CHAPTER 127: CHAPTER 127, FIGHTING AGAINST ULTRA-DISTANT PROFESSION_1

Jiang Chen looked down at the assassin on the ground and asked, "Who sent you to assassinate me?"

"Kid, you killed someone from the Three Union Corps. You’re as good as dead."

"Quite spirited. I like people with spirit the most."

SWOOSH.

Several beams of Sword Qi pierced the assassin’s thighs, causing him excruciating pain as blood flowed out from under him.

Jiang Chen said, "Little Na, stop his bleeding. Don’t let him die. I still have questions for him!"

"Oh."

A flash of light struck the assassin, instantly stopping the bleeding.

Jiang Chen continued, "Why assassinate me?"

"In the Alliance competition, you made our Alliance lose face, so you must die. Do you understand now?"

"So the people who closed the passages were also from the Three Union Corps?"

"Correct. It wasn’t just the Three Union Corps but also the Three Union Corps and people from other legions. You’re finished! You won’t make it out of the Dark Lands."

"I have no more questions. I hope you have a Resurrection Scroll, but even if you do, it’s useless. There’s no resurrection point here. Goodbye."

A beam of Sword Qi pierced the Ninja’s throat. The Ninja stared wide-eyed at Jiang Chen and died within moments.

Equipment also burst forth from his body.

Jiang Chen said, "The equipment from these five looks pretty good."

"Yeah, it could sell for quite a bit of money!"

Jiang Chen smiled. "Who knows? We might make a killing in the Sakura Alliance!"

Jiang Chen noticed several figures not far away. Seeing the assassination fail, they instantly fled the battlefield. Jiang Chen didn’t go after them; these small fries weren’t worth the chase.

He waited for the main forces to arrive.

「At this moment.」

The news of the five assassins’ deaths quickly spread back to the Three Union Corps and the Three Union Corps.

"What do we do now? He killed five of our people."

"This kid’s Offensive Power is indeed strong. He’s not just a Swordsman; we need to use a Super Long-Range Attack Class to kill him instantly."

"Right, this is the only way to kill him for good."

"What are we waiting for? Our Legion has many from the Super Long-Range Attack Class."

"Let’s take action and not let this kid leave the Sakura Alliance."

After some discussion, the Legion decided to send out the Super Long-Range Attack Class to deal with Jiang Chen. They still had some understanding of him. For example, they understood Jiang Chen’s Offensive Power, attack range, attack speed, and attack methods, and they prepared strategies to kill him accordingly.

And the Super Long-Range Attack Class was Jiang Chen’s Krypton Star.

The original plan was to send Ninjas to assassinate Jiang Chen, but since that path wasn’t viable, they had to take another approach.

Soon, the Dragon Knight team was fully assembled.

On the Dragon Knights, there were also members of the Super Long-Range Attack Class, specifically the Divine Gunman Class.

Sharpshooters, belonging to the Super Long-Range Attack Class, could attack from a hundred meters away. Some even had an attack range exceeding two hundred meters, though accuracy greatly decreased for attacks beyond that distance.

Ten Dragon Knights rapidly entered the Dark Zone and performed a Sky Jump.

Onlookers gazed up at the ten Giant Dragons.

"What’s going on?"

"They’re preparing to take action, using Dragon Knights against Jiang Chen."

"Jiang Chen is too powerful. Only with Super Long-ranged Attacks can we kill him completely."

"That’s not necessarily true. Don’t forget, that Swordsman can also use a Magician’s Teleport."

"That’s Yōsuke Mizujin from the Three Union Corps, an SS Class Sharpshooter and a level 89 expert."

"And Yūto Kusabu from the Three Union Corps, a level 88 powerhouse. Both are extremely formidable."

"This time, Jiang Chen is surely dead."

Yōsuke Mizujin stood on his dragon’s back and said, "Yūto Kusabu, I hear the enemy has strong Offensive Power, capable of both close and long-range combat."

Yūto Kusabu replied, "Don’t worry. We’re all wearing level 80 equipment. He’s just a level 30 Swordsman. Facing him with such a strong lineup is something to be proud of."

Yōsuke Mizujin nodded. "This man must die. We cannot let him return to the Dragon Zone Union."

"Of course. Daring to kill a Ninja in our territory means no one can save him. I won’t give him a chance."

Yōsuke Mizujin was the deputy commander of the Three Union Corps and a Sharpshooter of the Divine Gunman Class. He possessed a rare Talent for super long-distance aiming and was a Light Speed Gunner within the Divine Gunman Class.

Yūto Kusabu was similar, also a Sharpshooter of the Divine Gunman Class.

The remaining eight were also from the Super Long-Range Attack Class.

With ten powerhouses joining forces, they were determined to eliminate Jiang Chen in the Dark Zone.

The ten flew high into the sky and easily spotted Jiang Chen.

At that moment, Jiang Chen and Angelina were grinding monsters.

Sensing danger from above, Jiang Chen looked up. He saw ten Dragon Knights soaring in the sky and understood they were there for him.

They look like Sharpshooters, preparing for a Super Long-ranged Attack.

Jiang Chen surveyed his surroundings.

He saw a forest not far off.

Jiang Chen said, "Little Na, let’s take cover in the forest. This time, I’ll take them all down myself."

Angelina looked at the dark shapes in the sky.

She nodded. "Okay."

The two headed for the forest.

Yōsuke Mizujin announced, "I’ve spotted them! Follow me."

The other nine Dragon Knights followed Yōsuke Mizujin’s dragon, watching as he flew toward the forest.

"Damn it! This guy is cunning; he’s hiding in the forest."

"What do we do? Even though we’re on dragonback, we can’t spot Jiang Chen. That kid definitely won’t come out."

"Circle in the air and find him! The moment you spot him, attack immediately!"

"Right! We don’t believe he won’t come out."

Jiang Chen and Angelina entered the forest.

Jiang Chen had anticipated they would attack from dragonback; it was their only real chance. Super Long-ranged Attacks were indeed formidable, but their accuracy decreased with distance, eventually making it impossible to aim effectively. Moreover, with the forest providing cover, the Dragon Knights would be at an even greater disadvantage.

Trying to find one person in a dense forest while hovering a hundred meters in the air was like searching for a specific grain of sand in a desert.

Jiang Chen scanned his surroundings. Sensing no immediate danger, he then looked up at the sky.

Jiang Chen laughed. "A hundred meters away, huh? It seems you know me well! So, let’s see who can last longer."

What did a hundred meters signify? It was like standing atop a 33-story building. With trees tens of meters tall providing cover, they simply wouldn’t be able to spot him.

Angelina asked, "What do we do?"

"Don’t worry. Find a place to hide. I’m going to hunt them down."

"How will you chase them? They have dragons!"

"I can climb trees."

Angelina exclaimed, "Climb trees?"

Jiang Chen looked at a tall tree. "They should know my attack range is within a hundred meters, so they won’t enter it. This tree is tens of meters high; I can use it for cover."

"Once I climb the tree, they’ll be within my attack range."

The Sakura Alliance held the aerial advantage, while Jiang Chen had the topographical advantage.

For Jiang Chen, this wasn’t a bad situation at all.
