Two hours ago, in the night falling, martial law continued, and soldiers were guarding every important place, especially the Water Gate strengthened its defense. In addition to the fully armed guards, there were also regular patrol teams. Due to what happened before, all the soldiers who were vigilant dared not slacken at all.

This made the Assassin Assassins, who had been waiting for the opportunity, feel very difficult for a moment. They did not expect that the Molia nobles would react so sharply and immediately strengthened their vigilance. In this way, their chances of receiving the Venetian fleet in the city would be very difficult, but even so, these killers lurking in the dark still had no intention of giving up.

"What should I do now? Leader, have they noticed something?"

"It's okay. Although the other party is already alert, it seems that he has not noticed that the Venetians will raid. These days they have only searched civilian areas."

"But in this case, we will not have the chance to respond. The defense of Shuimen has been significantly strengthened these days."

Although these Assassin Assassins who have been rigorously trained since childhood are superb martial arts, it does not mean that they can break through the layers of protection of the army. If they cannot catch flaws, they will have no choice but to do anything.

Just as the Assassin killers were still hesitating, the assassin leader among them seemed not worried about the failure of the mission, but said calmly: "Don't be anxious, just wait and see, it's our turn to appear later." The man was surprisingly calm, not worried about the Byzantines' strengthened defense.

Seeing this scene, although the suspicious assassins did not understand why the leader was so calm, they still suppressed the questions in their hearts and waited quietly in the darkness.

In the night at Fort Wiscarri, except for the sound of wind and waves from the sea and the footsteps of night patrol soldiers stepping on the stone road, everything was quiet, as silent as a quiet lake. However, in fact, undercurrents were surging below. It was destined that countless people could not fall asleep peacefully tonight. The Assassin Assassins were waiting for the opportunity to start, the Venetians also showed their fangs in the dark, and the Byzantines were patrolling this lonely city in trepidation.

Although most Byzantines did not know that the Venetians were coming, such a tense martial law throughout the city caused a tense atmosphere to spread to everyone and further turned into fear.

Suddenly, fires surged into the sky in the northeast of the castle, and then there was a cry for help from a fire.

"It's on fire! It's on fire!"

The soldiers who were watching the night watch subconsciously looked over and saw that the fire spread in an instant. When it caught fire at this time, everyone who saw this scene was shocked. In this era, a fire was disastrous for a town. Even a metropolis like Constantinople were as fragile as the invasion of flames. When Constantinople fell, the Venetians and Pizza deliberately set fires in order to revenge, and suddenly burned a large area of ​​the magnificent city in Constantinople to white ground.

Therefore, the severity of the fire is no less than that of the enemy invasion. When encountering a fire, the Byzantine soldiers who were originally patrolling immediately put down their work and went to the fire site to prevent the fire from spreading. Although their current mission is to carry out martial law throughout the city, they have to make choices when encountering this situation.

The fire was obviously not small, and soon more soldiers on the checkpoints were transferred to put out the fire, but the defense power of the Water Gate was not used. The Assassin leader, who had been observing this scene secretly, could not help but frown slightly. He was secretly happy when he saw the fire in the city of Wiscari, and knew that it was the people who were supporting the city who attracted the attention of the Byzantines. In fact, they were able to escape the search of Byzantine troops in the city, thanks to the protection of the accomplice who responded to them. But now if these soldiers guarding the Water Gate did not leave, the plan would still be very difficult.

Could it be that an attack was carried out earlier?

Although it was successful once, it was entirely because they saw George Border Boss not being prepared, and this time it was probably not so easy to do it.

But at this point, the Assassin Assassins were unwilling to give up halfway. But just as they were about to take action from the darkness, the sudden sound of horse hooves interrupted their actions.

I saw a Byzantine soldier burned by the flames and shouting on a fast horse: "What are you still standing there? Go and put out the fire! The fire is on Duke Leo's mansion, everyone goes to put out the fire!"

The northeast direction of the fire was the mansion of Leosgros, and the flames had spread. Many soldiers ran to put out the fire. There was no more manpower, so they had to call on the manpower here.

"Okay, let's go now." When the Duke's Mansion was on fire, the officer guarding the Water Gate nodded quickly. After all, it was the residence of the nobles, so he did not dare to ignore the order, so he left a few people to guard and immediately took the rest of the people to put out the fire. At this moment, they could only put down their work and rushed to put out the fire.

Seeing this scene, the Assassin Assassins, who were already preparing to take action, finally breathed a sigh of relief. As the garrison troops running over to put out the fire gradually faded away, the assassin leader finally showed a satisfied smile. Now no one could interfere with them, and the remaining few soldiers were not at all trouble.

"Do it!"

The opportunity was rare, the assassin leader shouted, and then these black killers jumped up like a terrifying geese and rushed towards the few guards who were unprepared. These elite killers seemed to have fallen to the Byzantine defenders as if they were rising and falling. It was not until this time that these guards realized the arrival of danger, but it was too late.

"What?! Ah—" Before he could even shout out a warning to his companions, the guards' throats were cut open by these killers. With a clean and neat knife, the Byzantine soldiers died without even feeling the pain.
