Chapter 564 The Day You and the Stars Disappeared 30
The video continues.
Captain Dong Yuan: "The assassination should not be underestimated. The wisest plan now is to return immediately and not stay in the Lantern Market, lest they have a chance to take advantage of you."
Stargazing: "I can't ignore the safety of the people on the street and hide away to protect myself. "
Honkai Impact 3rd Alicia: "Mr. Stargazer is truly a good king who loves his people!"
Dr. Honkai Sanmei: "Yes, she could have returned to the palace immediately to put herself in a safe situation, but she couldn't let go of her people. She is worthy of being a descendant of our Kaslana family!"
Star Dome Railway Na Ke Xia: "I just don't know how the captain will break the deadlock in this situation?"
The video continues.
Captain Dong Yuan's tone was a little anxious at this time: "I know, Mr. Guanxing, you can't let go of those citizens. But...don't you know? You are in danger now. The enemy is in the dark and we are in the light. You can die at any time!"
Guan Xing said seriously: "My life is my life, but the lives of the millions of citizens are not their lives? I know that someone in the street wants to kill me, and I know that the captain has good intentions. But catching the people selling lanterns and protecting the safety of Huangyue City is my responsibility as the king of my country, and also my responsibility as the newly appointed Sage King."
"How can I feel at ease when my people are in dire straits? I understand the captain's intention, but please understand that this is what I must do. Besides, you are still by my side... I remember when we were fighting against the evil spirits, you told me that no matter how difficult the road ahead was, I would always be by your side..."
"Then please fulfill your promise today, Captain."
Mr. Stargazer extended his hand to me. After hesitating for a long time, I finally shook it.
Space Wanderer Gao Xuan: "The person you want to protect is not the person I want to protect. The person I want to protect is you. Why does this plot look so familiar? Don't you think so, Otto?"
Honkai Impact 3rd Otto: "Hahahahaha, this does look familiar. It's simply a replica of my and Kallen's story."
Honkai Impact 500rd Kallen: "This fate is so similar! We were 500 years ago, and they are years later."
Genshin Impact Navilette: "I think this gray snake is sure that Stargazing will not abandon its citizens, so he dared to make such a vicious plan."
The video continues.
Captain Dong Yuan said firmly: "...I will never leave you alone again, so this time...I will do my best to protect you."
Stargazing: "Then let's go and meet the guy selling lanterns."
The two of us looked for the craftsman along the way, and after asking many passers-by, we finally found the direction. Mr. Stargazing and I ran up the stairs.
Captain Dong Yuan: "According to the clues provided by those vendors, the craftsman seems to be in a hurry to do something..."
Stargazing: "...There seems to be a sound over there!"
Captain Dong Yuan: "Over there..."
Turning the corner, we saw the craftsman selling lanterns. He had his back to us, half-kneeling on the ground, holding a sharp blade ready to strike the man on the ground. The man lying on the ground seemed to be powerless to resist and was about to die.
Guanxing then shouted, "Stop it!"
Mr. Stargazer raised his hand and threw the fan, hitting the man's back of the head; the craftsman dodged and stood up calmly. I suddenly realized that the dying man lying on the ground was the shadow guard that Mr. Stargazer had sent to deliver a message to Rita.
Gray Snake laughed at this time and said: "This time, everyone is here."
Honkai Sanfu Xiaozhi: "Ah! A dignified Shadow Guard can fight ten of them at once. The Gray Snake can't even withstand a single punch from me!"
Genshin Impact Diluk: "After all, there are differences between people. To be able to become a cadre of the World Serpent, the Gray Snake must have a certain level of strength, and it is not something that a shadow guard can defeat."
Mingchao Drifter: "Having said that, I still want to say that this Shadow Guard is too weak!"
The video continues.
After a few moves, Mr. Stargazer pushed the craftsman to a dead end. At this point, he had no way to retreat, so he leaned against the wall and laughed sinisterly. With a cracking sound, the human skin mask was torn, revealing the craftsman's strange mask.
Stargazing: "Who are you?"
Gray Snake: "I am just a nobody."
Guan Xing's expression has become increasingly gloomy: "What do you want to do, assassinating the Shadow Guard and selling lanterns containing explosives?"
Gray Snake: "If I had allowed this shadow guard to tip off the enemy, I would be the one lying on the ground right now."
The craftsman took out a lantern, and I knew he was going to throw it out to divert our attention.
Captain Dong Yuan immediately shouted: "Mr. Guanxing, stop him!"
I picked up a stick and blocked the lantern. At the same time, Guanxing flew forward and knocked the dagger out of the craftsman's hand, blocking his way. Although the craftsman was at a disadvantage, he did not panic.
Stargazing: "I advise you to give up struggling and surrender."
Mr. Stargazer made a gesture, and the shadow guard who had been following us emerged from the darkness and stood behind us.
Stargazing: "Given the current situation, you are outnumbered three at once, so you have no chance of winning."
"Not necessarily."
Suddenly, a voice sounded from behind. I subconsciously felt something was wrong and stood behind Guanxing. There was a sound of a sharp blade piercing flesh. Blood flowed out, but I could hardly feel the pain. All my attention was focused on the dagger.
I remember this dagger... This dagger is exactly the same as the one used to kill Guanxing before!!
Guan Xing turned around at this time, his expression showing undisguised anger, and said: "Betraying Huang Country, you know this is a capital crime!"
At this time, the shadow guard who was stabbing from behind said nonchalantly: "So what?"
The shadow guard took off his mask, revealing a strange black mask underneath, exactly the same as the one used by the craftsman.
Honkai Impact 3rd Kiana: "Oh my god, Miss Changli really got one thing right. The shadow guard following my second aunt and the captain is actually Gray Snake's clone in disguise!"
Bronya of Star Dome Railway: "That means that from the very beginning, Stargazer has been under the surveillance of Gray Snake. Who would have thought that the shadow guard who was protecting him was actually Gray Snake's clone in disguise."
Juequ Lingxing Jianya: "Since Gray Snake's clones can pretend to be Shadow Guards, how many Gray Snake's clones have infiltrated the palace?"
The video continues.
At this moment, Mr. Stargazer and I were attacked from both sides. The lantern seller was still manageable, but this masked shadow guard was probably very skilled...
Stargazing: "Captain...are you okay?"
Captain Dong Yuan: "It's just a minor injury...don't worry."
Hearing the captain's words, Guanxing temporarily put his mind at ease and said, "Then I'll leave the back to you, Mr. Assassin."
Then the two sides began to fight, and not long after, all the traps set by the craftsman were destroyed. When the dust settled, the craftsman was hit by Guanxing's full force, and after a muffled groan, he lay on the ground without a breath.
Only the shadow guard's moves were strange and extremely difficult to deal with. Even if Mr. Guanxing and I joined forces to attack, we couldn't decide the winner for a while. The pain in the area where I was stabbed by the shadow guard just now intensified, and I gradually became powerless, and cold sweat rolled down my forehead.
Stargazer said to Shadow Guard Gray Snake: "It seems that your companions can no longer help you."
Shadow Guard Gray Snake: "Life is death, and death is life. This is our destined fate."
Mr. Stargazer strode forward, aiming directly at the shadow guard's vital point; the shadow guard obviously had no space to dodge, so he pulled the craftsman's body over and used a move called "Defense Descends" to block the attack.
Guan Xing snorted coldly and said, "Oh, how despicable! You actually used the body of your dead companion as a shield. If the lantern seller knew about this, he would definitely laugh at your shamelessness."
