You sneer silently, but you feel sowhat regretful that Farkas didn’t stop and instead chased directly after his target.
From the last close combat, you have gained so understanding of Farkas’s abilities. Fighting him one-on-one, you are currently not his match, let alone with Lei Nuoyi nearby.
In fact, you are looking for an opportunity to poison.
You took several bottles of poison from Manni, all of which are highly toxic.
According to Manni, once the poison is ingested, even the mightiest of warriors cannot escape their deadly fate. However, you have been unable to find an opportunity to administer the poison for three consecutive days and the Human Coalition is about to join forces with the Elf Coalition. Once the armies rge, completing your mission will be impossible. Over these three days, your only gains have been learning about the layout and internal conflicts of the Human Coalition.
For example, the three great empires of humans all harbor suspicions against each other; while they seem harmonious on the surface, in private, each eagerly seeks opportunities to weaken the others.
Like last ti, your move "Thousand Blade Mountain" took the lives of thousands from the Xuanqin Empire, many of whom were elite knights, which internally delighted the leaders of the other two nations.
Looking again at your current targets, Farkas and Lei Nuoyi, Farkas is troubled by the emotional changes in Lei Nuoyi and is woken by nightmares every night. For three days, he has been having the sa nightmare, where a handso man relentlessly pursues him without a hint of resistance, rely at the rcy of the man who kills him.
What drives him mad is that in the dream, this man affectionately hugs his beloved Lei Nuoyi, his face filled with arrogant disdain for everything else.
At the sa ti, you can’t wait any longer.
You know that after today, it will be very difficult to find an opportunity to take action.
The Elf species has the ability to see through the night, and with your current capabilities, you simply cannot break through their patrol lines to assassinate Farkas.
That night, after three days of preparation, you sneak into the camp where Farkas is staying.
Since that night he parted from Lei Nuoyi, Farkas has not seen her again, as if she is intentionally avoiding him.
Because of this, Farkas has been incredibly sullen all day. Drinking alcohol is prohibited in the human army, but he has been drinking heavily for these three days. If it were according to the military laws of the Human Empire, Farkas would not only lose his command but might even face imprisonnt.
Tonight presents the best opportunity for you to assassinate Farkas, which naturally you will not miss.
For this purpose, you specifically hide beneath the orderly soldier who delivers als to Farkas. Yes, this phrase isn’t misprinted; you truly hid in the soil behind the orderly soldier.
During your training in the Vein of Earth Elent, you learned a skill from the Earth Elental Spirit, the Earth Travel Technique. However, you haven’t mastered this technique completely due to insufficient strength, allowing you only to move slowly through the soil. You can’t move too quickly, nor can you burst through the soil swiftly to perform a high-quality assassination.
Moreover, the magic shield can penetrate underground, so you can only follow behind the orderly soldier, waiting for the guards to open the defensive gate of the magic shield.
Before the orderly soldier picked up the food, you had already poured half a bottle of poison into the wine and also sprinkled so on the food. When the guarding soldiers opened the defense magic shield, you followed them at the fastest speed but did not act imdiately; instead, you hid under the shadows outside the commander’s tent.
"Nuoyi, Nuoyi, why must you treat this way?" Farkas keeps bringing up Lei Nuoyi, showing his deep affection for her.
After the orderly soldier delivers the als, he quickly leaves, not wanting to witness Farkas drinking as failing to report knowledge of a cri is also a serious offense.
You stealthily made a small opening outside the commander’s tent and through the gap, you saw Farkas lying on the bed, shouting loudly. Maybe he got thirsty from shouting, as he grabbed a bottle of wine and guzzled it down abruptly.
Seeing Farkas finish the wine in the bottle and tossing it aside carelessly, you felt the timing was ripe.
Instantly, you sprang to your feet, drew the Tusks, and imdiately charged into Farkas’s commander’s tent.
Farkas, after all, was no ordinary man. Even in his drunken haze, he sensed the murderous aura and his body reacted with utmost speed.
However, his body was numbed by alcohol and beca extrely sluggish. Before his hand could reach for the Treasured Sword hanging beside the bed, your Tusks, swirling with sharp Mastery, had already slashed at Farkas’s hand which was ready to draw the sword.
"Clang!"
In a critical mont, Farkas suddenly managed to block the Tusks with his left arm, and a flash of golden light appeared. Farkas’s left arm now bore a Round Golden Shield.
But Farkas’s lower body was unsteady due to the alcohol, causing him to be sent flying by your slash.
"Thud!" Farkas slamd heavily against the edge of the tent, while shouts from soldiers can be heard from outside.
"Damn it, this needs to end quickly!"
You roared loudly, your figure bursting into flas, and the towering inferno imdiately engulfed the entire tent. With a stomp of your foot, about a dozen Earth Spurs erupted from the ground, blocking Farkas’s escape routes on three sides. You also charged towards Farkas rapidly.
For a mont, the sound of clashing was incessant. Although Farkas was a Holy Knight, his energy had been greatly drained by alcohol over the past three days, and he also felt an intense pain in his abdon. It felt as if a giant Carrion Worm was devouring his flesh inside his belly.
"Ah!"
Your attack was exceedingly fierce. Unwary, Farkas felt your Tusks ruthlessly pierce his right thigh.
"Explode!"
You didn’t pull out the Tusks. Instead, you channeled the Fire Elental Energy from within you through the Tusks into Farkas’s right thigh. Accompanied by your furious shout, Farkas’s right thigh was instantly blasted by the rampant Fire Elental Energy, causing blood and flesh to splatter.
Farkas let out a fierce roar, disregarding his severe injury, and attempted to retreat. However, suddenly he felt an unprecedented strong pressure!
This imnsely powerful force rendered him unable to move, and he could only watch as your Tusks chopped towards him.
In that mont, many images flashed through Farkas’s mind: his father, mother, and his comrades in battle, but most prevalent was his beloved, Lei Nuoyi.
The next second, Farkas felt the whole world spinning around, and also felt incredibly light, as if his body and spirit had suddenly relaxed. In the midst of spinning, he saw you stabbing the long knife into his heart, and once again blowing up his body with Fire Elental Energy.
"This annoying guy, really determined to completely eradicate ..."
These were Farkas’s last thoughts in this world.
