Chapter 352: Shocking Change.
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Tian Du City.
The First Academy.
The students stared in shock at the advancing na.
It was true.
They knew that whenever one killed an Assassin, one would move a few places upward. However, many people were tied in their ranking, it was impossible to move a few places in a short period of ti!
To hell with it!
It had not been very long since Zhong Chu was in the top one hundred!
It was impossible for the next person who received an assassination mission to find him in such a short period of ti.
However, he had already killed them?!
Was this a joke?!
Everyone was dumbstruck.
It was true.
This speed of advancent was almost impossible!
However...
Just as they were perplexed...
Shush!
The ranking changed again.
72th place.
The students were speechless.
Yes.
Zhong Chu had killed another Assassin.
They calculated the ti. It had only been one minute and thirty seconds since the death of the last Assassin!
Only Heaven knew.
It took five minutes to accept a mission and leave the community!
Of course.
Most of the audience did not know about the existence of the World of Darkness and Shadows. They were cheering for Zhong Chu, while those who knew the truth were dumbstruck.
“What is happening?”
“Cheating?”
“God knows!”
These people were bewildered.
With their way of thinking, they would never be able to guess what was happening!
Cheating?
It was impossible to cheat!
There was no way to cheat!
It was the World of Darkness and Shadows!
It was different from reality which had rules!
No one knew what was happening.
All they knew was while they were feeling perplexed, Zhong Chu had moved up a few places into the top fifty places. This created an uproar!
It was not a question of his results but his speed...
He was too damn quick!
At this very mont...
The teachers looked grim.
“What do you think?”
“Given the situation, perhaps a few Assassins executed missions together...”
“How could that be possible?”
“Wasn’t this an individual mission?”
“Well... perhaps all the Assassins were in the sa area, waiting to accept the mission and they took turns doing it?”
One teacher made a wild guess.
Shush!
The rest of the teachers looked at the teacher.
“Did I say the wrong thing?”
The teacher looked uneasy.
“No.”
One teacher sighed. “It is just that you could describe it in a better manner...”
This was an assassination!
This was a very serious mission!
To hell with taking turns!
Did he ask the opinions of the Assassins?
Did he think that this was a group mission?!
“Forget it.”
“Let’s observe for now.”
“Sure.”
...
At this very mont...
Apart from the teachers, the students who were being assessed had seen the ranking as well, particularly those who were ranked in the top places!
Initially, it did not bother them!
However...
Zhong Chu...
This na was too familiar!
He was soone who was capable of sending everyone blasting out even in the preparatory stage!
And...
His progress was too shocking!
“There must be a new thod.”
“I don’t know.”
“Could it be that Zhong Chu majored in Teleportation Nexus? Hence when soone receives a mission, he teleports his enemy over?!”
“I feel that your brain must have been teleported away!”
Teleportation?
Enemy?
Assassins?
To think that soone would think of this?
“... Then what do you think is going on?”
“I don’t know.”
Everyone was puzzled.
They really had no idea how it happened.
However...
Due to Zhong Chu’s fast advancent, many big shots who had decided to idle around beca serious. They changed their tactics from laying ambushes to open attacks!
For example...
Gao Tianlang!
At this mont...
Gao Tianlang squatted at the entrance of the community.
Yes.
He squatted at the entrance, waiting for people who were there to assassinate him.
As a top-notch talent in the First Academy and as soone who had not been beaten by anyone except Lu Yan, he had never rec-cultivated and hence he was very powerful!
He was a true advanced six-star!
He had the most powerful combat abilities!
Buzz—
A faint shadow flashed in front of him.
A burly warrior appeared. He turned out to be the Assassin who was here to assassinate him.
“Co on!”
A dialog box appeared on top of Gao Tianlang’s head.
Bang!
The fight broke out.
Although the other party was not very powerful, Gao Tianlang did not go easy on him. Apart from being stronger than him, the other reason was because he wanted to buy more ti for himself!
Zhong Chu was advancing at an alarming speed...
Their rankings must not be affected by him!
Pfft!
His enemy died.
Gao Tianlang sat down quietly on the sa spot, waiting for other enemies to co after him.
This was his advancing thod.
It was arrogant!
It was overbearing!
So of the shadows that walked past him took a glance at him and were full of admiration. There were very few challengers like him... These people were the real talents!
However...
Gao Tianlang swept his gaze over the screen and he was startled.
Zhong Chu’s speed in killing his enemies...
It was still increasing!!!
...
“Zhong Chu...”
Zhao Yunshan furrowed his brows tightly.
He had never seen soone who increased at such a shocking speed.
Even if he cheated, he was still not as fast as him!
It was true.
He was indeed cheating.
He was not soone who was pedantic. The purpose of the assessnt was to give the nerds who cultivated in school every day a wake up call. These people still had the ntality that they were in school!
As for him...
He had been to countless legacy sites!
Therefore...
This assessnt was useless to him!
He knew more than anyone what harsh reality was like!
Since that was the case, he must reap the most benefits for himself within the restrictions of the rules. Therefore, he asked his father to hire an Assassin organization...
Well...
And they would go after him.
Therefore...
His plan was for the assassins to receive the mission, leave the community and go right to him. He would kill his enemy in one move and after, another person would co after him.
This was supposed to be the situation.
It was simple, violent and fast!
He thought that in this case, he would have no problem in securing the first place...
However, he had been thinking too much.
Zhong Chu seed like a devil, surpassing everyone!
The problem was...
How was this possible?
Zhao Yunshan was puzzled.
He was certain that in terms of accepting the missions, the speed at which the Assassins went after him, as well as killing them instantly, he was already the fastest student within the restrictions of the rules!
However...
He was still surpassed by Zhong Chu!
What was up with this guy!?
Zhao Yunshan was clueless.
All he could do now was to familiarize himself with the procedures to shorten the ti. However, what was shocking was that Zhong Chu’s points...
They were closing in on him!
...
“Hell... that speed of advancent is crazy!”
“I know!”
“I have a hunch that sothing is not quite right.”
People were sowhat terrified.
Why was it that Zhong Chu could kill his enemies at such a fast speed?!
He was not killing them!
He was simply cutting Chinese chives!?
No one had any idea what was going on. They were helpless as they watched in horror while Zhong Chu’s speed in killing the enemies kept increasing!
He surpassed everyone!
30th place!
20th place!
10th place!
Third place!
First place!
Afterward...
His speed kept increasing!!!
Most people thought that he would have stopped right then.
They were too naive!
Clinching the first place was just the start. From then onward, the enemies killed by Zhong Chu kept increasing and everyone was left far behind by him!
He had overtaken them by ten people!
By twenty people!
By thirty people!
Zhao Yunshan was dazed!
Gao Tianlang was dumbstruck!
Everyone was bewildered.
They were no fools. They had calculated the maximum value within the rules. Zhao Yunshan’s speed was already the limit. How did Zhong Chu do it?!
Could it be that...
He changed the rules of the community?
Nobody knew!
Only people in the sa community as Zhong Chu had a vague sense of what was going on.
There...
The lightning in the sky never stopped!
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
There was endless black lightning!
The Assassins seed to be mad! They kept coming after the target on the killing missions!
Rules?
Sorry.
There were no rules there!
Zhong Chu was not restricted by the rules. This was because the Shadow Combat Suit was with Lu Ming. Therefore the rules did not apply to him, despite him being in the community!!!
The Assassins decided to ignore the rules!
They were tempted by the large amount of Shadow Coins to take risks!
The reward was 1200 Shadow Coins. It was sufficient for them to use all ans and ways to stab Zhong Chu with all kinds of weapons, to see which would be fatal!
After all...
Everyone had one chance!
Yes.
The black lightning would only appear after they attacked Zhong Chu!
Therefore...
Why not try?!
Hence...
This beca the place for the Assassins to have fun.
Bang!
Bang!
The black lightning kept appearing.
The entire community was sowhat distorted by the black lightning.
...
At this mont...
The First Academy.
All the students stared at the figures that were madly increasing!
The square of The First Academy had beco the place where the students had fun. To those who did not know the truth, Zhong Chu had once again surpassed all the talents!
The school managent stared at the ranking, a dumbstruck expression on their faces.
Well...
First place: 1820 points, Zhong Chu.
Second place: 980 points, Zhao Yunshan.
Third place: 350 points, Gao Tianlang.
Hell... what kind of ranking was this?!
The data...
The teachers were sowhat frightened.
It was true.
“What are the possible results that we predicted earlier?” One teacher asked.
“At this point in ti, it should be 360 points.”
Another teacher answered.
Yes.
360 points!
This was the possible result they predicted that the top few students would have at this stage. It was already very unimaginable in The First Academy to kill thirty six Assassins!
However...
980??
1820??
They had the feeling that their intelligence was being humiliated.
“Have you tested the ultimate result?”
One teacher suddenly asked.
“Yes. At this point in ti, the ultimate result should be 1000 points,” another teacher answered.
1000 points...
The teachers rested their gaze on Zhao Yunshan’s figures.
Oh.
This was the ultimate result.
They looked out the window at the small phrase: “sponsored by Zhao Yunshan” on the school building and they seed to understand...
Well...
It was indeed the ultimate result!
They finally understood the significance of paying money for success.
Well...
There was only one problem left.
“What the hell is going on with Zhong Chu?!”
The teachers complained listlessly.
His data was twice as high as the ultimate result!
This was simply impossible!
It wasn’t even theoretically possible!
Unless...
The rules of the World of Darkness and Shadows had been rewritten!
It was a pity...
No one knew what had happened.
According to the rules of assessnt, as long as the student could do it, it was allowed.
Cheating?
They had to have the capabilities to do that!
If Zhong Chu was capable of rewriting the rules of the World of Darkness and Shadows, he was indeed impressive! Therefore, there was only one thing that the teachers could do.
Wait!
...
In a certain community.
Bang!
Bang!
The black lightning kept landing.
At this mont, the whole community was shrouded in lightning, and no one even noticed that the sky in this area was slightly distorted.
Once and again.
Finally.
The black lightning struck again.
Buzz—
The entire community suddenly froze.
The terrifying black lightning suspended in the air without warning.
Ti...
Seed to stop!
People looked at this scene in horror...
Buzz—
Terrifying tremors swept across the entire place, radiating the entire World of Darkness and Shadows!
Shush!
The world dimd.
...
Sowhere.
In a dark abyss.
At this mont, so big shots who had fallen into a deep sleep for many years awakened.
In that instant...
A force of disgust swept across them and they slowed in their movents, speech and even their cultivation.
“Can I know which big shot descended into my World of Darkness and Shadows?”
A deep voice echoed through the sky.
Yes.
A sound!
This was the first ti the shadows heard a voice there.
At this mont, they finally realized that the original big shots of the World of Darkness and Shadows could speak using voices! Or perhaps, an alternative force!
Bang!
Bang!
Many big shots appeared.
Terrifying auras swept the darkness.
They were seven-stars, eight-stars and even nine-stars. They swept their gazes over and over again, making all the shadows in the world tremble with fear!
“What is happening?”
“I don’t know!”
“Everything is blacked out. I can’t see anything.”
“ too.”
The students were scared stiff.
Right then...
They even lost touch with reality.
As they were enveloped by the terrifying auras and force, there was no way for them to return to reality. Everything seed to be slower than normal.
The World of Darkness and Shadows was crashing!
...
At this very mont...
The First Academy.
The school managent panicked.
They had lost contact!
Yes.
No matter what they discussed before, it was because the students were still in contact and they could contact them anyti. However, they had lost contact now...
Shush!
The rankings of all the students froze. They had a big shock.
“Hurry!”
“Find out what happened?”
“I don’t know!”
“We have lost contact!”
“Cut off all the connections by force. Make the students wake up now!”
One teacher roared.
“Wait a minute.”
Another teacher suddenly said, “I just received a ssage from a friend. This did not happen because of us. All the shadow users have lost contact as well. There seems to be sothing wrong with the World of Darkness and Shadows.”
The teachers were dumbstruck.
There was sothing wrong with the World of Darkness and Shadows?
It was more believable to say that there was sothing wrong with the Shadow Combat Suit! There were so many big shots in the World of Darkness and Shadows. How could there be a problem?!
...
At this very mont...
In the office.
The dean furrowed his eyebrows.
The World of Darkness and Shadows?
It was crashing?!
Damn!
This seed familiar...
“Are you sure Lu Ming didn’t go out?”
The dean looked toward the assistant.
“He really did not go out!”
The assistant was certain.
There were many surveillance caras all over the street. He had specially checked them. Besides, so of the staff mbers of the Sword Card Master Association were their people. They knew that Lu Ming had gone inside!
Lu Ming really did not go out!
He was in a retreat!
“Is that true?”
The dean was full of doubts.
It was not that he suspected Lu Ming, but the manner...
Damn it!
It was too similar to Lu Ming’s style!
Or perhaps... Perhaps it was a coincidence that the graduation season happened at a ti where sothing unprecedented occurred in the World of Darkness and Shadows?
...
At this very mont...
In the World of Darkness and Shadows.
The terrifying darkness and ti lapse did not last for long.
Monts later.
The World of Darkness and Shadows returned to normal with a slight tremor.
Shush!
The shadows were in a trance as the world returned to normal. They looked at the ti. Ten seconds had passed. The incredible pause had only lasted for ten seconds!
But the ten seconds felt like ten years!
The feeling where everything lagged and their movents slowed down until they lingered...
Damn it!
W-what just happened?!
The shadows were frightened.
Hence...
All the shadows worked together to question the employee.
After a long while, the warden of the shadow community, which was a local shadow employee replied to them— “I’m sorry, due to excessive energy consumption of a certain region of more than ten tis the threshold, it resulted in a regional collapse. There was an imbalance of energy in the array of the World of Darkness and Shadows. This was why there were so abnormalities, but it has already been dealt with.”
The students were speechless.
The shadows were silent.
Lu Ming was stunned.
Damn!
He was surprised that such dangerous actions caused by other users would occur in the World of Darkness and Shadows?!
Also...
This familiar situation was simply a delay in the network!
