the trap. After destroying the surface magic array, the real attack was triggered, and his leg was injured. The Assassin's most important thing, speed, was restricted. He didn't know how to leave. There were no forks in this tunnel, and there were powerful magic arrays in front and behind him. The information he received was not accurate at all. This tunnel was a dangerous place.
Should he go forward or turn back? The Assassin hesitated, but then he saw a group of huge bugs in front of him, flashing with blue light, swarming toward him. The poisonous gas in the tunnel was spat out by these bugs.
Without hesitation, the Assassin jumped out of his hiding place and smashed the wall opposite him with his blade shield. He twisted his body and dodged the wind blades shooting up from the ground.
Salin had originally built the tunnel to build an underground city. However, the environment here was extremely strange. The entire city was built on a huge white rock. This white rock was harder than steel. Salin couldn't carve out an underground city with it. He only dug some warehouses, water pipes, and channels to drain sewage.
Of these three tunnels, only the bottom one was really used to transport soldiers. Back then, Salin didn't have the help of Magic Shooters, so Metatlin City wasn't safe. Only the Temple managed it carefully. Of course, it had to be open to the docks, so he could escape with the Coiled Turtle Alchemy Ship at any time.
The two tunnels above could only be safely passed by people wearing the Temple badge. Otherwise, the magic array connected to the magic tower could become a fatal trap at any time. The Assassin's information was outdated. Salin now had 36 level nine Magic Shooters to help defend the city, and the defense circle had expanded to outside the city. These two tunnels were useless. They were all opened for defense, and in the future, they would only be used to transport secret goods.
Enemies appeared in the secret tunnel. The demons of the Temple Legion didn't bother to come in and search, so they directly released the magic bugs. These magic bugs were combat type. Each magic bug left the mark of the Temple Legion in the magic array, so they wouldn't cause any reaction from the magic array or the magic tower. The demons' simple and violent method was the best way to deal with the Assassin. In the blink of an eye, the Assassin was surrounded by thousands of big bugs. In the tunnel, the poison was so thick that it could directly corrode the skin. This Assassin didn't have any equipment to breathe, so it was only a matter of time before he died.
The Vatican's Assassins appeared in Metatlin City at the same time. They used different methods to sneak in, but they had never reached the Temple, so they didn't know how the core of the city worked. This time, they attacked from different angles. These Assassins wanted to trap Silva and her child at the docks.
At this moment, Silva had passed through the tunnel above and went straight to the Temple under the protection of the magic tower.
At this time, the seeds in the lungs of the assassin captured by Shika had completely matured. Green branches drilled out of his mouth and nose like vines, wrapping around the assassin's head. The assassin was in a daze and could not commit suicide even if he wanted to. Silva said that as long as he didn't die, he really wouldn't die.
The control ability of the Nature Priest was very strong. Even though Silva had advanced from the Battle Priest branch, she still had a lot of control skills.
This Assassin was held by a spear by his belt and carried on the shoulder of a Gaugass Warrior. More demons gathered around, blocking the sight of the people outside.
A patrol team appeared in the distance. On the white stone mountain near the docks, magic cannons fiercely bombarded. The magic alarm had already been secretly transmitted to every sentry post. The patrol teams had long since been forbidden to move. All the patrol teams had been replaced by the Temple Legion.
The demons chosen by Salin were all around five meters tall. Human giants were at most three meters tall, so it was impossible to pretend to be demons.
These Assassins would never be able to find a way through Metatlin City's defense system. The 36 magic towers could give orders to every team, and even individual soldiers could be commanded.
Assassins couldn't pretend to be Metatlin's patrol team or even a tree. Even the trees in Metatlin City had a certain level of intelligence. They were plants researched by the elves.
Half of the patrol team that was hit by the magic cannons died. The magic cannons attacked from above, sweeping almost the entire team. The high temperature also injured the remaining assassins. Their skin was softened by the heat, and they had to take off their bodies. This team of assassins originally used poison attacks. As long as they got close to the target, they would release a powerful poison gas that could even kill high-level professionals.
The magic cannons' attacks rendered the Assassins' poisons useless. Under the high temperature, all the poison was purified. After the magic cannons attacked, a team of demons appeared and chopped the remaining assassins into meat paste.
By the time Silva's team passed through, the ground had already been cleaned up. Not even a bone was left behind.
In Metatlin City, the assassination arranged by the Church was still going on. The assassins in each segment didn't have any contact with the others. This method could ensure the confidentiality of the mission, but they couldn't make any mistakes during the actual execution.
The assassins didn't make any mistakes. The ones who made mistakes were the commanders of the Church. The information obtained by the person who planned this operation wasn't a secret of Metatlin City.
The people inside the temple came out to welcome them. They were even more powerful Caucasian Warriors. Under Zola's lead, there were also three Magic Shooters who brought Silva's two children safely into the temple. After Silva became a Nature Priest, she could directly see the inner thoughts of the Caucasian Warriors. It wouldn't work if the Church's people pretended to be Caucasian Warriors.
All the Caucasians with different intentions were banished from Metatlin City by Silva.
Returning to the temple, Silva chose a room on the second floor and used a rope to hang the captured assassin. The two children were taken by Eleanor to Jason's side. Silva didn't want the children to see this.
Silva stood in front of the assassin. Now that the assassin's head was facing down, the height of his face was right at Silva's head.
Silva looked at the assassin. As her gaze moved, the leaves of the green plant covering the assassin's face opened, revealing the assassin's face. Silva asked bluntly, "Tell me, who sent you here? Tell me, and I'll allow you to die."
Only then did the assassin regain his ability to speak. When he realized his situation, he screamed. The plant that came out of his nostrils twisted, turning his scream into a painful wail.
"I know you're from the Church. I just want to ask who planned this plan and who the traitor of Metatlin City is. Even if you don't tell me, I can still slowly find out. If you tell me, you can die. "
"I won't tell you, otherwise …"
