“Such Talent cannot be buried!”

The system prompt announcing Qin Feng's entry into the tomb made all these Japan players panic.

Talking big is one thing.

But when actually facing the world's number one, 'Shadow', even Tejima Ichiro felt his whole body trembling!

The most critical thing is…

Tejima Ichiro gripped his sword hilt, his eagle-like eyes staring fixedly at the empty bone platform opposite him: "This Shadow is too strange. I heard that some people killed by him disappeared inexplicably. Although they didn't die, they never appeared again."

His group of subordinates also looked at each other in dismay.

"Tejima-kun, how about we retreat? Let's not stoop to his level!"

"That's right, just a sneaky invisible rat, not worthy of being our opponent."

"Sneaky Daxia person, disgusting! Let's just gift him this tomb!"

They wanted to exit.

But soon, after searching for a long time, they discovered…

There was simply no exit option in this place!

In other words, either die to get out, or survive and continue exploring the entire tomb.

"Bastards!"

Tejima Ichiro clenched his fists tightly. Although he hadn't seen the figure of 'Shadow' yet, he was already drenched in sweat!

— — [ Both sides have assembled, the Portal is closed. ]

[ Competition rules: Unlimited wheel battle, until one side is completely dead. ]

[ The winning side may continue exploring the tomb! ]

[ If no winner is decided within five hours, it will be a draw, all personnel will be teleported out of the tomb, and the tomb will close… ]

[ Now, please have both team leaders confirm the first round of combatants! ]

— — After Qin Feng entered.

The system prompt directly announced the start of the battle.

Qin Feng, of course, went out himself; he was the only one on his side.

"In my previous life, I was the first to enter."

"After taking out two noobs, I faced Tejima Ichiro…"

"Although this guy isn't weak, it's a pity, I'm also very strong."

In his previous life, Qin Feng's Emerald-grade Talent was called 'Perfect Block'!

As long as he performed a blocking action within 0.1 seconds before taking damage, he could perfectly block the damage taken, and recover 20% of his maximum HP. This effect had no cooldown!

Of course, completing the blocking action takes time. During the action, Qin Feng would still take damage.

Therefore, he could not block infinitely.

He could only block precisely.

When first entering the game, it was very difficult for Qin Feng to perform a perfect block.

Because the timing requirement was too high.

Not only did he need to be familiar with the opponent's movements, but he also had to speed up his own blocking actions.

Even the slightest change in Agility attributes would cause the rhythm of Qin Feng's blocking to change.

But after two and a half weeks of practice, Qin Feng had long since mastered the blocking technique!

So when facing Tejima Ichiro, no matter what attacks Tejima Ichiro used, they were all blocked by Qin Feng.

At the same time, Qin Feng's attacks were also ineffective against Tejima Ichiro; this guy was too fast, and a Damage Immunity Shield was always present on him.

This led to…

Neither side could do anything to the other!

After a high-intensity standoff on the field for five hours, both sides were teleported out of the tomb.

"In the previous life, this guy never won against me."

"In this life, he can forget about even trying to oppose me."

"However… this guy is a key link in the Tokyo massacre. Keeping him seems more interesting than dragging him into the Land of Judgment?"

Qin Feng narrowed his eyes.

It was on the second day after Tejima Ichiro confronted Qin Feng in the tomb that Tejima Ichiro's team encountered a Diamond-level BOSS around the Tokyo Ruins.

This BOSS was surrounded by Ancient God Whispers and had maxed-out control abilities, directly causing all sixty members of Tejima Ichiro's team to fall into a state of losing their sanity!

You have to know, these people were originally the premier powerful team within the Tokyo Ruins area.

After they lost their sanity…

They directly started doing things within the Tokyo city area that ordinary people could hardly imagine or understand.

Their team's chief male priest went around catching children who couldn't enter the game yet, saying he wanted to 'heal' them…

Their team's chief assassin, appearing and disappearing like a shadow, set invisible traps around the translucent bodies of thousands of players; once those players logged off, they were immediately sliced into several pieces…

As for Tejima Ichiro himself, he was even more heaven-defying; he killed many people, extracted their spines, and carved them into his own swords…

In just one day.

Tokyo was in chaos! Tens of thousands of people were killed or injured!

In the end, the Japan Government used all their might to finally control all of them.

Two days later, Tejima Ichiro and the others woke up.

They pushed the blame onto an old man in the team, saying that the old man caused them all to be affected by 'Whispers'.

Consequently, that old man committed seppuku.

That's right.

Tejima Ichiro, who committed such a grave mistake, was not executed, simply because his strength was strong enough—strong enough for the Japan Government to attach great importance to him! And this led to more disasters occurring in Japan subsequently…

"This Tejima Ichiro is definitely a Talent."

"Such Talent cannot be buried."

"Rather than judging him, it's better to leave him to Japan."

"However…"

"To ensure the trajectory of this life is as similar as possible to the previous life, I must be slightly careful."

Qin Feng thought to himself.

First, after killing the opponent, I won't absorb their Lifespan, to avoid causing too much change in their behavior.

Second, I must wait until the last moment of the five hours before killing off their people, just like in the previous life, to try and ensure consistency in timing.

Although I can't guarantee 100% that the future trajectory will be the same as the previous life, doing my best is enough.

Anyway, the life in Japan in the previous life was already bad enough, and it had a direct relationship with this Tejima Ichiro; just don't kill him…

"Although it's a bit of a waste of development time… for major events like this, it's better to keep the original trajectory as much as possible, lest the future of the entire Japan changes and they end up living a good life instead."

So… Qin Feng stepped onto the bone platform, ready to fight!

…

Meanwhile.

On Tejima Ichiro's side, everyone received a system prompt.

They could not log off, nor could they delay time.

The combatants must be decided within 15 seconds.

Otherwise, everyone would be trapped in this place forever.

Therefore, although they were afraid that after being killed by 'Shadow', they would disappear inexplicably, they still had to fight!

"Yoshida-kun, you should go first."

Tejima Ichiro looked at a bald priest in the team, his expression grave: "To defeat Shadow, everyone must work together to test out Shadow's abilities! This heavy responsibility is entrusted to you, Yoshida-kun!"

The bald priest's eyes widened upon hearing this: "Chotto matte. Why me? I'm just a priest!"

A young girl nearby bowed: "Yoshida-kun, you have a three-second invincibility skill, you can stall for time with Shadow!"

"No, I'm not going."

The bald priest Yoshida-kun shook his head vigorously.

"Hmm?"

Tejima Ichiro's eagle-like eyes stared fixedly at him.

"…"

The bald priest, under Tejima Ichiro's gaze, immediately lost his nerve.

Gritting his teeth, he looked at the empty bone platform: "Makasete (Leave it to me), if I'm gone, please take care of my wife!"

He turned around and bowed to everyone.

But only halfway through his bow, he was teleported onto the bone platform.

Before the bald priest could react to cast a skill, Qin Feng's Shadow Blade arrived in an instant.

Pfft!

– 149.5w (Weak Point Attack)!

"…"

Looking at the half-bowed bald priest and the terrifying damage number popping up above his head, Tejima Ichiro and the others were all dumbfounded!

What kind of damage is this?!
