- Online Game : God Level Assasin, I am The Shadow!
- GTA Chapter 57
As Qin Feng made his way back to the town, the world had drastically changed in just a short time!
Including Qin Feng, exactly seven players from the Jianghai City region had reached level 10.
It might seem like Qin Feng was on par with them at level 10, but he had an additional 50,000 experience points, which he had used for his class advancement.
That 50,000 experience could take other players days to grind.
So in reality, Qin Feng’s progression was several times ahead of the others.
Meanwhile…
Players in other parts of the world had also reached level 10.
In North America, a former professional shooting game player was the first to reach level 10 in Los Angeles and dropped a bombshell announcement.
In Forsaken World, equipment, skills, and levels…
Could actually be extracted into reality by consuming transferable lifespans!
Shortly after, a blonde female singer from Western Europe also reached level 10 and confirmed the same information.
Similar reports came from India, Japan, Korea, Australia, and Russia… the same news spread worldwide.
It instantly ignited global chaos!
“Holy cow! You can extract Forsaken World abilities into reality?”
“No way! Once I hit level 10, I’m starting zero-dollar shopping right away!”
“So that means the death of that celebrity, Song Fei from Da Xia, was really caused by an assassin!”
“Yeah, Shadow reached level 10 first, so they must’ve extracted a stealth skill!”
“That’s terrifying. If they want to kill someone, it’d be too easy.”
“Hurry up and extract an anti-stealth skill! Without it, this world will belong to assassins!”
“How can everyone have anti-stealth? We’ll have to stick together for protection…”
“Wait, why did Shadow kill Song Fei? Rumor has it they fought over a boss in the game?”
…
In no time, billions of people across the globe were thrown into a state of panic!
Governments around the world initiated emergency actions.
The priority, of course, was to have law enforcement and military personnel enter Forsaken World and level up as quickly as possible.
Thanks to the massive amounts of transferable lifespans governments had purchased earlier, they still maintained some level of control, preventing a total collapse in the short term.
Amid the global fear, news broke in Da Xia…
Jianghai City’s Dajiang Industrial was raided for illegal activities, including unlawful detention, running underground casinos, and organ trafficking.
At the same time, it was revealed that Song Fei had multiple inappropriate relationships with underage female fans and even encouraged drug use among them!
Rumor had it that Shadow was commissioned by the authorities to eliminate both Song Fei and Jiang Li…
While heading back to town, Qin Feng briefly chatted with Nai Bai’s Xue Zi, who filled him in on the situation. He was speechless.
“The authorities sure know how to clear my name.”
“Is it to make future cooperation with me easier?”
Qin Feng felt a moment of silence for Song Fei and Jiang Li.
But thinking it over…
The crimes pinned on Song Fei and Dajiang Industrial might not have been baseless. They probably did commit those acts, but it had just never been exposed before.
In any case, both were now history.
Whether it was Song Fei or Dajiang Industrial, which had wielded considerable power in his previous life, they had been reduced to relics of the past at the very start of this new world.
The authorities had even taken the initiative to clear Qin Feng’s name!
“Dongfang Xian is still at level 7 and hasn’t logged off yet?”
“Alright, once he logs off, contact me and tell me his location.”
After finishing his conversation with Nai Bai’s Xue Zi, Qin Feng closed the private chat window.
Remaining in stealth, he returned to the town and entered the underground teleportation chamber in the plaza.
His stealth had become much smoother now.
No longer needing to find a specific spot, he simply waited for the cooldown of his Shadow skill to finish, used it again, and refreshed his stealth duration, achieving seamless, permanent stealth.
When he reached the teleportation chamber, many players were coming and going, but he didn’t see any other level 10 players.
Currently, seven players had reached level 10 in Jianghai City.
Grey Rose, Gu Yixue, Lin Liyu, and the Sharpshooter and Card Master from Wang Meng’s team.
As for Wang Meng and An Yu, both being government officials, they had been delayed by various matters, but it wouldn’t take them long to reach level 10 either.
“They’ll have to return from their leveling spots after reaching level 10.”
“They’re definitely slower than me.”
Qin Feng didn’t plan to wait for anyone.
He stepped onto the teleportation array and chose to travel to the Forsaken Continent!
“I still have a lot of items I haven’t sold, but that’s fine.”
“Once I reach the continent, I can find a refuge to store my belongings, making things much more convenient.”
Now, within the teleportation chamber, a special teleportation array had appeared.
In addition to the regular teleport arrays between towns…
There was now a special continental teleportation array that only level 10 players could use.
The regular town teleport arrays were crowded with players waiting in line.
But the continental teleportation array, naturally, was completely empty.
Qin Feng stepped forward and activated it.
——
【Do you want to travel to the Forsaken Continent?】
【Yes/No】
——
Qin Feng chose ‘Yes.’
As a burst of white light surrounded him, the teleportation array activated, catching the attention of everyone nearby.
“Holy crap, the continental teleport array just activated!”
“I don’t see anyone! Who’s using it?”
“Duh, it’s got to be the Shadow master!”
“Wait, but I have level 2 anti-stealth, why can’t I see him?”
“Idiot, that just means the master’s stealth level is above 2…”
Under the envious and jealous gazes of the surrounding players, the continental teleportation array activated and transported Qin Feng, still in stealth, away!
Most players at this point were only level 3-5.
Only a handful had reached levels 6-8.
As for the few who had hit level 10, there were only about a hundred worldwide.
To the average player, even being level 6 or 7 was enough to be considered a big deal.
…
The Forsaken Continent.
An endless, desolate world.
In the ruins of an eastern city, a flash of white teleportation light appeared, bringing an invisible figure to the scene.
This was a massive city ruin spanning hundreds of kilometers!
“Just as I expected.”
“It’s the same as in my past life.”
“These are the ruins of Jianghai City.”
Still in stealth, Qin Feng appeared at the heart of the city ruins.
He glanced around and saw the familiar surroundings, feeling a bit nostalgic.
Ruined buildings lay in heaps, with faint traces of wandering monsters visible amidst the debris. At the center of the ruins stood a towering statue, more than ten meters tall—an eyeless stone giant…
In reality, this was an epic-level boss, though it hadn’t yet met the activation conditions.
When players from each city arrived on the Forsaken Continent, they would appear in the ruins of their respective cities.
Moreover…
The geographic locations of these city ruins were almost identical to their real-world counterparts!
There were many theories over the nine years of Forsaken World’s existence about what exactly the Forsaken Continent was, but none were ever proven true…
“The ruins of Jianghai City.”
“This will be the base for millions of players from Jianghai City over the next nine years.”
“In Forsaken World, there are no warehouses, and NPCs are rare.”
“To store items and develop a guild, players need a base—a refuge.”
“And the best refuge in the Jianghai City ruins…”
“Is the one that belonged to my Slaying Gods Guild!”
Qin Feng didn’t linger and quickly headed towards the northwest corner of the city ruins.
In this life, he planned to claim the best-positioned, largest refuge for himself!
Not long after he left, several beams of white light flashed near the eyeless stone giant statue at the center of the city ruins.
Gu Yixue, Lin Liyu, and others had teleported in together.
“Wow, this place is huge!”
“I heard the Shadow master arrived here a few minutes ago.”
“I wonder where he went?”
“Watch out, Xiao Xue, there’s a monster next to you!”
