The black-faced man shook his head and sighed: "I see, it's a pity that you chose the wrong promotion task."
Gu Qingshan said: "That's right."
"That's right?" said the black-faced man.
Gu Qingshan said: "'Double-edged Eagle', 'Slaying Five', 'Poisonous Wolf', 'Heart-Flaying Demon Thorn', you are all my mission targets. Unfortunately, I can't find where you are, let alone Your ability is limited, so I have no choice but to post a mission in the Hunter Guild and then go there in person."
The sword was like a stream of autumn water, emitting a cold light in the dim space.
The face of the dark-faced man gradually changed, and he asked in a deep voice:
"Wait, you're not a hunter?"
"Ah, of course not, I am an assassin." Gu Qingshan said.
Only then did the black-faced man finally understand.
The assassin in front of him was on a promotion mission.
He wants to kill himself.
The black-faced man's eyes moved on the opponent's long sword, and he said calmly: "In this way, there are no treasures in this world. You posted tasks in the Bounty Hunter Guild just to gather us together."
"Smart," Gu Qingshan praised, "Are you ready? You can die."
"Wait! Wait!" The black-faced man suddenly shouted, "Don't kill me. We can reach an agreement. I will give you all my wealth and you will spare my life."
"No," Gu Qingshan said awkwardly, "As long as you can reach an agreement with others, you will not be killed by the other party, and you can also unilaterally tear up the agreement."
The dark-faced man's pupils shrank suddenly.
He whipped out two spikes and rushed towards Gu Qingshan.
Gu Qingshan remained motionless.
The next moment, as soon as the black-faced man moved his body, he hit the void and froze.
But Gu Qingshan moved——
The hand holding the sword seemed to disappear for a moment, and it seemed that he didn't make a move at all.
Wind blows.
A gust of howling wind met the black-faced man and blew him away in an instant.
The long wind swept up blood as thick as ink, rushed out of the abandoned building, and dyed the sky a deep red.
deep red.
Light red.
Light pink.
Under the empty gray sky, everything dispersed with the wind.
Ding Ling clang!
The two spikes fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
Gu Qingshan let go of the long sword in his hand and let it return to the void behind him.
He took out a task sheet and looked at it carefully.
"One, two, three...eight people, that's it, the promotion task is completed."
the other side.
Assassin's Guild.
Tuk-tuk-tuk!
"Come in."
"President, the promotion task of 'Dread Lord' has been completed." Qin Zhen reported.
"Oh?" the one-eyed old man said with interest, "How did he get promoted so quickly? How did he do it?"
"He got the assassination mission issued by the Hunter Guild." Qin said.
The one-eyed old man thought for a moment and said: "That is part of the hunter guild's elimination plan. They are determined to eradicate those gray hunters who like to attack their own people."
"Yes, after the 'Dread Lord' received the mission, he disliked the fact that there were too many people to kill, so he went directly to the Hunter Guild to issue a highly targeted treasure hunting mission, and then went to the treasure hunting place to wait for those people." Qindao .
"Hahaha, what a naughty guy, he actually came up with such a labor-saving way of assassination - so he killed those eight people in the end?"
"No, he only killed one, and several others died from cannibalism."
"...I see, it seems that he has predicted it beforehand. Yes, yes, let him be promoted."
"As commanded."
"From now on, you can tell him all the welfare and training measures of the guild."
"yes."
…
bar.
In front of the bar, Ya and Gu Qingshan sat together, drinking and chatting.
"You spent a lot of money today." Crow said.
"It's okay. I have to thank you for taking me with you on this large-scale comprehensive mission." Gu Qingshan picked up the wine glass and said.
"Haha, don't mention it, I will never take you with me again." Crow joked.
"Why?"
"Once you enter God mode, others won't even be able to drink soup, so forget it."
Gu Qingshan shook his head helplessly.
The two had a drink.
The bar is noisy and noisy, and all kinds of monsters have turned into human forms and are having fun here.
"Why did you become an assassin in the first place?" Crow asked casually.
"You are poor and need money urgently. How about you?" Gu Qingshan asked.
"I can only do this." Crow shrugged and said helplessly.
He thought for a while and continued: "I have no intention of spying on your ability. I just guess that your power to kill everyone in an instant cannot be released easily."
"Yes, it is true." Gu Qingshan admitted.
"So what I want to say is that there are many forces from all sides in Void City, and there are endless strong people and countless abilities. Although you have become a 'Wuze' level assassin, I still hope that you will not overdo it." said.
Gu Qingshan listened carefully, raised his cup and said: "This has touched my heart. In fact, I have been walking on thin ice. I am afraid that if I encounter some special ability, I will be knocked to the ground and never get up."
"Oh? It sounds like you feel it deeply." Crow said unexpectedly.
"Yes, I met a hunter today. His fighting ability is very poor, but his ability can easily surprise him." Gu Qingshan said.
He told the story of the "Heart Demon Stripping Thorn" ability with lingering fear.
Crow also marveled for a moment.
The two were drinking when suddenly everything fell silent.
I saw that most of the people around me had taken out various information receiving devices and started to obtain the latest information.
Crow and Gu Qingshan's badges also sent out slight requests for spiritual communication.
The two looked at each other and opened their respective badges.
A piece of information quickly appeared in their minds:
"Special message:"
"The subordinates of the Eternal Abyss have been defeated on a large scale, and the evil ghost world is moving further towards the Eternal Abyss."
"After our investigation, we found that the Eternal Abyss is still sleeping."
People started talking.
Crow frowned and said, "I really don't understand what those guys from the ghost world are thinking."
Gu Qingshan asked: "Why on earth did they attack the Eternal Abyss?"
"Who knows, the Eternal Abyss is the strongest monster in the turbulence of the void. There is no need to even mention it. It is just its subordinates, and some of them are as powerful as anyone else."
Crow took a sip of wine and murmured: "Everyone thinks that the people in the evil ghost world are crazy."
"No one knows their true intentions?" Gu Qingshan asked again.
"No, they are too closed. Almost everyone is under the control of spells and masks. You can't even think of getting any information from them." Crow said.
Gu Qingshan fell into silence.
What is going on in the world of evil spirits?
After he used the Seven Swords, he was briefly in a "fugue" state and saw visions of the future.
In the future, people from the evil ghost world rule the 900-million-layer world, burning, killing and looting everywhere, collecting fragments of the Six Paths, and finally plan to return to the original world.
Gu Qingshan clenched his fist.
How could such a future be allowed to happen?
"crow."
"kindness?"
"How did you become a titled assassin?"
"Well, in fact, after completing the assassination mission, you can only be promoted to the 'Wu Sheng' level assassin," Ya Ya thought for a while and then said: "If you want to become a title level assassin, your code name must first be recognized by all living beings and all realms. Get the blessing of the law and be promoted to a title - the title has special power and can help you improve your strength."
"In other words, my code name of 'Dread Lord' will become a title?"
"Yes." Crow confirmed.
Gu Qingshan thought about it for a while.
its not right.
The code name "Dread Lord" does have the elements to be upgraded to an exclusive title.
But those elements were absorbed by his own eyes and turned into the world's "Fog Realm Descends" technique.
——In other words, the assassin codename "Dread Lord" has lost the possibility of becoming a title.
Gu Qingshan's heart tightened and he asked: "Crow, can we assassins change our code names?"
"Of course. Why, you don't like the code name the old man gave you?" Crow asked.
"It's for some other reasons. Anyway, I want to change my code name." Gu Qingshan said.
"Oh? Have you thought about it? What should you change it to?" Crow asked with interest.
Gu Qingshan paused.
Yes, what do you want to change it to?
He was lost in thought.
A full half-quarter of an hour passed.
"I...didn't think of it."
Gu Qingshan said distressedly.
