The dove that Wallis turned into trembled violently on the eaves.

Let him flap his wings in an instant and almost fall off.

Louis, who successfully and quickly infiltrated the bookstore, did not make any movement, just quietly, as usual, trying to

Lurking in the shadows within the bookshelves.

This is normal, and there are no obstacles along the way.

The bookstore owner who was looking at the target book behind the counter didn't seem to notice that he had entered his bookstore at all.

The uninvited guest still focused his contemplative gaze on the page.

For the "Shadow Assassin", such a successful and perfect sneak is a normal thing.

After all, their full-time job is assassination.

Even his own physique has been transformed because of this, becoming a half-shadow creature, and ordinary destroyers can't detect him.

Their existence, and a level like Louis, as long as they don't act rashly, the god level can hide it.

They are the "Shadow Worms" raised by the Fire Sword Road. They are the lackeys with the highest status in the periphery of this organization, responsible for the cutting and lower levels.

The work of member docking and shady work.

These include accepting, testing new members who hope or are expected to join the organization, and helping the organization carry out assassinations

Wallis was introduced to this organization, and the person who introduced him was the current member of the Sapir family.

Patriarch, "Wolf King" Hoffman.

That's right, the patriarch of the Sapir family is also a member of the Fire Sword Road.

Wallis is Hoffman's confidant, and naturally obeys the old patriarch who is loyal to him, so he temporarily follows the shadow assassin

to perform their own assessment tasks as a new member to be observed.

With Hoffman as a guarantee, Wallis's mission can basically be said to be without difficulty.

It's just a special book taken from an ordinary second-hand bookseller, the only thing you need to pay attention to.

Only those superhumans who also coveted that book.

The information Wallis obtained showed that none of those people could be his opponent, not to mention that there was a deep doubt.

Measurable shadow assassin Louie as a sidekick.

This is simply an easy task!

Come on, it should be like this.

But what happened next made Wallis unforgettable.

In an instant.

Louis had just lurked in the shadows between the bookshelves, and Wallis' dove's wings had not stopped flapping.

It took her claws to touch the eaves.

In the shadow reflected in the pigeon's eyes, there seemed to be a deeper darkness suddenly surging.

Like a spider quietly waiting for its prey, as soon as delicious food falls from its web, it immediately

Its caught, devoured.

A vaguely human-shaped silhouette, struggling frantically in the shadows, so that the whole shadow looks like boiling water.

Violently wriggling and undulating.

It was Louie, who was trying to escape Wallis with such a clear awareness.

Only shadow creatures can deal damage to shadow creatures.

He must have felt that as long as he could escape from the shadows and return to his normal flesh and blood, he would be able to escape.

dangerous situation.

But no matter how the unworldly shadow assassin struggled and twisted with all his strength, even the shadow that originally appeared flat

With a little bulge, he still couldn't leave the shadow like a swamp.

Countless tentacle-like long limbs appeared around the shadow, plunged into the human figure, tied and engulfed.

Silently.

The shadows were calm again, as if nothing had happened, except that the area suddenly expanded

Then a little bit.

The sense of substitution is too strong, and Wallis can already feel Louis' despair at the moment.

And just right at this moment, the owner of the bookstore, who was engrossed in his research notes, suddenly raised his head and looked at the

The shadow in the bookshelf revealed a meaningful terrifying smile.

With those deep eyes, it is as terrifying as the abyss that devours people.

"He found out from the beginning!!!"

"Our traces and plans, Louis' sneaking and purpose, are all under his control, and he is simply waiting.

We cast ourselves into the net!!!”

"Laughing, he's laughing! He's laughing at our overreach!"

"It's terrible. The owner of this bookstore is as terrible as the rumors say. His emotions and anger are indistinguishable. Killing a god is like mowing the grass.

No, no, I have to go quickly, or it will be too late!"

"What Fire Sword Road and what Shadow Assassin are all fake, fake!"

The pigeons on the eaves seemed to flutter violently because of their slippery feet, and then spread their wings in a panic, and flew back frantically without looking back.

Theodore is disturbed

Sitting nervously at the counter, waiting for the owner of the bookstore to make his final decision on the book that brought endless disasters.

's trial.

If he couldn't even help him with this last straw, he would have to face his own misery.

Knot

The game is over.

When he was most desperate and anxious, it was not that he had not thought about giving the book in his hand to those people.

But reason made him not do that.

Theodore's few years as a second-hand bookseller have allowed him to deal with a lot of powerful people.

Those guys who stand above ordinary people no matter what level they are, will never do so when their own interests are involved.

Any way of life for ordinary people who know their own secrets.

If he dares to expose himself and give the book to those people, he will never see the sun tomorrow.

Therefore, it was Theodore's last desperate attempt to show the book to the young man in front of him who was barely a peer.

Decided.

He waited silently for about twenty minutes.

The anxiety in his heart made him restless at first, but later, with Lin Jie's slow and gentle page-turning movements, Xi

Otto gradually calmed down a little strangely.

"As far as this young fellow gentleman is taking my request seriously, even if there is no way:

Help me, I have met a good person, and I have no regrets.

"Moreover, from the eyes of this Mr. Lin, it seems that he can really understand these words, maybe

Can it be done?

Theodore had this expectation, but saw Lin Jie suddenly raised his head and looked at No, behind him, and showed

An ambiguous smile.

"Uh, what happened to Lin Xian?

Theodore turned his head subconsciously, but saw nothing.

Lin Jie shook his head and said, "It's nothing, I just remembered something funny.

By the way, your book is my big

I still need to study it - for a while, can you put it with me first? I'll return it to you in a few days. "

Theodore was overjoyed, which means that by leaving the book here, he promised to help him!

He nodded quickly:

"Of course, if you want, I can pass this book on to you."

Lin Jie smiled:

"Where is this good?

He paused, and suddenly felt that Xiaobai, who was holding him straight in his arms, was a little restless. He lowered his head and saw the expression of this little fat cat.

Seems eager to try.

Lin Jie followed Xiao Bai's gaze and found that a gray dove was flying with its wings fluttering outside the window.

He was a little surprised and touched Xiaobai's head: "Do you want to eat that?
