Thinking of this, Han Xing continued to rush forward at a steady speed.
While on the way, he took note of the countdown on the flag.
【27 minutes: 35 seconds】
…
This countdown should be the time for calculating the score.
According to the rules, everyone must hold the flag for one hour before points are settled.
Han Xing has been holding this flag for more than half an hour.
So you just need to hold on for another twenty minutes to get 1 point.
"However, I can't let my guard down in the last twenty minutes or so. It's best to move more and change positions more often, and not stay in the same place for a long time."
"Otherwise, my position will be exposed to the sight of all the lords, which is equivalent to a sitting duck."
Thinking of this, Han Xing continued to activate the 'Tianji Liuguang Step', transforming into a stream of light rushing at an extremely fast speed, constantly changing direction.
Although this is tiring, it is also the safest method.
Just like that, time passed quickly.
For the next twenty minutes or so, everything was fine on Han Xing's side.
There are only three minutes left before the first points are calculated for the flag in his hand.
There are dozens of names on the current [Points Ranking], and they have all successfully obtained 1 point.
Obviously, these should be the earliest group of lords holding bronze flags.
They happened to be born near the flag at the beginning of the game, and with their strong strength, they suppressed all competitors and successfully won the first point.
As for the holders of the silver and gold flags, they have not yet settled their first points.
Under the guidance of the organizers, the positions of the one thousand silver flags were very far apart.
The remaining one hundred golden flags are located in the center of the competition continent.
Basically, there will be no preference for any lord, and he will be born near the silver or gold flag.
If you want a higher-level flag, compete based on your strength.
Just like that, two minutes passed again.
The number of lords listed in the [Ranking List] has reached three hundred.
There are even more names of lords on the [Killing Ranking], directly reaching more than 4,000 people.
This means that in less than an hour since the start of the war, at least four thousand lords have been killed.
Han Xing sighed, "The competition is really fierce. The number one on the kill list has more than 50 points."
"According to the calculation that 5 kill points are given for killing a lord, this means that this person has killed at least more than ten lords."
"This record can be said to be quite terrifying."
Han Xing glanced at the man's name.
[First place: Eye of Darkness, killing points 55]
"Um?"
When he saw the name, his brows immediately frowned.
"Eye of Darkness...why does it sound familiar?"
After a moment, Han Xing seemed to remember something.
Some time ago, he used the [Strange Item: Statue of Sorrow] to kill a strange high-level lord in a dark place.
The opponent's name is [Arm of Darkness].
At that time, I learned from the item information that in addition to the [Arm of Darkness], there were also [Foot of Darkness], [Skull of Darkness], and [Eye of Darkness]...
Only when all these parts are gathered together can it be equivalent to a complete terrifying existence.
"It can't be such a coincidence, right?"
Han Xing looked strange and asked, "Is this Eye of Darkness another part of the Arm of Darkness?"
Although he thinks the probability of such a thing happening is very small, but when one reaches Han Xing's level, he will have some mysterious sense of many things.
Obviously, there is a high probability that the other party is really like that.
This also gave rise to a new idea in Han Xing's mind.
That is... does this guy know that he killed the Arm of Darkness?
Also... has the Demon King, who fought with me last time, come here to watch the battle?
Or has the Demon Emperor also entered the competition? Thinking of this, Han Xing quickly looked through the kill list.
I saw this familiar name in the 3145th place.
[No. 3145: Demon King, Killing Points: 5]
…
At this moment, Han Xing couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.
"Interesting... I didn't expect that the Demon King would also participate in the competition, and even made it to the fourth round."
"So, he must have known of my existence."
"But he never approached me, nor did he stand out too much, as if he didn't want me to notice his presence."
This made Han Xing involuntarily infer.
"The first thing that can be confirmed is that the Demon Emperor and this Dark Eye should be the forces of the same organization."
"Then it is highly likely that the Dark Eye knows that I killed the Dark Arm."
"But they didn't attack me, nor did they take the initiative to contact me. They must have been intimidated by the strength I showed and knew that they had no chance to retaliate against me for the time being."
"So they decided to focus on the game at hand."
Just as Han Xing was about to continue his deduction, he suddenly stopped his train of thought.
Because he felt that there seemed to be something strange behind him.
Before Han Xing could react, a flash of cold light suddenly appeared! "assassin!"
This thought instantly popped up in Han Xing's mind.
However, when he reacted, the other party had already approached him from behind.
The distance between the two sides was less than a hundred meters, and the blade energy from the dagger had even passed through Han Xing's body!
As someone who was able to advance to the fourth round and also an assassin, the other party definitely has his own unique characteristics.
This ability to sneak silently into a kilometer around Han Xing without even being discovered is enough to become the nightmare of 99% of the lords! What is the concept of one kilometer? For lords like them, it is even shorter than one millimeter.
It can be said to be zero distance!
Feeling the stinging pain from behind and the cold gaze, Han Xing sighed in his heart: "What a strong assassin, what a fast speed!"
"If I'm not careful, I might actually lose my first blood here today!"
"However, it would be extremely difficult for an assassin to kill me!"
At the moment when the dagger was about to hit Han Xing, an invisible wave instantly emanated from him.
“Buzz——!”
Time seemed to have stopped.
Han Xing's figure suddenly turned into a stream of light! Passive skill——Body of Time Beast is triggered! Tianji Liuguang Step is triggered! Time stops for one second.
Movement speed increased by 100%!
The next moment, Han Xing's figure was hundreds of thousands of kilometers away from the assassin.
In fact, stopping time for one second is enough for Han Xing to run several light years away and leave the enemy far behind.
However, in order not to reveal in advance that he has the ability to stop time.
So Han Xing simply stopped time for a moment and then cancelled this ability.
To outsiders, Han Xing's performance was simply that at the moment he was about to be hit by the dagger, his movement speed suddenly increased several times and he avoided the attack.
But even so, it's pretty amazing!
There are many lords in the outside world who are paying attention to Han Xing.
Originally, they saw that Han Xing suddenly encountered such a powerful top assassin, and was approached so close by the other party.
Generally speaking, except for those top monsters, most of them are in great danger.
As a result, he actually dodged the attack with his terrifying explosive speed.
The outside world was suddenly in an uproar.
Many people discussed, "What a fast speed! Is this kind of burst really something a mid-level lord can have?"
"Yeah, it's too fast. After so many days of competition, this is the first time I see a killer showing such terrifying speed!"
"This should be his trump card. He never used it before. This time in the fourth round, the enemy he encountered was too strong. He was forced to show his true strength at the beginning!"
Everyone nodded, and felt that this person's analysis made sense.
At this time, another person said: "Do you feel that the movement that Han Xing just showed is somewhat familiar?"
"familiar?"
Hearing this, those lords all had thoughtful looks in their eyes.
…
…
On the battlefield.
Han Xing had just pulled away when the knife was slashed down instantly! “Swish!”
A space crack tens of thousands of kilometers long appeared in the space ahead, and the sword energy that burst out alone cut the earth and the sky at the same time.
This shows the explosive power of this knife.
When the assassin saw that his attack failed, a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.
He stared blankly at Han Xing in the distance and asked, "He actually dodged?"
"What is your method?"
Han Xing looked at him indifferently without any response.
When the assassin saw that he did not respond, his eyes became even colder.
"Humph! You are just a mid-level lord, yet you dare to ignore me."
"So what if you are incredibly fast? When it comes to explosive speed, I am not inferior to anyone!"
"That's perfect. I'll kill you right here and avenge my master Youying!"
After hearing the last sentence, the indifference in Han Xing's eyes disappeared, and he asked in surprise: "Oh? Your master is Youying?"
"Are you the assassin from Shadow Pavilion?"
After hearing this, the assassin responded coldly: "It's too late to know now."
"Next, I will keep an eye on you during the game and kill all ten of your resurrections first, and then eliminate you."
"Then outside, there will be other killers waiting for you, and they will kill you with one strike!"
Han Xing listened to his threat without any change in expression.
Instead, he asked in confusion, "Can a force like the Shadow Pavilion train a killer like you?"
"You are much stronger than that old fellow Youying, right?"
After all, Han Xing did put in a lot of effort when he killed Shadow.
But times are different now.
After so many days, Han Xing's strength has skyrocketed several times.
If he fights against a high-level lord like Shadow again, he won't even need to use his full strength to completely kill him.
However, the assassin in front of him was much more powerful than Shadow.
Even among those monsters, he is not a weakling.
After all, even Korean stars were almost succeeded by him, which is a testament to his strength! If there had been killers of this level in the Shadow Pavilion at the time, Han Xing would have definitely turned around and left, and would not have gone to destroy this force at all.
Hearing his question, the assassin still snorted coldly: "Wait until I cut off your head, and I will tell you."
The next moment, the assassin disappeared instantly.
Han Xing once again felt waves of coldness coming from all directions!
It was as if there were at least four or five top killers attacking him from all directions! And it was extremely fast, reaching his side in the blink of an eye.
This guy isn't exaggerating.
In terms of explosive speed, he is not inferior to Han Xing who possesses the Tianji Liuguang Step.
However, Han Xing's expression remained calm despite feeling the tingling sensation in his body.
If an ordinary archer were approached by such a top assassin, his fate would be sealed.
But Korean stars have too many ways to deal with this situation.
He casually pulled the bowstring and was about to shoot the first arrow.
At this moment, a faint figure came to my ears.
"Want to attack me? Dream on!"
“Swish!”
A flash of knife light came down from above the head!
This strike of the sword exerted all the strength of the assassin.
In his impression, it is impossible for anyone to bear it! However... at this moment.
The archer once again turned into a stream of light and suddenly disappeared from the spot.
“Crash…”
The sword energy poured down like a waterfall, cutting a crack of hundreds of thousands of kilometers in the ground in front.
Seeing this scene, the assassin's eyes suddenly showed confusion.
If his escape the first time was a coincidence, it was probably because he used some kind of explosive means.
So this second time, it was a real speed crush!
In other words, the speed that he was so proud of was actually suppressed by a mid-level lord.
“This is impossible!”
The assassin's eyes widened and he was about to disappear again in an instant, rushing towards Han Xing! But it is obvious that Korean stars will not give him a chance.
“Buzz——!”
A powerful breath of the moon's origin burst out.
The assassin suddenly felt that his movements became extremely slow, as if he was stuck in some quagmire.
"Control-type combat skills? And they are so advanced..."
“You bastard…”
Before he could finish his words, he was completely frozen.
In front of the [Enhanced Broken Moon], even an assassin known for his speed would have no chance of resistance.
In fact, in front of Han Xing's Time Beast Body + Tianji Liuguang Step, he is inherently invincible.
The reason why he directly used the trump card [Broken Moon] was to end the battle quickly and avoid exposing more information during the battle.
And once the opponent is immobilized, there is naturally no suspense in the subsequent battle.
“Swoosh! Swoosh!”
As a large number of arrows burst out and pierced through the assassin's body.
There was a loud "bang"! The full moon shattered and the assassin's body was blown to pieces.
A piece of information appeared in front of me.
[Successfully killed 1 lord, obtained killing points: 5]
[You have held the bronze flag for more than 1 hour, and you have earned points: 1]
…
【Congratulations! Your points have successfully entered the points ranking list, current ranking: 954]
【Congratulations! Your kill points have successfully entered the kill rankings, current ranking: 4062nd]
Please keep up the good work and continue to maintain your ranking. 】
…
Seeing the prompt message, a smile appeared on Han Xing's face again.
"Not bad, it made it into the double list."
"But we still must not let our guard down. We must continue to play it safe and keep moving with this bronze flag."
…
