Chapter 85: A Surprise for the Assassin Alliance

Let's go, I'll take you to find them.

Su Sheng looked toward Shen Yang and said.

"Is it the Assassin Alliance?" Shen Yang asked with some anticipation.

"Do you know the Assassin Alliance?"

Su Sheng inquired.

"Mm-hmm, I saw your post on the forum, Master Mo Wen, so I know." Shen Yang nodded.

After reading Su Sheng's related posts on the tieba, one can roughly see that Su Sheng has a close relationship with the Assassin Alliance.

After all, when Su Sheng first appeared on the forum during the hack controversy, when facing Qiancheng Muxue's Thousand-Person Team.

The one who showed up to save the scene was a member of the Assassin Alliance.

Later, in the matter concerning the Other Shore Flower Guild, there also seemed to be a trace of the Assassin Alliance.

Especially, in the forest of the Demon Energy Foxes, the Assassin Alliance's Hundred-Person Team followed Su Sheng to grind monsters, which already explains a lot.

Yes.

Su Sheng also answered truthfully.

"Can I really join the Assassin Alliance?" Shen Yang said, lacking some confidence.

He's only level 13, and his operation is still that weak.

Don't worry, follow me.

I'll now teach you how to conceal your traces.

Afterward, Su Sheng disappeared.

Invisibility.

Just like Su Sheng himself, Su Sheng's invisibility skill is already common knowledge, after all it was exposed before and even recorded on the forum.

Through the teammate icon, Shen Yang could still see Su Sheng's position.

But with the naked eye, one could completely not detect Su Sheng's traces,

Footprints…

None.

Breathing, cannot be heard.

Heartbeat, also does not exist.

Just now, all the various clues Su Sheng mentioned are completely nowhere to be found.

Shen Yang was stunned.

Listen carefully…

Afterward, Su Sheng began teaching these related concealment techniques.

While teaching, while letting Shen Yang try on the battlefield, while heading toward the coordinates given by Chen Guan.

…

…

Kong Lang, I've arrived.

Su Sheng sent a private chat, dispelled his invisibility, and walked boldly into this training area with Shen Yang.

Brother Sheng!

Brother Sheng!

Three or four assassins appeared, smiling as they greeted Su Sheng.

Meanwhile, Shen Yang looked at this scene somewhat curiously, feeling…

It feels just like a certain gang in Master Stephen Chow's kung fu movies.

(Paying tribute to Master Stephen Chow)

All right, don't look like you're mixing in society." Su Sheng noticed Shen Yang's weak expression and spoke helplessly.

Hehe, okay. Brother Sheng, I'll take you in.

Soon, we arrived at the BOSS's location.

A rhinoceros.

Horned Thick-Skin Rhinoceros (Normal BOSS)

Level: 25

Attack: 440

Defense: 520

HP: 300000

Skills: Giant Horn Charge, Thick Earth Skin Layer, Trample

Description: brief

The Assassin Alliance currently has no players above level 20; the BOSS's attributes are what Su Sheng saw after touching it.

Quite a high-defense low-attack, with thick HP.

Of course, the low attack is only relative to Su Sheng.

For other players, an attack power of 440 is also quite threatening.

Su Sheng looked around at the rhinoceroses; they are obviously all monsters with thick HP and high defense.

Are you training here?" Su Sheng asked doubtfully.

Logically, this kind of monster shouldn't be the training target for Assassin Alliance players.

As a high-attack high-agility fragile skin, the training target for assassin players is normally also a similarly high-attack low-defense fragile target, which is easier to deal with.

Hehe, we originally didn't want to draw attention from these guys, but here there are basically no players, their blood is too thick and defense high, so nobody wants to fight them.

But their movements are also rather slow, it takes a bit more time, but it's safe.

Chen Guan grinned and said.

At this stage, most players mainly target twenty-level monsters.

Twenty-five-level monsters are relatively rarely attacked by players; furthermore, this kind of thick-skinned, thick-fleshed monster is even more disliked by many players.

Immediately Su Sheng had some doubts: "Although this guy is thick-skinned and thick-fleshed, according to your abilities you should be able to take it down, right?"

"Hehe..." Chen Guan laughed a little embarrassedly.

"That stomp is an area-of-effect damage skill; we pure assassins are squishy, getting hit by one could possibly insta-kill us."

"Sheng bro, if you can come, there's no pressure; if you're not available, we'll handle it ourselves."

"Tsk, alright." Su Sheng nodded.

This rhino boss, although thick-skinned and thick-fleshed, is basically no problem for Su Sheng.

Even, its attacks cannot break through his defense.

Who made Su Sheng's equipment stats too overpowered.

Mainly it's the level‑10 Dragon Scale shield; as an orange epic, even though it's level‑10 equipment, its stats are comparable to level‑40 gear.

Not to mention just that the blue shield dropped by the ultimate magic puppet at level‑35, compared to the Dragon Scale shield, overall still falls short.

"By the way, Sheng bro, you said you'd give me a surprise?" Chen Guan spoke up.

"Hehe, Xiao Yang, come out and say hello to everyone." Su Sheng grinned.

"Hello everyone, I… I'm Shen Yang…"

Shen Yang looked at the surrounding Assassin Alliance players, a bit nervous.

Assassin Alliance…

Solo player assassins are generally looked up to.

Especially someone like Shen Yang, a novice assassin just out of the woods.

"Shen Yang?"

"Is that the Shen Yang?"

Everyone's reaction was pretty much the same as Su Sheng's initially.

"Cough cough..." Afterwards Shen Yang, with a bashful face, displayed his game nickname, almost inaudibly saying: "This Yang."

"I c"

"Niu b"

"Impressive…"

Such a chuuni game nickname is really rare.

"Alright, everyone be serious." Su Sheng waved his hand.

Chen Guan, on the other hand, didn't say anything, just a young little assassin.

Just, is this the surprise?

Chen Guan looked at Su Sheng doubtfully.

Although the two haven't really interacted in seven years, after all they are die‑hard friends.

A glance, and Su Sheng understood Chen Guan's meaning.

Su Sheng smiled faintly: "Xiao Yang, show us a trick."

"Okay." Shen Yang nodded.

Swish~

Shen Yang's whole body directly vanished.

"Hmm?"

The Assassin Alliance players present all froze, what the heck?

Invisibility?

No…

"I'm going…"

Chen Guan lunged forward.

Likewise a renowned expert, Chen Guan's reaction was naturally not slow; after a moment's stunned pause he reacted, and Shen Yang actually appeared behind him.

"What the heck?" Chen Guan turned his head dubiously to look at Shen Yang.

Being able to appear silently behind Chen Guan, there aren't many people in the whole gaming circle who can do that.

Even Su Sheng might not be able to succeed 100% of the time.

"The assassin template's hidden class."

Su Sheng said with a smile.

"!!"

"!"

Basically everyone around are core Assassin Alliance players; even the eight‑person Ten Court Yanluo is among them.

Everyone instantly stared at Shen Yang with burning eyes.

Feeling the scorching gazes of everyone, Shen Yang somewhat unnaturally shrank his neck.

"Moreover, he's still a solo player, currently intending to join the Assassin Alliance—surprising or not?" Su Sheng said with a smile.

"Too surprising, Brother Shen Yang, the Assassin Alliance welcomes you!" Chen Guan said excitedly.

"Assassin Alliance family, assassins just come." Liu Mang was messing around on the side.

"However, they just started playing the game; some things you need to teach him patiently." Su Sheng continued speaking.

"Don't worry, Sheng Ge, we Ten Court Yanluo will personally bring him." Yu Lin patted his chest and said.

"Alright, let's start the boss." Su Sheng clapped his hands.
