Chapter 501: The Mystery of the Blue Skin (2)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Now that the owner of the fog had left, he had to deal with this blue-skinned assassin himself.

He clenched his fists at the thought, immediately, the Demon Dragon Rune Crystal was activated and endless power was injected into his body.

The surface of his fist was covered by the black energy derived from the rune crystal.

He took a step forward and punched the blue-skinned assassin’s skull.

The blue-skinned assassin was vigilant. He retreated and aimed the scythe at Feng Qi’s head.

Confronted with the blue-skinned assassin, who surpassed him in speed, Feng Qi had no choice but to restrain his strength and evade. He positioned his fist in front of him.

Sparks flew when the scythe came into contact with his fist.

He was sent flying by the blow and slammed into the wall.

Nevertheless, such injuries couldn’t inflict any lasting damage on him. The robust physique of the Demon Dragon could swiftly mend the internal injuries resulting from the collision in the blink of an eye.

At this moment, he got up and jumped, dodging another slash that approached.

After dodging the attack, he stood up.

Looking at the blue-skinned assassin slowly turning around, Feng Qi cursed inwardly.

If he possessed the abilities from the main timeline, the blue-skinned assassin in front of him wouldn’t be of any concern to him at all. With a single glance, he could easily beat it up.

Especially after activating the Blood Source form, not even a hundred slashes from the blue-skinned assassin would harm him.

However, he did not have such combat strength now.

Looking at the approaching blue-skinned assassin, Feng Qi let out a ferocious roar. Then, he took a step forward and swung his fist.

Seeing this, the blue-skinned assassin immediately slowed down and became vigilant.

Taking advantage of this chance, Feng Qi decisively turned around and pounced towards the door.

Using all his strength, he smashed open the special metal door and ran to the core area.

“Help!”

The room had excellent soundproofing, preventing the sounds of the internal struggle from being heard by the outside world.

At this moment, Feng Qi abruptly burst out. The researchers standing in the core area promptly grasped that something unexpected had occurred.

Hence, they decisively pressed the “Help” button.

The security guards outside the core area received the message immediately. They decisively opened the special metal door of the core area and ran inside.

Then, they saw the blue-skinned assassin chasing after Feng Qi. Without hesitation, they attacked the blue-skinned assassin.

Looking at the blue-skinned assassin who was surrounded by security guards, Feng Qi was calm.

These security guards and the researchers who were conducting research were controlled by the Night Shadow Race manipulated by the owner of the fog. Therefore, he was not worried that something would go wrong.

Even if they were not controlled, it would not be a problem for them to witness the blue-skinned assassin.

However, just as they were about to attack, an unexpected scene happened. The blue-skinned assassin, who was surrounded, suddenly began to blur, and the surrounding space distorted.

Under everyone’s gaze, the blue-skinned assassin suddenly vanished.

Seeing this scene, Feng Qi was anxious.

This was the first time he had encountered a blue-skinned assassin who had mastered the spatial jump ability.

Thinking of this, he quickly went to the control panel in the center of the core area.

“Check the surveillance cameras,” he said in a low voice as he looked at the staff sitting in front of the control panel.

Upon hearing his order, the staff member did not hesitate and decisively pulled up the recent surveillance cameras.

Just as he had expected.

This blue-skinned assassin did not exist in the surveillance cameras.

This made him fall into deep thought.

Although they had come into contact many times, he had yet to find any information about the blue-skinned assassin.

After taking control of the Tiger Soul Research Institute, the owner of the fog had also launched an investigation in this area.

It only found many records of the appearance of the blue-skinned assassin, but it had no clue about the secret behind it.

After experiencing so many timelines, Feng Qi only knew a little about the rules of the blue-skinned assassin.

1. The blue-skinned assassin was not an elemental life form. It had a body of flesh and blood, but there were no organs in its body. Upon death, it would turn into energy and dissipate.
2. The blue-skinned assassin seemed to be constantly receiving signals from the outside world. It might be a special life form controlled by an external force.
3. The blue-skinned assassin was not a robot. It possessed emotions, experiencing pain and surprise, but it harbored no fear of death.
4. The timing of the blue-skinned assassin’s appearance was different in every timeline.
5. The number of blue-skinned assassins was uncertain. As time passed, their strength showed a steady increase.
Based on these factors, the blue-skinned assassin resembled a game monster. As the protagonist’s strength or progress advanced, the monster’s strength also heightened.

However, his understanding of such special life forms was still a mystery. He only knew that this group of blue-skinned creatures was collecting miracle items all over the world.

The miracle blood stone controlled by the owner of the fog was retrieved from the injured blue-skinned assassin by a combat team in the Former Days Eastern Supply Area.

He had reason to believe that the creature behind the blue-skinned assassin, or the race of the blue-skinned assassin, had obtained several miracle items. Therefore, the potential power of this faction was extremely strong.

The blue-skinned assassin was a potentially formidable adversary that he had not yet fully understood. They would pose a hindrance on the path of human growth.

Thinking of this, he could not help but frown.

As a sacrifice timeline, the most important mission was to investigate more information for the main timeline.

At the very least, he needed to ensure that the main timeline comprehended who the adversary was..
