Chapter 245 Baxia, Kill Them
As soon as Zhao Youqian finished speaking, two assassins, like ghosts, launched an attack on Zhao Manyan from the left and right sides simultaneously.
Their movements were swift and deadly, clearly intended to kill with a single blow.
As death loomed, Zhao Manyan closed his eyes in despair, having even given up the fight.
When he learned that the person who wanted to kill him was his own brother, his heart died.
At this moment, his mind was in turmoil, and he truly wished he could just die.
However, the moment he closed his eyes, the wooden fish vessel hidden deep within his soul suddenly emitted a dazzling light.
"Mmm~~~"
"Mmm~~~"
Two earth-shattering roars suddenly rang out over the bay.
In an instant, the entire space trembled.
Immediately afterwards, the once calm sea began to churn violently, creating huge waves.
These waves surged upwards, reaching straight to the horizon.
When they rise to a certain height, towering tsunamis, like mountains, crash down in all directions, as if to drag this water city completely into the endless ocean.
Tens of thousands of residents in Venice witnessed this breathtaking scene.
Numerous magicians took to the air and rushed towards the bay.
"Baxia, take them down!"
A faint voice seemed to come from beyond the heavens, or perhaps from the netherworld.
The sound seemed so insignificant amidst the roar of the waves, yet it possessed an irresistible power.
If Zhao Manyan hadn't been driven to mental disorder by the poison, he would have been able to see a very familiar person above the waves.
Unfortunately, his consciousness is now beginning to fade.
A huge wave carried Zhao Manyan's body slowly into the sea. When the female assassin saw her target disappear, she rushed over.
However, the next moment, a huge sea monster from the small island rushed towards it at an extremely fast speed.
In the darkness, such a colossal beast was impossible to see in its entirety, but one thing Zhao Youqian and the male assassin were absolutely certain of was that wherever their eyes fell, they could see the beast's body.
The small bay could no longer contain the body of that behemoth.
The endless seawater began to rise with the arrival of the island behemoth, and then flowed into this ancient water city.
"Mmm~~~"
Another roar that shook the heavens and the earth resounded.
The giant island beast suddenly opened its mouth and swallowed all the seawater in the area, along with everything on the surface, including the unconscious blond man and the female assassin who was grabbing at him.
The male assassin stared wide-eyed at the scene before him in disbelief.
His partner was swallowed whole by the enormous beast and vanished without a trace.
Fear surged through him like a tidal wave, causing him to tremble uncontrollably.
"not good!"
The male assassin's face turned deathly pale instantly; he realized danger was approaching.
Without hesitation, he grabbed his employer, Zhao Youqian, and desperately tried to escape.
A strong intuition told him that the giant beast was coming for them!
Just then, a low and terrifying roar rang out.
The male assassin looked up and saw a huge column of water descending from the sky, heading straight for where he and Zhao Youqian were.
The water jet was incredibly fast, carrying unparalleled power, as if it intended to destroy everything in its path.
The male assassin knew he was facing a top-tier being at the monarch level, whose casual strikes were like the scythe of death, capable of ruthlessly reaping lives.
In the critical moment, the male assassin quickly pulled out his most treasured magical artifact and stood in front of him and Zhao Youqian.
But this burden beside him can't be allowed to die, otherwise he won't get the rest of the money!
The male assassin gritted his teeth and stood in front of Zhao Youqian.
Damn it, I have to pay more!
"Click~~Click~~"
A series of soft sounds appeared.
His shield, which he had always been so proud of, was showing signs of cracking.
Fortunately, the power of the towering water column began to gradually decrease, and with the shield magic shattering, the crisis was finally resolved.
After its attack failed, the giant island beast slowly sank into the sea, its black outline quickly fading into the horizon.
After it left, the powerful humans of Venice arrived here at a leisurely pace.
Among these people were not only the local Venetian law enforcement team, but also powerful mages from various countries who had not yet left, as well as the participating students.
The city of Venice gradually began to fall into a state of panic.
Fortunately, the giant beast had no hostility toward the city; otherwise, it could have submerged it in the sea in just a few breaths.
At the recently concluded grand ceremony, those young mages displayed the power of humanity to the world. However, just a few days later, a mysteriously appearing sea monster caused the people's hard-won confidence to dissipate once again.
Humans are still so insignificant in the face of demons!
After a brief investigation and confirming that the sea beast had completely left, the powerful humans who had arrived finally departed.
"Let's go too," Zhao Youqian said, still shaken.
"Um."
The male assassin nodded indifferently.
My partner died, my most treasured magical artifact shattered, and this job was a huge loss.
Only when they found a secluded spot did the male assassin begin demanding the remaining payment from Zhao Youqian.
More money?
That is impossible!
The assassins of the Assassin Hall are strictly disciplined. Although they only work for money, they will not ruin their reputation just because the other party pays more, nor will they ask their employers to pay more because of their own losses.
This is their most basic professional ethics!
"Has the money been transferred?"
Just as the two finished their conversation, in a dark corner not far away, a young man leaning against the wall slowly straightened up and spoke.
Upon hearing this voice, the male assassin's expression changed drastically.
How is that possible?
How could someone be nearby without you noticing at all?
"Who is it?" Zhao Youqian asked, looking at the figure of the person who had arrived.
"Haven't seen you for a few days, don't you even recognize me anymore, Brother Zhao?"
The first thing to emerge from the darkness was a head of long silver hair, followed by a handsome young man with a smile on his lips.
The moment Zhao Youqian saw the silver-haired youth, he couldn't help but take a deep breath, his eyes gradually narrowing.
"It's you!"
The person who became his major client through his younger brother's introduction was also the key figure who led the Chinese team to victory.
Now, almost any Chinese person can recognize him; after all, even a fleeting glance on the screen makes it hard to forget his face.
Sensing that the other party was hostile, the male assassin silently stepped in front of Zhao Youqian.
"What? You've taken the money, aren't you leaving?" Hua Yu glanced at him indifferently.
"He can't die!"
Upon hearing this, Hua Yu couldn't help but shake his head.
"Why not just take the money and leave? Why go through all this trouble?"
