Chapter 5: The Killer
In the killer, the real master judgment criterion is never to invite a bunch of martial arts masters to fight in a ring, and the two players take the stage to fight and then fight alone, but who can be killed.
There are no rules, no restrictions, no morals, as long as I can kill you, I am a higher killer than you.
So the danger of the killer is not only the danger of completing the assassination mission, but also the fact that other killers on the leaderboard may list you as an assassination target, because he has to kill you to make him rank higher.
The higher the ranking, the higher the cost of killing!
It seems that everything is inextricably linked to money.
However, the most terrible killer is the killer who is not ranked on the killer list at all.
Xiaoyaozi should be regarded as such a killer now.
He has disappeared for five years, and compared to five years ago, he has gone up an unknown number of steps, and it is precisely because of his fake death that no one knows Xiaoyaozi's current strength.
In addition to killing the king, he may expose himself.
However, he had a reason other than to kill the king.
Because he's a killer.
There is only one way for a killer to survive, and that is to kill.
After Xiaoyaozi "died", after hiding his name incognito, he found a small town by the sea, built a room by himself, and then settled down.
This stay is three years.
Three years later, he left town, changed his name, and resumed his career as a killer.
Killer is his profession after all, and it is also the way he survives.
Now he has changed his name to Bai Xiao.
Xiaoyaozi took the bear, sometimes he spent the night in the broken temple, and sometimes he went to the inn to ask for a first-class room.
Xiong has been following Xiaoyaozi for half a month.
In the past half a month, Xiong practiced this move whenever he had time, and the only move he could make was also his trick - a sword stabbing at the sun.
Everything seemed to be peaceful.
It's night, and the moon is on the willow tops.
There was a faint sound coming from the roof.
The bear had been sleeping soundly, and the long hours of practice had exhausted almost all of his energy.
However, as a killer and has been in this circle for more than ten years, Xiaoyaozi clearly noticed the abnormality.
Xiaoyaozi closed his eyes, pretending to be still sleeping, but one hand was already holding the sword beside him.
More than a dozen roof tiles were quietly removed.
Then, a hemp rope was dragged down the opening under the tiles to the ground.
A sneaky figure slid down the rope.
He crept to the bed where Xiaoyaozi was, pulled out his dagger, and was about to stab it down.
A cold light flashed on his neck.
Xiaoyaozi's sword was as fast as a ray of light, leaving no trace, and it wiped the man's neck with a single sword.
Xiaoyaozi lightly wiped the blood stains on the sword off the man's body, and then began to carefully search the person's entire body.
When he rolled over the man's wrist, Xiaoyaozi's eyes suddenly widened.
At this person's wrist, there is a wavy line, just like ~~~.
This mark, Xiaoyaozi is very familiar, as the killer of the Dark River Killer Group, there will be such a sign on the wrist, Xiaoyaozi also has it, but later, Xiaoyaozi erased this sign.
How do I erase the marks of an imprint?
With a new brand, cover the old one.
It used to be a wavy wrist, but now it is imprinted with a small and delicate sword.
Some people in the killer industry may know that this is a killer group that has only emerged in the last two years - Sword Gate.
But many people don't know much about this killer group.
In fact, this killer group was created by Xiaoyaozi, but in the Sword Gate, there is only one person, and that is Xiaoyaozi.
Xiaoyaozi came and went without a trace, left after taking the task, and disappeared again after handing in the task and taking the money.
Why would the people of the Dark River come and kill themselves?
Xiaoyaozi began to think in his heart, could it be that the people of the Dark River Group had discovered his fake death and wanted to carry out a new round of wanted hunting for him?
Rao is Xiaoyaozi's current level is already very high, but if he faces a killer group that spares no effort to hunt down, Xiaoyaozi will also be very stressed, after all, he is not invincible in the world.
After thinking for a while, Xiaoyaozi continued to grope on the body of the killer of the Dark River Group in front of him, and finally, he touched something familiar on the killer's waist, which was a small card-like thing, which recorded the task that the killer received. Only when the killer completes the mission and returns with the token and this card can he get the bounty.
From this card, Xiaoyaozi already knows everything.
Wang Yuanwai is really not alone, after killing Wang Yuanwai, the people behind him can no longer sit still.
So, in the killer world, another new piece of news was released, and the person who found the killer who killed Wang Yuanwai and killed this person will be rewarded with a thousand taels.
As soon as the news was released, many people were stunned.
Bounty thousand taels, what is the concept?
Every day, big fish, big meat, good wine, and good food, you can't use it up in a lifetime.
But if you think about it, everyone is relieved.
Outside of the king, who is that?
Big tyrants.
If you want to make a fortune outside the king, it is a mountain of gold.
A thousand taels of gold is only half of the property of the king.
But what everyone doesn't know is that this task was not issued by Wang Yuanwai's family, but someone else.
Xiaoyaozi touched the killer's task card and fell into deep thought.
The killer in front of him has taken the task to kill himself, that is to say, his identity has not been revealed, otherwise, the killer's card will definitely read: Kill the traitor Xiaoyaozi.
Thinking of this, Xiaoyaozi slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
Walked to the hemp rope, looked at the roof, and found that Xiaoyaozi, who was nothing unusual, stretched his waist, returned to bed, and began to rest.
God, it's getting late, and tomorrow, we have to hurry.
However, where is Xiaoyaozi going to take the bear?
The eastern sky is white with a fish's belly, which means that a new day is coming.
Bears are still accustomed to waking up early, taking advantage of the morning time to practice a few more times in the morning to stab the morning sun.
When the bear opened his eyes, got dressed, and got out of bed, he suddenly screamed "Ah~"
"What's the matter, the fuss, the early morning, and the reason why you don't let the teacher sleep?" Xiaoyaozi's lazy voice came slowly from the other bed.
"Master, how can there be people on the ground here, it seems that they are still dead people!" Xiong had seen a dead person for the first time since following Xiaoyaozi, and it was so close that Xiong couldn't accept it for a while.
"If you're dead, you're dead, just clean up in a while, be a killer, kill people all day long, if you're not careful, you may be killed at any time, a rookie like you, if you don't practice diligently, it's very dangerous!"
Xiaoyaozi did it on purpose.
