Chapter 1 Killing Spree

Nie Yan and the Shadow Assassin plunged into the village, slaughtering their way through. Aside from the necromancer Xin Sui and his Silver Wings, the others were basically just cannon fodder, posing no real threat.

The carnage was broadcast on the dark faction forums, making the dark faction players blush with shame. There probably wasn't anyone in the dark faction who could match Nie Yan. Even an ordinary player wearing top-tier equipment like the Abak Set could dominate the battlefield, let alone a master like Nie Yan!

When ordinary players attacked Nie Yan, they could only deal a pitiful few hundred damage. Some lower-level players couldn't even break his defense. The gap between them was so vast, how could they even fight?

In a short while, Nie Yan had slaughtered over a hundred players brought by Wu Dong Zhi Ye, leaving only twenty or thirty survivors.

This guy was simply a god of death! Wherever he went, rivers of blood flowed! Wu Dong Zhi Ye was terrified by Nie Yan and shouted urgently in the team chat, "Everyone retreat!"

The Silver Wings were relieved to receive Wu Dong Zhi Ye's message and retreated one after another.

Nie Yan looked ahead and saw the necromancer Xin Sui turning to leave.

Trying to run so soon? He had to leave a few behind!

Nie Yan activated Gale Step, his speed suddenly increasing, chasing after Xin Sui.

Sensing Nie Yan approaching, Xin Sui's heart tightened. He moved his right hand, holding a random teleportation scroll, preparing to use it to escape. But just as he took out the scroll, Nie Yan flicked out a Scroll of Imprisonment.

The necromancer Xin Sui tried to activate the random teleportation scroll, but found it unusable. He cursed under his breath, waved his staff, and teleported about five or six yards away.

But at this moment, Nie Yan's speed was at its peak. The moment the necromancer Xin Sui landed, Nie Yan rushed over, and the Bloodstained Dagger in his right hand stabbed fiercely towards the back of his head.

Xin Sui waved his staff, and a bone shield appeared out of thin air between him and Nie Yan.

With a bang, Nie Yan's attack struck the bone shield. The bone shield trembled, but did not shatter.

The number of top-tier players in the Undead Empire was extremely small, only about thirty so far. Every player who successfully changed classes had undergone arduous trials, so each of them had some real skill. Xin Sui's timing was impeccable, and his awareness was also excellent.

There probably weren't more than twenty people in the entire dark faction who could withstand a few moves from Nie Yan.

Xin Sui retreated while casting several curses on Nie Yan, but he found that these curse skills had little effect on Nie Yan. His magic resistance was too high!

With a bang, the bone shield shattered.

Xin Sui's heart clenched, and he teleported again, leaping out more than five yards.

Just as Xin Sui used Teleport, Nie Yan used Charge, instantly arriving behind Xin Sui.

Xin Sui waved his staff, and the surrounding area was suddenly shrouded in a cloud of black mist. Nie Yan's attack missed, and his vision was reduced to less than a yard. He couldn't see anything and lost his target.

Eye of Truth!

Nie Yan's gaze suddenly focused into a beam, piercing through the thick mist, immediately locking onto Xin Sui within the mist.

Xin Sui was currently casting trap skills, trying to use the effect of the mist to kill Nie Yan with traps. Suddenly, he felt two beams of tangible light penetrate the dark mist, shooting straight towards him, like hellfire from the underworld. His heart skipped a beat. He had been discovered by Crazy Thief Nie Yan!

Xin Sui quickly waved his staff, and more than a dozen skeletons crawled out of the ground, blocking the path towards Nie Yan, while he quickly retreated.

More than a dozen skeletons blocked the way. Nie Yan leaped over the heads of these skeletons, pouncing towards Xin Sui.

Howl of Terror!

Xin Sui suddenly opened his mouth, releasing a Howl of Terror skill, the sharp sound sweeping out.

Nie Yan quickly used a Mental Immunity skill, and a large "miss" floated above his head.

Necromancers were best at summoning skills. After casting forbidden spells, they could even summon an army of thousands of skeletons, and summon powerful Boss-level skeletons. But these skills were useless for PvP. All of Xin Sui's skills became useless trash in front of Nie Yan. His previously invincible tactics were also broken by Nie Yan one by one.

Nie Yan used Shadow Dance, appearing behind Xin Sui.

Xin Sui was about to use Teleport to escape when Nie Yan suddenly used Lock, freezing him in place.

The sharp dagger appeared only a finger's width in front of his throat, then slashed open his throat.

Instant kill!

Xin Sui fell to the ground. Nie Yan looked into the distance. The others had already taken advantage of this time to run away. Nie Yan looked at the items dropped by Xin Sui. It was a Legendary necklace, level 130 equipment, increasing summoning magic power by 50%. It was a good necklace.

Nie Yan thought to himself that if he sold this necklace to Angel Felling, he could probably get a good price.

He put away the items and looked towards the entrance of the village. Several Moy tribesmen were resisting to the death, blasted to the ground by the Golden Land Dragon's Dragon Breath. The paladin Leves had also finished his battle and walked over.

The village was covered in corpses, and was now empty.

The dilapidated village, with only a few thatched houses, seemed especially desolate.

Bennett's soul floated in front of Nie Yan, paused for a moment, and floated towards one of the thatched huts.

Nie Yan followed behind and went inside, finding it to be a shop, with several broken wooden counters displaying various items, including animal skins, animal bones, various tools, gems, etc. A large pile of scrolls was placed in the corner, with as many as a hundred scrolls.

Nie Yan took a look. These scrolls were all high-level scrolls, of all types. There were at least twenty types, and he estimated that their total value was at least fifty or sixty thousand gold coins. The gems and other items next to them were probably worth over a hundred thousand gold coins.

Nie Yan put all these things into his bag.

Nie Yan understood why the players of the two factions liked to attack each other's villages and towns. Because in the other side's territory, they could freely loot the spoils without worrying about decreasing reputation. On the contrary, they could gain honor. This temptation was very great.

Bennett's soul landed on a thumb-sized stone. The stone had been polished and was very smooth, with a shape somewhat close to an oval, but very irregular.

Finas Stone: Special Item, Effect: Unknown.

Nie Yan looked at the attributes of this stone. The attributes of this stone were unknown, but he received a system notification.

Task Progress: Take the Finas Stone to the old goblin Monad, he will give you some hints.

This was one of the steps in the task. The task did not indicate the location of the old goblin Monad. Nie Yan glanced at Bennett's soul floating in the air, it might know!

He searched the vicinity and found nothing else. Nie Yan retreated from this short, broken building.

At this time, the news that Nie Yan had occupied the village and slaughtered three or four hundred people had spread like wildfire in the dark faction, causing a huge reaction among the players. A player, single-handedly attacking a village guarded by five or six hundred players and dozens of npcs, was an incredible feat. Those who died in Nie Yan's hands, besides the ordinary players, included a top-tier master from the Undead Empire, and three Silver Wings!

Only Nie Yan could do such a crazy thing.

The players of the dark faction had a deeper understanding of Nie Yan's strength. For a period of time afterwards, few people dared to offend Nie Yan again. Those who had excitedly wanted to participate in the siege of Nie Yan and seize the Scythe of Death and the Battle Hammer of Paternoster were poured a bucket of cold water, finally calming down. That person was not someone who could be slaughtered at will, but Crazy Thief Nie Yan!

Nie Yan walked to the open space in the center of the village and was about to leave when a wave of scorching heat swept over, howling past, almost overturning all the buildings on both sides.

A tall figure appeared in Nie Yan's vision. The guy looked very strange, somewhat like a human, somewhat like a demon, with a pair of horns on his head and a long tail behind him, but no fleshy wings on his back.

The guy walked over step by step, and time seemed to stand still. His eyes emitted a strange red light, as if his soul would be taken away with just one glance.

A powerful Boss-level npc!

This was Nie Yan's first reaction after seeing the guy. He suddenly found his body very stiff, and it was very difficult to move. He looked at his status, it was a fear effect!

Not only Nie Yan, but also the Golden Land Dragon, the Shadow Assassin, and the Paladin Leves were stiffly standing in place.

Nie Yan used a Super Appraisal.

Demihuman Angud: Legendary Demon, Level 180 Demonized Lord.

This guy, like the Banshee Princess Aina at her peak, was a level 180 Demonized Lord.

The Demihuman Angud walked closer and closer. When he passed the Paladin Leves, he threw a punch. With a bang, the Paladin Leves was sent flying, instant kill!

Where did this guy come from! Nie Yan didn't expect that he would attract such a powerful Boss just by slaughtering a village. The situation was a bit bad. Encountering such a high-level Demonized Lord, today was probably going to be a close call.

He was really unlucky. Angel Felling had slaughtered at least a dozen villages and towns in the Saturn Empire, but nothing had ever happened. And Nie Yan, he had just slaughtered a village that couldn't be smaller! And he had attracted such a fierce guy!

Back then, in order to kill the Banshee Princess Aina, Nie Yan had mobilized hundreds of thousands of people, more than three hundred arrow towers and turrets, and more than fifty catapults. Half of Okoron City had been demolished. And now, he had to face the Demihuman Angud alone, with absolutely no hope of winning.
