Chapter 34
Since They’re Here, I’ll Kill Them All
[City-wide announcement: Player Shadow (transitioned assassin) and player Lin Bai (warrior) have defeated the S-rank talent wild boss Rhinoceros Spirit and obtained a large amount of treasure. Let us congratulate them!]
[Friend channel/Jin Meng]: I’m done for. My man has been kidnapped!
[City-wide channel/Iron-Blooded Escort]: F*ck, the two ruthless people are together!
[Regional channel/Jin He]: F*ck, don’t run if you have the guts!
“Would you believe me if I said I was just freeloading off the rumors?” Lin Bai asked.
“I’m sorry, I just randomly picked it,” Shadow replied.
She had indeed randomly selected it.
Everyone in Lin Bai’s friend channel was silent.
That was Shadow, the legendary peerless expert who could fight against a hundred people alone!
In the world assassin ranking, Shadow’s ranking was very low because the West was against Xia Country. It was almost in the three digits.
But just look at the famous people she assassinated.
The president and vice president of the Round Table Guild, which was known as the best in the world.
Seven of the top ten guilds in the West had a dozen presidents and dozens of vice presidents, but they couldn’t escape the assassination of the shadow in time!
Of course, Shadow was most famous for assassinating the leader of the Southern Island’s Financial Group Alliance at the entrance of the Southern Island instance dungeon. With one slash, she could turn people upside down, and she could calmly take what the other party dropped and leave.
That was the first time that Shadow had truly shocked the world.
As there were too many players in China, the distribution of resources could not catch up to that of the Southern Island. The first batch of players who rose up from there would come to Xia Country to assassinate them.
When Lin Bai was in school, some of the geniuses in the school had been bribed by the Southern Island. If they didn’t accept the invitation, they would assassinate them.
The top players of the Southern Island returned from Xia Country with red names almost every day.
However, ever since the assassination attempt by Shadow, the red-named guild master of the Financial Group Alliance had dropped his equipment, and they no longer dared to come to Xia Country.
It should be said that Shadow was the number one assassin in everyone’s hearts, the pillar of support in the hearts of the players in Xia Country!
Being able to talk to Shadow was the biggest wish of many players, not to mention forming a party with this lone wolf.
[I’d be so happy to be able to fight monsters with this legendary character,] Shangguan Mengchen said enviously.
Even Su Ling’er, who didn’t pay much attention to celebrities, also sent a message. [If I could see Shadow in real life, I would definitely ask her for an autograph.]
That was all there was to his friends’ comments.
One could only imagine the entire Azure City.
However, there were some people who had seen through Lin Bai’s strength.
“This kid is about to take off.” Some of the presidents of Azure City’s guilds, who had originally wanted to recruit Lin Bai, were mostly second-rate guilds. When they saw this rumor, they immediately fell silent!
They couldn’t pull Lin Bai out.
However, in less than three minutes, another shocking announcement was made.
Lin Bai and Shadow shared the equipment.
[Killed a Level 15 S-rank Rhinoceros Spirit. You received 1,500 experience points.]
[Boss reward: Purple-tier treasure chest x2, power attribute point card (1 point) x1, intelligence attribute point card (1 point) x1, intermediate mana-enhancing intelligence magic stone x2]
[You have received 150,000 gold coins, 5 free attribute points]
Shadow didn’t care about these things, but Lin Bai couldn’t take them all in peace.
“Let’s split it equally. Gold coins and free attribute points are specific. The others can have one each,” Lin Bai said.
Shadow gave up the right to vote.
“I don’t need these. If it wasn’t for the people in the Southern Islands, I wouldn’t want to fight this monster. Take it,” Shadow said. “We still have to fight on the way.”
Lin Bai had no choice but to accept.
However, he didn’t want to take the equipment that they fought together with and leave them with nothing.
After some thought, Lin Bai sent a friend request. “Let’s add each other as friends. I’ll give you whatever you need when I’m done.”
“You mean the reward for clearing the single-player SSS-mode dungeon?” Shadow frowned.
“Yes, the rewards are very good. It’s best to clear the dungeon as soon as possible,” Lin Bai said confidently. “I’m now Level 5. I’ll clear all the SSS-mode dungeons after leaving the novice village as soon as possible.”
He showed off his equipment, but the skill [Eagle Eye] was the most eye-catching.
“It’s not hard to get a set. If no one in the country can get it, they can go to their enemies abroad to get it. This skill is very useful,” Shadow said.
“Is the attack of a hidden class very high?”
Lin Bai thought about it and decided to show off.
“I’ll pass today. Let’s go to a Level 5 dungeon tomorrow when we have time. It’ll be a good time to clear an SSS-mode dungeon for two.” Shadow was a little worried.
Lin Bai was just about to ask what was wrong when he heard her sigh. “I still have to go kill a few foreign players who dared to steal our elite monsters outside Azure City this afternoon. I wonder if they can bring fewer high-level straw substitutes, or else we won’t be able to get much equipment.”
Lin Bai looked at her, pursed his lips, put away his things, and ran down the mountain.
He thought that she was worried about the difficulty of the dungeon, but he didn’t expect her to treat the enemy as a monster and worry that the enemy didn’t bring enough escape items.
‘This is also a way to make a fortune,’ Lin Bai thought. ‘Of course I have to keep the gold coins for the items I get from the dungeon. Where can I get most of the valuable equipment to arm my circle of friends? If you want to live a good life, you have to find foreign players and those Xia Country players who are looking for death to get equipment. As long as you can get some precious items, I think it shouldn’t be a big problem to buy a house.’
At this moment, Shadow disappeared.
She accepted the friend request, but ended the party status.
Lin Bai didn’t mind and walked as if he was a car. When they were about to reach the foot of the mountain, Jin He said loudly, “Block the road here, don’t let them swagger down the mountain!”
Someone even cursed, “Are the people of Xia Country all idiots? When they encounter a strong enemy, they actually think of protecting themselves first. Kick out those traitors and send people to hunt them down. We can’t let them take advantage of our guild. Now, they’re leaving the guild without paying anything.”
Lin Bai chuckled and hid in the grass, immediately changing into his beastmaster identity.
Then, he stood in the middle of the road, with a look that said, “I’m going to cause trouble and leave.”
In just a few minutes, Jin He brought at least twenty to thirty people and rushed up.
Then, they were stunned.
A masked beastmaster stood in the middle of the road with his hands behind his back. It was obvious that they knew each other.
“Who are you?” Jin He said warily.
“Southern Island trash,” Lin Bai said with a smile. “You didn’t even learn the detection skill?”
“F*ck, this guy is that S-rank beastmaster!” One of the beastmasters beside Jin He shouted, “Kill him! He’s the one we’re looking for!”
Jin He was shocked, but his eyes were filled with joy.
They had spent a lot of money in order to find this S-rank talent beastmaster from Xia Country. They had been looking for this person for a few days but could not find him.
But now, he had delivered himself to the door!
Kill him and stop the rise of the beastmasters in Xia Country!
