The Righteous Player(s)

Chapter 65: Killing Line

   The sky is dim.

   Evening is approaching.

   Amidst the sound of increasing rain, the wheels of the wagon broke through the water on the ground, making a clattering sound and galloped forward.

   Finally, the carriage stopped in front of the Viscount’s Mansion.

   "I really trouble you."

   A normal-looking young man with a gentle smile on his face opened the door of the car and thanked him softly: "Such a heavy rain came to send me off."

   "It's okay, Lord Gerald."

   The coachman laughed loudly: "Am I waiting for you here?"

   "No, I will let the coachman of the Viscount's house take me back."

   Dr. Gerald replied politely: "The rain is getting heavier and heavier. You may catch a cold waiting here. Please come back."

   "It's okay, Your Excellency Gerald. Even if you don't pay for such a small matter, I will definitely help... Besides, you have given so much money.

   The coachman didn't care about this: "You are such a kind and good neighbor, there are not many ways in this world."

   Gerald just smiled and got out of the car under the umbrella.

   He replied in a slow, warm voice: "Then I'm going, sir. Tonight also pay tribute to the silver coin."

   "Salute to the silver coin, sir."

   sent away the neighbor's coachman, Dr. Gerald still had the gentle smile on his mouth, and walked to the courtyard.

   The four guards are hiding under the eaves, guarding the door with their guns on their backs.

   Seeing Dr. Gerald come alone, one of the guards hesitated slightly and walked over.

   The other guards also held their guns vigilantly for the first time.

   The guard opened his mouth and asked, "Are you Lord David Gerald?"

   When he said this, he held up a square, very flat jade jade plate in his hand and pointed it at Dr. Gerald.

  Doctor Gerald is not at all tired of this.

   He just replied in a gentle and rounded tone: "Yes, I am David Gerald."

   Answer this, and the jade medallion shines with bright white light.

   The guard nodded slightly, and the other guards also put away their weapons.

   "Please come in, sir."

   Another guard walked over and bowed to Dr. Gerald: "I will take you in."

  Gerald followed him, smiling and joking: "I thought Justin would come to receive me."

   "...sorry, sir."

   The guard was silent for a while, and replied in a low voice.

   His voice trembled slightly.

   Gerald's pace paused slightly, and then continued walking forward as if nothing had happened.

   But there are transparent ripples in his pupils, like waves in a lake that spread out in circles.

  The world in front of me instantly turned into the black and white of an old TV, and everyone was exuding color brilliance with different tones and proportions.

  ——【Consciousness Judgment】

   Gerald looked at him quietly.

   Such a strong sense of vigilance? Fear is not very strong... Sure enough, is there a back-hand? This subtle killing intent... Haha, if I hadn't expected it, I might have regarded it as hostility.

   He is more certain about his previous speculations.

   As a fugitive wizard, David Gerald has been removed from the Dark Tower and is no longer directly under the official kingdom. But it is wanted by soft.

   is the so-called "Black Wizard" mark.

   The so-called soft wanted is that he didn't really send someone to arrest him. Just put his name on the wanted order and make a form. On the other hand, Gerald himself cannot cross the border, borrow money, marry and have children... at the same time he does not enjoy the protection of the law.

   In other words, whether the curse hunter kills him or robs him, it is not illegal. But that's it.

   After all, he had only stolen the curse, he had not held an illegal sacrifice, nor had he killed anyone, so he could only be judged as “may cause harm” for the time being. Naturally, he would not be specially assigned to arrest him.

  Especially he is a wizard of the Imperius school. It belongs to the type who can't beat and can run, and doesn't bother to waste precious manpower on him.

   But Gerald must be wary of those who curse hunters.

  Their wizards can continuously increase their strength as long as they keep using spells while maintaining a balance of mana. It is undoubtedly very difficult to quickly improve the strength of the hunter series of occupations in peaceful times.

   Because they want to hunt down other supernatural beings.

   These wanted orders are actually written specifically to hunters. Almost telling them clearly, "You can only kill these people. Only killing these people is not counted as a crime of homicide, and rewards are also given."

  Even Gerald is afraid of hunters.

  Ghost knows what strange abilities can be combined by hunters.

   The transcendents of this era usually have received a good education. Before they enter the stage, they will try to plan a set of capabilities that can form a cycle. After getting the curse of the bronze step, he will basically start to decide the path he wants to take.

   In this way, the most complete or extreme personal ability can be achieved under the limited "self-curse capacity"-that is, the limit of the number of skills that comes with the upgrade.

   But in any case, these skills are traceable.

   If you want to get other abilities, you can only rely on temporary curses, or curse objects, or get random extra abilities by inheriting other people's curses.

   The hunter is completely different.

   Hunters only need to kill the extraordinary and hold a simple ritual, and they can plunder part of the opponent's abilities, which can be temporarily activated.

   So the abilities of the hunter are very messy. Although every hunter has a very fatal flaw-that is, their killing methods are limited.

   But hunters have always used darkness to light. Only hunters investigate extraordinary people. There is no reason to investigate killers in advance.

   Gerald’s response method, in addition to the curse that always protects him, "I’m not here", is to briefly activate a simple spell every hour or so:

  ——【Consciousness Capture: Killing Intent】

   The water waves under Gerald's eyes condensed, and the crimson brilliance in his pupils flashed, lasting only a short second.

   And in this second, he clearly saw a very thin line pointed out from the Viscount's mansion, and the other paragraph was tied to himself.

  ...... Oh, sure enough.

   Gerald pursed the corners of his mouth slightly, his eyes cold.

   This is the pre-spell of the Imperius spell.

   "Capturing Consciousness: Killing Intent" allows Gerald to discover for the first time the location of the person who has a clear intent to kill him.

   is like a mind detector.

   Whenever someone tries to aim a gun at Gerald, there will be a line of sight in his mind, aiming back at the person pointing at him.

   Even if you are outside the spell range of "Consciousness Replacement" and "Consciousness Loss", you can roughly know where the enemy comes from; as long as you appear in the field of vision, you can lock it for the first time.

  The main way they fight in the bronze stage is to capture a certain consciousness emerging from the opponent, then capture and transfer it to another person, or reduce it or detonate it.

   Until they reach the Silver Stage, they can't have direct killing ability.

But if it only captures and does not interfere, and is only limited to killing intent... Then as long as the second is on and the second is off, it means that it will hardly consume order mana, and it is unlikely to be anti-detection spells or It is the ability to perceive.

   just arrived at the Viscount's Mansion, he saw a murder intent in the Viscount's Mansion, which was very clearly directed towards him.

   Viscount really wants to do it...

   Gerald looked at that direction, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

   That person should be Viscount Barbara.

   He can feel that there is not much curse on the other party, it should be an ordinary person.

   And Gerald is very sure that he has not offended other ordinary people at all.

  ——In normal life, he will be very careful in dealing with things.

   He has never been an enemy, alienated from others, and has always maintained a kindness, even to the point of humility. And ordinary people who might be enemies with him and kill him will be killed silently by him.

   In this way, the search error can be minimized.

   Everyone in the entire Viscount’s Mansion, Gerald has never been in contact.

   This is the strategy he has already thought of after arriving in Roseburg-he only deals with the extraordinary, so that he can clearly realize when the Viscount has murderous intent on him.

   Whenever he has the intent to kill, when he is ready to run away.

   Four hours ago, he detected a killing intent from an ordinary person in the direction of the Viscount Mansion. That can only come from Viscount Barbara...because no one else had a chance to know him.

   Yes, everything is expected.

   A bright and confident smile appeared on Gerald's face.

   "The Viscount Lord has been waiting for a long time."

   He said softly, his eyes drooping.

  He is ready to use [Manipulate Human Mind] at the moment of opening the door ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ to completely deprive the Viscount's consciousness.

   And the guard next to him was suddenly taken aback.

   Fear and panic suddenly emerged in his heart, and then replied calmly: "The Viscount Lord is not here for the time being. He will be back soon, please wait."

"……what?"

   Gerald was taken aback for a moment, and stopped at the same place as he walked to the front door three or four steps.

   He didn't use any spells, he only needed professional common sense to judge, and the guard's words were indeed truthful.

   If you say, the Viscount is not at home.

   Then the man behind the door who has the intent to kill himself...who is it?

   Gerald immediately turned his head and whispered the keywords he set to the guards beside him:

   "Look at me... [patient]."

   At the moment when he said the keyword [patient], a burst of color burst into Gerald's eyes.

   The guard did not react at all.

   "Tell me, what on earth did your Viscount Master plan?"

   "Master Viscount intends to trick you and Lord Gerant into here, and then light a black fire to burn you all in the house."

   The guard replied smoothly: "And he and the housekeeper have already gone to the winery in the suburbs——"

   "Shoot at that door in five seconds!"

   Gerald did not hesitate to interrupt the guard, and reached out to the other end of the line of killing intent just now, and ordered to the guard: "Kill all those who come out of the door!"

   At the same time, he immediately evacuated outwards and ran away, ready to go to the door and control a group of guards armed with guns to cover his escape.

   And the guard who was seized of consciousness by him did not hesitate to pull out the rifled gun——
