Judging from the situation, the leader assassin already knew his fate.
He who kills will be killed in return; there's nothing more to say.
Even so, the leader assassin, having finally reached the master level, was no ordinary person with a weak mind. Even when faced with a situation where there was no chance of survival, he still tried to seek the last glimmer of hope.
While the leader assassin was searching for a way to break out, Prince Wu Lai was faster, because according to intelligence, Prince Wu Lai knew the other organization's rules all too well.
If the assassin in front of us chooses to commit suicide, there is a risk of unforeseen consequences.
Act faster than the assassin who abandons the escape route and chooses suicide.
When Prince Woolley gets tough on himself, he doesn't even blink.
He took out a dagger from his storage ring and stabbed his own thigh hard with the small blade... Instantly, blood gushed out from the Crown Prince's thigh.
Uh…uh…＼(◎o◎)／?
The leader assassin was stunned!
What... is going on?
The man in front of him was stabbing himself right in front of him. In all his years as an assassin, he had never seen anything like it.
However, as Prince Wu Lai cried out in alarm, the leader of the assassins began to have a vague idea.
Damn it, I've been framed. (╬￣皿￣)
All that could be heard was Prince Wu Lai retreating in terror, shouting, "How dare you! You dare to assassinate the Carlo royal family... Quick, quick, protect this prince!"
The three guards beside Prince Woolley immediately responded: "Protect His Highness."
"Your Highness, I am late..."
"How dare you harm His Highness the Prince! You villain, do not flee!"
In an instant, the guards who had been shouting "Don't run away, you villain!" stepped forward and began fighting with the leader of the assassins.
Although I have a legendary magic bow in hand, it's like a high-level spell for a mage right now, requiring some time to activate!
It seems the other side won't give the leader assassin that much time.
The most dangerous one was the person behind Prince Wu Lai, who was also one of the three. This person was staring intently at him... and it was impossible to sense his elemental strength.
The opponent must be a master of spatial magic. Only with a sufficient understanding of the rules governing the surface of space can one isolate their senses from those of the same level. Similarly, a grandmaster of spatial magic has very strong perception; no wonder their location was exposed…
Prince Wu Lai suddenly gave a subtle smile.
The remaining assassins, who had been driven away, arrived nearby.
"You...you have some nerve! I am a direct descendant of the royal family of the Carlo Empire! You damned dog, how dare you try to assassinate me!"
The assassin observing from the shadows was secretly alarmed!
Isn't the target Lord Sandy, the young pope?
It turns out their target was Prince Woolley.
Chief, what do you mean?
The assassins lurking in the shadows dared not linger, for they were being driven! The opponent's strength far exceeded their expectations. If the intelligence hadn't been wrong, the assassins would have had to suspect that their leader had tricked them.
Regardless of the leader, run.
There was a commotion in the distance.
The guards on the other side immediately understood and shouted in unison, "Protect His Highness the Crown Prince!"
"Protect the eldest prince..."
Suddenly, the number of people driving away some of the assassins decreased again.
Among these assassins, there were also some wise individuals, including the assassin Xiao Liu.
He secretly felt sorry for the leader, but kept moving; survival was the priority...
The leader assassin naturally sensed the commotion in the distance.
Originally, if my subordinates came to meet me, there was a chance they could break through the spatial confinement area, at which point I could simply use a random teleportation magic scroll.
One by one, the little brats abandoned him as their leader, just as he had planned to discard all his pawns beforehand.
As time passed, unexpected events might occur in the previous battles. Seeing that the time was right, Prince Wu Lai gave a signal with his eyes, and another guard stepped forward to join the battle.
Prince Woolley was backed up by his men.
Before long, the leader assassin also gave up.
Just as the Carlo Empire was about to capture him, the leader assassin had no choice but to bite down on the medicine bag that he had placed in his mouth beforehand.
This potion can cause the elemental energy in the body to become uncontrollable, with the elements running rampant and the energy going out of control, turning you into a human bomb!
Historical records state that a certain country once used this method to order its people to attack a city.
The spatial magician shouted, "Get out of the way!"
boom……
A blinding white light accompanied by a massive elemental shockwave.
Around the same time, another energy explosion occurred.
That direction, the female assassin mage, who possesses mental magic, is quite dangerous and is not among those who would go easy on her.
"It's over," Prince Wu Lai sighed softly, stepping past the protection of the Grand Magician of Space.
"The rest depends on the outcome of the Carlo Empire's efforts."
As he secretly thought this, Prince Wu Lai allowed his subordinates to treat him.
The major imperial powers on the continent have long planned to launch a siege against the Dark Region, but they lack only one reason and an imperial-level leader to spearhead the operation.
While preparing for the expedition to the continent of Vita, the Carlo Magic Empire will inevitably launch a swift and decisive attack on the restless forces in the Underdark.
The primary task in war is to ensure stability in the rear.
Because of the assassination attempt on Lord Sandy, who had been designated as an important ally by the Empire, the internal pacification plan was initiated ahead of schedule.
This wasn't the whole plan. Prince Wu Lai also wanted the assassin leader to take something back and scam someone... Alas, what a pity!
The killers in this organization are still so professional.
A short while later, Ron met up with Prince Woolley at the city gate.
Ron glanced at the injuries on Prince Woolley's body and thought to himself that the prince was indeed a ruthless person.
"Your Highness, are you alright?"
"What could have happened? Has anything unexpected happened to the Viscount of the Kingdom?"
"There was an unexpected incident, but it was just a false alarm."
This reminded Ron of the little tower flying beside him, which was doing nothing. Although the little tower was still young and inexperienced, doing nothing was still doing nothing.
How could Ron be confused during the battle, and Little Tower be confused too? That's so frustrating.
"Little Tower, get down here! I haven't taught Ron enough of a lesson yet."
"Your partner just fell for this, why didn't you use the mind contract to wake me up!"
"..."
Prince Woolley watched Ron play around with his contracted partner with a rather uninteresting attitude, but he joined in the fun anyway.
At this moment, the people inside the carriage also emerged; Vivian was with Rita…
Upon seeing Rita, Ron simply said, "Rita, give little Rita a verbal scolding."
"..."
Ron didn't dare let Rita actually teach Little Ta a lesson, otherwise it would be bad if Little Ta got hurt.
Whether it's verbal or not, talk to the little one more often, and next time, he'll definitely remember it.
At the city gate.
Both groups of people eventually returned to their respective teams.
Based on the initial plan, Prince Woolley will no longer escort Ron. Woolley is returning to the Carlo Emperor Palace, and the Queen will definitely want to know the details.
There are actually a few more details about Ron's preparations for his first assassination attempt.
Prince Woolley found Aunt Sera, who possessed the talent of time travel.
Although Sera's legend did not ascend to legend through time magic, time is inherently related to divination, making interference with divination magic extremely simple.
Prophecy is just one of countless possibilities in the future. The more accurate the future possibility is, the better, depending on the practitioner's understanding of the relevant laws of prophecy.
Foreseeing the future inevitably comes at a price; this is the world's balance of laws. Therefore, the orcish empire's professional prophetic sages are mostly young yet old.
In addition, this way, Prince Wu Lai has limited the assassins to those of legendary rank or higher.
And now the assassination attempt on the Imperial Prince has occurred. The legends of the Underdark are out in force again. Could their target be an important figure in their own empire? The small ones fail, so they try the big ones. You've rebelled, you swarming insects in the shadows!
The Carlo Empire is currently striving for alliances with various parties, so certain legends in the Underdark should not act rashly. These forces will probably be busy sending gifts to all sides!
To have survived to this day, acting lawlessly, must have its own unspoken rules of conduct.
Ron stopped thinking about the key points here; that was something for Prince Wolai's side to consider.
Hehe, let's avoid things that strain our brains and damage our brain cells. Let's go see Sister Yuna in peace.
