After piercing through the monster's heart, Zhao Fu instantly pulled out his Hidden Blade and retreated. The monster's corpse powerlessly fell to the ground and turned into a gray gas that dissipated, leaving behind a two-inch-long rhombus-shaped crystal. [0↑ 9 △ Small ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ Net]
Seeing that the monster had finally been killed, Zhao Fu let out a sigh of relief. Looking at the gray crystal on the ground, Zhao Fu walked over and picked it up in curiosity.
[Underworld Crystal]: Can be fused into equipment to obtain Underworld Ghost Power.
Underworld Ghost Power was most likely that monster's power, and that monster was most likely called a Underworld Ghost. Zhao Fu didn't know what kind of creature it was.
At the same time, he didn't know what the effects of fusing the Underworld Ghost Crystal into equipment would be. Right now, Zhao Fu's Hidden Blade and clothes were all ordinary items, so fusing the Underworld Ghost Crystal into equipment was a bit of a waste. Of course, Zhao Fu had other high-quality equipment, but Zhao Fu felt that the Underworld Ghost Crystal was more suitable for Assassins.
Just as Zhao Fu was about to leave, a Underworld Ghost with large ears seemed to have been attracted by the sounds of the battle.
This kind of Underworld Ghost didn't have eyes, and it relied on its hearing. Its large ears could hear even the smallest sounds, and if one could find a way to suppress it, it would be quite easy to deal with it. However, if one couldn't find a way, this Underworld Ghost would be even more powerful than Underworld Ghosts with eyes.
After this Underworld Ghost appeared, it immediately rushed at Zhao Fu. Zhao Fu didn't even have a chance to dodge, and the Underworld Ghost rushed straight at Zhao Fu. Zhao Fu's body turned into countless shadows as he dodged the attacks. [0↑ 9 △ Small ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ Net]
In actuality, this was quite helpful to Zhao Fu. Zhao Fu had to go through a certain process from behind the scenes to fighting. Even though he could directly obtain great power by raising his stats, Zhao Fu didn't know how to use this power, which meant that he lacked battle experience. After all, King's Power was a power that could only be developed through battle.
Zhao Fu quickly dodged, and this time, the Underworld Ghost's attack speed was even faster than before. There were a few times when Zhao Fu was almost hit.
It couldn't go on like this. Zhao Fu suddenly thought of the knife throwing skill he had mastered.
The Flying Dagger was a willow leaf-shaped blade that was about the same length as a dagger. The blade was very thin and abnormally sharp, making it extremely lethal. This was one of the long-range attacks that the [Assassin – Order] had mastered.
Zhao Fu had also prepared some of these throwing knives. Zhao Fu immediately retreated ten or so meters, took out two throwing knives, and threw them at the Netherworld Ghost. The two throwing knives were very fast and shot out like two rays of white light. Although the sound of the throwing knives tearing through the air was very soft and ordinary people might not notice it, the Netherworld Ghost's hearing was very sharp. It raised its hand and sent the two throwing knives flying.
Seeing this, Zhao Fu was not disappointed because he had thought of an idea. He could not help but smile. [0↑ 9 △ Small ↓ Say △ Net]
At the beginning, Zhao Fu had changed into a hoodie, revealing the side of his face. To outsiders, this smile seemed to be filled with mysteriousness and an indescribable sense of handsomeness.
This time, Zhao Fu attacked first, continuously using throwing knives to attack the Netherworld Ghost from different directions. Unsurprisingly, the throwing knives were all sent flying by the Netherworld Ghost.
However, Zhao Fu immediately threw out two more throwing knives. This time, it was different – after throwing out the two throwing knives, Zhao Fu unleashed his incredible speed and hid his aura as he followed behind the two throwing knives.
Bang! Bang!
The Netherworld Ghost waved its hands, and its claws, which seemed to be made of steel, once again sent the two throwing knives flying. At that moment, Zhao Fu attacked. He appeared in front of the Netherworld Ghost and swung his hidden blade at it. The Netherworld Ghost discovered Zhao Fu, and it opened its claws and swiped at Zhao Fu.
Just as the hidden blade and the claws clashed, Zhao Fu suddenly retracted his attack and dodged to the side. The instant that the Netherworld Ghost's attack missed, Zhao Fu used the hidden blade to cut open a wound on the Netherworld Ghost's side. The Netherworld Ghost furiously roared and raised its claws before slashing down at Zhao Fu.
Bang!
The Netherworld Ghost's long and powerful claws slammed into the ground, smashing open a large crater. By now, Zhao Fu had already appeared behind the Netherworld Ghost and stabbed out. The hidden blade gave off a black light as it stabbed into the Netherworld Ghost's heart from behind.
Immediately!
The Netherworld Ghost's body collapsed and turned into a gray gas that dissipated. A Netherworld Ghost Crystal fell to the ground, and after putting it away, Zhao Fu continued onwards.
…
Seven days later, Zhao Fu arrived at the end of the forest. During these seven days, Zhao Fu had killed 459 Netherworld Ghosts, and he had also collected 459 Netherworld Ghost Crystals.
Netherworld Ghost Crystals could be obtained by killing Netherworld Ghosts, but they weren't as rare as Soldier Souls. As such, Zhao Fu couldn't help but fuse the two Netherworld Ghost Crystals into his hidden blades. Now, the two ordinary hidden blades' stats had become like this.
[Hidden Blade]: Grade: Blue, Stats: Strength + 1, Agility + 1, Description: The Hidden Blade has been buffed by the Underworld Ghost's power, giving it bonuses when using Assassin skills. The Hidden Blade also ignores armour.
The hidden blades didn't have any stats, but now, not only did they give two stats, but they also gave bonuses to Assassin skills. This was especially so because of the armor ignore effect. In other words, even if you were wearing armor, the hidden blades would be able to pierce through you. As such, the hidden blades had become killing weapons.
After seven days, Zhao Fu finally arrived at the end of the forest. This meant that Zhao Fu was about to pass this stage. There was a large door at the end of the forest, and it was similar to the door from before. However, there were 50 or so Netherworld Ghosts standing guard in front of it.
Dealing with 50 or so Netherworld Ghosts at once was quite difficult. Zhao Fu thought about it and decided that his goal wasn't to kill Netherworld Ghosts but to pass this stage. He had already killed many Netherworld Ghosts, so Zhao Fu created some sounds in the forest to lure the Netherworld Ghosts over.
Now, there were only 20 or so Netherworld Ghosts left in front of the door. Zhao Fu didn't bother hiding and rushed over. After seven days of intense training, Zhao Fu had completely changed. Not only in terms of strength, but also in terms of temperament.
Under the hood, Zhao Fu gave off a mysterious and cold aura as he rushed over. The 20 or so Netherworld Ghosts discovered him and rushed over, and the two sides quickly clashed.
"Pu!"
As soon as they clashed, Zhao Fu tilted his head and dodged the Netherworld Ghost's claws. At the same time, he stretched out his right hand and stabbed through its heart. Everything was as fast as lightning, and Zhao Fu was incredibly familiar with this move.
Zhao Fu didn't even look at the Netherworld Ghost that he had killed. His gaze was cold as he stabbed his hidden blade into another Netherworld Ghost's heart. The Netherworld Ghosts that had caused a lot of trouble for Zhao Fu in the past were no longer a problem. Zhao Fu quickly killed these Netherworld Ghosts and put away the Netherworld Ghost Crystals that they dropped.
