Chapter 221 Would Be Assassin

Within the lush, verdant green forest Daedalus and Long Tian could be seen making their way along through on the backs of their horses. They where within this forest because Daedalus had taken the quest as he knew it was best if they went themselves rather than those weaker than them.

It was as these thoughts where going through his head when at the last second Daedalus noticed a slight blur in the area beside his horse. In quick succession a man in a black cloaked revealed himself while slashing an ominously glinting dagger at Daedalus' side. Daedalus who had already started to react knew it was likely poisoned and withdrew his old shield from his spatial ring.

Luckily for Daedalus, and his shield, he had been constantly using his energies to refine the power of all of his weapons tools and armour, just in case. So when the dagger did arrive, although Daedalus hadn't had enough time to ground himself in preparation for the attack , he was only flung backwards. By some sort of twisted luck Daedalus found himself bouncing off of a tree before landing back on his feet.

Fortunately Daedalus had been able to gauge the strength of the attacker with his attack. Daedalus could only sigh that the attacker wasn't that strong and only had a good sneaking technique. Around this time Long Tian had arrived cutting off the attempted assassin's arms and a leg.

As the assassin's arm, that was holding the dagger, was cut off the dagger fell in front of Daedalus. At this point the assassin was screaming from pain on the ground which was quickly turning a darker shade. Daedalus picked up the dagger and began to observe the poison.

"A soul poison, quite erosive, probably greater soul erosion poison. Wouldn't even really effect me except I slight burning feeling for a few days, like having a cold." Long Tian couldn't help but laugh but Daedalus continued "If you had been attack and wounded Tian then I would have had to bury your corpse."

Long Tian gulped down his previous laughter and picked up the armless one legged man that had attack Daedalus. Before long the man had started talking about how his master had sent him to at least mortally wound one of the two, this of course backfired heavily on him. To the would be assassin's knowledge his master was located at the center of the forest.

This of course made things far easier for Daedalus and Long Tian as they now knew where they would be going. So with most everything information wise now known Daedalus asked "How strong is your master?"

The assassin laughed saying "He is nearing god hood, you would die if you even tried to fight him."

Before the assassin could continue Daedalus stabbed him in his remaining foot and didn't bother to listen to the blood curdling screams of the dying assassin. Instead he focused on creating a small formation within the dirt while thinking 'Maybe I should make this a hand held array or something.'
