Chapter 138: Chapter 138: Despicable Foreigners (Seeking Recommendations, Collections, and Comments)

Since the[Chang’an Plague], Li Changhe had had the chance to upgrade the[Skill EX].

Li Changhe had planned to upgrade either[Octopole Fist: B]or[Hengdao: B] to EX. He believed it would greatly improve his close combat abilities. But after fighting with members of[Sun Halo], Li Changhe felt that there was still room for improvement.

For example, the gun-wielding[Sun Halo]member in the elevator had a body like a soft-bodied creature, which could buffer the force of fists and blunt weapons. Even the[Fierce Tiger Climbing Hard]was neutralized by him.

Not to mention the[Sun Halo]sniper who could calculate the opponent’s attack patterns. If it wasn’t for Yun Ting’s help, Li Changhe would have had a rough time defeating him.

Simply upgrading close combat[Skills]was not enough against those strange[Skills].

Moreover, the effect of[Great Wall Mountain Armor]was to enhance close combat[Skills]. With the armor on, Li Changhe’s Octopole Fist and Hengdao skills reached A. He was already quite strong. In ancient battlefields, this skill level would make him a top-notch warrior.

If the opponent has strange[Skills], even if Li’s abilities were enhanced to the level of Li Shuwen and Pei Min, it would still be futile if the opponent couldn’t be hit.

Li Changhe then turned his attention to other[Skills].

Riding A, upgrading to EX? Worthless, right? It’s not like he could make a car fly, right?

He didn’t even consider things like Regular Script and Heluo Sound, as they were of no help in combat.

Finally, Li Changhe found a suitable target in the long[Skill column]- Cold Reading Skill: E. (For those who forgot, you can check out Chapter 5)

When Li Changhe helped the fortune-telling master at his stall, the old man casually taught him some basics.

And the advantage of a[Player]is the ability to quickly master a skill. After upgrading the Cold Reading Skill to EX, Li Changhe could combine it with[Eagle’s Demon Eye]to quickly observe the opponent’s expressions and thus obtain useful information.

This is just a small part; during fights, Cold Reading Skill could also have unexpected effects.

As Li Changhe wiggled his fingers to show the number five, the mermaid man showed subtle changes in his expression and clenched his weapon tightly.

Li Changhe realized that the opponent’s[Task]was a five-on-five battle. And since they didn’t attack him immediately, this meant that the[Task]was unexpected for the mermaid’s side as well.

For example, the sacrifice of the two[Great Wall Players]resulted in two extra[Players]for the mermaid side. The[Task Goal]of[Evolution Game]would not change. Even if there were ten[Players]on the mermaid side, the human[Players]still only needed to kill the original number of opponents.

Of course, all of this was the white-clothed mermaid being misled by Li Changhe’s words. The real goal for human[Players]was still to destroy the ’source’.

"For you mermaids... this[Task]is probably about seizing something, right? It does not conflict with us humans. We are just[Great Wall Players]coming to deal with mysterious events. As long as we kill five mermaid[Players], we can easily leave." Li Changhe continued to lead: "Although there is a problem with the time span here, and you have brought in a large number of mermaid troops, as long as we are in the human world, our reinforcements will not cease. You should understand the style of the[Great Wall]."

There was a mix of truth and falsehood in his words, and the white-clothed mermaid couldn’t determine their authenticity. There indeed was a problem with the time span here, and their opponents did receive reinforcements.

Moreover, the despicable humans had never shown any sense of dignity towards the strong. As long as they could receive reinforcements, humans would certainly have a large number of high-level[Players]join in on the so-called righteous group fight.

This was what the mermaids were worried about. Currently, they were in the human world. Had it not been for the time span obstacle, where would they get a month’s worth of time?

They would have already faced aerial bombardments and been under the ’careful attention’ of numerous[Great Wall Players] by now.

So, the mermaids collectively called humans - ’despicable foreigners’

"Cooperation is possible, but how can I believe you? Believe you humans? For you, it doesn’t matter if you kill one more mermaid[Player], right?" The white-clothed mermaid seemed somewhat tempted.

But Li Changhe knew it was just a test. His tone changed, no longer playful but now cold: "Indeed, if it wasn’t so troublesome to find you guys among the vast number of mermaid troops, I wouldn’t want to cooperate with mermaids either. The first moment I met you, I wanted to take you down. A bit slower in efficiency, but eventually, I’d gather five!"

The white-clothed mermaid remained silent, but the trident in his hand trembled slightly.

Still deciding, huh? But it’s not the time for decision-making. The mermaid troops in the distance had already noticed Li Changhe.

It’s time to be ruthless. He couldn’t let her think he’s easy to talk to. It was necessary to show some muscle.

"Don’t trust me? Then I won’t bother talking." Li Changhe tilted his head: "We can try with another Mermaid[Player]. Teacher Wang!"

At the same time, he contacted He Feng in [Friends]: "Let the [Great Wall] take action!"

The white-clothed mermaid, who felt the hostility, changed her face and said: "Wait..."

Before her words fell, a shadow suddenly appeared behind her.

Teacher Wang had made his move, [Shadow Assassin]

[Skill Type: Title Skill]

[Effect 1: Trigger ’Aura Concealment’ when behind the target]

[Effect 2: Gain agility +2, strength +1 in dim areas]

[Consumption: Requires 20% energy to activate, lasts one minute.]

[Note: Like a Shadow, Lurking with Killing Intent]

In this dark rainy day, Teacher Wang easily triggered the second effect, his strength and agility surged.

A black long spear stabbed out directly, turning the spear soldier into an assassin.

At the same time, he released another [Skill] [Silent Backstab]

[Type: Attack Type Skill]

[Consumption: 20% physical strength value]

[Obtain Condition: Related achievement in Shadow Country, character tendency: Neutral·Evil]

[Effect: Trigger ’Silent Attack’ to deal powerful piercing damage to the target, power increased by 30% if attacking from behind]

[Note: Eat my righteous backstab!]

This was a skill Teacher Wang acquired before entering [Heaven’s Principle]. It was because of this skill that he was arranged to gather information inside [Heaven’s Principle] and kill the target if necessary.

After having his identity exposed by Li Changhe and He Feng, he had once boasted, "If the [Great Wall] wasn’t still searching for evidence on [Heaven’s Principle], I would have long killed those two Lv. 10s who kept appearing before me."

It felt like boasting, a Lv. 6 killing two Lv. 10s? Even [Holders] couldn’t do that.

However, his current attack power was indeed not weak. This was a skill that strengthened piercing attacks, but Teacher Wang abandoned stabbing arrows or daggers and directly changed to a long spear.

Since it’s piercing, then let it be a satisfying stab! Who says a long spear can’t be used for assassination?

Li Changhe and He Feng agreed, laughing and sending the word "shameless" his way.

The spear silently stabbed towards the back of the white-clothed mermaid’s heart.

The white-clothed mermaid’s face turned pale, cursing inwardly. Wasn’t everything going smoothly during the talk? She didn’t say she wouldn’t cooperate. Why the need for violence?

Without time to turn around, she threw the trident in her hand quickly backward. As soon as the trident hit the ground, it became a round shield covered with scales.

The black spear hit the round shield, and the counterforce caused Teacher Wang to grunt.

The white-clothed mermaid was hit on the back by the tremendous force through the round shield, and her face turned pale as well. When she raised her head, she saw that the man she had been talking to before had already raised his mechanical bow aimed at her.

At the same time, several sense of danger came from all around.

"Wait!"
