As soon as the first test began, a hidden ninja instantly attacked with a cold attack aimed at Chen Xiao's throat.
This blade was too fast. It was like a bolt of lightning, glaring and cold as it tore through the silent air!
"Hehe, this idiot's token belongs to me."
It was a Sakura Island ninja. His entire body was pitch-black, and his aura was obscure. The dagger in his hand was like a deadly poisonous snake.
Many people who were watching in the dark couldn't help but shake their heads and sigh.
"I was still one step too slow. Someone beat me to it."
"This token already has an owner. Let's go look for the next one."
In many of the trial takers' eyes, Chen Xiao's token was undoubtedly the best one to get. They regretted that they were too slow and that someone else beat them to it.
The moment the dagger fell, a thin curtain of light suddenly rose from the ground.
The dagger, which was powerful enough to cut through metal and stone, collided with the light screen as if it had collided with a steel plate. Not only did it not move an inch, but it also created a series of golden sparks.
"What?!"
The Sakura Island ninja was shocked. His face was filled with astonishment, and he couldn't believe his own eyes.
A light screen that appeared out of nowhere, which looked no thicker than a piece of paper, blocked his attack?
In the next moment, everyone saw it clearly.
The middle-aged man with a face full of stubble suddenly raised his hand and flicked his finger at the Sakura Island ninja.
A streak of light shot out like a meteor and crashed into the chest of the Sakura Island ninja who couldn't react in time.
Whoosh —
In an instant, a large amount of high-temperature lightning shot out and exploded at his waist. The energy was shockingly dense.
The Sakura Island ninja was still in shock. Facing the attack, he was immediately alerted and tried to retreat, but he was still one step too late.
"No!!"
He was severely injured and screamed in pain. His body was cut in half by the lightning as if it had been cut by a divine sword.
The upper half of his body was still retreating, but in the blink of an eye, he landed on the ground and was engulfed by the surging lightning.
Crackle!
Thunder rumbled like a ferocious beast roaring endlessly, intimidating everyone's soul.
Then, Chen Xiao walked forward and picked up a nameplate from the black embers. After putting it away, he returned to his original seat.
During this process, many of the witnesses were breathing heavily, and no one dared to make a sound.
"That Sakura Islander was killed just like that?" Someone sucked in a breath of cold air.
"What method did he use? Did anyone see it clearly?"
Even more people were horrified. They repeatedly recalled Chen Xiao's movements in an attempt to find some clues.
Only a few people frowned inwardly. They noticed that what Chen Xiao tossed out was a thumb-sized pebble. For a pebble to possess this kind of power, it was quite shocking.
"Could it be the legendary rune stone?"
Talismans and talisman stones were of the same kind.
However, the talisman was softer and lighter, but its power was weaker.
On the other hand, the Talisman Stone was hard, making it easier to carve runes on it. Even though it was inconvenient to carry it around, it usually had more power.
However, no matter which method it was, it was almost extinct and could only be seen in the records of ancient books.
"If it really is a Talisman Stone, then it will be easy."
Very quickly, some people came up with a plan and attacked again. If Chen Xiao only knew how to use the Talisman Stone to attack, then they had plenty of ways to play him to death.
"The number of Talisman Stones is limited, and it takes time to activate them. This amount of time is enough to kill him thousands of times!"
One of the assassins muttered to himself. He quietly hid his body as if he had burrowed into the ground and became one with the deck.
Another person climbed up to a higher place and looked for the blind spots of Chen Xiao's defense like a hawk.
Although the power of the Talisman Stone was shocking, it was not without its flaws. Every time it was used, it needed to be activated. It was not as easy to control as one's own strength.
"Hehe, so you still have Talisman Stone techniques?"
The black-robed guide laughed strangely in the dark. His gaze was deep, and no one knew what he was thinking.
In the blink of an eye.
Just as everyone was holding their breath, three figures dashed out from the dark. They were stealthier than poisonous snakes, and with fatal killing intent, they attacked Chen Xiao at the same time!
At this moment.
The deck under Chen Xiao's body suddenly twisted. Terrifying sharp needles pierced through the air, and it was enough to pierce through a person.
At the same time, the figure in the sky suddenly leaped tens of meters and appeared behind Chen Xiao's back like a black line.
The third figure was even more sneaky. His body turned into a cloud of black fog, blocking the sunlight above his head, and turned the surroundings into a dark domain.
Those who had the guts to participate in the Departed Island Assassin's assessment all had special abilities. Otherwise, most of them would only be cannon fodder in the assessment.
"Die!!"
The three figures were burning with killing intent that could almost burn the void, and blocked all of Chen Xiao's escape routes.
"No matter how good the Talisman Stone is, it can only attack one direction at a time. Being attacked from three directions, this person is dead for sure."
At this moment, there were already people shaking their heads, and they were sure that Chen Xiao would definitely die.
As an assassin, he gave up his advantage and chose to fight head-on, exposing his weakness to the sun. It could be said that he was extremely stupid.
Some of the more powerful assassins were sneering at this moment.
"You guys are finally willing to make a move. I thought you were all scared."
Right at this moment.
The corner of Chen Xiao's mouth suddenly curled up.
At the same time, three thumb-sized stones suddenly appeared in his palm.
Until this moment, his every move was all within the three assassins' expectations.
But then, a scene that left everyone dumbfounded appeared.
There was a flash of silver light in the void, and the three stones seemed to have a mind of their own. They suddenly flew into the air, and with a trajectory that completely defied the laws of physics, they shot out in three directions.
One pierced through the deck, one flew into the sky behind him, and the last one shot into the void not far away.
"How is this possible!?" Countless people were stunned.
This was unbelievable.
It was like someone shooting in front of him, but the bullet hit the person standing behind him!
Boom, boom, boom —
In an instant, the lightning shot out again, and directly turned Chen Xiao's body into a lightning plasma battery. The terrifying energy surged, and the air exploded violently.
Crackle, crackle!
The three assassins did not expect this at all.
By the time they wanted to retreat, it was already too late.
The lightning tore apart the deck, exploded the air, and shattered the void. A deafening roar echoed throughout the entire cruise ship!
"No — —"
The three of them were terrified, but they had already used their most powerful attack. At this time, the old force had already dissipated, and the new force had not been generated yet. There was no way for them to dodge.
The violent lightning swept across like a Category 18 hurricane, and in an instant, the three of them were blasted into pieces.
Only then did Chen Xiao get up and slowly put away the three nameplates.
His gaze swept across the cruise ship, and suddenly, he grinned, revealing a row of clean and shiny teeth.
"Who else wants to give me more nameplates?"
Many people hiding in the dark trembled for no reason, as if they had fallen into a ten-thousand-year ice cave.
Looking at the three assassins who had died without a trace, someone finally felt a chill.
"This is a super jinx …"
