"The third watch is over. Tomorrow will be the fourth watch. Persevere until the end of the year and you will be victorious. A perfect period. "
I don't want to die …
Tyrant's voice echoed in the tunnel and traveled further. A few Iron Fur Rats were scared and retreated back into their holes, not daring to make a sound.
After crying, Tyrant felt pain in his eyes. His body had aged tremendously.
He could only take the risk. Tyrant took out two corpses from his bag and laid them in front of him. The two corpses were naked. One was a young man and the other was a young woman.
Both corpses looked normal, but their body structure was perfect. Even for a Magic Shooter, there were no flaws in their bone structure.
Tyrant touched the two corpses and hesitated. It was dangerous for the Ghost to take over another living being's body. Normally, the Ghost would not do it more than three times. After three times, the Ghost's memory would be wiped clean and it would become an idiot.
This was the first time he took over the body of this dwarf. The second time, the success rate was only 60%. If he failed, the corpse he chose would be useless. The success rate for the third time was 40% and there was no choice.
This was extremely dangerous. It was like throwing dice. Specters would never do something like this unless their lives were truly threatened. Tyrant's body was pierced by the Life Arrow. Even if he changed his body, his life would not be long.
However, it was good to live one more day. Tyrant's eyes were filled with hatred. He did not plan to escape. He wanted to stay in the city and wait for another chance to assassinate. He had more or less understood the king's skills. Next time, he would definitely succeed.
Tyrant hesitated and chose the male corpse. As there were very few females in Daliang City, it would be inconvenient for him to move around in the city.
An egg-white translucent shadow slowly separated from Tyrant's midget body. It was Ghost's true form. The Tyrant crawled on top of the man's body and slowly penetrated it.
If it was another living being, it would be troublesome to take over another person's body. It would require a lot of preparation. The Ghost did not need anything. They were in a half-soul state and their talent was control.
After more than two hours, Tyrant had completely entered the human's body. It laid on the ground, slowly familiarizing itself with the new body.
This body was a human powerhouse that Tyrant had poisoned and killed. Tyrant had been a Silver Sword Master back then. If it wasn't for his tough body, he wouldn't have needed more than two hours to enter. As long as he pounced on an ordinary human, his soul would be more or less stolen. This soulless body still refused to accept his existence.
In three days at most, I should be able to recover half of my strength. Tyrant calculated in his heart. He sat up and untied the dwarf's leather bag. He took out some clothes from the bag and put them on.
If it wasn't for the damage I received from the Eye when I was transmigrating, I wouldn't be in such a pathetic state, needing to attach myself to such a trashy body!
Tyrant did not feel happy at all. The spirit race was almost immune to physical attacks. They had a long lifespan and strong spiritual power. But now, his soul needed the protection of his physical body in order to move around on the Myers Continent. Otherwise, just a strong wind could blow him away, and he would no longer be able to condense again.
Moreover, he had a longer lifespan among the spirit bloodlines. Attaching himself to a physical body would reduce the amount of life force he had already expended.
After putting away the female corpse, Tyrant let out a long sigh and found a clean place to sit down again. He had to wait for his strength to recover before he could return to the ground.
To kill the king, he had to kill the elf first. No matter how powerful the king's skill was, he wouldn't be able to kill him in one shot. But if the elf shot another arrow, he would definitely die. The city was still recruiting troops to deal with the Cloud Flow people. He could blend into Salin's army and wait for an opportunity.
If only this wasn't the main plane. In a subcontinent plane, he could kill demons wantonly, devour souls, and heal his injuries. In a subcontinent plane, there was no powerful Vatican, nor was there a terrifying place like Alchemy City. Here, he could only play the role of an assassin, attach himself to the nobles, and slowly look for targets to attack.
Anyway, the people he killed were all wanted by the Professionals Guild. Even if he died, no one would notice.
After Salin was brought to the palace, he first described the assassin to Rex, who rushed over. Rex frowned after hearing it.
"You know this assassin?" Salin was very familiar with Rex. He could guess something from his expression.
"Of course, we can't pursue this. I'll lock down the city. This assassin is heavily injured and can't escape. Just kill him and forget it, "Rex replied gloomily. Of course, she could guess who sent this assassin, but she couldn't be angry.
Now that the Cloud Flow people were behind her, to find trouble with Antoshi? Antoshi probably had hundreds of thousands of troops.
Salin immediately understood. Other than the Vatican, the only one who could send an assassin to kill him was Marquis Antoshi, who had thousands of troops killed by him. But he didn't understand why Rex was so patient and didn't even mention negotiating with Holy Rock City.
"Salin …"
"What?"
"Sigh, let me tell you. When you left the border, Count Bessita reported to me that they were attacked by the Headless Horsemen."
"Headless Horsemen?" Salin's hair stood on end. The Headless Horsemen were nothing to him now. Without the cooperation of others, he could kill hundreds of them. But the appearance of the Headless Horsemen meant that there were black magicians active in this area. The huge number of black puppets was a huge threat to the human army. If the black magicians joined forces with Cloud Flow's troops to attack Great Liang City, it would be troublesome.
"Antoshi's retreating soldiers all died in the wilderness. None of them returned. He thought that you had massacred them all. You did that in Metatlin. Not a single one of the Church's expeditionary forces returned. "
"I left more than a thousand prisoners of war!"
"I know. Those people were killed by the Black Satan."
Salin's mind buzzed. He was a magician, so of course he understood what the Black Satan meant.
"But don't worry. There are two masters chasing after the Black Satan. I don't know what happened to that monster, but he might have been seriously injured when he was resurrected. Otherwise … "
"Did you tell Holy Rock City about this?"
"Of course. Otherwise, Antoshi wouldn't be so quiet. He was worried that the Black Satan would enter his territory."
"Being chased by two human experts … Are those two magicians?"
"I don't know. Those two used an instantaneous skill outside the town and killed two thousand Headless Horsemen. Maybe they're mages …"
"Light divine spell? Do they look like it? "Salin was also very nervous.
"No, but it's not a good thing either." Rex sighed continuously. Things had happened beyond her control. The Black Satan had resurrected. If it weren't for the two humans chasing after him, Jia Loulan would have fallen into a bloodbath. And the two fellows chasing after the Black Satan were obviously not magicians. If they were from the Vatican, there would be no hope for this battle. Someone who could be chased by the Black Satan must be a master above level 10.
There was only one such person in Holy Rock City, and that was Joey. The Vatican could send two at once, and it wasn't the one he knew. There were actually three beings above level 10 in the Tanggulas Empire.
How could they fight this? Unless all the magicians in Alchemy City swarmed out, they wouldn't be able to pose a threat to these people. But the biggest possibility was that Alchemy City had closed its gates and stayed out of trouble.
Rex and Salin couldn't be blamed for thinking too much. Myer had fallen for too long. No one would have thought that there were still two oracles alive under the goddess.
"Before the Black Satan is killed, I'll pretend this never happened." Salin gritted his teeth and gave up on the idea of dealing with Antoshi. He was going to fight for the continent in the future anyway. Antoshi was just a matter of dealing with him later.
Rex forced a smile. Salin was finally different from before. He could make such a decision in just a few breaths' time. However, the two of them had to face the Cloud Flow people now. The situation wouldn't improve even if they gave up on Antoshi.
"Rex, I can defend the Bone Castle, but the Cloud Flow people want to build a city. What should we do?" Salin quickly put down the problem of Antoshi and asked Rex for advice.
"It's very troublesome. Salin, how long will it take to gather another one of your bone fleets?"
Salin smiled bitterly. "I've almost used up all my money. I even brought the Coiled Turtle alchemy ship. Only the Dragon Sea Warship is left in Metatlin City. But it can't be dismantled. Otherwise … "
"What about the Winged Skeletons? How many can you make?"
"Rex, even if you give me the treasury of Holy Rock City, I can't make them. The Winged Skeletons have been working on these warships for more than a year. Can you afford to wait? Also, my warship isn't a match for the Cloud Flow people. They can use their main warships to transport troops slowly. The Coiled Turtle alchemy ship ambushed them once, so it'll be hard to do it again. They'll send the troops over sooner or later. "
Rex and Salin looked at each other. It was as if they were back in the Hell of Divine Punishment. A sense of helplessness spread. Salin finally realized that the seemingly omnipotent Rex could also be so troubled.
"What did Holy Rock City say?" Salin was helpless. He still wanted to solve the problem politically. Why did the Cloud Flow people come to Bitter Water Prefecture? Was it really to marry Rex?
"The prince said that I've already established a country. He has no right to interfere with my marriage," Rex answered indifferently.
Salin's eyes lit up. He pulled Rex's sleeve and asked, "Rex, is that what Sephiroth said?"
Rex blushed. He didn't shake off Salin's hand. "Exactly. That's what he said."
