This teasing voice was lazy and low, giving a sense of mockery that sounded very uncomfortable.
Hearing this voice, Lu Yu frowned. He slowly turned around and looked in the direction of the sound, seeing a man dressed in a white western cloak erging slowly from the crowd.
This man had a tall stature and a gentle deanor, with a slight smile on his face. Combined with his white cloak, it gave off a feeling of approachability.
However, besides these traits, there was a cross-like Western longsword hanging at his waist.
The Western longsword, along with its sheath, was entirely black, making it look like a large black cross from a distance, exceptionally conspicuous.
"Christian?"
Seeing the man in front of him, Lu Yu coldly said, his words filled with icy amusent: "Despicable and cunning villain, I really didn't expect the Dark Sanctuary to send you!"
There was a mocking tone in Lu Yu's deep voice.
The man in front, nad Christian, was one of the Twelve Black Knights of the Dark Sanctuary, and the most cunning among them. The series of traps earlier perfectly matched his style.
"I really didn't expect Lord Lu Yu would rember my na!"
Hearing Lu Yu's words, Christian didn't get angry. A slight cold smile appeared on his face, and he spoke calmly: "I'm only here following orders from the Sanctuary, to take your life, Lord. It's quite normal to be caught off guard."
Despite his low voice, Christian still sounded very polite.
"To take my life?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yu sneered and said, "Just you and these people with you?"
In his deep voice, Lu Yu showed no regard for Christian, the most treacherous of the Dark Sanctuary's Twelve Black Knights, considering he had already prepared a counterasure!
"Oh?"
Upon hearing Lu Yu's words, Christian gave a slight questioning utterance, then continued, "For Lord Lu Yu to speak like this, it seems you have great confidence in your own strength!"
With a faint smile, Christian said, "But to , it seems like you might be dead here today before even getting the chance to fight !"
Christian's words carried a trace of coldness.
"Are you referring to these ragtag people around?"
Hearing this, Lu Yu's gaze swept over the thirty Dark Sanctuary mbers ard with weapons, speaking coldly, his words filled with gravity.
"Not just them!"
Upon hearing Lu Yu's words, Christian chuckled and shook his head, then spoke: "Since you call a despicable villain, Lord Lu Yu, of course, I have other tricks prepared."
Christian said with a murderous tone in his smiling voice: "As for what exactly those tricks are, I can't completely reveal them to you, Lord!"
Christian's voice was playful, as if playing a ga.
Hearing Christian's words, Lu Yu's mind raced, just about to say sothing.
However, at this mont, Marcus's voice suddenly ca through Lu Yu's earpiece.
"Lord, we're in position, twenty snipers are ready. Just give the nod, and we will eliminate everyone on the scene instantly!"
Marcus's voice was steady with a calm undertone.
Christian might have his tricks, but Lu Yu also had his arrangents.
The earpiece Lu Yu was wearing could both receive and transmit information.
It also helped Marcos locate Lu Yu's position, enabling him to provide the most tily support.
From Marcus's ssage, Lu Yu knew that Marcus was monitoring his actions, ready to eliminate the thirty Dark Sanctuary mbers if he gave a nod.
Yet Lu Yu did not nod.
He knew that, as Christian said, being the most cunning of the Dark Sanctuary's Black Knights, Christian must have other unseen tricks nearby!
Taking out the thirty mbers was easy, but the real trouble lay in Christian's other tricks!
Thinking of this, a slight smile appeared on Lu Yu's face, as he shook his head and then spoke loudly: "Christian, you are truly despicable, setting up tricks here. It seems you've prepared a lot before coming!"
His voice was clear and crisp, hinting to Marcus that Christian had other tricks.
"Tricks?!"
On hearing Lu Yu's words, Marcus, lurking not far off on the winding road, was startled and told the snipers with M200 rifles around him: "Don't act rashly, there's more than just thirty of them!"
This statent prompted all the snipers to halt their actions.
Without removing Christian's tricks, any rash action was extrely foolish and dangerous.
"Now use thermal imaging to scan everything within a kiloter radius, looking for all signal sources or creatures. Find Christian's tricks and ensure the Lord's safety!"
Marcus urgently commanded, his tone filled with anxiety.
Lu Yu had Marcos bring various instrunts for unforeseen needs, and they were now serving their purpose!
"Yes!"
Hearing Marcus's orders, mbers of the Assassin Alliance responded in unison.
They promptly began detecting all creatures and instrunts within a kiloter radius, seeking to assure Lu Yu's safety.
"Lord!"
Upon hearing the response from the Assassin Alliance, Marcus spoke up: "We've begun detecting Christian's tricks, but it will take five minutes. Please stall them for five minutes!"
Marcus's voice carried a trace of impatience, reflecting deep concern.
After all, Lu Yu's safety was at stake!
