Weng!
A screen of light appeared between Shirō Makino's brows!
No one even saw how the Defense Talisman was activated on Shirō Makino's body.
Because it was a passive Defense Talisman!
The moment Shirō Makino put away the flower, he sensed the terrifying murderous intent.
But he had to admit that he had used his psychic power to check the area, but he couldn't find anything out of the ordinary a few hundred meters away.
After the arrow missed, Lin Zijin, Ji Chae Yi, and Si Yin moved almost instantly!
They charged in the direction of the arrow.
Shan Gu didn't move from his spot, but he fired dozens of arrows in one go.
Shooting Star Arrow Hail!
The moment he fired the arrows, Shan Gu's spirit, qi, and spirit became one.
Even in the Empire League, he had never been so serious.
Because this was the real world, and because the enemy was targeting Shirō Makino.
He was furious.
So, he directly displayed his strongest ability — he forcibly shot out an effect that could only be achieved by a team of archers.
A few figures jumped out in a panic.
They were none other than the champion team from the Vast Ocean Empire!
They probably didn't expect the enemy to counterattack so quickly.
If they dared to stand still after Shan Gu's Shooting Star Arrow Hail, none of them would survive.
They would all be nailed to the ground.
Then, one of them took out a large shield and tried to defend.
A few hundred meters was a matter of seconds for Lin Zijin and the others.
If Shan Gu was angry, how could Lin Zijin, Ji Chae Yi, and Si Yin not be angry?
If not for the passive Defense Talisman on Shirō Makino, he probably wouldn't have been able to dodge that arrow.
The level of the enemy archer was beyond their expectations!
Shirō Makino could even tell that the enemy wasn't a Grandmaster the moment the arrow hit the Defense Talisman.
It was … a Grandmaster!
A high school team in the Empire League would have a Grandmaster?
Although nothing was absolute, the probability of such a thing happening was too low!
As Shirō Makino flew in that direction, his mind was racing at high speed. Wasn't that the Blue Ocean Empire's High School League Champion team?
It was very likely that they also came from the Holy Empire, and they were a group of true experts who had disguised themselves.
With that in mind, Shirō Makino flew even faster.
At this moment, Lin Zijin's saber had already slashed down on her opponent's shield.
His heart was filled with rage. Just how terrifying was Lin Zijin when she unleashed her full potential?
The powerful Undead Warrior behind the shield felt it the most.
This man did not put Lin Zijin and her group in his eyes at all.
They were just a bunch of high school students.
No matter how outstanding he was, he was at most an advanced Grandmaster.
But he was a Shield Warrior at the Great Master Realm!
Although Lin Zijin was always able to shatter her opponent's shield, that was because the person behind the shield wasn't strong enough.
If it was strong enough, just the recoil alone would be enough to cause a little lass like Lin Zijin to spurt out blood!
Such a beautiful girl was shocked to the point of vomiting blood. It must be very pleasing to the eye, right?
Clang!
Crack!
That incomparably sturdy alloy shield was directly smashed into pieces by Lin Zijin's saber!
What recoil?
Recoil my ass!
Under Lin Zijin's saber, which was like the descent of the Grim Reaper, not to mention the recoil, the force even flowed along Lin Zijin's incomparably cold saber and cut into the body of the Great Grandmaster Shield Warrior!
One slash into two!
This was the true meaning of one slash into two.
This powerful Undead Warrior would never have dreamed that he would be sliced into two by a young girl's saber.
Following that, an incomparably cold force quickly spread, directly freezing this person's upper and lower body into an ice sculpture!
This slash of Lin Zijin's was extremely ferocious.
On the other side, the slightly chubby young man and his other companion, who were still unsure of what had happened, were shocked speechless.
They were completely dumbfounded!
Were these really the champions of the Zulong Empire High School Tournament?
Were they sure they weren't the top adult experts sent by the Zulong Empire in disguise?
Without hesitation, the two of them turned around and ran.
This wasn't some virtual world. This kind of commotion was definitely not something they could watch.
Wasn't it good to be alive?
Si Yin smashed her hammer fiercely towards a woman who looked like an assassin.
The woman's figure flashed and directly disappeared into thin air.
The next moment, a specter flashed and appeared next to Si Yin. With a ferocious expression, she stabbed her saber towards Si Yin's body.
But before her saber could reach Si Yin's body, another figure appeared next to her.
Poof!
The saber pierced the female assassin's ribs, directly piercing through her heart.
The next second, the figure disappeared. The female assassin's eyes widened as blood gushed out from her ribs. She fell to the ground with a thud.
In the blink of an eye, Si Yin's hammer smashed towards another person.
Clang!
There was a loud sound.
The sword in that person's hand broke into several pieces, and he was directly sent flying. He let out a short scream in mid-air and then abruptly stopped.
This was because there was an arrow in between his eyebrows.
All of this happened in a split second.
It happened when the opponent's Grandmaster archer was in the process of retreating!
By the time the archer pulled away and tried to fight back, three of his companions had already died!
Apart from him, the other three stood there like wooden statues, unable to move at all!
Then, he saw a scene that made his eyes almost pop out of their sockets.
The super handsome young man threw out three talismans. The three talismans turned into three bolts of lightning and directly struck the three blonde and blue-eyed women to death on the spot.
Straightforward and decisive.
There was no f * cking hesitation at all!
Were they really a group of young high school students?
Were they really a group of inexperienced brats?
The Grandmaster archer was about to go crazy.
The other party's exquisite coordination and decisiveness were almost no different from the assassins who carried out missions all year round!
Of course, there was still a difference — the other party was stronger than them!
Their team had a total of seven people. There were three Grandmasters and four Grandmasters at the peak of the Grandmaster level!
This kind of lineup was definitely more than enough to kill the champion team of the Empire High School League.
But now, they were defeated.
The Grandmaster archer released his arrow in an instant. His arrow shot towards Shirō Makino's group at the same time!
However, just as he was about to release the arrow, he suddenly realized that he … could not move!
The incomparably handsome young man's face was filled with endless coldness as he slowly walked in front of him.
Then, the bald young man directly locked a few Spiritual Power Shackles on his body.
The Grandmaster archer only needed a glance to determine that these Spiritual Power Shackles could even lock a Grandmaster at the peak of the Grandmaster level, not to mention him.
These things were definitely not cheap, and they could not be bought in the market at all!
Where did this group of young people come from?
If he had a Crown Prince as his teammate, he could also get one.
In the blink of an eye, six people were killed.
At this time, Si Yin squatted at the side and started to retch.
Although they had fought in the real world before, at that time, Si Yin was still at the stage where she was protected by everyone else.
But now, she had personally participated, rushed to the front, and watched helplessly as a group of people who had just been alive died in front of her. For Si Yin, it was still quite a big blow.
Chae Yi walked over, took out a bottle of water from her space ring, and handed it to Si Yin.
Si Yin waved her hand and said softly, "I'm fine. I'm just a little … uncomfortable. I'll be fine in a while."
Shan Gu walked in front of the archer and reached out to take the bow in his hand. Then, he looked at it and took a space ring from his hand.
Then, he walked towards the assassins who had been killed. Without saying a word, he searched one by one.
Lin Zijin squatted in front of the person who had been sent flying by Si Yin's hammer and shot to death by Shan Gu's arrow. When Shan Gu walked over, she looked up. "Shan Gu, peel off this person's face."
Shan Gu: "…"
Lin Zijin said, "Human skin mask."
Shan Gu came back to his senses. After searching for a while, he said with a puzzled expression, "I can't see any traces?"
Lin Zijin took out a small scalpel that was about the length of a palm and casually cut the person's body …
The corner of Shan Gu's mouth twitched.
Then, a shocking scene happened. Under the layer of skin that Lin Zijin cut … there was actually another layer!
Lin Zijin's knife skills were exquisite enough that she actually did not destroy the layer below.
By this time, Shan Gu had already cleaned up the spoils of war. So, he simply squatted there … and directly started to peel off this person's skin.
F * ck!
It felt bloody, terrifying, and disgusting.
But in reality, that was not the case.
This person's skin was from head to toe.
There were no traces of stitching.
Obviously, this was the most advanced technology available at the moment.
This was not a change of face, this was a change of person.
That Grandmaster archer happened to be facing Shan Gu. Although he could not move his body, and could not say a word, he saw this scene.
His eyes were filled with deep astonishment.
This group of young people, are they all monsters?
When Shan Gu completely peeled off the person's skin, revealing his true face, the control talisman on the only surviving Grandmaster archer's body finally expired.
His voice was hoarse, no longer like the voice of a young man from before.
"We are a group of professional assassins. The mission we accepted is to kill this group of people. As for the rest, I don't know. You don't need to ask. If you are a man, then give me a quick death!"
Shirō Makino ignored him and walked over to Shan Gu and Lin Zijin.
Ji Chae Yi and Si Yin also walked over there.
The originally young and handsome man had disappeared. After peeling off his skin, what was revealed was a slightly old face that looked more than fifty years old.
Now that his eyes were closed, he had been dead for a long time.
This person was like this, and naturally so were the others.
It did not matter whether they looked at the dead or not. However, there was still a living person here.
Shan Gu borrowed the sword from Chae Yi and walked directly towards the archer who was sealed by spiritual power.
"What are you going to do …"
"Well, I want to do you, little golden retriever. Didn't you want to fight with me in real life? Don't be a coward! "
Shan Gu raised his sword and slashed!
"Archers can only use bows and arrows?"
"Wrong!"
"An excellent archer, his control ability …"
Chi!
A wound appeared on the face of the archer whose spiritual power was sealed. Blood flowed out.
Shan Gu was embarrassed and turned to look at Lin Zijin: "You do it."
"You've already cut it open, continue," Lin Zijin said without raising her head.
The archer's eyes were filled with shock. Shan Gu did not give him a chance to speak. He stretched out his hand and rolled up the skin around the wound on the archer's face. Like tearing a transparent tape on an express delivery box, he forcefully pulled — —
A large piece of skin was torn off just like that.
A middle-aged man's face was revealed.
Soon, Shan Gu had completely torn off the skin on the man's head.
A bald middle-aged man like him appeared in front of everyone.
He was a stranger. No one knew him.
Because he had been exposed, he did not seem to want to explain anything.
He just stood there and looked at them quietly.
He looked like he was going to kill them if he wanted to.
Shirō Makino looked at Shan Gu and asked: "Are you interested in dissection?"
"Not interested, it's disgusting!" Shan Gu refused without hesitation.
"I have one." Chae Yi walked over with a cold expression, pulled Shan Gu aside and took the knife from Shan Gu's hand.
Shirō Makino said: "Wait, I have more professional tools here."
Lin Zijin rolled her eyes at the side, while Si Yin's face was pale.
Shirō Makino casually threw a small box in front of Ji Chae Yi.
Ji Chae Yi silently opened it. There were all kinds of surgical tools inside!
The middle-aged man could no longer remain calm. He said with a hoarse voice: "There's no point in torturing me. I told you, I don't know anything! We're just hired by someone! "
Shirō Makino was expressionless. Lin Zijin crossed her arms and looked on. Si Yin stood beside Lin Zijin with a pale face. Shan Gu was also squatting in front of the surgical tool box, picking and choosing with Chae Yi.
"Eh? What's this? It looks fun? Is this a saw? A bone saw? "
"This is not bad either. This knife looks sharp and very thin. With one cut, the skin and the flesh … will be cut in half!"
"I heard that in the distant past, there was a man called Pao Ding who could cut a cow into countless pieces without spilling any blood! This kind of skill is probably the same when it comes to dissecting people, right? "
Chae Yi: "Do you have knife skills as good as Pao Ding?"
Shan Gu: "Don't worry, I can learn! I'm a person who likes to learn new things. "
The middle-aged man's eyelids were twitching. He suddenly felt that these young people were a bunch of demons!
They were too scary!
Unbeknownst to him, Ji Chae Yi was also stubbornly holding on.
Interested in dissection my ass!
Shan Gu was an idiot. She didn't realize that Shirō Makino was just scaring the middle-aged man. She could only bite the bullet and come.
But soon, the middle-aged man was on the verge of collapse.
Because he found that the bald guy who said he wasn't interested and was disgusting appeared in front of him with a small saw.
He chuckled and said, "I'll use this saw to cut off one of your feet first. Although I'm not a professional, I can at least finish the surgery in ten minutes! Please believe in my determination, confidence, and courage! "
With that, Shan Gu squatted down, picked up the sharp saw, and sawed at the middle-aged man's ankle without hesitation.
Crack …
On the other side, Si Yin covered her eyes.
"Ow!"
The middle-aged man screamed, "Stop! Stop, stop, stop … stop! "
This time, Shan Gu didn't hesitate at all. The sturdy ankle of the Great Grandmaster archer was already cut by the saw. The fake skin was instantly torn, and a deep wound appeared. The bone was directly cut, and fresh blood flowed all over the ground.
The middle-aged man couldn't stand anymore and fell to the ground.
Shan Gu held the saw and said darkly, "Although it's disgusting, I don't mind cutting off your limbs first, then your head!"
The middle-aged Great Grandmaster archer's face was distorted from the pain. Never in his wildest dreams would he have thought that the group of sheep in his eyes was, to a certain extent, even more ruthless than a group of assassins!
"I'll talk! I'll tell you everything … "The middle-aged man finally couldn't take it anymore. Tears and snot flowed. The pain was unbearable.
Who said that assassins had to be daring?
They might be daring when killing others, but that might not be the case when they were being tortured.
"The seven of us are all members of a secret assassin organization in the Holy Empire."
"We have a choice when we take orders. For example, we don't take orders from famous people with positive images in our own country."
Shan Gu sneered, "A group of smelly assassins. What kind of robber is this?"
The middle-aged man didn't dare to reply. He continued, "This time, we haven't had direct contact with the identity of the employer. Not contacting the employer is also our rule."
"Our mission is to kill all of you here, then disguise as you and do some things …"
"What things?" Shirō Makino asked coldly.
The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment, then said, "If I tell you everything, will you let me go?"
Shirō Makino glanced at him and revealed a hint of ridicule, "What do you think?"
Shan Gu laughed coldly, "I think we should talk about something more realistic. You're already so old, why are you still as naive as a three-year-old child? I'm not trying to criticize you, but as an assassin, aren't you a disgrace to the assassin world? What do you want other assassins to think? What do you want those who died in your hands to think? You want … "
The middle-aged man, who was drenched in cold sweat from the pain, glanced at the saw in Shan Gu's hand, gritted his teeth, and interrupted the chatterbox, "Then if I tell you everything, can you give me a quick death?"
"This request is reasonable," Shan Gu said, "I think we can satisfy it, but if you lie …"
"Fine!"
The middle-aged man couldn't stand this guy's nagging. He knew very well that if assassins like him were to fall into the hands of others, they would definitely not have a good ending.
Especially since this group of young people was completely different from what he had imagined. It was obvious from the way they killed his companions.
For assassins like them, there were too few who could have a good ending. Being able to die with dignity was already a good ending.
"The employer wants one of us to disguise as Lin Zijin and seduce the Tianhu Crown Prince, Duan Yong … then find a chance to kill him!"
After the middle-aged assassin said this, Shirō Makino and the others looked at each other. Their eyes were filled with anger, but at the same time, they felt very shocked.
There might be various reasons to kill them, but to kill the Tianhu Crown Prince?
Why?
Everyone even suspected that the middle-aged man was lying.
Who said that the words of a dying man were kind?
In a situation where death was certain, digging a pit before death to viciously trick them was only normal.
"Everything I said is true."
As if knowing that this group of people would suspect him, the middle-aged man said in a deep voice, "When we first received this mission, we were also shocked. Killing you bunch of young people from other countries is nothing, but killing the Tianhu Crown Prince, everyone knows what that means. However, the offer was too high, and we had no choice but to reject it. Furthermore, the other party gave us a promise … "
"What promise?" Shan Gu asked.
"As long as we successfully kill Duan Yong, then let others see us … oh, actually, that means you guys, enter the forbidden zone — of course, it's fake, we won't really enter the forbidden zone. When that time comes, our mission will be considered complete. Then, we will disguise ourselves and use the identities of the group of young people from the Vast Sea Empire, and our mission will be complete! All the resources we obtain during this period will belong to us, and we won't have to hand it over to the organization. "
The middle-aged man said, then raised his head to look at Shirō Makino and the others, "Although I still don't know who the client is, I can be sure that he is not an ordinary person, and he is after something big! Who knows, other than us, there might be others who want to kill you! "
"That's all, is that all?" Shan Gu asked.
The middle-aged man said, "That's all, that's all."
"Let's give him a quick death." Shirō Makino glanced at Shan Gu, then turned to look at his surroundings.
Although his mental power was strong, it was not omnipotent. If someone was watching them from afar, and that person's cultivation base was very high, it would be very difficult for him to sense it.
Then, Shan Gu gave the middle-aged man a quick death, then went to Shirō Makino's side, "I have recorded the process of exposing these assassins. Later, if anyone dares to slander us for killing those young people from the Vast Sea Empire, we will release these things!"
Shirō Makino nodded, then patted Shan Gu's shoulder.
His companions were starting to become mature.
Then, they dug a few pits, and buried all of them.
Naturally, there were no tombstones.
On the way out, Ji Chae Yi muttered, "It seems that the group of seven from the Vast Sea Empire has met with misfortune."
Shan Gu said, "There's another possibility, that is, they didn't come at all!"
Shirō Makino nodded, "I think the latter is more likely. Based on the strength of these assassins, it's impossible for them to kill the champion of the Empire League without making any noise."
Lin Ziyun said, "If it's the latter, then it means that they were coming for us from the beginning. So, brother … "
Shirō Makino thought for a moment, then looked at the group, "Do you still want to go to Tianhu?"
