Chapter 90 Midnight Murder

When the thief girl shut up, Elsa moved her butt on the horse.

Of course she had applied herbs inside her clothes, and Lisa's whip really hurt.

In the past few days, she has become familiar with the scout's mission. Scouts are probably the most dangerous of all the arms, so the scout teams also work in shifts to prevent any one of the scout teams from suffering heavy losses.

But for Elsa, this level of danger is nothing.

When she was hunted by her family before, fatal murder could appear at any time and in any place.

Now, we just need to pay attention to these scouts who are not even at the elite level.

Another day of reconnaissance. Today, we didn't encounter any enemy scouts, but we did encounter our own scouts delivering letters. Elsa was not qualified to check the envelopes, but she could guess the contents.

It's simply that our 2nd Army is about to arrive, so we can prepare and cooperate in the encirclement.

Today, because we took a long detour, it was already midnight when we were ready to go back.

Elsa stuck a torch in the slot next to the horse and ate some dry food in her hand. Due to Rand's favoritism, her dry food was different from that of other ordinary scouts.

Although they all look like dry bread, they contain salt and small pieces of meat.

But as they rode along, Elsa felt something was wrong; it was too quiet.

Although the area nearby is a plain with few trees and it is still winter, it is still not that quiet.

There should be the fluttering of birds, the swarming of snakes, or the sound of mice running by.

As a senior thief, she can sense even the slightest sound.

But at this moment, everything seemed to have quieted down.

No, now she could not hear even the tramp of her horse's hooves on the pavement, nor the snort of the horse, nor the crackle of the burning torch flame.

Silence spell.

Elsa wanted to shout, but her companions around her obviously couldn't hear her.

He jumped up from the horse's back and kicked the thief girl who was also chewing dry food beside him off the horse, allowing her to avoid the arrows flying straight at her. This movement finally alarmed the other members of the scout team.

Then they also quickly discovered that they couldn't make any sound.

Elsa didn't give any orders, nor did she care about anyone. The two hooked daggers at her waist appeared in her hands.

Now, Elsa didn't know how long these ambushers had been waiting here, nor how strong they were, but she was not a pushover anyway.

Among the top professionals, Elsa is considered to be one of the strongest.

And night is the domain of thieves.

Elsa glanced at her surroundings and suddenly disappeared.

In a flash, she appeared behind a cloth-robed man who looked like a wizard, and stabbed him in the back with a dagger accurately.

The shield spell popped up instantly, but it had no effect. Elsa's movements were too fast, and the dagger seemed to have the effect of penetrating spells, and she still killed the mage easily.

Fifteen! All of them were high-level professionals. In an instant, Elsa determined the number of enemies.

Elsa's pupils suddenly shrank. If such a number of senior professionals could cooperate well, even if one of the most senior professionals came out, there would be no chance of winning.

She should escape now. She needs to tell Rand the news as soon as possible, otherwise such a team of superior professionals may pose a threat to Rand in the barracks.

The moment Elsa chose to escape, two people dressed like thieves, wearing tight leather armor and all black, blocked her way.

Behind her, there was an archer holding a bow and pointing it at Elsa's back.

Elsa disappeared again. Her way of moving seemed magical in the eyes of these senior professionals, but not completely unsolvable.

The opponent's mage released a large-scale slowing spell, affecting his own people as well.

Elsa's movements were no longer the same as before, so fast that it was almost like teleportation.

She raised her head and looked at the mage who was casting the spell. At the beginning, she killed one of them, but there was a second mage among these fifteen people.

It’s more troublesome than I thought, and it seems I can’t get away.

When the wizard saw that Elsa's movements had obviously slowed down, he began to remove the slowness from his people one by one.

But even though she was hit by the slowing spell, Elsa's movements were still fast.

She used the dagger in her left hand to block the dagger of the nearest thief who was trying to intercept her, and stabbed the dagger in her right hand into his abdomen. She pushed her entire right hand in with force, and then pulled out the thief's intestines together.

Another thief who tried to attack was turned away by Elsa.

But the arrows from the archers in the distance could not be avoided.

Explosive Arrows.

Among the higher-level professionals, rangers or pure archers are already able to skillfully use special arrows.

For example, this explosive arrow is filled with unstable magical energy.

When the arrow hit Elsa, it exploded, creating high temperature and shock waves.

Blast Elsa away for a distance.

The moment she landed, Elsa got up and forced herself to jump back a distance to avoid the second explosive arrow.

He was chewing several golden leaves in his mouth. Because Elsa was carrying out the most dangerous scouting mission, Rand was quite partial to her and gave most of the golden leaves that could be picked to Elsa.

It comes in handy right now.

The effect of a piece of golden leaf is almost a combination of Yunnan Baiyao and ginseng.

If there were a few more pieces, at least Elsa's exploded wound would stop bleeding.

Fortunately, the smoke and dust from the explosive arrow gave Elsa some breathing space.

The daggers were crossed in front of his chest.

Although Elsa has always called herself a thief, she is actually an assassin.

Her family's teachings made her very clear that a qualified assassin must be as light as a butterfly, as fast as a hummingbird, and as ferocious as a hyena.

When the smoke cleared, there was no sign of Elsa in the dim moonlight.

Elsa appeared behind the other spellcaster, and the curved dagger tore the flesh at his throat, and blood spurted out.

At this time, she was knocked away by the counterattack of the reaction spell and flew away for a distance, but the mage who cast the spell had already lost his life.

The slow spell was lifted, but her injuries were no longer severe enough for her to use the instant step that was almost short-distance teleportation.

The scout teammates were almost all killed, but these people no longer paid attention to her teammates. The attackers found that this frail, white-skinned thief with an unclear face was the most threatening of all.

She was wearing tight purple-black leather armor, and her entire body was wrapped in cloth, but due to the direct impact of the explosive arrow, charred wounds appeared on her body.

But Elsa's expression didn't change at all. Her originally dark eyes glowed with a faint bluish-purple light. Under the dim moonlight, she looked at everyone indifferently.

Like a cold killing machine, it has no emotions and will never hesitate.

There were three archers, and when they noticed that Elsa posed the greatest threat, the three archers shot arrows at Elsa at the same time.

None of them are as good as Ryza who shoots sticks, Elsa commented in her heart, but her current condition is already very bad.

Elsa dodged two arrows, but the third pierced her back with perfect accuracy.

I felt a slight numbness, it seemed that this arrow was a poisonous one.

Avoid the warriors rushing towards you at close range, then reach out.

The omnipotent hand can be controlled by her to a certain extent, but there is no need for that now. What is important to this warrior at this moment must be his armor.

The next moment, in front of the warrior's completely confused gaze, his armor appeared in Elsa's hands.

Elsa swung the dagger and stabbed it into the heart of the heavily armored warrior.

Killing four is a pretty good record, Elsa evaluated herself, but it should stop here.

The massive blood loss, coupled with the toxicity of the poison arrow, made her feel a little dizzy and her vision began to blur.

I just don't know if I can stop these people from doing whatever they want.

Another warrior rushed over and slashed with his two-handed sword. Elsa tried hard to block with her dagger, but the disadvantage of the weapon and the difference in strength made her dagger push back.

The two-handed sword and the dagger left a deep bloody wound on her waist and abdomen, and her wriggling internal organs were vaguely visible.

But it would be great if she could be rescued. She didn’t really want to die, or rather, she really didn’t want to die. This place was not far from the military camp.

If any one of Tanner, Lysa, Olenna or even Rand could discover the problem here, there would be hope of being saved.

It's just that my injuries seem too serious now. I might not survive even if I'm rescued. Although I've heard that Rand has a secret skill of bringing the dead back to life and turning flesh into bones, I still don't know whether it's true or not.
