The Flood Icing Hotel was a half official national property of Agnesa. The first to three floors were open to all guests, and the security was not incredibly tight. However, powerful people guarded the four floors and above, and the people living in it were all political leaders.

The entire second floor looked like an oval corridor maze. The entrance was in the outer corridor, and the stairs to the third floor needed to pass through the entire floor and enter the inner corridor. In an empty room on the right side of the stairs, Seckor, who sneaked into the room under his shadow, was leaning against the wall, waiting for the follow-up arrangement of Vyrut.

“It’s almost time for patrol. Get ready to listen to my order…” Vyrut was distracted for two purposes. While asking the bees about the monitoring situation, he continued to send a message calmly.

The time was almost up. With the order of Vyrut, the assassin fled out of the room and followed the order silently. He took advantage of the empty room on the second floor to flash through the line of sight of the guards. Like a ghost, he passed through the corridor and soon went upstairs smoothly.

The third floor of the hotel was another layout. There was only a corridor on the outer layer. In the center was a completely enclosed guard Pavilion made of steel. The stairs to the four floors were in the pavilion. There were lights everywhere in the corridor, and no dark corner could be found. There was no one living on the third floor. Only two pairs of guards patrolled slowly along the outer corridor. When they met, they would greet each other.

As usual, the Seckor hid in the room at the stairway, waiting for the follow-up news. Vyrut asked the Bee in a low voice, “Do you know changed the defense for the warriors on the three floors?”

“Not yet The last time I saw Dorin…”

Dorin…… This brainless muscle man is easy to deal with, but the late defender makes vyrut a little worried. Suddenly, he thought, “the Bee is sending out a command! It’s wolfwoman Fenia.

Wolfwoman…… Orcish is not challenging to deal with. Vyrut thinks about it and replies, “keep a close watch on the progress and keep it informed.”

The demon bee silently manipulates the monitoring point on the third floor. She can clearly see an enchanting woman in green-gray skin armor shaking her slender waist into the guard box through the only bee bug. She waited quietly for a moment, but no one came out, a little surprised.

“Dorin didn’t come out…” She told the truth without any personal opinion.

Not out? Vyrut was next tight, just about to ask, Seckor impatient voice came from his mind: “Hello! Isn’t it OK? I’m waiting for my feet to be sour! “

…… This impatient guy, Vyrut, scolded, and the voice explained: “things have changed. The defender is wolfwoman, and Dorin is not out yet…”

“They are all small minions. What are you afraid of! Start to work quickly. It’s boring to wait! “Seckor interrupted him impatiently, and complained, habitually touching the dagger on his waist.

…… If it wasn’t too far away, vyrut would have been interested in strangling this guy. But now it’s time-consuming and really has no hesitation. He made a plan for a moment. “Ready…” Vyrut allows the Bee to continue to monitor the sentry and sends out the command, “start.”

“Got it!” Seckor answered excitedly. He opened the door and stuck it to the wall at the corner of the corridor. He listened carefully to the footsteps coming from the distance and took out a thumb-sized black smoke bullet from his buckle.

After a while, two guards in grey clothes walked around the corner, laughing. Suddenly, they felt black in front of them. As soon as they were about to start calling, they were locked in their throats by an irresistible force. They only heard two sharp bone-cracking sounds almost at the same time. The guards fell down and could not move again.

The fog soon subsided. Seckor calmly picked up the two bodies one by one, walked back a few steps, and threw them into the room, gently bringing the door. He went around to the opposite side of the corridor and solved the remaining two patrol guards, who quickly hid in front of the central guard post. He looked forward against the crystal wall at the corner. The closed iron door was still locked, and nothing was heard.

“What to do?” He leaned his sleeve against the wall and asked Vyrut.

  “…… There’s no time. Force them out. Use that. “

“That? Are you sure? “

“Orcish has such a good sense of smell that she can’t stand it.”

“All right.” Seckor grinned and seemed to be looking forward to the plan. He flashed quietly outside the gate of the sentry box, looked at the crack at the bottom of the iron door, and reached for a sealed light proof bottle from the back of his belt. He carefully opened the bottle and put it on the ground. After a while, he slowly crawled out of the bottle, a small flat black beetle.

The beetle is about half the size of a thumb. It stops at the mouth of the bottle and shakes its tentacles as if to look at the threat ahead. Seckor squatted down and poked, and the black beetle crawled forward slowly. It stopped at the crack of the door, explored its size, and quickly got in like mud. The shadow assassin looks around carefully again, pulls down the sunglasses on his forehead, taps his toes, flies up to the crystal lamp stand high outside the door like willow catkins, and takes out two black smoke bombs to be ready to go.

After a while, a sharp woman screamed “stink to death” in the sentry box. Suddenly, the door opened, and a young woman in tight Leather Armor rushed out. She covered her nose with her hand in panic. Her long brown hair was in a mess, and her leather armor was slanting away. It was obvious that she was doing something good in the house.

Then a burst of loud laughter, a naked man with curly tendons quickly followed her out. The man was almost taller than the iron gate. His short golden hair was braided in small braids and hung behind his head. He had a huge gold ring around his ear and a black sheath knife around his waist.

The muscle man laughed a few times. Seeing that the woman was still holding on to the corner of the wall, he bent over to retch. He quickly stepped forward and patted her on the back and joked, “honey, a little bug scares you like this? You are too timid.

“Son of a bitch! And How dare you laugh at me! “Wolfman’s nose was so bad that she could hardly remember it.

Dorin, the muscle man, burst into laughter again and tried to comfort her. Suddenly, she heard two extremely light cracking sounds, and the moment before, she was dark. Subconsciously, he hugged the wolfwoman around him, shining gold all over his body, and adding a layer of steel like divine power light armor to his skin.

Although the state of the wolfwoman is extremely poor, she still uses her magic power. A burst of gray light floats over her. Her originally enchanting face instantly turns into a ferocious wolf head, her hands are sharp claws protruding, and her arms are covered with long black hair, just like a half-human and half-wolf monster.

The two hotel guardians are not slow to respond, but the shadow assassin obviously doesn’t care. In the next second of the black fog appearance, countless shadow like lightning suddenly arrived, whirling around the two people, making the sound of the impact of gold and iron.

Dorin snorted angrily. Just as he was about to pull out his waist knife, he felt a strong force holding his neck from his back. He quickly swung his right hand and slapped it on his back. However, the force suddenly disappeared, which made him feel his palm in vain. Even if it is a muscular man with rough skin and thick flesh, he can’t stop the blood in his chest when he is hit by his anger.

In the next moment, the light of the knife suddenly appeared, straight from his ear to the temple. There was a grinding sound that made people bared their teeth. The black light dagger almost smashed Dorin’s body protection light. It was at the moment of life and death that a pair of black claws flashed across his body like lightning and took the assassin’s arm. Seckor quietly dispersed into a black fog and retreated into the shadow.

After a lightning flint-like raid, the black smoke quickly dissipated, and the light reappeared on the field. Dorin is still protecting the wolfwoman. He looks around warily. Sweat drips from his forehead. He is shocked by the fatal blow that he almost got and breathed heavily.

“Dorin, go and ring the alarm! I’ll cover it!” Wolfman shook his head and drank heavily against the wall. Her leather armor had been damaged in many places. Those strange shadows obviously caused her a lot of damage.

“Let’s go together!” Dorin didn’t listen to her advice, grabbed wolfwoman’s arm, took her, and ran to the sentry box.

But when he took the first step, countless black snakes suddenly emerged from the two people’s shadow, and they were unable to move. Dorin madly urges the inner divine power to resist the omnipresent erosion of the dark power. Still, a wolfwoman low cry comes from his ear, which makes him sweat.

“Fenia！” Dorin tries his best to push the light armor out and shake away the black shadow. He turns back suddenly and sees the wolfwoman lying on the ground motionless. Her magic power subsides and becomes a woman’s form.

Dorin felt that he was hit by a huge hammer in his head. He half knelt down to see his unknown partner—a blacklight shot out of wolfwoman’s body. Seckor, armed with a dagger and under cover of wolfwoman’s body, went straight to Dorin’s heart.

Under the shock and anger, Dorin burst into a big drink, burning his magic power at all costs, and his skin was full of cracks. His golden light was so strong that he almost materialized. The shadow assassin’s tricky attack was successfully blocked by the suddenly strengthened light armor. Seckor took advantage of the situation to turn back and stand at a distance.

The burning of divine power will not last long. Dorin gasps fiercely and rushes towards Seckor like a cartridge. He took out a short knife and cut it horizontally. The golden blade was swung a foot away. However, the shadow assassin jumped up easily to avoid it.

Seckor’s body twined with black light as if he had no weight flying in the air. He stepped on the short knife with the tip of his foot and wielded the dagger to stab Dorin’s throat. For a moment, time seems to be stagnant, and the blacklight on the dagger suddenly shrinks, forming a sharp spot on edge. Dorin’s gold armor was like paper paste, and the blade was straight through his neck.

As soon as the shadow assassin gets a good shot, Dorin flies back. Dorin stares in disbelief and covers the dagger firmly stuck in his throat, and his massive body collapses. He struggled to cough up a few puffs of blood foam and turned to look at the wolfwoman’s body not far away. “Fenia……” The light in his eyes quickly disappeared, convulsed violently, and then there was no movement.

Vyrut watched Seckor retrieve the dagger from Dorin’s throat through his divine vision, then glanced at the spatter of blood. The voice reminded him to clean up the scene, and whispered to the Bee, “send for the fourth floor.”

The Bee nodded in silence, controlling all the bees on the third floor to fly up the stairs. Seckor watched the string of wasps disappear behind the stone steps. He picked up Dorin’s body and wiped the blood on the floor. He grabbed the huge cow-like body, but it seemed effortless. He came to the wolfwoman, took her body with him, and went straight into the sentry box.

There was only a square table, a few wooden chairs, and some miscellaneous books on the table. Seckor looked around, went to the table, and put the two bodies in the posture of lying on the table. Do an excellent job on the cover. The assassin will bend down on the ground to check carefully and soon found his baby butt.

“Hard work for you !” Seckorl took out the dark bottle and carefully retrieved the beetle. He poured a dry fruit into the bottle and sealed it with a kickback strap. He clapped his hands and was about to go up when Vyrut’s warning came to his mind.

“Wait, there is something wrong with the four floors.”  Vyrut’s face was cold, and the sudden strange situation made his heart palpitate inexplicably. “Bee, how is it going?”

“……I can see nothing, and the bees were still decreasing! Damn it… “Bee was sweating heavily. Her body trembled weakly. The counterattack caused by the death of the bees made her extremely nervous, and almost collapse. Not long after, a burst of chaotic magic ripples swept through the whole room. Bee fell to the ground with a scream and fell into a coma.
