← Back to novel Online Game: The God-Tier Assassin, I Am the Shadow

#249 · 249 of 2210

“Teacher actually believes in metaphysics?”

In just a short while, the Yunshan Inn, which originally had over six thousand members, was left with only over three thousand.

A large portion of the remaining half wasn't even online.

This left that beautiful guild leader with a bitter expression.

She really didn't know that the female Assassin would be one of Shadow's people!

However, at the end of the day, this was also because she was used to acting arrogantly; otherwise, she wouldn't have encountered such a thing…

However, this guild leader was also one to take responsibility for her actions.

She quickly made a decision to send people to the place where they were wiped out to apologize to Gui Ling!

…

Over on Qin Feng and Gui Ling's side, they were unaware that in just this short while, one of the top twenty guilds in the Magic City was on the verge of disbanding.

And this was simply because the other party discovered they had provoked Qin Feng!

Even though they didn't succeed, the deterrent power coming from 'Shadow' was enough to make that guild fall apart.

No one wanted to offend 'Shadow'.

The disbanding of Feike Heavy Industries and the bloody, tear-stained lessons of so many people were still vivid in their minds.

And what they didn't expect even more was that another piece of news spread from that guild…

Shadow has a girlfriend? And she's actually an Assassin too?!

Of course, this didn't spread that quickly. At least Qin Feng and Gui Ling were naturally unaware of it for now.

At this moment, Qin Feng had already returned to the teleportation array in the Sichuan Ruins, chose to teleport back to the Magic City Ruins, and then headed back to the Evil Spirit Academy.

The Eight-Armed Thief Saint and the Eye of Knowledge. These two NPCs subdued by Qin Feng had both returned to the Evil Spirit Academy.

And they were arranged by Qin Feng in the surface area, allowing them to 'interact' with the players of the Sky Dome Guild.

Ten Li Green Mountain Far Away: "Great God, sorry to bother you… My grandpa wants to ask, is that Big Eyes good at chess? He says it's twenty years of Lifespan per game, is it worth playing?"

Facing this question, Qin Feng answered truthfully: "I don't know either. Anyway, I played ten games of chess against it and won ten times."

Ten Li Green Mountain Far Away: "Oh, oh, okay, thank you Great God~"

As soon as Qin Feng heard this, he knew that Old Zhang Tou's chess itch had flared up… He couldn't help but think: "This doesn't count as scamming him, right? I played ten games against Big Eyes and I really did win all ten!"

Even if Old Zhang Tou believed Qin Feng's words and ran over to play a couple of games, he would definitely be able to tell Big Eyes' skill level; it was a super AI!

Immediately after, Qin Feng told Ten Li Green Mountain Far Away about the services and prices for double experience and the Thieving Saint's Hand; if anyone in the Sky Dome Guild needed it, they could ask Qin Feng to open permissions.

As for the Thieving Saint Talisman, Wan Ye Wei Yu had already said that the Shanghai Government wanted to take all the remaining fifty, likely for some special purpose, such as forcibly obtaining important items from prisoners and the like…

"With NPCs, I can earn a continuous stream of Lifespan."

"Just from one hundred Thieving Saint Talismans, that's an income of one thousand years of Lifespan a week!"

"Plus the earnings from teaching the Thieving Saint's Hand and activating double experience… This is a continuous stream of Lifespan!"

"It's a pity that the maximum guild tax rate can only be set to 50%…"

When Qin Feng returned to the Evil Spirit Academy, he set permissions for several players to learn the 'Thieving Saint's Hand' based on the needs of the Sky Dome Guild.

Learning it once cost one hundred years of Lifespan, and Qin Feng could earn fifty years!

Originally, he hadn't planned to make this skill public, but after thinking about it, with such little attribute growth, it was just an Inferior skill, so making it public wouldn't have much of an impact.

Although there weren't many players currently with enough Lifespan to learn this skill, there would be more and more in the future.

In addition, the opportunity to activate double experience was limited to one hundred times per week. Qin Feng definitely had to reserve 7 times for himself and 7 for Gui Ling, and the remaining 86 permissions could be released.

It wasn't just for the Sky Dome Guild. It could also be released to the Shanghai Government.

Even if members of the 'Shudao Mountain' guild were willing to spend the seventy to eighty years of Lifespan required for the round trip to come to the Magic City, Qin Feng could grant them permissions too.

In short, these two NPCs would continuously create wealth for Qin Feng!

"Also, the auction is being held tonight to auction off those three Platinum-level Hideouts…"

"They should be able to sell for at least four or five thousand years, right?"

"Added together, the three of them would be over ten thousand years!"

"Once I get this Lifespan, I'll buy up the level of the 'Thieving Saint's Hand'…"

Qin Feng thought to himself. Pure, natural Platinum-level Hideouts were rare and precious, but their price also had a cap.

Because there were actually many Gold-grade Hideouts in the city ruins, and their prices were stable. If the price of a Platinum-level Hideout was too high, it would be better to just buy a few more Gold-grade Hideouts.

All in all, selling those three Platinum-level Hideouts now would yield the highest profit.

If he waited for a while longer, although players' efficiency in farming Lifespan would be higher, at the same time, players would also discover that they could build their own Hideouts using the 'Book of Divine Empowerment · Defense Barrier'…

It was just that at this stage, players couldn't pass the challenge of the High-Level Divine Authority Tower yet.

teleportation arrays, defense barriers, light and shadow crystals… and a series of other high-level items could all be obtained from the High-Level Divine Authority Tower!

Qin Feng was able to challenge them, but the locations of the High-Level Divine Authority Towers were quite far away, and he wasn't in a rush to go. He would focus on leveling up first.

Immediately after, Qin Feng found 'Knowledge Eye Aristotle', who was playing chess with Old Zhang Tou and the others, and spent 50 years of Lifespan to activate a 3-hour double experience state.

Looking at how excited Old Zhang Tou and the others were, it was clear they hadn't realized what was waiting for them…

And the Big Eyes with golden pupils looked even more harmless, making people completely let their guard down!

"Let's go, time to level up."

Qin Feng mounted Osirio and flew south of the Magic City Ruins, preparing to find a high-level monster farming spot to grind for three hours!

On the way, he would pass by the stone ruins where Gui Ling was, so he could conveniently loot the 'Assassin''s corpse.

Just at this moment, Qin Feng received a private message from Gui Ling.

She first explained the situation briefly, then said: "…Teacher, someone has come to apologize, saying that to show their sincerity, they can spend three hundred years of Lifespan to buy this BOSS's corpse to loot it."

"If they loot any extra loot, they'll give five times the Lifespan, and they can also give me all the Assassin equipment and skill books. Do you think I should agree?"

It was clear that Gui Ling hadn't learned the 'Hand of Greed'.

For Gui Ling, this condition was indeed very cost-effective.

A standard Bronze-grade 'Hand of Greed' used to loot an Emerald-grade BOSS's corpse had a probability of yielding extra loot that was almost negligible!

And for them to spend three hundred years on this was clearly 'giving money' to Gui Ling; this sincerity was indeed quite good.

If they really did loot something, then giving five times the Lifespan and also giving all the Assassin equipment and skill books to Gui Ling… this would undoubtedly be a high probability of making a loss!

You have to know that that's one thousand five hundred years of Lifespan!

If the two or three Emerald-grade items they looted were all for Assassins, then the other party would be losing so much they wouldn't even have their underwear left!

You have to know. Currently on the market, apart from those dropped by Qin Feng, there were also a small number of Emerald-grade equipment/skill books. They were all obtained from wild encounters or opening treasure chests.

The price was basically between three hundred to five hundred years, with skill books being a bit more expensive than equipment.

To offer a price of one thousand five hundred years of Lifespan for two or three Emerald-grade items showed that 'Yunshan Inn's' sincerity was indeed very high. Moreover, their Bronze-grade 'Hand of Greed' would most likely fail to loot anything, which was equivalent to just giving Gui Ling three hundred years for free…

Hearing Gui Ling's words, Qin Feng pondered for a moment, then said meaningfully: "If someone wants to give money, only a fool wouldn't accept it. But tell them you have one condition: wait for me to loot the corpse. I have lucky hands; as long as they pay, I'll provide the items."

Lucky hands? Gui Ling, who received this message, was a bit confused. "Teacher actually believes in metaphysics?"
