At the moment of life and death.
Horns didn’t slow down at all. His body quickly turned into nothingness. Years of training had made his combat instincts reach their peak. The moment he realized that he had been ambushed.
He opened the door to the shadow realm!
Forced Shadow Escape!
When the gentle shadow world accepted him like a mother’s embrace, Horns’ immense pain finally dissipated. After using the power of the shadow to resist the pain, he quickly planned his retreat route.
Firstly.
A forced Shadow Pulse was required.
Although this action might cause greater damage to his already torn body, this was the only way to escape.
He had to use this pulse to reach the next point where the shadow realm connected to the prime material plane.
Then, he would rely on his strong willpower and tenacity to quickly leave the battlefield and save his life.
In his many years of assassination.
Similar scenes did not happen often, but they were not unique.
Horns still remembered that when he was young, he had been chased to the ends of the earth several times.
At that time, he also felt that he was on the verge of death.
But in the end, he did not die.
Every single time.
He relied on his strong will to survive and skilful escape techniques to escape.
And this time.
He believed that it would be the same.
In a flash, this thought flashed through his mind. His strong will to live drove him to bend his body, and his brain was spinning crazily. The power from the shadow realm came from all directions.
It formed a vortex in his heart.
Power accumulation completed.
He was about to successfully cast Shadow Pulse.
But at this moment.
In the pitch-black world, a pale and rough eyeshadow barged in.
At that moment.
Horns’ eyes widened.
He could not believe that the enemy could accurately find the shadow node he was hiding in!
In a flash.
A rough hand grabbed his neck.
“Come out!”
When Horns heard the voice, he was dragged out of the shadow world.
At the same time.
A huge bone blade slashed at his chin, cutting off two-thirds of his head and half of his shoulder.
“This cow, on what basis…
This was Horns’ last thought in this world.
Pa!
The corpse of the Drow Assassin fell to the ground, knocking over a shelf in the kitchen.
The clattering of plates falling to the ground was incessant.
Ten seconds later.
A fair-skinned but skinny soldier rushed in first. He was wearing obviously ill-fitting armour and a comically large hat. Under the brim of the hat was a pair of lively eyes.
“What happened? Big Sister Peggy?”
The young man asked nervously.
Peggy held the half-dead body in her hand and replied,
“I’m fine. I caught a sneaky guy. The young man said in shock, “Wow, is this an assassin?
“Why did he turn his skin black?”
Peggy stared at the corpse in her hand and muttered,
“Is there a possibility that this is a drow?”
The surprise in the young man’s eyes deepened.
“Is this Drow? So there really are people who are born black!”
He looked at Peggy with admiration.
“Sister Peggy, you know so much!”
Peggy chuckled.
She quite liked this clever young man called Domi.
Domi was the youngest member of Rolling Stone Town to participate in this battle.
He was originally a reserve member.
Because they heard that there was money to be paid for participating in the battle, they racked their brains to join the battle.
The military officer had rejected Domi’s request to join the battle many times.
However, Domi recommended himself through various channels.
In the end, he still managed to get a chance to join the logistics team as a reserve.
The nominal commander of the logistics team was an old man in the garrison.
However, since the first day of the battle, Domi had been following behind Peggy, who was an unusual logistics member.
This made it hard for Peggy not to like him.
“Sister Peggy, there is a war going on over there. Do you think there will be more assassins sneaking in?” asked Domi.
Peggy nodded.
“Go and inform Allen (the logistics manager). Tell him to inform Zeller and the commander of the cavalry.
“I will personally check the camp.” Domi asked enthusiastically,
“I’ll inform them!
“But is there anything I can help you with when it comes to searching for other assassins?”
Peggy thought for a moment.
“Yes.
“Go and change the position of the two gemstones at the entrance of the camp.” Realization dawned on Domi.
“Is it because the position of the True Sight Gem was not right, so the assassin was allowed to sneak in?
“Do you want me to adjust my position so that you can force a potential assassin to reveal himself?”
However, Peggy shook her head.
‘ Anti-stealth is my innate ability. I don’t need to rely on other powers.
“Those two gems are too dazzling. They’re shaking my soul fire. Move him. It’s best if you move them to a corner so that they don’t hinder me.”
Domi was dumbfounded.
After a long time.
He scratched his head and did as he was told.
At the same time.
On the southwest slope.
The infantrymen of Rolling Stone Town engaged in close combat with the high-leaf army that was attacking at night.
Blake, who was born with divine strength, led the team in front.
After the undead army retreated to the north, he was in charge of the defence line at the foot of the mountain..
