Chapter 367: Assassin Hall Heavenly Craftsman
"Qin Chen, I didn't expect to see you when I was shopping in the capital of Dragon Country. Why didn't you go to the banquet?"
However, before Qin Chen could go up to chat with her, the beautiful woman came over with a smile. It seemed that he had seen that faint smile somewhere before.
"It's you, Irene. No wonder I've never seen a beauty like you in the imperial capital. This banquet is boring. I don't like this kind of banquet."
Qin Chen smiled. He didn't expect that this beautiful woman was Irene. He didn't even remember her for a moment.
"It just so happens that I don't like this kind of banquet either, so I came out to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Dragon Kingdom's capital. I happened to meet you, so why don't we go for a walk together?"
Irene said with a smile in her beautiful eyes.
"Okay, since you are in Dragon Country, I will take you to experience the various customs, culture, snacks and delicacies of our Dragon Country."
He was naturally happy to come out and relax and have the company of beautiful women.
"What delicious food is there in Dragon Country?"
Seeing Qin Chen agreed, Irene asked with some excitement.
Perhaps only when she is out of the public eye and free from the constraints of her family can Irene reveal her true personality and be herself, rather than the kind and polite Grand Duke in everyone's eyes.
"That depends on what kind of food you like."
Qin Chen and Irene walked side by side on the street, heading towards the food street.
"I like food that's a little spicy, but not too spicy, and preferably a little sour and sweet."
Irene pointed her right index finger at the cherry lips, tilted her head and thought for a while, then said happily.
Qin Chen: "Come on, I'll take you to eat sweet and sour spicy crayfish."
Irene: Wow, this sweet and sour spicy crayfish is really spicy. Didn’t I tell you not to make it too spicy?
Qin Chen: But you didn’t say how spicy is considered very spicy. I think this level is not spicy enough, it’s considered slightly spicy.
Irene: No, you're lying.
Qin Chen: Have some iced drinks, I guarantee you won’t feel the spiciness anymore.
Irene: Ahem, what kind of drink did you give me? It's so cold.
Qin Chen: This is iced Pepsi, specially made to counteract the spicy taste.
Irene: It’s true. I actually don’t feel it’s spicy anymore. It’s very comfortable, just a little bloated.
Qin Chen: That’s soda. You can use water magic to guide the gas in your body out and then you won’t be bloated.
Irene: Hiccup!!!
Irene: You, you lied to me again!!
Qin Chen: I didn’t tell you to let the gas out of your nose, but the sound of your burping is quite nice, just like the sound of a pig falling asleep.
Ailin: Don’t run, I’m going to beat you to death! ! Qin Chen: Whoever doesn’t run is a puppy.
Erin: You're a puppy.
Qin Chen: I ran away, so I’m not a puppy.
Irene: Whoever runs is a puppy.
Qin Chen: You are running now.
Irene: Qin Chen and Irene were just like two ordinary lovers, eating, drinking and having fun on the busy streets. After eating, they went shopping, then went to the movies, and after the movie they came out for a midnight snack.
At one o'clock in the morning, the bustling street gradually became deserted, and the interest of the two people gradually cooled down.
"Qin Chen, can you trade your other Heavenly Crown Fruits with the Victoria Family?"
At this time, Irene remembered that the purpose of her coming to Qin Chen was to promote cooperation between Feiniao City and the Victoria Family. She had been having so much fun before that she had forgotten everything. Now that she had calmed down, she remembered it.
"Of course, the Victoria family can exchange the Heavenly Crown Fruit for tamed animals or other resources."
Qin Chen readily agreed. Anyway, Feiniao City would offer the Heavenly Crown Fruit for trading. It didn't matter who he traded with. What's more, the Victoria Family was still the family headed by Irene.
“That’s great!”
Irene said happily when she saw Qin Chen agreed.
"Let's go. It's getting late. I'll take you back."
Qin Chen glanced at the happy Irene and smiled slightly. Irene was the Grand Duke, and she had come out alone to play with him for so long. I think Victoria and the others must be starting to worry about Irene.
If Irene didn't come back overnight, I'm afraid Victoria and her people would start to make a fuss.
"Well, thank you for playing with me for so long, and I had a lot of fun today."
Irene said sincerely, maybe she herself didn't know what was going on, when in front of Qin Chen she would involuntarily reveal her true character.
"No need to thank me. I just came out to relax. I'm lucky to have a beauty like you accompany me."
Qin Chen took the initiative to hold Irene's hand and said with a smile.
“This is also my luck.”
Irene did not reject Qin Chen's initiative. Perhaps it was because Westerners are direct in their feelings. As long as they like someone, they will not reject the person but will be very proactive. In this regard, Irene did not do well.
If their relationship before was that of the most familiar friends, then their relationship now has gone beyond friendship, but has not yet reached the level of lovers. Simply put: more than friends, but less than lovers.
The two held hands, feeling the warmth of each other's palms, and walked slowly on the deserted and quiet street.
“Buzz!!!!!”
Suddenly, Qin Chen's supernatural power of sound issued a strong warning. He saw that Irene was cursed, her face turned pale, and she fainted with her teeth gritted.
"not good!"
Qin Chen subconsciously pulled Irene into his arms, and then used his body to withstand the sudden attack for Irene.
“BOOM!!!!!”
The next moment, Qin Chen felt the curse power of countless murderous thoughts, resentment, hatred, fear and other negative emotions bombarding his mind. Even with his current mental strength at the peak of the seventh level, he was still suffering from a severe headache due to the bombardment of this curse power.
Endless curse power entangled his soul, causing him to temporarily lose control of his body. This curse power was like a poison in his bones, tightly clinging to his soul and constantly eroding it.
“Qin Chen!!!”
Seeing this, Irene hurriedly supported Qin Chen to prevent him from falling, and at the same time set up a mental barrier around him. Mental magic can block the power of the curse to a certain extent.
At the same time, Irene was alert to her surroundings, trying to find the person who attacked her, but no matter how she used her telepathy, she could not find any trace of anyone.
Even if she couldn't find him, Irene's intuition told her that the man must still be nearby, but he was hiding too well for her to find him.
"Such a huge curse power. This negative curse power is definitely not something that a high-level magician can release."
"However, you still need a lot to defeat my soul. My spiritual power at the peak of the seventh level is not for show."
"Cursed Oven, take it away!!"
Qin Chen was unconscious, but it was only on the surface. He could wake up at any time if he wanted to. However, now that the enemy was in the dark and he was in the light, he did not act rashly, but instead tried to resolve the power of the curse on his body.
A huge furnace engraved with countless curse patterns appeared on Qin Chen's soul, and then the entire furnace turned upside down and swallowed Qin Chen's soul into the furnace.
At this time, the negative emotional curses that were originally entangled in Qin Chen's soul were continuously stripped out by the curse furnace and melted into the furnace.
In just a few seconds, the power of the curse on Qin Chen's body was completely melted out by the curse furnace.
“Multitasking”
"Mind Guardian"
"Suppress it!"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Now with Qin Chen's high-level curse cultivation, even with the help of the curse furnace, he still needs to fall short of completely suppressing the power of the curse. But who can blame him for his strong mental strength?
Relying on his powerful mental strength and psychic talent and power, he completely suppressed the power of the curse within the curse furnace.
“Buzz!!!!”
At this time, Qin Chen's sixth sense of sound alerted him again. The mysterious killer launched an attack again. His target was Irene, not Qin Chen.
"You really think I'm a vegetarian. You didn't even run away after failing to hit me."
Qin Chen suddenly opened his eyes and looked to the right. When the opponent launched the attack, Qin Chen had already locked the opponent's position. Even though he couldn't see him, he could feel the opponent's presence.
"Teleport - End of the World"
This is the fifth level of instant movement. A semicircular curved space channel appears with the diameter between Qin Chen and the enemy he is locked on.
Level 1 to 4 teleportations are all straight-line teleportations and cannot change the process of teleportation, but level 5 teleportation can change the process of teleportation, achieving the effect of both avoiding attacks and counterattacking instantly.
In an instant, a force of space enveloped Qin Chen and Irene. Qin Chen and Irene moved away from their original position in an instant, avoiding the attack of the curse power. Then when they appeared again, they had appeared behind the person who attacked them.
However, Qin Chen couldn't see this person at all, but that didn't stop him from attacking.
He didn't care about anything and just kicked.
With his current physical strength comparable to that of a great commander-level demon, his powerful kick was no less powerful than a high-level second-level destructive magic.
“BOOM!!!!”
The air seemed to explode with his kick.
However, when he kicked down, he felt like he didn't hit anything, as if he had kicked nothing.
"That's impossible. I clearly felt that he was here."
Qin Chen said in surprise, his sixth sense of sound clearly told him that the enemy was right here, so why couldn't he attack?
“Buzz!!!!”
The familiar power of the curse attacked again, and the target of the attack was still Irene, and Qin Chen clearly sensed that the other party was here.
"The Jade Seal, guard it."
Qin Chen stood in front of Irene again and used the jade seal to suppress his soul.
Under the protection of the jade seal, the power of the curse was like tofu hitting stone, it shattered at the touch and could not cause any harm to Qin Chen.
"Space Blade"
In a flash, the endless force of space was compressed into a three-foot-long sword that appeared in Qin Chen's right hand.
This is not the basic magic "Mind Sword" or the sword of space evolved from high-level constellations, but it is condensed by him using pure space power.
In the past, when Qin Chen used the Sword of Space, he would change the magic form based on star tracks, star maps, and constellations and then release it. But now that he has been promoted to the super-level of the Space System, his control over the power of space seems to have reached an extraordinary state.
Especially when it comes to the condensation and use of the Sword of Space, it seems like an innate feeling, and he knows how to use it naturally. He does not need star tracks, star maps, constellations, or star palaces at all. It seems like he can use it in a moment.
Just like the sword of space in Qin Chen's hand, even though it was only condensed in a moment of thought, its power is stronger than any sword of space he has released before.
This kind of power has already reached the power of super-level magic. If he wants, he can even continue to increase the power of the Sword of Space.
"cut!"
As he raised his hand, the blade of space slashed across the position in front of him that Qin Chen was locking onto. He was sure that the enemy was there.
“Shhhh!!!”
The three-foot-long sword swept across, and the space in front was like a screen, which was directly cut through by the space sword in Qin Chen's hand, revealing the endless void and space turbulence behind the space barrier.
Under Qin Chen's control, the space was not torn much, just to the extent of a thread, and did not cause any damage to the surroundings.
“Crack!!!”
Suddenly, a crisp shattering sound was heard, and a figure appeared in the place where there was no one in front. He was wearing armor, but was cut by Qin Chen's sword. Blood flowed out, and there was an expression of disbelief in his eyes.
He never thought that he would be attacked, and that even his most powerful armor could not block a single attack from the opponent.
"The master craftsman of the Assassin's Palace is actually him!"
Irene said in surprise after seeing the token hanging on the waist of the person who assassinated her.
There are four craftsmen in the Killer Hall, namely Tian, Gao, Ting and Bei, which together form an idiom: 天高听负。
It means that although the emperor is high above, he can hear the words of the people below and tell whether they are good or evil, and sing praises to the emperor for his wisdom and understanding of the people's sentiments.
I don't know why the Killer Hall used this idiom to name the four craftsmen of the Killer Hall.
The person in front of him was none other than Tianjiang, the most powerful and strange of the four craftsmen. It was said that Tianjiang had successfully assassinated super-class wizards many times.
He also possessed the ability to become invisible. No matter how many mages were blocking him, he could still leave calmly. However, he did not expect that the person who assassinated him was actually Tianjiang, and he was killed by Qin Chen who was protecting him! "Tianjiang has a powerful curse power and the power to hide in the void. The curse power is comparable to a super-class curse soul attack. If you don't have the seventh level of mental power or the power of defensive souls, you can't stop him at all."
"The power of Concealing the Void can not only hide his body shape, but also perfectly avoid physical and elemental attacks. Only mental attacks and the power of breaking space can hurt him. No wonder he can become the signature of the Assassin Hall and can successfully assassinate a super-class mage with a high-level mage."
"If I hadn't been promoted to the super level in the space system and had the power to break through space, it would still be very troublesome to deal with him."
Qin Chen said with emotion, he thought he was strong enough when he was at a high level, but he didn't expect that this Tianjiang was so powerful.
