Chapter 3: Tao Baibai
"Team 64323..."
Bai Cangshu had also read some works of the Infinite genre, so he was not unfamiliar with the settings and rules of this so-called 【Infinite Dimension】.
It was just unexpected that he would encounter another team in his very first trial mission, and they appeared to be a faction whose trial mission conflicted with his own.
Is this the difficulty of a so-called Special Trial...
Bai Cangshu focused his attention on the team's number and learned that this team would enter this world in seven days.
In other words, the time left for him to complete his first mission was within seven days.
Moreover, the difficulty of this Special Trial did not stop there.
Tao Baibai is a villain character from the early stages of the Dragon Ball World, known for being sinister and powerful, holding the title of the world's number one assassin.
When Sun Wukong first encountered him, he was easily crushed by Tao Baibai, and at that time, Sun Wukong actually already possessed strength close to that of Master Roshi.
At the same time, Tao Baibai was the first in the plot to demonstrate the terrifying strength of a top-tier Martial Artist on Earth in this world.
He used Qi to heat bathwater to 200 degrees and bathed comfortably in such hot water; he used his cloth shoes to bounce up, block a sniper bullet, and deflect the bullet back to accurately kill the gunman;
He used his tongue to shatter the skull of a fairly strong fighter and kill them; he cut through a stone pillar as thick as a man could embrace with his bare hands, threw it, and then jumped onto the pillar to perform "Pillar Flight," traveling 2300 kilometers on the stone pillar in less than 4 minutes to accurately find his target...
Almost every feat had completely exceeded the comprehension of an ordinary person.
Tao Baibai is a monster-level powerhouse who has truly transcended the limits of a Mortal.
The test of such a person, I fear, will not be as safe and harmless as that of Master Roshi...
Creak, Bai Cangshu opened the door, and the wind outside immediately poured in, heavy with moisture.
It was clear that the altitude here was not low, and it was perhaps very close to the sea.
Bai Cangshu noticed that outside the room, several figures had already appeared; these people varied in height and build, but every face radiated coldness, and no one was chatting with each other, all just waiting there.
Bai Cangshu did not know if there would be other trial-takers among these people.
He had examined his own attire, which was a white T-shirt paired with black martial arts clothes, wearing flat-soled cloth shoes; these people were almost all dressed the same, as if it were a uniform arrangement.
Before Bai Cangshu could observe carefully.
Hum! A terrifying roar grew from small to large, and in the space of a breath, it was as terrifying as a fighter jet flying at low altitude.
A black dot appeared in the sky, and the next moment, a stone pillar smashed down from the air with a boom.
Boom!
The terrifying shockwave passed through Bai Cangshu's body as if it were tangible; he felt as if he were crossing the street during a typhoon.
The massive sonic boom and shockwave caused everyone, including Bai Cangshu, to lose their hearing for a short time, and their senses were also somewhat chaotic.
When the smoke and dust in his vision cleared, he saw that Tao Baibai, who had his black braid wrapped around his own neck, had already appeared before the crowd.
The man who had been knocking on doors one by one, wearing a blue Tang suit, was now standing at the furthest point.
Seeing that Master Tao Baibai was as terrifying as ever, he was the owner of this inn and could be considered one of the few people who could speak to Tao Baibai, yet he still instinctively felt fear toward Tao Baibai.
This was an inn on a mountaintop that only hosted special guests.
For example, customers who wanted to find the world's number one assassin to place an order, or like today, these assassins and madmen who were desperate to be apprenticed to Tao Baibai.
Step, step, step.
Tao Baibai strode forward step by step; Bai Cangshu's pupils contracted slightly, like a falcon. His dynamic vision was excellent, and the rhythm of every step Tao Baibai took and the distance he covered were precise to the smallest detail.
"Tsk, is this the so-called body control ability of a Martial Artist."
Tao Baibai, with his hands behind his back, came before this group of scum, suddenly reached out a finger, pointed at a giant over two meters tall in front of Bai Cangshu, along with several others, and said,
"You few, you are not worthy of learning my things, get out."
The giant was stunned; he was a hegemon of the underworld in his hometown city and had come to find the world's number one assassin to broaden his horizons, but he was to be kicked out upon the first meeting, and he immediately became enraged.
"Why!" "You haven't even seen my skills, on what grounds..."
Swish, plop! Two brief sounds appeared; Bai Cangshu only felt that the Tao Baibai in his eyes flashed for a moment. His pupils shrank, and he turned his head to look at the giant in front of him, only to see that this little giant, who probably weighed over 400 jin, was beginning to lose his balance.
"Uh... uh-wuh..."
After stammering twice, no sound came out in the end, and he collapsed with a boom, kicking up quite a bit of dust.
Only then did the others realize what had happened.
Several people showed expressions of horror, and some could not help but let out a short, subconscious gasp.
But Tao Baibai just flicked his braid indifferently and said,
"You, you, and you, you are also not worthy of learning from me, get out!"
This time, no one dared to question Tao Baibai's decision; all those who were pointed at turned and walked toward the bottom of the mountain.
Some even showed expressions of relief; Tao Baibai's habit of killing at every turn made them fearful.
Bai Cangshu looked around, and in the end, including himself, only 8 people remained.
There was a swordsman wearing a red face mask and holding a curved blade, a middle-aged man with a hunting rifle on his back, and even a woman dressed provocatively.
Seeing Bai Cangshu looking at her, she even pulled her shoulder strap down a bit and winked at Bai Cangshu.
Bai Cangshu knew that the remaining people were probably not easy to deal with; after all, those who could watch a killing without changing their expression all had some issues to a greater or lesser extent.
Moreover, Bai Cangshu also saw at this moment that the few people who had just been pointed out were all those who had shown horror or an intention to dodge after Tao Baibai appeared; the only exception was probably that giant, who had been right in front of Bai Cangshu and had not moved at all.
Yet he was the one killed.
The reason Bai Cangshu could think of was that Tao Baibai needed a target that looked tough enough to kill the chicken to scare the monkey.
Heh, he really is a villain, killing at the slightest disagreement.
Tao Baibai glanced at the few who remained, did not continue to say anything, and with a casual flick, a stack of envelopes slid down in front of them.
"Kung fu is a technique for killing. Here are some unspeakable Assassination Commissions; choose one for yourselves."
"Within seven days, the one who successfully completes the mission and gets the most bounty, I might reluctantly take in as a disciple."
The eyes of the crowd changed instantly; the woman who had been flirting earlier had a figure as flexible as a spirit snake, instantly twisting her waist and reaching out to grab an envelope from the air.
The man holding the curved blade slashed directly at the woman, but she dodged it by twisting her waist, and the others instantly began to fight.
Bai Cangshu stood where he was, not moving at all; he saw the movements of the few people fighting clearly—the trajectory of the scimitar's dance, the posture of the person gripping the gun with both hands...
After the few people finished their scramble, only an envelope, somewhat crumpled from being mauled, was left on the ground.
Only after seeing that everyone had left did Bai Cangshu lower his head to pick it up.
【Side Mission: Assassination Commission】
【Go to Nandu, meet the employer Abola, and kill the strike leader, Maji, for him.】
【Mission Reward: 500 Dimension Points】
Tao Baibai watched Bai Cangshu, who had not fought or scrambled, without any expression.
"Why did you not scramble? Is it that you do not wish to be initiated into my sect?"
Within these words, there was unexpectedly a hidden murderous intent.
Bai Cangshu seemed not to notice, shaking the envelope in his hand and revealing a smile.
"How could that be?"
"Your test is to complete the mission and bring back the most bounty; it is not about scrambling for the envelope. What difference does it make whether one gets it first or later?"
