Before the ship was destroyed.
Fander Sar was thinking about how to usurp the country.
After countless years of planning, this day had finally come.
The Emperor of the Empire had passed away, the eldest son had been poisoned to death by me, the rest was actually quite simple.
As long as I can make Empress bow down to me, then …
At this point, a voice suddenly resounded from outside the ship: "Fander Sar! You old scoundrel, come out and fight me if you're not afraid! "
Fander Sar scowled.
A Professionist reported: "Sir, there's a madman outside"
"Only one person?"
"Yes"
"Ram him to death"
"Yes sir"
After this order was given, the ship headed straight for the man.
As soon as the ship changed course, Fander Sar found that he couldn't move.
He immediately realized that something was wrong.
"Quickly activate the large-scale anti-magic formation!" Fander Sar ordered.
"Yes sir"
The two Dark Guards responded and immediately activated a large-scale Anti-Magic Array around the entire spaceship.
This was something that they had paid a heavy price to buy from a certain void monster.
According to that monster, it had accidentally discovered this formation in the remains of an ancient magic empire.
Anti-magic was an extremely rare power in the first place, and in the world of magic, it could be considered as the highest-level magic formation.
An intense black light spread out in all directions.
The formation slowly expanded.
Fander Sar sighed in relief.
Boom!!!
An intense tremor resounded.
The ship was sliced into countless fragments that flew into the space vortex.
All the spellcasters reacted immediately.
They had already escaped from the anti-magic formation and were casting their spells to fight against the person who blocked their way.
The powerful melee combatants had all gathered around Fander Sar, cautiously protecting him.
Everything was in order.
Fander Sar calmed down a bit and ordered with a grim expression: "I suspect that he's an assassin sent by the royal family. Capture him for me, I want to slowly torture and interrogate him"
"Yes sir" someone immediately went to relay the order.
The guard captain next to him silently came up and whispered: "Sir, don't worry, I'll be by your side to protect you"
Fander Sar nodded.
The guard captain was a powerful melee combatant, proficient with swords, spears, rods, and clubs.
Past events had proven that it was always reassuring to have him around.
Edwin van der Sar patted the guard captain on the shoulder and said, "After we take down the assassin, I'll leave the interrogation to you. Give him an unforgettable lesson, but don't let him die. I want to throw him in front of Empress and see her reaction."
The guard captain smirked: "Don't worry, sir, I will definitely let this assassin know what — —"
Before he finished speaking, the guard captain suddenly disappeared.
In its place was an assassin clad in black armor and wielding a longsword.
A faint voice came from the armor.
"It might be a little painful. I hope you can endure it."
Edwin van der Sar's expression changed abruptly, but before he could do anything, he felt a bone-piercing cold light coming at him.
The world was spinning.
A commotion broke out in the surroundings.
Then, he saw his own headless body.
The world was pitch black.
Gu Qing Shan sheathed her sword and calmly looked around.
This was the anti-magic formation, so she couldn't perform any spells.
[Shadow Shift] could only be performed because it was activated from the outside of the formation, combined with the fact that it could pass through all obstructions, not even the formation could stop it, so it could be successfully performed.
— — then what about the new World Technique?
Gu Qing Shan focused her mind and activated the Mystery Iris Technique in her left eye: [Fog Realm Descent]
A thick layer of fog suddenly manifested around her.
The anti-magic formation couldn't stop a World Technique!
That's right, this is a Cultivation-type Mystery Iris Technique that combines the Inner Plane, Primal Chaos, and Origin power of infinite worlds, how could an anti-magic formation possibly stop it?
Gu Qing Shan's expression changed and casually swung her sword.
Kih!
The Six Paths Great Mountain sword parried a giant spear.
The one wielding the spear was the guard captain.
"You killed the Prime Minister of the Empire! The entire Empire will become your enemy, you will die without a place to be buried! "he angrily shouted.
Gu Qing Shan gripped her sword tightly and pushed.
The guard captain was sent flying.
But more people were attacking Gu Qing Shan.
"Kill him! Avenge the Prime Minister! "
"Kill!"
"Despicable Assassin!"
Shouts and screams resounded throughout the battlefield.
Casually parrying the barrage of attacks from the melee Professionists, Gu Qing Shan took a step back, looked at the people rushing towards him, and slowly said:
"Don't be rash, this matter is over"
He walked into the fog.
The fog quickly swirled, then completely disappeared in just a single breath's worth of time.
— — -there was nothing left.
The Professionists all froze.
The guard captain rushed to one side, grabbed a guard, and sternly shouted: "The anti-magic formation wasn't activated?"
The guard said with a sobbing tone, "It's open, boss, look!"
Two guards showed the magical artifact in their hands to the guard captain.
The magical artifact was still giving off waves of energy.
"It was indeed activated, but none of us casters were able to activate our spells" a Professionist commented from the side.
Everyone fell silent.
If even the anti-magic formation wasn't activated, then wouldn't this Assassin be able to come and go as he pleased?
Everything happened too quickly just now.
The Assassin abruptly appeared next to the Prime Minister and swung his sword.
The guard captain's full-powered attack was easily deflected by his sword.
He didn't even bother to look at the other people's attacks, only casually blocking them a few times.
Following that, the Assassin disappeared into the fog.
— — -who would be able to endure such a powerful assassination?
The more they thought about it, the more terrified they became.
Someone suddenly shouted: "No! I don't believe it! How could he come and go as he pleased! There must be some sort of smokescreen! "
Everyone turned to look, only to see that it was the leader of the spell casters.
The guard captain clenched his fist and shouted: "That's right, we must avenge the Prime Minister!"
"Well said, captain!"
"That's right, we must avenge the Prime Minister!"
Everyone agreed.
All of a sudden.
The fog once again manifested from thin air.
The terrifying Assassin clad in black armor walked out from the fog.
"Kill!" the guard captain shouted.
Everyone attacked.
Intense wind kicked up.
Boom — — -
Everyone was blown away, then stood in mid-air, not daring to move.
Sword-infused wind.
The unparalleled sword-infused wind drifted around everyone, making them unable to move.
Heaven sword, Heaven's Choice — — -
9-layered Taiyi Sword Array!
With Gu Qing Shan's current strength, the power of her sword array was nothing short of terrifying.
Not to mention, the Heaven sword had stacked his sword array 9 times!
"My apologies, they said that I forgot to take the head, so that's going to deduct the quest completion rate"
The Assassin said apologetically.
He grabbed Edwin van der Sar's head with one hand, then waved at everyone with the other:
"Goodbye, I wish you all good health and happiness"
The Assassin once again entered the fog, then completely disappeared.
As soon as he left, the sword-infused wind dissipated.
The Professionists regained their freedom.
Everyone exchanged glances.
Someone spoke up: "There's no need to think about it, an Assassin of this level definitely isn't a Death Knight from any clan, he must be an Assassin from the Hitman Guild"
Everyone turned to the one who spoke, only to see that it was the leader of the spell casters.
As if confirming something, his expression turned ashen as he dejectedly said: "That Assassin just now had already surpassed the normal ranks, he's at least a 'Sealed' existence, not someone we can deal with"
With that, he flew into the distance.
"Wait! Where are you going? "the guard captain asked.
The leader of the spell casters didn't even turn around and replied: "The infinite void is vast and full of mysteries, the power of a Combatant is both terrifying and frightening — — I should have pursued the truth of magic long ago, seeking the secrets of life and death, instead of being blinded by power and wealth, doing nothing every day"
"If I don't become stronger, I'll be ignored for the rest of my life, not even daring to say a single word"
His figure slowly disappeared into the space vortex.
No one knew which world he had gone to.
But one thing was certain, he had left the Empire of Ruins, never to return.
"Guard captain, what do we do now?"
Someone asked in a low voice.
The guard captain was speechless.
He clenched his fists tightly, then loosened them, clenched them again, then loosened them again, his entire body trembling.
"Damn it!"
"That Assassin didn't treat me as an opponent worth fighting at all, he even wished for my happiness …"
The guard captain grumbled in dejection, then took off the Grand Chancellor's guard armor he was wearing.
Turning around, he flew towards the infinite space vortex.
— — -he also left.
