Chapter 299 Principles of the Black Shadow Corps
Kassadin held the dagger in his hand and stared at the door in front of him, feeling extremely nervous.
About half a minute passed before Kassadin raised his head with determination.
"Kasha...wait for me."
As the palace door opened, Kassadin came to the center of the main hall openly.
Looking around, Kassadin didn't see the strict defenses he thought. Not only that, the defense here didn't seem to be as tight as the outermost.
"Welcome to my palace, warrior."
While Kassadin was still looking around in confusion, Azir, who was sitting on the throne, spoke.
Kassadin immediately assumed a fighting stance and quickly scanned the surroundings.
There might be an ambush... Kassadin thought.
"Hahaha... don't worry too much, there are only three of us here." Azir guessed Kassadin's current thoughts and said with a smile.
Kassadin heard this and looked at the long-haired man standing next to Azir. He had seen this kind of outfit in Chinese history books.
"Visitor, tell me your purpose." Azir dragged his chin with one hand, and the other hand drooped casually, not treating Kassadin as a threat at all.
Seeing the other party like this, Kassadin certainly knew that he had been underestimated.
"Your Majesty the King...please forgive me for my presumptuous sneaking in, but...only by doing this can my little girl have a chance of survival. I hope your Majesty can..." Kassadin knew that he was in Azir's eyes. Like an ant, but not easy to attack... After all, the other party is the emperor of the empire, and he is just a woodcutter. Although he sneaked into the palace with his superb skills and experience,...
The moment he stepped into the palace and saw Azir, Kassadin already understood.
His infiltration plan has long been seen through, and he was even led by the other party...
It makes sense when you think about it. In such a huge and powerful empire, how could the palace be so poorly guarded? It turns out... it was the emperor who did it on purpose...
"You came here to find me...to save your daughter?" Azir asked with interest.
Kassadin nodded, then bent his right leg into a half-kneeling position.
"My little girl contracted a strange disease not long ago. According to the doctor's guess, it may have been a biochemical weapon on your country's battlefield... Apart from coming to your Majesty for help, I really can't find a way to save my little girl..." Kassadin said sincerely He said that the previous idea of holding the emperor hostage and threatening the empire to hand over the antidote had long been abandoned.
Kassadin even felt that his previous idea was too stupid, maybe because he was eager to save his daughter. A few days later, after thinking for a while, Kassadin finally recognized the fact...
Holding the emperor hostage? Assassinate the minister? You think I am a god! Even if I am a legendary hunter, I can't do it. If the other party doesn't want to see me, I won't even have a chance to appear in front of them.
Thinking of this, Kassadin couldn't help but feel a little resentful towards Mrs. Jesta.
It's obvious that you want me to die...
And according to Kassadin's observations, this monarch does not seem to be a tyrant. Since he is willing to see me, there must be room for negotiation.
His guess was not wrong, Azir did have some thoughts about him...or rather, he had some thoughts about the dagger in his hand.
"Oh? What exactly is the disease?" Azir asked casually, his eyes firmly fixed on Kassadin's dagger.
After spending a few minutes describing the cause and effect, Kassadin lowered his head.
"Please your majesty...please your majesty...must save the little girl! As long as the little girl can be rescued, I am willing to do anything for your majesty!"
Azir looked away and thought for a moment.
Just when Azir was hesitating, the system sent a prompt...or in other words, Renyi received the system's prompt...
"Trigger the side mission: Kassadin's request for help... This branch involves the existing magic clues in this world. Reward: Ancient magic clues, Blade of Desolation, deduction points +1..."
Ren Yi, who was taking a bath in the royal bathroom of a certain country, was confused when he saw this prompt.
After being informed by the system that the task was triggered by the clone, I decisively accepted it.
Anyway, if you don’t do it yourself, how can you miss such a pie-in-the-sky thing?
So, as a clone, Azir had no choice but to follow Ren Yi's wishes and agreed to Kassadin.
But... what exactly is this disease? How come I didn’t know we still had this kind of biological weapon?
"Brother...that..." At this time, the Holy Master came to Azir and whispered.
After a while of whispering, Azir understood the situation.
It turns out that the reason why Kassadin's daughter got that disease was all caused by the Holy Lord... Strictly speaking, it was not a disease, but a state of suspended animation after the soul was extracted.
Because the concentration of magic power in this world is low, the demons have already spent a lot of energy just maintaining their own magic power, let alone engaging in other summoning magic.
The Holy Lord is an ancient demon who is proficient in black magic. In the original world, he gained the ability to summon the Black Shadow Corps by absorbing the magic power from the ghost mask. However... there is no ghost mask in this world, and the magic power of this world The system is very different from the original world. The magic power of the Black Shadow Corps is limited, and it is less when summoned once...
The Holy Lord didn't know it when he was just resurrected, so he wasted no time in summoning a large number of shadow corps. As a result, the magic power reserves are now insufficient and it is almost impossible to summon the black shadow corps...
But... the Holy Lord thought of a way, or developed a method.
He discovered: The ninjas of the Black Shadow Corps are actually human souls. The ghost mask is to complete the summoning ritual by imprisoning the souls of ancient generals and soldiers in the mask and releasing them when necessary...
So, if I use the sheep charm to extract the human soul, seal it into a special instrument, inject a small amount of shadow magic into the instrument, and summon it again, can I create a shadow ninja?
The answer is: yes.
To sum up, Kassadin's daughter accidentally bumped into the Holy Master who was awakening the Diqui. It happened that the Holy Master also wanted to hide and reserve some shadow ninjas, so... her soul was taken away.
"They don't even spare children. They are indeed demons... By the way, didn't you collect enough on the battlefield?" Azir sighed.
"The more the merrier...and they know too much, so silencing them is the best option." The Holy Master did not feel guilty at all, he spoke with his chest raised and his head raised, showing the devil's greed without any pretense.
With that said, the Holy Lord summoned four shadow ninjas.
"Your daughter will be saved soon." Azir glanced at the four shadow ninjas, and with a wave of his hand, he turned them into black balls and attracted them into his palm.
"As long as you crush these balls, your daughter will wake up..."
"Really?" Kassadin raised his head sharply, his surprise palpable.
"But... you have to do something..." Azir's tone suddenly turned cold.
"As long as you can save my daughter, please give me your orders..." Kassadin said firmly.
"Bring the man who gave you the dagger... to me..."
