Bottom of the canyon.

Roger landed gracefully with the female assassin's body in his arms.

There's no need to rush things for your good brother.

The most important thing right now is how to deal with this guy.

Roger had two options—

1. Kill him directly.

2. Interrogate them, then kill them.

Roger would usually choose the former.

Because he himself is not good at interrogation.

None of the Quasi-Horned Demon were skilled in this art.

But this time the situation is a little different.

This was the first time Roger had ever been attacked without any reason!

The other party even blocked his Extraordinary Perception.

This made Roger sense something unusual.

"It would be best if we could get something out of them."

With that thought in mind, he casually placed the female assassin's body on the ground.

It was at this moment.

Roger keenly noticed the anomaly.

So he pressed his hand against the assassin's chest.

Then, with a forceful tug!...

Hint: You've discovered Wayne's breast prosthesis.

Lift up those enormous and shameful undergarments.

The interior was surprisingly open and honest.

This is a male assassin wearing prosthetic breasts!

"Another cunning old fox."

Roger grinned angrily.

What is wrong with this world?!

Why are all the enemies I encounter so treacherous?

The next second.

A flash of Crimson Moon Blade.

They chopped off the male assassin's head!

There's not much to say.

Roger didn't expect to get any useful information out of the old schemer.

To avoid any unforeseen complications.

It would be better to just chop it up and be done with it.

You can also gamble on the drop rate of Echo Orb.

"You killed Wayne (human/ Extraordinary Assassin /elite)"

You have gained 58 XP points.

"Extermination Order reward successfully obtained. You have acquired the feat from Wayne - Advanced Stealth."

"Advanced Stealth (6th Ring Feat / Self-Adaptive Adjustment): You have superior stealth skills, specifically: you have at least 200 points in 'Stealth'."

Your Movement Speed while in 'stealth' mode is 80% of your normal Movement Speed.

..."

"Advanced Stealth?"

Roger's eyes lit up! That strike was absolutely right.

Wayne's generosity was enough to make the patriarchs of the Wither Cult feel ashamed.

He gave me a very strong specialty.

And it just so happens to be the stealth ability that Roger desperately needs right now.

at the same time.

He also scattered Echo Orb all over the ground! Roger calmly began to count the spoils left behind by Wayne.

He also crushed the Echo Orb one by one.

It's been a long time since I listened to the radio.

"Why did that bastard Cisco get promoted faster than me?"

Just because he can sell **?

It's utterly ridiculous.

The thought of him being transferred back to the ' Xi Long Woodland ' headquarters soon, while I have to stay here and act as a babysitter for those rookies... is infuriating!

Perhaps I should ask him for the secret to a 100% success rate in assassinations?

No, I can't.

I am a man of dignity and principle.

"Cisco's generosity exceeded my expectations."

He really did tell me the secret.

But that's too absurd, isn't it?

Why wear that thing? Isn't it just a burden? I sincerely thanked him.

But I won't imitate him.

I am destined to forge my own path as an assassin.

remember.

Wayne.

You are a man of dignity and principle.

"Cisco's secret really works."

Although I strongly resist it.

But I gradually came to understand the significance of that thing.

Even in the face of life and death.

Most male humanoid creatures couldn't resist the urge to look at it even once.

That one glance was my best chance.

Praise to Cisco! There's nothing wrong with learning from the strong.

This does not diminish my dignity or principles.

Upon hearing this...

Roger chuckled, then became somewhat serious.

Large breasts do indeed have a fatal attraction for men's eyes.

This is a biological instinct.

They actually thought of using this to increase the success rate of the assassination.

That assassin named "Cisco" is indeed quite skilled.

He continued listening.

Finally, the most important one was found.

"The headquarters of the Assassin Alliance received an urgent mission."

The price offered by the ' Withered King ' is unimaginably high, which means that the enemy's strength is ridiculously powerful.

I was reluctant to take it on.

But I really can't stand this awful place anymore.

After securing this order.

Then I can go back to Xi Long Woodland.

I have to try, and I have to be quick.

I heard that Roy, that pervert, and that other, even more perverted guy, have also taken over.

Keywords: Assassin Alliance, Withered King.

Roger's expression shifted slightly, and his mind raced.

"I never expected to find an organization like the ' Assassin Alliance,' which sounds so shady, in a godforsaken place like this."

"Headquarters in Xi Long Woodland? That's the mysterious organization that trained Qiao Deli?"

"It's a bit surprising that the client is the Withered King. These days, even evil gods have to resort to outside help?"

In Roger's view

The biggest question surrounding this matter lies in the reaction of the "Withered King".

That's too fast.

They had just begun massacring the Withered Cultist.

The urgent task over there has already been arranged.

Even more puzzling is...

His followers, on the contrary, seemed completely unaware.

Whether it's Curse Priest or Vampire Witch.

They didn't seem to have come prepared.

From this perspective.

The Withered King seemed to be using them as bait.

He's betting everything on the Extraordinary Assassin!

This action reveals a very important piece of information: the Withered King doesn't seem to think his followers have a chance to kill Roger.

"So the remaining sheikhs are all counterfeit?"

Roger couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

That concludes the reasoning.

Roger would not speculate until he had further information.

For potential Extraordinary Assassin.

Roger wasn't actually that scared.

After all, he possessed Undying Heart and a resilient body.

What interested him most was actually the unimaginably high price that Wayne was thinking of.

It's a pity.

Wayne was unable to reveal any further information.

Besides the Echo Orb and breast prostheses.

The most valuable of Wayne's belongings was the dagger.

"Mad Fang Dagger (Dagger/Extraordinary)"

Rating: SSS

"Sharpness 17, Penetration 16, Strength 12, Balance 12"

Special Skill: Advanced Tear

"Advanced Tear: Wounds inflicted by the Mad Fang Dagger will continuously tear and bleed."

"Poisoning status: Poisoning (blood failure toxin) has been performed."

This thing's special effects are so-so.

But the basic attributes are too rigid.

Its 17 points of sharpness and 16 points of piercing alone are enough to place it in the SSS tier.

The other effects are merely bonuses.

Secondly, there's the Night Clothes Wayne is wearing.

"Assassin Master's Night Clothes (Wonderful Item): Within the target's sensory network, you have an extremely high probability of becoming the one who slips through the net."

Although it only has one attribute, that doesn't stop it from being an extremely powerful piece of equipment.

The most useful items among the remaining items are four "gecko suction cups" that can greatly increase climbing speed and a small bottle of "blood decay toxin (supernatural)" which has extremely strong lethality.

After tidying up these things.

Roger is ready to turn the tables!

He wasn't going to be foolish enough to wait for Extraordinary Assassin to come knocking on his door.

However, before that...

He still needs to do one more thing.

Above Little Thorn Valley.

Clumps of dark plants were creeping silently.

Suddenly.

A wide magic carpet flew up from the bottom of the valley.

A figure jumped down without fear and landed in the thicket of thorns!

Bang bang bang! Sparks flashed in the darkness.

One after another, thin needles suddenly pierced through.

Yet it struck one impenetrable barrier after another!

Those are "Iron Pants" that are half-body indestructible and a pair of "Iron Boots"! This is a pair of Noble Phantasms designed by Roger himself for his brothers.

The base components of the "Iron Armor Series" are made of high-quality steel with a small amount of Mithril mixed in.

Its exterior is covered with the scales of the Thunder Dragon.

Fragments of the Johnny Turtle were used to repair areas such as the ankles.

This makes the wearer very bulky.

However, it is surprisingly effective when dealing with large-scale Rampaging Thorn.

After a fierce and sudden attack.

Roger remained unmoved.

Rampaging Thorn realized something was wrong.

They began to scatter and flee.

But how could Roger give them a chance?

The Red Moon is in hand.

"The Prairie Fire" has begun! The next second...

The forty-meter-long flaming blade swung three times in a row on the cliff! A large number of Rampaging Thorn turned into ashes.

"You have killed 1 Rampaging Thorn, bringing your total number of Rampaging Thorn killed to 198."

"You have gained a small amount of the aura effect: Thorn Force Field".

The progress bar is moving forward rapidly.

It jumped to nearly 10% in one go.

"That feels good."

Roger slowly sheathed his sword.

The Quasi-Horned Demon jumped off the magic carpet on their own initiative to clean up the battlefield.

Roger stood there for a while.

Finding that none of them, except the gargoyles, had any sense, he could only shake his head and sigh, "Two more people, please."

"Help me upstairs to change my shoes and pants!"

The Quasi-Horned Demon then seemed to wake from their dream.

They swarmed forward and lifted Roger onto the magic carpet.

A moment later.

Roger felt much lighter after removing his half-body armor.

He opened the data panel.

I found the information I had browsed before.

"Hint: You have sensed Summoner Roy's malice."

"The Assassin Alliance's methods are so unconventional? They even have Summoners?"

He thought about it.

I've decided to try divination.

"Divination: Summoner Roy's Position"

"Divination result: Summoner Roy is located 5.8 kilometers to the southwest of you."

Roger didn't say a word.

It increased the flight altitude of the magic carpet.

Centered around Roger.

Every detail of the scenery within 7.2 kilometers is clearly visible.

Not long after.

He found the location of Summoner Roy! It was a farm that had just been ransacked.

Outside the farm.

A pack of wolves were engrossed in gnawing on the corpse.

In a Pumpkin Field on the farm.

A tall man was engaging in illicit relations with a mountain wolf as tall as a person! That must be the summoner Roy and his summoned creature.

Even more outrageous is...

The mountain wolf seems to be taking the initiative.

A thin, weak wolf was also loitering and watching nearby.

He looked eager to try.

Roger silently watched all of this, then rode the magic carpet closer.

We've reached roughly the same position.

He jumped out of the car and started stealth driving.

Then he went to the farm alone.

30 minutes later.

The fierce battle in the Pumpkin Field continues.

Roy and the "Mountain Wolf Leader" have switched sides several times.

The thin, weak wolf was still lingering.

It could never find an opportunity to intervene.

All I could do was watch silently from outside.

Roger remained hidden in the shadows.

He had been watching this show for a good 10 minutes.

"It's time to end this absurd situation."

A thought suddenly occurred to him.

The figure shot up instantly! The Red Moon's shadow flashed by.

Roger cleaved the skinny mountain wolf that had been hesitating and watching in two with a single stroke!

"You killed Roy (human/extraordinary summoner/elite)"

"Extermination Order reward successfully obtained. You have acquired Roy's specialty - Hand-Brewing Master."

"Hand-Brewing Master: You are very good at grinding coffee beans."

You are also very good at brewing and extracting coffee.

"Xi Long Woodland really that wealthy? Coffee, a cash crop, is so common there?"

He gazed at the wolf carcass that was gradually transforming back into human form.

Roger seemed to be deep in thought.
