"Believe me, if killing you can make Fred better, I will kill you ten thousand times." Levi said calmly as he sat aside, eating barbecue.
"That's quite loud. You're a despicable person, you actually use poison." The strong man cursed.
"I didn't learn this from you scumbags," Levi said.
"My dear father in heaven, I, Tieshan, have been an assassin for so many years, but I have never used poison. Although I am an assassin, I am also a knight. I yearn for a fair fight, unlike you who bully the minority with more." Tieshan Cursed.
"You are already an assassin, so stop pretending to be a bitch here. Who among the serious knights will be an assassin? Judging from the breathing method you practice, you should be of excellent quality. Could you be the illegitimate son of a certain earl?" Levi sarcastically said road.
What he didn't know was that he just said it casually and hit Tieshan's pain point.
"You are the illegitimate child. Your whole family is illegitimate. What's wrong with me being an illegitimate child? I am still the most outstanding genius of the younger generation of the damn Aerion family. Bah."
Levi's expression changed slightly.
The Aerion family is an earl family whose territory is located in the land of Rusty Lake in the north. It is famous for its rich iron ore, and its family emblem is the "Iron Crocodile."
According to legend, the Iron Crocodile was a terrifying behemoth that occupied Rusty Lake in ancient times. It was covered in scales that looked like cast steel.
This is a powerful family because their leader is the "Iron Knight" one of the "Seven Horses of the North". Like Li Wei's father, he is also a great knight.
No wonder this Tieshan is so powerful. He looks like he is only thirty years old. He is already at least a high-level knight and can master such a powerful breathing method.
It can be seen that Tieshan is very dissatisfied with the Aerion family because of his illegitimate status. Li Wei guessed that it is most likely related to power.
After all, an illegitimate child cannot inherit the family title, and Tieshan considers himself the youngest genius in their family, but is ostracized because of this, so he joins the Death Bird Voice and becomes a killer.
However, Li Wei didn't care about any of this. He just wanted Tieshan to reveal the name of his big patron.
But no matter how he tortured him next, the guy screamed in pain and said he didn't know.
Finally, Levi gave up. He now understood that Bernard Knight did not lie.
The only people who know the big patrons behind it are the top brass of their organization.
And this Tieshan himself calls himself the gold medal assassin, which makes him look like he is awesome. He is indeed very strong, but he is still not at the top of the organization.
According to Tieshan, there are only five absolute top leaders in the organization.
That is the shadow-level assassin above the five gold medal assassins.
That is, "Send Five Shadows to Death".
The person responsible for commanding Iron Mountain is the "Pale Shadow" whose name Iron Mountain has only heard of but has never seen in person, also known as the "Pale Knight".
A mysterious knight whose true identity is unknown.
Apart from this, Tieshan didn’t know anything.
"Damn it, it's a shame that I'm still weak."
"Otherwise, I'll just kill all the possible murderers and eliminate all factors that may bring danger." Levi thought to himself.
In the prison, Tieshan was panting, sweating profusely, and his face was pale.
"Kill me and give me a good time."
Tieshan's eyes were dull, he had been tortured crazy by Li Wei.
Li Wei knew that this guy couldn't ask anything else, so in order to prevent accidents, he ended Tieshan's sinful life and burned his body.
In the fire, Levi saw the fleeting shadow of a ferocious giant crocodile again this time.
He looked gloomy until the iron mountain turned into ashes.
A few days later, a serf found a hungry and skinny mountain war horse in a part of the territory and dedicated it to Li Wei.
Li Wei saw that it was actually a war horse. He checked the war horse and found that there was nothing wrong with the horse except malnutrition.
Obviously, this war horse is Tieshan's mount.
He also found a small cloth bag under the harness.
There were hundreds of gold coins inside, as well as some dry food and water.
In addition, there is also a "Praise of Shadows" and a Death Bird Face, which are the same as what Li Wei got before. It seems that Tieshan is also a believer of the Lord of Shadows.
Behind it is still the Siren Breathing Technique that Levi has learned.
It's a pity that there is no breathing method practiced by Tieshan that Li Wei wants.
It was a defensive breathing technique comparable to the Black Snake Breathing Technique.
"What's this?"
Levi found a piece of parchment and opened it.
It's actually a map.
"A map of the north of the Emerald Kingdom? There is such a good thing in this iron mountain?" Li Wei was delighted. This was an unexpected surprise.
Although Li Wei has deep doubts about the accuracy of this map based on the level of technology in this world, judging from Tieshan's ability to find Blackwater Valley based on this map, this map still has basic accuracy.
And, most importantly, Levi also saw some information he needed on this map.
"There is a stronghold of the Bird of Death, oh, there is one in Icewind City. There are three permanent knights who serve as training instructors for the assassin apprentices, teaching assassination techniques, and are also responsible for contacting the assassins in Icewind City."
Levi muttered to himself, looking at the map, he felt that it was time to make this damn organization pay the price for assassinating him three times!
But before that, he had to master the Black Snake Breathing Technique to the fifth level.
At the same time, he was also worried that if the assassination failed, he would not know whether the "pale shadow" who sued Bird Voice to death would personally end up bullying the small and assassinate him.
"Liver, liver, liver! You must practice the breathing method with all your strength and improve your cultivation as much as possible."
"At the same time, the territory must enter a state of wartime martial law to prevent a situation like Iron Mountain from happening again."
The most difficult thing about this Death Bird organization is that many of its members have practiced the Siren Breathing Technique, which allows them to change their body shape. If they sneak in through the disguise technique, they may be able to detect some abnormalities, but those ordinary soldiers and civilians, It's hard for them to detect anything.
But Li Wei couldn't think of any good solution.
He could only try his best to improve his cultivation level a little before the enemy arrived.
…
In the year 1007 of the Holy Calendar, it is the month of the wheat field and the season of wheat yellow.
The serfs in the territory began to prepare for the autumn harvest.
The forging industry is still developing in full swing, but a lot of iron sheets used for forging armor have been accumulated in the warehouse.
Because the lord responsible for forging the armor has been invisible during this period, and rarely shows his face.
Levi naturally no longer cares about forging. After he successfully prepared "Tears of the Human-Faced Spider" and "Kiss of the Human-Faced Spider" using pharmaceuticals, he no longer wasted time on pharmaceuticals and forging.
For Levi today, nothing is more important than liver breathing.
