Divine Flame Crystal

Chapter 394: False Perfect Partner

Xingluo's thought was only fleeting, and in fact not too long had passed. He waved his hand to erase all traces of this place, including of course the woman's memory of that period, in order to protect himself and also to allow the woman to get out of the emotional shadow of the past as soon as possible.

For a woman, this brief memory is not only painful but also beautiful. Although it is short, it is unforgettable for her, so this experience is very likely to cause the other party to have serious psychological problems. Xingluo does not want to see this happen, but he actually hates this kind of thing of forcing others to make decisions, but after all, the other party is a bystander, and his mistake is that he did not knock the other party unconscious at the first time, so he could only do this. He does not want others to know that he is a time and space wizard, and he also has people to protect. In order to avoid complications, he can only erase the other party's memory. Although it is a bit cruel, this is a world of the survival of the fittest. If you want to have choices, you have to become strong, so that you can have choices, instead of being chosen.

Xingluo doesn't like being chosen, so he has been working hard to make himself the person with the right to choose. Human life is very short. When this woman was thinking about getting married, she met a false perfect partner. This is human. Even though they know that it is not an existence that they can touch, they still have to try, like a moth to a flame. This is the beauty of love. If she really meets someone who loves her, maybe the two of them will have a happy ending, but this is reality. It is impossible. There will not be a person second only to the Dragon Knight who suddenly falls in love with an ordinary woman. First of all, the time is too short and he has no time to understand whether her soul is interesting. Secondly, this woman does not have a stunning face, and the Scarlet Rose Knight will not fall in love at first sight. So this matter is destined to reveal weirdness. It's just that the woman was overwhelmed by the so-called love and did not realize the problem, so it was destined to be a tragedy. If Xingluo hadn't acted in time, even her life would have been lost here.

The commotion here was not big, and the fight did not last long in total. After all, the opponent was just a knight who had just started to learn the power of time and space. Even though his realm was a little higher than his, it could not make up for the gap between him and the Rose Knight. The magic trap prepared by Xingluo did not work during this evacuation, but after he left here and returned to the base, he still detonated it remotely. He was afraid that there might be something on it that could identify his identity, so he simply destroyed it.

On the way back, the shadow old man Arnold suddenly appeared, gave Xingluo a reward, and told him that if he wanted to advance, there was a task here that was very suitable for him. Xingluo frowned. He rarely heard the old man speak in this way. He seemed to be very sure about this matter. Xingluo was a little doubtful. He looked at the shadow teacher Arnold.

The old shadow man Arnold seemed to know what Xingluo was thinking. He looked at him with some pride and said, "Assassinate a cardinal, and then you can be directly promoted to a shadow-level killer and participate in the development and decision-making of the Shadow Organization. Of course, you can only listen in, but this is enough. At that time, you can know some development trends of the Shadow and some secret information in advance. Moreover, only the Shadow Pavilion Master can assign tasks to you. Of course, if you are willing, you can still do the tasks."

Xingluo nodded slightly when he heard this. After paying so much, he finally reached this step. He was just a cardinal. Even though he was stronger than Scarlet Rose, he also improved himself in the battle with Scarlet Rose and had a deeper understanding of the art of killing.

Xingluo sensed the change in the old man. As he already knew the other party's identity, he planned to ask directly: "You are Arnold, right? Arnold, the Shadow God of Death!"

Arnold was not at all panicked when Xingluo discovered his identity, and even his heart was as steady as ever. This was a compulsory course for every killer. "That's right."

Xingluo smiled and nodded, "In that case, I won't beat around the bush. If you want to become a killing god, what tasks do you need to complete?"

Arnold's pupils shrank, as if he was lost in memories, but Xingluo didn't wait too long. Arnold said, "If you want to become a killing god, you have to assassinate a demigod-level strongman."

Xingluo's heart skipped a few beats when he heard this. Demigod, what a terrifying existence. Demigod would only appear when one is above the title of Grand Mage and even signs a non-aggression pact with the Monster Forest. Those are the top powers on the continent. Among the top forces, only the immortal ones would occasionally give birth to demigod-like beings.

The legendary Pope is a demigod, as is the Dragon Clan Chief. In some secluded families, demigods can occasionally be found. Even the Dean of the Fallen God Academy is not a demigod. However, the title of Grand Mage also depends on the ranking, and the Dean is a powerful person who ranks high.

Xingluo was surprised that the other party could actually kill a demigod. Doesn't that mean his strength has also reached that of a demigod? Arnold seemed to see what Xingluo was thinking, "Don't worry, my strength is not that of a demigod, but isn't killing people above one's level a compulsory course for us assassins? As long as we are well prepared, it is not impossible to kill a god."

Arnold said such arrogant words in the most ordinary words. Xingluo was shocked again. This old man with an ordinary appearance had a surprising past and did such shocking things. Yes, killers are such a existence. Their defense may be weak, but no one will doubt their attack power. Some killers even give up training their defense in order to improve their attack power. They only seek to kill with one blow and never tremble. If they cannot kill the opponent, they will be killed by the opponent.

Arnold knew that Xingluo was interested in his past, but he didn't want to talk about it at the moment. Xingluo was about to say something but stopped. Arnold laughed to himself, "Let's talk about this later. The most important thing now is to complete this mission and then advance to Shadow."

Xingluo also knew that this matter might involve some secrets of the other party, so it was inconvenient to ask more questions and began to shift his attention to the assassination of the cardinal.

"This cardinal appears to be a kind-hearted man who has helped many orphans, but that is only on the surface. He uses these rescued orphans to conduct some unknown experiments." Arnold couldn't help but pause when he said this. It was obvious that he could not accept this.

Xingluo also took a breath of cold air. This matter had seriously crossed his bottom line. This alone was enough for him to kill the other party. Xingluo nodded and did not let the other party continue talking. Instead, he began to ask about the other party's strength.
