The Return of the God Level Assassin [BL]

THE kraken bombarded the ship with its tentacles.  The strong attack that came one after another chipped away on the ship little by little.  It was to the point that the players inside the ship no longer had a place to hide and was forced to face the huge terrifying monster that was threatening to enjoy the ship.

Everyone had different reactions regarding the continuous attack of the kraken.  There were some who were scared to the point that a number purposely logged out of the game, thus being disqualified automatically.  There was a group who, although not scared, chose to just observe how things went first.  And of course, the players who were ready and gearing up to fight the kraken.

They knew that if they didn't defeat this monster, they would definitely not have the chance to go to their destination.  Because this ship would be destroyed before that could happen.  So, the best course of action right now was for everyone to attack the kraken. 

But no one dared to move first.  Because everyone was worried that they would just end up as kraken fodder if they acted too heroic. 

While everyone was contemplating, one of the kraken's tentacles was about to strike the ship once again.  Everyone was preparing for the impact.  But before the tentacle landed, a golden stream suddenly shot out from the ship and directly met the incoming tentacle. 

Before anyone could react, they saw the tentacle being sliced.  The cut tentacle fell on the ocean and made a big splash.  The kraken howled in pain.  Everyone was shocked at this sudden turn of events.  More so when they saw that golden stream landed on the ship and saw that it was actually a player.

He had long golden hair that was tied in a high ponytail.  His hair was not the same gold color as those from the Angel race.  Theirs paled in comparison to that of the male player.  Because his hair had such a pure golden sheen to it.  Almost like some kind of shining gold bar.

He was tall and had a very impressive build.  It was not that big that he would look like some kind of body builder, but it was enough to see that he had a good muscle balance.  He was holding a long sword that he obviously used to slice the tentacle.  They could still see a slight golden sheen covering it.

But the most noticeable out of all was his pair of beast-like golden eyes. 

"Wake up, all of you!" he said in a very commanding voice.  "This is no time to think of your own agendas!  Stop thinking for once about the rewards that you might or might not get.  Defeating that monster over there should be everyone's objective.  If you keep calculating your actions based on gains and loses, then all of you are nothing but hopeless losers."  He looked coldly at everyone with those golden beast-like eyes.  "Let me tell you this, even without that reward, I will pass this preliminary and go to the final tournament.  Why?  Because I'm strong.  That's all there is to it."

Everyone was almost speechless.  They were not sure if it was because they were just told that they were hopeless losers or because of that unwavering confidence.

"Nice speech.  Mind if we join your attack?" suddenly said by a voice from above.

Then two figures suddenly jumped from above.  One was an elf with long white hair and the other was a black-haired gnome.  It was the Luo brothers.

When Luo Yan saw that golden stream earlier, he told Luo Jin that it's probably the time for them to join the fight.  He just had a feeling that the player who didn't hesitate to jump and face that kraken would have enough authority in him to lead these players.

What he didn't expect was that this guy's way of motivating people was by antagonizing them.  But he must say, he liked this reverse psychology method.  Because most of the points the guy said was right.  These people were so concerned about the rewards that that's all they could think about.  For all they know, this was probably just another method of the game devs to pit them.

The guy with golden beast-like eyes – Xia Lei – only faintly glanced at the two.  If he remembered correctly, this white-haired elf was Noctis.  He only knew about him because his sister couldn't stop talking about the other.  She even made him the subject of her fan-arts, pairing him with another guy.  Now he felt a bit guilty looking at the guy knowing that her sister made him a part of her filthy imagination.

But this was not the time to feel guilty about something he did not do.  Especially after that speech he just gave. 

"I'll be attacking that kraken head on.  Anyone is free to do whatever."

After he said that, he jumped up and then he was suddenly surrounded by golden smoke.  The moment the smoke dissipated, a huge Western gold dragon appeared in front of everyone. 

Xia Lei, in the form of golden dragon, didn't hesitate to rush towards the kraken.  Despite the still obvious difference in size between his dragon form and the kraken, he didn't have any fear.  After all, no matter how real it looked, everything here was still fake.   

He opened his large maw and bit on the kraken. 

This action seemed to irritate the kraken.  Its tentacles not only attacked the dragon biting it, the rest of the tentacles struck the ship.

Luo Yan whistled when he saw the male player transforming into a golden dragon.  This was the second time he had seen a Legendary race transformed into their beast form.

Based on the gasps he was hearing from behind, the rest of the players were shocked by what they saw.  No wonder he was so confident that he could go to the final tournament. 

But Luo Yan didn't have time to admire such a view because the tentacles of the kraken were about to struck the ship again. 

"Ah Jin, let's go and cut some tentacles," he said, grinning at his younger brother while taking out both his daggers.

Luo Jin only took out both his guns as answer.

And the brothers jumped up towards one of the incoming tentacles.
