Infinite Transmigration Starting from Violet

This setup doesn't look like tracking; it looks more like escorting someone.

"Who are those people?" Yakiel asked in a low voice. "They seem to have very sharp eyes."

Yakiel asked A-Tui, Lu Ye, and Millison the same questions.

“They are the children of platinum,” Smarag said.

"The Son of Platinum?!"

A-Tui and Ya-Kir were both startled.

Those slender, beautiful women were actually the sons of Platinum?

“You haven’t forgotten, have you? There are two kinds of Platinum Children. One kind is short and chubby, with all four limbs intact but unable to speak,” Smarag said. “The other kind is similar to a human, but the legs of this Platinum Child gradually degenerate as they age, so they choose to team up with the wolves of the snowfield.”

"Oh, now that you mention it, I do remember." A-Tui recalled.

“Don’t worry,” Torina turned around, “these Platinum Children are part of the Guardians of the Sacred Tree.”

"Is it because of Loretta?" Lu Ye thought of the woman on horseback guarding the royal moon-viewing spot.

"Yes, she originally served the Kalia royal family, but after her husband ran away, that woman Renara became despondent. Seeing no hope of saving her people, she came to us... to the Sacred Tree."

"So, those Platinum Children on the outer perimeter are all protecting the Sacred Tree?"

“Yes,” Torina nodded and said, “we’ve arrived.”

The wind and snow gradually subsided, and visibility gradually improved.

What appeared before them was a small town.

Seeing that Torina and the others had arrived at their destination, the Platinum Sons gradually withdrew.

The group entered the town, which was deserted, but there was an icy blue seal above the stone steps.

“We’ve arrived, Ceremonial Town,” Torina said. “Once we activate the mechanism to enter another space and light the candles on the four maiden statues above the town, the path to the Sacred Tree will open.”

"Another space?"

“The principle is not complicated,” Torina said. “Just think of it as an alternative sealed prison.”

The group arrived at a small square in town and activated the Little Devil statue.

The group immediately entered another space. The town of Dianyi had not changed, but it was shrouded in a layer of purple mist, resembling the sealed prison, but much larger.

"Then, where are the candles for the four maiden statues?" A-Tui asked.

"Three are on the clock tower, and one is on the ground."

After Torina explained it to him, A-Tui easily found the place.

Just as she was thinking that this was similar to the mechanism in Seria Town, Lu Ye suddenly pulled her away.

At the same time, Akir and Smarag attacked simultaneously, unleashing both radiant stone magic and dragon breath backward.

"What...what happened?" A-Tui was stunned.

"Oh my, one, two, three, four, five, six... Really, we don't usually have many guests, but when they come, it's quite lively."

A woman's voice, tinged with laughter, rang out, and two assassins clad in light black hooded armor and sheer veils appeared, toying with twisted daggers that gleamed with a black and red luster.

—The Black Knife Assassin!

Chapter 668 The Invisible Assassin

Black-knife assassin.

Together with Lani, the Moon Princess, they created the origin event that triggered the subsequent turmoil in the borderlands—the Night of Conspiracy.

The eldest prince of the Golden Clan, Godwin, was killed, becoming the source of the Deadborn.

Furthermore, the Eternal Queen, enraged by the death of her offspring, smashed the Elden Ring, leading to the outbreak of the Shattered War.

The border region is now a mess. Fundamentally, Lani bears some responsibility, as does Raccard as an accomplice, and the Black Knife assassins who killed Gold Godwin with the stolen Predestined Death also bear some responsibility.

But Lu Ye never expected that they would appear in this place.

"Did you also place these guys here?" Lu Ye asked Torina.

"How is this possible? These bitches killed my brother!" Torina's expression was not good.

“That’s true, otherwise they wouldn’t have attacked A-Tui,” Lu Ye said.

In fact, Torina and Godwin had a pretty good relationship.

She and Godwin exchanged prayers, and after Godwin's death, she built a shrine for him to pray that her brother could die a natural death.

"So this is the Black Knife Assassin? It doesn't seem that powerful, except for being a bit agile!" Yakiel was eager to try it out.

“Surrender honestly, and the great Radiant Dragon might spare your lives,” Smarag said.

"Heh, I've never seen a dragon look like this before, neither human nor dragon," the black-knife assassins chuckled. "Just tell the truth, tell me you turned into dragons because you used too much of the Dragon's Blessing power, and I won't do anything about it! After all, you two will turn into those ugly, fat earth dragons in the future, and I'd rather not touch you!"

“Very well,” Yakir’s eyes flashed with rage, “How dare you insult us as earth dragons! You’ll be torn to shreds by your claws, you bastard!”

"Wait, before we start fighting, can we get one thing straight?" A-Tui said. "You Black Knife guys only wanted to kill Godwin, right? Now that you've achieved your goal, why are you doing this in a place like this?"

“We’re just staying here to kill any fading ones that try to move forward,” Black Knife said. “If you want to reach the Sacred Tree, you’ll have to step over our corpses.”

"Really?" Lu Ye asked suspiciously. "Are you sure you're not just wandering around here because you can't find the mechanism to reach the Sacred Tree?"

"W-what?" Black Knife paused, then roared, "Don't underestimate us! How could we not know that igniting the mechanism in town leads to the Sacred Tree?"

“Exactly!” said another black-bladed man. “We could easily go to the Sacred Tree, but there’s no need!”

"So, you're going to stop us no matter what?" Millison drew her knife.

"Six against two, you guys are pretty brave too!" Yakiel laughed in exasperation.

"There's no point in saying more. We were able to kill the eldest prince of the Golden Clan, so dealing with a few Faded Ones and two Earth Dragons is a piece of cake."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Yakiel and Smarag launched their attack.

Yakir exhaled scorching dragon breath, and the intense heat caused the surrounding air to rise sharply.

Smarag used Radiant Stone magic; a single Radiant Stone flying around possessed power comparable to that of magic academy professors. As a great Radiant Stone Dragon, she didn't even need a staff; the Radiant Stones on her body were the perfect medium for casting spells.

Millison then circled around from both sides, preparing to launch a flanking attack.

Since the other party has already shown hostility, let's defeat them first.

As for why the Black Knives are here, that's a question we can ask them slowly through interrogation.

Torina, Luye, and A-Tui did not take any action.

The former is because there is currently no force capable of direct combat.

Although she was a god, Michaela abandoned her original god form in order to avoid being defeated by Mongols.

The latter was due to Melina's advice.

"Since someone has already taken the lead, there's no need to make a move right away. Observing the Black Knife Gang is the best course of action."

These are Melina's exact words, and Lu Ye thinks they make a lot of sense.

By keeping a backup plan, they can not only observe the strength of the legendary Black Blades who were said to be able to assassinate Godwin, but also provide timely assistance when others are in danger.

After all, the Holy Snowfield is not within the range of the Giant Snow Mountain.

Faced with the combined attack of the two dragons and the swordsman, the two black-blade assassins retreated simultaneously.

Although they called Yakir and Smarag "earth dragons," the moment these two dragons made their move, the Black Blades knew that the dragons before them were the real deal.

Perhaps due to their form, their power is greatly reduced, but even so, the Black Blade Warriors cannot withstand them head-on.

After all, assassins are relatively fragile, which is a general consensus.

Moreover, this is indeed the case; the armor worn by the Black Blades is not for defense, but has another purpose.

For example, when they walk in the snow, they leave no footprints and make no sound.

If Lu Ye hadn't sensed the danger, and if Yakiel and Smarag hadn't smelled the unfamiliar scent, A-Tui would likely have been slit in the throat.

They leaped lightly, as if gravity could not completely affect them. Although it looked like they were just touching the ground with their toes and there was no sense of power, they could float backward for more than ten meters, as light as wild geese.

As they moved away from the dragon's breath and avoided the radiant stone magic attack, the two black-clad swordsmen suddenly scattered something.

It seemed to be a transparent powder with a strange smell. When mixed in with the snow, it was completely invisible!

Millison strode through the snow, closing in on the black-knife assassin. Her long, red hair, tied up, danced in the wind, and the long sword in her hand flashed out in a sharp arc!

The black-clad warriors brandished their curved daggers, marveling at Millison's bravery in charging into their backyard even without two dragons.

But they soon realized that the red-haired girl in front of them was not just showing off. As she approached, her toes touched the ground, and the long sword flashed.

After getting a prosthetic arm, Millison's swordsmanship was no less impressive than Lu Ye's.

Lu Ye was initially quite surprised, but after realizing that Millison was part of Marlenelia's will, he quickly understood.

The two black-clad men clearly hadn't anticipated that Millison alone would possess such a fierce offensive, and their daggers were obviously struggling to cope.

The two acted decisively, and the daggers in their hands emitted a black and red luster!

Torina's eyes narrowed: "Fragments of a destined death..."

"Did the Black Blades kill the demigods using that?" Lu Ye asked.

"Not entirely. Those were just a very small number of fragments attached to the blade. There must be a larger piece in the hands of one of the Black Knife Assassins."

"So... does that mean we only need to steal the Black Knife Assassin's fragment to deal with the Golden Tree? Wasn't it said that the Primal Life Forge became the Golden Tree because there was a beast inside? If we have the Fated Death fragment, wouldn't we be able to deal with that watchdog if we went to the Golden Tree?"

A-Tui clapped his hands, as if he had come up with a brilliant idea.

"You're overthinking it." Torina gave him a look of pity for an idiot. "Talking about toxicity without considering dosage is just being irresponsible. Killing a demigod might only require a fragment of the Fated Death, but dealing with the Beast of Elden? It's impossible without completely taking over the Fated Death!"

The black-knife assassins flicked their daggers, unleashing two streaks of black and red light.

Sensing the danger, Millison switched from offense to defense, slowing down to create distance between herself and the black-clad figures. She deflected the black and red light from their blades with her longsword.

Just as she created distance between herself and the black-clad men, a figure rushed forward at high speed, leaving a trail of snow in its wake.

That was Akiel. Even in human form, she was only about two meters tall, but as a dragon, her strength was still formidable, and the wings on her back were no joke either.

She swooped down from the sky, approaching the black blade at an extremely fast speed, surrounded by ten enormous shining swords.

As a Radiant Stone Dragon, melee combat is not Smarag's forte.
