Chapter 133: As Assassins, You’re Very Unprofessional
Although it was to deceive his opponents, constantly pretending to be weak was quite unpleasant.
Occasionally, he still needed to fully display his strength to feel satisfied.
Moreover, Qin Chu had already accumulated a lot of anger in his heart. The appearance of these people was just right, allowing him to vent his rage.
Thirteen assassins, Qin Chu didn’t take them seriously at all. He had already placed Karen on the ground, and Shaye was by her side. With Shaye’s protection, no one could harm Karen.
As for Qin Chu, he was moving his hands.
Not having stretched his muscles and bones for a long time made his limbs feel a little stiff. Cracking sounds came from his fingers as he interlocked them.
Seeing that Qin Chu not only didn’t surrender but even wanted to resist?
These people were stunned. Was there something wrong with this Hero’s brain?
Couldn’t he see the huge difference in strength between them? This summoned Hero was truly an idiot.
The leader of the assassins knew that it was best not to waste words with Qin Chu in this situation. It was better to just take action swiftly and eliminate him, then bring his head back to His Highness Lance to report the completion of the mission and receive the reward…
Of course, the woman next to him couldn’t be spared either. What happened tonight couldn’t be discovered by anyone.
But the leader couldn’t help himself.
He even wanted to laugh.
Thinking about personally killing the noble Hero was truly exciting.
“Qin Chu, don’t think you’re some kind of expert just because you defeated Horn. Not to mention that it was a sneak attack, even if you really defeated Horn in a duel, so what?”
“To us, Horn is just trash. Any one of us thirteen can easily defeat him. Now, Ekaterina and that tall woman are not by your side. You don’t think you can fight against us alone, do you?”
“If you obediently kneel down and surrender, maybe we’ll let you die a quick death.”
His Highness Lance would be very happy if they could humiliate the Hero.
They were experts carefully trained by His Highness Lance, completely different from trash like Horn. What they learned from the beginning was how to quickly end a life.
When the Crimson Valkyrie and Violet weren’t by Qin Chu’s side, taking his life was as easy as flipping their hands.
The Hero’s strength did increase very quickly. Being able to reach the level of defeating Horn in such a short time was enough to prove that his talent was astonishing, surpassing anyone in the Heavenly Continent.
But he had been in the Heavenly Continent for too short a time. This short period wasn’t enough for him to reach the level where he could fight against them.
Thirteen against one, the advantage was theirs.
They didn’t think they could lose at all.
Qin Chu had finished stretching his limbs. He hooked his finger impatiently, “Why so much unnecessary talk? Are you women?”
Hiss…
Not only was Qin Chu not afraid at all, he even dared to provoke them. This clearly angered the assassins. Although their faces were covered by black masks, their eyes were almost spitting fire.
The next second, one of the assassins flickered and suddenly disappeared.
This was the most basic skill of an assassin: Invisibility.
The smile on Qin Chu’s face grew wider, his eyes narrowed. Two seconds later, his right hand suddenly shot out to the side, his five fingers curved like an eagle’s talons.
Under the streetlight, a figure gradually emerged like ripples in water.
It was the assassin who had just disappeared. At this moment, his neck was grabbed by Qin Chu. With just a little force, the assassin’s face contorted in pain and suffocation.
His entire body was lifted high by Qin Chu, his legs struggling desperately in mid-air.
The dagger in his hand was knocked away by Qin Chu.
Looking up at the eyes filled with anger and shock, the smile on Qin Chu’s face grew even wider, “As assassins, you’re very unprofessional.”
The next second, with a whoosh, the thin body was slammed heavily onto the ground by Qin Chu.
The ground trembled violently, as if an earthquake had occurred.
Cracks spread like ripples.
A cracking sound could be heard. Assassin No. 1’s body was curled up, countless bones in his body shattered, and the mask on his face was quickly dyed dark red by the blood spurting from his eyes, ears, nose, and mouth.
“First, as assassins, you must never underestimate your target. No matter how weak your target appears, you must treat them with caution.”
As he spoke, Qin Chu calmly stepped back.
Two sounds of sharp blades tearing through the air came from in front of him. Assassin No. 2 and No. 3 had launched their attack.
Although both assassins were invisible, Qin Chu could easily see their positions from the faint outlines in the air.
He stomped on the ground forcefully, and an earth spike suddenly erupted from the ground, piercing through one of the assassins’ bodies with a thud.
Assassin No. 2 was hanging on the earth spike like a piece of dried meat, blood gurgling from the wound. He wasn’t completely dead yet, his body struggling like a worm.
“Second, as assassins, after I’ve noticed your presence, your best option is to retreat immediately, not to jump out and attack.”
As soon as his voice fell, Qin Chu suddenly turned around and stretched out his left hand, his palm covered in fiercely burning silver Battle Qi.
With a hiss, the sharp dagger tore through Qin Chu’s palm, making a sound like metal grinding against metal.
There was no trace of a wound on Qin Chu’s palm. The silver Battle Qi completely blocked the blade. Not only that, when Qin Chu’s five fingers gripped the dagger, the Battle Qi spread like a viper along the blade, instantly wrapping around Assassin No. 3’s body.
With a shrill scream, Assassin No. 3 was instantly burned to ashes. Even the steel dagger melted into liquid, scattering on the ground with a sizzling sound.
“Third, as assassins, you should never be easily angered by my provocation. Maintaining absolute rationality is the most basic quality of an assassin.”
He crouched down, one hand pressing on the ground.
“Embrace of the Earth.”
Rumble…
A rumbling sound like an earthquake came from the ground beneath his feet. The ground cracked and trembled violently, and a large amount of sand surged out from beneath the road.
It swirled violently in the air like a whirlwind, instantly engulfing Assassin No. 4, who was about to fire his crossbow from a distance.
With a shrill scream, Assassin No. 4’s clothes were instantly torn apart, his body covered in countless tiny wounds. Then, the swirling quicksand dragged his body and buried it in the ground. The solid road surface returned to its original state, as if nothing had happened.
“Fourth, as assassins, if you really want to assassinate someone, then you should unleash your strongest power instantly and attack together, not come one by one to die like this.”
The surroundings were deathly silent.
The remaining nine assassins, who hadn’t had time to react, all froze in place, their bodies trembling violently as if they had been electrocuted.
Beads of sweat could be clearly seen rolling down their foreheads, exposed by the black masks, which were almost completely soaked.
Their eyes trembled violently, filled with deep, unconcealable fear…
This… This was impossible.
In just a few seconds, four of their brothers had died at the hands of the Hero.
Each of them was stronger than Horn, yet each of them was almost instantly killed by the Hero.
When did the Hero’s power become so strong?
Magic? They had never heard of the Hero learning magic. This man shouldn’t have any Mana at all. But now, not only could the Hero use magic, he could even cast it instantly, without even chanting a spell.
Battle Qi… They had never seen such a strange silver Battle Qi, which could even melt metal.
They wanted to scream in fear. Even if the Hero had powerful talent and abilities, wasn’t his strength increasing this fast cheating? Even the First Hero couldn’t have reached this level in such a short time.
They had just thought they had the advantage.
They had just thought they couldn’t possibly lose.
The words they had just used to mock the Hero now turned into resounding slaps on their faces, burning with pain.
“Fifth, as assassins, before you attempt an assassination, you must have a thorough understanding of your target’s strength.”
As soon as his voice fell, Qin Chu stood up, his long arms spread out to the sides.
Hum…
A silver light began to burn on Qin Chu’s body.
Dark purple Mana also transformed into a hazy mist, enveloping his body. The Mana turned into countless strange streaks, writhing like tentacles.
Qin Chu’s aura continued to grow stronger.
The pressure became stronger and stronger, and the air seemed to become stagnant.
The nine assassins felt as if they were under the pressure of a mountain, their legs trembling uncontrollably, as if they might kneel on the ground at any moment.
They even felt that breathing had become a luxury, their hearts pounding violently, as if they might explode under this tsunami-like impact.
No… No… No…
The leader let out a strange scream. This was impossible.
Before they took action, they had carefully assessed Qin Chu’s strength. They had even considered the possibility that he was stronger than they thought, but at most, he would be around level 65, it couldn’t be higher.
This was already calculated based on the unprecedented advancement speed in the Heavenly Continent.
But now, the aura emanating from Qin Chu was still growing stronger.
Level 70, level 75?
With Qin Chu’s feet as the center, cracks spread rapidly under the influence of his powerful aura, reaching the feet of the assassins in an instant.
Level 80?
No… This was absolutely impossible.
This was a power only Titled Knights, Valkyries, Grand Mages, and Master Thieves could possess.
Hahahaha… The leader suddenly burst into laughter like a madman, tears and snot streaming down his face.
His laughter gradually turned into a desperate wail!
Your Highness, what kind of monster are you facing?!
