Chapter 276 Lao Dong XZ acquired a lot of private goods

At this time, the top of Dawn Fortress.

There are two figures, one in front and one behind, constantly shuttling on the city wall, one escaping and the other chasing.

They didn't stop until a while later.

Located on the top of a castle rampart, two figures stood on both sides, about ten meters away from each other, each staring closely at the other.

The wind blowing at this time caused Catalina's red hair to sway slightly, while her pair of bright green eyes shone with an indifferent luster and a trace of undisguised murderous intent.

On the opposite side, Duke Kao slowly raised the hand holding the dagger, as if he was ready to attack.

It had to be said that Catalina's growth was indeed surprising to him.

He no longer has any advantage in terms of speed.

Since you can't escape by running, this life-and-death battle is inevitable.

"In the end, only one of us can return to Noxus."

Duke Kao calmly accepted this fact, and then laughed: "I have the token, take it back, and you will be the strongest assassin."

"Stop talking nonsense."

Catalina snorted coldly, took a quick step, and rushed forward.

The next second, Duke Kao's figure also moved.

The two of them fought together in the blink of an eye. The daggers each held contained infinite murderous intent. The two figures flashed back and forth on the top of the steep fortress.

The battle venue is no longer an inner room with four walls. There are no restrictions on the venue. In addition, the battle of life and death requires the two of them to attack with all their strength.

Performing Shunpo is also a skill that consumes a lot of physical energy. There is no doubt that the one who exhausts his physical energy first will end up in the end.

When victory cannot be won through skills, the next thing to fight for is strength.

Therefore, with only one foot standing on the top of the spire, Katarina and Duke Cao began a sword-fight.

"Ding Dong! Ding Dong!"

The four sharp daggers collided continuously, making crisp sounds and bursts of sparks.

Generally speaking, duels between assassins often result in a winner within a few moves.

However, at this time, the father and daughter, who were like strangers, had been fighting for more than a minute. They were in a stalemate and seemed to be equally matched.

Soon they all realized a problem.

They were all taught by the same master, so they can’t break the moves!

"Have you not discovered yet? All your moves were taught by me, and the limits you can reach were all given to you by me."

Duke Kao's expression at this time did not look like he was highly nervous in a life-and-death battle. Instead, he sneered relaxedly: "And I am proficient in dozens of assassination techniques that you don't know. So what do you think?" You may be my opponent. Your physical strength has been exhausted a lot, so it’s time to end it.”

He could see that Catalina had used up a lot of energy, even though he had done the same.

But in this state, your winning rate is even greater!

His attack method suddenly changed, each knife became unexpected, and multiple afterimages of daggers appeared with every swing, making it difficult to distinguish between real and fake, extremely ferocious.

Catalina narrowly dodged one deadly attack after another. Every time the blade almost scraped her skin, she could feel a biting chill.

She kept retreating, and suddenly her feet were empty, and she was already at the edge of the tower.

She could only jump back hard, and her body was in mid-air, with no place to draw strength from.

In the next second, Duke Kao threw the dagger, and one dagger flew towards him, but turned into multiple daggers in mid-air.

Every dagger with cold light is real and carries fatal danger.

"Old Dong XZ has a lot of private goods."

Catalina didn't have time to think too much, and she teleported to the other end.

However, this behavior seemed to have been predicted by Duke Kao. Before he could gain a foothold, dozens more daggers flew towards him.

Katarina's previously spent energy had already made it impossible for her to activate Shunpo continuously, so she did not hesitate and quickly took the path of the ten daggers into her eyes and found a space where she could dodge.

Then jump across.

Her slender and voluptuous figure turned twice in mid-air, and dozens of daggers flew by in a dangerous way.

After landing, Catalina did not hesitate, dodged and distanced herself.

"As expected of my daughter, I thought you would die just now."

Dukecao held the dagger in his hand, showing a rather satisfied expression, and looked at Catalina as if he were looking at a work of art.

This look made Catalina extremely disgusted. She had not been treated as a "person" since she was a child. She had always been an exhibit in his eyes.

The next second, a beautiful smile broke out on her face: "But I am indeed very grateful to you. You taught me a lot. Do you still remember what you once said to me? An assassin is assassinating a target. When the time comes, you must use all means, and kindness to the enemy is cruelty to yourself."

"Yes, this sentence is indeed what I said to you, so please go to hell, my daughter."

The dagger wielded by Ducao was merciless. He didn't mind destroying his own artwork with his own hands, or at worst, making a new one.

With this thought in mind, he was ready to unleash his final killing move without reservation.

However, his hand that raised the dagger suddenly froze in mid-air.

Immediately afterwards, he felt the moment his body moved, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated for a moment, as if he had received some kind of impact, and he was losing control of his body.

With a hint of disbelief in his eyes, Duke Kao glanced at the wound on his arm and instantly understood what had happened.

I am poisoned!

This is where he found it unbelievable.

His body was just like Katarina's. He had undergone inhuman training since he was a child, and he had been developing his ability to resist poison since then.

The purpose is to prevent the enemy from poisoning during necessary battles.

Now, his body can be said to be invulnerable to all poisons.

However, he would actually be poisoned at this moment?

The next second, a sharp pain felt like a giant hand squeezing his heart, spreading to every corner of his body and completely crushing his last resistance.

Compared to the physical pain, Duke Kao felt a sense of despair of death at this moment.

"It seems the medicine has finally taken effect."

Catalina was no longer vigilant, relaxed her body, and looked at Dukecao who looked in disbelief: "The effect of this poison is enough for you to eat a pot. I have experienced it myself."

"I see."

Duke Kao muttered to himself, his body completely losing control and becoming extremely stiff.

He leaned back and fell from the top toward the ground.

With a "pop", his body hit the ground heavily.

The next second, Catalina jumped from the tower and stood in front of him. She looked down at Duke Cao who was lying on the ground: "Before you die, is there anything else you want to say?"

Ducao couldn't even show his expression at the moment. He didn't show fear in his eyes in front of death because he had calmed down.

Anyone will be afraid in the face of death, even if he has killed countless people, he is no exception as he is used to seeing death, but he is already ready to face death at this moment.

Looking at Catalina's beautiful and outstanding face, he saw the determination to kill him in those eyes. Duke Kao opened his mouth and said: "In a real battle, some enemies will not poison you. Chance."

"I know, so this won't happen next time."

Katerina responded coldly.

"Really, then congratulations, Katarina, for becoming the strongest assassin."

Dukecao's words did not satisfy Catalina.

She stared at him coldly: "When death is imminent, don't you have anything else to say?"

"Do you want to hear me begging for mercy?" Duke Kao seemed to be laughing: "It is my fate to be killed by my own work, and I have nothing to accept."

Catalina showed an unhappy expression, her eyes seemed to be burning with flames, and suddenly she smiled with relief: "To be honest, before this, what I wanted most was your approval. As if you just need to say that sentence to me , Catalina, you are the best, so the scars and pain on my body are worth it."

There is nothing wrong with admitting this. She spent the first half of her life working hard towards this goal.

It seemed that as long as she could satisfy Duke Kao, she was not even afraid to jump from the top of a building more than ten meters high.

Even if she fell and broke all over her body, she still had to get up and smile at Duke Kao.

"What now?"

"Now I realize that getting your approval is useless. In other words, it doesn't matter whether it's you or anyone else. I used to be just a frog in the well, but is this ridiculous? It's not funny, because it's not caused by me. Yes, but you."

Catalina stared at Duke Kao with emotionless eyes: "So I want to tell you that my life will no longer be controlled by you. From now on, I will live for myself."

Does it make sense to tell him this? A man who never felt a trace of guilt for his biological daughter even until his death.

Will you feel sad because of these few words?

Won't.

But Catalina said it anyway because she didn't care if the man listened.

She just wanted to say it, wanted to get out the words that she had been holding back for a long time.

Not vomiting, not happy.

To her, it just made sense.

Sure enough, after finishing speaking, Catalina felt much better, and a knot that had been stuck in her heart seemed to be suddenly lifted.

Ducao did not respond to Katarina's words, and turned his gaze from her to the blue sky of Demacia, muttering to himself: "I really didn't expect that one day I would die in a foreign country."

Katarina adjusted her mentality at this moment, looked at him and asked: "Why did you agree to Darkwill come to Demacia? Don't you know that he just wants you to fail in the assassination, so that he can use it to deal with the family and Assassin's Guild?"

In Noxus, the forces are scattered, although they are all ruled by one general, Darkwill.

However, among his subordinates, there are inevitably some powerful ones who threaten this position.

There is no doubt that General Ducao is one of them.

And he not only controls the Duke Kao family, but also many smaller powerful families, as well as the Assassin's Association.

The combination of these makes Duke Kao's status in Noxus extraordinary.

Especially the Assassin's Association he commands, it can be said that just mentioning his name makes many people fearful.

Darkwill regards power as his destiny, and sent Duke Kao this time just to find a reason to attack his forces.

"Do you think the outcome will be different between agreeing and disobeying?"

Ducao said calmly: "I naturally know that Darkwill is afraid of the family power and the Assassin Association, but if I openly disobey the order, he will also have reason to attack."

Catalina did not simply listen to his words: "With your personality, you can think of many solutions, but you chose the one that is easiest to find a reason for. Do you think I will believe you?" Is it also because of the helplessness of the family?"

"I do it for my family, but there are also other reasons."

Duke Kao's tone was calm, as if the severe pain in his body did not exist at all: "Your mother and sister seem to be working for a mysterious organization. I used the excuse of disappearance to find out the organization behind them. "

Catalina frowned slightly when she mentioned her mother and sister: "So what do you know?"

"Since you can track me to Demacia, why don't you investigate the rest yourself?"

Duke Kao smiled, as if he didn't intend to say anything.

Catalina also smiled: "With your character, if you really found evidence that they were working for this so-called mysterious organization, I'm afraid you would have already taken action. To put it bluntly, you actually don't know much."

"Then it's up to you to investigate."

Duke Kao did not deny it. Then he felt that the vitality of his body was passing away, and his face became paler. He continued: "There is another reason. I came to Demacia to find the runes."

Catalina still frowned, seeming to be thinking.

"There are rumors that the rune is a power that makes everyone crazy. Having it is equivalent to possessing supreme authority and power."

Duke Kao said quietly: "This is something that even Darkwill covets. I accidentally learned about a rune, which is in Demacia. I came here to find it. "

Catalina asked: "So you found it?"

"If I find it, the person lying here won't be me."

Duke Kao said calmly.

Catalina was speechless and felt that her question was unqualified.

Ducao said slowly: "But I am sure that he is in the royal city of Demacia."

Catalina was ready to ask some more questions.

Suddenly, the ground shook, and an extremely violent and terrifying power aura came from the direction of the inner room.

Even from a distance, Catalina felt the power and oppression of this force.

She looked around and saw a surge of orange-yellow energy. She couldn't help but stare blankly for a second: "Is this what you're talking about?"

I’m going to update the first one today. I’m watching the game. It’s 8 o’clock after I finish watching. It’s too late to read the second update.
