Gentle Snow After Story 2
Just as Blazing Soul was about to hand over her treasure, her finger stopped above her bag interface as she looked in disbelief at the haughty and listless Zhao Yueru.
"Do I really just need to join Zero Wing?" Blazing Soul asked for confirmation, afraid she might have misheard Zhao Yueru.
Zhao Yueru's offer sounded too good to be true. The treasure Blazing Soul had offered was highly sought after by even the Twin Saints Alliance. Yet, Zero Wing was seemingly uninterested in the treasure and refused to help her in exchange for it. Instead, according to Zhao Yueru, Zero Wing would only help her if she became a member of the Guild. This was simply unbelievable.
"Naturally." Zhao Yueru nodded. Pointing at the assessment takers lining up behind her, she said, "I'm about to start a new round of tests. Do you want to participate in it?"
"I'll participate!" Blazing Soul stepped forward without hesitation.
Now that Blazing Soul was already surrounded and tracked by the Twin Saints Alliance, escape was not an option. If she wanted to keep her gains from the Ancient River Secret Land, her only choice would be to rely on Gentle Snow and Zhao Yueru.
Meanwhile, the Twin Saints Alliance's Tier 6 Assassin was stunned when he saw Blazing Soul making her way to Zero Wing's Residence. He couldn't understand what Gentle Snow and Zhao Yueru were thinking.
Besides the masked Assassin, the other players on the street were similarly shocked by this development.
"What's Zero Wing trying to do? Blazing Soul might have great potential, but is she worth offending the Twin Saints Alliance over?"
"Madness! These two beauties from Zero Wing must be out of their minds! Do they not know the consequence of offending one of the Six Great Hegemonic Powers?! The last upstart power that provoked the Twin Saints Alliance had its Tier 6 experts Soul Annihilated and its foundations uprooted!"
"There's also the recent incident with the Hellblood Banner adventurer team's commander, Thunder River. He used to be publicly recognized as one of the Ancient River Kingdom's top 20 Tier 6 experts. But because he competed with the Twin Saints Alliance over a Team Dungeon, not only did his adventurer team cease to exist, but he even got hunted to the point where he no longer dares to return to the Ancient River Kingdom. If not for two hegemonic powers speaking up for him, he might've even been erased from God's Domain."
All the bystanders excitedly conversed as they looked at Gentle Snow and Zhao Yueru. They all felt that Zero Wing was getting in over its head by challenging the Twin Saints Alliance. Zero Wing's excuse for sheltering Blazing Soul was especially laughable.
"Boss, do we take action?" a Level 153, Tier 5 Ranger from the Twin Saints Alliance asked the masked Assassin after seeing Blazing Soul enter Zero Wing's Residence.
The Twin Saints Alliance had over two dozen Tier 5 experts present. Although they stood no chance against Tier 6 experts in a straight fight, they could easily distract Gentle Snow and Zhao Yueru and create an opportunity to kill Blazing Soul, who was only a Tier 4 player.
"Wait." The masked Assassin reached out to stop the Tier 5 experts from taking action. Glancing at Gentle Snow and Zhao Yueru, he solemnly said, "Those two are strong. Although I can't see their exact information, they should be at the fourth-floor standard."
"They're both at the titled standard?!" the Level 153, Tier 5 Ranger exclaimed.
The majority of Tier 6 players in God's Domain were only at the third-floor standard, meaning they were Domain Realm experts who could only exhibit the standard of Bronze Combat Techniques with their every move. Even when it came to the Ancient River Kingdom's Six Great Hegemonic Powers, nearly half their Tier 6 experts were at this standard. Only a small portion of Tier 6 experts were at the fourth-floor standard and qualified to defend strategic positions in the Void Sea.
If Gentle Snow and Zhao Yueru were indeed fourth-floor titled experts, distracting them with the Twin Saints Alliance's present forces would be nigh impossible.
"Don't worry," the masked Assassin said, his voice carrying a hint of excitement as he looked at Gentle Snow and Zhao Yueru. "I'll keep them busy while the rest of you eliminate Blazing Soul. Make sure to act quickly. We'll have trouble escaping if the NPC guards and the other five hegemonic powers' forces arrive."
"Understood! Rest assured, Boss! She's only a Tier 4 player. Even if she's one of the top 10 rookies this time, she won't last long against us!" the Level 153, Tier 5 Ranger said confidently.
"Good. Wait for my signal," the masked Assassin said before making his way over to Gentle Snow and Zhao Yueru with slow and steady steps. At the same time, the Divine Might he radiated grew stronger, putting immense pressure on the surrounding players below Tier 6.
The masked Assassin's actions immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding players. Blazing Soul, who was lining up to take Zero Wing's test, couldn't help but grow nervous.
"Big Sis Yueru, be careful. That person should be Gray Robe, the Shadowless Ghost. He's the Twin Saints Alliance's Number Two Assassin," Blazing Soul said to Zhao Yueru. When she saw the masked Assassin's figure becoming blurry, she promptly activated her Tier 4 Legacy Berserk Skill Demon God Possession, instantly increasing her Basic Attributes by more than double.
At Blazing Soul's reminder, the bystanders on the street revealed expressions of surprise and excitement.
"Shadowless Ghost? He's the Shadowless Ghost?"
"Crap! The Twin Saints Alliance is going big this time! Wasn't Gray Robe supposed to be guarding the Lion's Roar Fortress in the Void Sea? Is the Twin Saints Alliance not afraid other hegemonic powers might use this opportunity to capture the fortress?"
"Heavens! I made the right choice to visit Ancient River City this time! I can't believe I'll get to witness Cicada's Cry, 75th of the 99 Absolute Techniques, in action!"
…
Despite the masked Assassin being right before their eyes, the bystanders on the street were unable to sense his presence. Many bystanders stared intently at him at this realization as if they had just seen some rare treasure.
"Now that the boss has used Cicada's Cry, these two beauties are dead!" The Level 153, Tier 5 Ranger grew excited when he saw the masked Assassin's figure becoming blurry.
There were countless combat techniques in God's Domain, and they could be categorized into four standards: Common, Bronze, Silver, and Gold. Among them, Gold Combat Techniques were akin to legends, and they were as rare as a phoenix's feather in the Greater God's Domain. There were also very few players who had mastered Gold Combat Techniques, and every one of them was an expert standing at the apex of the Greater God's Domain.
Coming in behind Gold Combat Techniques were 99 top-tier Silver Combat Techniques that were known as the 99 Absolute Techniques. They were also publicly acknowledged as the combat techniques closest to matching Gold Combat Techniques in the Greater God's Domain.
Among the 99 Absolute Techniques, Cicada's Cry ranked 75th. It was also the most sought-after footwork by Assassins. When a player executed it, their presence would fade, and others would have an incredibly difficult time perceiving them. It was akin to a Stealth-on-demand, and it was regarded as a godlike technique for Assassins.
"An Absolute Technique?" Zhao Yueru cast a sidelong glance at the masked Assassin.
"Big Sis Yueru, you really must be careful. Cicada's Cry is extraordinary. The blurry figure we see now is only an afterimage; it's not Gray Robe's real body," Blazing Soul urgently reminded Zhao Yueru when she saw the other party remaining stationary.
Cicada's Cry was Gray Robe's trademark move. With the help of the technique, Gray Robe could hold his ground against multiple titled experts of the same tier simultaneously.
Although Blazing Soul could sense that Gentle Snow and Zhao Yueru were equally extraordinary, they would likely suffer a massive loss if they underestimated Gray Robe.
"Calm down." After glancing at Gray Robe, Zhao Yueru lazily stretched and said, "It's about time. You all, come with me for your assessment."
"Assessment? What about the situation here?" Blazing Soul asked, greatly confused by Zhao Yueru's instructions.
However, before Blazing Soul could ask any more questions, Gentle Snow suddenly moved and appeared about 30 yards away from her. Then, in one swift motion, Gentle Snow swung her greatsword at the space before her.
Boom!
A thunderous explosion echoed throughout the street, and smoke and dust covered the area where Gentle Snow stood. Before anyone could react, a figure suddenly flew out of the smoke and dust, and this figure belonged to none other than Gray Robe.
Gray Robe flew over 20 yards away before he landed on his feet and stumbled several steps back. The two daggers he wielded trembled violently, producing a harsh humming sound.
"You… How is this possible?!" Gray Robe stared at Gentle Snow in disbelief.
One strike!
Just one strike!
Gentle Snow had not only seen through his Cicada's Cry, but she had even repulsed him with just one strike. This was simply unbelievable.
Before Gray Robe could fully process the situation, Gentle Snow stabbed her greatsword into the ground and held the hilt with both hands. Sweeping her gaze across Gray Robe and the other players from the Twin Saints Alliance, she indifferently said, "Anyone who dares trespass onto Zero Wing's property will face death!"
