    Although Earl Boreham had full confidence in those intelligence personnel, Barrett did not really believe that they could really plunge the main towns of the Kingdom of Lucia into chaos.  At most, it will subvert some small towns in the fringe areas, and it will be difficult to affect the overall situation in a short period of time.  But after all, Barrett is just a small figure now, and few people will care about his suggestions on this kind of issue.  Therefore, we can only train in the camp while waiting for the final results to arrive.  Located in the city of Lucia in the east, Camp Nohan ushered in the baptism of darkness earlier. The red glow in the evening was trying hard to resist the intrusion of the night, shining with brilliant brilliance.  The moon quietly revealed its outline from behind the clouds, and the dividing line between day and night clearly appeared in the sky.  Because of the war during this period, the city gates were closed much earlier than usual.  So it's not dark yet tomorrow, and it's completely closed here.  But before the war reached here, although the lives of these civilians were greatly affected, they still stubbornly moved forward along the existing route.  As a border city, Ulrika relies on the trade between the two countries to survive far more auxiliarily than ordinary inland cities.  But after turning into a small street from the main avenue of the bustling business district, walking for a while and then turning into an alley, people found the lower city, where the poor people in the city live, giving the impression of being a mess.  In this area that decent people never set foot in, thatched roofs of protection stand close together.  Few people would have thought that there would be a complete and solid basement under this shabby house made of wooden boards and thatch.  The brick walls were cold and damp, and felt sticky to the touch.  Moreover, in the slightly gloomy corridor, the torches on the wall burned steadily, as if there was not a trace of wind flowing into it.  Under the dim light, you can see well-growing moss at the bottom of the wall and in the corners.  At the same time, the slightly musty smell also makes anyone who walks in frown.  On the slate-paved floor, there is a layer of a mixture of sawdust and fine sand about 1 cm thick, which seems to be used to prevent moisture.  There were countless round barrels placed on the ground, each covered with a thin layer of dust.  However, this basement with piles of barrels always reveals a bit of mystery, making people want to find out.  There is a candlestick placed on the low wooden table against the wall. The small flickering flame on the candle is also extremely dim, which matches the environment here. It looks very harmonious, but it is also so depressing and breathless.  A slightly excited voice pierced through the shadow of the candlelight: "I didn't expect that this time would finally come." "York, you should be calmer, we must find the most suitable opportunity to strike. Don't let someone miss you before then.  Caught." At this time, a voice came from the corner of the room.  York, who was named, said nonchalantly: "Don't worry! I'm not a little kid anymore. I know what's important at this time." "I hope you will do what you say, I don't think the resurrection spell will affect us.  "The night is getting deeper, and even the hustle and bustle in it has gradually faded away.  Accompanied by the dim light projected from the houses on the street, York walked towards his home with quite steady steps.  At this moment, he came face to face with a mysterious man hiding himself under a hood, but this image was very common in the lower city after dark.  There are a lot of shady businesses here every day, and the people who maintain this kind of business are all these guys who don't want to show their true colors. But just when the two passed by, the other party turned around and raised his short hair, which he had been hiding beside him.  A short sword among the sticks.  The cold light of the flowing sword flashed under the light, making York's pupils shrink in shock.  ¡°If York was really just an ordinary jeweler, he might have died.  But after all, he is no longer a craftsman with strong muscles and dexterous hands.  Facing the sudden attack, after surviving the initial chaos.  He pushed back with his strong legs and narrowly escaped death.  But the constant pain in his chest told York that he was injured.  The opponent's sharp blade cut through his coat and the thin silk armor hidden under the loose clothing.  When he was suddenly attacked, he remained calm and pulled out the short knife from his boots with his backhand.  Lifting it diagonally, the general's sword caught the opponent's next stab.  Then he hooked to the right and swung it away.  The man¡¯s expression could be said to be as ugly as if he had eaten shit.  Perhaps it was an accident that the sword he was determined to win was initially dodged by the target.  Then the following pursuit was deflected by the opponent's understatement backhand. How could this confident guy not be surprised!  It¡¯s a pity that when life and death are at stakeThe taboo thing is to be soft-hearted. York, who has never really seen blood, actually forgot to pursue the victory.  Here you can give the man opposite you enough time to respond.  The opponent used a fighting method that was close to the double-sword style, and pointed the wrought iron cane back towards York.  The latter had to raise his knife to parry again. Taking this opportunity, the man waved his forehand, seemingly preparing to end York's life.  Facing the horizontal slash from the sword, York quickly laid his body back and controlled his body to fall directly to the ground.  Then it kept rolling on the ground.  This is one of the skills that rogues are best at, rolling. Of course, if you want to use it well, you not only need to pay attention to skills, but also need to practice for a long time.  After creating a distance with seemingly embarrassing movements, York took out his belt and threw it towards the man in front of him.  "Ding dong! Ding dong!" accompanied by two sounds of metal iron rings hitting the stone floor.  York's stumble belt hits him successfully.  It's a pity that although it restricted the opponent's movements to a certain extent, it was not able to make the opponent fall.  At the same time, York jumped forward and rolled.  He waved the short sword in his hand as if he was swinging it wildly and without any rules.  But this seemingly unorganized attack never leaves the opponent's three paths.  At the same time, the silver-gray crutch on his left arm has become a fulcrum for his defense.  For a moment, he successfully restrained the opponent's dagger.  Use your own advantages to make up for the gap between the two.  York's biggest problem is his hunchback, which makes him, who is not bad at height, seem to be at a disadvantage when facing the opponent head-on.  But this kind of occupational disease is almost a common practice for tailors and jewelers in this era. After all, this is the price of bending over and working in the workshop all day long.  So by using such conditions to focus on the opponent's lower body, York quickly achieved results.  Although he is not a knee destroyer like the Hobbit, York did leave a deep wound on the opponent's knee.  With the impact of such pain, the other party's body naturally stagnates.  Taking this opportunity, York leaned forward, then stretched out his left hand to support his body, and then made an inverted "cartwheel" movement.  Immediately afterwards, his legs quickly formed an arc from bottom to top, and he kicked the opponent's chin hard.  After knocking the opponent to the ground with this blow, York swooped forward and hit Chance on the head with his round knife handle.  The uncontrollable severe pain tore all thoughts and perceptions to pieces, and soon, the attacker in front of him knew nothing.  After the battle was resolved, York did not dare to go home or go to the previous gathering place.  He didn't know whether he was exposed now or the entire line was exposed.  He first endured the pain and opened the end of the round handle, took out a gray-brown pill and chewed it in his mouth.  Then he took out a few plasters from the waistband of his trousers and carefully applied them to the mountain pass.  After completing all this, York began to carefully flip through the belongings of the attacker in front of him, hoping to find something to prove his identity, or something that would be helpful to him. Although York, who was attacked, should theoretically be moved as soon as possible,  But in fact, it is not that short of time.  - Will be added tomorrow - Weapons of this style are only common in the Pamir region in the entire Western Continent.  But it¡¯s really rare for an assassin to be able to force Qiaoji to this point!  "After looking at the weapon in front of him, Knight Val came to such a conclusion. He held the kukri in his hand, then shook it seemingly casually and put it back in the package  However, Georgie still saw the dark and cold light in Val's eyes, and the face that was as smooth as the Mid-Autumn moon seemed to have become a painted canvas.  Coupled with the slightly clenched teeth and the unmistakable wrinkles between his eyebrows, he almost accurately informed others of his anger. After a while, after he returned to normal, he said in a slightly stiff tone: "Fortunately.  You have no contact with this kukri, otherwise you will inevitably be weak for a few days.  If you are unlucky, you may have to find a priest to perform a restoration spell.  " "You mean this is a cursed item?  "Georgie began to feel glad that he had been cautious. Although according to Val Knight, the supernatural ability possessed by this thing would not kill him. But if it really made him weak, for Georgie  It is also a troublesome thing, especially when you have just encountered an assassination, which adds a lot of unnecessary risks out of thin air. ¡°Curse item?  "Knight Val was stunned for a moment, and then his words looked like frost.His expression finally melted a little.  He shook his head with a wry smile and said, "It's not a cursed item! The so-called cursed items are a collective name for some items that have negative effects. They basically don't distinguish between friend and foe. Almost no one would treat something like that.  Use it as your main battle weapon, not to mention those assassins who are wandering on the edge of life and death" The most famous cursed object in Qiaoji's mind was a dwarf who was thrown into the crater by a hairy foot.  The ring and other accessories included!  In the world of Middle-earth, when God created the elves, he gave them wisdom, magic, and immortal bodies. The price for their immortality was to see with their own eyes that the country they created was gradually invaded by time and destroyed by external dark forces.  In order to delay the invasion of time and preserve beautiful things, the elves used wisdom and magic to create some rings.  The Dark Lord Sauron discovered this intention, so he disguised himself as a wise man and said that he would use more superior magic to help the elves create the ring.  The elves were deceived and let him take the lead in the creation process, creating a total of 19 rings. At the same time, Sauron also secretly used his own blood and magic to create a "Supreme Lord of the Rings", which can gather the power of other Lord of the Rings.  , and secretly control the thoughts of the person wearing the Ring.  But the elves and dwarves were not controlled, only the nine weak-willed human kings. In order to gain more honor and status, they used the Lord of the Rings for a long time, and finally turned into nine "ring spirits" who will always obey the call of darkness.  Generally speaking, there are two sources of cursed items. One is a flaw in the magic item itself, and the other is the harmful magic item that someone maliciously created just mentioned.  The process of making magic items in this world is very delicate and complicated, and sometimes errors will inevitably occur.  After all, there is no standardized quality control system in this era.  And as far as quality control is concerned, magic is not very realistic.  After all, magic itself is still very mysterious. In many cases, even the most knowledgeable great arcane masters cannot truly understand how magic works.  So when making magic items, even if you are extremely careful, some unexpected mistakes will happen.  For example, in the wand of a certain "Nana" magician: it was because the soul of a mouse got into it when it was forged, so the wand could not cast spells when it heard a cat meowing.  Even if everything is perfect during the manufacturing process, it does not mean that there will be no problems with the item.  Time can change everything, even magic is often no exception.  As the magic power changes, especially magic items that have been under the influence of powerful magic fields, realm channels, other magic items or creatures for a long time, they often undergo wonderful changes.  For example, the magic potions found in ancient tombs may have lost their magic or have undergone subtle changes. As a result, the potion for treating minor injuries will cause damage, and the potion for cow power will turn a person into a bull.  (To be continued.)
