Due to the gradual fading of mage's glory, coupled with the gradual decline of mage's status in this world, in Xiuyin's era, the number of people who want to become mages is not even a fraction of the number of people who dream of becoming knights.

Therefore, duels between mages and fighters are not common.

Especially Master Xiao En, who is as strong as a magister. The assassin in front of him is regretting why he chose such a difficult opponent.

Isn't it said that mages are most afraid of melee combat?

However, in front of Master Xiao En, this assassin who had a lot of experience in assassination tactics could not get any advantage at all. The reaction is also quick, otherwise he would have died before Sean's arcane spell at this time.

Through observation, Xiu Yin discovered that Master Xiao En's figure didn't actually move, but the cooperation between the wind shield on his left hand and the wind blade released from time to time by his right hand was particularly delicate.

"This is actual combat experience gained through countless battles!"

What Xiu Yin thought was right, Master Xiao En relied on his actual combat experience with fighters, and the fact that assassins were very uncomfortable with the fighting methods of mages, which led to the obvious advantage of Xiao En.

The three assassins were entangled with Lynn Cove, Kiloch, and Sean respectively, while the remaining two assassins were much more relaxed in front of the guards of Marquis Fell.

The bodies of two Marquis guards lay down on the ground again, and Fer let out a terrified cry, and even the guards who stood in front of him showed expressions of fear.

The strength gap is too great!

This scene surprised Xiu Yin too. The marquis's guards should all be fighters with spirit power at level 4 to 5, but they were so passive in the face of two assassins. The strength of the assassins should far exceed these guards.

Xiu Yin swallowed his saliva and felt the little soul power left in his body, "If those two assassins finish off Marquis Fell, they might turn around and deal with Master Xiao En right away..."

Xiu Yin and the people on the VIP platform, including Marquis Fell and Lynn Cove, didn't have any deep feelings for each other, but for Master Xiao En, it might be from a minority of people who majored in spiritual power. Because of the sympathy for each other, Xiu Yin decided to make a move.

Originally, he wanted to use the small crossbow in his left arm, but after careful consideration, he decided not to expose this killer weapon too early. Looking at the dagger in his hand, it was obviously not a suitable weapon for Xiu Yin.

Then the remaining attack method is magic.

"The remaining soul power is probably enough to release a lethal fireball technique..." Xiu Yin changed to hold the short sword with his left hand, leaving his right hand free to prepare for the fireball technique.

Fireball is not a spell with a high-speed attack trajectory, and Shuyin needs to get closer.

With the cover of thick smoke, Xiu Yin quietly walked around to a place close to the two assassins who were attacking the marquis's guard. When they could see their backs, Xiu Yin concentrated his mental power into the palm of his right hand.

Xiuyin's fire-generating soul power quickly began to materialize into a flame entity on the palm of his hand.

In just an instant, a fireball condensing Xiu Yin's level 2 soul power appeared in his palm, and the blazing fire ball made Xiu Yin feel a burning sensation on his face.

Then there was another standard action of throwing a grenade. At the same time as the fireball appeared in his right hand, Xiu Yin threw the fireball at the two assassins whose backs were facing him.

Xiu Yin chose to attack the assassin on the left, first left and then right, Xiu Yin would not worry about choosing a target like this. In the maze forks encountered in some RPG games in the original world, Xiu Yin would choose to go to the left first without hesitation.

call--

With a slight whistling sound, a fireball slammed heavily into the back of the assassin who was unfortunately chosen by Xiuyin.

"what!"

The black clothes burned quickly, causing the assassin to let out a scream of pain.

This sound immediately attracted the attention of the remaining four assassins. When they saw their companions being attacked, they were a little surprised at first, but then an assassin who was fighting with Master Xiao En quickly rushed to the place that was attacked by Xiu Yin. After the companion swung a knife to cut the clothes on the burning back, even though the flames were extinguished, he could see that the companion's back was already scorched.

The assassins obviously cooperated very tacitly in normal times. The assassin who was supporting his companion quickly left the VIP table, took a few steps with his companion and disappeared into the thick smoke outside.

"Humph!"

The assassin trembling with Lynn Cove let out a cold snort. Xiu Yin's sudden appearance surprised him a bit, but after seeing the corpses of several envoys from the capital on the ground, he judged that this assassination operation would stop here.

The short knife in his hand suddenly exerted force, and after forcibly shaking Lynn Cove away, he shouted at the remaining two assassins, "Retreat!"

This assassin should be their leader. Hearing the leader's order to retreat, the other two did not dare to neglect. Almost at the same time, they erupted with a force that far exceeded what they had just displayed, fighting for the opportunity to jump backwards.

The retreat of the assassin made the guards in front of the Marquis of Fair heave a sigh of relief. There were originally more than a dozen guards, but now less than half were left.

The panicked face of Marquis Fell slowly returned to its previous majesty after seeing the assassins start to retreat.

"Just want to run away like this?!"

Seeing that the assassin in front of him was about to slip away, Kilok refused to let him go easily, so he jumped to catch up with him.

Whoosh!

Just when Kilok's eyes locked on the retreating assassin, a short knife shot out from the thick smoke and threw it directly at the Marquis of Fair.

"It's going to happen!" Kilok yelled in surprise, his body was still jumping in mid-air, although he saw the flying knife when it came out, but it was too late to change his body shape to pick it off.

"Whoa!"

The Marquis of Fell screamed at this moment, shaking the fat on his face. A life-threatening throwing knife was about to hit his head in his vision, and the guards around him saw the assassin retreating. Already relaxed, it was too late to protect the Marquis of Fair.

Just when everyone thought that things were about to get out of hand, a small shadow caught up with the dagger that was thrown from diagonally behind.

Boom!

The short knife was hit by the tiny shadow in the air, and the attack line was slightly shifted.

Bang!

The dagger was stabbed fiercely into the wooden post next to the head of Marquis Fell, and the handle of the knife was still trembling. At this time, a violent liquid had already begun to appear on Marquis Fell's lower body.

The Marquis of Fell was fine, which made Kilok heave a sigh of relief. If the just-promoted Marquis died in the hands of the assassins like this, there might be unforeseen turmoil in the Starlight Kingdom...

"But..." Kilok turned around, looking through some smoke, where a small black shadow and the ball of fire just now came from.

There, Kilok saw the red-haired boy sitting on the ground.

The boy was holding his left arm flat, and on that arm, Kilok saw a small and delicate crossbow.

The young man who saved Lord Marquis, Kilok had already remembered his name——Huin.
