Chapter 315 Are You Joking?
Chapter 315 Are You Joking?
Russell knew very well that villains die because they talk too much, so when Sheng Hanzu begged for mercy, he didn't even feel the slightest bit of a ripple in his heart.
After all, no one can be sure whether the other party has any hidden cards. What if his current weak appearance is just pretend?
Russell had no interest in gambling with his life, and he already knew everything he needed to know. He didn't think Sheng Hanzu could reveal any useful information.
Looking at the double-headed lance stabbing towards him mercilessly, the man with the weird face couldn't help but flash a hint of viciousness in his eyes.
Snapped--
The next moment, accompanied by a crisp snap of fingers, an invisible wave instantly swept over Nilu, and the green-haired antelope knight suddenly froze in place.
Seeing this, Russell looked calm, as if he had expected this scene: "Sure enough, there are still some tricks hidden."
After all, the opponent defeated Sister Lie in a one-on-one battle. Even if his combat power is not as good as those four cards, he is definitely not weaker.
Although the card has disappeared now, Sheng Hanzu's real body is definitely still capable of fighting.
But seeing him fleeing backwards in panic after freezing Nilu, Russell couldn't help but feel a little doubtful.
So far, the man opposite him has given him a strange feeling, which is totally different from the combat level that a normal diamond-level card maker should have.
The card did not play its due role at all, and the card himself seemed very arrogant, without any of the caution that an assassin should have.
Which assassin would waste so much time talking to the target of the mission, or even directly expose the employer behind him?
Although Sheng Hanzu did this because he felt he had a sure win over Russell, the dead cannot speak.
But to be honest, Russell even felt that Sheng Hanzu's performance was similar to his first battle.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but be startled: "First battle?"
"No way"
Considering that the people in the court did not want to reveal their identities and the other party's extremely niche card system, Russell felt that he seemed to have grasped the truth.
Unfortunately, there is no point in thinking about this now.
Watching Sheng Hanzu gradually running away, he just followed behind him not too far away, and from time to time asked Xiao Wu Airan and the others to harass him with long-range attacks.
Although Russell felt that the truth was most likely what he thought, he still had to be cautious. After all, a cornered dog will do something desperate.
At this time, Sheng Hanzu could only run wildly on the charred earth, and he couldn't even find a forest to hide his tracks.
Excalibur, with all his restraints removed, even shattered several mountaintops.
Sheng Hanzu barely dodged a spiritual spear by leaning sideways, then stumbled and fell to the ground.
Regardless of the burning scratches on his body, he used his hands and feet to crawl forward, muttering to himself: "I don't want to die. I don't want to die."
Just then, he saw the light in front of him being covered by a long shadow.
The extremely embarrassed man raised his head tremblingly, and saw the devil-looking card staring at him expressionlessly.
Sheng Hanzu quickly raised his hand and wanted to snap his fingers again
"what!!"
Screams filled with fear suddenly rang out across the charred earth.
At this moment, the diamond-level card maker had been nailed to the ground by a green spear through his right hand.
Sheng Hanzu, who had always lived a life of luxury, had never felt such pain before. You know, before today he had always played the role of a hunter.
Enduring the pain, he turned around tremblingly, but he couldn't see Russell's face clearly under the sunlight. He could only feel a cold gaze.
"Shake me free."
Tears and snot mixed into a ball on Sheng Hanzu's face, and he begged for mercy to Russell incoherently.
“I am willing to do anything.”
"Shake Me"
Looking at the assassin who was begging for mercy from a distance, Russell sighed helplessly: "At this point, you are not joking, are you?"
"Also, remember to keep your eyes open in your next life."
As he spoke, he waved to Xiao Wu.
laugh--
Hearing these familiar words, Sheng Hanzu looked down at his chest which had a big hole in it, and began to vomit large streams of blood: "Hehe."
Then, he looked at Russell with a resentful look on his face.
"Goo they won't"
puff-
Before he could finish his words, Xiao Wu launched another attack, but this time he aimed at the head.
Looking at the headless body that had completely lost its voice, Russell couldn't help but feel relieved: "There really is no backup plan."
But to be on the safe side, he still asked Yuanyi to cut Sheng Hanzu's body into small pieces.
After doing all this, Russell stroked his chin and muttered softly: "It's been so long, the people from the association should be here soon, right?"
"Should I stay and wait for them?"
After thinking for a moment, he decided to just run away.
Although the group of people in the court are unlikely to launch a second assassination attempt, it is still better to be cautious. He does not want to be attacked in turns.
What's more, his cards are not in good condition at the moment. Unohana Retsu has entered cooldown, and Altria will not be able to release the holy sword again in a short time.
As for Xiao Wu's three cards, although they did not suffer much damage, it is still a big burden for Russell to maintain so many cards for a long time.
Thinking of this, he didn't hesitate too much and immediately put away his cards and left the scene.
Not long after Russell left, several figures appeared in front of Sheng Hanzu's body one after another.
Among them are people Russell is familiar with, including Qi Ran, the president of the Qilu Ka Master Association, and his partner Cui Dazhu.
"Two diamond-level card makers." Seeing the situation at the scene, Qi Ran muttered to himself with a gloomy face, "And they are both illegal card makers who have never registered."
This was the first time she had seen such a terrible incident in her long career as president.
However, at this time, Cui Dazhu showed some doubt and surprise on his face, and then he said to Qi Ran in a strange low voice: "President."
"It seems that one of the two warring parties is Russell"
Hearing this, Qi Ran was stunned, then frowned and asked, "Are you sure?!"
If the woman remembered correctly, Master Bai's disciple should only be an Emerald-level card maker, right?
Cui Dazhu nodded hesitantly, then shook his head.
Although the atmosphere at the scene was indeed very familiar to him, and the destroyed environment around him was also extremely familiar.
But he still didn't dare to say with 100% certainty that one of them was Russell.
after all
Russell is at the Emerald level, and the two guys fighting here are undoubtedly at the Diamond level.
Seeing this, Qi Ran took a deep breath. She had already smelled something unusual: "No matter whether the other person is Russell or not, at least this person is not registered."
As she spoke, she pointed at Sheng Hanzu, who had turned into a meat paste on the ground.
"and"
She was about to continue speaking when she suddenly realized something was wrong.
Assuming that the other person is really Russell, then this is the second assassination attempt on him.
However, the last time, there were only three Emerald-level card makers.
After experiencing two assassination attempts in succession, she felt that there must be something else going on.
"Reunification?"
Qi Ran's eyes flickered, and then he instructed the card makers beside him: "Don't tell anyone what happened here today for now."
"You know what I mean."
Hearing this, everyone present lowered their heads and responded in unison: "Yes!"
Qi Ran didn’t think that this was a simple assassination case by Guiyi Sect, but if it wasn’t Guiyi Sect, then who could it be?
"The Begging Spirit Society?"
"still."
Just as she was thinking carefully, several auras were approaching this place at a very fast speed.
However, after feeling these auras, Qi Ran was not panicked. Instead, he raised his head thoughtfully.
A few breaths later, an old man with a dignified face arrived at the scene with several Emerald-level card makers.
"President Qi." The man nodded to Qi Ran first, and then asked directly about the situation, "Do you know the identities of the two parties involved in the fight?"
Hearing the other party's question, Qi Ran shook her head slightly: "The two diamond-level card makers are not registered."
"Speaking of which, Lord Sun, do you have any clues?"
Since the battle site was at the junction of Qilu and Shuntian Prefecture, it was impossible for their Qilu Card Master Association to send people to check out such a major incident.
The old man was none other than Lord Sun, the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture.
At this time, the old man glanced at the rotten meat on the ground, then smiled bitterly and said, "How could we have any information?"
"But I think it should be the group of shady people from the Qiling Society and Guiyi Sect."
Upon hearing this, Qi Ran nodded slightly, as if agreeing with what Lord Sun said.
She sighed and pinched her brows with a headache: "The situation in the Ming Dynasty is already bad enough, and the people from the Qiling Society are still ready to make a move."
"Then will you, Lord Sun, take care of the aftermath, or will I handle it?"
Having said that, Qi Ran looked at the old man opposite him calmly.
And Lord Sun said without any hesitation: "I will arrange it, so I won't bother President Qi."
"After all, the current situation in Qilu is not good."
The old man's words were so reasonable that Qi Ran couldn't even find a reason to refuse. She couldn't help but laugh: "Then I'll trouble you, Lord Sun."
"I have something important to attend to, so I'll take my leave now."
As soon as she finished speaking, she disappeared with a group of card makers from the Qilu Card Makers Association.
However, at this time Qi Ran already had a rough idea of the identities of the two warring parties.
One side is naturally Russell. Although I don’t know why the emerald level can kill the diamond level, it should be correct.
The other party was naturally the people sent by the imperial court.
If she was still a little uncertain at first, then Lord Sun's performance undoubtedly confirmed her guess.
The other party's eagerness to put the blame on the Qiling Society and the Guiyi Sect is too suspicious.
Thinking of Russell's astonishing talent, Qi Ran felt that everything that was happening now was not incomprehensible.
Thinking of this, she sighed silently in her heart.
"Let's talk to Master Bai and the others."
