Chapter 84: Supreme and Invincible…

However, Su Sheng also had a somewhat different idea at the same time.

From his gear you could tell this assassin was likely a solo player.

If so, Su Sheng wondered whether he could recruit him into the Assassin Alliance.

"This…"

That assassin player obviously hesitated a bit.

Not knowing what he was pondering, after a long while the assassin player gritted his teeth: "That's Shadow Submerge; I'm a special class, Shadow Walker, and so far I haven't found any monster that can detect my stealth."

Huh??

Su Sheng raised his eyebrows, Hidden Class?

When did the Hidden Class become so worthless?

The tiny Wutong Town, plus me and Li Wenwan, plus this guy in front of me, makes three.

But after thinking it over, Su Sheng also came to terms with it.

Although the Hidden Class is rare, with hundreds of millions of players in the country, the lucky ones are definitely not just me.

"So you were still sneaking just now?"

Su Sheng asked doubtfully.

"Yes, even that boss can't detect my stealth." The assassin nodded.

"And that time you suddenly appeared behind me just now, that was also a skill, right?" Su Sheng continued to ask.

Since he'd already spoken, the assassin didn't hide it: "Yes, Chase Shadow, directly appearing at the target's rear shadow position."

"Awesome."

Su Sheng exclaimed in praise.

He blushed a little, scratched his head: "It's not that impressive; I just have higher stealth attributes, with no attack bonuses."

"As an assassin, in a sense, stealth is more important than attack."

Su Sheng said with a smile.

"It's not like you didn't notice me." The assassin looked at Su Sheng: "So, how exactly did you spot me?"

Su Sheng smiled without a word, pointing at his feet.

He froze, then lowered his head to glance; after a moment he came to, looked back at where he'd walked, and his face flushed slightly.

Obviously, he also realized the problem.

Footprints!

Where he'd walked, there were very obvious footprints.

Although his stealth couldn't be detected, players aren't monsters; with such obvious footprints, anyone would know someone was there.

"Not just footprints, all kinds of clues can track your trail."

"Breathing, heartbeat, even airflow…"

"This is a virtual-real game; what exists in reality also exists in the game." Su Sheng patiently explained.

"Is this your first time playing this kind of virtual game?"

Su Sheng, seeing he looked young, asked.

"Hmm." He nodded: "Before, in Heroes, my family didn't allow me to play."

"This time, in Contending for the Deer, I don't know why either; my mom originally disagreed, but my dad in the army sent me a game headset, and then my mom agreed."

Hearing that, Su Sheng blinked: "Your dad? From the army?"

He nodded.

He's the son of a soldier.

But…

Why would his dad send him a game headset?

Reasonably, in Huaxia most parents view games as synonymous with disaster.

Including Su Sheng's parents back then—after Huan Jie earned a house from the game, the old couple's stereotypical view of games began to change.

Otherwise, Su Sheng back then wouldn't have secretly played games with Chen Guan.

Also thanks to the anti-addiction system not being so extreme back then; otherwise, when Heroes launched ten years ago, 15‑year‑old Su Sheng and Chen Guan wouldn't have been able to enter the game.

The current Contending for the Deer requires a minimum age of 18.

"So how did you end up here?"

Su Sheng looked at him somewhat puzzled: "With your level and gear, you obviously can't beat the monsters here."

He scratched his head: "I'm just wandering around; fighting monsters is hard for me, I've teamed up with a few groups, but they all think I'm too noob."

Then he blushed a bit: "My controls really aren't good."

"Besides, this class doesn't give any attack bonuses."

"So…"

Hearing that, Su Sheng felt half‑laughing, half‑crying: Is a Hidden Class player really being despised like this?

"How did you get this Hidden Class?" Su Sheng muttered, annoyed that even a newbie could obtain it.

"I chatted with an old man, then played hide‑and‑seek with him; he couldn't find me, so he gave me this dagger and I changed class." The assassin scratched his head.

??

Su Sheng was full of question marks.

"It's a small problem; controls can be learned." Su Sheng continued speaking.

"Yeah, so I just ran around on my own; anyway, these monsters can't detect my invisibility."

"I came here, saw you fighting monsters, and thought there might be a treasure chest or something, so I decided to check."

Hearing this, Su Sheng could neither laugh nor cry; so far, Su Sheng still doesn't know whether Teng Long Company's game has an outdoor treasure chest mechanism.

Previously, the heroes only found treasure chests in some special maps or inside dungeons.

"Add me as a friend; I know a group of people, they're all assassins, I can have them teach you."

Su Sheng looked at the other person and said.

"Really?!" the other person obviously showed some surprise.

Su Sheng chose to send a face-to-face friend request.

"Mo Wen Qianchen? Are you Mo Wen Qianchen?" the other party exclaimed in surprise, then quickly agreed to the friend request.

In the game Contending for the Deer, probably few players don't know the nickname Mo Wen Qianchen.

After all, on the forum, Su Sheng's related deeds are still the hottest topic.

"How? Am I very surprised?" Su Sheng said with a smile.

"No wonder you can kill such a high-level monster; turns out you're Mo Wen Qianchen."

"You're amazing."

From him, Su Sheng seemed to… see Shadow Wing's silhouette.

A novice operator encountering a max-level expert naturally feels full of admiration.

"Sheng bro, Sheng bro, are you busy?"

Just then, Chen Guan's private chat came in.

"What's up?"

Su Sheng replied to Chen Guan, while also checking his friend list.

Level 13.

Poor kid.

Nickname: Zhizun Wudi Yangyang

??

What a chuunibyou name.

"Hello, Mo Wen expert, I'm Shen Yang?" Shen Yang directly said his real name.

"Shen Yang??" Su Sheng heard this and was a bit surprised.

"Cough cough, the 'Yang' in my game name, my surname is Shen, but my home is actually in Shen Yang, it's a homophone."

Talking about his game nickname, Shen Yang still felt a bit embarrassed.

Obviously, he himself knows just how chuunibyou his game nickname is.

"Good buddy." Su Sheng directly called him a good buddy.

"We have a brother who discovered a wild boss, and it's not weak; we're all assassins, not easy to handle, Sheng bro, come over when you have time."

Seeing this, Su Sheng grinned; isn't this a coincidence?

"Coordinates." Su Sheng didn't waste words.

"Also, I've prepared a surprise for you." Su Sheng continued.

"A surprise? What surprise?" Chen Guan looked bewildered.

Su Sheng glanced at Shen Yang, who looked at him admiringly, and gave a silent smile.

A hidden-class assassin is definitely a surprise for the Assassin Alliance.

Although Shen Yang currently can't fully unleash the strength of this class.
