— — -why is it a Title again?
Reading the lines of glowing text, Gu Qing Shan couldn't help but feel bored.
Comparatively, the five monsters that [Void War God] had to kill were all the most powerful existences within the space vortex, while the Title [Fear Fiend King] was merely a Title element bestowed by one of the more powerful existences.
Comparing the two, [Void War God] was still a bit more interesting.
Perhaps sensing his emotions, Gu Qing Shan suddenly felt his left eye itch.
Itch?
No, this isn't itch, it's transmitting some sort of emotion.
… desire.
Indeed, my left eye is yearning for something.
Gu Qing Shan suddenly realized.
In order to fuse the Shattered Worlds with the Divine Mountain of Sumeru, this eye became blind.
After that, I used the seven sword strikes of the Sacrificial Dance to kill the Soul Shrieker. To avoid being erased by the three Laws of Reality, I had all of the past fused into my left eye.
This caused my two World Techniques: [Parallel Dream] and [Space-Time Reversal] to disappear.
Without these two techniques, my ability to gather information as well as strategize during battle was greatly affected.
The new World Technique had been sleeping this entire time.
It was only now that my blind left eye finally showed signs of awakening.
A second later, the War God UI reacted and gave him the corresponding description:
[You've obtained the basic requirements for the Title [Fear Fiend King]]
[The World Technique in your left eye is expressing its desire to you. It requires these basic requirements in order to form its first ability]
[Are you willing to give up the Title [Fear Fiend King]?]
Gu Qing Shan pondered briefly, then answered in his mind: "I am willing"
[The World Technique is about to fuse with the corresponding requirements of the Title [Fear Fiend King]]
[This process will take approximately an entire day]
[Please wait patiently]
Gu Qing Shan then smiled at the old man and nodded: "Thank you, sir. Then, my Title shall be 'Fear Fiend King'"
The old man smiled: "Qin, it's already late, take him to his room to rest. Tomorrow, explain the high-level rules of the Guild to him. Furthermore, give him what he deserves as a 'Sealing Hitman'"
"Yes, President," Qin said respectfully.
The old man said, "Alright, that's all for today. I hope that in the days to come, we can continue to be like today, constantly adding new blood. Only then will the guild grow stronger day by day."
"Yes," everyone replied in unison.
…
The next day.
Gu Qing Shan played with a brass key in his hand as he followed behind Qin to tour the entire guild.
This brass key could open his personal resting room.
As long as she arrived at the resting area, inserted the key into door "21", and opened the door, Gu Qing Shan would be able to reach an island.
There were all kinds of facilities on the island.
This was a small world that the Assassin's Guild had created out of thin air. It belonged exclusively to Gu Qing Shan and was specifically used for resting.
Every Sealing Assassin had a lounge like this.
Gu Qing Shan finally had a good night's rest.
Qin said as she led the way.
"As a Sealing Assassin, you have the right to come into contact with missions of the first to the third level and obtain information of that level."
"Every month, you must complete two missions, after which the Guild won't care about you and you'll be free to do as you please"
"Only during extremely special circumstances would the Guild issue a compulsory conscription, and during those circumstances, you must obey their orders"
Gu Qing Shan smiled: "For example, last time in the Seaside world, was that a compulsory conscription?"
"Indeed" Qin replied.
"Furthermore, after you complete two missions, you can also accept missions from outside, but you must hand in 30% of the profits for each mission. In exchange, the Guild will provide you with the necessary information, manpower, and even assistance"
Gu Qing Shan replied: "That's very fair, I can accept a mission right now."
Qin stopped and waved her hand in the air.
A large number of densely packed forms appeared in front of the two of them.
"Take a look, you can accept any mission labeled as level 1, level 2, or level 3" Qin told him.
Gu Qing Shan looked at them.
The first thing he saw was a mission labeled 'level 2', which read:
[Head to the 900 million World Layers and assassinate the void monster: Face Stealer]
[It is an information broker with a bounty on its head by many organizations, it has killed many of its collaborators and learned too many secrets that it shouldn't know. Currently, a total of five organizations have offered a price for its head]
Gu Qing Shan shook his head.
Because the Space-Time Coin granted me the power of [Distortion], the prerequisite for this power was that I couldn't interfere with what was currently happening in the 900 million World Layers.
And at this point in time, my past self and Lin were heading to the Bramble Bird Kingdom together.
That's why I definitely can't accept any missions related to the 900 million World Layers.
Gu Qing Shan's gaze moved down, quickly attracted by another mission:
[Kill the Wraith realm's Wraith General: Chang Mu, bring his head back to turn in the mission]
How interesting …
Gu Qing Shan's gaze moved forward, only to find that this mission was a level 5 mission.
I can't accept a level 5 mission.
"Qin, the Wraith realm's Wraith General doesn't seem to be particularly strong, so why is the mission's level so high?" Gu Qing Shan couldn't help but ask.
Qin explained: "The Wraith realm can be considered one of the most difficult worlds to enter, all of its checkpoints use Causality Law techniques, unless invited by the wraiths themselves, it's very unlikely that an outsider would be able to enter, and even if they did, it would be very difficult to escape, which is why the mission's level is so high"
So that's why.
No wonder the Wraith artifact spirit didn't directly transport me into the Wraith realm.
"Then, our Hitman Guild must have a way to enter, otherwise, wouldn't no one be able to accept this mission?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"We do have a spell, but this spell is extremely expensive and would only be used when the mission can be completed" Qin replied.
"In other words, only an Unsolvable Hitman or Unlivable Hitman would accept this mission for the Guild to help them infiltrate, is that correct?"
"Correct"
Gu Qing Shan nodded in understanding.
Completing the mission well, quickly and efficiently, the Guild's evaluation of the Hitman would be higher.
This is the path to promotion.
— — seems like I'll have to think of a way to quickly become an Unsolvable Hitman.
Gu Qing Shan's gaze wandered around, then quickly chose a mission with a level 3 rating.
Qin helped him deal with it, then smiled and told him:
"Now that you have a basic understanding of the Guild's situation and accepted your first mission, there's only one thing left"
Gu Qing Shan asked: "What is it?"
Qin explained: "The Sealing Hitman has the right to choose one thing from the Guild, completely free of charge, and only once"
Gu Qing Shan asked with interest: "What is it?"
"Weapons, armor, Hitman skill books, money, an identity in a unique world, as well as a single mission exemption" Qin replied.
"I've thought about it" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"Already?" Qin was surprised.
A few minutes later.
The two of them arrived at the deepest part of the Hitman Guild, the equipment storage room.
A hunchbacked old man received them.
He observed Gu Qing Shan and said: "Ah — — so this is today's newcomer, I heard that the Guild Master personally gave you the codename 'Fear Fiend King', I've already heard about it, what kind of armor do you need?"
The hunchbacked old man waved his hand, summoning four sets of armor from the void of space.
A set of armor that exuded a tide of mana, a set of heavy full-body metal armor, a set of light leather armor, and a set of luxurious robes embroidered with various runes.
The hunchbacked old man began to explain:
"We have the Occult Rune Steel Armor, the Dragon Rider Heavy Armor, the Magic-soaked Leather Armor, as well as the Spellcaster Robe. These are all armors that are highly sought after by high-level Hitmen within the boundless space vortex, you can choose any one of them as your personal protective equipment"
"What's different about these armors?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"The Occult Rune Steel Armor contains a variety of unique powers, essentially allowing an Hitman to gain a few more skills out of nowhere, so it's highly sought after"
"The Dragon Rider Heavy Armor doesn't have any other abilities aside from its outstanding defensive capabilities. It was originally designed based on the defensive capabilities required to defend against the attacks of dragons, but its only weakness is that it's too heavy due to the use of too many precious metals, making it unsuitable for quick attacks and movement"
"The Magic-soaked Leather Armor — — - although its defensive capabilities are a bit lacking, its advantage is that it's very light, not only does it not affect movement, it can also further enhance one's own abilities"
Gu Qing Shan was a bit emotional.
— — -it's been a long time since I've worn armor.
A good set of armor for a close-combat Profession like a sword cultivator was extremely useful.
On the battlefield, if a sword cultivator didn't need to worry about their own defense, their fighting strength would almost double!
Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit, then asked: "Melody's leather armor is used to increase her speed?"
"That's right, the leather armor can increase one's own abilities, of course, you'll need to familiarize yourself with the armor in order to be able to use it with ease"
The hunchbacked old man nodded, then continued: "The Spellcaster Robe is completely different from the other three types of armor, it can store several spells that can be immediately unleashed during battle, this is something that the other armors can't compare to"
Hearing the introduction, Gu Qing Shan already had an idea, so she pointed at the pure metal armor and said: "I want this Dragon Rider Heavy Armor"
"Ah, so it's someone who's confident in their own strength. Very well, you can give it a try"
The hunchbacked old man pointed his finger, sending the pure black metal armor in front of Gu Qing Shan.
Dong!
The armor lightly touched the ground, giving off a heavy sound.
