Chapter 440: Concept Changing a.s.sa.s.sin

After One Page Book landed, she wiped the sweat off her forehead nervously. If w.a.n.g Yu made the slightest of mistake, she would have been killed by the army of human skeletons. At the same time, One Page Book"s hatred for w.a.n.g Yu was significantly reduced.


"Thank you." One Page Book whispered.


w.a.n.g Yu casually brushed it off, "Let"s not stand idle as we must hurry to the mountain peak."


After saying this, w.a.n.g Yu led the way as he started running towards the Dusk Peak.


Since a.s.sa.s.sin Lyon gave a wrong hint, it was evident that this fella was the last BOSS they had to face in this quest. They were about ten minutes away from Dusk Peak so if they didn"t hurry, things might become troublesome when a.s.sa.s.sin Lyon caught up with them.


However, just as w.a.n.g Yu started running, the figure of an a.s.sa.s.sin appeared behind w.a.n.g Yu. The a.s.sa.s.sin raised his dagger in an attempt to strike the back of w.a.n.g Yu"s head.


Lone Vagrant Guest and One Page Book were equally astonished to see this. Before they could warn w.a.n.g Yu, the dagger had already pierced through w.a.n.g Yu"s head.


"Bang!" w.a.n.g Yu"s body exploded with a sound and that a.s.sa.s.sin was slightly taken aback. At the very next moment, w.a.n.g Yu appeared behind the a.s.sa.s.sin as w.a.n.g Yu kicked the a.s.sa.s.sin"s back.


The a.s.sa.s.sin"s body turned red and w.a.n.g Yu felt as though he just kicked a rock and was thrown backwards immediately.


At this point in time, the a.s.sa.s.sin turned around and extended his arm. He sealed the escape route of the three of them before speaking in a cold tone, "Return! Listen to me and put that heart in that altar."


When he spoke, One Page Book and Lone Vagrant Guest were clearly able to see the appearance of this a.s.sa.s.sin. He was indeed a.s.sa.s.sin Lyon, the one who gave them their quests.


a.s.sa.s.sin Lyon (LV50) (Obsidian) (Ancient)


HP: 500000


MP: 100000


Skill: Proficient a.s.sa.s.sin, Acupoint a.s.sault, Dark Support


Talent: Pickpocket, Camouflage


Character Introduction: He was once a n.o.ble a.s.sa.s.sin. Before the fall of darkness, he killed multiple leaders of the dark faction. He partic.i.p.ated in the battle to seal The Sixth Apostle. However, he got obsessed with the power of darkness and eventually stole the Heart of Darkness. He was then chased by the a.s.sa.s.sin a.s.sociation and had been wandering for over ten years.


"It"s you!!" In comparison to w.a.n.g Yu"s calm face, there were huge contrasts in the expressions of Lone Vagrant Guest and One Page Book.


"How dare you lie to people? Aren"t you afraid of the wrath of Heaven?" Lone Vagrant Guest exclaimed.


Lone Vagrant Guest wasn"t exactly naive when he said this. The wrath of Heaven he meant was of the system"s method to deal with intelligent NPC.


After artificial intelligence (AI) had been developed, humans started to develop a sense of crisis. Therefore, any form of AI shouldn"t be allowed to lie to others.


This was the same for games. Unless it was a unique NPC like "The Lying x.x.x" or another NPC who was meant to lie, the other intelligent NPC would have been spotted by the system if they lied. They would be dealt with by the wrath of Heaven"s formatting.


a.s.sa.s.sin Lyon stared at Lone Vagrant Guest, "Did I lie?"


"He didn"t lie!" w.a.n.g Yu said with a black face, "All he did was to secretly alter the concept."


Lone Vagrant Guest and co. listened and instantly understood w.a.n.g Yu"s words.


a.s.sa.s.sin Lyon mentioned that he was sick of running but didn"t admit that he was going to turn himself in. Obtaining absolute power and hence, not fear of being chased was also another method.


The pity was that w.a.n.g Yu really believed that this fella wanted to turn over a new leaf. w.a.n.g Yu"s belief caused him 500 gold and this was why w.a.n.g Yu had such a gloomy expression.


It was even clearer in terms of why the difficulty of the quest was dependent on a.s.sa.s.sin Lyon. He was the BOSS of the quest which was why it depended on himself.


After coming to a realisation, Lone Vagrant Guest looked at a.s.sa.s.sin Lyon in shock, "You"re really crafty!"


Wasn"t he? He used the truth to lie to others and this was the highest realm of lies… A method like this was even scarier than lying directly.


a.s.sa.s.sin Lyon was emotionless as he replied, "I had nothing to do with this. It was all the designer"s idea to design me like that."


Lone Vagrant Guest cursed once more, "I wish for a plague on the designer!"


"Go back! Put the Heart of Darkness on the altar and insert the dagger." After the nonsense conversation, a.s.sa.s.sin Lyon went back to his cold self.


After saying this, a.s.sa.s.sin Lyon looked at w.a.n.g Yu again as he added, "You are as strong as your job. As long as you follow my instructions, I will allow you to become my servants. Similarly, you will be able to obtain tremendous strength."


It seemed like a.s.sa.s.sin Lyon was pretty impressed by w.a.n.g Yu.


After saying what a.s.sa.s.sin Lyon said, Lone Vagrant Guest started to display signs of dilemma… After all, a.s.sa.s.sin Lyon was an ancient BOSS.


In the system, the rankings of the BOSS after Obsidian was G.o.d Grade. Ancient and Legendary were not considered to be part of the BOSS"s ranking. They belonged to a whole new t.i.tle called the Elite.


When a BOSS"s prestige or strength reached a certain level, he would obtain a t.i.tle. BOSSes with t.i.tles were always very strong. For example, elite BOSS at the same level as normal BOSS will be several folds stronger.


As for Ancient, they would be considered the elite among elites. Just a Bronze Ancient BOSS would easily be able to destroy a Silver Elite BOSS.


Presently, it was self-evident in terms of how strong a.s.sa.s.sin Lyon actually was.


It would an impossible dream to deal with BOSS like this unless there was a team filled with members of the same level as this BOSS. Moreover, they only had a mere three people now. To make things worse, he hadn"t even mentioned the vast difference in levels between them.


"Brother Bull, let"s just give him what he wants if we cannot make it… We will still receive our rewards right?"


Lone Vagrant Guest tried to convince w.a.n.g Yu.


Even though money comes from danger, who would be willing to risk their life if they could easily obtain rewards in another way?


w.a.n.g Yu shook his head, "No way! We will be doomed if we give him what he wants. Don"t forget that this fella betrayed his faction. Helping him would mean that we are taking the side of the evil-doer."


Just by letting go of the Heart of Darkness, the three of them would suffer the reduction of 1000 merit points. If the light faction chose to accept this quest, who knows how much more merit points they would have to give up? w.a.n.g Yu"s neutral faction merit points might even be reduced.


The majority of w.a.n.g Yu"s friends was in Twilight City. He couldn"t possibly leave his hometown right… This was way too impractical.


"But why do you need to care about factions if we receive the rewards? This is merely just a game." Lone Vagrant Guest continued to argue.


As a rogue player, Lone Vagrant Guest didn"t really care about being in any of the factions. It was merely a change in venue to play the game. Therefore, he felt that w.a.n.g Yu"s idea was a pedantic and brainless way to play this game.


"Reward?" w.a.n.g Yu asked. "A copper and some experience points are also considered rewards. Do you really trust this guy?"


"F*ck…" Lone Vagrant Guest was at a loss yet again.


If this was in the past, Lone Vagrant Guest would never believe that an NPC would tweak the game"s concept. However, this fella in front of him was a crafty enough NPC to do so. Given the despicableness of the game"s designer, it wasn"t impossible for them to give out some experience points as rewards too.


Was a few experience points worth being chased by the a.s.sa.s.sin a.s.sociation like how a.s.sa.s.sin Lyon was? a.s.sa.s.sin Lyon was already being chased like a dog so Lone Vagrant Guest couldn"t possibly expect a.s.sa.s.sin Lyon to be protecting him all the time. Knowing how the system worked, he would be considered fortunate if a.s.sa.s.sin Lyon didn"t use him as a human s.h.i.+eld.


"So what do we do?" Lone Vagrant Guest asked.


w.a.n.g Yu replied, "We kill him!"
