"Does that mean there's a chance?" Liao Xing squinted his eyes and asked.
"Of course, when that person returns to our world, Black Cat should be able to find him" Jang Young-ho answered.
Hearing this, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
Seems like this time, the Game of Eternal won't be able to win like it thought it would.
"Impartial Goddess, take Jang Young-ho downstairs to buy some strawberry pie" Gu Qing Shan said.
"Got it"
After Jang Young-ho brought Black Cat away, Gu Qing Shan looked at the silent Ye Fei Li and asked: "What's wrong?"
Ye Fei Li answered: "I suddenly feel like, even though I'm strong, I'm still lacking a lot when it comes to killing"
Gu Qing Shan patted his shoulder, saying: "Many hitmen start learning how to kill from a young age, but you only learned it halfway, so of course you can't compare to them"
"But your path of evolution is very long, in terms of absolute power, you're stronger than them, and you've gone much further than them"
Ye Fei Li muses: "The first time I met you, it was the same, I was clearly stronger than you, but I still couldn't kill you"
"Should I go learn something?" he asked.
"There's no rush, wait a bit, I'll give you something good" Gu Qing Shan smiled.
Liao Xing suddenly said: "We might be able to win this time, but if the Game of Eternal keeps changing its rules, we might not be able to solve it every time"
Ye Fei Li agreed: "That's right, even if we kill its champion, it won't be able to stop humanity's desire for eternal life"
"For us, the only thing we can do is wait" Gu Qing Shan crossed her arms and said naturally.
"Wait?" Liao Xing asked.
"That's right, killing the champion isn't enough, we have to wait until it shows a weakness" Gu Qing Shan said.
"The current situation is like two armies in a stalemate, both sides are looking for the other's weakness"
"Only when it makes a mistake will we be able to attack with all our strength and try to kill it in one strike," he said slowly.
Ye Fei Li and Liao Xing stared at him blankly.
"We … haven't used our full strength yet?" Ye Fei Li asked.
"Of course not." Gu Qing Shan squinted her eyes lazily, like a sleeping tiger.
Ye Fei Li and Liao Xing looked at each other.
"I suddenly feel like it wasn't a wise decision for me to come back from the universe and mingle with people like you …" Liao Xing muttered.
They waited for a while, watching the killer kill his way out of the encirclement one step at a time until he reached the end.
At this moment, Jang Young-ho returned with Black Cat.
The old voice suddenly resounded in everyone's mind.
『Spectators, this round of the Game of Eternal has ended』
"Our king has been born. For the sake of our king's dignity, let us first heal his wounds."
They closed their eyes and continued to watch the arena.
Almost a thousand human corpses lay on the arena, the only one still standing was a man holding a jet black flying dagger.
There were wounds all over his body, a terrifying sight to behold, but if you look closely, you'll notice that none of them were fatal.
On his face, there was a mask with the head of a wolf.
Following the old voice's instructions, he entered the black coffin and fully healed his wounds.
『This time's king is standing alone on the arena — — for the sake of safety, I'll keep his name a secret』
"The exciting moment has arrived."
『Let us see what kind of reward he got!』
A glowing treasure chest descended from the sky.
He had seen such a scene twice before. That person went to open the treasure chest again.
The chest opened.
A jet-black pill and a pair of pitch-black boots.
Without hesitation, the man took the black pill and put it in his mouth, swallowing it in just a few bites.
Because his face was hidden under a large bamboo hat, no one could see his expression clearly. All they could see was him punching the air, running around the arena, shouting to vent his excitement.
『This is the most meticulously organized challenge since the start of the game, so our reward is exceptionally generous』 the old voice loudly declared.
『Champion, please calm yourself down and take a look at this pair of boots』
Everyone's gazes converged on the pair of unassuming boots.
The man also turned around and walked back. He held the boots in his hands and examined them carefully.
"Sir, this pair of boots was custom-made for you."
『When you use your God's Chosen Skill, it can cover your entire body』
『Furthermore, it can change its appearance at will, making it impossible for anyone to recognize it!』
These words came out of nowhere, many of the spectators who didn't pay attention to this man before were also confused.
Hearing that, the man's entire body trembled, almost unable to hold the boots properly.
Gu Qing Shan and the others have been paying attention to him, so they know about his God's Chosen Skill, so they understand how precious these boots are to him.
This hitman's God's Chosen Skill is similar to [Space Travel], able to change the location of anything he throws.
This is already a top-tier combat-type God's Chosen Skill.
But if he puts on these boots and uses his God's Chosen Skill, not only his weapon, but his entire body will be able to travel through space and appear at a different location.
This is basically the same as the Divine Skill [Ground Shrink].
You can say that these boots have directly raised his God's Chosen Skill to the level of a Divine Skill.
Whether it's to save his life or to kill someone, this is an extremely powerful skill.
Gu Qing Shan opened her eyes, speaking in a low voice: "Seems like I'll have to go with you this time"
"Alright" Ye Fei Li said.
"Such a powerful skill, they're already using it, this game sure is putting a lot of effort into it" Gu Qing Shan muttered.
The old voice continued: 『This time's Game of Eternal has come to an end』
『We will protect the Champion's privacy to prevent those bugs from interfering with his life』
『Now, let us randomly teleport the Champion out — — even we don't know where he'll appear on the planet — — of course, we'll guarantee that he'll appear in a safe location』
The man's figure suddenly disappeared from the arena.
『Everyone, welcome to the next Game of Eternal』
『This game will guarantee the Champion's safety, you can participate without worry』
『We'll meet again in the next challenge』
The old voice disappeared.
The light dimmed.
The arena as well as the thousand corpses on it disappeared from everyone's sight.
"What did Black Cat say?" Gu Qing Shan immediately asked.
Jang Young-ho held up Black Cat and softly asked: "Baby, do you know where that person is now?"
Black Cat meowed a few times.
"It can feel that person's presence" Jang Young-ho said.
Gu Qing Shan sighed in relief and said: "Goddess, show me the world map"
The screen turned on. A map of the entire planet appeared in front of Black Cat.
Black Cat reached out its paw, silently paused in front of the map, then suddenly pressed on a certain spot.
"Zoom in" Gu Qing Shan said.
The map zoomed in. The spot Black Cat pressed on suddenly showed mountains, rivers, as well as several dozen cities.
Black Cat looked at it, then reached out its paw again and pressed on a certain spot on the map.
The map zoomed in again.
This time, it was a city.
Black Cat kept attacking.
Zoomed in.
Another claw.
Another claw.
Another claw.
Black Cat meowed again.
Everyone looked over.
Only to see that it was a martial arts dojo.
As the Apocalypse approached, martial arts dojos were one of the most prosperous industries.
"Adjust the satellite" Gu Qing Shan said.
The satellite image was shown.
On an outdoor martial arts dojo, over a dozen beautiful girls were warming up.
This was a martial arts dojo of the Fuxi Empire.
Today was a self-defense class for the girls.
"Where's the coach?"
"Why isn't he here yet?"
"I'm here to see him"
The girls were whispering to each other.
"Sorry, I'm late"
A slender and agile man walked out of the dojo, apologetically apologizing along the way.
The grumbling stopped.
"You're finally here"
"It's fine, it's fine, you're not too late"
"You're a few minutes late, did you go to find your girlfriend?"
"Nonsense, our coach is still single"
The girls looked at the man's handsome appearance and started talking at the same time.
Black Cat reached out its paw and pointed at the man on the screen.
"Wasn't it a random teleportation? I think he's the coach of this dojo, why did he return to this dojo? "Ye Fei Li was confused.
Jang Young-ho stared at the man without moving his eyes away.
"No, the real coach was killed by him" Jang Young-ho's eyes became serious.
"You mean — — this person is a fake?" Ye Fei Li was surprised.
Jang Young-ho nodded: "This is a top-notch hitman who's proficient in disguise, voice mimicry, and bone shrinking"
Ye Fei Li finally understood.
"This person is too cautious, as soon as he was randomly teleported, he immediately stole someone else's identity and hid here" he shook his head.
On the satellite image, the man smiled apologetically and said: "Then, we'll begin our fist technique class now"
"Drink some water first, you seem to be in a hurry" one of the girls handed him a bottle of water.
"Thank you"
The man received it with his left hand, but didn't drink it and simply put it aside.
The girls didn't say anything as they saw it, since he's already accepted it, he'll drink it later even if he doesn't drink it now.
The man quickly walked up to the girls, took off his jacket, and made a punching pose.
The large tattoo disappeared. There was nothing on his arm.
His skin was tanned, clearly a result of working under the sun for a long period of time.
This made him completely different from the previous person.
The girls looked at their coach's punching pose and began to follow.
The man scanned through the room, but didn't notice anything out of the ordinary.
Only then did he imperceptibly nod his head.
"Alright, first of all, we'll learn a new fist technique. Everyone, watch my demonstration, then we'll do it together"
The man went into teaching mode and spoke seriously.
Space.
The S.W. Divine Temple.
"That's enough, it's time for us to go on stage" Gu Qing Shan said.
"Let me kill him myself, my ears need to evolve" Ye Fei Li said.
Gu Qing Shan very seriously told her: "You have to do everything you can, otherwise as soon as he escapes from your suppression, he'll quickly run away — — his speed has been adjusted by Elemental Lightning, so he's very fast, we might not be able to catch up"
"Don't we still have you?"
"If I attack, I'll also use my full strength, I won't be able to take his life"
"Alright, I'll do my best to keep him here"
[Sir, do you want to broadcast it?] Impartial Goddess asked.
"I won't broadcast it this time, it won't be too late to announce it after we actually kill him" Gu Qing Shan said.
About half an hour later.
Gu Qing Shan and Ye Fei Li arrived at their destination.
The two of them stood on top of a tall building across from the Martial Arts Hall, putting on their armor.
At this point, the first fist technique lesson had already ended, all the students had left. The man stood on the empty outdoor platform, waiting for the next batch of students to begin the second lesson.
"The fist technique lesson is over, how do we attack?" Ye Fei Li asked.
"Directly, you go first, I'll follow" Gu Qing Shan said.
"I thought you'd have some sort of plan" Ye Fei Li said.
"This type of person has a very strong premonition, if you plan something, as soon as he notices something's wrong, he'll run away" Gu Qing Shan said.
"From the looks of it, he seems a bit uneasy"
"He's already noticed something, we'll attack now"
"Also, we have to finish the battle within 1 minute, otherwise the Martial Arts Hall will notice if this goes on for too long, drawing the Fuxi government's attention and it'll be troublesome" Gu Qing Shan said.
"I'll do my best"
Saying so, Ye Fei Li grabbed the air towards the open-air martial arts platform.
Boom — —
A blood-red glow shot up to the sky, turning the entire outdoor platform into rubble.
A black figure flew out from the blood-red glow, landing on the street.
The man looked around, then suddenly looked up.
Only to see a person standing high up.
A stiff and cold smile, a jet-black Mech suit, a pair of black wings on his back.
"The Murder Clown!" the man shouted in a low voice.
He leapt up, charging towards Ye Fei Li.
"How brave" Ye Fei Li's entire body was covered in a blood-red glow, charging at the man.
The man suddenly disappeared and reappeared behind Ye Fei Li, thrusting his blade forward.
Ye Fei Li couldn't help but stop, turning around to catch the dagger.
In the blink of an eye, the dagger disappeared and reappeared behind Ye Fei Li's head.
The brain isn't like other organs, so Ye Fei Li doesn't dare to take an attack head-on.
He could only tilt his body slightly, somersaulting in the air to dodge.
As soon as Ye Fei Li dodged, the man's body emitted a faint glow of lightning.
This is a Lightning-type acceleration Thaumaturgy.
The man's body moved, his speed suddenly increased, turning into a blurred figure as he flew towards another direction.
— — -the man doesn't intend to keep fighting.
This place is very close to the city center, as long as he finds a large commercial building and hides inside, the Clown won't be able to find him.
Unless the Clown can keep chasing him.
But that would cause a huge commotion, the Fuxi government as well as other forces might act.
At that time, the Clown will have to deal with the Fuxi Empire's war machine while he silently retreats.
While the man was thinking, a sword suddenly appeared in front of him.
This sword was slashing horizontally towards him.
The timing of the sword's appearance was perfect, right when he was about to hit the ground, unable to dodge.
This sword's speed, angle, and timing were all perfectly timed, so no matter how the man tried to react, he had no choice but to block this strike.
A strike with 60,000 tons of force.
There's no way to dodge!
Between life and death, the man shouted as the boots on his feet began to glow.
He disappeared from where he stood, and when he reappeared, he was already dozens of meters away.
But he didn't have time to celebrate, because the sword was still right in front of him, and it's even closer now.
"How is that possible!?"
The man's expression changed.
He couldn't understand at all.
I clearly used the power of my boots to warp through space to avoid this strike, so why is the sword still right in front of me?
Even a Martial Saint wouldn't be this fast.
The sword was still getting closer, bringing with it the shadow of death.
The man gritted his teeth, using all his strength to warp through space again.
This time, he changed direction and reappeared a few dozen meters away.
— — -but the sword was still right in front of him!
The man's expression changed, about to react, but the sword suddenly sped up.
A flash of light.
The man's head was sent flying.
