Chapter 290: Don’t Even Think About Stopping the War
It was the middle of the night.
Ebenezer, who was disguised as a Bard, walked silently through the remote alley.
It had been three days since he began to assassinate the Feathered Monsters and Bards.
In these three days, Ebenezer had killed 24 Feathered Monsters and 26 Bards. At the same time, his strength had also improved through the continuous assassinations. He had successfully advanced to level 29 and was just one step away from becoming a level 30 creature.
He was currently on the hunt for his 51st target, a Bard whose strength was only at level 32.
Ebenezer remembered Vincent’s teachings and followed behind his target very patiently. He also observed the situation around him in a calm manner. He was waiting for the perfect opportunity to assassinate him.
Suddenly, the target in front of Ebenezer stopped and stood in the middle of an intersection for some unknown reason.
Ebenezer thought to himself, “The surroundings are wide and open. It’s the most unsuitable environment for assassinations!”
Ebenezer, who had been calm the entire way, could no longer remain calm. He immediately took a few steps forward and turned into a black shadow. He pounced on the Bard who was standing at the intersection. He raised his hand and slashed down on him and ended his life skillfully.
At that moment, many footsteps were heard around the intersection.
“F*ck! He succeeded again. Quick, catch him. We can’t let our brothers die in vain!”
“All of you, charge forward and tear that killer into pieces!”
The footsteps were accompanied by a series of shouts. Ebenezer, who was still on the target like a shadow, saw countless Bards swarming towards him from all directions at the intersection. He suddenly had a realization.
It turned out that this was an operation to lure the snake out of its hole. They had used the weaker Bards as bait. They wanted to lure him out to surround and attack him!
Ebenezer did not panic at all at that moment. Thanks to Vincent’s teachings, he remained calm as he thought about how to escape. In the end, Ebenezer thought of a very good idea!
His black shadow flashed past. He left the corpse on the ground and turned towards the Bards. In a flash, he rushed into the crowd that was in front of him. After a few flashes, he disappeared into the vast sea of Bards.
At that moment, the Bards who had gathered at the intersection were all in a daze. To find a Bard among hundreds of Bards was like looking for a needle in a haystack. However, they had actually seen a Bard kill their companion.
This meant that there was a mole in the Bard Race!
“Damn, quickly report this to the leader. There’s a mole in the Bard Race!”
The core members who were in charge of luring the snake out of its hole instantly realized the seriousness of the situation. They hurriedly called over their subordinates to run towards the stronghold.
When all the Bards had left, a black shadow slowly appeared on the distant street, finally revealing Ebenezer’s figure.
“You still want to catch me? Dream on!”
After laughing coldly, Ebenezer turned around and walked towards the alley where he lived.
When Ebenezer entered his residence, he suddenly rushed into the room with a sense of alertness in his heart. His two arms turned into sharp blades and slashed through the air.
“Boom!”
A ball of flame followed Ebenezer’s arms and exploded into countless tiny sparks in the air. However, these sparks did not dissipate. Instead, they maintained their burning state and floated in the air.
After seeing this, Ebenezer quickly stopped and took two steps back. He lowered his head and said respectfully, “Master!”
The sparks in the room slowly began to gather and finally condensed into Vincent’s appearance.
Vincent looked at his disciple who had improved in strength and nodded his head in satisfaction. He said, “You’ve worked hard these past few days. The Bard Race and Feathered Monster Race have engaged in battle. In just three short days, the number of casualties on both sides has already exceeded 100. You don’t have to fight anymore. Both sides should not fight until they suffer heavy losses!”
Ebenezer was a little disappointed when he heard that, but he still said respectfully, “Your disciple understands! It’s just that I killed another Bard just now, but I accidentally fell into an ambush. They saw me turning into a Bard. This won’t bring any trouble to master, right?”
Vincent frowned slightly when he heard that. After thinking carefully for a while, he said, “No worries. The original owner of the Bard necklace was Adolphus. He would definitely not let others know of the existence of such special equipment. Therefore, even if they found out that you had the appearance of the Bard, they would not think that you used special equipment to change your appearance. Perhaps they have already begun to thoroughly investigate the race’s traitor! But you cannot use this necklace in the future. You should stay in seclusion for now, and don’t go out again. Give me the necklace. I’ll find an opportunity to dispose of it!”
“Yes!”
Ebenezer did not hesitate and handed over the necklace to Vincent.
Vincent weighed the necklace in his hand and said, “Your place is still rather crowded. Now that you are stuck with your original appearance, you must not get recognized by others. There must be someone monitoring my residence nearby. You can hide over at Adolphus’s place for now. Coincidentally, I still need to discuss a business deal with him in a few days!”
“Your disciple will leave now!” replied Ebenezer. He then flashed out of the room.
After Ebenezer left, Vincent held the necklace in his hand and walked straight to the Paradise of Desire.
The current Paradise of Desire had become the new stronghold of the Feathered Monsters. Many core members gather there every day. They guarded the biggest entertainment industry in the capital of Ultimate Evil while taking the opportunity to also have some fun.
Two core members of the Feathered Monsters who had been drinking to their heart’s content were chatting with each other while leaning against the wall of Paradise of Desire.
“Damn it! The Bards are all thieves now. They hardly ever come out alone anymore. Occasionally, they will even run into a fishing bait. If this continues, it will be more and more troublesome to assassinate the Bards!”
“You’re right! After such a long grudge, it is finally time for us to make a move. The brothers have only been happy for less than three days. They can no longer make a move. It would be great if we could find a way to assassinate the Bards without them noticing us!”
“That’s easy for you to say. What kind of special equipment would we need if we don’t want to be discovered by the Bard? Unless it falls from the sky, where else can we get it?”
As soon as the two core members of the Feathered Monster Race finished speaking, a necklace fell from the sky and onto one of their necks. The Feathered Monster instantly transformed into a Bard.
“Damn! What’s going on?”
The other Feathered Monster who thought that he had drunk too much rubbed his eyes and looked at his companion in shock.
His companion could not help but be surprised when he saw his appearance through the wine bottle. He then said with a face full of joy, “There really is a good thing that fell from the sky! With this necklace, I can kill as many Bards as I want!”
After his companion heard what he said, he quickly replied, “Sigh, kid, don’t take it all for yourself! Later, let your brothers experience it one by one!”
“Don’t worry! When I have enough fun, there will definitely be a time when my other brothers will have fun! The Feathered Monster who had transformed into a Bard threw away the bottle in his hand and staggered toward the new stronghold of the Bard Race.
Vincent, who was in the dark, only turned around and left after seeing the scene.
The chaos had to be maintained before he wanted it to stop!
