- Online Game : God Level Assasin, I am The Shadow!
- GTA Chapter 88
Qin Feng noticed the two middle-aged men staking out and waiting for him.
He observed them briefly but didn’t pay them much mind.
They were just common thugs in the *Gods Forsaken Game* era—nothing particularly special.
“At this stage, anyone capable of reaching level 10 and extracting abilities into the real world wouldn’t waste their time waiting around to rob someone…”
“Killing a few monsters in-game would yield far greater rewards than staking out some random player.”
The only explanation was…
These two guys probably struggled even with killing monsters in the game!
“Currently, only around a hundred players in Jianghai City have managed to reach level 10 and extract abilities into the real world…”
“Many corporations and official groups have been hoarding lifespan and nurturing individuals in the real world.”
“But the real-world ceiling is determined by the player’s in-game power cap.”
“No matter how much tradeable lifespan they accumulate, they can’t surpass the limits of their in-game strength!”
As long as Qin Feng maintained an absolute advantage in the game, he would inevitably be the strongest in the real world as well.
No matter how much lifespan others had to extract abilities, those abilities would still be based on their in-game strength…
Qin Feng shook his head and closed his eyes.
He began extracting his abilities.
He calculated briefly.
“No need to extract my full level 15 just yet.”
“I’ll stop at level 13 for now.”
Increasing his real-world level from 11 to 13 cost him 13.7 years and 16.4 years respectively, totaling a little over 30 years.
Next, it was time to extract his skills!
——
[You have consumed 161.7 years of tradeable lifespan and extracted the skill ‘Gifted Liberation (Mythic)’.]
[You have consumed 71.12 years of tradeable lifespan and extracted the skill ‘Assassin’s Instinct (Legendary)’.]
[You have consumed 36.35 years of tradeable lifespan and extracted the skill ‘Night Ring Blade (Epic)’.]
[You have consumed 23.71 years of tradeable lifespan and extracted the skill ‘Silent Cloak (Epic)’.]
——
Extracting these five skills used up 292.88 years of Qin Feng’s tradeable lifespan.
At the current rate, where each year of lifespan could sell for 20 million in cash, this lifespan was worth a staggering 6 billion yuan!
“Now that I’ve extracted these skills, I only have two left to pull out.”
“One is the *Darkest Hour*, which blinds nearby enemies, and the other is *Dark Depths*, a passive skill that boosts stealth levels.”
The former required 34.65 years to extract.
The latter required 73.81 years.
Qin Feng decided to hold off on extracting them for now because…
He needed to prioritize extracting the *Golden Mount Bell*, which required 113.89 years of lifespan.
“Extract the *Mount Bell*!”
After spending over 100 years of lifespan to extract the bell, Qin Feng was left with only 3.1 years of tradeable lifespan remaining.
Lifespan was truly in short supply!
This was why Qin Feng had chosen to sell the *Sanctuary Hideout*.
Otherwise, he would have held onto it, knowing its value would only increase over time.
“Selling off one hideout won’t affect me much. After all, I can always acquire more.”
“The ruins of Magi City are much larger, and there are six hideouts similar to the *Pure Soul Domain* and *Sanctuary Hideout*…”
“Right now, they should still all be unclaimed.”
Qin Feng wasn’t entirely familiar with the structure of the Magi City Ruins.
In his previous life, he hadn’t arrived there until after reaching level 20.
By that time, all six major hideouts in Magi City had already been claimed by officials and guilds.
As for the Platinum-level bosses guarding the hideouts, Qin Feng hadn’t paid them much attention—he only heard about them through player gossip.
“With my current strength, scouting out a Platinum boss’s skills shouldn’t be too hard.”
“Even if I die once, I’ve got the *Phantom Bell* as a backup, so it’s no big deal.”
Of course, these were thoughts for when he reached Magi City.
Now that Qin Feng had reached level 15 in *Gods Forsaken Game*, it meant he could teleport to the ruins of Magi City!
…
With only 3.1 years of lifespan left, Qin Feng finally logged out.
In the guesthouse room where he was staying, the two tattooed middle-aged men were still sitting around with machetes, smoking and chatting.
Suddenly, one of them noticed something. “Wait, this kid just logged off…”
When they turned their attention to the cage where Qin Feng sat, they saw his eyes open. A sharp dagger had inexplicably appeared in his hand…
This dagger was something Qin Feng had been carrying with him since his first time returning to the real world.
There was no other way—assassin-type attack skills required the user to equip daggers or short blades!
Since there wasn’t enough lifespan to extract in-game weapons just yet, he carried a small dagger around instead!
The expressions on the two men’s faces turned vicious.
Seeing the dagger in Qin Feng’s hand, they were just about to speak when…
Suddenly!
A black blade of energy flashed around Qin Feng, spreading outwards in a deadly arc!
The blade sliced at chest level, cutting outward in all directions.
*Slash!*
*Slash!*
The two men didn’t even have time to react before the black blade sliced through their chests.
Their eyes widened in shock as their upper bodies collapsed to the floor, their machetes clattering to the ground with a metallic *clang*!
But that wasn’t the most terrifying part.
The true horror was that when Qin Feng unleashed his *Night Ring Blade*, the dark blade cut through everything in a 12-meter radius!
The iron cage that had trapped him was sliced cleanly in two, top and bottom!
Even the walls of the guesthouse room now bore a sharp crack.
The entire room…
Had been sliced in half!
*Slash!*
In the room next door, a burly man who had been on top of the landlady suddenly had his head sliced off, flying through the air.
“Ahhh—!”
The landlady screamed.
She had been lying on the bed, so she narrowly avoided the sweeping arc of Qin Feng’s strike.
Initially, she had invited some local thugs to come and rob Qin Feng while he stayed at the guesthouse.
But she never expected that while the thug was on top of her, his head would suddenly fly off!
Covered in blood, she screamed in horror, completely shaken.
However, her scream was short-lived.
A moment later, a poisoned dart from Qin Feng pierced her skull, sending her to the afterlife.
…
In a nondescript guesthouse in Jianghai City, the entire third floor of the building was cut in half by a flash of black energy.
The upper part of the building slowly slid off, crashing to the ground below in a cloud of dust and debris…
In the darkness.
A shadowy, invisible figure rode atop a phantom-like *Ghost Night Wolf*, leaping high into the sky, heading eastward.
In the wreckage of the guesthouse, four deadly flowers bloomed.
Scarlet and eerie.
They drained every last drop of blood, flesh, and bone from the four corpses, leaving nothing behind.
