Chapter 121 Did Too Much Work, So I Couldnst Think of a Title (2/2)
”I would like to learn the art of combat.”
Why is he saying this again?
Bennett's head hurt. After thinking for a while, he decided to teach a set of skills suitable for Han Xiao's sniper ability and began to explain.
”In my early years, I was once an assassin known for my stealth. Perhaps these skills can help you a little…”
After hearing Bennett's explanation for over an hour, Han Xiao was awarded with a new mission.
_____________________
You have triggered level D mission [Night Stalker (Class Change)].
Task Summary: You have learned some special skills from Bennett's explanation, but you still need practice them to perfect them.
Mission Requirements: Complete 5 assassination missions in the dark (No limit on level).
Reward: [Night Stalker] Class
_____________________
Night Stalker—this was a class that Han Xiao had long wanted to attain from Bennett to be able to learn stealth skills, critical strike bonuses from stealth hits, and other skills. Coupled with his Flaming Will and Ghost sniper rifle, he could perfect the art of stealth battles. Moreover, this would give him the chance to enable the [Fatal Shot] specialty.
This class was already extremely rare in version 1.0, and the attribute bonuses were not low. The experience needed to level up was less than the main profession, yet the sub-profession was able to be used for improving his combat skills.
After explaining, Bennett paused and said, ”I can tell that your energy is not strong, but your lethality is unfathomable. Here's my number; you can find me anytime you need me. Who knows, I may need your help in the future as well, what do you think?”
”Sure.”
Han Xiao blinked, promptly recalling one of Bennett's main story missions. Since he had no objection to this, they exchanged numbers.
On a side note, the phone that Han Xiao was currently using was no longer the black brick machine that Division 13 had given him.
The defense mission had finally ended. The mercenaries all heaved a sigh of relief. They proceeded to pack up, and as they were about to leave, Han Xiao walked around to collect the phone numbers of the assassins and mercenary leaders. Who knew, maybe they would be of use some day?
Golden Fox took the initiative to give Han Xiao her number. She promptly left afterward, fearing the strength of Han Xiao. Furthermore, she could not stand his strange taste.
The manor became much calmer now with the crowd having dispersed. Han Xiao drove back to Seagull City airport and departed on Farian Company's plane.
Having levelled up through two highly rewarding missions, Han Xiao had accumulated tons of experience. The big action plan that was about to start before the public testing began would likely be following the trend of reward-based missions.
I have already become a Ghost-level assassin with priorities in receiving tasks, commissions, and intelligence. Now that I have paved the way, I can definitely become a Legend if it all goes according to plan. All I'll have to do is complete this final goal…
Screw Germinal!
I hope that you all can withstand the violent love I'll be showering upon you.
Han Xiao laughed devilishly and rather coldly at the same time.
…
In the Intelligence Headquarters of Division 13, the Intelligence Minister had received a file about the application for the transfer of Mr. Black into the extreme threats target file.
”Mr. Black, of unknown source and unknown origin, is currently a serial killer. Only completed two missions, smashed the Rose Militant mercenary gang of the Somar Desert, displayed extraordinary sniping ability when guarding the valley of Manor, caused the Invisible Demon to retreat, killed Bai Yu with just three shots.
”He possesses extreme alertness and excellent stealth ability (NB: He shook off the stalker of Division 13). He is also a mechanic, has high speed boots with sliding ability, and possesses shocking killing ability. He uses a special sniper rifle.
”Requires special attention.”
After reading the information sent by Seagull City, the Intelligence Minister felt a sense of looming imminent danger.
”Seems like another amazing player has appeared.”
He took out his stamp and stamped firmly onto the footer of the document.
”Entry file approved!”
…
Something big had happened in the underworld. The list of killers in the Dark Net had a shocking major change. An unknown killer by the name of Mr. Black was added, and among the thousand names, he skyrocketed to number 23 on the killer list.
”I've never heard of this name before, where did he come from?”
”The Dark Net's list has always been fair. It was impossible that this is in any way untoward. Quickly, go ask around about this Mr. Black guy.”
People of various strongholds were on the phone, calling each other about Mr. Black. The underworld intelligence network began to collaborate with one another to find information about him. Some mercenaries and killers who had once fought aside one another at River Valley Manor spoke up about it.
Han Xiao's extraordinary feat of killing Bai Yu in three shots sparked a commotion in the underworld.
Those who knew Bai Yu thought the news was fake when they first heard it, but the hard evidence of Bai Yu's horrible death captured by the mercenaries proved them wrong. It was those three shots that caused his death.
The killers who knew about it were shocked. Even though Bai Yu was strong at attacking and weak at defense, he was still a high-level individual on Planet Aquamarine. He was not afraid of bullets. How could he have been killed in a matter of seconds?
More and more people went to investigate the origins of Mr. Black, only to realize that this person had simply appeared out of thin air. No one knew his identity. He was like a ghost, appearing out of the blue, floating around in the underworld.
Mysterious and powerful, Mr. Black's codename became known by everyone in the underworld. It entered the list of people to take note of for many forces.
Many old-schoolers would say that the killer should be hidden in the darkness—becoming famous was equivalent to failure. However, to the Blood Pact Society, with fame came greetings, and it was also a form of deterrence. Any enemy who threatened the Dark Net organization needed to take precautionary measures—could they withstand the continuous attacks from the killer alliance?
The Blood Pact Society had been weakening as the elder killers died, those who wanted to leave had left, and those who wanted to retire did so. Ever since then, the killer alliance's days had been numbered. With Mr. Black's new fame, Blood Pact Society was out to make Mr. Black their poster boy.
