Chapter 37 The Day You and the Stars Disappeared (3)

Stargazing "There seems to be a sound over there?"

Captain: "Over there..."

The captain and Guanxing walked towards the source of the sound and saw the lantern craftsman. He had his back to the captain and the others, half-kneeling on the ground, holding a blade ready to deliver the final blow to the person on the ground.

The man lying on the ground was already powerless to resist and was about to die.

Guanxing tried to stop it, "Stop!"

Guanxing raised his hand and threw the fan, hitting the man on the back of the head. The craftsman dodged it and stood up calmly.

The captain suddenly discovered that the dying person lying on the ground was the shadow guard whom Mr. Stargazer had just sent to report to Rita.

Craftsman: "Haha, everyone is here this time."

……

After a few moves, Mr. Stargazer cornered the craftsman. He had no way to retreat, so he leaned against the wall and laughed sinisterly.

With a cracking sound, the human skin mask was torn, revealing the craftsman's strange mask.

Stargazing "Who are you?"

Craftsman "I am just a nobody."

Stargazing "What do you want to do by assassinating the Dark Guards and selling lanterns containing explosives?"

Craftsman: "If I had allowed this shadow guard to tip off the enemy, I would be the one lying on the ground."

The craftsman took out a lantern, and the captain knew that he was going to throw the lantern to divert our attention.

Captain "Mr. Stargazer, stop him!"

The captain picked up a wooden stick and blocked the lantern. At the same time, Guanxing flew forward and knocked the dagger out of the craftsman's hand, blocking his way.

The craftsman was at a disadvantage, but he was not panicked at all.

Stargazing "I advise you to give up struggling and surrender!"

Mr. Stargazer made a gesture, and the shadow guard who had been following us appeared from the darkness and stood behind us.

Stargazing "In the current situation, you are alone against three people, there is no chance of winning."

??? "That may not be the case."

Suddenly, a voice came from behind. The captain subconsciously felt something was wrong and hurriedly stood behind Guanxing.

The sharp blade pierced the captain's body.

[Stargazing/Under the Moon] "Mr. Assassin/Human!"

[Kiana] "How despicable! You actually attacked me by surprise! Fight me head-on if you can!"

[Traveler Ying] "Exactly. How can you be a hero if you launch a sneak attack?"

[Klee] "Bad guys, Klee is going to blow you up with the bouncing bomb!"

[Barbara] "May the God of Wind bless the captain and help him survive this disaster."

[Captain] "I'm fine, don't worry."

[Funina] "This kind of people who hurt others and even want to hurt the residents of the entire city should be sentenced to death, and must be sentenced to death!"

Video continues...

Blood flowed out, and the captain felt almost no pain, his attention focused on the dagger.

The captain remembered this dagger... This dagger was exactly the same as the one used to assassinate Mr. Stargazer! !

Stargazing "Betraying the Huang Nation, you know this is a capital crime!"

Shadow Guard: "So what?"

The shadow guard took off his mask, revealing a strange black mask underneath, exactly the same as the one worn by the craftsman.

[Kiana] "Wait a minute! Is that craftsman exactly the same as the Shadow Guard Captain's?"

[Captain] "Perhaps this kind of passerby character doesn't deserve his own appearance."

[Raiden Mei] "Didn't you ever doubt it before?"

[Stargazing] "I can only say that he hid himself very well. I personally selected all the shadow guards, but I didn't expect that there would still be some who slipped through the net."

[Otto] "Generally, such a large-scale explosion cannot be carried out by only one person, so we cannot let our guard down until the matter is completely resolved."

At this moment, the Captain and Mr. Stargazer were attacked from both sides. The lantern craftsman could still be dealt with, but the masked shadow guard might have extraordinary skills.

Stargazing "Captain...are you okay?"

Captain: "It's just a minor injury...don't worry."

Stargazing: "Then I'll leave the back to you, Mr. Assassin."

After a battle...

All the mechanisms set by the craftsman were destroyed. Guanxing dealt the craftsman a fatal blow. After a muffled thud, the craftsman lay on the ground and died.

The shadow guard's moves were strange and extremely difficult to deal with. Even when Mr. Stargazer and the captain attacked together, they could not immediately determine the winner.

The pain in the area that had just been stabbed by the shadow guard intensified, and the captain gradually became unable to bear it, with cold sweat rolling down his forehead.

Stargazing "It seems your companions can no longer help you."

Shadow Guard: "Life is death, and death is life. This is our destined fate."

Mr. Stargazer strode forward and attacked the shadow guard's vital point. The shadow guard obviously had no space to dodge, so he pulled the craftsman's body over to block the attack.

Stargazing: "...Heh...How despicable! You actually used your dead companion as a shield. If that lantern seller were on his way to the underworld, he would definitely laugh at you for being shameless."

Shadow Guard: "If it were your companion, he would also be willing to take the knife for you."

The shadow guard suddenly appeared behind Guanxing and swung his knife -

Captain: “Ugh…!”

Stargazing "Captain!"

Captain: "It's okay... Don't worry about me, I'm fine."

[Under the Moon] "Asshole! How dare you hurt my human again! I will cut him into pieces!"

Shadow Guard: "You're distracted. You obviously can't beat me with your soft help."

Stargazing "No, you can't beat me."

The captain suddenly discovered that the dying shadow guard who was lying on the ground was no longer there.

With a flash of cold light, the black dagger stabbed towards Mr. Guanxing. The captain tried to protect Mr. Guanxing again, but his body was extremely heavy.

??? “That’s it.”

The shadow guard's movements froze, and the sickle was already on his neck.

Dozens of guards approached, with sharp blades pressing against his flesh. If the shadow guard moved, his head and body would be separated immediately.

"Traitor, you are defeated. Tell me, who is behind you?"

Shadow Guard: "...Hehe...I am not being instructed by anyone, but for the purpose of...correction."

The captain found something like a capsule in his mouth. "Oh no! There's poison in his mouth!"

The guard at the side quickly pinched the shadow guard's mouth open, but it was too late, most of the poison had already been swallowed by him.

Shadow Guard: "Karma is a cycle. No matter how much you struggle... it's all... in vain..."

The shadow guard uttered his last sound, then tilted his head and died.

Rita: "I'm sorry, Master Stargazer, Master Captain... Rita is late. I was preparing for the disaster at that time. If it weren't for the seriously injured shadow guard who came, I'm afraid..."

Stargazing "It's okay, you came just in time."

[Keqing] "Fortunately, this person named Rita arrived in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."

[Stargazing] "I didn't expect to see her again in this way after such a long time..."

[Captain] "Don't be sad, I'll find a way to get you back, Stargazing."

[Theresa] "Since the murderer is gone, are Guanxing and the others safe now?"

[Otto] "Little Theresa, have you forgotten the real cause of Guanxing's death this time?"

【Fu Hua】“It’s not over yet.”
