Bakerland stared coldly at Dophis, guessing which force had sent this assassin.
Dophis said leisurely, "After saying so much, you should understand, right? You are doomed to die today."
Bakerland sneered, "That's hard to say."
Dophis revealed an icy smile: "Do you think the dagger in your male servant's hand is an ordinary dagger?"
Bakerland was shocked and immediately reached out to check his wound. As soon as he moved, he realized that he had become stiff all over, starting from who knows when.
His spirituality immediately made him realize that it was not his physical body that had a problem, but his spirit body that had been damaged.
Looking at the dagger in the male servant's hand again, it was dark and shiny, making it terrifying.
Dophis smiled and said, "You are still quite clever. If you had continued to escape just now, you would only have died faster.
"Oh, right, I also replaced the materials you often burn. The replaced materials not only can't help you establish contact with the object of your prayer, but also accelerate the collapse of your spirit body."
Bakerland was shocked and quickly continued to move towards the door, but his movements were already very stiff at this time, and it took him a long time to take only one step.
"Are you wondering why I'm okay in the same room?" Dophis asked and answered himself: "Because I am an undead, and undead don't need to breathe."
The male servant stepped forward again, and in Bakerland's unwilling gaze, easily slit the throat of this Intis ambassador.
Bakerland felt the blood spurting from his neck, which was the rapid loss of life.
Dophis stretched out his hand, and the male servant respectfully handed the dagger to Dophis. Then he fell to the ground and became a real corpse.
After confirming that Bakerland was completely dead, Dophis reached out and grabbed Bakerland's spirituality, crushed it, and completely cut off the path for the military attachés to communicate with spirits.
Then Dophis opened the illusory door on his body, grabbed a cloud-like spirit, and then stuffed the spirit in the shape of a rooftop balloon back into the illusory door.
The bottom of the cloud-like spirit was a bloody mouth. Dophis glared at it, and the cloud immediately put away its countless fangs, and then opened its big mouth to devour Dophis.
This cloud can be invisible and can pass through obstacles. Dophis was in its belly, leisurely commanding it to leave the embassy among the patrolling military attachés and busy servants.
...
Two hours later, 15 Minsk Street.
Klein, who had just sent Ian away, had just sat down on the sofa and hadn't had time to review Ian's account of the whole thing when the doorbell rang "ding ding dong dong" again.
Who?
Klein's expression tightened instantly. He put his hands in his pockets, touching the Tarot cards and the "Words of Blasphemy" charm respectively.
Then he looked at the windows and mirrors, but unfortunately he didn't find the shadow of the bodyguard Miss.
But he knew that the bodyguard Miss must be in this room.
Klein slowly walked to the door, using the Clown's ability to foresee the scene he would see after opening the door:
Under the crimson moon, a sheriff in a black and white checkered uniform with three V's on his epaulettes was impatiently waiting at the door. It was Sheriff Fasin, whom Klein had met before.
Klein quickly made a divination to confirm that this was the real Sheriff Fasin, but he immediately thought that the other party was also a "Seer" and should be able to interfere with his divination.
At this time, the doorbell rang again, and Klein had no choice but to pull the door open vigilantly.
Sheriff Fasin outside said with a serious face: "The people above sent me to tell you to pay attention to safety tonight and tomorrow and be careful of strangers."
"Okay." Klein nodded solemnly.
Sheriff Fasin touched his short hair and said, "There are also some arrangements, I will explain them to you in detail, and you make your own decision."
Klein invited Sheriff Fasin into the room and closed the door smoothly.
As the solid wooden door closed, Minsk Street under the crimson moon returned to a peaceful scene.
But two or three minutes later, there seemed to be a quarrel inside the wooden door of 15 Minsk Street, but soon all the discordant sounds disappeared.
More than ten minutes later, Sheriff Fasin opened the door with some stiff movements.
He avoided the light of the street lamps and quickly walked towards the Tussok River. If any unlucky person saw his face clearly, he would be scared out of his wits.
...
Saturday morning, Blanca Street.
When eating breakfast, Hobert always looked out the window at the street outside. Just as breakfast was coming to an end, he finally heard the voice of the newsboy: "Extra! Extra! Intis Ambassador to Loen, Bakerland, died in a fight with his male servant in the backyard last night!"
Xio and Fors looked at Hobert with surprise in their eyes, and Hobert had already gotten up: "Bring me a newspaper!"
After buying the newspaper, the three of them couldn't care about eating and squeezed together to read the contents of the newspaper.
Unfortunately, there were few details about Bakerland's death. The reporter wrote: "...The military attachés have closed the embassy. Surprisingly, the ambassador's assistant, Mr. Rosago, has not appeared either. The entire embassy looks like a mess.
The writer learned from the servants that Ambassador Bakerland often treated the servants rudely and barbarously, especially his male servant. It is reported that this is likely the cause of the conflict between the master and servant..."
The three people who knew that Bakerland was an Beyonder being knew that the content of the newspaper was nonsense.
Xio said incredulously: "Bakerland is dead!"
Fors asked in a low voice: "Did we succeed?"
"It should be." Hobert put down the newspaper: "Even if an ordinary person launches a sneak attack, it is impossible to kill an Beyonder of Sequence 6."
He was sure that it must be Dophis's work, and it was done very cleanly, leaving no traces at the scene. Even the people at the Intis Embassy didn't know which direction to investigate.
This was in line with Dophis's low-key personality. Only lunatics like the Aurora Order would make the matter of killing Bakerland known to everyone.
Hobert could almost imagine that Dophis must have acted after having full confidence, and all his actions must be calm and unhurried.
When he took action, Rosago was not at the embassy. Bakerland was not Dophis's opponent at all. A Sequence 5 had many ways to kill a Sequence 6 silently.
Especially this kind of assassination, Bakerland was caught off guard, and may not even have had the opportunity to use his mystical items.
Hobert also thought: Since Rosago has not appeared, it seems that the Sequence 5 gift package has been delivered to Klein's hands.
At this time, Miss Audrey's maid came to deliver a letter again. Opening the envelope, it was a check for 10,000 pounds.
Xio and Fors swallowed their saliva shamelessly after seeing the check.
Hobert put away the check: "I'm not going to work today. I'm going to deliver the reward."
Xio and Fors also wanted to go together to admire the strong man who killed Bakerland, but they also knew that it was impossible.
After finishing the remaining breakfast, Hobert took a taxi carriage to the suburbs.
Yesterday, Jacob had already sent someone to send a letter to Hobert, and today the final excavation of the ruins will be carried out. Of course, Hobert, who wants to get a share of the pie, must be present.
At around ten o'clock, Hobert arrived at the camp and was directly led to the ruins by the person waiting at the entrance of the camp.
Coming to the noble courtyard in the ruins again, the entrance to the huge underground structure was already surrounded by people. They were chatting while smoking cigarettes or pipes, and the overall atmosphere was relatively cheerful.
Mr. Dophis was out of place among them. He was unwilling to chat with others, and others did not dare to chat with him.
After Hobert arrived, Dophis whispered: "There is a sealed artifact of the 'Death' pathway with a very high level sealed underground."
