Chapter 165: Dark Shadow Twins (Two In One)
When everyone had returned to the Ice Snow Village, Frozen’s expression darkened instantly. With a furious grimace on his face, he imdiately ordered his clansn to scour the entire Arctic Abyss for the two scamrs.
Frozen felt that he could not swallow this bitter anger if he couldn’t turn the two wretched beings into frozen statues on the icy cliff.
One must know that he had betrayed his promise to the King of Beiqi after being persuaded by the liars. If His Majesty punished him by breaking his leg, that would simply be a heaven-sent miracle. From his understanding of the King of Beiqi, it was highly possible that His Majesty would sever his head.
However, his heart was filled with doubt after eting the King of Beiqi this ti.
“Since His Majesty is still alive and well, why isn’t he the King of Beiqi now. Why did he force our Ice Snow Clan into seclusion, what exactly is he plotting?”
Frozen could not make heads or tails of the situation. Hence, he personally searched every corner of the Arctic Abyss for that despicable little couple. He wanted to interrogate them thoroughly before slaughtering them, to find out the current situation in Beiqi.
anwhile, Murphy and Little Polo had already long departed the Arctic Abyss when Frozen was instructing his clansn to pack up and emigrate. Traveling at supersonic speed, both of them instantly headed to the Mansion of the Dead.
The artifact analysis indicated that the black light orb was a priceless inheritance. Thus, they could not contain their surging excitent and wanted to perform class advancent as soon as possible.
[Shadow Arcanum (Inheritance)]:
Inheritance Information: The inheritance contains the true significance of the Shadow Clan assassination technique. One can receive the Shadow’s inheritance after using it.
When they read the information, they suddenly felt that they had received a trendous reward without putting in any effort at all.
They originally went to look for Praj?ā Scarification. To their pleasant surprise, they ultimately returned with a hidden inheritance.
However, they had discovered another troubleso hurdle after returning to the Mansion of the Dead.
Who should be the one that used the inheritance?
Murphy wanted to let Little Polo use it, and vice versa. Both of them quarreled for a very long ti, but no one still wanted to use the hidden inheritance.
In the end, both of them simply could not reach a mutual agreent.
“Little Polo, use it. You told that I would be the one that makes the important decisions,” Murphy said after mulling it over.
“But, I’m as skilled at assassination as you. We can both beco much stronger if you use it,” Little Polo retorted.
“Listen to !”
“No, I won’t!”
……
After trying to persuade and convince each other for half a day, both of them fell into unyielding silence again.
Eventually, both of them decided to use the most primitive and fundantal approach to solve the dilemma.
It was none other than to play a classic ga of rock, paper, and scissors.
However, both of them could read each other’s mind perfectly, and could sense every fiber of thoughts, causing the ga to reach an unresolvable deadlock.
After another bout of struggle and bickering, both of them beca mum, yet again.
At last, they finally agreed to decide who would be the true owner of the inheritance by tossing a pebble.
Murphy picked up a pebble from the ground and sliced it cleanly, shaping it like a coin. His na was carved on one side, while Little Polo’s na was carved on the other. Whoever’s na that faced upward after the pebble was tossed, would be the one that would use the hidden inheritance.
Luckily, the pebble did not stand on its side. After landing on the ground, the side with Little Polo’s na could be clearly seen facing upward.
Thus, Little Polo begrudgingly took the black orb inheritance to use it.
When the limitless power of the inheritance coursed through her veins, the artifact was activated. It constantly digitized the analysis of the power within the inheritance.
But after about ten minutes of inheriting the power, Murphy, who could communicate with the souls, discovered that the date nu on his body was distorted, too. At the sa ti, the state of his body was also undergoing a transformation!
Suddenly, the noise of a ga notification reverberated through the entire server.
[Server Announcent: Players Murphy and Little Polo encountered a peculiarity when undertaking the hidden class advancent. They have now attained a hidden character class: Dark Shadow Twins]
The nu for a hidden character class had ford on Murphy and Little Polo’s screens.

……
Lu Wu and Bei Li were completely stunned when they saw the birth of a new character class.
For Bei Li, the Gold Level ability, King of Assassination, was the strongest inheritance from the Shadow Clan in the past. Other than the siblings that created the power, no one had ever been able to master the complex arcanum, as the requirent for gifted talent was too stringent.
In the ga, a skill that was deed to be Gold Level by the artifact had only appeared once before, which was the Gu Yu that was inherited by the Demonic God. However, Murphy and Little Polo were rely ordinary people. Yet, they could obtain the most powerful inheritance of the Shadow Clan by simply sharing their souls.
Undeniably, the incident was a pleasant surprise for Lu Wu. After all, it would be more beneficial to him if the players beca stronger. He especially favored the players with gifted talents.
The arcanum of the Shadow Clan was extrely hard to decipher. Even though they seed to have borrowed the strength of the artifact to perform class advancent, they still could not comprehend how to properly use their abilities. In order to help the couple realize the true significance of the arcanum earlier, Bei Li instantly edited an educational video of Shadow Clan’s inheritance and sent it to them.
When Murphy and Little Polo saw that the officials had sent them a video, they were montarily in a daze. They had never expected to receive the officials’ attention because of their inherited class.
anwhile, the official forum was filled with avid inquiries.
Crayon_Shinchan: “I’ll give you a minute to show us your attributes nu. How dare both of them advanced into hidden classes together, why didn’t they bring as well? (exasperated emoji)”
Xueli_The_Strongest: “I want to see it as well! I can tell that it’s an assassin imdiately, quickly show it to . (anxious emoji)”
Peppa_Boar: “The hidden class of assassins has finally appeared! It’s so exhilarating. I’m going to wait here for the pictures. I want to see it ( 1).”
Invincible_Loneliness: “Two people advancing into a hidden class together, this is unprecedented! Looking forward to it ( 2)!”
Waterlon_Taro: “I truly believe that the next hidden class advancent will be mine! Good luck to !”
……
While the players were fervently discussing the new character class, a video was posted to the forum. It imdiately attracted everyone’s attention, causing the number of visitors to skyrocket. Soon, the view amount would be close to 500,000.
[A detailed introductory video of the Dark Shadow Twins can be found here. I’m sharing it with all of you, so please enjoy it! (shy emoji)]
An educational video of the class abilities that was edited by Bei Li and sent to Murphy and Little Polo was attached to the post.
Without any hesitation, countless curious players clicked on the post to view it.
In the video, a man and a woman could be seen. The man was wearing a mask with a dark symbol, while the woman was wearing a mask with a purple symbol. As they stood back to back in the wilderness, uncountable rows of masked figures in black were nacingly surrounding them, like ants to sugar.
“Let the ga begin, hehehe!” the woman’s voice resounded loudly as she let out a wicked laugh. With a swift fling, she tossed the dagger into the air, as her body fused with the man’s shadow.
“The ti to slaughter is here!” the man declared viciously as he caught the falling dagger.
Instantly, the encircling assassins let out a deafening roar as they simultaneously pounced at him.
However, the man suddenly vanished and lunged forward in the blink of an eye. The dagger was twirling nacingly between his fingers as he brandished it around at supersonic speed. The pouncing assassins fell down, one by one, as their lives were taken by his dancing slashes.
However, the players found it curious that the man’s shadow kept transforming during the attack. It would alternate between different forms, appearing like a man or a woman, fused or split. Occasionally, even though his body and shadow were ters apart from one another, they would swap locations in a fraction of a second.
Especially when they were attacking the sa target, the targeted opponent’s forehead would reveal a black and purple symbol. When the symbols clashed with one another, the targeted opponent would instantly combust and explode. The stealthy and eerie technique had caused quite a fury among the players in the forum.
As the slaughtering continued, even the shadows of the opponents would be controlled by them and turned into amorphous killers. The shadow arms pierced through their owners’ hearts ruthlessly, killing with an attack that could not be defended.
Suddenly, the body and shadow in the video separated again.
“The ti for the dark night is here. Can you see the blood-red flowers blooming in the darkness, brother?”
“I can. In this complete darkness, we are the kings. Cower in fear as you are imprisoned in our lightless darkness, weaklings!”
When they finished speaking, the surrounding area was instantly plunged into total darkness. Through a different angle of the video, the players discovered that the masked n were completely shrouded by absolute darkness, without being able to hear or see anything. It was as if they had fallen into a dark abyss.
However, the brutal killing did not stop. As bloody petals fluttered around in the complete darkness, the masked n fell to the ground consecutively with each strike. When the darkness dissipated, lifeless corpses could be seen littering the entire zone.
Then, the woman’s figure appeared behind the man again.
“It was truly a satisfying bloody festival, brother!”
“Let’s go. We’ll go for our next battle, to slaughter the gods!” the dagger in the man’s hand gradually vanished, as he marched haughtily ahead.
When the woman heard it, she hurriedly trailed behind him and asked, “Brother, what does god blood taste like?”
“I’ve never tried it before, but it must be extrely tantalizing!”
……
The post swiftly garnered many players’ attention, and was instantly pushed to beco the top post in the entire forum.
All the players that had watched the video were astonished by the cold-blooded murder. The way both of the figures manipulated and fused their shadows, as well as switching their locations, was truly a puzzling sight.
The mage players were especially terrified when they saw the character class demonstration. They could imagine how horrifying and daunting it would be to be targeted by this kind of assassin. The assassin was so stealthy and agile, their spells would probably miss the target.
Forum replies:
Crayon_Shinchan: “Oh my god, the apocalypse for mage players like us has arrived. Thank goodness only two people have this class. Otherwise, I’m going to lose my marbles.”
Ye_Xueer_is_the_cutest: “Oh god, why isn’t it . My heart is now filled with admiration and jealousy. (crying emoji)”
Peppa_Boar: “You really cannot ss with them. If these two players beco so powerful after advancing into the hidden class, my big sword would be powerless. I’ll definitely be toyed by them.”
Xueli_The_Strongest: “As a Cursed Apostle, I just want to say that before I master Praj?ā Scarification, I must stay away from them.”
Invincible_Loneliness: “I’m so shocked, it was like watching a blockbuster film. Their abilities are a little too overpowered. Especially the power that switches off the light and traps the enemy, it really is too powerful.”
Ao_Family_Sword_Style: “The ability is indeed very impressive. I hope that I can duel with them one day. But, I’m still not sure how I can find them when I’m completely blinded. Anyway, I can’t wait to et them!”
Cultivating_Longevity: “Huge new, huge news. The inheritance is indeed too powerful. However, I feel that the technique can only be fully mastered by two people with perfect compatibility. This would be an insurmountable challenge for those who attain it. Keep it up, and also, congratulations!”
A_Large_Wolfdog: “The last Gold Level skill is too crazily strong. You can’t even find them if they block all the senses. I think that this inheritance can be ranked second in terms of destructiveness, just behind our Boss’ Demonic God inheritance.”
Crayon_Shinchan replied to A_Large_Wolfdog: “It’s not a fact just because you say it’s second. I think that it deserves first place. (laughing emoji) If you’re unhappy about it, bite ! (laughing emoji)”
Junior_Captain_Of_Demolition_Officers: “Did the author get it? If they have any interest, you can join my demolition team. (excited emoji)!”
Assassin_Creed: “It can’t be said for sure that it’s the strongest hidden class in the entire server, but it’s definitely the strongest assassin class. The power is too mad, shadow assassin sounds so horrifying.”
Waterlon_Taro: “It’s out of this world. If you master the class well, you would be overwhelmingly powerful. I can’t even attack you if I can’t see you. The assassination technique by manipulating the shadows is also ridiculously strong, instantly wiping out all the puny killers. Cool, cool!”
Taoist_Zombie_Hunter: “I suddenly have a bad premonition. I don’t know why, but I feel very anxious now. (shocked emoji)”
Crayon_Shinchan replied to Taoist_Zombie_Hunter: “Of course, you’re worried. You’re the server’s common enemy. (laughing emoji)”
Peppa_Boar replied to Taoist_Zombie_Hunter: “Just stay in the safe zone for your entire life. Even though the Evil Apocalypse has passed, I’m scared that you will create a Dead Spirit Apocalypse when you step out of it. (angry emoji)”
Waterlon_Taro replied to Taoist_Zombie_Hunter: “Please just retreat. Otherwise, normal players like are going to be really afraid, I beg you. (crying emoji)”
Taoist_Zombie_Hunter replied to everyone: “Everyone, shut up! Wait until I forge Hiderigami, Then, I will challenge bosses like the Rock Ghost King and the Hydra King solo!”
……
The players avidly jibber-jabbered about the topic in the forum. However, every one of them agreed that the new hidden class was undeniably formidable. Soon, everyone acknowledged that it was a terrifying class that was on par with the Demonic God’s inherited class.
On the other hand, Lu Wu also asked Bei Li if she could revamp the class and alter it to beco the second class advancent template for the assassins.
However, Bei Li shook her head, signaling that it was an impossible task.
According to Bei Li, the Shadow Clan moved as a team for assassinations and their execution required top-notch teamwork and high compatibility.
This sort of affinity needed to be perfected over eons. It could perhaps take dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of years to refine and burnish to such an extent. However, Murphy and Little Polo were an exception, as they were born as twin souls.
Their compatibility and affinity were flawless and impeccable, perhaps not even the siblings that created the Shadow techniques could rival them. As the hearts of twin souls were tightly intertwined and connected, their mutual understanding and connection far outranked the latter. Needless to say, it would be out of the question for the other normal players to have this type of compatibility.
Even the wise and knowledgeable Bei Li was filled with anticipation toward the little couple. She felt that if they master their class further, they might be able to surpass the Shadow Clan’s siblings, and beco the Shadow Assassins that could lead the entire Beiqi Army.
Lu Wu was on seventh heaven as well to discover another two generals with unlimited potential and power. This ti, he could add more nas to his list of players with massive potential. Ah, it’s so exciting!
