Speaking of infiltration, everyone looked at the only Magician in the team, Kevin.
Kevin shook his head and said, "Impossible. With my ability, I can at most help one or two people sneak into the city."
Bai Xiaowen said, "Let's think of it another way … We just need to create some chaos in the city and open the gates. The Resistance Army soldiers lying in ambush outside will swarm in, and we can avoid the losses of the siege. There should be some of our people in North County City, right? "
Grima looked at Bai Xiaowen deeply and nodded. "Yes."
Bai Xiaowen understood. With the Usok's talent, it would be strange if they did not plant some spies in North County City.
"Then it's very simple. Since Master Kevin is able to sneak into the city, I'll have to ask Master Kevin to personally enter the city and contact our people. Then, we'll work together to open the city gates," Bai Xiaowen said.
Kevin frowned, his eyes widened, and he almost asked, "Why me?" However, when he saw the eager eyes of the other Resistance Army officers, he swallowed his words and said coldly, "Why don't you go?"
"If I can turn invisible, of course I'm willing to go. It's a great honor," Bai Xiaowen said with a smile.
Kevin snorted. "I have Secondary Invisibility Potion and some arcane spells that can eliminate sound. I can help you sneak in. I'm just worried that you're only saying nice things, but you don't have the guts. "
"Haha, as long as Master Kevin's potion doesn't expire, of course I have no problem." Bai Xiaowen waved his hand and said, "My sister and I can sneak in together. There shouldn't be a problem, right?"
At this time, the way the Resistance Army officers looked at Kevin and Bai Xiaowen was obviously different.
Kevin also felt this. However, he was very thick-skinned and did not mind at all. He said calmly, "No problem."
"Master Kevin, please do it," Bai Xiaowen said.
Kevin took out two bottles of light purple potion and gave them to Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi. Then, he took out two Mute Spell Scrolls.
Bai Xiaowen could see the effects of these two potions with his Insight. They were indeed potions for invisibility. And at this juncture, Kevin wouldn't dare to set him up. He took the potion and drank it in one gulp. Instantly, his figure became illusory. Even if the people present were his allies, they could only see a faint shadow.
Li Shuyi followed suit and drank the Secondary Invisibility Potion.
"Brother Dior, this is the token that we use to communicate with each other. There are also some code words. Remember them well." Grima said in a low voice. There was a hint of admiration in his voice, and the words "Brother Dior" were sincere.
Bai Xiaowen and Grima agreed on a time and set off.
Kevin tore open the Mute Spell Scroll and cast the arcane spell, Mute Spell, on Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi respectively. The two of them were like shadows. They walked silently and quietly sneaked into North County City.
…
In North County City.
The sound of hammering iron could be heard rhythmically. In a blacksmith's shop, Bai Xiaowen and the secret agent of the Northern Territory's resistance army met.
First, they exchanged the code words and then checked the token. Bai Xiaowen quickly gained the trust of the blacksmith named "Auland".
Auland handed over a piece of parchment.
"Lord Dior, this piece of paper shows the distribution of the Imperial Army in North County City. It is the result of my and a few brothers' daily observation," Auland said in a low voice. "Now, Arenas has led a large number of soldiers out of North County, but there are still many experts in the city. You must be careful."
Bai Xiaowen looked at the contents of the parchment. There was a string of names on it. They were all the leaders and experts who stayed in North County City.
"Patrol Captain Massa, patrolling the streets of the city … Chief Judge Hurd, Chief Judge Costello, in the Court of Justice … City Guard Commander Nazr is stationed in the military camp, in charge of commanding after Arenas left … Highlord Glantis is in the North Palace …"
Bai Xiaowen read the list while confirming the other party's location.
As expected of a hero mission. Even if North County's defense was empty, there were still so many leaders. Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi looked at each other, and the same thought flashed through their minds.
"How many people do we have in North County City? How strong are they? "Bai Xiaowen asked.
Blacksmith Auland said, "I only know seven people, and they are all on par with me."
Bai Xiaowen nodded slightly. Auland was a level 7 elite. If there were seven spies with Auland's strength, it would be considered a strong force.
"Gather your brothers and kill the guards at the city gate at the agreed time. Open the city gate and destroy the winch. Let the brothers outside enter the city," Bai Xiaowen ordered softly.
Blacksmith Auland said in shock, "Lord Dior, aren't you going to act with us?"
Bai Xiaowen shook his head and said, "I have a more important mission … I'm going to the military camp to assassinate Commander Nazr! As long as this guy dies, the Imperial dogs in North County City will be in chaos. Our army will be able to occupy North County with fewer losses. "
Auland was filled with respect. At the same time, he was ashamed of his previous thoughts. He saluted the resistance army and said in a deep voice, "Lord Dior, don't worry. My brothers and I will definitely complete the mission and open the city gate!"
"Everything is for the liberation of the North."
Bai Xiaowen said and nodded encouragingly. Then, he and Auland parted ways.
The difficulty of assassinating a commander in the military camp could be imagined. At this time, Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi's Secondary Invisibility Potion and Mute Spell had been removed. The two of them each wore a cloak to cover their faces. They lowered their heads and walked in the direction of the military camp.
Sometimes, plans could not keep up with changes.
"Stop."
Just as Bai Xiaowen could see the sentries standing guard at the entrance of the military camp, a dignified voice stopped him and Li Shuyi.
Leather boots made a sound on the stone paved street. A man wearing fine leather armor and a standard Imperial Army leather helmet walked in front of Bai Xiaowen and continued to say in a dignified voice, "Who are you? Take off your cloak and let me see. "
Behind this man, there were four soldiers from the Imperial Army.
Bai Xiaowen used [Insight] and immediately cursed his bad luck. This armored man was actually the patrol captain on the list, Massa, a level 7 leader.
Massa was an Agility-based Warrior, similar to Li Shuyi. They both relied on their high hand speed and agile footwork to fight head-on. Combined with a little analysis of his skills, Massa's strength wasn't very strong. However, it wasn't a good idea to fight on this street.
Once the battle started, there would be an endless stream of Imperial Army soldiers rushing over.
This would certainly reduce the pressure on Auland and the others at the city gate, but Bai Xiaowen was not the type to sacrifice himself for others.
Therefore, Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi cooperatively took off their cloaks and smiled innocently.
"Sir …"
"I'll ask, and you'll answer." Massa rudely interrupted Bai Xiaowen. "What are your names? Where are you from? Are you locals of North County? "
There was a trap in Massa's question, but of course, Bai Xiaowen would not fall for it. He laughed and made up two very ordinary fake names that were hard to remember. Then, he said, "Sir, we are not locals. We are sailors who came with the fleet. We brought three ships of rice from Satsuma Port …"
Massa nodded slightly. "You are sailors? What is the name of the captain? "
"The captain is called … Burgani Decker, sir."
"Is that so?" Massa's thin face showed a mocking sneer. "Take them away!"
Four Imperial Army soldiers surrounded Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi. Their swords were pointed at their backs. Massa turned and walked towards the north.
"Should we attack?" Li Shuyi asked in a low voice in the team channel.
"Oh, not for now." Bai Xiaowen narrowed his eyes.
The Imperial Army soldiers shouted, "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and follow! The two of you are suspicious! "
Li Shuyi walked behind Bai Xiaowen and asked in a low voice, "Are there any problems with our answers? Where did we slip up? "
Bai Xiaowen thought for a moment. "This guy called Massa should have seen many sailors. He knows what a sailor looks like after being blown by the sea breeze all year round. Maybe some of the details on our bodies do not match the image of a sailor … but he is only suspicious."
After a pause, Bai Xiaowen said, "Massa is not walking towards the military camp. He is walking towards the garrison headquarters further north … This means that he has no intention of reporting directly to Commander Nazir. I think he wants to interrogate us first and report to the higher-ups when the evidence is conclusive."
As expected, the two of them were forced to the interrogation room of the garrison headquarters under the threat of swords and knives.
"Now you have two choices … One, tell the truth, and you will suffer less physical pain. Two, continue to be stubborn, and I will use my whip to have a cordial conversation with you. " A sickly smile appeared on Massa's thin face. He waved his whip in the air, and the tip of the whip exploded in the air.
Bai Xiaowen said calmly, "I don't know what you are talking about, Sir. I am a sailor of the Dirk family's fleet. I demand fair treatment. "
"Sailor?" Massa sneered. "It seems that you think I am blind. You and this fair-skinned girl, which part of you looks like a sailor? You are more like actors in a play. "
"This is our first time sailing on a ship," Bai Xiaowen said calmly. "Maybe you think that I am too handsome to be a sailor, but you can't just look at people on the surface, Sir. I like the sea. "
Li Shuyi's mouth twitched, and he almost laughed out loud.
This was their first time boarding a ship. This reason was impeccable, but Massa felt that something was wrong.
"A rookie sailing for the first time can be so calm in the interrogation room?" Massa slammed the table. "It seems that if I don't teach you a lesson, you won't tell the truth …"
Bai Xiaowen shook his head and sighed. "Sir Massa, you really lack a sense of humor."
"How dare you … Hmm, you know my name?" Massa's eyes turned cold. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly heard a commotion outside.
Two Imperial Army soldiers rushed over and shouted hurriedly, "Captain Massa, it's not good! The rebels … the rebels have entered the city! "
"What? Quickly report to the commander … "
Massa was shocked, and he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his back! He groaned, and the whip in his hand rolled backward like a poisonous snake, entangling the shadow assassin who was sneaking up on him. He exerted force and threw the shadow assassin, who hit the wall and slid down slowly.
Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi moved at the same time. Their targets were the two Imperial Army soldiers standing behind them.
Li Shuyi drew his sword, turned around, and stabbed one of the Imperial Army soldiers in the heart, killing him on the spot! Bai Xiaowen's movements were even simpler. He bent his elbow and hit the other Imperial Army soldier, causing blood to spurt out of his mouth. Then the Skeleton Warrior appeared behind him and chopped him to death.
Bai Xiaowen smiled and looked at Massa. "Sir Massa, there's no need to trouble yourself. After you die, I'll personally look for your commander. "
"You … are indeed spies from the rebels!" Massa clenched his teeth and tore off the hem of his shirt, wrapping it tightly around his chest to reduce the heavy bleeding to light bleeding. At this time, a few of his trusted soldiers had already rushed over to Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi to engage in a fierce battle.
Massa drew his sword and was about to join the battle when a sudden gust of wind came from behind him. He hurriedly leaned to the side to avoid the attack and suddenly realized that a purplish-black fog had spread all around him. It was as if he had fallen into a swamp.
He turned around and saw a hideous and ugly corpse monster dressed like the Brown Tribe from Hanmo Province. It was emitting a disgusting purplish-black fog all over. It was waving a giant snake club and smashing it toward his head again.
Although the giant snake club was powerful, it was not fast. Massa nimbly dodged it with a leap and circled to the side of the corpse monster, thrusting his sword like a venomous snake.
However, when the sword pierced the corpse monster, Massa felt weak. It was as if the sword had pierced the skin of a rhinoceros. It was abnormally slow and only caused a small wound. It was completely different from the expected wound that the sword would pierce through the body and go deep into the hilt.
Massa forced himself to endure this strange feeling. With a flick of his wrist, he stabbed out three times in a row! He had already used his skills.
Massa's "Three Consecutive Stabs" was extremely skillful. It was ruthless and accurate. The three stabs hit the Butcher's waist, armpit, and crotch respectively. Obviously, he was trying to find out where the Butcher's vital points were. However, the Butcher took the three stabs as if he did not feel anything. The giant snake club hit Massa's waist.
Massa's attack had caused damage and was a little slow in retracting it. Originally, with his Agility, even if he used the same move, it would not be a problem for him to dodge the Butcher's club. However, he had neglected the decaying effect of the surrounding decaying toxin.
The decaying toxin's decaying ratio was not high, but for an Agility expert like Massa who walked on the edge of a knife, the slightest mistake could lead to a huge deviation. It could be said that the slightest mistake could lead to a huge error. He originally thought that he could dodge the club, but he did not manage to dodge it in time. His waist was grazed, and he felt a burning pain.
"Damn it …"
