[1-200] THE LORD'S EMPIRE

Chapter 104 - Underworld Demon

At this moment, the monster’s large eye was staring at Zhao Fu without a trace of emotion. Following this, the monster’s body vanished and appeared before Zhao Fu, its claw reaching towards Zhao Fu as if it wanted to dig out his heart.

Zhao Fu quickly leaped to the side and avoided its claw.

Bang!

A muffled explosion sounded out as its claw stabbed half a meter deep into the tree trunk. Right after dodging the claws, Zhao Fu saw an opportunity and slashed out with his hidden blade towards the monster. However, in the next second, the monster whipped its other claw towards Zhao Fu.

Zhao Fu’s hidden blade was unable to connect with the monster at all, and his entire body was sent flying again. After hitting the ground, Zhao Fu felt as if his body was going to collapse, and he thought to himself, “How is this monster so strong and so fast?!”

However, Zhao Fu suddenly realized that he had forgotten something, and he thought to himself, “Aiya, I’m an Assassin!”

Assassins were extremely fast and incredibly agile, and Zhao Fu had not used the strengths of his profession at all.

At this moment, the monster once again appeared in front of where Zhao Fu was and raised its arms, slamming them down on Zhao Fu, who was on the ground.

Zhao Fu immediately activated Ghost Form, which was a skill that could allow his body to become abnormally agile.

When the monster’s claws were about to hit him, Zhao Fu’s body performed a strange twist as he narrowly avoided the monster’s attack, and he quickly flipped to his feet from the ground.

In the next second, Zhao Fu immediately used Blur, and he quickly ran and leapt around the monster. The monster looked around with its single eye to track Zhao Fu’s movements.

Suddenly, a black blur flashed near the monster. However, when it tried to grab the monster, it caught nothing. Zhao Fu appeared at the other side of the monster’s body, but it was able to react incredibly quickly, swinging its other claw towards Zhao Fu.

However, Zhao Fu bent backwards as lithely as a snake and dodged the attack. As he swung back up, his hidden blade slashed across the monster’s waist, leaving a 15-centimeter wide injury.

“Roarrr!!!” the monster howled in pain. It turned its body and tried to claw Zhao Fu, but Zhao Fu’s body had already turned into a blur and reappeared five meters away.

This was the first time that Zhao Fu had been able to hit the monster, and he was quite happy. However, his expression became serious because he saw that the wound he had created healed in just seconds, and it was to the point that there was not even a scar left.

After the wound closed, the monster once again rushed at Zhao Fu. Zhao Fu decided to use the Assassin profession’s speed and agility to its fullest by choosing to evade and dodge instead of meeting the monster head-on.

At the same time, Zhao Fu gradually discovered the monster’s openings. Every time it attacked, it would leave openings on both sides of its waist. Zhao Fu could take advantage of this and continuously injure the monster, but no matter how much he injured it, it would be able to quickly recover, and its strength did not seem to go down at all.

There was almost no way to defeat this monster, and Zhao Fu could only think like an Assassin. He realized that he had been making a mistake: Assassins existed to assassinate their targets, and this required them to kill in a single blow. Often, Assassins would only have a single chance, and once they missed it, the opportunity would not present itself again.

Normally, the lethal areas were the heart and the head, and this monster’s weaknesses were most likely those two places as well. After coming to this realization, Zhao Fu started to face off against the monster again.

He first left a few injuries on the monster’s stomach and waist area, causing it to roar angrily and attack Zhao Fu wildly. Its claws glinted with light, and anyone who was hit by them would have been reduced to scraps.

Zhao Fu quickly dodged, his heart incredibly calm without a trace of panic. He did not continue attacking because he had completely immersed himself in the identity of an Assassin. Only that way would his heart fully fuse with the Assassin profession.

As the monster madly rained down attacks, Zhao Fu continuously dodged. Suddenly, Zhao Fu’s eyes flashed as he ducked under one of the monster’s swipes, leaned forwards, stretched out his right hand, and used the Assassination Technique. His hidden blade flashed with a dark light as it stabbed forwards.

Chi!

The sound of the hidden blade piercing into flesh sounded out as the hidden blade pierced the monster’s heart. At that moment, both parties stopped moving.
