Status: Killer.I turned to the second opponent. He thrust the sword up to the hilt into Laska. She screamed in pain, but did not die. It is understandable, apparently her skill worked again - life on the verge. Only now the girl herself is no longer able to fight back.A clot of flame hit the unprotected neck. The space expanded sharply, the skin burst, blood spattered in a red stream like from a barrel of wine. The warrior fell to the ground, his hand hurriedly tried to clamp the wound, but blood flowed through his fingers. I am already a “murderer”, so there is no point in leaving this person alive. So I created another ball. Fear appeared in the eyes of the enemy when he saw the approach of the ball, and then he hit his forehead. The attack was fatal, the head burst, splashing red around.Attention. System Message: Tim killed Grot.I hastily turned to the girl who was frozen by the tree and looked with horror at the dead."Here," I said, tossing her the potion.Weasel caught him o

I turned around.- What's going on here?Alex is still standing at the edge of the clearing.- Don't you understand? We're here to retrieve the artifact.- So, how do corporations work?- Corporations? No. Everything is easier and more difficult. Black markets, where you and I sold the loot, do not just exist. Someone has to cover them. It so happened that I have been working with Yuji for a long time. He often brings in new players with whom I start doing dark things. Bandits are also interested in the rift and items from it, you know.The warriors froze around, five of them, all clearly level ten or eleven. Plus an archer to the side. Of course, I have a rebirth, but even with it, it’s not a guarantee that I can handle an experienced group of hunters. They are in no hurry to attack, waiting for Alex's order.I looked over at Alex. We have known him for many years. Before he got married, we even went clubbing together looking for girls for the night. I visited him, was one of the few

"The same ones that attacked me?" I would rip them myself. Everything will work out, because I have an ace up my sleeve.The girl looked at me suspiciously.- Well, what is it?I took out a keg from the magical vault, opened the lid. Since I have given a name to this substance, if someone looks at it, it is immediately highlighted. For the locals, this name means nothing, but Laska's eyes widened.- It's ten kilos. But in terms of power, it surpasses ordinary gunpowder one and a half times. So we actually have fifteen kilograms of gunpowder. Explosives of this level would blow the goblin chief to pieces.- Where did you get it? she whispered.- I'm an alchemist. And I have many secrets. So, can you help me?She thought for a few moments, and then reluctantly said:- The artifact and the problems associated with it do not interest me. But here's a drop from the leader of the goblins and monsters there - I don't mind getting it. But on top of another fifty thousand credits.- Zenami wil

Six goblins fell to the ground dead, and three more with serious wounds, in the form of broken arms and legs, fell with a squeal and began to crawl away.The rest, seeing the consequences of the attack and the new enemy, stopped abruptly, I jumped out to meet, immediately formed another black ball. The goblins, assessing the consequences, abruptly turned around and rushed, it was, away, but I had already cast a spell. It is clear that they do not shine with special intelligence and did not guess that if they run away, then in different directions. So the black ball hit in the back one of the goblins that were running away in a tight group. There was another distortion of space, torn bodies fell to the ground.Weasel attacked the remaining two. The axes sang a terrible song, and the heads of the goblins fell to the ground. Then came the turn of the wounded.In total we killed fourteen enemies. For each, I got fifty minus five experience (because of the difference in level) and 80 zen.

- Weasel, locomotive! As soon as everyone gathers, lead to the boiler, - I shouted after the girl.A couple of arrows whizzed past my face, I glanced at the archers for a moment, they looked in my direction with hatred. Let them, as long as they are not able to inflict damage on me, then you definitely should not pay attention to them.The girl, meanwhile, ran into a crowd of goblins, seriously wounded several, her legs and arms fell to the sides. Everyone in the camp rushed to Laska. There are about thirty of them. Weasel quickly rushed to the side, dragging the crowd with her. I formed another gravity rupture spell.As soon as the girl ran past a hefty cauldron, he threw a ball at a thick stick, as thick as an arm, to which the cauldron hanging over the fire is attached. There was a crack. In general, the stick was already tense, however, it could withstand the weight of a cauldron of water, but as soon as I broke it well, it could not stand it. With a crunch and a crack, the stick

The girl braked sharply, darted behind a bush, I did not understand what had happened, but she sharply pulled her sleeve. Unable to stay on his feet, he flopped next to her.- What are you...- Quiet!I paused, followed her gaze. Two goblins are walking towards us. In the hands of a torch that creates around them two dim light spots.- Patrolmen? Something new.- Here and goblins stronger. Take a closer look, - whispered Weasel.Indeed, goblins are a head taller than usual, and stronger. Light from torches leaves glare on metal breastplates. Goblins have small maces with sharp spikes on their belts. They both walk slowly, talking about something.Weasel, meanwhile, drew her axes. Monsters are coming our way, and we have nowhere to hide, except behind a bush. There are several steps to the nearest tree. The fact that our movement will be noticed is one hundred percent."Wait," I whispered.A black ball began to form in his hand. The space was drawn towards him. As soon as the goblins w

- Come on, get up! What hung?Glancing up, I saw the girl stick out halfway, her fingers clenched on my wrist. With my other hand, I grabbed her hand, the girl exhaled sharply and pulled it towards herself with force, the wall in front of my eyes ran down, and after a few seconds I found myself on a flat stone surface. I am no longer surprised at the girl’s strength, she has a “duelist” class, so both dexterity and physique are pumped in.- Enough to lie, quickly run, - came the hissing of the girl.Jumping to his feet, he looked around.To the right there is a hubbub, several goblins began to peer into the darkness behind the walls, apparently trying to make out the sentries sent earlier. The entrance to the dungeon is guarded by a goblin, his partner went to see what happened there. And now the guard does not even look in our direction, all his attention is directed to the brethren crowded on the wall.We jumped down into the yard, dashed across the distance to the keep. The guard,

He turned sharply, trying to throw the girl off the back of her neck, but she put one ax into the magical space and clung to the armor. The hobgoblin spun around, tried to grab Weasel with his hand, but nothing happened, she deftly dodged. And then she slashed at the head. Thick skin and bone saved the hobgoblin, and the ax plunged barely a few millimeters into the head. A figure of 80 damage appeared above the goblin, he squealed.I stepped back, breathing heavily. The world shakes before my eyes. Pain ripples from the shoulder. I noticed a message that the hand was critically wounded and now I can’t move it for a hundred seconds.While the hobgoblin squeals and tries to throw Weasel off, I removed almost all the torches from magical space, dumped them in a pile. A strong flame shot up, illuminating the area. A black ball formed in the left hand, to which all space was drawn. The fire from the burning torches piled in a heap reached for the ball. I brought it closer. The flame seemed

- And if you just give the crossbow? Yura murmured.- On the one hand, the possession of this crossbow is really a big hemorrhoids, - Genghis Khan nodded, - and on the other hand, incredible luck and a chance to get out of this world twenty years earlier. But in order to take advantage of this chance, you don’t have to “wait for the weather by the sea”, but take “hands in feet” and go, as these boobies say - swing.“But it doesn’t seem so bad here,” Zhenya said thoughtfully. “At least as long as the said Guardians are pleased with you.Genghis Khan shook his head.- You know, I envy you a little: the first ten years in this world are in many ways a happy time, albeit full of severe trials. But man is a complex creature, not only pain and suffering move us forward. With every year spent in this place, indescribable nostalgia, longing, longing for the place lying there ahead will grow stronger in you.

- Zheka, Chechens in the city! Gather brother!True, what does the philosopher have to do with it and where to take the mentioned lads, the gopnik did not specify.Genghis Khan sighed, snapped a cunning crossbow from his belt, put the weapon on the bed next to Tuen, and he himself took a free chair, of which there were several in the room, put it next to the bed, sat down and, raising his hand, waved to everyone:- Hi.Kolya, meanwhile, was blushing like cancer, realizing that he was slightly frostbitten.- Valuable advice "on the track", - Genghis Khan continued, - if the Guardians offer something, it is better to agree. But do not rush to do what is proposed according to their scenario: these guys will definitely try to drag you into the very ass. Try to work with your head and go to your goal in your own way. Which, of course, will not always succeed.What are martial skills? - Zhenya immediately clarified the information on the reward for the quest.Genghis Khan, without getting u

Your mother's time in this world is coming to an end.Guardians offer you a task:Reach Ozatorga in the company of the lost ones who will leave the city in the near future, and we, the Guardians, will ensure your meeting with your mother.The consequence accompanying the acceptance of the task is the acquisition of a special status, the temporary inclusion of lost souls in the system.1) Accept the task.2) Reject the job.**Of course, she should have consulted with her father, but Erita immediately realized that all this was superfluous, since she made her choice at the moment when she read the text to the end. Having experimented a little, she chose the desired menu item:**1) Accept the task.**In vain did the girl think that her misadventures were over, the event that happened a moment later divided her whole life into before and after. And although the Guardians made every effort available to them to facilitate the process of transformation, the lousy experience was far beyond

Dietrich, having analyzed his part of the work, was frankly depressed. Since Paul and Genghis Khan got formidable, but, in fact, single targets, and his opponents "spread" over a very large area. Fortunately, this square was constantly squeezed by the city guard, but they also added new hemorrhoids - as if not to knock down someone outside and not to spoil valuable property.Without hindrance, passing the place of deployment of the defenders of the city, the German hurriedly walked out to the port facilities. Stopping in the middle of a dark port street, he assessed the situation. At the moment, the "front line" between the pirates and the defenders of the city passed in a place where hangars and warehouses tightly adjacent to each other ended and residential buildings began. The port was a semi-closed territory, into which several wide streets led, but at the same time, various small streets and lanes were completely absent. At night, guards were stationed at the exits of the port, w

Genghis Khan was rapidly approaching the western coast. Having parted with his comrades, he did not want to go down to the ground and was now moving towards his goal using exclusively the city roofs. In practice, jumping on tiles had two subtleties: first, it was necessary not to ruin the roof during repulsion, and second, it was necessary not to ruin it when landing. The one mentioned was bad. And the man consoled himself with the hope that for the sake of a great cause, a mountain of broken tiles would be forgiven him. Having shortened the path in this way and at the same time assessed the situation in the city, he very soon found himself on the coast.Here, standing by the embankment, Genghis Khan pulled back his sleeve from his wrist, revealing to the night an elegant silver bracelet covered with dense rows of reddish runes. Giving the artifact a mental command, he began to patiently peer into the darkness of the sea. Finally, the pirate ship snapped back with another salvo, revea

Fizruk disappeared. In his place, another, already middle-aged actor from a film about a sophisticated cannibal appeared, who ate other actors and especially loved gelatinous brains. And Yura was afraid of this actor.- Why not? The task of the Final Set is to help you get through the path to the end, to give strength that is inaccessible at the current level of development. Our meeting was not without fate, but if she drags you, then she only gives me strong advice, so don’t be arrogant. There was a place and commonality: it's funny - you and I are similar in a certain set of emanations, as a lion and a kitten are similar. And the last of the weighty ones - for some reason I wanted to play on the nerves of Vega and Zegero. Vega is the bearded man who gave the green light to your possession of the Fourth Treasure of Darkness. He and Zegero run the show here. Vega is nothing less than a galaxy, but not the one you think of. Zegero is the largest black hole in observable space. And a ra

- Good question, bad answer. Your shattered head will provoke her into attacking the blackbeard. She will snatch out a cunning stiletto that is hidden in her belt and try to drive twenty centimeters of death under the shoulder blade of the leader of the pirates. But, alas, the weight categories are too different: a short blow, and after the third bullet today. Trite, sad, but true.- Can I do something?!The "actor" thoughtfully touched his chin with his hand, and then issued:- And why, maybe it's better to go home, at the computer ...- How is it, home? Yura didn't understand.- Yes, it's very simple. Here you are, and here you are at home, celebrating your luck from the bow knocked out of the boss, lazily brushing off offers to sell it, or join a new community of players more worthy of you. What is it called, “flock” it seems, but no, in another way - “clan”. Well, what a mess in your Sharapov head, - and Kukuruz looked at the hitman with a look, as if he was going to sew a shirt f

Pondering the plan of action, Yura became despondent. The reason for despondency, as is often the case, lay in the details. First, the current fence turned out to be quite high, about the height of a man, and metal spiers stuck out on top of this fence, not very sharp, but a piece of hoodie can easily be left. Secondly, the road between the residence and the territory of the garden, in which the “guerrilla-scout” sat down, was very well lit. And now, carefully parting the branches of the bush, the young man clearly saw the bustle of armed men in the courtyard of the building he needed.“What did I get here at all! Although no, it’s clear what’s useful: it’s likely that Erita really has problems. The question is, how can I, a fool, solve these problems ... ”the hit man groaned to himself and began to think about how, if not to solve the problems, then at least not to produce new ones.Alas, the thinker did not generate anything worthwhile.

In a pant, another kilometer and a half flew by, during which it became clear that there was not so much left of the former Yura in him, at least bodily. He couldn’t run more than a kilometer before, and “run” is not quite the right word, “puff” was more suitable. However, the current Yura was far from the condition of a super hero, which is why he was incredibly out of breath.Suddenly, "the scenery changed" and the young man ended up in the area of posh mansions of wealthy citizens. The mansions were located in even rows, which were separated from the road by low bars. The road itself was illuminated by frequent, but not very bright gas lamps. A sort of holiday village of extra-class. And now, only two hundred meters separated from the beginning of the nobility district to the residence of the lord of the hitman. Just run a little forward, turn left and go out to the large ornate gates of the monastery of the local ruler. What Yura immediately decided to do. And he almost fell i
