The Return Of The God Level Assassin

”TO those participating in the Rookie Carnival, please proceed forward. And to those who are planning to watch the preliminary and already had a ticket, please go to the right,” a female NPC said.

Luo Yan looked at both direction that the NPC mentioned. Going forward, there were already lines of people in front of a very huge ship. It was designed not like a modern ship but like a galleon. There was no doubt that this was the ship that would bring them to the venue of the prelims.

On the right, there was a teleportation portal. He saw a player entering the portal disappearing, most likely teleporting to the venue of the prelims. Luo Yan guessed that this portal would automatically detect the presence of the prelimsʼ ticket in the playerʼs Items Tab. If not, then wouldnʼt that mean that those who didnʼt have tickets could just go directly to the venue using the portal? How could the game developers do something so careless?

”I guess weʼll have to separate here,” Luo Yan started.

”Yan Yan, good luck!” Yu Jiao said. Then, as if remembering that Luo Jin would also participate in the prelims. ”Ahm, good luck to you too, Luo Jin.”

Luo Yan almost chuckled at Yu Jiaʼs obvious gaffe. ”Thank you, Jiao Jiao.”

Luo Jin only nodded and didnʼt mind that the other obviously forgotten him.

Although Luo Ren was also quite amused by Yu Jiao, he still faced his brothers. ”You two, try your best not to get hurt, okay? And,” he put one hand on Luo Yanʼs shoulder and the other on Luo Jinʼs head (because his avatar was too short). ”Well, I guess, win.”

”Brother, donʼt you think your words are putting too much pressure on us?” Luo Jin said, removing his brotherʼs paw on his hair.

”What, is Xiao Jin pressured, then?” Luo Ren asked, raising one of his brows.

He actually wasnʼt planning to say that. But, considering his brothersʼ characters, if he said something along the lines of ʼitʼs okay even if you donʼt winʼ, he was sure these two would definitely not like that. And based on their expression right now, he definitely did choose right.

Luo Jin scoffed. ”How could that be possible? Weʼll definitely win.”

”I second that,” Luo Yan quickly followed with a grin.

”Itʼs good to be confident,” Bai Ze said, nodding his head in appreciation of his cousinsʼ confidence. ”Iʼm sure the two of you will do great.”

”Make sure to watch out for any sneak attacks,” Su Yuqi reminded. Then she turned to Luo Jin. ”And you, try not to lose your temper.”

The little gnomeʼs face suddenly turned red. ”Who—” he stopped before he said anything stupid. Like ʼyour whole family lose their temperʼ for example. That would definitely be too embarrassing. ”Thank you. I- Iʼll try my best not to lose my temper.”

Luo Ren looked interestingly at the two ʼchildrenʼ. He remembered how Luo Yan teased their youngest about this Su Yuqi sometimes. And it seemed that this girl actually had some understanding of Luo Jin. In terms of chasing people, maybe he had more hope than him – he thought while giving the handsome ʼguyʼ beside him a glance.

[Mashter, are you going to leave Eclipse here now?] – Eclipse asked, sounding very said as if he was about to be abandoned.

[Yes. Iʼll leave you with your favorite Captain.] – Luo Yan said.

Then the whole face of the little fox suddenly brightened. [Then Eclipse will wait with Captain and we will watch as you win!]

Eclipse joyfully jumped from his shoulder to Shen Ji Yunʼs arms. The other easily managed to catch the little fox. Maybe because he had done it a lot of times already.

Luo Yan stared at this scene and just shook his head helplessly. At this point, he was already used to Eclipseʼs favorability towards Shen Ji Yun.

”Brother Ji Yun, can I temporarily leave Eclipse to you?” he asked.

”Of course,” Shen Ji Yun answered. He stared at Luo Yan. He was actually waiting for a chance to speak. But the other kept on getting ahead of him. Now, Eclipse had finally given him his chance to say what he wanted. Really, what a good fox. ”Yan Yan, Iʼll be cheering on you. You will definitely win.”

He actually wanted to say more. But he felt like this was enough to convey his feelings.

And he was right. That was enough for Luo Yan to feel his sincerity and his belief that he would win.

”Thank you, Brother Ji Yun,” he said, an uncontrollable smile appearing on his face.

[Yes, Captain is right!] – Eclipse didnʼt forget to agree to his favorite captain.

Luo Yan rubbed the little foxʼs fluffy head.

And then he and Luo Jin walked towards the direction of the huge galleon.

After lining up for 15 minutes, the Luo brothers finally were able to go up the ship. Luo Yan actually thought that it would be much longer before they could even get on the ship. But he saw how strict the NPCs in charged were. Thatʼs probably why everything moved in a very orderly manner.

The two of them picked a spot to stand on the deck. A spot where there was nothing hindering their view of the ocean.

”Why do we have to get on this ship instead of just using a teleportation portal like the audience?” Luo Jin said.

”For the fanfare, I guess. I heard this whole thing will be broadcasted live. Maybe the broadcast would begin with the participants getting on this ship,” Luo Yan answered.

Itʼs really hard to tell, considering how there werenʼt any cameras floating around them right now. But this was a holographic world. Everything could be recorded one way or the other.

”What could they see while were on this ship anyway?” Luo Jin said with a scoff.

”Maybe someone would pick a fight with someone. I think that would be interesting if itʼs caught in the camera.”

Luo Yan just finished saying that when a voice suddenly spoke behind them.

”Are you the one they called ʼNoctisʼ?”

Luo Yan turned around and saw a male elf. Not just an ordinary elf but an elf with long black hair, a pair of blue-black eyes, and grayish-blue skin.

And his expression was not very friendly.
