Collapse: A little shock to the card world

Chapter 158: Forced Assassination

A stain of ink quickly spread across the lantern, and he glanced at the stargazer who seemed to be looking at the lantern with a guilty conscience.

He quietly moved to another corner and carefully wrote down a few crooked words.

Seeing that Yuan Yu seemed to be taking a long time, Guanxing couldn't help but ask.

"Are you ready, Captain..."

"Okay, okay... Now it's time to let it fly..."

Yuan Yu put down his brush and avoided Guanxing's gaze with a guilty conscience.

A good sky lantern was stained with a mole, and it is now ruined.

It's better to release it quickly and destroy the evidence...

"Well... the next step is to let it fly..."

Guanxing didn't notice Yuan Yu's strange expression. She looked at the sky lantern in front of her, and there seemed to be some sadness in her eyes.

A flame lit up inside the sky lantern, and the rising force caused it to shake slightly in the stargazer's hand.

"captain…"

Stargazing through the firelight, I seemed to see the faint blackness on the opposite side.

She was about to ask something when a strong hand grabbed her hand and snatched the sky lantern from her hand.

"Mr. Stargazer, please don't peek. If you see, your wish won't come true..."

"... "

Yuan Yu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Guanxing did not refute him, and then held the sky lantern horizontally in front of him.

"Then... let's just let it go..."

With a slight loosening of his fingers, the sky lantern slowly flew upwards from in front of them.

Gradually it became smaller, as if it had turned into a star in the sky.

Yuan Yu looked at the sky lantern, and Guan Xing looked at Yuan Yu...

Although all their plans were interrupted by this idiot, the sky lantern carrying their common wish has already tied them together tightly.

Even if they are separated by a distance farther than the stars, her thoughts can still be conveyed to him...

Mr. Assassin...

In the silence, the light of the Thousand Star Pavilion in the distance suddenly went out. No! The light of the entire Brilliant Moon City dimmed significantly.

"Why are the lights suddenly turned off on Qixi Festival? Could something have happened? Captain, let's go back!"

Guanxing frowned when he saw the sudden abnormality in the city, and hurriedly pulled Yuanyu and ran towards Huangyue City.

Yuan Yu did not resist and was pulled away obediently by her.

He looked at the dimly lit Huangyue City in the distance with deep eyes.

I barely made it through half of Qixi Festival, so I can say I have no regrets. Today is almost over, and I will see how far this world's counterattack can go...

Will a large group of gray snakes come directly to assassinate Guanxing, or will they create some unexpected situation...

"what!"

Guanxing's exclamation was heard, and Yuan Yu felt the hand holding him become heavier.

Is this... a missed step?

He suddenly grabbed a tree beside him, grabbed Guanxing with his other hand, and pulled her back with half a foot in the air, saying with some concern

"Is it okay!"

"No...I was a little careless..."

Before she could finish her words, a small green snake suddenly fell from the trees above and landed right on Guanxing's head.

Yuan Yu instantly raised his hand and grabbed it, but the little snake seemed determined to bite Guanxing and didn't even care about Yuan Yu who was holding it.

It suddenly stretched out its snake and pounced towards Guanxing, and finally stopped abruptly in front of Guanxing's nose. The whole snake turned into crystal and did not move.

"Really...how much money a day is it? You're working so hard..."

Yuan Yu speechlessly threw away the crystal in his hand, and then found that Guanxing's expression seemed a little wrong, and he couldn't help but look her up and down.

After confirming that there was no other damage, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mr. Stargazer?"

"…It's okay, but… Hey! Wait!"

Yuan Yu picked her up by the waist without waiting for her to finish speaking, quickly dodged several suddenly fallen trees, and ran quickly in the woods.

"The forest is very dangerous at night. Let's leave here first..."

"... "

Guan Xing lowered his head with a complicated look and said nothing more.

boom!

Yuan Yu jumped over a big tree that suddenly broke and fell, cursing in his heart.

Why is this world so violent? It feels like I've completely lost my temper...

These accidents are too outrageous! On this journey, an accident happens every now and then, and the frequency is increasing!

This isn't even an accident, it was clearly a forced killing!

The outline of Huangyue City appeared in front of him. Yuan Yu slowly stopped and stepped on a snake that had just raised its head to death.

I'm afraid we can't go back in this situation, otherwise we'll have a good time observing the stars while the city turns into a river of blood.

"That's it, Mr. Stargazer..."

"Um…"

After experiencing various accidents along the way, Guan Xing realized that it would be best not to set foot in Huangyue City at this time, so as not to bring accidents to the people in the city.

She looked at the dim city not far away, and a complex look flashed in her eyes.

"Qixi Festival is almost over, Captain, why don't you tell me what you are hiding from me..."

"... "

Yuan Yu was silent for a moment, then took Guanxing to an open ground and put her down.

"Mr. Stargazer should have made some guesses..."

Guanxing nodded slightly

"I'm just guessing there's some kind of danger hidden in the Huangyue City Lantern Festival. After all, the guards' actions are obvious. Is it related to that craftsman?"

Yuan Yu walked around, nipping out the dangerous buds one by one, while responding to Guanxing's

“Yes, the craftsman replaced all the lanterns with explosives, which will be detonated at the climax of the lantern festival.

Theresa said that the man who wanted to unify the three kingdoms before had subordinates secretly planning... Maybe they are his subordinates."

"Grey snake?"

"Yes, Theresa said it was the Gray Snake... What are you laughing at?"

As Yuan Yu was speaking, he suddenly noticed that Guanxing was holding a fan in front of his face, with curved eyebrows and eyes, as if smiling?

Is this what hits her funny spot?

Guanxing blinked, and the voice came from behind the fan.

"I just...thought of something happy."

"... "

Cough~

Stargazing coughed and changed the subject

"Oh right, the city suddenly went dark. I guess Rita and the others must have extinguished all the lanterns. Now that there's no danger in the city, Captain, please tell me about those strange things that happened just now..."

Yuan Yu sighed and looked towards a dark place

"Actually, those can be considered assassins, but their employer...is this world..."

sigh~

An arrow shot out suddenly, passing through the gap between Yuan Yu's outstretched fingers at an extremely tricky and even impossible angle.

Yuan Yu could only barely grab the tail feathers of the arrow, and then the whole arrow turned strangely, as if it had a navigation system, and flew directly towards Guanxing's heart.

Click~

Purple energy flashed, and the arrow turned into crystals and shattered to the ground.

Yuan Yu threw away a tail feather in his hand with a sullen face.

This so-called coincidence actually took his movements into account. Without absolute power, it would be quite difficult to deal with him...

A masked man holding a black umbrella walked out from the dark corner, but before he could say anything, he was pierced by a spear thrown by Yuan Yu, and turned into crystals and shattered onto the ground.

"I don't have time to listen to your nagging right now. Your colleagues might be a little more anxious than you..."

Yuan Yu looked at the black figures that kept coming out of the darkness around him, and the purple light in his eyes lit up slightly.

The energy of destruction continued to spread in all directions, and the black figures quickly crystallized. Before they took a few steps, they were completely turned into crystals and shattered on the ground.

However, there were still a steady stream of black figures coming from all directions.

Guanxing saw this familiar scene, looked at Yuan Yu's back deeply, and then walked to his side.

"...Captain, with so many enemies, I'll have the Shadow Guard go find Rita and ask her to transfer the guards over."

Yuan Yu shook his head, turned around suddenly, knocked the dagger out of the hand of a shadow guard behind him, and then grabbed his head and slammed it into the ground.

The shadow guard twitched slightly and then lost his voice.

"Just leave it to me, and... there aren't many people I can trust..."

"But, you..."

Yuan Yu touched Guanxing's head and gave him a reassuring look.

"My offense may be a little weak, but my defense... I can defend forever."

As he said, as more and more black figures continued to pour in, a clear circle appeared around them.

It was like a domain. Anyone who entered this range would have their body quickly crystallize and then shatter...
