Chapter 307: Shadow is Coming! Is this good news or bad news?

The team targeted by Qin Feng… was precisely one of the teams responsible for surrounding and killing the Great Xia Guild.

They specifically avoided the northwestern region where the "Terrifying Clown" had recently appeared, operating instead in the southeastern region of the Los Angeles Ruins.

"Shit. We killed a few Great Xia dogs at the beginning, but now we can't even find anyone."

"More than a dozen of their guilds are huddling together for warmth, and they're well-informed; they must have logged off after hearing the news."

"It's really boring. Usually, the higher-ups tell us not to conflict with these Great Xia dogs, and now that we finally have a chance to slaughter them, they've all run away. They're all spineless cowards!"

The twenty-four members of this team were cursing and swearing as they continued to search for other Great Xia players.

In this crowd, there was an Asian youth wearing flame leather armor, holding a flaming longbow. Surprisingly, he was a Great Xia international student…

His name was Zhang Jingchen, and his God Forsaken Game codename was 'JC. Flame'.

'Flame' means fire, because his class was the Hidden Class 'Flame Archer'.

In fact, he was even a classmate of 'Dawn', and he was very diligent in his studies; he could definitely be considered a high-tech technical talent.

Unfortunately…

This Zhang Jingchen felt that there was no future in returning to Great Xia, so he unceremoniously dumped his girlfriend in Great Xia who was waiting for him.

After dumping her, he found a local white girlfriend whose father was a police officer. This made Zhang Jingchen very satisfied, and he planned to immigrate to North America in the future.

At this moment.

Zhang Jingchen was with his girlfriend in this North American hunting team.

A blonde, blue-eyed priestess ran over and patted him on the shoulder: "Dear Zhang, we just killed some Great Xia players. Do you feel uncomfortable?"

Zhang Jingchen smiled and shook his head: "Why would I? Although I haven't officially immigrated yet, in my heart, I am already a part of North America."

The blonde girlfriend smiled: "Then I can rest easy."

Zhang Jingchen sighed with emotion: "Actually, I really admire the North American Government powerhouses. It's not something just anyone could do, to reach terms with an Epic-grade BOSS this time."

His girlfriend also nodded obediently: "That's right. God is protecting us. As long as we cooperate with the BOSS, the BOSS won't kill us."

Clearly.

These players did not know that the North American Government was completely deceiving them.

There was no cooperation with the BOSS at all.

If they had really cooperated with the BOSS…

Why would they still need to avoid the northwestern region where the Terrifying Clown was located?

And in fact.

Zhang Jingchen was still a bit nervous. After all, Shadow's power was currently too strong, making every country in the world unable to catch its breath.

But in his view, Shadow wouldn't pay attention to a small fry like him, right?

"In these Los Angeles Ruins, the only thing that could attract Shadow would be that Epic-grade BOSS…"

As for returning to Great Xia, Zhang Jingchen had never considered it.

He had heard that there were tens of millions of players in the Great Xia Magic City Ruins, several times more than the players in the Los Angeles Ruins, and the monster resources were simply not enough to compete for!

Even if Great Xia had Shadow…

But to Zhang Jingchen, no matter how strong Shadow was, he wouldn't give him a single cent!

It was more realistic to develop himself here in Los Angeles!

However.

Just as Zhang Jingchen was thinking this, a sudden change occurred!

In an instant, he saw a terrifying Superior Affix gauge appear above his head and the heads of his twenty-three surrounding teammates… It was the Nightmare Gauge!

It stacked to 40% in just a single moment!

No one in this team possessed Emerald-grade equipment, so no one had obtained Superior Resistance.

When they were assaulted by the Nightmare Gauge, everyone reacted immediately.

"Fuck!"

"Who is it?!"

"What's going on?"

"Didn't they say the BOSS wouldn't attack us?"

Before they could even react, just 1 second later.

The Nightmare Gauge above each of their heads stacked to 80%!

In the next instant…

Each of them was swept by an invisible blade of light.

Dark Night Ring Blade!

This strike, while slaughtering these twenty-four people, also stacked the final segment of the Nightmare Gauge, directly sending them into a nightmare state!

In that moment…

A series of system prompts appeared in the guild channel where these twenty-four people belonged.

—— [Player 'JC. Flame' died by unknown existence!] [Player 'DragRyden' died by unknown existence!] [Player…] ——

Twenty-four consecutive Death notifications flooded the guild channel.

It instantly shocked everyone still online in the guild.

"What happened?"

"Weren't they out hunting Great Xia people?"

"Died by unknown existence? This must have been killed by that Epic-grade BOSS!"

"Come to the guild resurrection point quickly, they've all gone crazy after resurrecting!"

For a time, the already chaotic guild became even more chaotic!

…

And this incident was just a small interlude for Qin Feng.

Because the Los Angeles Ruins were quite empty now, he flew at a high altitude, making it easy to distinguish which teams were out to surround and kill Great Xia players.

He killed them directly!

During this time…

Qin Feng naturally used the function of the 'Assassin's Hood', which allowed him to hide his identity while killing. Moreover, every time he killed a target during the effect duration, the cooldown would refresh, allowing for infinite usage!

It was equivalent to permanently hiding his identity!

In the mid-to-late stages of the God Forsaken Game, there were many methods similar to hiding one's identity.

Also, kills by the 'Terrifying Clown' would be recorded as 'unknown existence' because the Terrifying Clown was not the BOSS's true form.

Especially in the later stages…

Situations of dying to an 'unknown existence' would be quite common!

The key was that now, after Qin Feng activated 'Endless Nightmare', killing enemies while simultaneously putting them into a nightmare state created a Death scenario exactly the same as the 'Terrifying Clown'.

Therefore…

Qin Feng directly disguised himself as the Terrifying Clown, clearing out the North American 'hunter' teams all the way!

And on Osirio, watching Qin Feng killing people all along the way, the Terrifying Clown had fallen into confusion, almost doubting its own clown existence!

Compared to this mysterious Blue Star player who knew the Ancient God Language, what kind of BOSS was it anyway?

It had to stack the instant death gauge to kill someone, letting the target die from the instant death gauge, in order to make the target enter a nightmare state… If there were many people, it would be very troublesome to deal with.

But this Blue Star assassin player…

He just activated his Finishing Move, went down, and solved everyone in just over a second, and could even make everyone enter a nightmare state!

Just like that, Qin Feng, disguised as an Epic-grade BOSS, soon killed wildly!

During this time, while passing by the Gold-grade Hideout of the 'Los Angeles Great Xia Chamber of Commerce', he saw a long-haired woman from afar with the codename 'Dawn' above her head, so he sent a friend request from a distance…

Regarding some situations in the Los Angeles Ruins, this girl must know more than Wan Ye Wei Yu, and intelligence information could also be delivered more timely.

The most important thing was.

Qin Feng could ask her who the 'mole' secretly passing information for the Heavenly Serpent Guild was.

…

With Qin Feng's actions, the entire Los Angeles guild circle exploded.

They were requested and ordered by the higher-ups to each send a team to designated areas to surround and kill Great Xia Guild players.

They were told that after communicating with the BOSS, they were threatened by the BOSS. This way, the BOSS wouldn't kill them.

But now…

Not only were they killed by the BOSS, but they were killed incredibly quickly! Those players who went out to surround and kill Great Xia players all died once and also fell into a nightmare state!

This situation left everyone stunned.

"When did the Clown go to that place?"

"Wait, it seems like there really hasn't been any movement from the Clown in the northwest direction for a long time…"

"God, why do we have to suffer such misery?"

At this moment.

In the 'Noble Restaurant', the Platinum-level Hideout of the Heavenly Serpent Guild, Chaos had already erupted.

Bad news kept coming one after another.

"Soon everyone will know that we didn't cooperate with the BOSS at all!"

"Heh, that's simple; we can just say the BOSS went back on its word."

"The bad news is that the Clown is killing wildly outside, and now we can't leave the Hideout at all!"

"But at the same time, there is some good news."

"The Great Xia Government has publicly stated that they have notified Shadow to come to our Los Angeles Ruins to help us get rid of that BOSS…"

At the round table in the Noble Restaurant.

Ji Zekai, the Suit-wearing Old Man, and others all had gloomy expressions.

It wasn't until they heard that 'Shadow' was coming that they looked like they could barely breathe a sigh of relief.

Only the blonde beauty 'Stina Mozer' said quietly: "I said it earlier, it would have been better to apologize to Great Xia and give some compensation. Now that it has turned into this, the price we need to pay is even greater."

Once these words were spoken, everyone was clearly a bit stiff.

Their plan to surround and kill Great Xia players and attract Shadow could be said to have failed at this point.

In this situation, if Shadow came, how could he possibly let them off easily?

Even if he were to help them kill the BOSS, he would definitely demand an exorbitant price from them!

But unfortunately…

The Los Angeles Ruins were now chaotic to the extreme. Either everyone gave up on the Los Angeles Ruins, or they could only rely on 'Shadow' to save the situation!

Just at this moment…

The nervous voices of several gatekeeper players rang out in the guild channel: "Guild Master, Guild Master, Shadow is here, he is right at the door of our Hideout!"

Their voices were both shocked and vigilant, with clear apprehension in their words!

Shadow!

The world's number one Shadow, the Legendary Shadow, the Shadow who had almost never appeared before anyone…

For these players in North America, he had long been an imaginary enemy like a nightmare!

When Shadow truly appeared before them…

How could they not be nervous?

For a moment, the Suit-wearing Old Man, Ji Zekai, and others stood up one after another, tidied their appearances, and prepared to go meet Shadow.

In their view, Qin Feng was coming over to 'demand an exorbitant price' and negotiate terms.

But what they didn't know was that Qin Feng had arrived long ago; not only had he reached an agreement with the Epic-grade BOSS, but he had even killed a circle around the area!

Coming to find them now…

Was purely to make them step into an even deeper pit!

If it were before the God Forsaken Game descended, if he were playing dirty with these people, Qin Feng might not have been a match for this type of person.

But now…

Qin Feng stood at the pinnacle of strength. Then, the rules of the game would be decided by him!
