Chapter 655 - Only Used Two Strikes?!
Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
“Who… who are you?!” The other black-robed ascetics looked grim, astonished that Mr. Moody’s figure projection doppelganger had been instantly killed!
“Who… the heck is you?!” Different from Luther and others, these black-robed ascetics were astonished but didn’t panic like Luther and the others.
After all, different from ordinary people, their training and experience had taught them to forget life and death. These assassins knew that there were many things in the world that went beyond their understanding, which was why they regarded this unexpected accident as something not surprising. With this mindset, nothing could be a surprise.
The purpose of their existence was partly to solve these unexpected problems.
Each of them could execute missions alone. In their limited lives, they had killed horrifying monsters and lofty lords with prestigious statuses. It wasn’t beyond the ability of this group to kill a saint-level master.
Different from those soldiers, their abilities went beyond the skills that they showed.
Compared to others, they had far more advanced physical conditions.
A level 9 anti-mage scroll could turn a level 9 mage into an ordinary person and could turn a level 9 Sky Knight into a mortal with some moderate combat techniques.
Reduced to this state, supreme masters would be as fragile as mortals and would die with one stab of a sword into their vital parts.
Could one use such things to assassinate people? Of course. It was why these ascetics were absolute masters in this anti-mage realm even though their cultivation strengths were not extremely high.
Casting spells on physical bodies would change people’s physical conditions and cause great danger to these people, which was why the godly spells were usually cast on armors and weapons. That was the function for the most ordinary godly spells.
Only senior priests had the right to learn these godly spells which were extremely difficult to master.
For the fully-armed soldiers, full suit of armor strengthened by godly spells were enough for them to block any attacks.
However, these ascetics couldn’t move agilely if they wore heavy armor. With the permanent magic spells or even godly spells in their bodies, they could kill level 3 and level 4 magic beasts with bare hands.
These people’s strength, speed, and reflexes far surpassed those of ordinary people.
With curses and extreme poison on their weapons, they could kill any master whose strength was suppressed by the anti-mage array.
Their overall strength far surpassed Elina and the other assassins. With the element of surprise, they had easily wounded these assassins severely.
They didn’t think that Fang Qi could deal with them all by himself.
If their blades put one scratch on Fang Qi, Fang Qi would instantly lose all of his combat abilities.
“Don’t worry!” Since each of them had the ability to handle a situation alone, there wouldn’t be the situation where they lacked central command. Soon, one of them took over the responsibility of the team leader and said, “He’s alone.”
Meanwhile, in the prison inside Stan Kingdom.
“Who? Who dared to turn off the visual projection?”
“Beat him!”
“I’ve had enough!” The assassins suddenly erupted into a rage.
With pathetic screams, the guards were instantly knocked down by the large group of assassins.
Satisfied, the assassins resumed their seats on the square and continued to watch the Spiritual Spell Visual Projection.
“Who do you think this guy is, Mr. Altair or Mr. Ezio?” an old man asked.
“I think… he should be Mr. Ezio; I heard that Assassin Ezio wears a little white cape on his shoulder,” another old man whispered.
Meanwhile, before Fang Qi, the black-robed ascetics divided into two rows calmly as if they had done this in the past while facing enemies. They knew that the person before them was a powerful opponent, but many powerful opponents had fallen under their blades.
The whole palace was full of grim murderous spirit which almost suffocated the audience who were watching this battle.
With their strength frozen, this battle would be a fight of combat techniques, combat experience, and brute killing skills.
Fast! These black-robed ascetics moved much faster than ordinary people. The audience could only see blurry shadows sweeping toward Fang Qi.
Under Complete Synchronization with his gaming character, Fang Qi slightly shifted away. Before the audience could understand what was happening, Fang Qi grabbed the wrist of the first black-robed ascetic who was holding a sword while his short saber pierced a hole in the ascetic’s back as if this person’s body were only a piece of fragile paper.
Then, the second ascetic’s short sword reached him. Fang Qi moved his body slightly and slashed open the ascetic’s wrist with his short blade at the same time. Blood sprayed everywhere from the ascetic’s severed artery.
More attacks came one after another. The black sword shadows merged and combined into a deadly net. As people who knew all about killing, their attacks were deadly and almost impossible to dodge.
However, Fang Qi seemed to know their attacks before they used them. As if he had eyes on the back of his head, Fang Qi squatted at lightning speed as a sword slashed over his back with a deadly arc.
At the same time, Fang Qi used the forward momentum and stabbed his short blade into the foot of the black-robed ascetic who charged toward him.
His attacks were graceful and smooth with a special rhythm, making it feel like no one could interrupt.
The attacks happened at lightning speed, too fast for the audience to clearly see.
The leader’s face turned cold, knowing that it would be too late if he didn’t move now!
However, at this moment, Fang Qi leaped up high like a snow-white eagle, hacking down his short blade with vicious force!
Clank!
With crisp metal-colliding noises, the new leader blocked this heavy strike and punched his left fist toward Fang Qi with vicious force.
Fang Qi blocked the fist with his palm smoothly with momentum. Before his opponent could react, his hidden blade shot forward and pierced the ascetic’s palm. Then, he pushed his hand forward, and the hidden blade went through his opponent’s chest!
“How is this… possible!” The ascetic dropped to the ground with dazed eyes filled with disbelief.
The Judgment Godly Palace had spent an exorbitant amount of money on these assassins each year, making their physical strength, combat experience, and combat skills far surpassing those of ordinary people. However, they were just killed by this man with at most two attacks?!
The money that the Judgment Godly Palace spent on them all these years had been for nothing?!
Meanwhile, Mr. Fang also looked at this ascetic in shock. He thought to himself, With the perfect T-virus created by the system, I can kill one magic beast with one punch. I even synchronized with Ezio at the peak of his life and know all his skills, but I still can’t kill this guy with one strike?! I had to use two attacks to kill him?!
