You're an assassin, why do you focus on ranged?

Shadow?

Elna and Hans looked at each other, and both saw confusion in each other's eyes.

I haven't heard of this name.

Hans started chatting familiarly: "So it's the traveler Shadow. I've heard of your name for a long time. Today I'm lucky to meet you. You are indeed a handsome man. By the way, where did Brother Shadow make a living before? Maybe I've been there."

Qin Chuan knew that Hans was testing him, but he had already prepared his words and replied without hesitation: "I come from the distant city of Beli."

Elna and Hans were confused again.

I haven't heard of this city either.

Qin Chuan secretly saw it and felt a little regretful.

In fact, he brought up the name of Shadow just to see if there was any information circulating within the Night Watch.

After all, Qin Chuan used the name of Shadow in the trial mirror.

If the Night Watch was really an organization founded by Alessa, there should be some words passed down.

But judging from the expressions of Elna and Hans, they didn't know the name.

This includes Beli City.

This city, located outside the Evernight Continent, has not had any relevant information passed down.

This made Qin Chuan a little curious.

Was it because of the long time that the information was lost, or was it deliberately hidden?

This possibility is actually very high.

First of all, the name of Shadow is related to Alessa. As the Lady of the Night, a god-level existence, ordinary people will definitely not comment too much, and even keep it a secret and don't even talk about it.

In this case, it is unlikely that the name Shadow will be passed down.

As for Beli City, it is easier to understand.

It is a city outside the Evernight Continent. If more people know about it, there will always be people who want to know what the outside world is like, which is not conducive to stability.

When Alessa left with her followers, it was mainly because she was tired of the endless war and didn't want to see any more unnecessary sacrifices. It is reasonable for her to take the initiative to destroy all the information about Beli City.

If that were the case, things would be a bit difficult to handle.

Qin Chuan came to the Evernight Continent this time not only for career advancement and breakthrough in the Holy Domain, but also to unravel the lost history that had been sealed for thousands of years. If he could not find a breakthrough, it would inevitably take more time.

If it was normal, it would not matter. At most, he would spend more time and treat it as a cross-map tour.

But now that the gods are about to descend, time waits for no one, and Qin Chuan does not have so much free time to squander.

As for Elna and Hans pretending not to know, the possibility is very low. With Qin Chuan's observation ability, he can tell at a glance whether they are lying or not.

Moreover, his false speech skill has evolved to the Holy Domain level, and he has a natural ability to discern lies.

So the confusion in the eyes of the two is real, they really don't know.

Qin Chuan immediately made adjustments and prepared to go to the Night Watch branch first to find an opportunity to talk to the branch leader there to see if he can get more information.

If it doesn't work, go to the Night Watch headquarters.

If the headquarters does not have relevant information, Qin Chuan can only fly around the world.

There is another thing that makes Qin Chuan more headache.

After arriving at the Evernight Continent, his career advancement mission had no movement, no updates, and no completion. It was just frozen, a bit awkward.

Qin Chuan estimated that he had to find some key information to update the mission and complete the career advancement.

To be honest, Qin Chuan had no idea about how to complete the fourth career advancement of the Shadow Assassin.

I had never heard of this mission in my previous life.

"I can only take it one step at a time."

Qin Chuan said in his heart.

However, he had a hunch that the breakthrough should be on the Night Watcher's side.

...

Everyone continued on their way.

During this period, Hans asked a few more indirect questions, trying to find out Qin Chuan's origins. Qin Chuan's answer was naturally flawless.

This made Hans more worried.

Although the previous battle with the alien beast was only a glimpse, it can be seen that the strength of this traveler who called himself Shadow should not be underestimated.

Bringing him back to the branch, I don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse.

But on second thought, they have the invincible Red Comet Elna, even if this shadow has some strength, it will definitely not be Elna's opponent.

And there are other fighters in the branch, can't everyone subdue one person together?

Thinking of this, Hans walked stiffly.

Elna was not so relaxed, she was wary of this shadow who claimed to be passing by by chance.

These days, strange beasts are rampant, and ordinary people can't even hide in the house, so how can they have the mood to travel.

And how could someone who has the ability to cross the wilderness without fear of strange beasts be forced to sweat profusely by a few strange beasts just now?

There is definitely something strange here.

Elna has reason to believe that this shadow has other intentions.

But what is the other party's purpose, we need to continue to observe.

It can be said that this fourThe team had eight hundred people, but only the newcomer, Ge En, still had a confused expression, and followed the team forward stupidly.

…

As he moved forward, Qin Chuan also secretly observed the surrounding environment.

It was not optimistic.

There were ruins everywhere, covered with traces of battle, and judging from the traces, the battle had been going on for quite a while.

The key point was that he had not seen even half a living person along the way.

But he had not seen any strange beasts either.

The entire Evernight Continent gave Qin Chuan a feeling of desolation and silence, as if the world was about to end, as if there were only four of them left in the world.

If he had not been worried about being exposed, Qin Chuan would have definitely asked about the situation.

Where had all the people gone?

If he could not see any people, at least some wild animals would have been there.

But there were still none.

Qin Chuan could not help but think of his previous life, when the God's Descent stage was at the end and humans were preparing for the final desperate struggle, it was almost the same situation.

The situation on the Evernight Continent did not seem as optimistic as imagined.

After walking for more than ten minutes, Elna slowed down and said, "We are almost there."

Then she looked at Qin Chuan and said, "Due to the existence of strange beasts, strict disinfection and inspection are required to enter the branch. I hope Mr. Shadow doesn't mind."

Qin Chuan waved his hand, "It's okay."

Hans didn't say anything, but his hand was already on the handle of the knife without leaving any trace.

If this shadow is eroded by strange beasts, don't blame him for ignoring the grace of saving his life.

...

After walking a distance, several people stopped in front of a ruin.

Most people might be surprised, but Qin Chuan heard the sound of human activities underground.

It is obvious that the Night Watch branch is built under the ruins.

In addition, after they stepped into this area, several guns were pointed at him in secret, and they would open fire as long as there was any movement.

Qin Chuan narrowed his eyes slightly, pointed out the locations of several secret sentries, and said in a strong tone, "Is this your way of hospitality?"

Clang.

The spear in Elna's hand flashed, and she said calmly: "Mr. Shadow, your origins are a little unclear. We are also for safety reasons. I hope you can forgive me. As long as it is confirmed that you are a human being and have not been contaminated by alien beasts, I will apologize to you for the offense now."
