No, the high-level Phantom Killer must stay on Harrington Friedman to ensure a one-shot kill.
Raven quickly weighed the pros and cons. It didn't matter whether Gad died or not, but Harrington had to die today, otherwise he would face endless retaliation.
On the contrary, if Harrington died and Gad survived, he would be in a state of panic like a stray dog without his protection. Without the ability to cast spells and knowledge of spells, he would not be able to completely destroy Harrington's crimes, and his identity as an accomplice of the demon communication and Raven would be reversed.
But Raven had no intention of keeping Gad and letting the coppersmith escape the law.
Thinking of this, Raven took out the scroll of advanced invisibility and tore it open decisively, leaving only a few words with a sneer in the air.
"Hehe, there's no need to get entangled with a small fry like you. You're not my target."
Gad's pupils suddenly shrank, and he turned to look at Councilman Harrington who was still drunk on the second floor.
Oops!
Thinking of what would happen to him if Congressman Harrington died, Ged's hands and feet suddenly turned cold. He panicked for a moment and ran up the stairs to try to protect Congressman Harrington.
"Die! Harrington Friedman! The traitor will be punished today!" Just as Ged arrived next to Harrington, a somewhat crazy announcement came from the air above Harrington.
It's that invisible guy! We must stop him! Ged immediately drew out his sword and swung it at the air above Senator Harrington, but it missed.
No! It's a trap! Gede's pupils shrank suddenly, and his sanity, which had been lost in panic, quickly returned.
That guy is just making a feint to the east and attacking in the west. His real target...
"It's you, Sir Knight Gedehara."
A long sword pierced Gede's throat from behind.
Raven has used [Mythic Trick (Nether)] to get behind Gad.
"Ugh..." Gad's throat was pierced and he couldn't even scream. He could only watch Raven draw out his sword, splashing blood and spitting out blood foam from his mouth.
The look in Gad's eyes when he looked at Raven at the last moment was very complicated, full of shock, unwillingness, regret and remorse.
"Please die. The new era of Weimar does not need you remnants of the old era." If you want to pretend, you have to pretend to the end. The most important way to deceive others is to deceive yourself. Raven simply gave his assassin identity a personality that hated the old aristocracy.
"Then, that leaves you, Senator Harrington, the Empire's lackey." Raven wiped the blood off his sword with Gad's clothes and walked towards the still drunk Harrington Friedman.
"You... who are you! Who sent you! I... I can pay you double!" The blood splashing on his face seemed to make Harrington Friedman sober up a little, but under the influence of alcohol, as a mid-level magician, he now found it difficult to concentrate on performing even a trick.
At this moment, he deeply regretted his usual neglect of combat strength and his excessive drinking at the social event tonight.
"I'm sorry, Senator, in case you have some weird magic items that can be activated, I won't hold back." Raven said as he took out the magic scroll of the high-level Phantom Killer.
"You...what are you going to do!?" Harrington's heart sank, and the ring finger of his left hand quietly pressed on the ring on his middle finger.
"Enjoy the hellfire rays from the abyss! Running dog of the empire!" With a swish, the scroll was torn open.
Is it the high-level magic Hellfire Ray?
At this time, Senator Harrington concentrated his last bit of energy and tried his best to activate the protective ring on his hand, releasing the elemental protection - fire. A red shield enveloped Harrington.
However, the bright red rays did not appear in front of Harrington's eyes. Instead, a purple figure holding a sharp blade appeared, which seemed real and illusory.
"You lied to me!!!" Congressman Harrington made a heart-wrenching cry. The purple figure in front of him gradually walked closer, raised the sharp blade in his hand, and slashed at Congressman Harrington's neck.
"No no no no no no no… No!!" Congressman Harrington completely lost his reason and courage to judge whether the figure was real or fake. Instead, he crawled backwards with all his might trying to avoid the attack. But no matter how he moved, the distance between him and the purple figure seemed to be fixed, without any change, and the knife chopped off Congressman Harrington's neck.
Boom!
A dull sound was heard, and Senator Harrington collapsed to the ground with a look of horror on his face. He lost his heartbeat, breathing, and the magical aura on his body.
"Synchronization complete." Raven dubbed himself as he stood next to Senator Harrington's body, then laughed.
As a low-level warrior, he fought against two mid-level warriors and completed the assassination. A great sense of accomplishment surged into Raven's heart.
You know, in this world where high-level warriors will not take action in conventional wars, the middle level is the lowest level that ordinary people can reach. With the help of two high-level invisibility spells and a high-level phantom killer scroll, he actually achieved a record of one against two. It can be said that he is at the level of a citizen legend.
But completing the assassination is just the beginning, there is still a lot of follow-up work to be done.
Thinking of this, Raven looted several daggers from Gad's room, nailed Senator Harrington upside down to the wall, and then arranged Gad in the shape of a big Chinese character and placed it right under Senator Harrington's body.
There is no special meaning, just to interfere with the investigation.
Raven then used his left hand to hold a dagger and carved words on the wall using Gad's blood.
"The lackeys of the empire who colluded with the devil have been punished by heaven. The Amber Twins of the Unfettered Wind will remain."
The name was just made up at random, there is no special reason, it's just because I was a Gemini in my previous life.
After collecting the lost items he had left at the scene, Raven checked to see if there was any finishing touches he had yet to do.
By the way, there is a little girl in the room.
What to do with her?
Raven had a headache.
It's really hard to just leave it like this. She had her memory and part of her consciousness wiped out by Gad, and now she's involved in a murder case that's bound to be quite drastic. What will happen to her?
But overall, I have saved her from suffering, so it's okay to just leave like this. I have done my best. Do I have to take her with me after I have assassinated her and escaped from the scene? That would be too easy to be exposed.
After hesitating for a minute, Raven finally decided to take "Alice" away.
After all, she has seen me. If I fall into the hands of Weimar City, there is a certain probability that she will identify me.
Just kill her... I can't do it myself.
There is no other way. Who can blame me for not being the decisive person to kill?
Raven walked into Gad's room helplessly and saw "Alice" tied to the bed and whimpering.
Raven took off his blood-stained clothes and burned them in the fireplace in Gad's room. He then untied Alice and covered her with the hooded robe that he had intended for himself to wear afterwards.
"Come with me." Raven held Alice's hand, "I'll take you to your new home."
Climbing out of the window, the two people, one big and one small, were lost in the street shrouded in darkness.
…
The First Detachment of the South City District is the absolute elite of the Guard Army in the South City District, and its status is comparable to that of the Fourth East Detachment in the East City District. This is because the First Detachment of the South City District also has a superhuman sheriff and a superhuman deputy sheriff, and is fully staffed.
Sheriff Alson Bader, who had already finished his patrol and gone off duty, was now standing at the entrance to the villa area. A cordon had been set up around the area, prohibiting ordinary citizens from entering or leaving.
"What a brutal criminal..." Alson Bader felt a chill in his heart as he looked at the scene that was set up like a religious ceremony.
"After killing someone, he still had the mind to set the scene... Is this a provocation to our guards?" Alsen's deputy Trevor Novak said indignantly, hammering the wall hard with his fist.
"You worry too much, Trevor." Arsen rolled his eyes at Trevor, "He is provoking the entire city of Weimar..."
"Hello, is this Sheriff Alson Bader?" At this moment, a person who looked like a little girl appeared at the crime scene where outsiders should not be present, but the voice was that of an old man.
"Sir Ona." Arsen and Trevor did not dare to be negligent and bowed respectfully to the visiting high-level wizard, the supreme leader of the Guard Army this year.
"Yes, I am Alson Bader, the chief of police of the first team of the South City District." After paying his respects, Alson quickly answered Ona's question.
"I'm here today because this incident is extremely difficult and has exceeded the limits of what the general guards can handle. You understand." Ona said slowly and calmly.
"We fully understand that no matter the nature of the incident, the difficulty of solving the case, or the degree of danger of the murderer, it is no longer within the scope of our detachment to solve. May I ask if we need to withdraw now?" It would be better to withdraw and get off work early. Alsen Bed thought to himself.
"I'm sorry, but I'd like to trouble you to help isolate the area and prevent ordinary people from entering by mistake. Also, please help with the investigation afterwards." Ona's gentle tone destroyed Arsen's lazy mentality.
"Follow your will." Arsen sighed silently in his heart, and then he and Trevor stood obediently behind to watch how Ona scouted.
…
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" Raven, holding "Alice" with one hand and the other hand, knocked on the door of Vera's Alchemy Workshop.
The door was quickly opened with a "creak" and Vera looked at Raven with confusion on her face.
"It's really strange. You came here even though I didn't do any experiments today... What's wrong with you? Why did you bring someone with you? I won't support you in human trafficking." Vera saw the little blonde girl that Raven was holding, and looked at Raven with subtle eyes, as if accusing Raven of being a pervert.
"What happened today is very complicated. Please let me in first and I will explain it slowly..."
