I gain permanent defense when attacked; even gods and demons can't hurt me.

Xiao Hei let out a deafening dragon roar and reappeared in front of Lin Yuan. According to Xiao Hei, after its evolution, it was not only larger in size, but also had a more slender and powerful body.

Its black scales became thicker, and their defensive capabilities increased dramatically.

In addition to improvements in physical attributes and defense, Xiao Hei has also successfully unlocked a brand new talent skill this time.

Lin Yuan checked Xiao Hei's attribute panel; the new talent skill was called [Annihilation Dragon Breath].

This is a breath attack with pure destructive power, far exceeding the power of Xiao Hei's previous ordinary dragon breath.

As time went by, the situation in front of Blood Moon Fortress had completely stabilized.

The military reconnaissance team confirmed that no large numbers of abyssal monsters had appeared in the surrounding wasteland.

That afternoon, Zuo Tiancheng arrived at Lin Yuan's dormitory and knocked on the door.

Zuo Tiancheng entered the room, looked at Lin Yuan, and explained his purpose with a somewhat serious expression.

He told Lin Yuan that Lin Yuan's detailed professional data on the battlefield had been classified as secret by the military command.

Although the military took measures to keep the information secret and cut off the channels for its widespread dissemination.

However, Lin Yuan's performance in the center of the battlefield was too dazzling, and his presence had been clearly noticed by the Abyss Order.

Zuo Tiancheng carefully analyzed the situation, stating that preventing the Abyss Cult from sending assassins was currently the top priority.

At the same time, the military leadership also wanted Lin Yuan to rest a bit and get away from the dangerous vortex of the front line.

For Lin Yuan's absolute safety, the command has made evacuation arrangements.

The command arranged for Lin Yuan and Zuo Tiancheng to leave immediately via a special military teleportation array.

They will return directly to the inner core area of ​​the Inland War Academy.

After listening to Zuo Tiancheng's explanation, Lin Yuan understood the military's good intentions. He nodded, indicating that he would obey the arrangements.

He quickly packed his belongings, checked his equipment, and then left the dormitory with Zuo Tiancheng.

The two left the dormitory building and, under secret escort, headed to the confidential teleportation hall at the core of the fortress.

Then, Zuo Tiancheng and Lin Yuan stepped into the center of the teleportation array.

As the military teleportation array shone brightly, Lin Yuan and Zuo Tiancheng instantly disappeared from the Blood Moon Fortress.

……

Let's go back a few days.

Deep underground on the edge of human territory lies a colossal structure built entirely of black monoliths.

This is an important branch of the Assassin's Hall, with a vast interior space and a very complex structure.

The hall was very dimly lit, with no natural light shining in.

The Assassin's Guild is a secretive organization that only cares about money and not people, and is not directly governed by any country or religious group.

It gathers the top professional assassins from various races, and a large number of bounty missions are posted here every day.

A man dressed in a black, tight-fitting night suit is sitting quietly in front of a cold metal table.

This man's codename is "Ghost Blade," and he is a top-ranking ace assassin within the Assassin's Guild.

Ghostblade is level 75 and possesses the extremely rare legendary class, [Shadow Necromancer Assassin].

The characteristics of this legendary class are very obvious: it completely abandons its defensive attributes and frontal combat capabilities.

In return, you gain rapid burst speed, and high lethality specifically designed for single targets. (Cola Novels, there's always a story waiting for you to unfold.)

Ghostblade's best fighting style is to ignore the target's normal physical armor and magic resistance.

He can use the numerous true damage skills that come with his profession to deliver a fatal blow to his target while in stealth.

His assassination record even includes a successful assassination of a level 80 shield warrior.

At this moment, Ghost Blade was holding a mission bounty order that had just been passed down by the higher-ups of the Assassin's Hall.

This bounty order is the exorbitant reward that the Abyss Order has issued for Lin Yuan.

The bounty notice clearly listed the deposit the Abyss Order was willing to pay and the reward after the deed was done.

This includes several powerful abyss weapons, as well as high-level lifespan crystals that can extend lifespan.

Ghost Blade carefully examined the list of lucrative rewards, a greedy look appearing in his eyes, and immediately accepted this exorbitantly priced mission.

He then opened the target intelligence data that came with the mission.

The first page of the document featured a clear photograph of Lin Yuan on the battlefield, with detailed information about the target below.

Name: Lin Yuan. Level: 41. Class: Greatshield Knight (Specific rating to be determined??).

The intelligence report also specifically noted that Lin Yuan possessed the ability to share group defenses, reminding the assassins who accepted the job to be aware of this.

Ghost Blade looked at Lin Yuan's level 41 and sneered disdainfully.

He is a level 75 legendary ace assassin with a full set of high-level assassination equipment.

However, when attempting to kill a level 41 student, the difference in strength between the two sides is a full 34 levels.

Moreover, the Assassin class has a significant advantage when facing a relatively slow-moving class like the Knight.

As for the high defensive capabilities mentioned in the intelligence, Ghostblade didn't take it seriously at all.

Because most of his skills deal true damage, they are specifically designed to counter classes that rely on armor for defense.

Ghostblade was confident in the assassination operation, believing it would be a very easy one-sided assassination mission.

In other words, the Abyss Order was really overpaying, actually offering such a high price.

He put away the mission information, used his stealth skill to disappear into the surrounding shadows, and left the underground hall to begin preparations for the operation.

At the same time, inside the core secret teleportation hall of the Blood Moon Fortress.

Lin Yuan and Zuo Tiancheng stood side by side in the very center of the large military teleportation array.

The officer in charge of activating the teleportation array entered the precise spatial coordinates of the Inland War Academy onto the control panel.

After confirming that the coordinate data was correct, the officer pressed the activation button for the teleportation array.

The complex spatial runes on the teleportation array floor began to light up one by one, emitting a strong silver-white spatial energy glow.

The silvery-white light rapidly rose upwards, completely enveloping Lin Yuan and Zuo Tiancheng's bodies.

With a strong fluctuation of spatial energy, the two figures instantly disappeared from the teleportation hall.

They officially stepped into the space teleportation channel connecting the front lines and the inland areas.

Inside the spatial teleportation channel was a vast white energy corridor, with the surrounding energy walls moving rapidly backward.

Everything was proceeding according to the normal transmission procedure, with no signs of anything unusual.

However, just as the teleportation was halfway through, an unexpected incident occurred.

At a crucial point along the spatial teleportation route, the well-prepared Ghost Blade had already laid an ambush.
