The system announcement rang through the minds of every assassin player in Black Stone Fortress, like a depth charge dropped into a still lake.
After a brief, deathly silence came an uproar like a landslide and a tidal wave.
"Swift Shadow Divine Stone? A new advanced class? Assassin of Speed?"
"Heavens! Is this real? I'm not dreaming, am I?"
"Quick! To the central square! The divine stone God Xiao placed is there!"
On the walls, inside the fortress, in every corner—every player whose class was assassin went wild.
They abandoned their quests and the fights they were in. Eyes shining, they sprinted toward the open ground outside the walls as fast as they possibly could.
This was an opportunity bestowed by a god himself!
A new path beyond the existing class system!
Dragon Fights in the Wild watched the frenzy before him with nothing but a wry smile.
Why couldn't he have been an assassin?
He looked again at the man who had caused it all. Dawn merely watched the assassin players surging toward him like a tide, looking almost bored.
There was no pride on Dawn's face, as though he had done something utterly trivial.
And that was exactly what he thought.
According to the guild leader, gods walking among mortals needed believers.
Rather than wait for people to worship him, it was better to offer them something first and let them see whom it was wisest to believe in.
As the first wave of assassin players rushed within a hundred meters of the divine stone, Dawn's figure flickered and vanished without a trace.
He had arrived without a sound and left just as silently.
All that remained was a cold stone monument and thousands of players about to go mad over it.
