The Iron Nation's military forces were all concentrated at the border.
They used three military fortresses to form a defensive line and gathered the military forces of nine legions.
Among them, Rhine City was right behind the military fortresses. It provided war resources and soldiers to the three military fortresses.
Rhine City was a large granary at the frontline of the border. William wanted to kill the city lord of Rhine City to establish his dominance.
This seemed rash. It would be more beneficial to secretly burn the resources.
But William's actions were to provoke a war. He did not want to weaken the combat power of the Iron Nation. Weakening the nation's power was not beneficial to him.
Now, the Iron Nation was using all sorts of dirty methods to attract the hearts of the players. William had to destroy this.
He rarely used soul magic, so he was not afraid of being recognized. Even if he was recognized, what could he do?
The Black Lava Nation would still be the scapegoat. Even if the Iron Nation knew that William was the culprit, they could not do anything.
"You keep thinking about my City of Dawn. I've already sent myself to your doorstep. Let's see how you kill me." William looked at the city lord's personal guards who had surrounded him. He charged forward without looking back.
The 30 middle-level personal guards who had just arrived were not pushovers. The level 50 shield-bearer at the front roared, "Charge! Kill the assassin and protect the city lord!"
"Protect your grandpa." William glanced at the fool and then at the city lord who was secretly observing from the window.
He immediately took out his bow and arrow. His hands instantly condensed soul energy and formed a blue arrow. Then, he shot it.
The blue arrow streaked across the night sky, silent and traceless, like a ghost.
"Block it for me." The moment William aimed at the window on the second floor, the shield-bearer had already thrown his shield into the air in an attempt to block the arrow.
However, something strange happened. The shield clearly had a chance to block the arrow, but the dark blue arrow instantly passed through the shield and hit the City Lord's body.
"How is it possible?" The shield-bearer was stunned. In the blink of an eye, the assassin in front of him disappeared.
"Assassin … assassin …"
"City lord …"
Along with the screams behind them, the personal guards turned their heads. They discovered that the assassin had traveled through space and stabbed his sword at the city lord's chest.
"Pfft."
The City Lord, who had been shot, suddenly raised his head and sneered.
A ferocious aura exploded from him, and his flaming battle energy engulfed his entire body. His bloodied right hand grasped the Sword of Thunder as he charged towards William.
Bang.
The two Iron Dolls collided with each other. In addition, the 'servant' who was hiding in the dark attacked at the same time. The battle energy shield on William's body instantly broke. Fortunately, the Soul Shield blocked the attack.
However, the huge impact still sent him flying. At this moment, he grabbed the fake City Lord's shoulder, and the two of them tumbled out of the window and smashed into the ground.
"There's such a thing? You found me a substitute in such a short time. I was wondering how you could be so strong … "
"If I wasn't in a rush, I would have definitely used Insight."
William licked his lips. He shook his head and quickly got up. He hurriedly kicked the fake city lord. Before the fake city lord could get up, he flew backward like a cannonball and smashed into the door, leaving a human shape.
"Swoosh." The shield-bearer behind him waved his sword, and a sword energy that was several meters long landed on William's head.
But the man could only lift one arm.
The magic shield was broken, and fresh blood splattered in the air.
William ignored the injury on his arm and used the momentum to rush into the house. He kicked the fake city lord's face again, causing the fake city lord to be smashed into the wall. Spiderweb-Like cracks extended out. It was hard to imagine how much force William had exerted in his kick.
His head would definitely hurt …
But a battle was not about exchanging blows and using beautiful moves to compete with each other. It was about taking advantage of the enemy's weakness to kill him!
William's fighting style was very decisive and fast. He came in front of the fake city lord, and the Sword of Thunder and the Poisonous Short Sword slashed out at the same time. The space seemed to be torn apart.
The lightning and the green light formed an almost stagnant trajectory …
Hence.
In a flash.
The fake city lord, who was quite strong and could still fight back, had his arms cut off. His head flew into the air, and his eyes opened in confusion.
"So strong." The level 50 shield-bearer shivered. The other personal guards entered the house and saw this scene. They did not dare to believe it.
Because that was the substitute of the city lord, the third strongest person in Rhine City.
"What kind of existence is so strong?"
William did not care about the people behind him.
He suddenly punched the wall on the left!
Bang!
A hole was punched in the wall.
"Er …" A middle-aged man, who was dressed in panic, was grabbed by the neck by the hand that passed through the wall. His eyes were wide open, and his legs were in the air. He could not use any strength.
"Oh no, save the city lord." The personal guards were really anxious this time. They swarmed forward. They did not even have time to think. How did the assassin know that there was someone in the hidden wall?
If the players were here, they would definitely shout, "Scientist!!!"
But it was too late. William exerted strength in his arm, and it instantly became one size bigger. When he suddenly pulled his hand back, the city lord almost died.
Not only was his neck broken, but half of his spine was also pulled out, and he threw it at the feet of the personal guards.
A city lord who was only level 30 …
There was no resistance when they killed him.
"Soul magic is very useful …" William had discovered a problem a long time ago.
When the Saint Soul Magic was upgraded to level 20, when a person's mental fluctuation was too strong, he could detect the location of living creatures within a 10-meter radius. The stronger the mental fluctuation, the more accurate the location.
This was not a skill. It was more like a three-dimensional map formed in the mind, like a bat's ultrasound.
Obviously, even if the players learned Soul magic, they would not be able to master it, unless it was a specific skill.
This should be an instinct that only NPCs would have. In other words, only by truly integrating into this world could one enjoy the abilities that belonged to the natives.
Oh, he finally understood why the Ghost Arrow could pass through the wall. It was because he had x-ray vision.
"The city lord died just like that?" The group of personal guards could not imagine who the person in front of them was.
"Is this a f * cking assassin? A ranger? Or a warrior? "Someone muttered in his heart. He was unreasonably strong.
…
In the end, the personal guards of the city lord's mansion could not stop William.
A level 57 Legendary Boss was a God of Death in version 1.0. His Legendary bloodline increased his attributes by 57%, which could almost make the enemy despair …
William had already charged into the city lord's mansion in an invincible manner. In less than three minutes, he killed the city lord. Then, he killed his way out in a very ostentatious manner. In the end, he killed his way to the city wall and escaped under the cover of the night.
This kind of vile murder caused quite a stir between the two duchies.
The next day.
The investigation team sent by the King arrived. What shocked the players the most was that there were two Legendary Bosses in this team.
The assassination was going to be a big deal. This was what all the players thought.
The two of them were Goethe Nasis and Augustine.
Both of them looked at the chaotic scene in the city lord's mansion and the untouched scene of death. They were silent.
Augustine clenched his fists. His gaze was cold. "He is indeed very strong. He is an expert of our level."
Goethe Nasis carefully touched the human-shaped dent on the wall. He shook his head. "No, he shouldn't be as strong as you."
"This person is not a real killer. The Dark Shadow Organization has never allowed such stupid assassins to appear." Augustine gritted his teeth as he spoke.
"That's right. Why don't you think about who he is? Diablo of the Black Lava Nation? Or Renekton? Or … no, neither of them … "Goethe Nasis quickly rejected his own inference.
Diablo and Renekton were metal element warriors, while the other was the commander of the royal guards. Neither of them would be assigned such a mission. It was even more impossible for other people.
Both of them looked at each other. Coupled with the description of the battle scene, they said at the same time, "Thunder element, City of Dawn."
Goethe Nasis laughed. "He's really mischievous. I didn't kill him back then. Instead, he grew up. Now, he dares to provoke me. Interesting."
"He will probably attack again."
"Maybe he will, maybe he won't." Goethe raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice, "But you don't have to care about this. Continue leading the execution team to assassinate border officers, scouts, and any other experts."
"Leave the problem of the nobles in the nation to me. Anyway, the war will start in two months. "Create a tense atmosphere at the border and let the Black Lava Nation think that we are about to attack."
"Alright, leave William to me. I still remember what happened during the Dragon Slaying Battle." Augustine still remembered the witch vividly. If he did not take revenge, he would feel disgusted for the rest of his life.
Goethe Nasis nodded. He suddenly waved his hand and let the others leave.
Then …
He looked at the golden-haired man in front of him and extended his hand to gently touch Augustine's cheek. "Be careful. His ability is not ordinary."
"Will you leave after tonight?" Augustine showed a rare smile.
"Oh … okay!"
