Chapter 991: Assassinate

Lord City Lord always felt a little uncomfortable in his heart along the way, his heart was beating wildly, as if something bad was about to happen.
Is there anything worse besides being targeted by your own city lord mansion? The Lord City Lord ran to the front quickly while observing the two people beside him.
These two people are adventurers hired by him, and their strength must be nothing to say, at least they are well-known in this area. The one on the left is a magician, who is good at ice magic, and the one on the right is a warrior who uses a long sword and a shield.
They are still very relieved to protect the Lord of the City. But I don't know why, the more he goes forward, the more nervous and uncomfortable, as if something bad is about to come to him.
Lowering his head without showing a trace, the Lord of the City stopped and covered his chest with one hand.
"grown ups?"
The two adventurers also stopped immediately, looked back at him, and called him puzzledly. At least for the time being, they haven't noticed the danger, which means that the neighborhood should be safe, but why did the Lord Lord suddenly stop? They are very puzzled about this.
"First, wait, I'm a little uncomfortable."
The Lord of the City waved his hand and walked to the side, ignoring that the soil on the wall would stain his clothes. He leaned directly on it, slightly curled up, half bent over, panting violently, looking like a state. It's not very good.
The two adventurers looked at each other, and both saw the doubt in each other's eyes. The Lord of the City was in a strange state. How could this be?
"My lord, we'd better not stay here for a long time, otherwise it is likely to be blocked."
Although this is only a possibility, the possibility is still very high and we have to guard against it.
"..."
Lord City Lord did not reply, he lowered his head and seemed to be thinking about something, which made the two adventurers a little anxious. They hope to leave this place as soon as possible. Although this place looks safe and the exit is relatively hidden, it can be seen from what has just happened that it is difficult for them to leave today without incident.
All this is just an inference, but at least judging from what has just been encountered, it is definitely not groundless. Moreover, the abnormal reaction of Lord City Lord made them even more worried.
But they are not only worried about Lord City Lord, this is just one aspect. They also knew the original identity of Lord City Lord, an excellent adventurer, even more famous than they are now, and later retired from the adventurer without knowing what happened.
But even so, in this sense, Lord City Lord is even better than them. Seeing Lord City Lord's reaction like this means that his situation is likely to be a dangerous indicator.
They are also lamenting in their hearts, but just doing so has no effect. Instead of staying here all the time, it's better to leave here quickly, which is better.
"My Lord City Lord!"
Finally, the adventurer who was a warrior couldn't bear it, and reminded the lord of the city loudly, very solemnly in words, this was to remind him that it was really too late if he didn't leave.
They wanted to leave this place as soon as possible, instead of hiding in this place. The longer they stay here, the more dangerous they become.
"No, no, there must be someone waiting for us over there. Can't go there anymore."
Shaking his head, Lord City Lord was also thinking about something in his mind. He was thinking about where this dangerous premonition came from. Although there are usually many enemies of oneself, how many people can really know the information that they are going to secretly leave the City Lord's Mansion tonight?
I also made a temporary motive, not planned long ago, and no one else was there. If you follow this idea, it seems that only one person is possible.
"John Bowana, he seems to be the most suspicious."
Lord City Lord's eyes have changed a little, that person is the most likely, he can't think of anyone other than him. Even if his actions are not particularly secretive, it is not so easy to be discovered. Thinking about it this way, he is the only suspicious person.
But he shouldn’t be wrong about what he can think of. Although he looks like the kind of muscular and simple-minded person, he can’t look like a person, and the sea is incomparable. He has fought against each other so many times, he is also right. John has some understanding, he is much smarter than he looks.
"So, is he not afraid that I know this thing..."
This is the only explanation that can be thought of, which can explain why he is so unscrupulous.
"Not afraid I know..."
Shaking his head, he straightened up. Although his heart was still aching, his heart was beating violently, but he was not ready to continue to stay, just like the adventurer who protected himself said, continue to stay and It will not be safe.
"Let's go, but not from here."
The Lord of the City, looking at the end of the passage, there are a lot of torches on the walls on both sides, and the passage is brightly illuminated. However, at the end of the passage, he didn't know what was outside the organ, so he made a decision. Since there is danger there, he will not go there.
The two adventurers were taken aback, and did not understand the thoughts of Lord City Lord.
"But if you don't leave here..."
They looked back, and the way back was blocked by a stone. Although it didn't take much time to move it away, wouldn't everything they did in that case be meaningless?
"No, not going back."
The Lord Mayor might have some concerns, so he didn't explain too much, just said that.
"You come with me."
With that said, he walked forward quickly, making the two adventurers even more strange, not knowing what he was thinking. But since Lord City Lord said so, they quickly followed up.
The Lord of the City did not go very far, so he stopped in front of a wall, and then pressed his finger on a protruding stone on the right side of the wall, only to hear a heavy sound, and then the wall in front of the Lord of the City slowly moved towards Moving beside, a secret road appeared in front of the three people.
"!"
Both adventurers showed surprised expressions. You must know that they have been hired for so long and have been to this passage several times, but they have never known that there is a secret road here.
"Come in quickly."
The lord of the city reminded the two people. He walked in first. Seeing the two people coming in, he pulled the tab on the right side of the passage again. Then, with a heavy sound, the "stone door" closed again. It's hard to tell that there is a secret path leading inside.
"Go faster, take advantage of the fact that you haven't been spotted yet, and if you slow down, you might even be spotted here."
