Long Zixuan guessed Chen Ming's identity wrongly, but guessed his strength correctly.

"Just stay here and don't move. I'll be back soon..." Halfway through his words, Chen Ming thought for a moment and realized that being with him was the safest place, so he changed his mind and said, "Forget it, just stay with me!"

The main thing is that he doesn't know the enemy's details. What if he confidently goes to eliminate the invaders, but instead falls into a trap to lure the tiger away from the mountain? Wouldn't that be very embarrassing?

Not only that, showing extraordinary power in front of Long Zixuan can also improve her favorability, killing two birds with one stone.

Chapter 99: Join the game with your own strength!

[Wind Armor], [Watery Sky], [Earth Guardian]...

Chen Ming cast several auxiliary magic spells in succession, some of which were cast on him alone, while others expanded to cover Long Zixuan as well.

Although the magic body protection state can already withstand rifle bullets.

But who would complain about having too much defense?

Long Zixuan stood beside him with great interest, tentatively extending her fingers to poke the aqua-blue and khaki light curtains outside.

Then he asked curiously: "Mr. Chen, is this a magic shield?"

"That's right," Chen Ming nodded. "Let's go and deal with the invaders together."

As he said that, he grabbed Long Zixuan's little hand and walked towards the door.

The moment before opening the door, he thought for a moment, then turned back with some concern and added, "Follow my steps closely, and don't step out of the range of the magic shield!"

"Uh-huh!"

Long Zixuan nodded excitedly, as if she was looking forward to the battle scene that was about to begin.

Seeing this, Chen Ming didn't say much. He put his left hand around Long Zixuan's waist and took out a silenced HK416 rifle that had been materialized in advance from the system space with his right hand.

He strode out of the master bedroom and could see through the lofted living room that the unknown invaders were stealthily ascending the stairs to the second floor.

Each of these invaders was wearing clothes that couldn't be more ordinary. They were dressed like passersby who wouldn't look anything special if thrown into a crowd.

But their tactical movements are very professional. They don't need to speak and can communicate and cooperate with just a few gestures.

Obviously professionally trained.

Chen Ming, whose eyesight was enhanced, also noticed that some of these invaders were white and black.

As we all know, there are no black people in the Chinese army, so these invaders are definitely not official police or troops.

There were only 12 intruders, and it was easy for Chen Ming to kill them. Before walking out of the master bedroom, his only worry was that Long Zixuan had broken the law and the intruders were police officers coming to arrest her.

If this were the case, Chen Ming would naturally not help her deal with the police. Before he could withstand nuclear weapons, he needed to keep a low profile. Moreover, the main world was guarded by the 404 gods, so he definitely couldn't act recklessly, otherwise he would be easily sealed...

At most, he could use [Teleport] to take Long Zixuan back to the basement of his villa and lock her up as a generator girl...

However, since the intruder was not an official patrolman, he posed no threat to Chen Ming.

As long as you kill the opponent, store the body into the system space, and do the subsequent cleanup work, you will be safe.

The noise of Chen Ming and Long Zixuan walking out of the master bedroom was soon discovered by the intruder on the stairs.

Seeing this, the invaders no longer concealed their steps and quickly ran up to the second floor.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa..."

Chen Ming immediately pointed the gun at the enemy and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

With his grip strengthened by magic, it was no problem for him to press the rifle with one hand.

It's just that he didn't practice shooting deliberately - most of his time and energy were spent on training his magic power and recharging his energy.

Therefore, the accuracy of the shooting was not high enough. After firing a volley of bullets, only the two invaders in the front were shot into sieves.

Hearing the sound of silenced gunfire, the remaining invaders hid at the corners of the stairs or behind other shelters.

At the same time, he cursed his employer in his heart: Isn’t it said that China strictly prohibits guns?

They had managed to smuggle in a few small pistols, and thought they could be invincible in their sword-fighting uniforms and easily complete assassination missions, but they didn't expect to be suppressed by firepower as soon as they entered the door.

Seeing that the invaders had retreated and his marksmanship was not very good, Chen Ming simply put away the HK416 rifle and took out an alloy sword from the system space.

Then he took Long Zixuan in his arms and strode forward. Before turning the corner, he stabbed the corner of the wall with a sword, causing the invader who was hiding behind and preparing to shoot to die in regret.

The long sword shrouded in magic power cut through iron like mud, which frightened the other invaders hiding behind the cover. They immediately adjusted their tactics, stopped hiding, and raised their guns to shoot at Chen Ming.

"Bang bang bang..."

Although their pistols were equipped with silencers, the gunshots were still very clear inside the villa.

Unfortunately, the thunder was loud but the rain was light. The whistling bullets caused ripples on the khaki light curtain in front of Chen Ming and Long Zixuan. It couldn't even break through the [Earth Guardian], let alone the [Water Sky Curtain] on the second layer.

After seeing the khaki light curtain, the invaders were all stunned.

"Oh my God! What the hell is that light shield?"

"Holy shit! The electromagnetic shield was just something we used to trick people into doing in the arms race, and China actually developed a finished product?"

"..."

Listening to the bird language spoken by the black and white people not far in front of me.

Chen Ming, whose foreign language test score in college did not even pass level 4, was too lazy to understand what they meant.

With just one sword strike, he beheaded the person, and the whole world suddenly became much quieter.

In the state of enhanced magic power, although it was the first time for Chen Ming to kill someone with his own hands (previously in World No. 1, killings were all done by [Crimson]), apart from some brief discomfort, he quickly adjusted his mentality and was surprisingly calm.

He was wearing several layers of magic shields and was like a tiger among a flock of sheep. He killed most of the invaders in an instant.

The sound of resisting pistols gradually decreased until it finally died down completely.

Chen Ming shook off the bloodstains on the alloy sword in disgust and looked up at the fastest enemy.

The other party had already run to the living room on the first floor of the villa and dropped a tear gas bomb at the stairs.

Tear gas instantly filled the entire staircase, blocking the road and buying time to escape.

【Teleport】!

Chen Ming, holding the beauty in his arms, suddenly appeared in front of the other party and sent her to death with a sword.

However, as the tear gas spread, it was temporarily unavailable to stay inside the villa.

He walked out of the villa and opened the doors and windows for ventilation.

Long Zixuan in his arms watched Chen Ming killing people indiscriminately, just frowning slightly, not paying too much attention to the bloody and violent scene.

Instead, he focused on the various magic spells cast by Chen Ming, his eyes flashing with excitement - magic armor, magic shield, instant teleportation, storage space...

Just what she saw was terrifying enough - Long Zixuan estimated that a firefight at the level of individual weapons could not cause any harm to Chen Ming.

And how much ability is not demonstrated?

The true strength is immeasurable!

As a homegirl who loves reading novels, Long Zixuan immediately imagined countless possibilities and admired Chen Ming even more...

[Ding, Long Zixuan's favorability increased by 5, currently at 75!]

Chen Ming didn't know she was frantically imagining things. He pointed at the corpse in the villa and asked, "We didn't have time just now. Now tell me, what's going on?"

He was sure that he had no enemies in the main world, at least he had not yet provoked any enemies who would send assassins to hunt him down.

So these invaders must have come to assassinate Long Zixuan.

If it was before Long Zixuan died for free, Chen Ming would definitely not bother to ask - there is killing and killing every day in this world, and wars still exist. He has no time to meddle in other people's business.

But since Long Zixuan has given herself to him for free, Chen Ming, as her man, still has to take care of it.

This is also what makes Chen Ming different from a scumbag.

Although he is not a loyal and affectionate good man, while he is unfaithful, he will also be responsible to his woman to the end.

Long Zixuan could sense the concern in his words, and while her heart warmed, she glanced at the tragic scene in the villa and said coldly, "I can probably guess who hired the killer... Mr. Chen, do you want to know my story?"

"I don't want to know..."

"what?"

Long Zixuan pressed her fingertips, stained with red nail polish, against his chest, her mouth open, not knowing what to say.

"Just kidding, tell me."

Chen Ming smiled and said, "If I don't resolve this matter thoroughly, and they send someone to assassinate you next time, then wouldn't it be a waste of my saving you today?"

Long Zixuan's expression froze when she heard this. She couldn't help but glared at him, then continued:

"It's said that dynasties last for centuries, and aristocratic families for millennia. This has been the case since ancient times. And my Long family is one of those prestigious, millennium-old families..."

"Wait! Are there really thousand-year-old families in reality?"

Chen Ming suddenly interrupted, "You're not going to talk about ancient martial arts next, are you? Is modern society so fantastical?"

"No, there are indeed some aristocratic families in China that have been passed down for more than a thousand years, such as the Confucius family, the Zhang family of Tianshi Dao, the Wuyue Qian family, the Wenxi Pei family... These families have far-reaching influence in the fields of politics, economy, culture, and religion, but they do not have extraordinary powers like ancient martial arts!"

Long Zixuan shook her head with regret. "I used to really hope to have ancient martial arts, cultivate internal energy or something to heal my legs, so I could stand up again... But later I verified that it was all fake. Mr. Chen is the only extraordinary person I have ever seen... Oh, right, I should be able to exchange for real martial arts in the main god game!"

"Emm, that's about right. Let's get back to the point. Go on with your story."

Chen Ming directly changed the subject and said that after all, there was no way to learn martial arts in World No. 1. As an honest man, he did not want to lie to his woman.

"Okay, the Long family has been active in the southeast region for at least a thousand years since the end of the Tang Dynasty. The old Longxiang Jewelry Group you know is just the tip of the iceberg of the Long family..."

Long Zixuan nodded and continued, "The current head of the Long family is my great-grandfather. According to the tradition of their older generation, the next head of the family can only be the eldest son, that is, my great-uncle (grandfather's eldest brother). My grandfather was assigned to Zejiang Province to manage the family business..."

"Originally, our branch and the main family lived in peace, and everyone had a bright future ahead of them... But modern technology is advancing at an alarming rate, and it's far harder for the elderly to keep up with the ever-changing pace than it is for the young... As a result, the family business has generally been operating at a loss in recent years..."

"So, my great grandfather plans to skip two generations and pass the position of head of the family directly to a younger person. He will no longer stick to the eldest son, but will instead give the position to the most capable one!"

"I understand. Because you threaten the main line's inheritance rights, you have become a thorn in their side, so they hired a killer to kill you!"

Chen Ming looked down at her increasingly paler face, and suddenly felt that the water droplets trembling on the eyelashes of this rich young lady might not all be raindrops.

As the saying goes, the imperial family is the most ruthless. Although the Long family cannot compare with the ancient royal family, the wealth accumulated by this family for thousands of years is unimaginable for ordinary people!

In order to fight for this wealth, Long Zixuan's relatives have become her biggest enemies!

"That's right, at the beginning of this year, Great Grandfather gave all the younger generations of the Long family a test: acquire gold! Whoever acquires the most gold by the end of the year will inherit the position of Patriarch of the Long family."

"Great! One exam question can simultaneously test various aspects of one's abilities, including finances, connections, and strategy. The winner will definitely be the strongest and the one who best adapts to the times. Crucially, this can also solve the problem of insufficient gold reserves for the Old Longxiang Jewelry Group."

Chen Ming clapped his hands in admiration.

Is this the wisdom of a thousand-year-old family?

No wonder even the rise and fall of the world and wars could not make these families disappear in the long river of history!

But thinking of this, Chen Ming couldn't help but frown: "Since you already knew your great-grandfather's exam questions, why were you so careless and actually sent all the bodyguards away!"

As the saying goes, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall.

It is impossible for someone like Long Zixuan not to understand this principle.

"You can only be a thief for a thousand days, how can you guard against a thief for a thousand days?"

Long Zixuan suddenly chuckled and said, "I saw the assassination request on the dark web in advance, but the defender consumes much more energy than the assassin. The assassin can wait for an opportunity for a long time, while the defender cannot maintain a high level of vigilance continuously. Over time, there will always be a time when he will slack off. So I chose to lure the snake out of its hole and actively send all the bodyguards away to create an assassination opportunity. Otherwise, why would they be willing to show up so soon?"

"So you have included me in your plan..." Chen Ming narrowed his eyes.

"I believe in your strength!"

Long Zixuan did not deny or quibble. She put her arms around Chen Ming's neck and looked him in the eye.

"You've managed to survive in the God Game and learn healing magic in just a few days. Your strength is definitely enough to deal with assassins in the real world... And I'm right here. If you really encounter irresistible danger, I will die with you!"

Okay, okay, if you put yourself in the game, you’ll win half the battle. Is that the way to play it?

Chen Ming was almost laughing out of anger, "NND, you want to play with me, right? Then I'm going to have some fun!"

As he said that, he turned into a detective on the spot, arrested the two ringleaders of the trouble, and investigated further!

Just when the truth was about to come out.

"Mr. Chen... Mr. Chen, let's explore the area ahead later..."

Long Zixuan begged for mercy in a low voice.

Chen Ming suddenly came to his senses. Although the villa had a wall, it was indeed inappropriate to do this under the eaves at the door.

So he hit the other person's drum a few times as a punishment, and then let her go.
