"Firebolt!"
With a loud shot, sparks burst from the barrel.
But the arrow that was supposed to fly towards Leina flew into the sky.
At the most critical moment, Lin Qing jumped into the air and blocked the short arrows with his long sword.
"You..." said the assassin.
"Want to escape?"
As soon as Lin Qing found out the location of the assassin, he rushed up.
The breath was so terrifying that everyone took a step back.
A powerful energy peeled off the assassin's mask, revealing the assassin's appearance.
The panicked assassin rolled up a see-through cloth.
A wizard, eh.
Not just an ordinary assassin, Lin Qing realized.
Even if the gunshots sounded, but there was no smell of gunpowder or gunpowder, it was certain that it was magic.
In fact, the assassin's main weapon is not the hand cannon, but the staff-like structure behind it.
It may seem unremarkable, but the flaming bolts it emits are powerful enough to deal a fatal blow.
Not just powerful weapons, the assassin also has a magical invisibility cloak that allows him to remain completely hidden.
The magic used by assassins is rudimentary.
However, because of his simplicity and mediocrity, it is difficult to find him in a crowded place.
Perhaps, the assassins launched their attack after deliberation in advance.
"Tch, I failed so much today, next time..."
"There won't be a next time."
The assassin's hand trying to tear off the scroll was severed.
It was Grand Duke Gregory, swinging the sword so fast that the assassin couldn't feel the pain, and Lin Qing couldn't even notice it.
Grand Duke Gregory appeared beside the assassin, holding his sword to his throat.
"You dare to assassinate the Pope...you must die.'
The sudden appearance of Grand Duke Gregory made the assassin look flustered.
But he laughed.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Assassin with arms crossed
Lin Qing noticed that he was trying to focus on the mana circle.
Lin Qing yelled at everyone around him.
"It's suicide magic!"
As soon as the assassin's heart flashed a dangerous light, Lin Qing ran to the assassin's side without hesitation.
Immediately afterwards, a violent roar shook the heavens and earth.
The flash of light rising into the sky is clearly visible.
Some were amazed, others were smiling.
Let the wheel of fortune turn silently in an unknown direction.
"In the end what happened?"
Not all counter-revolutionary soldiers attended the pope's welcoming ceremony.
Because there are too many people here, the square can hardly hold it.
So some people, they can only go back to their barracks, chat and continue to drink.
However, as the commanders of the various units attended emergency meetings, the knights began to wander, and the soldiers began to sense that something big was going on.
Immediately afterwards, the truth was told from the mouths of the returning soldiers.
"What did you say? Someone dared to assassinate the Pope?"
"Shh! Keep your voice down! It's the upper class who's whispering the news to me.
The soldiers were shocked when they learned the truth.
The same is true for the red wolf mercenaries waiting in the barracks.
"No no no, why would anyone want it?"
Hearing Zhang Xun's question, Zhang Peng, who attended the welcoming ceremony with Lin Qing, frowned.
"What do you mean, someone must want to rebel."
"Is this really the case? I heard that the pope's visit was secretly and planned suddenly. How would the enemy know?"
"Well, there may be spies in the palace."
Hearing Zhang Peng's words, Zhang Xun just shook his head in disbelief.
He knew the Rebels would be in trouble since losing Eisenberg.
But what do they need to act on this urge?
In the Holy Empire, the pope is the absolute existence.
Still, most people do not recognize or accept the new pope.
The reason is that the Pope was not elected by the people.
"So, these people decided to assassinate the pope?"
This is not good for the rebels.
If they choose the wrong path to overthrow the Unclean, the light that shined for their cause may fade.
"What the hell are the rebels thinking... Ah, did they check thoroughly?"
Zhang Xun stuck out his tongue and asked, Zhang Peng's face changed dramatically.
He knew what Zhang Xun was talking about.
"Yes, I see it."
"Is it really Princess Lena?" Zhang Xun asked.
"Wrong."
Zhang Peng nodded, looking confident.
There was a faint smile on his determined expression.
Although he didn't get close to Leina like Lin Qing did, he could clearly see that it was her.
He has served Reina for a long time, and he even knows all her hot little habits.
"The princess met the master..."
"Is that so! By the way, where is the Lord? Has he seen the Princess?"
"
Zhang Peng just sighed deeply.
"What's going on outside?"
"say something!"
All the knights except Zhang Xun started to ask Victor.
Zhang Peng opened his mouth and said with a heavy expression: "Accompanied by the explosion, our Lord disappeared. And not only him, Princess Leina also disappeared..."
After hearing Zhang Peng's words, the faces of all the knights became serious.
"No one saw him..."
Even Zhang Xun, who has always maintained a calm personality, is as motionless as a stone.
Can't see anything.
This is the kind of darkness Lin Qing saw for the first time after he died at the hands of Luo Jianhuang and fell into the abyss of purgatory.
"No way... Am I dead again?"
The assassin used a suicide spell to turn the mana circle into a giant mana bomb.
Suicide magic is a spell that a wizard can only use once in a lifetime.
Because when the assassin exploded, not only the magic power was taken away, but also their remaining lives and bodies disappeared with the spell.
So even if the magicians stop the magic circle, the situation will not change after it is activated.
The assassin's magical ability appears to be seven circles, which means he is a trained war mage.
A battle mage who is good at attacking magic, but a suicide demon is very powerful.
Lin Qing was ready to die.
With no time to react, he tried to counteract the power of the self-destruct magic with shield magic one after another.
But the destructive power of the spell just tore apart every magic shield under Lin Qing's cloth.
"Isn't that stupid... wait a minute?"
Lin Qing felt the warmth, and he struggled to wake up.
He saw a woman in a white dress.
"Lena?"
Lena nodded.
She didn't dare to express her feelings easily, but her eyes were already filled with tears, and she quickly buried her face in his arms.
She couldn't stand the emotions she had been suppressing all the time.
"Lin Qing...Master Lin Qing, is this really you? Tell me, I'm not dreaming!"
"Why? Still don't believe me?" Lin Qing asked.
Lin Qing grabbed Leina and hugged her for a while.
His long-awaited reunion finally came true.
Reunited with their dreams, they are immersed in the warmth of each other, erasing all the pain they have experienced.
