The name of the King of Killers, Mai Rui, is famous throughout the Celtic countries. Logically speaking, if a killer becomes famous, he is basically close to death. But Mai Rui is an exception. This black man is not only still alive, but also getting younger as he lives.
There is only one reason why this is the case, and that is that this person is really very strong. The title of King of Killers was never said by him, but was placed on his head by others. There is a saying that goes well, there are always wrong names, but never wrong nicknames.
Brother Hei has been able to travel around the world for so many years and still be alive and kicking because of his superb stealth skills! Let's put it this way, as long as he doesn't open his mouth to show his big white teeth at night, others will want to see him even if they are standing in front of him!
Being a killer, being able to fight is never the most important thing. After all, no matter how hard he fights, he will only be hacked to death if he is surrounded. But Mai Rui is different. As long as it is at night, no one can find him. So over the years, his reputation has grown bigger and bigger, but he has lived a very prosperous life.
It was also because of this that Mai Rui dared to take this business.
You know, Kai was never a nobody. As early as ten years ago, Kai had become a champion knight at the age of eighteen. At that time, almost everyone felt that this boy would definitely achieve great things in the future. After Kai returned from traveling around the world for ten years, his reputation became even more famous. During the days after Kai came back, many knights challenged Kai, hoping to use Kai's name to become famous.
As a result, none of these challengers could last three minutes in Kai's hands. It is also because of this that the reputation of the first knight of the Kai Kingdom has become more and more famous recently.
Dealing with the business of such a ruthless person, ordinary killers would not take it at all. Because killing is for the sake of money, who would risk death?
What's more, Kai is a member of the royal family of Camelot. The profession of killers is shady no matter what, so they are more careful when dealing with high-status objects like the royal family, because once the incident occurs, the entire Celtic kingdom will kill them, and no kingdom can tolerate it. A killer who killed the royal family was a provocation to the entire ruling class.
Only Mai Rui, the king of killers, has this courage, because Mai Rui has confidence in himself! He felt like he could kill Kai and deal with the aftermath!
It is precisely because of this crazy self-confidence that Mai Rui dared to accept the employment of King Odin. Odin's commission was absolutely crazy. He not only wanted to kill Kai, but also wanted to kill King Uther's only son Arthur. , this is the plan to make the Camelot royal family extinct! Arthur is the first heir to Camelot. Although Camelot has never made it clear who is the second heir, in terms of ability and character, Kai is the best choice. If Arthur really If there is a problem, then Kaiji is likely to become the heir.
Many people actually know this, but King Odin plans to kill the two heirs at once! As a result, there will be no heir in the Camelot royal family who can convince the public, and then the entire Camelot will be in turmoil.
This move can definitely be said to be cruel and ruthless, and it is also very taboo. It is also a behavior that all major royal families vigorously combat and despise. We all want to be kings. Who wants to be killed and cut off from their descendants?
Therefore, this commission was destined to be extraordinary from the beginning. Once successful, it would definitely cause shock in all countries, and he, Mai Rui, would also fall into the situation of encirclement and suppression by all countries. If he didn't have any confidence, Mai Rui would really not dare to accept this business.
…
In this war, Kai has been active at the forefront, so his command post was also set up in the border castle Catlin Castle. This castle was originally a fortress built for the war between Camelot and the Kingdom of Cendrid. , but after King Uther ascended the throne, he was committed to maintaining peace with the Kingdom of Sendrid. After years of hard work, Camelot and the Kingdom of Sendred finally reached a peace agreement. In the same way, this fortress originally used for war was once abandoned. , became a small border town.
Unexpectedly, today, due to Arthur's impulse, this small border town that had accepted a peaceful life would once again become a war fortress.
It is also because this castle was used for war from the beginning, so the entire fortress was built to be extremely easy to defend and difficult to attack. In addition, Kai led the army to station, making this small fortress even more heavily defended, almost every day. There are sentries every few steps, and soldiers are patrolling almost day and night. Coupled with various hidden sentries, it is absolutely impossible to say that it is impregnable.
But in the eyes of the King of Killers, Mai Rui, this is nothing. He is a killer, and his job is to sneak in and assassinate. Ordinary guards are nothing to him.
He hid under the city wall, waiting for the opportunity for the defenders to change shifts on the city wall. At the same time, he was memorizing the frequency of mobile sentries on the city wall. He needed to take action when everyone was slacking off.
He was like a stone that could not breathe, squatting motionless at the base of the city wall. Even though the soldiers above his head were constantly patrolling back and forth, no one noticed him.
At three or four in the morning, Mai Rui suddenly opened his eyes.
The time has come!
I saw Mai Rui, who was originally hidden in the shadow of the city wall, suddenly jump up the city wall, yes, just jump up. He took a few steps on the city wall, and relying on the friction between his shoes and the city wall, he suddenly jumped to a height of more than four meters. Originally, when he got here, most people would fall because they had no strength to back up, but Mai Rui was bare-handed. Directly on the city wall! Just like a gecko.
His fingers were tightly clasped in the narrow gaps between the stones of the city wall. With just a little bit of force, Mai Rui climbed up the city wall as quickly as if he were walking on flat ground.
At this time, it was time to change shifts on the city wall. This time is originally the deepest moment of the night, and people's vigilance is at its worst. Those soldiers who were keeping vigil were already exhausted. In addition, it was time to change shifts, and everyone's attention had already flown to the warm tents. I didn't pay attention to what was going on around me.
Also taking advantage of this opportunity, Mai Rui passed quickly through the city wall silently. Not only was his speed fast, but there was no sound of footsteps. It was impossible for those soldiers who were not focused enough to notice that someone had just run past under their noses.
After entering the city, Mai Rui quickly moved towards Kai's location according to the information given by King Odin.
Although he encountered patrolling soldiers several times during this period, Mai Rui managed to avoid them with almost no chance by relying on his uncanny concealment skills. Soon, Mai Rui arrived at the highest level of the castle, Kai's temporary lounge!
