Chapter 117 The Invisible Demon Strikes (1/2)
As he circled around the area where Division 13 was located, Moonlight walked on the street expressionless.
He patrolled since he had made a promise, and he did not make empty promises.
The cold moonlight shone upon him, as if his body was inhaling the energy. A silver aura seemed to form on the surface of his body, making him stand out with an elegant yet magnificent presence.
Walking past a quiet alley, Moonlight turned his head abruptly, and his ability [Power of the Moon] was suddenly activated. It formed an armor around him—his ability allowed him to use the energy from moonlight to gain physical strength.
His eyes turned white and silver, and his moonlight-wrapped fist suddenly shot into the air. It hit a body.
”Who are you‽” Moonlight exclaimed angrily.
Under the silver beams, a human figure slowly appeared from thin air.
…
Right before dawn, Han Xiao, together with Tang Shu, who was foaming at the mouth, were back at the old abandoned house. He passed the antiques over to Li Xin.

It had not been a challenge for him since there are no other players competing in this mission.
Han Xiao looked at the interface, and it looked like the experience he had gained these few days had reached 700,000!
With the experience gained, Han Xiao waved his, turned around, and left without a trace.
Li Xin suddenly realized that she had yet to ask for Han Xiao's name. She felt a sense of sadness. Han Xiao was just like the prince in her dream, appearing when she was in trouble, offering his help when she needed it, but disappearing right after.
Tang Shu was crouching in the corner, and he was drawing monotonic circles, mutturing, ”I never want see you again.”
Han Xiao, who was walking along the streets, found a shop that had a glass window that he could use as a mirror. He was shocked when he saw the face simulated by his mask.
Wow, so handsome.
But it still can't beat my original looks.
Han Xiao pursed his lips as he saved the image of this appearance in his mask.
At this instance, Han Xiao saw a pair of indifferent eyes in the empty space behind him in the window's reflection.
…
Mo Ran's office of Division 13's Seagull City branch…
”Three assassins were killed last night—Moonlight, Volcano, and Hunter,” Di Su Su reported to Mo Ran.
”The wounds are all very similar. They seemed to have been cut by a sharp object at an extremely high speed that either pierced through the heart or slit open the throat. Based on evidence collected from the surroundings, the fight lasted less than ten seconds. These three assassins were not weaklings, especially Moonlight; he had the ability to absorb energy, which gave him a boost in physical strength. Since the killer easily got close to the three assassins, his ability must have been extremely lethal.
”Is there any footage?”
”No. The murderer must have chosen locations where there are no surveillance cameras.”
