182. Desperate Backstab(2/2)
But some things cannot be concealed!
His body trembled, and the soul emperor's eyes narrowed slightly. He stopped abruptly and showed an expression of disbelief. Then he slowly lowered his head and looked at the crossbow arrow that pierced his chest.
On the arrowhead, dark green venom was stained with red blood.
The dark green venom mixed with blood slowly fell to the ground along with the rain falling from the sky, creating a mud spot.
It seems to be mourning, and it also seems to be ashamed...
The Soul Emperor opened his mouth and murmured, as if he wanted to say something; his palms firmly grasped the arrow shaft that pierced the heart, as if this action could forcibly give him power.
I don't know whether this action really gave him a certain amount of strength, or whether it was the strength brought by his unwillingness to reflect back on the past. His hand holding the arrow shaft suddenly stopped, and it was mixed with all his soul power, and it was heartbreaking.
The roar of cracking lungs sounded!
Through the rain curtain!
Through the breeze!
Passed through this noisy and shocking sound of fighting!
"alert!!!"
Whether it was the soul masters in the rest area or the soul masters fighting on various battlefields, they all heard this cry full of pathos.
Subconsciously walking in this direction, I saw a soul emperor with a crossbow on his chest who had lost his life and was unconsciously falling towards the mud ahead.
Snapped...
The sound of the corpse falling was not loud.
But it was enough to make all the soul masters hear this voice in a daze...
It is enough to ignite the anger of all soul masters!
what is this?!
what is this?!
This soul emperor did not die in the hands of the soul beast...
But he died in the hands of his own people?!
What a joke!!!
Several soul masters who seemed to have a good relationship with the soul emperor rushed over and slowly helped the soul emperor up with red eyes.
But it's a pity...
Whether it was the venom or the fatal injuries, this Soul Emperor was destined to lose his life.
Especially after he gave up his defense and used his remaining soul power to shout those words...
There is no possibility of salvation!
"Who...who is it!!!"
“Find it out!!!”
At first, only the soul masters surrounding the soul emperor's body were shouting; but after just a moment, the sound spread instantly.
Whether it was the soul masters in the rest area or the soul masters in the middle of a battle, even though some soul masters were incompetent, they still shouted these words in cooperation!
From an emotional perspective...
No human soul master wants to be stabbed in the back by his teammates!
Especially backstabbing with a crossbow, an extremely despicable weapon!
not to mention...
They fought bloody battles on the front line, not just to be stabbed in the back when they returned!
This Soul Emperor is indeed a little careless.
But this is not the reason for the murderer to take action!
If he was stabbed in the back from time to time, who would dare to fight like this?
And from a logical point of view...
Do you understand what it means to take the overall situation into consideration?
After fighting all day and night, everyone's nerves were tense, but at this time something unexpected happened, and it was the perfect trigger for a soul emperor to be assassinated by a crossbow...
To be honest, if Shui Feng hadn't known that the soul beast couldn't use crossbows, he would have doubted whether this was a divorce plan on the part of the soul beast!
Therefore, regardless of emotion or reason, the murderer must be severely punished!
This is the prerequisite to ensure that this soul master team can continue to support!
Trust is something that is hard to build but easy to break.
Taking a deep breath to suppress the raging anger in his heart, Shui Feng, who was still fighting, glanced at the faces of everyone in the crowd, and then quickly found the person who looked wrong.
Oh, no.
It should be a young soul master with a strange expression!
Of course, it doesn't mean that the young soul master's face changed drastically or turned pale, nor does it mean that the young soul master still holds the murderous weapon.
Because of...
In the rest area, all the soul masters scanned the people around them with wary expressions; only this young soul master's expression was extremely calm.
It's just like...
It’s like he’s not afraid of others attacking and killing him!
The corners of Shui Feng's eyes twitched violently. She behaved so abnormally. Do you really think that she, a Contra with too much distraction, couldn't notice it?
So, she calmly ordered:
"Bing'er, Yue'er, go and capture that soul master! Don't be careless!"
The reason why it was "captured" rather than executed was mainly because she was not sure whether the young soul master was the murderer.
If the young soul master is executed forcibly based on his cry of injustice, although it can ensure that the team stabilizes in a short period of time, if the same incident happens again...
Then there is really no way to save the day!
Attack and kill, unjust killing.
Add the two together, and the end of this team's disintegration is just around the corner!
Therefore, in order to avoid this situation, Shui Feng adopted this method that still had room for improvement.
But I didn't expect...
As if he sensed something was wrong, the young man suddenly hid in the crowd with a few flashes of light and an afterimage!
Shui Yue'er and Shui Bing'er, who had just seen their target getting ready to start, could only look at each other blankly because they lost their target, and then subconsciously looked at Shui Feng.
Fortunately, Shui Feng never took his eyes away from the young soul master. While his expression was slightly cold, he was also sure of the identity of the murderer.
But she did not send Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er out again. Instead, she turned around and said calmly to the vice-president of Shenfeng Academy next to her:
"Buy me a minute, let me catch that beast with my own hands, and then deal with it."
After hearing this, the vice president of Kamikaze Academy nodded without saying a word.
He knows.
Shui Feng took action just to be on the safe side.
After all, a soul emperor has been assassinated. Even if the soul emperor was defenseless, it was enough to show that the murderer's concealment methods and attack abilities were extremely good.
but...
If a Contra takes action personally, no matter how good the killer's attack ability is, he will not be able to create any waves in the palm of a Contra!
This is an upright crushing in terms of strength!
While thinking this, the vice president of Kamikaze Academy took the initiative and stopped the 80,000-year-old soul beast that Shui Feng had been facing.
But the truth is often surprising.
Before Shui Feng arrived, the people around the young soul master were alert and isolated the young man who had rushed in.
Although it is very rude...
But it is indeed isolated!
"Catch it! It's the murderer!"
I don't know who it was, but suddenly shouted in the crowd.
In short, many soul masters rushed forward, including some injured soul masters.
However, there were still a few soul masters who remained rational; they did not rush forward, but instead watched the surroundings vigilantly, as if they suspected that there must be something fishy about this matter.
But soon, when those flying needles came towards their faces, causing many soul masters to be directly hit, these soul masters who were taking a wait-and-see approach could no longer sit still.
"The thief still dares to resist!"
