Compared with the other three secret continents, the power of the Underworld Society seemed to be much smaller.
The Hidden Island controlled most of the gold coins of the Human Kingdom, and was equivalent to the World Bank.
The Elf Continent controlled most of the Warlocks of the Human Kingdom, and had countless evil spells, poisons, and people with special abilities.
The Bazhou controlled most of the world's secret gold mines, an astronomical figure of various metal mines, and monopolized more than half of the world's arms trade.
The Underworld Society only produced assassins.
Moreover, according to legend, the assassins of the Underworld Society never failed, and there was no one in the world that they did not dare to kill.
Of course, people at the level of Søren knew that this was a joke.
Although the Underworld Society was strange and powerful, it also had a master behind it, and that was the Dragon Temple.
The Dragon Temple was always bright and upright, and no dirty work could be done. Therefore, four black vests were needed to rule the world and deter the world.
The four secret continents were equivalent to four private subsidiaries of the Dragon Temple. As for the Netherworld Society, they were responsible for doing the dirty work.
Under normal circumstances, the Underworld Society would not fail an assassination.
However, everything has its own special characteristics.
Zhi Li once paid the Underworld Society to assassinate Søren, using more than a dozen Dragon Warriors. They were about to succeed, but they encountered the Dragon Archer of the Fengdu Temple's Heavenly Star Temple. He knew Søren's identity as a reincarnator, and was determined not to kill Søren on the spot. Instead, he asked Zhi Li to kill him.
As a result, while escorting Søren to Fengdu, they encountered Ashita Liren. By a freak combination of factors, the dozen Underworld Society experts were all killed.
Moreover, the Underworld Society did not retaliate against Ashita Liren afterwards.
So, was the assassination of the Rock Demon special?
It should not be. At least in the current situation of the world, the Rock Demon was not as important as Søren.
… …
In a small castle, Søren met the contact of the Underworld Society.
He was an ordinary person, an ordinary person who would disappear in an instant if thrown into a crowd. He had an ordinary face and an ordinary figure.
The only thing special about him was his dull eyes, which were as calm as an ancient well.
He sat quietly behind the table, the cup of tea in front of him untouched.
Søren sat down in front of him.
The contact person from the Underworld Society showed his identity document and the badge of the Underworld Society so that Søren could verify his identity.
After Søren proved that he was the contact person of the Underworld Society, the two parties started to talk in detail.
"Who should we kill?" the contact of the Underworld Society asked.
"The king of the Rock Race, the Rock Demon," Søren said.
As soon as he said this, the contact person from the Dark Society frowned.
"What is it?" Søren asked.
The contact from the Netherworld Society said, "This person is out of the question."
Søren was puzzled. "Why not? Could it be that he's some kind of great figure that we can't kill? "
The contact from the Netherworld Society said, "That's not it. Someone bought his no-kill order with money."
Søren was stunned. There was actually a no-kill order?
The contact from the Netherworld Society said, "The Netherworld Society will no longer carry out any assassinations against anyone who buys the no-kill order."
Søren said, "Then, how much did the Rock Demon pay for the no-kill order?"
"Thirty-five thousand gold coins," the contact from the Netherworld Society said.
Søren said, "Then I will pay double the price for you to kill him."
The contact shook his head. "No, the no-kill order is for life."
Søren said, "Then who bought the no-kill order for the Rock Demon? Did he do it himself? "
"No," the contact from the Netherworld Society said, "We need to keep the details a secret."
Who could it be? Zhi Li?
The contact from the Netherworld Society said, "Your Excellency Søren, don't you want to buy a no-kill order for yourself? We've already received many requests to kill you, but the price is too high every time, and they all flinch. "
Søren was surprised. "What's the price of my no-kill order? What's the price to kill me? "
The contact from the Netherworld Society said, "The price three days ago was 970,000 gold coins, and the no-kill order is 1,390,000 gold coins."
Søren was shocked. How could his price be so high?
Søren asked, "What's the price for Zhi Li?"
"He is protected by the no-kill order, so we can't assassinate him," the contact from the Netherworld Society said.
Søren said, "How much did he pay for the no-kill order?"
The contact from the Netherworld Society said, "He doesn't want money."
Then, the contact from the Netherworld Society said, "Your Excellency Søren, don't you want to buy a no-kill order for yourself?"
"It's too expensive. I can't afford it," Søren said.
The contact from the Netherworld Society said with a smile, "Your price is among the top few in the whole human kingdom. But it is also because of this that we have a certain degree of protection for you. There are not many people who can afford such a high price, and the success rate is not very high. We have deduced many times, and if we want to kill you successfully, we will have to pay the price of at least dozens of Dragon Warriors. "
Søren suddenly felt it was ridiculous that the contact was talking about how to assassinate him.
"So you won't take the order to assassinate the Rock Demon, no matter what?" Søren asked.
"Yes, Your Excellency Søren." The contact from the Netherworld Society said, "But I can send you a message. There are very strong masters around the Rock Demon, and the success rate of assassination is not very high."
"Who?" Søren asked.
"This message can be sent to you. It's from the Elf Continent," the contact from the Netherworld Society said.
Elf Continent? Why would such a strong force help the Rock Demon? Did they want to get their hands on the magic mirror or the gunpowder?
But it was obvious that the relationship between the Netherworld Society and the Elf Continent was not good. Otherwise, they wouldn't have secretly sabotaged him.
"If there is nothing else, I will take my leave," the contact from the Netherworld Society said. "Are you sure you don't want to buy a no-kill order?"
"It's too expensive," Søren said.
"Well, you can contact us anytime next time you want to buy it," the contact from the Netherworld Society said. The contact person from the Underworld Society said, "We can pay in installments, which can be extended for up to three years. The interest is only ten percent."
"Thank you," Søren said.
"Goodbye." The contact from the Netherworld Society left.
Although he couldn't assassinate the Rock Demon, Søren let out a long sigh of relief.
The Rock Demon was arrogant and shameless. He had humiliated him several times, so Søren wanted to kill him. But in the depths of his heart, he hoped to defeat him fair and square on the battlefield and eliminate him.
After all, the Rock Demon was his half-brother, the son of Yan Chao 'er's aunt.
He didn't feel any pressure when he assassinated Grand Duke Lanshi of the Yelan Principality, but he felt uncomfortable when he used assassination methods to deal with the Rock Demon.
But he didn't have the confidence to defeat the Rock Demon on the battlefield. To protect his family and children, Søren had to resort to all means.
But at this time, this extreme method wouldn't work.
So, in the end, they had to fight on the battlefield to decide life and death!
"Let's go to the Southern Sea and launch the cannon warships for the first time." Søren said, "In twenty days, our success or failure will depend on whether these three warships are strong enough and whether our cannons are sharp."
When Zhuang Zhixuan went to prepare the griffins, Princess Jung Yeon suddenly said to Søren, "Husband, have you touched Zhuang Zhixuan since you came back from the Western Sea?"
Søren shook his head and said, "No, why would I touch her?"
Princess Jung Yeon said, "Her martial arts are very high. Sometimes, when I'm not by your side, you will need to rely on her to protect you. If you want her to be absolutely reliable, you have to make her one of us. "
Jung Yeon didn't have this intention at first. She had always been cold to Zhuang Zhixuan.
But after talking with the people from the Netherworld Society, she found out that many people tried to hire the Netherworld Society to assassinate Søren. It was just that the price was too high, so these people gave up.
But it was obvious that with Søren's rise, there would only be more and more people coming to assassinate him.
Although Zhuang Zhixuan's martial arts were not as good as Jung Yeon's, she came from the Elf Continent. Her evil martial arts were hard to guard against. Moreover, her martial arts were tyrannical and sharp. Coupled with Søren's powerful spiritual power, unless he encountered a crazy ambush like the Princess of Elf Continent Wan Wan, Søren's safety could be guaranteed.
Jung Yeon said, "Zhuang Zhixuan is still lost and doesn't know where to go. If you go and sleep with her, her heart will be completely settled. She will regard Tianshui City as her home, so she will naturally risk her life to protect it."
…
Søren, Jung Yeon, and Zhuang Zhixuan rode Gryphons towards the southern sea.
As Søren's personal guard, Zhuang Zhixuan and Søren rode on a Gryphon.
She had been following Søren for several months, but most of the time, Søren couldn't feel her existence because she almost never spoke.
Of course, there were times when Søren couldn't ignore her existence, and that was when she walked in front of Søren.
Because Zhuang Zhixuan's figure was too hot, especially her two super long legs, and her astonishingly round buttocks. Her back view was really soul-stirring.
"Did you grow your hair long?" Søren asked.
Zhuang Zhixuan was stunned. Usually, when there was nothing, Søren would never say a word to her.
"En!" Zhuang Zhixuan said.
At this time, her hair was short, and she was wearing crocodile skin tight clothes. She was completely a sexy and fiery girl, and no longer looked like a man.
Her face was really delicate and beautiful, but because it was always tense, cold and serious, it made her face look like it was chopped by a knife and an axe, so sharp that it made people flinch.
"These few months, you have been following me, do you have any ideas?" Søren asked.
Zhuang Zhixuan shook her head and said, "No ideas."
Søren said, "Do you have a family?"
Zhuang Zhixuan hesitated for a moment, then shook her head and said, "No."
Obviously, she had a family, but for some reason, she said no.
Søren said, "When we are free, I will let Qinqin learn swordsmanship from you, okay?"
Zhuang Zhixuan was stunned, very surprised, then nodded and said, "Okay."
…
At this time, in the southern sea a few hundred miles away from Tianshui City, three large artillery battleships were ready on the sea.
Dozens of ships, big and small, were ready to be scrapped, and were floating on the sea as target ships!
Søren and the other two rode Griffins and landed on the flagship in the middle.
Yan Chao 'er said with a smile, "The first cannon at the bow has been aimed, just waiting for you to fire it."
Søren jumped down from the Griffin and said, "Aunt, the Rock Demon is protected by the Dark Society's no kill order, so we can't assassinate him."
Yan Chao 'er's beautiful face suddenly showed a complicated expression, then she nodded and said, "Oh."
They came to the bow of the flagship, where there was a cannon, the largest one in the whole battleship, with a diameter of about 150 millimeters, a length of more than three meters, and a weight of about three tons.
"This cannon can fire solid bullets, the farthest distance is 2,500 meters, and the effective range is between 1,000 to 1,500 meters." An alchemist said with a voice full of enthusiasm, as if this was not a cannon, but his child.
The biggest problem of ancient cannons in China was that the barrel was rough, and there were air holes inside, which could easily explode.
But in this world, this problem was solved almost a thousand years ago. Moreover, because of the existence of secret gold in this world, the metal smelting technology in this world was far superior to that of ancient China.
At this time, the first cannon had been loaded and aimed, and the target was a large ship more than 200 meters away.
It was a good sign that the first shot hit the target. Therefore, they chose a very large abandoned ship, which was also filled with kerosene, and placed it more than 200 meters away.
Dozens of the best cannoneers had aimed again and again.
"Light the first shot." Yan Chao 'er handed the torch to Søren.
Søren pulled his aunt and Jung Yeon, "Come, the three of us will fire the first shot together."
Jung Yeon's beautiful eyes were also ready to move, but she did not refuse.
Søren stood in the middle, while Yan Chao 'er and Jung Yeon stood on his left and right. The three of them held torches, and together, they lit the fuse on the first cannon.
"Sizzle …" The fuse burned quickly.
A few seconds later …
"Boom …"
A loud sound!
Sparks erupted as an iron ball weighing nearly 15 kilograms suddenly flew out. Like a black lightning bolt, it streaked across the sky in an arc.
"Bang …"
Facing such a large target ship more than 200 meters away, although it did not directly hit the center of the ship, but only hit the bow.
But it still hit the target.
The hot iron ball hit the wooden board of the bow, easily tearing, piercing, and igniting the fish oil inside.
"Boom, boom, boom …"
Suddenly, an earth-shattering explosion occurred.
The entire target ship was blown into pieces, and the fireball soared into the sky.
"Long live, long live, long live …"
Søren's first shot hit the target, and the momentum was astonishing. It gave the sailors and cannoneers on the three ships great confidence and morale.
Then, Søren ordered, "Drill begins, 100 cannons fire!"
…
At the same time!
Zhi Li's wedding was getting closer and closer. Tu Liyang and Turin Duo entered King City and were warmly welcomed by Prince Zhi Li.
Not only that, Turin Duo had completely abandoned her wheelchair, and gracefully stood beside Tu Liyang. Although she walked very slowly, her posture was sexy and charming.
Zhi Li occasionally glanced at her waist and buttocks, and his eyes were extremely fiery!
However, Tu Liyang was still oblivious. He was completely immersed in the joy of his wife's recovery. Moreover, his tall and charming wife, Turin Duo, was always holding his arm, and they were intimate. It made him feel like he was the happiest man in the world.
Therefore, he did not notice how many times his wife, Tu Lingduo, and Feng Li exchanged ambiguous glances.
