- Online Game : God Level Assasin, I am The Shadow!
- GTA Chapter 109
The words of the Asura Hall guild leader left Dongfang Yue fuming.
But under these circumstances, she couldn’t afford to issue empty threats.
After all, her relationship with Asura Hall was purely transactional, and provoking them further would serve no purpose.
“Unbelievable… a bunch of lowly nobodies…”
“Once I deal with Shadow, I’ll come for you.”
“You really think a mere Godforsaken Game can upend the status quo?”
Dongfang Yue coldly ended the private chat.
Then she picked up her phone and called her husband, “Honey, yes, our son came up with a plan to deal with Shadow…”
On the other end, a middle-aged man’s voice replied, “Dear, just let it go.”
Dongfang Yue bristled. “He slaughtered my entire family, and you’re telling me to let it go?”
The man sighed, “Sigh… If you go after Shadow now, even my older brothers wouldn’t back you up… In this situation, provoking Shadow would be disastrous for everyone, including you.”
Dongfang Yue sneered, “It’s just a shadow-dwelling assassin! I have a flawless plan.”
She proceeded to outline her scheme.
“We’ll start by getting a group of people to offend Shadow. I’ve already picked them out.”
“Given his personality, he won’t let them go, right? We’ll place them at our fireworks factory, and then leak the location to him…”
“As soon as he arrives to kill them, we detonate every firework! He won’t have time to escape!”
“Even if he can stealth, he’s not invincible. Caught in that blast, he’ll be dead for sure!”
She concluded, then asked, “So? What do you think? If we kill Shadow, that’s at least a thousand years of lifespan on him! Even if he only loses half, it’ll give us more than enough to build our capital!”
After a moment of contemplation, her husband finally replied, “Alright, your plan sounds feasible. Let’s do it. But keep it secret; my brothers would never approve… Once Shadow’s gone, we’ll reassess.”
…
Meanwhile, Dongfang Yue and her husband plotted to lure Qin Feng into a trap.
They had no idea that Qin Feng had no intention of getting involved personally this time!
With Ghost Spirit on his side, Qin Feng had no need to waste time on these people.
And when Ghost Spirit struck, her target would be none other than Dongfang Yue herself.
While Qin Feng wasn’t sure how the girl tracked down Dongfang Yue in the real world, she had managed it in the previous life, so there was no reason she couldn’t do it again this time.
Of course, before Ghost Spirit embarked on her revenge, Qin Feng planned to give her some advice…
If she followed his guidance, this would be a flawless assassination.
Otherwise, it might end up like the last time, leaving behind evidence…

*In the Ice Tide Cavern…*
Qin Feng had just finished off another wave of monsters, and the ‘Ancient God’s Cursed Tablet’ had successfully charged!
He opened his equipment interface.
Then, he activated it on the ‘Ring of Witch Transformation.’
——
[You have applied ‘Utoth’s Curse’ to the ‘Ring of Witch Transformation’!]
[Utoth’s Curse]
[Buff: Skill range increased by 75%]
[Debuff: Area damage decreased by 42%]
[Would you like to keep this curse? If you do, the Utoth’s Curse on ‘Black Flame Gift: Piercing Leather Armor’ will become inactive.]
[Yes/No]
——
Qin Feng was momentarily puzzled by the prompt.
The positive effect of this curse was absurdly powerful!
A 75% increase in skill range!
This would significantly boost skills like Flash Strike, Night Blade, and Venomous Trap.
But the downside was just too detrimental.
“If it increased damage and reduced range instead, I could live with that…”
He shook his head and chose to cancel.
The curse currently on the Black Flame Gift armor was still useful, as it reduced enemy defenses and elemental resistances to zero.
The higher the boss level, the more effective this curse would be.
“If only I had more Ancient God Tablets…”
Qin Feng didn’t dwell on it.
As he closed the equipment menu, another wave of monsters began pouring in from the surrounding tunnels!
Wave after wave of monsters attacked.
Soon, even Bronze- and Silver-level bosses started appearing.
If he didn’t take them out quickly, the Ice Tide Crystal would be at risk of shattering!
Fortunately, Qin Feng’s damage was more than sufficient.
When a boss appeared, he activated *Execution Strike* with its active effect—any skill he unleashed could eliminate the boss instantly!
The nine tunnels were soon littered with the bodies of countless monsters!
Qin Feng barely had time to use *Greedy Hand*.
He kept moving, setting traps; when he couldn’t, he used other skills to clear the monsters.
Luckily, the Epic-level *Venomous Trap* worked perfectly!
Throughout the defense, the entire Ice Tide Cavern filled with green poison mist.
From Qin Feng’s perspective, damage numbers from the poison effect were everywhere…
Wave after wave of kill notifications, along with experience and lifespan, were relentlessly harvested!
Finally…
Nearly an hour later…
Qin Feng had withstood over ten waves of monster attacks in the Ice Tide Cavern!
Each wave had more than a hundred monsters.
After holding off the last massive wave of over three hundred monsters, the defense mission was finally complete!
“Good thing I’m an assassin, not reliant on mana for skills…”
“If I were a mage, running out of mana would’ve made this mission impossible.”
Qin Feng mused.
When the final wave of three hundred decaying monsters succumbed to poison, he leveled up from 15 to 16!
In front of him appeared a golden chest, sparkling brightly.
An Epic Treasure Chest!
Just like the one in the previous temple!
“The last Epic Chest gave me the Execution Strike, an assassin’s ultimate skill.”
“I wonder what I’ll get this time?”
While he was excited, Qin Feng approached cautiously.
Under the Ice Tide Crystal’s eerie blue glow, he scanned the cavern, listening carefully to every distant and nearby sound…
After several minutes of careful observation, Qin Feng finally moved forward to open the chest.
——
[Congratulations, you have obtained the ‘Barfege’s Equilibrium Pact (Epic)’!]
[Barfege’s Equilibrium Pact (Epic): Assassin Armor (Legs). Physical Defense +198, All Elemental Resistances +198, Damage Block +198, Damage Reduction +19.8%. Requirement: Level 15]
[Special: Madness Resistance +19.8]
[Equilibrium Art: Use on non-Epic equipment/skill books to convert them to equipment/skill books for your class (level and grade remain the same, attributes randomized). Cooldown: 1 hour!]
——
“Epic gear?”
“Leg armor for assassins!”
Qin Feng’s eyes lit up.
The special effect, ‘Equilibrium Art,’ allows the user to convert other class gear or skill books into assassin-specific items!
For example, a skill book like Fireball could become an assassin skill, like Shadow Veil, Assassinate, or Backstab… The exact result would depend on luck.
For Qin Feng, this was incredibly useful!
He was so far ahead in development that most gear and skill books he found were unusable by other players due to level restrictions.
In fact, by now, his tradable lifespan had overflowed considerably.
He needed to focus on strengthening his in-game power, not accumulating more lifespan.
This piece of Epic leg armor would accelerate his growth!
“I’ve got a lot of Emerald-level gear and skill books back home—everything can be converted for assassin use!”
Qin Feng was thrilled!
At that moment…
Within the cavern, illuminated by an icy blue glow, a graceful white figure began to materialize before him.
Qin Feng’s expression shifted, and he tensed immediately.
It was the same woman in white robes from last time?
