Chapter 290: The Ace of Assassins: Shadow Shining Stab!_3
However, all this was thanks to—
"Vampire Kid."
This term had an extremely powerful Dharma Realm strength on the fusion item!
It seemed that he needed to find a way to keep it upgrading.
As Shen Ye thought about this, he suddenly sensed something and pulled out the Magic Paper.
A line of text appeared:
"Heard you were looking for me?"
Prince Norton!
Shen Ye immediately wrote, "Where are you now? I'll come to meet you."
"Eternal Night City, diplomatic envoy building."
He was really in Eternal Night City?
Shen Ye was shocked.
The Nine Aspects were there; Mo Ga Ru might also be there!
"Wait for me—I'm coming right away!"
He quickly put away the Magic Paper, identified the direction, and soared into the sky.
Half an hour later.
He arrived at the border of the Undead Empire and landed by a stream.
"Why have you stopped moving? Are you planning to abandon Baxter's identity?" the large skeleton asked.
"Yes, now that the Nine Aspects are in Eternal Night City, and Mo Ga Ru is likely there too, my direct approach would be too conspicuous," Shen Ye said.
"You're planning to enter Eternal Night City in your human form? You're not part of the foreign envoys; they'll catch you immediately," the large skeleton said.
"That's why I need your help now."
"What?"
"—I remember you undead also send letters."
"Yes."
"How about we send a courier?"
"What's a courier?"
"It's like sending something to Eternal Night City."
"Mailing other things is of course possible, but if you mail a living person, other undead might eat them," the skeleton said.
"That works."
"Huh? It works?"
A few minutes later.
An unremarkable skeleton arrived at an Undead Town on the border, found the messenger, and paid a large sum of Bone Coins.
The item being sent was simple.
Explore hidden tales at empire
The address was also very reliable.
Nothing more to say—
Seeing the pile of Bone Coins, the messenger promptly stamped the "urgent" mark, activated the freight Teleportation Array, and sent the package to Eternal Night City.
Eternal Night City.
Messenger Transit Bureau.
An "urgent" marked package was taken away.
After rigorous inspections, it was returned.
Only then did a messenger take the package and deliver it to the hotel where the diplomatic envoy was staying.
"A package from Viscount Gua Wa for Prince Norton?"
Two guards and an assassin examined the package.
Everything was normal.
The package finally reached Prince Norton's lead Court Grand Mage, Yudelia's, hands.
The content of the package was so straightforward that Yudelia just glanced at it and without using any Technique, she understood what was inside.
Out of caution, Yudelia still cast a Scouting Technique.
There was no reaction from the package.
Only then did she stand up, walked to the door of the prince's room, and knocked.
They were discussing matters inside.
"What is it?"
Prince Norton's voice sounded.
"Viscount Gua Wa has sent a package."
"Him?"
"Yes, I've checked it, and there should be no danger."
"Bring it in!"
"Yes."
The package was placed on the table.
As for Prince Norton—
he sat on a spacious and comfortable sofa, sipping coffee while looking at a piece of intelligence.
All the aides gathered around.
"My lord, a viscount's package is not worth looking at."
An aide suggested.
"Yes, it must be those vacillating fellows again, seeing His Majesty did not punish you, they hurried to ingratiate themselves with you."
"No more words," said Prince Norton, "open it immediately, I want to see what's inside."
An assassin personally opened the package.
A normal makeup mirror appeared before everyone.
The assassin picked up the mirror, fiddled with it seriously, and then said:
"Your Highness, this is just a normal mirror."
"That's strange, let me see." Prince Norton took the mirror and observed it carefully.
Indeed.
It was indeed a normal mirror.
"From where was it sent?" Prince Norton asked.
"Undead Border Town, a very small town," Yudelia said.
"...What's going on, he really is something, can't he speak directly?" Prince Norton sighed.
Suddenly.
A voice arose from behind everyone:
"It's all right, I just came to see you."
In the room, everyone turned around together—
"Peiqi!"
"Saint Peiqi!"
"—It's Lord Peiqi, knighted by the prince himself, he has come too!"
The crowd burst into an uproar.
Shen Ye was seen squatting on the windowsill outside the room, smiling at everyone.
—The legendary assassin, Lord Saint Peiqi!
How did he appear?
Nobody had any idea!
A sense of respect spontaneously rose in everyone's heart.
—Powerful people are always respected.
Someone hurriedly got up to open the window.
Shen Ye jumped into the room.
Actually, if one seriously explained, the entire process was quite simple.
The profession of the "Non-Living Master" allows one to exist within a mirror.
First, enter the mirror.
Send a skeleton to mail it.
Upon arrival, reflect oneself on the window glass from the mirror.
Transfer oneself into the window glass.
Come out from the window glass.
Squat on the windowsill and say, "hi~"
It was that simple.
But if one does not understand the principle of the profession "Non-Living Master," they would be completely baffled.
—After all, it seems that no one has ever encountered this profession.
Even the Cosmic Giant Insect of the king species was fooled.
"Where did you pop out from!" asked Prince Norton in amazement.
"Would you believe me if I said it was the mirror?"
"I know you assassins have many tricks, but popping out of a mirror, don't even mention it, I am not a child!"
"Well, I didn't know your exact location, so I sent a package and followed the messenger here."
That must be the real truth.
Everyone nodded to themselves.
Shen Ye exchanged a few cordial words with everyone while smiling.
"I have something I need to discuss with Peiqi alone, you all may leave now," Prince Norton said.
The crowd tactfully rose and left the room.
Only Norton and Shen Ye remained.
