Chapter 39: The Arena

"Well, Traceless, are you interested in this mission?" Black Funeral asked in a deep voice.

"Me?" Ye Zhen was stunned for a moment, and then asked rhetorically, "Why do you ask me, why didn't you make a move yourself?" ”

Ye Zhen looked at the vicissitudes of life on the opposite side suspiciously, in terms of equipment strength, he might be a line higher than the black funeral, but if it was about assassination techniques, even if Ye Zhen was conceited, he would not dare to say that it was more powerful than the divine thorn in front of him.

"If I could, I wouldn't have asked you." As he spoke, Black Funeral took a sip of rum and looked a little regretful.

"How?" Seeing the slightly regretful expression of the black funeral, Ye Zhen couldn't help but be even more curious.

"Because, half a month ago, I made some pact with the flame tattoo." Black Funeral's face was a little complicated, he lightly held the transparent goblet glass, stared at the crimson wine in the cup, and said, "Although the Assassin League has a transcendent status in the game, after all, our headquarters is in the sphere of influence of the Heavenly Fire, and sometimes, it is really involuntary. ”

Hearing the somewhat helpless tone of the black funeral, Ye Zhen was suddenly confused, and couldn't help but feel even more confused, could it be that the power of the Heavenly Fire Burning Plains would be so terrifying that even the Black Funeral would be fearful?

"What do you have with the Fire Tattoo?" Saying that, for some reason, an inexplicable sense of loss suddenly rose in Ye Zhen's heart. In his opinion, the League of Assassins should be an organization that is beyond the guild and the like, how can this be.

"Actually, it's not as complicated as you think, I don't know if you remember when I was in a hurry to return to Greenland, it's because of this incident." Black Funeral recalled that after he assassinated Yi Jiangnan, he returned to the Green Kingdom in a hurry the next day, and he didn't even have time to complete the real battle with Ye Zhen, so he really had to return immediately, otherwise with his surname, he would definitely have a happy battle with Ye Zhen.

"Remember, I just don't know what happened?" Ye Zhen nodded and said, he joined the Assassin Alliance that day, so he still remembers it vividly.

"It's also to blame me for being too conceited, thinking that powerful assassins can be fearless of any search and pursuit, and never took those good and bad guilds in their eyes, so this happened." Black Funeral muttered, with a hint of self-reproach in his words. But soon, he picked up his spirits and continued, "Here's the thing, the Heavenly Fire Rebellion somewhere got an item called the Eye of Truth, which can spy on the player's name, even if it is set to hide, it is useless. After getting this prop, the guy with the flame tattoo sent someone to squat at the door of our headquarters with the True Eye for more than half a month, and collected the names of more than 90% of the members of the Assassin League in Grimm. Then he passed the roster to me and invited me to the Moonlight Tavern for a while. At that time, I was in Loulan. ”

"He's trying to blackmail you?" At the same time as Ye Zhen asked, he also secretly warned himself that he would have to be more careful in the future, he didn't expect that there were props in the game like the True Eye that could detect the name, it seemed that in addition to the Ring of Confusion and the Fog Shadow Trace on his body, there were many magical props in the game.

"It's impossible to say that you want to be coerced, if our Assassin Alliance was so easy to be coerced, it wouldn't have the prestige it has today." The black funeral drank all the rum in the cup, and said indifferently, at this time he showed his domineering and self-confidence as a god thorn. After a pause, he continued, "However, after three rounds of drinking, the flame tattoo made a very strange request. ”

"What requirements?" Ye Zhen was stunned for a moment, and immediately asked out loud.

"He said he could give me the list, but only if I couldn't participate in the assassination of any of the members of the Heavenly Fire in the future." Black Funeral explained.

Hearing the explanation of the black funeral, the corners of Ye Zhen's mouth suddenly crossed a touch of disdain, and he said disdainfully, "Is he afraid?" ”

"It's hard to say, the flame tattoo of this person, the strength is unfathomable, when the Heavenly Fire Rebellion and the Dream Empire were fighting, I have personally seen him kill hundreds of members of the Dream Empire with a single move. Moreover, his strength in the beauty of the woman is also very strong, and he is afraid that he can also rank in the top three in the whole game. Black Funeral said thoughtfully.

"A spell drops hundreds of people in a second?" Hearing the words of the black funeral, Ye Zhen's face also became solemn, and he asked, "Then you finally agreed?" ”

"It's a promise, the forces of the Heavenly Fire Plain are more terrifying than you think, although I am not afraid of him, but if the names of those brothers in the alliance are exposed, I am afraid that they will be accompanied by endless pursuit by various guild teams in the future, after all, we are assassins, and there are too many large forces to offend." Black Funeral sighed lightly, and continued, "Although our assassins are powerful, they are few in number. What's more, even if you and I encounter the hundred-member elite group of those guilds head-on, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with. I don't want them to be hunted down to level zero because of my momentary negligence. Moreover, the Flame Tattoo only required me not to assassinate the members of the Heavenly Fire Rebellion, and he would never have dreamed that there was another person in the Assassin League who was not inferior to me - Night Without a Trace! ”

"Passing the prize." Ye Zhen blushed for a moment, and quickly said, "You want me to take on the task of assassinating the Flame Tattoo?" ”

"Yes, there are no other assassins in the alliance who have a chance of success." Black Funeral nodded heavily, staring at the leaf mark on the opposite side with expectation.

From the perspective of a black funeral, the difficulty of assassination is naturally different from that of ordinary people, you must know that although the law profession is low in blood and low in sensitivity, the flame tattoo who is the president of the Heavenly Fire Rebellion almost always carries a guild core group wherever he goes, and his woman Cai Mei stays by his side all the time, and the terrifying combination of the two of them in this law battle alone is enough to make most assassins have no chance.

Hearing the words of the black funeral, Ye Zhen pondered for a moment, and then said, "It's not that I don't want to, it's just that now I have a difficult task with a limited time limit to possess me, even if I want to take it, I'm afraid it will take some time." ”

Ye Zhen said, with a helpless look on his face, 5 million is indeed an extremely tempting amount for him. However, the assassination mission can be done at any time, but the S-level hidden mission is unattainable, and a piece of legendary equipment, if it is taken to the auction house at this time, the value is likely to exceed 10 million!

"It's okay, as long as you agree, I'll wait to see you give Grimm a resounding slap in the face!" Black Funeral said without mind, after all, as early as when Ye Scar joined the alliance, he had promised that Ye Scar had absolute autonomy and was not responsible for anyone.

"Haha..."Ye Zhen smiled knowingly, and finally shifted the topic to his own intention, "Old Black, I don't know if there is any information about NPCs in the alliance?" ”

After chatting for so long, Ye Zhen couldn't wait, and he was determined to succeed in this S-level task.

"NPC profile? There are some, but they are not comprehensive enough, I just don't know which NPC's information you want? Black Funeral replied thoughtfully, although the intelligence function of the Assassin League is powerful, after all, it is an organization with the goal of assassinating players, and the intelligence function is mainly reflected in the detective of players.

"Pope!" Ye Zhen leisurely spat out two words.

"Pope Barcelona?" Black Funeral subconsciously asked, he was born in the Kingdom of Green, so naturally he would have some understanding of the Holy See.

Hearing the rhetorical question of the black funeral, Ye Zhen embarrassed for a moment, as if he didn't even know what the contemporary pope was called, but he thought it should be the Barcelona in the mouth of the black funeral.

"It should be him, is there any information about him in the Alliance?" Ye Zhen asked impatiently.

"Of course, there is naturally information on the head of the Holy See." Seeing Ye Zhen's nervous expression, the black funeral couldn't help but cry and laugh a little, he thought at first that Ye Zhen wanted some information to hide the NPC, but who knew that he was asking Pope Barcelona, who every player in the Green Kingdom knows.

"That's good." Hearing this, Ye Zhen suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Haha, I have already informed the brothers of the Intelligence Department, they will soon sort out the information and pass it over, take advantage of this effort, I will take you to the arena of our headquarters without a trace." Black Funeral stood up and spoke.

"No problem." Ye Zhen paused for a moment, and immediately followed, all the territories that belong to the player in the game can apply to the system for an arena where you can compete freely, of course, this requires a lot of gold.

With that, the two of them stepped out of the stone house and came to a stone staircase.

Following the black funeral down the stairs, an extremely large arena immediately appeared in front of Ye Zhen's eyes, surrounded by a faint milky white light mask, and there were hundreds of assassin players who were fighting in the light mask. Looking at the posture of this arena, at least it is a large arena that requires 100,000 gold coins to apply, it seems that Ye Zhen is wrong for this guy to blame the black funeral, you must know that an arena can cost tens of millions, not to mention a few broken lights.

"Wow, the head is coming!"

"Head, come and point me out, I'm about to be abused by this pervert of Leng Qing!"

"yes, it's time for you to give this girl a little color, we can't control him except you."

As soon as the Black Funeral entered, the Assassins who were sparring immediately stopped fighting and swarmed around. Their head black funeral is not only a well-deserved thorn in the game, but also a textbook-level master, if you can get his guidance, your skills can definitely rise rapidly.

Hearing the complaints of the assassins under him, the black funeral laughed loudly and said, "Leng Qing, you are bullying your brothers again, I can hear their complaints about you every time I come." ”

Following the words of the black funeral, Ye Zhen found the assassin named Leng Qing, with a graceful figure and a rather delicate appearance, among so many assassin masters in the alliance, the strongest was actually a woman!

Smelling the sound of black funeral playfulness, the assassin who was playing with a dark green dagger was cold, and looked around at the defeated generals who complained expressionlessly, and said lightly, "It's that they are not strong enough, hmph, men are nothing more than that!" ”

"Haha..."The black funeral was obviously accustomed to Leng Qing's tone of always killing a boatload of people with a rod, he smiled helplessly, and suddenly shifted his gaze to Ye Zhen, and said, "Today I want to introduce a brother to you, I think everyone should have heard of his name a long time ago, he is Maple Leaf!" ”

As soon as the words of the black funeral landed, the hundreds of assassin masters around them were in an uproar, they didn't notice the black-clothed assassin in the veil next to the black funeral at first, until they knew that this person was the maple leaf who had recently caused a lot of trouble in the Grimm Empire, and the discussion exploded.

"Ah, he assassinated the Destiny Hall President Light and Darkness Eternal Silence one after another, and then assassinated the Maple Leaf of the Dream Empire President who slashed the moon?"

"Damn, brother, you're so awesome, the nearest Green City has been turned upside down by you alone!"

"Maple Leaf, you should also be a duke-level assassin, head, when did our alliance have another duke-level assassin, why hasn't everyone received the news!"

"Yes, yes, every time a brother is promoted to a duke-level assassin, don't you announce it in the alliance, such as the flying man who was out of the limelight some time ago, you have notified it. There are only seven duke-level assassins in our alliance, so why don't you inform your brothers if you have one more? ”

Listening to the questions of many assassins, the black funeral suddenly became a little big, he had never told anyone the news that the maple leaf was the night without a trace, and these guys in front of him all knew that only duke-level assassins could accept assassination tasks of more than 500,000. At this time, he really didn't know how to explain it. In desperation, he had no choice but to cast a distressed gaze at Ye Zhen.

"It's me who asked not to make it public for the time being, hello everyone, I'm Maple Leaf, and I'm a Dark Dance Assassin." At the critical moment, Ye Zhen relieved the siege of the black funeral, and these assassin masters in front of him were not easy to fool, so they still had to divert their attention first.

Hearing Ye Zhen's explanation, everyone nodded thoughtfully, almost all players in the game who choose the assassin profession will be a little unusual, so it is easy to understand what various requests are made, and some of them have had similar experiences. Unlike the large guilds, the League of Assassins has very few rules for hard surnames, and the Assassins are free except for mission time. Of course, most of their free time is spent in the arena practicing their skills.

Just when everyone was curiously glancing at Ye Zhen, the 'newly-joined' duke-level assassin, a cold voice sounded in the air, and Leng Qing, who had not spoken, suddenly spoke, "Maple Leaf, I challenge you. ”

In the League of Assassins, there were only seven assassins above the Duke level, and Leng Qing was one of them. She has always been belligerent, and naturally she will not let go of Ye Zhen, who is also a duke-level assassin.

As soon as the cold words landed, the surrounding assassins suddenly coaxed, and they all looked at Ye Zhen and shouted excitedly.

"Yo, there's a drama to watch now, Brother Maple Leaf, teach this little girl a good lesson, let him know how good our men are."

"That's it, tell you to look down on our men, Maple Leaf will kill this girl, haha..."

"Maple Leaf, come on, for the dignity of men!"

"Maple Leaf supports you, for the sake of our 'surname' in the second half of our lives!"
