Chapter 89: Assassins League
"Auuuuu !!!!" June listened to the horizon.
Liu Yang, Alwine, Rosella, and the beasts looked at the horizon. They saw a group of about five people wearing black robes mounted on horses and heading towards the carriage.
The group got serious when they saw the horses coming.
rommmm… rum… trunm…
Trot sounds started to become more audible as the group approached the carriage. It didn't take long for people in black robes to arrive in front of the group.
eeeerrrrr !!!! hherr !!!!!
"You can stop" An indifferent and cold voice was heard. The group of five people stopped about ten meters away from the group.
"Hello. How can I help you?" Liu Yang asked casually. He didn't even seem to be worried about the group in front of him.
"You must be Hawk River, the passerby, right?" A hoarse and distorted voice was heard.
"Yes. I'm Hawk River. But who are you? " Liu Yang pretended not to know who the other side was.
"We are from the Assassins League, but I think that woman next to you must have told you about it, right?" The group did not care for Liu Yang's casual question. It seemed that they were in no hurry to finish the job.
"Yes. She told me about you. "
"As you already know about us. You must also know why we are here, right? "
"Yes. You came here to kill her. Or do you have any other goals in mind? "
"About the death of the previous group? I have no reason to avenge them, they were weak and were killed. Only that. But I have to maintain the dignity of the Assassins League and kill you for defeating our members. "The distorted voice became cold and penetrating.
The five got off the horses and took out their long swords, each blade was extremely thin as a sheet of paper. A green glow could be seen shining on the blade.
"Poison?" Liu Yang asked curiously. He felt that the green glow was some kind of poison.
"It seems that you have good eyes to notice our poison. But that is not enough to deal with us." The group leader praised it, but he thought it was a normal thing to happen.
As a group of assassins, they were versatile in using poison in their weapons to fight their enemies.
(I just hope that this poison is not very strong, otherwise, I will have to spend some skill points on my passive.) Liu Yang thought. He didn't want to spend too many points on his ability to resist the poison.
"I appreciate the compliment. Alwine, you can use your new gears" Liu Yang called her.
"Yes, young master" Alwine opened her eyes. She took off two gloves and two boots of refined steel and wore them before going to Liu Yang's side.
The gloves and boots looked like her sharp claws, but it was made entirely of steel. Each finger of the gloves and boot had an extremely sharp one-inch tip.
The two groups were looking at each other solemnly.
"I know that you have more members in your group. Call them, I want to see your power. Even if that other group died at your hands, I want to see your real power. This is our pride as members of the Assassins League" The man spoke proudly, his tone was cold and indifferent, but Liu Yang's group felt pride in his tone.
Even though they were assassins, they were proud to kill others. But when they find people who killed the other members of the league, some members try to kill them to show their pride in the Assassins League.
This is also to show that no one can offend the league and stay alive, but not all members take revenge, as they were assassins. Their job is to kill for money, not to settle personal revenge.
"June, you can show up" Liu Yang asked the wolf to fight. She is the only one among the group of beasts that can withstand a frontal fight against one of the assassins.
"Auuu" June was looking forward to fighting a life and death battle after so long. She always trained at night, but she always received help from Liu Yang.
"I see ... A creature of rank 5 ... That will be a little difficult to deal with ... Will you fight four members in the group against the five of us?"
"That's enough to fight you" Liu Yang was confident that he could fight the other group. Despite having one less member, he had confidence in dealing with two assassins at the same time.
After a few days of talking with Rosella, Liu Yang learned many new things about the inhabitants of the Xinia Continent. This information left Liu Yang confident, but he still created a plan B in case something went wrong.
Rosella told Liu Yang that people on the Xinia Continent differ slightly from travelers from the other world only at the beginning, that is, at level 0.
People from another world level up and get a point to add to the attributes. However, the people of the Xinia Continent are already born with several points in their attributes. This is to compensate for the points that people from the other world get at the beginning before going to the continent. This was a way for the world to level the two sides.
Thus, the people of the continent choose their style of combat based on the attributes and skill they receive at birth, as this was a good advantage over those who choose other paths.
One such example is Callie. She was born with many points in the intelligence attribute and also got a Summon Flaming Golem spell. She has a great advantage over others, as her ability is of the intelligence attribute.
But others may not be so lucky. For example, someone can be born with a lot of points in the strength attribute, but they were born with the Fireball spell. This kind of thing also happens frequently.
"I see ... Let's see how confident you are at the moment." The five swung their swords and prepared to attack.
"Are you ready?" Liu Yang took out two steel clubs, the tip was a small ball with six thin and extremely sharp points.
Unlike the steel club before, the two new clubs were lighter, but the tip was much more powerful than before. Liu Yang created these weapons to have more speed and impact power when using his skill.
The power of the Impact ability has been pushed to the limit with these two new weapons.
"Young master, I'm ready" Alwine made his fight stand.
Pang !!! Pang !!!!
Alwine closed her steel fists and hit each other. These four items were forged by Liu Yang using the equipment he stole from the assassins' corpses.
The heat being emanated from the flaming golem became much stronger after reaching level 4. Thus, Liu Yang used this opportunity to create perfect weapons for his group. Alwine used her brute force to refine the steel and shape the gloves and boots.
"Yes" Rosella was wearing a set of light steel armor while holding a rapier with an extremely thin two-meter blade and three centimeters wide. She looked like a duelist ready for battle.
"Auuu" June howled with enthusiasm. She was already ready to fight.
"Attack" The leader of the group pointed the sword towards Liu Yang and ordered.
"Roger !!" The four assassins charged towards Liu Yang's group at great speed.
