Chapter 1419 Total War (Part 2)

"I hope to participate in this assassination plan. I have some experience in spying and fighting, and there are some things I need to investigate. The most important thing is to beware of Moriarty."

Since it has been decided to assassinate Zhang Jiao, the next step is to choose the assassin. There is no doubt that Shen Fei will naturally participate. After all, he still needs to get the Taiping Yaoshu from Zhang Jiao, and he must take action to ensure the final result.

Li Xiang does not need to participate this time. In the original book, she wanted to avenge Salome, and her combat power was insufficient at that time, so she needed her temporary summons to participate in the battle. This time, with Shen Fei's participation, the combat power is naturally sufficient.

For the same reason, Kadoc and Holmes did not need to participate in this operation. However, Holmes suddenly proposed to join. Although it was a bit surprising, no one present objected. Shen Fei, considering Moriarty's situation, naturally nodded in agreement.

Also participating in the operation were Xu Fu, a magician proficient in Taoism, and a pan-human history hidden person. Xu Fu came to deal with Zhang Jiao's Qimen Dunjia, and the hidden person was naturally responsible for infiltration, collecting intelligence, etc.

Roland and Astolfo actually wanted to participate in this operation, but unfortunately, neither of them was good at infiltration. This operation was mainly based on infiltration, and it was impossible not to use Diarmuid, who was not as powerful as him.

Of course, the plan was made, but it took time and opportunity to act. First of all, we had to wait for Flanders III to train the army in a proper manner. After all, we had to use a war as bait, and also to test the combat effectiveness of the army after training.

And of course, we had to wait for Zhang Jiao to be alone. After all, we couldn't rush to the stronghold of the Revenge Realm to assassinate Zhang Jiao. This was not an assassination at all, but a forced killing.

"Hello everyone, my job title is the Hidden One, my real name is Secret, I was responsible for assassination missions in a certain cult, and I will definitely live up to my mission in this mission." Soon, the Hidden One who was ready to act together was called by Sancho, and then he told him the assassination plan in detail.

"The cult, the mask, a member of Hassan's cult? I thought I would meet someone I know." The only assassins who can be called a cult are probably the famous Hassan cult. Shen Fei originally thought that he might know the Hidden One who came, after all, he had met many old men in the mountains, but it was a pity that the one who came did not get the title of old man in the mountains.

"Please give me more advice, both of you. First of all, do you want to go for a drink? I heard that there is a way of communication called making friends with wine in modern times, although I can't drink." The Hidden One immediately greeted Shen Fei and Holmes, but his words made Shen Fei not know how to answer for a while. If he can't drink, he can make friends with wine. Isn't this contradictory? So he could only smile in response.

"Let's talk about this issue later. First of all, let's confirm each other's strength internally." Holmes immediately said, confirming each other's strength, so that we can cooperate later.

"I'll go prepare the training ground." Sancho said and left.

"Assassination, then the Holy Judge of Heavenly Fire will not work." Since it was an assassination, a weapon like the Holy Judge of Heavenly Fire, which made a loud noise, would not work. Then he took out the Sword of Light. There were four people involved in the assassination of Zhang Jue, a magician, a hidden person, and a detective, so he could only be a swordsman.

"Han Guang, the three swords of Kong Zhou, I didn't expect it to really exist." Mashu quickly searched the origin of the Sword of Light through the Chaldean system.

"Let's start." The battle was very simple, with Shen Fei fighting the hidden person, and Holmes using magic to assist on the side, of course not to assist Shen Fei, but to assist the hidden person.

"Scimitar? Speaking of which, the Hassan Cult seemed to be somewhat similar to the Helmetless Alliance at the beginning." The weapon used by the hidden person was not a short weapon like a dagger, but a medium-long type of scimitar. The scimitar in his hand reminded Shen Fei of some legends of the Hassan Cult. It existed at the beginning to resist oppression and those noble knights, which was similar to the Helmetless Alliance of Casimir in Tomorrow's Ark.

Of course, the nature of the two was similar at the beginning, but they were completely different in the later period. The No-Head Alliance deteriorated, but the Hassan Cult did not seem to deteriorate. The reason why this side did not deteriorate was probably because of the existence of Wang Ha, the crowned hero.

The battle ended quickly. Even if the opponent used smoke bombs and other means to hide by blocking the breath, it was useless against Shen Fei.

However, the competition also proved the strength of the Hidden One, who was indeed competent for this mission. Although his strength was far from Shen Fei, he was considered to be quite strong among the Hidden Ones. Moreover, for the Hidden Ones, the key was the treasure. The Hidden One's treasure was about one-hit kill. After all, it was just a competition, so naturally the treasure would not be used.

The Hider's own strength may be very weak, but after becoming a Heroic Spirit, the sublimated Noble Phantasm may be very powerful. For example, Corday's Noble Phantasm killed Odysseus, who had been strengthened by nanomachines, with one blow. Even if the opponent is not the Old Man of the Mountain, he may have powerful Noble Phantasms. You must know that there is a genius in the Hassan Cult. Although he is not the Old Man of the Mountain, he can use all the Noble Phantasms of the Old Man of the Mountain through learning.

It can be said that if the elders at that time were not too afraid of her talent and eliminated her, the 19th generation Hassan would definitely be a shocking existence. It has to be said that this is really a pity. During his lifetime, he had been practicing various extinctions and had never made a move, so he was unknown. As a result, after being called a heroic spirit, because of the lack of legend, although he could use all Hassan's treasures, the power was weakened a lot.

"Regarding Zhang Jue, the first thing to say is that compared with his treasures or techniques, his own wisdom is the most difficult. It is said that he has been taught by immortals, so we must assassinate him with respect and fear." After the competition, Xu Fu happened to be on his way, so the group came to Holmes' room and began to confirm the course of action.

"Oh, so that's why you called me here." Xu Fu nodded.

"If you want to deal with Zhang Jue, experts in immortal arts and hidden people are indispensable. I have obtained the permission of the secretary." Holmes said softly.

"But I can't go into battle myself, and I'm not very agile, and my movements are slightly slower than those of ordinary people."

"Stupid."

"That's right, that's right, stupid, I can go now."

Xu Fu didn't seem to want to participate in this assassination mission at all. Even if he was called stupid, he didn't care at all.

"Okay, don't be upset anymore." Li Xiang said immediately. Although she would not carry out the assassination mission this time, she still wanted to participate in the action plan.

"Hahaha, first let's confirm Zhang Jue's behavior pattern, and even discuss the time and place of the action." Holmes ignored Xu Fu's upset, and then roughly told Zhang Jue's intelligence. As the second-in-command of the Revenge Realm, Zhang Jue naturally received the focus of the spies lurking in the Revenge Realm, and his daily action schedule was reported.

"So if we want to ensure a foolproof assassination, we can only do it in the fortress he often goes to."

As the second-in-command of the Revenge Realm, Zhang Jue is very busy. He is not always in the base of the Revenge Realm. He often goes to a fortress, which is the front line of confrontation with the Restoration Realm.

Generally speaking, the assassination can be carried out on Zhang Jue's way forward, but considering that there are a large number of guards around Zhang Jue at that time, and if the assassination fails and alarms him, there will basically be no second chance, so it is decided to assassinate Zhang Jue after he arrives at the fortress. In the fortress, Zhang Jue can't always be accompanied by guards.

"The question is how to sneak into the fortress, how are the guards there?" The assassin asked immediately.

"There is no doubt that the security is strict, but it is not completely impeccable. Mr. Xu Fu, if it were you, how would you defend that fortress." Holmes said, looking at Xu Fu on the side.

"Do you know the appearance and location of the fortress?" Xu Fu asked immediately.

"Here it is." Holmes immediately handed the information on the table to Xu Fu.

"It's really hard." Looking at the picture of the fortress in front of him, Xu Fu's face suddenly became very serious.

"Can you tell?" Li Xiang asked curiously. She had seen the information, but it was just a picture of the exterior of a fortress, and she couldn't tell the defense situation at all.

"I don't know much about Western magic, but I can still understand Eastern magic. This fortress was built with reference to the art of Qimen Dunjia." Xu Fu explained the situation of the fortress.

"Qimen Dunjia?" Li Xiang immediately looked at Xu Fu with a puzzled look. She had mastered a lot of Western magic during this period, but it was the first time she heard of the Eastern Qimen Dunjia. But it was not her fault. The art of Qimen Dunjia, even in the East, was mastered by only a few people.

"Well, to put it simply, it relies on astrology and numerology to determine the positions of many things, including people, armies, cities, as well as steps that lead to advantages, directions that lead to failures, and so on." Xu Fu briefly explained what the Qimen Dunjia technique was, but unfortunately, Li Xiang was a little dizzy at this time. Even though Xu Fu had said it very simply, she still didn't understand it. Not only her, but also Mashu on the other side was the same.

"Remember, this is the technique used by Zhuge Kongming in the Three Kingdoms period." Holmes said.

"Stone Soldiers Eight Formations? I know. In short, this Achagok Fortress has been strictly guarded by Zhang Jiao with Taoism. It is very difficult to enter from the outside."

"On the other hand, in ancient and modern times, strong fortresses are always strong on the outside and soft on the inside. As long as we can break through the defense of Taoism, our plan may be easily achieved." Holmes suddenly said so.

"That is to say, everything depends on Miss Xu Fu now." Li Xiang said immediately.

"Hey, me?" Xu Fu said with a surprised look.

"Of course." Everyone present said in unison.

"Okay, I'll do it. After all, I'm older than that guy. I'm a well-trained sorcerer from the time of the First Emperor. Although I've been doing other things for a while, my memory of Taoism is a little fuzzy, but there will always be a way." Xu Fu seemed to remember that her era was older than Zhang Jue's.

"What should we do specifically? Do we need to investigate the fortress and then use Taoism to deal with it?" Holmes asked immediately.

"Well, are there any countermeasures that can be taken at this stage? For example, some talismans are used in Taoism, but there are also talismans that can cancel their effects. Let's make a lot of these talismans now. Then, I have to let you know what is on the market. "

Xu Fu quickly decided what to do next. Although she would follow, Holmes and others could not be completely ignorant of Qimen Dunjia. They also needed to make a batch of targeted talismans. So Shen Fei was caught as a coolie and made corresponding talismans with her.

"But now there is still one important thing missing." If you want to make talismans, you naturally need the corresponding items. Xu Fu doesn't have the Tongtian talisman, but this important thing is not that troublesome. It is the blood of monsters. There are quite a few in the Wangdao Realm. If it is not enough, just let the servants hunt monsters.

"Sure enough, Fenghou Qimen is a strange skill that breaks common sense. The next step is to put learning on the agenda."

When Shen Fei was helping Xu Fu make the talisman, he also communicated with him about Qimen Dunjia, which made him understand why the Eight Wonders are not called Eight Divine Skills, because they represent miracles and break common sense. Divine skills are just more powerful. Although the art of Qimen Dunjia is powerful, there is one thing that cannot be changed, that is, the direction. The order of the directions is fixed.

In Xu Fu's words, the art of Qimen Dunjia is compared to a pistol. No matter how powerful the gunman is, he needs to go through three steps: load the bullet, open the safety, and pull the trigger. The difference between the master and the novice is the speed, but Fenghou Qimen is different. Fenghou Qimen is equivalent to directly pulling the trigger.

Fenghou Qimen, Shen Fei got it a long time ago, but he has never practiced it. There is no way. For the art of Qimen Dunjia, he does not have Wang Ye's talent. If he practices it reluctantly, the progress is needless to say. Of course, he is not ready to give up, but he is ready to practice it later.

That is to say, he can practice when he is stronger and can take a bird's-eye view. What is taking a bird's-eye view? It is like a person who has terrible grades in elementary school or junior high school and cannot do most of the questions. But as long as he goes to college, when he looks back at these questions, he will naturally not have the same feeling as when he was a child.

And strictly speaking, although Fenghou Qimen is "I am both good and bad, I am both direction", in fact, there are still certain rules. Changing the direction at will does not mean that the direction does not exist. It depends on whether you can seize the opportunity, just like when the Fourth Hokage was against Obito's Kamui, whether he could seize the moment of its materialization.

"I see, in this case, can't we copy Zhuge Kongming's Stone Soldiers Eight Formations?"

Through the communication with Xu Fu, Shen Fei suddenly thought of a possibility, that is, to rub out Zhuge Kongming's treasure hand. He can make stone pillars and add spells at the same time. As long as the direction is determined, it is a simplified version of the Stone Soldiers Eight Formations.

At this time, Shen Fei didn't know that Xu Fu had already made this simplified version of the Eight Arrays of Stone Soldiers. Of course, the Eight Arrays of Stone Soldiers she made needed to be prepared in advance, not the Eight Arrays of Stone Soldiers that fell from the sky, but more like the Eight Arrays of Stone Soldiers mentioned in the novels to trap people.

The treasure is the sublimation of the legend. In the real Three Kingdoms era, Zhuge Kongming had no way to use the Eight Arrays of Stone Soldiers by falling from the sky.
