Chapter 195: Chapter 194: Same Kind? (Please Subscribe)
The tall figure in a black robe swung a sword at the over ten-meter-tall Bone Dragon.
The sword, even taller than Li Changhe, cut through the air, with blue-green flames igniting along the blade. It heavily struck the closed bone wings of the Bone Dragon.
The bone wings that had [Players] at their wit’s end were violently chopped in half in an instant.
Not just the bone wings, the Bone Dragon’s ribs and neck were also cut open in that instant. It was as if the attack was not a sword, but a sudden slash through the space around it.
The purple light in Bone Dragon’s eyes dimmed instantly.
It crumbled to the ground with a ’bang’. The Sun King, who was hidden inside the Bone Dragon’s ribs, was now exposed.
The Sun King still hadn’t reacted, his face showing helplessness and horror.
He was probably in a state of ’I got up, only to be instantly killed’ bewilderment.
Li Changhe could only grumble: "Assassin, is that what you call an assassination?"
Shouldn’t an assassin be someone who hides and strikes suddenly, with a killing move? Wang Er was like that!
Another kind, like Mo Mang, would kill someone in ten steps without leaving a trace for a thousand miles!
Instead, there was the funeral bell warning, then the perpetrator stood straight in front of the enemy. He drew his sword, taller than Li Changhe, and chopped it straight into the enemy’s face.
...Is this considered an assassination? This isn’t an assassination at all! This is just openly chopping someone up!
Wang Er would probably want to break his gun and fold in anger.
As for the identity... naturally it was Hassan of the Assassins. The top-ranking Extraordinary Fighter among the Assassin faction known as the [Tolling Bell] in the [forum]!
Seeing the tall and overwhelming figure close by, the Sun King finally snapped back to reality. He retreated hurriedly with a fluster but tripped over the broken bones of the Bone Dragon.
"I didn’t see you before the Reset! Who are you? You are...." the Sun King roared, flailing his hands. Pieces of bones from all around gathered to form bone spears or bone knives. He launched a barrage of attacks against Hassan while retreating.
Right now, he was without his ace, his combat power significantly diminished. He wanted to escape.
He howled in rage, all his plans had failed. There was actually such an existence among the Assassins. They had been suppressed for decades, but such a powerful being appeared!
The sole Bone Dragon had been destroyed, the Grand Priest’s body had been occupied by him. There were no other reinforcements. He couldn’t accept this! He just couldn’t!
Hassan easily swung the large sword in his hand like chopsticks, knocking down all incoming attacks.
Li Changhe’s heart stirred, What could this mean?
In the previous scenario resets, was Hassan’s presence not there?
Is it... because of the changes made by the [Evolution Game] due to the Sun King retaining memories from before?
"What are you waiting for? Have you forgotten your target?" An emotionless voice rang out. After blocking those bone spears and bone knives, Hassan turned his attention to the [Players] and said a word.
The [Players] were stunned, and they started attacking immediately.
The goal of the [Task Completion] was to kill the Sun King. The [Players] needed to do this themselves.
The Sun King had indeed weakened a lot. Faced with the [Players’] long-range attacks, he could only summon two bone gates without any light curtain appearing. The bone gates were instantly shattered, and this time the [Players] would not make the same mistake.
Everyone aimed at the Sun King’s mask.
Li Changhe saw the Grand Priest’s body instantly shattered without blood or flesh but turned into bone fragments.
A black fog-like figure floated out from the Bronze Mask. When it was hit by the fist shadow of the Moon God, it instantly ignited.
"Ahhh!" The black shadow screamed as it burned, "No! There’s only one step left! Why? How did you exist in this world? I cannot accept it! Only one step left!"
As Li Changhe’s thrown axe hit the black shadow, it burst in an instant.
The [Task Completion] prompt appeared in the minds of the [Players].
This really was a reversal of the situation; both sides had been fighting to the point of exhaustion.
The Sun King had a greater advantage, but it was all cut off by Hassan’s single strike.
Allowing the [Players] to make a desperate comeback.
However, the [Players] did not let down their guard.
There were still 60 seconds left until they left the Instance.
There was still a formidable presence on the field - Hassan!
If he had any malicious intentions, the [Players] in their current state wouldn’t be able to stand against him.
Being able to mention the [Player]’s mission objectives meant that he must have some knowledge of the [Evolution Game].
Moreover, this Hassan was way too mysterious. He had appeared in many [Plot Tasks].
They had to be cautious. It would be too embarrassing if they failed at this point.
Meanwhile, Hassan didn’t pay any attention to the [Player]’s vigilance. He grabbed half of the Sun King’s Bronze Mask and threw it towards the [Players].
As the [Players] slightly diverted their attention, Hassan had already disappeared without a trace.
Li Changhe touched his neck, the previous chilling sensation had disappeared.
"Did he already leave? Was it because of the [Tolling Bell] that I could sense him ahead of time? This Hassan... is still too mysterious. I’ll report it to the [Great Wall] after I go back." Li Changhe thought for a moment and then waved his hand to signal that Hassan had left.
It was only then that the [Players] let out a sigh of relief. They didn’t trust Hassan, even though he helped them defeat the Sun King.
For such an existence, being extra cautious wasn’t excessive. Even Li Changhe didn’t dare to believe in someone who could easily kill him at any time.
Tiantong could only move one hand now, his whole body was covered in blood and flesh. To maintain the disguise of the [Great Wall players], Li Changhe sat next to him, taking some medicine from Tiantong’s hand and helping him to swallow it down.
The other [Players] kept their distance from each other. It wasn’t uncommon for [Players] to attack each other to snatch [Equipment]. It often happened just before leaving the Instance.
That was also the reason why Li Changhe sat next to Tiantong - to protect the most injured [Player] until they left the Instance.
As for the Bronze Mask thrown over by Hassan, the [Players] discussed it from a distance.
In the end, Dark Night Wood passed it to Li Changhe.
It was considered as distributing the spoils of war. In the fight against the Sun King, the greatest contributor was Li Changhe.
Dark Night Wood had been supporting from a distance and probably didn’t feel right about taking it. Dew was the same.
Tiantong didn’t intend to compete for the spoils; he still needed Li Changhe to protect him until they left the Instance, so staying alive alone was enough for him.
As for Moon God, he also did not participate in the competition. To those who didn’t know, he seemed wealthy and merely muttered, "It’s just a Bronze Mask, take it to change its style." Then he pushed it towards Li Changhe.
Meanwhile, within the [Friends], he discussed with Li Changhe, "The [Eternal Prosperous Tang Dynasty] will open soon. Help me out then, okay?"
"You’ve already used boss equipment to shut me up. What kind of help are you asking for? If it’s too difficult, I won’t be able to do anything." Li Changhe responded while grabbing the half Bronze Mask and putting it into his [Backpack] to study later.
"Don’t worry, I will tell you the details when we get back," Moon God replied.
Soon after, the countdown reached zero, and everyone’s space flickered. Finally, it was over...
"You have four Extraordinary Cause and Effect, and you might be their target. Perhaps, you are already their target. Be careful, of the same kind!" It was Hassan’s voice! Was he still around?
Li Changhe was taken aback.
Four Extraordinary Cause and Effect? The same kind? What was Hassan talking about?
But before he could respond, he appeared in Mr. Bai’s basement.
"Tsk, couldn’t he just let me ask something? Why did he have to tell me right at the last minute?" Li Changhe muttered in a low voice, feeling like he had just touched on an incredible secret.
