Chapter 1380: Chapter 1380: Backstabbing
From the Divine Dragon Tripod explosion, to Isabella Warm’s sword strike!
Between the two, there was no interval!
In the mont that the golden-skinned man turned around, the sword in Isabella Warm’s hand had already been thrust out!
The sword was dark and extrely agile!
The defenses around Alliance Hierarch Pendleton were extrely strict, and one needed to be searched before being granted an audience!
Yet, nurous won had searched Isabella Warm’s body for a long ti without finding this weapon!
Whoosh!
The sword, like a black viper!
A streak of light exploded in the air, aiming directly for Alliance Hierarch Pendleton’s throat!
“Stop!”
As the golden-skinned man fell to the ground, another golden-skinned man sprang into action!
He stood like a barrier, blocking in front of Alliance Hierarch Pendleton!
Clang!
The tip of the sword struck the man’s throat but was like stabbing into a wall of copper and iron!
It couldn’t advance even slightly!
“Break!”
Isabella Warm’s eyes were cold as she slightly twisted her hand, and the Longsword miraculously transford into a needle!
Puchi!
Finally!
The sharp needle tip directly penetrated the golden-skinned man’s throat!
Without a mont’s hesitation, Isabella Warm withdrew her sword!
The black needle point, once again, transford into a dark, slender sword!
The whole set of actions flowed smoothly, but the golden-skinned man, giving his life, still managed to buy a bit of ti!
Among experts, even the slightest advantage is contested!
The two golden-skinned n at the doorway had already taken big steps forward!
Isabella Warm dashed towards her front, but her foot…
Was unexpectedly caught by the golden-skinned man injured by the explosion, using his last ounce of strength to tightly grip Isabella Warm’s ankle!
Puchi!
A sword stroke passed!
The man’s wrist was severed.
One ter!
Isabella Warm was only one ter away from Alliance Hierarch Pendleton!
She struck with her sword again!
At the sa ti, there was chaos behind her!
Bang!
A loud noise, and the ‘Mountain’ and ‘River’ rushing in from the door were unexpectedly repelled several steps backwards!
Seeing it was too late to block, the life of Alliance Hierarch Pendleton hung by a thread!
“Pendleton should not exist in the first place!”
Isabella Warm’s Longsword, like a serpent, aid directly for the Hierarch’s throat!
Clang!
A flash of firelight swept past!
A spear appeared out of nowhere, deflecting the black sword!
Andrew, ard with just a spear, stood in front of the Hierarch.
“Are you playing ?” Isabella Warm sneered coldly.
“Protecting the Alliance Hierarch is my duty!” Andrew, with a stern face, said in an unpleasant tone: “Leander, as the Vein Holder of the Bead Pulse, you were supposed to obey the Alliance Hierarch!”
“But for hundreds of years! You have hard your colleagues and attempted to expand your own power, threatening Pendleton! By the law, you deserve to be executed!”
Andrew, who had been speaking through ventriloquism earlier, snorted coldly: “Hand over the Divine Dragon Tripod!”
His words had barely finished when ‘Mountain’ and ‘River’ had already blocked the entrance.
No way forward, no way back!
“Leander, why do you wish to kill the Alliance Hierarch?” The fat man had shown not a hint of fear since the beginning.
It seed like everything was under his control!
“To kill the four golden-skinned protectors by your side, you went to great lengths to seize the Night’s precious ‘Wandering Snake Sword’!” he said with his hands behind his back, as if interrogating a criminal: “Tell ! How did you know that the ‘Wandering Snake’ could break through the protectors’ golden bodies?”
The golden-skinned protectors, the most reliable guards beside Alliance Hierarch Pendleton.
These individuals had been trained from a young age, going through the secret techniques handed down by generations in Pendleton!
Strong ones, who can even be immune to blades and spears!
But as long as soone is human, they have weaknesses!
The ‘Wandering Dragon’ in Isabella Warm’s hand, originally the weapon of the Night’s Vein Holder, represented the Night!
But many years ago, it mysteriously disappeared!
From Kyler Reed to Gabriel Abernathy, no one in Night had truly touched this hidden weapon!
The world’s sharpest, most enigmatic weapon!
‘Wandering Dragon’ is not a sword, yet it is.
It is not a needle, yet it is one!
It can transform into many weapons!
Among them, its black glint can break through the golden body of protectors when it turns into a needle!
This is a secret!
A top secret of Pendleton!
In the early days of Pendleton’s establishnt, each Vein Holder and the first Alliance Hierarch forged eight weapons together!
Officially, these eight weapons counterbalanced one another, yet gathered together, they contained an earth-shattering secret!
But due to their mutual restraint, no one could steal the Divine Weapon belonging to any Vein Holder.
Until Isabella Warm took away Night’s ‘Wandering Dragon’!
Pendleton investigated in secret but never found a clue!
“Since the theft of Wandering Dragon, I pretended to be mad and foolish, ignoring world affairs and indulging in wine and pleasures!” The Alliance Hierarch of Pendleton seed certain Isabella Warm couldn’t escape and thus leisurely began to speak: “Did you really think I was useless?”
“Indeed!” Isabella Warm’s lips curved slightly, seemingly unsurprised: “Such petty tricks can’t deceive .”
“Oh? You do have quite the tough mouth.” The plump Alliance Hierarch shook his head with a smile and looked at Isabella Warm with pity in his eyes: “Since the theft of ‘Wandering Dragon,’ I knew soone was after ! But I never would have guessed it was you!”
He pointed at Andrew: “I have read the letter brought by people from The North Sea. Although I had my suspicions at that ti, I still didn’t think it was you. Until the Divine Dragon Tripod! You wanted to present the tripod as a gift to assassinate !”
“Correct, smarter than I thought.” Surrounded on all sides, Isabella Warm was not fearful or panicked, her gaze remained incredibly calm.
“Tell , why assassinate ! Could it be, you wish to be the Hierarch of Pendleton?” The plump man sighed, appearing slightly disappointed: “What a pity! If you’d encountered anyone but , you might have succeeded. But, the mind of this Hierarch is beyond your imagination!”
In the midst of speaking, the Alliance Hierarch of Pendleton displayed an arrogant deanor!
His contempt and disdain were evident in his words!
At the sa ti, he was boasting about his own stratagems.
“Hand over the Divine Dragon Tripod, and I’ll make it quick for you.” The leader turned around, his gaze cold: “Besides, why do you want to kill ?”
“Does killing you need a reason?”
Isabella Warm, holding ‘Wandering Dragon,’ suddenly lunged forward!
Clang!
The spear was like a dragon, repelling the black sword!
At the sa ti!
Boom!
A cannonball, unexpectedly passing through the window, landed directly inside the room!
Isabella Warm flipped backward, her sword in hand like a black snake, after flicking away two golden body protectors, she leaped vigorously onto the rooftop!
“Protect the Hierarch!” As soon as Andrew saw the cannonball, he fiercely knocked the Pendleton Hierarch to the ground!
The two protectors quickly ford a human wall to shield the Hierarch.
Bomb blast resounds!
The mouths of the two golden body protectors leaked blood, but their combat strength remained undiminished!
Seizing this gap, Isabella Warm leaped out!
“Chase them!”
The Pendleton Hierarch bellowed in disarray: “I want her alive or her body if dead!”
With a leap!
The two golden body protectors dashed out of the door, their eyes filled with anger!
“Be alert on the periter, Leander has accomplices!” Andrew stood up, issuing commands to the Pendleton guards rushing into the room!
“Understood!”
The guards grasped their weapons and hastened toward the periter.
“So close, yet so far!”
Bang!
The Hierarch punched the ground, his eyes brimming with frustration!
In Swimming City!
To think soone could make it through the Golden Boulevard and fire a cannon at one’s own chamber!
“Andrew, go fetch a chair for !” The plump man struggled to his feet, his clothes torn and covered in dust.
But Andrew did not move.
“Can’t you hear ?” The Pendleton Hierarch was full of anger with no place to vent.
He looked at the two golden body protector corpses on the ground and furiously punched the wall!
“What are you waiting for? Go get—”
Before he could finish speaking.
A long spear had already pierced through his throat.
