- Online Game : God Level Assasin, I am The Shadow!
- GTA Chapter 104
Every class’s second advancement brings a substantial power boost to the player.
Qin Feng had known this for a long time.
But he never expected that the unique hidden class, ‘Shadow,’ would undergo such a transformative change upon reaching Tier 2.
“Attacking without exiting stealth…”
“All I can say is, this is game-breaking!”
For Qin Feng, whose stealth level had already reached 8, unlocking this new passive skill meant he was now nearly undetectable.
“Is this the ultimate form of a rogue?”
“It might not directly increase my damage, but my offensive capability has skyrocketed.”
Qin Feng mused to himself.
The most significant aspect of this ability was that it allowed him to benefit from high ‘Stealth Break Attack’ bonuses on all his attacks, anytime and anywhere.
No longer would he need to wait for stealth cooldowns!
How much did this increase his damage output?
It was hard to measure!
Take the ‘Distorted Witch’ for example: with his current abilities, he could have dispatched her in under half a minute—several times faster than before!
Earlier, he had unleashed ‘Shadow Blades’ nearly without cooldown, but most of them didn’t get the Stealth Break Attack bonus, halving the damage.
Now, each attack would be lethal!
“If it were a boss above Platinum level, they’d have even more health and might also have ‘Damage Reduction’ attributes!”
“Previously, such fights could take me over half an hour or even longer…”
“But now, the efficiency is off the charts!”
Of course.
Against other players, this ability wasn’t of much use.
He had always been able to slip back into stealth within a fraction of a second after attacking…
Effectively, he was already in perpetual stealth, only breaking it for an instant to strike.
And at this stage, if Qin Feng intended to kill other players, his stealth status made little difference!
…
Next, Qin Feng glanced at the system notifications.
Aside from unlocking the fourth passive skill, this class advancement had also boosted his core attributes considerably.
The attribute enhancements from the class were tripled!

Qin Feng scanned the attribute panel, feeling satisfied with his progress.
He then opened his inventory, where he found the ‘Evil Spirit Academy Hideout,’ the key item obtained from killing the Platinum-level ‘Distorted Witch, Stana.’
Qin Feng accessed the guild interface and used the key within.
——
[Would you like to set the ‘Evil Spirit Academy Hideout’ as the guild hideout?]
[Yes/No]
——
He selected ‘Yes.’
The Evil Spirit Academy key in his hand turned to ash and vanished.
As the leader of the ‘Shadow’ guild, Qin Feng now had control over the Evil Spirit Academy Hideout!
“This hideout only covers about 600 acres on the surface.”
“But that only accounts for the ground level.”
“Counting the three underground levels, it spans over 2000 acres, larger than both the Soul Purification Grounds and the Church Sanctuary combined…”
Most importantly, the hideout had five teleportation arrays!
They allowed free movement between the surface, the three underground levels, and the core hall.
In the room of the Platinum-level boss, the ‘Distorted Witch,’ a teleportation array had appeared. Qin Feng stepped into it, transporting himself to the Academy’s core hall!
This place…
It was a hall built in the middle of a magma lake!
The surrounding walls were like semi-transparent glass, allowing a view of the magma flowing outside, casting a fiery red glow over the entire hall.
“Impressive.”
Even Qin Feng couldn’t help but admire it.
The entire hideout used magma, converted by magical devices, to fuel a powerful defensive barrier!
“No wonder every attack against the Skytop Guild here failed in my past life.”
“With magma as an energy source, it’s virtually limitless!”
“This magic barrier could hold for an entire year without anyone breaking through!”
Of course, if he extracted this hideout into the real world, it would lose much of its power without the magma environment.
That’s why Qin Feng had first chosen to extract the Soul Purification Grounds as his real-world base.
The best feature of the Soul Purification Grounds was its concealment.
It would keep Qin Feng safe during the early and mid-game stages.
“Activate the magic defense barrier!”
Qin Feng issued the command through the guild interface.
Each hideout’s magic defense barrier was stable, consuming no energy unless under attack.
A transparent dome formed around the perimeter of the hideout, blocking out both monsters and unauthorized players.
If the barrier were attacked, it would consume his lifespan to replenish its energy.
Fortunately, this Evil Spirit Academy had magma energy in circulation.
At this stage, he wouldn’t need to sacrifice his lifespan to maintain it…
“From now on, this Evil Spirit Academy is my private domain.”
Qin Feng exhaled, feeling relieved.
He finally had a foothold in the city of magic!
Next, he began to examine the loot from the Distorted Witch.
His eyes caught an unexpected item…
…
While Qin Feng was setting up the Evil Spirit Academy as a guild hideout, several other players within the area were forcibly ejected from the region.
“……”
Among those expelled was Ghost Spirit, the girl with the hidden class ‘Blade of the Underworld.’ She hadn’t yet left the Academy’s boundaries and found herself at the dilapidated front gate.
A system notification echoed in her mind:
[This area has become the ‘Shadow’ guild’s territory. You will be transported to the area’s edge!]
“Shadow guild?”
Ghost Spirit was stunned.
Before she could process this, she noticed several other players who had been ejected alongside her.
Seeing these players, a cold glint flashed in her eyes.
They were members of the ‘Asura Hall’ guild, hired by Dongfang Yue to hunt her down in the game!
As Ghost Spirit prepared to wield her ghastly green chain-blade, the other players quickly raised their hands in surrender!
“Wait, Miss! We’re sorry!”
“We had no idea you were associated with Shadow!”
“Yeah, yeah, if we’d known, we would’ve never even thought of targeting you!”
“Don’t worry, we’ll never chase you again!”
This scene left Ghost Spirit slightly dumbfounded.
The mere mention of Shadow had such a terrifying effect?!
