- Online Game : God Level Assasin, I am The Shadow!
- GTA Chapter 53
At this moment, Qin Xiaoyou was in a terrible mood.
Ironically, when she cut ties with Qin Feng, she didn’t feel nearly as bad as she did now.
Finally…
The God Forsaken game reminded her that her real body’s hunger level had reached 90%, and she needed to eat.
Only then did she realize it, and she called Chu Yan to log off together.
She thought about ordering takeout.
But with the arrival of the God Forsaken game, many stores had closed, and there were no delivery drivers!
It was only then that Qin Xiaoyou remembered Qin Feng!
Back when she lived at home, Qin Feng always prepared delicious meals for her—everything she liked—so she never had to lift a finger or even think about it. She just needed to eat.
But now…
They had cut ties!
For a moment, Qin Xiaoyou felt a bit uncomfortable.
But she quickly gritted her teeth. “It’s just food. Compared to freedom, nothing else matters!”
…
Meanwhile, Qin Feng had already put Qin Xiaoyou far behind him.
In just over an hour, he had received the coordinates for four silver-level BOSSes. One after another, he tracked them down and killed them all!
Each kill brought him 16 evolution points!
On top of that, with the loot he collected using the Greedy Hand ability, if he sold everything to the officials, each silver-level BOSS netted him about 3,000 to 4,000 days of tradable lifespan.
A little over an hour later…
Qin Feng returned to Firefly Town, his spoils in tow.
He contacted the official liaison, selling all the silver and gold equipment and skill books he had collected.
A quick glance at his inventory:
——
[Tradable Lifespan: 105 years]
——
That was nearly 40,000 days of tradable lifespan!
“I can extract quite a bit of stuff now.”
“But there’s no rush…”
Qin Feng took a moment to check his equipment.
By now, he was decked out in nothing less than gold-level gear!
His weapons: the platinum-level ‘Ghost Ship Twin Blades.’
His armor: gold-level ‘Will-o’-the-Wisp Leather Armor.’
His bracers: the gold-level ‘Heavy Red Leather Gloves.’
A necklace: ‘Follower’s Pendant (Gold),’ and two rings: ‘Cursed Ring (Gold)’ and ‘Nimble Ring (Platinum).’
From defeating those four silver-level BOSSes, Qin Feng had also swapped out his bronze greaves and inferior shoes.
——
[Swift Leather Greaves (Gold): Assassin-class armor. Physical Defense: 15. All Elemental Resistance: 12. Cooldown Reduction: 35%. Requirements: Level 8.]
[Stealth Boots (Gold): Assassin-class armor. Invisibility Duration: 20%. Movement Speed During Invisibility: 30%. Stealth Break Attack Power: 35%. Requirements: Level 9.]
——
With these upgrades, Qin Feng’s stealth ability had become even stronger.
His cooldown reduction had also increased from 55% to 75%!
Now, his Shadow Strike, which originally had a 12-second cooldown, only took 6.8 seconds, making his offensive power surge dramatically.
“I’ve got 28,000 experience points now.”
“Once I reach 50,000, I can advance to my first class promotion.”
“Before heading to the mainland, I need to promote my class once and raise my stealth to level 3…”
Qin Feng planned in his mind.
The starting town had no platinum-level BOSSes.
But once he reached the mainland, Qin Feng was determined to claim the first kill of a platinum-level BOSS!
However, platinum-level BOSSes generally had anti-stealth detection of at least level 2, so if he didn’t upgrade his stealth by one level, dealing with platinum BOSSes would be troublesome.
After all…
Platinum-level BOSSes were designed to be tackled by teams!
Normally, it would take 30 to 40 players to even consider going after one.
Just then…
As Qin Feng returned to the town square, a sneaky-looking young man ran up to him.
“Are you Shadow?”
“I’ve got a hit job for you. Are you interested? Don’t worry, the pay won’t disappoint.”
The young man lowered his voice, speaking in a shady manner.
Qin Feng glanced at him and started to walk away.
Seeing this, the beady-eyed youth got anxious. “Wait, don’t go! It’s just a hit on a regular guy named Qin Feng. I’ll give you the address… You killed Song Fei, so this should be easy for you.”
Hearing this, Qin Feng stopped in his tracks.
Kill Qin Feng?
Well, well!
Qin Feng looked at him and asked, “Did this guy offend you? You’re paying so much just to kill him?”
The beady-eyed young man glanced around nervously and whispered, “That’s none of your concern. But rest assured, the pay is good—3,000 days of lifespan!”
3,000 days was worth about 50 million at current rates!
The price was certainly high.
Clearly, it wasn’t because ‘Qin Feng’ was hard to kill, but because of Shadow’s reputation as the world’s number one assassin.
“Interesting.”
“Who wants to kill me?”
“More importantly, who’s trying to hire Shadow to kill me?”
Qin Feng couldn’t help but chuckle. The situation was obviously someone targeting him.
As for the beady-eyed youth in front of him, Qin Feng was certain he had never seen this guy before. This kid was just a messenger.
The real person behind this was someone else!
“At this point, there aren’t many people who have both the means and the motive to pay such a high price to kill me…”
If it was related to his identity as ‘Shadow,’ he had made plenty of enemies.
But in his real-life identity as ‘Qin Feng,’ it was unlikely that he’d be on anyone’s radar this early.
So…
This was a grudge from before the God Forsaken game had descended!
“Qian Shishi?”
Qin Feng quickly thought of her.
The daughter of the chairman of Qian Group, a woman notorious for partying with foreigners all the time!
After considering it, Qin Feng could only think of Qian Shishi as the one with both the motive and the financial power to hire someone to kill him.
“Wow, I haven’t even gone after you, and you’re already coming for me?”
Qin Feng found it ridiculous.
He understood Qian Shishi’s thinking perfectly.
This whole hit was really just an excuse to meet ‘Shadow,’ and killing ‘Qin Feng’ was just a side objective.
If she had truly wanted him dead, with her influence, she could’ve taken care of him even before the God Forsaken game descended. There was no need to wait until now and spend 50 million.
After thinking this over, Qin Feng looked at the beady-eyed youth and said, “Alright, I’ll take the job. But I need half the payment up front. Also, I decide when to act.”
Hearing this, the beady-eyed youth was thrilled. “You’ve agreed? But half the payment… I’ll need to check with my employer.”
Before long, the beady-eyed youth initiated a trade request.
Sure enough, he placed 1,500 days of lifespan into the trade!
To Qin Feng, this amount of lifespan wasn’t much, but free is free, so why not?
The trade was quickly completed!
Qin Feng smiled slyly, thinking to himself, “I’ve collected the down payment… but the person I’m going to kill isn’t Qin Feng. It’s you, Qian Shishi!”
Dishonorable?
Shameless?
Qin Feng didn’t care about any of that.
To him, he only had two goals:
First, get stronger.
Second, send his enemies straight to hell!
