Chapter 68: The Undead Assassin

  The battle between Scarface and Lin Wu, although Lin Wu used several skills, they were all in an instant. Scarface was also caught off guard by Lin Wu, who seized the opportunity to launch a series of consecutive attacks, killing him instantly. The black-clad men stared blankly at their own heads, which had been taken down by Lin Wu's exquisite martial arts, and for a moment, they were all at a loss.

  "Next, it's your turn." Lin Wu, covered in blood, coldly stared at the remaining black-clothed men and said.

  Lin Wu's voice made the remaining black-clad men shiver in unison, "Sir, we will leave immediately, please spare our lives." Seeing that the situation was already lost, one of the black-clad men suddenly begged for mercy.

  Lin Wu gazed coldly at this sly-looking guy, "Want to leave? If you tell me who's behind the scenes, I might consider it."

  "That... " The black-clothed man with a sly and cunning look in his eyes suddenly trembled all over when he heard Lin Wu's words.

  "Dead?" Lin Wu was taken aback.

  "Despicable guy, let's fight him together." Seeing the death of that sinister-looking black-clad man, the remaining black-clad men suddenly panicked and desperately rushed towards Lin Wu.

  But how could these people be Lin Wu's opponents?

  "Halt! If you dare move your hand, she'll be dead!" A sudden angry shout rang out.

  Suddenly, Lin Wu saw a black-clad man holding a dagger to Elena's neck. "Don't be rash, just let her go and I'll let you leave." Seeing this, Lin Wu secretly cursed himself for being careless. If anything happened to Elena, how would he explain it? Thinking of this, Lin Wu's heart was filled with a crazy desire to kill.

  "Don't come any closer, put down your weapon." The black-clad man who had taken Elena hostage felt the murderous intent emanating from Lin Wu's body and shouted in terror.

  "You just open her up, and all the requirements are up to you." Suppressing the murderous intent in his heart, Lin Wu inserted his long sword into the ground and said.

  "Alright, give us the money and we'll release her immediately." The black-clad man holding Elena hostage suddenly said with a greedy face.

  "No problem, whatever you want is fine." Lin Wu said calmly.

  "Hurry up and get it out, otherwise if this beautiful girl dies, it would be a pity." The man in black gazed at Elena's stunning face, secretly swallowing his saliva.

  "Holy Light!" Just as the black-robed man looked towards Eirina, a pure white light suddenly emanated from her body. This was a 2nd-level Light System magic, a rather useless spell that aside from illuminating and dealing damage to undead creatures, had almost no practical use.

  However, when Irina released the Holy Light this time, the black-clothed man's eyes were greedily staring at her, and he was suddenly stabbed by the light, causing his eyes to be momentarily blinded.

  The next moment, the man in black felt a chill on his neck, and then lost consciousness.

  "Irina, are you okay?" Lin Wu hugged Irina tightly and anxiously. In the moment when the black-clothed man was blinded, Lin Wu exerted his full strength to unleash Triple Slash, directly killing the black-clothed man in an instant.

  "It's nothing, I'm a high-level magician, not some weak woman." Elina said with a smile.

  "It's all right." Lin Wu let out a long sigh.

  Then, Lin Wu coldly swept his gaze over the remaining black-clothed men and said in a chilly voice, "So, have you all made preparations for your deaths?"

  "Ah! Ah!!"

  As soon as Lin Wu's voice fell, those black-clothed men cried out in unison and fell to the ground. This made Lin Wu pause for a moment, "When did I become able to kill people with just a few words?"

  Just as Lin Wu was perplexed, those black-clad men who had originally died suddenly slowly stood up.

  "Ghost!!"

  Lin Wu and Elena exchanged a glance, their expressions extremely solemn.

  Lin Wu also roughly knew who the mastermind was this time, Posei, that practitioner of the undead arts, and only he had a grudge against him.

  "Hmph, evil creature." Seeing the undead, Elena stepped forward and blocked Lin Wu behind her, shouting in a delicate voice.

  Then, Elena waved her staff and a holy light enveloped one of the undead. The moment it touched the holy light, it melted away like tallow in a fire.

  Guangming Fashi, although he didn't have much attacking power, was a super killer against the undead. Before long, those undead were all solved by Ailina.

  "Xiao Wu, don't worry, I won't hold you back." Elina exclaimed after resolving those undead.

  Looking at Irina's excited look, Lin Wu smiled slightly, and suddenly Lin Wu felt a heart palpitation, subconsciously rolling on the ground, and the next moment a cold light flashed by where Lin Wu was.

  "Assassin!!"

  Lin Wu was shocked, quickly came to Elena's side and tightly protected her. For a magician, encountering an assassin is like meeting the undead with light magic. Assassins are absolutely the nemesis of magicians, especially those who are not very powerful.

  "Holy Light!" Elina waved her staff behind Lin Wu, and a holy light enveloped a nearby area.

  "It's a vengeful spirit again." Lin Wu and Ailina did not expect that the Holy Light spell would actually reveal the assassin's shadow, originally the Holy Light spell was fundamentally unable to make hidden assassins appear, but this assassin turned out to be a vengeful spirit as well. Vengeful spirits naturally couldn't withstand holy light.

  "Huh?" Lin Wu looked at this assassin and felt a sense of familiarity.

  "Isn't that the assassin who infiltrated the Rose family last time?" Lin Wu suddenly remembered the assassin's origin, and his heart became tense. The opponent was an assassin of the Great Swordsman level, and he didn't know how he had become a vengeful spirit. Although his strength might not be comparable to when he was alive, a vengeful spirit who didn't fear death or pain was also very troublesome.

  "Xiao Wu, the necromancer controlling these undead, must be nearby. We have to take out the necromancer or else the undead creatures will keep coming in droves." Elena said to Lin Wu.

  He nodded slightly, but Lin Wu knew that the 90% of the soul controller was Poseidon, even if it wasn't Poseidon himself, it must be related to him, and this point Lin Wu was very certain.

  "Irina, I'll get him tangled up, you just blast him with your light magic." said Lin Wu Dao.

  "Mmm, be careful." Elena nodded.

  Against undead creatures, only light magic is most effective and can completely eliminate them.

  He nodded, and Lin Wu rushed over, entwining the undead assassin. With Lin Wu's strength, it wasn't difficult at all. After all, the undead didn't have wisdom, and they could only rely on the controller's control. Moreover, this assassin's strength hadn't even reached the level of a great swordsman. Lin Wu estimated that it was because Posei's strength was insufficient, and he couldn't transform this great swordsman-level assassin into the same level as when he was alive.

  Eirina, on the other hand, used Holy Light without any restraint, and didn't have to worry about accidentally hitting anyone else. When Holy Light landed on Lin Wu, it had no effect whatsoever, but when it landed on the undead assassins, they would let out a burst of cyan smoke, and their strength would greatly decline.

  Before long, the undead assassin's movements seemed to slow down, and gradually this undead assassin moved slower and slower. Just as it was about to be killed, Elena suddenly shouted from behind, "Xiao Wu, run!!"
