In the wee hours of the morning in North Sand City.
Twenty black silhouettes gathered around the government residence immediately. Their bodies were hidden in the dark shadows. Nobody in the government residence noticed them even though there was a wall between them.
"Do it!"
Two silhouettes moved almost at the same time as a lady's voice came into their ears.
Two needle-like black gleams flashed in the air.
In the next second, two honorary immortal guards who were on guard duty held their temples and their bodies fell to the ground quietly.
Before the two of them could fall to the ground, two black silhouettes dashed out and dragged the two corpses into the bushes.
It took less than two seconds for them to get rid of the corpses.
After getting rid of the guards, the twenty black silhouettes entered the government residence one after another.
The people who were hiding in the shadows spread out and began their hunt.
In the government residence, the powerhouses who were still in deep sleep died quietly in different ways.
Some of them had their heads chopped off while some had their brains pierced by sharp blades. Some of them had their brains pierced by thin needles but there was no wound on the surface at all …
In the governor's room, Wei Yun, who was sitting on the bed with his legs crossed, suddenly opened his eyes.
"Who's that?!"
He could faintly sense that he was being watched by a venomous snake hiding in the dark. He could be killed at any time.
"Your sensing ability is a little special …"
A black silhouette revealed itself from the shadows slowly. She was wearing a black mask with a red gem pinned on the forehead of the mask.
"An assassin?!"
Wei Yun's pupils shrunk slightly. Although he saw the lady before him, he could not sense her presence at all. Only the top professional assassins could hide their aura to such an extent.
"Bingo. I'll give you a reward. " The lady in the black robe walked toward Wei Yun slowly. She did not seem to be in a rush to attack. "How about you choose how you want to die?"
"I choose you to die!" Wei Yun leaped up and threw a heavy punch at the woman's face.
However, a silver gleam lit up in the room in the next second. A military knife pierced through Wei Yun's head.
The room fell into silence.
After pulling the military knife out of Wei Yun's face, the lady took out a white handkerchief and wiped the knife in her hand slowly.
"I forgot to tell you, I'm not only proficient in assassination, I'm also very strong in head-on battles."
After wiping away the blood stains on the bayonet, the woman threw the blood-stained handkerchief on Wei Yun's disfigured face, turned around, and opened the door.
Nineteen black-robed men were already waiting at the door.
"There are still fifty-seven minutes before the handover of the honorary divine guards. Let's plunder the spoils of war as soon as possible …"
…
The same thing that happened in the North Sand City government residence was happening in a few other cities at the same time.
It was just that the actors and the script were different.
After lying low for a day or two, the underground organizations revealed their ferocious faces after learning that there were no imperial-level powerhouses in this world.
Massacring the government residence and plundering resources were trivial matters.
There were even some who massacred cities.
Experts like the Seventh Prince and the others were nearly invincible among those of the same level. They could easily break through the battle formations of the honorary divine guards. Coupled with the fact that the rest of the underground organization members were all immortal-level rank-9 geniuses, the government residence was no match for them.
The entire world fell into a state of panic due to the invasion and plunder.
…
Late at night, the people from the Heaven Alliance gathered again.
"I have two pieces of bad news," Tang Ning said in all seriousness before distributing the spoils of war.
"The Saints massacred the entire city today. The entire Fenglai City with over three million people was killed. Nobody was spared … "
Everyone was stunned to hear that.
"How did that happen? Don't they only need virgins for their sacrifice? Why did they kill everyone in the city? "Tan Lang could not understand.
"Because the sacrifice was interrupted, they massacred the entire city in a fit of rage. They said that they were trying to appease the True God's rage," Tang Ning explained helplessly.
"Didn't the people from the Coalition government and the Hunters' Association do anything?" Lin Huang asked while frowning.
"The Coalition government has been busy fighting Dynasty for the past few days, so they don't have the time to care. Dynasty has already taken two cities and tens of towns. If they don't stop them, I don't know how much resources they're going to take. "
"The Hunters' Association is fighting the Purple Crow, so it's hard for them to help. Now, only the adventurers are mobilizing their troops to stop the Saints and prevent them from doing anything more harmful. "
"What about Charm and the heretics? Is nobody doing anything about it? "Shen Tao asked immediately.
"That's the second piece of bad news." Tang Ning's expression turned grim. "The people from Charm seem to be coming for us …"
As soon as Tangning said this, everyone's expression turned ugly. The room fell into silence.
"Should we retreat? We don't have the upper hand if we fight Charm. "Li Jia looked at Tan Lang." We might stand a chance if we fight them one-on-one. However, they have twice the number of us now, so our chances of winning aren't high. Moreover, Charm is a professional assassin organization. They're experts in assassination and all sorts of unorthodox techniques. It's impossible to defend against them. "
Tan Lang fell into silence. Nobody knew what he was thinking.
"I think we might be able to fight them." Lin Huang could not help but say, "We can join forces with the government residence. Charm won't have the upper hand if we do that. As for assassination, I think they'll only be able to unleash 10% or 20% of their concealment techniques with a perception-type like you around. I know some perception-type techniques too, so I should be able to help. Moreover, we can send a message to the union organization for help. That way, we'll just have to stall until the reinforcements arrive. We don't have to kill all of the people from Charm. "
Although Lin Huang said that they did not have to kill all of the people from Charm, he was already thinking about how to kill all of them and devour the loot that they had taken.
He even made up his mind that if Tan Lang and the rest decided to retreat, he would have to find a way to leave the team and hunt the people from Charm on his own. After all, it was not easy for them to come to him. He would not let the cooked duck fly away.
Tan Lang finally spoke after a moment of silence.
"It's not the Heaven Alliance's style to retreat without fighting. Even if our enemy is Dynasty, we can only fight and not retreat! Our opponent this time is Charm. Not only must we stay, but we must also win! However, it'll be a tough battle. Some of us might even die. Everyone, please be mentally prepared for this. Don't take any chances … "
