Chapter 121: Demon · Death's Eye
[🎉 Shoutout to CyberArsonist for joining patreon. Thank you very much.🤗]
The opponent's arrogant and dismissive attitude instantly enraged Overlord Aura.
The Overlord Guild was known for its overbearing style, and no one had ever dared to be so brazen in front of them.
Thinking that the silver-armored archer might be the "guild leader" mentioned by Ouyang Ling'er earlier, Overlord Aura coldly shouted at him:
"Want to play the hero? Make sure you're capable first."
He then pointed at the opposing group and ordered, "Brothers, attack! Kill them all!"
Upon receiving the command, the eleven Overlord Guild players present brandished their weapons and charged toward the silver-armored archer.
The archer, calm and unhurried, raised his bow to take action.
Just then, a girl standing beside him, with her hair tied in a bun and an incredibly striking and icy face, said to the archer:
"There's no need for Brother Tianyu to dirty his hands with this rabble. Leave it to Xin'er."
With that, the assassin girl brandished her twin daggers, and her figure flashed like a mirage, dashing into the enemy ranks with a whoosh.
Slash, slash, slash!
With lightning speed, she weaved through the Overlord Guild members, dealing damage of 3000-4000 points with each strike.
In mere moments, she had knocked down all eleven Overlord Guild members, each at levels 32-33, leaving them on the ground with just 1 HP, writhing in agony.
During this entire process, the Overlord Guild members didn't even manage to touch her once.
The difference in strength was utterly incomparable.
Seeing his dozen teammates, who were full of energy just a moment ago, all fall to the ground wailing in pain the next second, Overlord Domineering Aura stumbled backward several steps in terror, his eyes filled with fear.
It was only now that he realized he had provoked someone far beyond his league.
Seizing the opportunity while the other side wasn't going for the kill, Overlord Domineering Aura scrambled to retreat with his men in disarray.
The assassin girl gracefully sheathed her daggers, her movements fluid and efficient.
Her previously hidden ID was now revealed due to her malicious attack on white-name players, displayed in gray text:
[Lv35 Second-Class Rare-Rank Glimmering Assassin · Tian Xin'er]
Seeing this, Ouyang Ling'er quickly approached to thank them:
"Thank you for helping me."
After the greetings, Ouyang Ling'er, who was also an assassin, couldn't help but say to Tian Xin'er, "Big sister, you're amazing!"
Tian Xin'er gave her a slight smile. "You're welcome."
Then she followed her teammates and left without further ado.
Around them, the onlookers whispered among themselves:
"That Tian Xin'er is incredible. Who would've thought a seemingly fragile girl could single-handedly crush more than ten members of the Overlord Guild? What power!"
"Fragile? Please. She's the eldest daughter of the Tian family, the top family in Tianjing."
"No wonder. The Tian family is known for its elite talents. I heard that their family members start learning martial arts and combat skills at the age of ten, which significantly increases their chances of awakening as professionals. Not to mention their physical attributes are far superior to ordinary people."
"She's stunning too! Imagine having a girlfriend like her—I'd happily lose ten years of my life for that."
As the Tian family team left, Zhang Yue arrived from the direction of the Dawn Sanctuary.
After failing to find a suitable location for his offline studio, he had logged back in, just in time to witness the earlier events.
At the same time, Ouyang Ling'er noticed Zhang Yue and rushed over to ask, "Guild leader, do you know the Tian family?"
"I don't."
"Then why did they save me just now?"
Zhang Yue was puzzled as well.
"Why are the Tian family people here?"
Thinking back, Zhang Yue suddenly remembered what Infinite Phantom had mentioned: the Infinite Guild was backed by the Tian family, the top family in Tianjing. He muttered to himself:
"Could they be reinforcements invited by the Infinite Guild?"
'Or perhaps they were here for the Gate of Hell.'
Since only the Fifth World entry points in Tianlang, Linhai, and Ganyang had opened Gate of Hell, professionals from other regions could only log in here to access them.
Zhang Yue realized he needed to secure the Hell Chest inside the Gate of Hell as soon as possible.
After regrouping with Ouyang Ling'er, Ning Tiantian, and the others at the Flesh Eating Worm Kingdom and meeting up with Lin Tian and Wu Haotian, the five-person team began hunting carnivorous worms.
The efficiency of hunting solo was too low.
It took Zhang Yue an entire day to gather about a hundred Level 5 Magic Crystals.
Additionally, by closely monitoring the interdimensional trading market, he managed to purchase the remaining crystals he needed, eventually gathering 300 Level 5 Magic Crystals.
Finally, Zhang Yue handed the crystals and the crafting blueprint for Death's Eye to Liu Yao, who entrusted them to the master artisan, Xiao Jiba of the Xiao family, to create the Death's Eye.
Now all he had to do was wait for its completion, after which he could use it to re-enter the Gate of Hell and claim the Hell Chest.
To his surprise, the legendary artisan Xiao Jiba worked exceptionally fast.
In just one night, the Death's Eye was forged.
The next morning, Zhang Yue logged in to receive the equipment Liu Yao delivered to him:

'With Death's Eye's attack bonus and 15% vamp effect, plus the Hell Boots' speed, the Hell Chest should be within reach.'
