Chapter 344: Chapter 208: Tisi Island, Heartless Ninja Dojo_1
[Maintain your stealth and silently infiltrate the cabin.]
[There are nearly ten small cabins inside the three-masted ship, lined on both sides of the corridor. Through the crack of the half-opened shabby wooden doors, you can observe the ’Fire Worshiping Heartless People’ burglars standing silently inside.]
[At the end of the ship cabin is an independent large cabin. The appearance of its door indicates that it’s the dwelling of the person with the highest status on the ship.]
[Do you want to infiltrate the small cabins, or head straight to the end of the corridor?]
[You quietly move your feet, coming to the outside of the large cabin. You secretly observe the situation inside through the door crack.]
[You see a burly burglar kneeling on both knees, reporting what he had just seen to the person in front of him.]
[It is a figure wearing a mask. It is dressed in a black sleeveless leather suit, with a long shawl of the same color hung around its neck and draped behind. There are several shurikens pinned to its thighs, and a ninja sword carried on its back.]
[You have discovered a ’Fire Worshiping Heartless Ninja’!]
[You lurk outside the door, eavesdropping on the conversation between the two...]
[The ninja seems to be very disappointed with the content of the report, and its hoarse voice comes over...]
[The Vermillion State is sending fewer and fewer envoys, this time only one was dispatched, and they were devoured by sea monsters before they could spot the ship...]
[Not a single piece of military equipment was found on the ship, even the ’Command Baton’ ordered by the general has disappeared without a trace.]
[The ’Fire Worshiping Heartless Ninja’ becomes more and more enraged as it speaks, and slowly pulls out the ninja sword from its back. This ninja sword is peculiar, its body shaped like a Tachi, yet it is longer than an average Tachi. Its curvature is not as dramatic as that of a Tachi, and it’s carried on the back in a fashion typical for a ninja sword.]
[The burglar prostrated on the ground can’t help trembling, but dares not resist. Until a flash of the icy blade passes, a splash of black flame ends abruptly, and with a "gush" sound, the burglar’s head rolls down, and its body twitches and collapses on the ground.]
[The leader of the ’Fire Worshiping Heartless Burglars’ has died, but you did not receive any experience points.]
[The black-clothed ninja pays no attention to the headless corpse but instead sits down on the ground and begins to meditate in silence...]
[...]
[Do you want to sneak into the cabin and kill the ninja?]
Lin Xun raises an eyebrow.
He doesn’t know whether the ninja is an elite mob or a mini boss, but he is certain that it is the commander on the ship. As long as he takes it over, he can achieve his goal.
[You quietly open the door without making a sound, slowly sneak up behind the figure sitting cross-legged, and flick out the blade from your knuckle. You stab at the back of the ninja’s heart...]
[The ninja suddenly twists around and stands up, with the Tachi already grasped in its hand. The gleaming blades collide and a black fire flickers. It blocks your full force attack and retreats several steps in a row.]
[The ninja coldly looks at you, who has revealed your form because the attack failed. It turns around and a purple mist surrounds it...]
[You launch another attack, your blade piercing the mist, but it doesn’t hit the enemy... When the mist dissipates, the ninja’s figure has disappeared from the spot!]
[You look around the cabin, which is empty except for you.]
[You understand that the ninja has left, your assassination plan has failed!]
[Do you want to leave the cabin, or do you want to search for the ninja in this place?]
Lin Xun, despite not having successfully killed the monster, is not disappointed but instead greatly rejoiced.
"This ninja also has a stealth skill, and it seems to be quite strong on the surface... Well, your body will be mine soon!"
"Dancer, it’s not about being capricious, but about the survival of the fittest."
He doesn’t pay attention to the options provided by the underworld game.
The ninja likely hasn’t left yet and is most likely lurking around, waiting for a chance to launch a thunderous attack.
The underworld game had a long way to go to mislead him.
[You possess the body of the ’Curious Primordial Hermit’!]
[You swing the chain blade you hold, rotate it on the spot, and the black flame-burning flesh and bone lock chain sweeps out, engulfing everything in the cabin!]
[A transparent figure is wrapped in a lock chain, revealing its form not far behind you. It is the ’Fire Worshiping Heartless Ninja’ who disappeared!]
[You pull hard, and the ninja flies off the ground towards you...]
[The ninja lets out a cry, your Inferno is so... spare me, master!]
[Before it could finish speaking, a blade burning with black Dragon Flame penetrates its heart!]
[You defeated the ’Fire Worshiping Heartless Ninja’ and your experience value slightly increased.]
[You received ’Toxic Ninja Shuriken’ *1 (Throwing item)]
[You look at the black-faced corpse in front of you...]
[The ’Fire Worshiping Heartless Ninja’s’ shell: Being a lower ninja, the lowest level of strength among the Heartless People Ninjas, it’s only slightly more powerful than a Ninja Dog. However, even so, it is a formal member of the Heartless People and far from comparable to the ordinary wilderness burglars. It died from a wound that pierced its heart and severe toxins. Affinity: 127% (+55%)]
[Do you want to possess this shell?]
He quickly took possession of the ninja and opened the shell panel to check.
[Shell - ’Fire Worshiping Heartless Ninja’]
[True Name: Shan Shangsun]
[Affinity: 127% (+55%). Affinity exceeds the critical point, shell quality improves!]
[Shell Quality: Rare Level]
[Shell Level: 57 (+12↑)]
[Shell Equipment: Heartless Ninja Suit (Excellent Level): ...]
[Shell Equipment: Special Heartless Ninja Sword (Excellent Level): A standard ninja sword made in the image of the famous ’Dragon Sword Masamune’, but it captures only the form, not the spirit.]
[Shell Skill: Purple Mist Escape Technique (Rare Level): A ninja escape technique that is still not mastered. Not only is the stealth effect unsatisfactory, but the use of an item called ’Purple Mist Bomb’ is also necessary for successful execution.]
