King of Assassins Chapter 317 - 282 Script

The waters of Green Light Lake are very cool, Shi the Thirty-seventh always feels happy when he enters.

Today, however, he wasn’t happy. He brushed off casually in the water and returned to the shore.

The person opposite him kept his eyes closed all the while, it was unclear what he intended to do.

Shi the Thirty-seventh was also a little puzzled; shouldn’t a blind person be nothing but useless?

When the tribe gave birth to children with innate disabilities, they were executed on the spot. During tis of food scarcity, these executed children were even eaten.

Shi the Thirty-seventh did not like doing this, mainly because children didn’t taste good.

He never anticipated that one day he himself might be eaten, let alone by weak humans.

As Shi the Thirty-seventh stepped ashore, he glanced at the mushroom field.

Several large mushrooms had been blasted into pieces by the Thunder Light. Spores were flying wildly everywhere. He even slled a hint of freshness.

Of course, the strongest scent was the burnt sll of flesh, faintly mixed with a roasted at aroma.

The scent was strong enough to be detectable dozens of miles away.

Shi the Thirty-seventh looked uneasily at Gao Xuan, uncertain how well-done the other intended to roast him.

Unable to restrain himself, he spoke, "We lizardn don’t taste good. Our at is too tough, it gets burnt easily upon roasting..."

Shi the Thirty-seventh said this with a heavily accented pronunciation, his forked tongue giving his voice an eerie quiver.

The Alliance’s standard language made him sound like he was speaking a foreign tongue.

Gao Xuan waved a hand saying, "Don’t overdo it with your performance."

Shi the Thirty-seventh was stunned, unable to grasp such a complex sentence.

"Stop babbling, show the way."

Realizing his mistake, Gao Xuan issued a direct command: "Lead us to your settlent."

Shi the Thirty-seventh understood this ti, first surprised then pleased.

This human actually dared venture to their tribe’s den; his courage was truly trendous. But he was courting death.

His tribe had many grown warriors and many strong mother lizardn.

No matter how skillful this human might be, how many could he possibly slay?

Thinking of the fierce and unparalleled electricity, Shi the Thirty-seventh felt a flicker of fear.

In his lifeti, he had never seen such terrifying power.

Nonetheless, such powerful force must surely have limitations. The human was stepping into their den, ready to et his end.

Shi the Thirty-seventh reassured himself, not believing anyone in the world could defeat his tribe.

Gao Xuan found Shi the Thirty-seventh quite interesting, constantly engaging him in conversation.

Due to cultural gaps and racial differences, Gao Xuan posed many questions but received few useful replies.

Shi the Thirty-seventh wasn’t lacking in intelligence; he simply hadn’t received much education. Living in such a primitive environnt, his mind was fixated on fighting, eating, sleeping, and mating.

By observing Shi the Thirty-seventh, Gao Xuan could discern that the lizardn’s civilization remained rather primitive and highly backward.

This race shouldn’t pose a threat to humans.

Even with racial superiority and favorable environnt, it shouldn’t hinder humans from mining.

Gao Xuan figured there was more to the situation beneath its surface.

He couldn’t discount the possibility that so lizardman tribes had evolved, mastering higher technologies and greater knowledge, thus earning the qualification to challenge humans in the underworld.

However, as a whole, lizardn shouldn’t be a significant threat to humans.

Shi the Thirty-seventh’s tribe resided within rocky caverns. The underworld’s complex spaces and intense electromagnetic interference ant Gao Xuan only discovered the intricately constructed cavern upon approaching closely.

The cavern was deep with an array of passageways. At its front, a few large fire pits emitted dark red light.

In the dim underworld, the cave entrance seed unusually bright.

The high temperature emanating from the fire pits also drove away insects, wild beasts.

As Shi the Thirty-seventh reached the entrance, several young lizardn sprang out to greet him.

These lizardn extended their hands towards Shi the Thirty-seventh, asking for things.

Suddenly, Shi the Thirty-seventh emitted a shrill call, alerting the tribe to the highest level of alarm.

He was tasked with patrolling and guarding, ensuring the tribe’s safety. He knew precisely what alarm signal to send.

Gao Xuan stood smiling behind Shi the Thirty-seventh, not obstructing him.

After Shi the Thirty-seventh raised the alarm, chaos ensued within the cavern.

Many lizard warriors wielding weapons dashed out, while so mother lizardn hurriedly fled deeper into the cavern.

Overall, the lizardn proved themselves a battle-hardened race, responding swiftly and with courage.

Upon receiving the alert, everyone reacted imdiately, whether their actions were correct or not.

Even the young lizardn beside Shi the Thirty-seventh drew their swords, watching him warily.

Chaos mixed with courage and fighting spirit, was this the end of it?

Gao Xuan felt slightly disappointed; such a lizardman tribe, once found in their lair, could be obliterated by a single Cloud Burst Bomb.

Nonetheless, he had to test them first.

Gao Xuan activated the Godslaying Sword, and several lizardn saw a flash of bloodshed, their heads all sailing away.

Shi the Thirty-seventh was greatly astonished, pulling out his sword to fight just as a blood light entered the cavern.

Shi the Thirty-seventh hesitated for a mont, torn by his feelings for the tribe, before gritting his teeth and charging into the cavern.

Inside the cavern, blood was everywhere; corpses of his tribesn littered the ground, the thick odor of blood stifling his breath.

The deeper Shi the Thirty-seventh ventured, the greater his fear, realizing how terrifying the human was and knowing he too would et death if he continued.

His fear of death made him waver.

Then, he heard a Dragon Roar, the voice of the Dragon God, invoked by the tribe’s priest seeking its aid.

Shi the Thirty-seventh had unwavering faith in the Dragon God. He imdiately rushed towards the altar deep in the cave.

He had participated in many rituals, and he was very familiar with the location of the altar.

Following a path he knew so well, Shi the Thirty-seventh quickly reached the altar.

In an open space, a black altar stood there. Above the altar was a bust of the Dragon God.

On the day of the ritual, the priest would lead everyone in chanting prayers and offering precious sacrifices to the Dragon God.

Now, however, the area in front of the altar was full of dead bodies. Under the eternal candlelight, the head of the priest with a Golden Crown was particularly striking.

The priest’s eyes were wide open, full of resentnt and anger. Around the priest were formidable clan warriors, including an exceptionally robust clan leader.

The nearly three-ter-tall body of the clan leader had been split into two. The way he died was extrely horrifying.

Amid the pile of bloody corpses, the human in the shining armor seed to have a slightly disappointed expression on his face.

Shi the Thirty-seventh stared blankly at Gao Xuan, completely unable to understand the aning of his expression.

At this mont, he even forgot to flee.

Gao Xuan turned his head and said to Shi the Thirty-seventh, "You didn’t run? I underestimated you."

Shi the Thirty-seventh trembled as he said, "How much can one person eat? Why kill so many?"

Gao Xuan said indifferently, "That’s the nature of racial conflict. There’s never any rcy."

Shi the Thirty-seventh wanted to speak again, but a flash of blood appeared, and his head flew off.

Gao Xuan slowly opened his eyes, his pure golden Celestial Dragon Eye staring directly at the crude Dragon God statue on the altar.

The statue was carved from a giant stone, depicting a dragon-headed human figure holding a longsword. It was very rough, barely presenting a recognizable image.

The Celestial Dragon Race liked to wander around, creating nurous Half-Dragon Races thanks to their superior genes.

These Half-Dragon Races interbred with other races, spreading the Celestial Dragon genes.

The Lizardn distinctly possessed Celestial Dragon genes, with strong defensive scales that could change color with the environnt.

That priest could even wield flas. These were clearly Celestial Dragon genetic powers.

The Dragon God worshiped here even had a shape sowhat resembling the Celestial Dragon Race.

However, real Celestial Dragons were extrely rare. A pureblood Celestial Dragon was a Golden Level life form at birth. Powerful Celestial Dragons were interested in treasures and gene propagation, not religious worship.

It’s unclear where this Dragon God erged from.

The statue truly emanated powerful Spiritual Power, forming a massive field that enveloped the entire cave.

Within this Spiritual Force Field, external Spiritual Power is suppressed. Those below Level 10 could even experience illusions and various negative emotions.

Even a Silver Sword Hero would be affected to so extent within the ntal field range of the statue.

The peculiar Spiritual Force Field within the statue acted like a battery, continuously absorbing the Source Power of Lizardman faith. The more followers there were, the stronger the Source Power, and the stronger the ntal field of the statue.

In so aspects, the Spiritual Force Field of the statue resembled the Celestial Demon Relic, though far less mystical. It could only absorb the Source Power of faith.

Even so, it was a remarkable thod.

With the statue as a foundation, it was enough to repel humanity’s high-tech weaponry.

Seeing it this way, it made so sense that the Lizardn could occupy the Underworld.

Gao Xuan casually slashed, and the Godslaying Sword cut the Dragon God statue in two. The altar below was also shattered.

The Spiritual Force Field of the Dragon God statue shattered as well, dispersing a large amount of Spiritual Power.

The Godslaying Sword circled around, absorbing all the scattered Spiritual Spirit.

Tens of thousands of Lizardn had offered Source Power to the statue for over ten years. All this beca nourishnt for the Godslaying Sword.

With millions of Lizardn, decades to centuries of accumulated Source Power, combined with the Evil God’s Divine Power, the Godslaying Sword should be able to upgrade.

In truth, the Godslaying Sword had absorbed a trace of Divinity from the Crimson Eye, and it had yet to be fully digested.

In contrast, the Spiritual Power provided by the Dragon God statue was very easy for the Godslaying Sword to absorb.

Gao Xuan suspected that perhaps the Godslaying Sword needed to level up to assimilate and absorb the Divinity of the Crimson Eye.

With so many Lizardn underground, it was just right to go and harvest them one by one.

The strong interference of the underground magnetic field greatly disrupted Gao Xuan’s Spiritual Wander. However, his Spiritual Power could wander the Star River, spanning lightyears.

No matter how strong the interference, Gao Xuan’s Spiritual Power could easily wander hundreds of kiloters.

With such a thod, finding the Lizardman Tribe was too easy.

While Gao Xuan wreaked havoc in the Underworld, Talos also led a team into the Underground World.

Talos chose the renowned Golden Mountain Mine. It’s said that a natural gold mountain was discovered in the Underworld a millennium ago, sparking a gold rush frenzy.

Companies and organizations from other Star Realms flocked to Sea Dragon Star. It later turned out that this was actually a ans to attract foreign mining companies.

Nevertheless, the fa of the Golden Mountain Mine has persisted.

After thousands of years of mining, the area beneath the Golden Mountain Mine was hollowed out. It was here that humans first encountered the Lizardn.

This place beca the frontline between Lizardn and humans. The incredibly complex tunnels and pits made the terrain exceptionally intricate. Strong electromagnetic interference disrupted all human technological reconnaissance thods.

In this region, humans and Lizardn fought for decades, making it the most famous demolition battlefield on Sea Dragon Star.

Talos felt confident as he led his team deep into the Golden Mountain Mine. Along the way, they encountered so Lizardn, but Talos’s team easily dealt with them.

With a team of all Silver Sword Heroes equipped with custom-made biochemical battle armor and various modern weapons, along with many Marvels, Talos’s team was considered luxurious.

By now, Talos and his team were more than a hundred kiloters underground, completely cut off from the surface.

A group of people remained in a semi-enclosed pit, with Talos discussing the next plan with his deputy, Doris.

Doris said, "The key is to find Gao Xuan. The Lizardn are insignificant."

She suggested, "Now we can activate the scenario!"

Talos nodded. He took out a leather-covered notebook from his pocket, opened it, and wrote two words in the protagonist column on the first page: Gao Xuan.

After a mont, the notebook turned the page automatically, and a line of writing appeared on the blank page: Gao Xuan arrived at a Lizardman settlent, drew out the xxx, and began to slaughter the Lizardn. It was a one-sided massacre, xxxxx...

Watching the fallen statue, Gao Xuan laughed...
