Chapter 1000...

  King Ning!

  In a dark alley, shadows shrouded his entire body.

  He sat leisurely with his back against the wall, his left hand on his bent knee, his head thrown back, gazing up at the pitch-black night sky.

  Those glasses, in such a dark corner, refracted black light, like thick ink.

  His entire body merged into the darkness, as if he himself was a cloud of black smoke.

  "Hah! The special skill of 'Black Shadow' is really something, it's almost completely merged with the darkness! This skill was practically tailor-made for me. This place... isn't so bad after all."

  Nobody knows that Wang Ning has two special skills.

  One was the "Low-key King" that he had spoken of. The other, was the "Dark Shadow" that he was now displaying. Effect: Blend into dark environments, reduce presence to the lowest! Unless perception exceeds his by more than double, it is impossible to perceive his existence.

  At this time, a fireball burst out of the alley again, and a car exploded, instantly illuminating the entire street!

  Wang Ning's figure flashed in the firelight and then merged into the darkness. All that could be heard was his faint laughter, "Forget it. After all, you're just a group of high school students. I didn't expect you to solve those small fries... Li Shuangyu, surprisingly, as the young master of the Li family, your performance is so disappointing. Zeng Fei... this kid is not bad, his talent for shooting opened my eyes wide. I wonder what relationship he has with 'Ghost Bullet' Zeng Yidong... As for Yin Kuang... except that his luck is slightly better and his intelligence exceeds mine by 3 points, the rest seems to be negligible. And as for that idiot woman... forget it..."

  Listening to the sound of gunfire, flames burning, and wind outside the alley, Wang Ning gave his evaluation with a playful tone on his face, "Overall evaluation: This is a team with not bad potential. If possible, it's best to get Li Shuangmu and Zeng Fei over. Yin Kuang... can be or cannot be. As for Qian Qianqian, I estimate she has fallen in love with Li Shuangmu... how laughable. Falling in love with him means your tragedy is doomed."

  "Li Shuang's comprehensive strength, combined with Zeng Fei's sniping talent, and my assassination skills... perhaps, by bringing them two to block in front of me, I should be able to barely stand in this mysterious 'university'. Wang Ning said in a low tone, "It's really exciting. I've long been tired of that boring life of killing people, collecting money, spending money, and then killing again, collecting money again... Here, it seems not only can we kill freely, but also constantly exchange various abilities to enhance our strength... Such a good thing, how can I not be eagerly anticipating?"

  Only to see Wang Ning's hand flip, a black dagger appeared in his hand, and it rotated in his hand, wandering between his fingers, as if it was not a metal, but a soft spirit snake. "It's almost time for me to make my move. Otherwise, I'm afraid it will lead to their dissatisfaction. The relationship that has just been established will be declared broken, which is not beautiful. Although we can't keep all of them, keeping one or two of them won't make them say anything."

  After finishing speaking, Wang Ning stood up and moved his limbs in the darkness, "It's been a while since I've taken action, I don't know if my skills have regressed or not. You guys come try your hand."

  The next second, the dark alley fell into silence, with shadows as black as ink.

  Suddenly, another loud explosion sounded.

  It seems that someone has thrown out another hand grenade. Moreover, the position of this hand grenade explosion is very clever, falling in the middle of several cars, and the fierce flames and instantaneous burst of energy have triggered the explosion of several cars.

  A brilliant ball of fire rose in the neighborhood, illuminating half the sky. The echoes after the explosion were seen swirling and fluttering between the buildings on both sides, with scorching flames sweeping across a large area.

  In the leaping flames, a slender figure flashed by...

  "Blue Whale...... how are you?"

  Although the grenade did not land in the shooter's seat and Blue Whale's hiding position, the shockwave from the explosion still affected them, and the fierce heat made it hard for them to open their eyes. Blue Whale was even more miserable, directly pushed away by the shockwave and heavily collided with the door of a nearby car.

  "I won't die! Don't mind me, take this chance... go settle that little brat!" Blue Whale coughed a few times and spat out a mouthful of blood.

  "Sagittarius's eyes narrowed, 'Watch out for that sniper!'"

  After finishing speaking, he threw away the gun in his hand, pulled out the military knife tied to his leg, and like a cheetah that had started a charge, shuttled through the gaps between the cars, disappearing from Blue Whale's line of sight.

  The blue whale was breathing in hot air with its huge mouth and coughing constantly.

  He saw him slowly and laboriously inserting his hand into the back of his waist, and he didn't know what he was doing. His face suddenly twisted together. The next moment, he took it out from behind his waist.

  The mouth that had already been stained red with blood was tightly grasping a piece of bloody glass.

  It turned out that in the explosion just now, a piece of shattered glass was inserted into his lower back, straight into his internal organs.

  "Unbelievable... such bad luck. Cough, cough... *cough*!" Blue Whale let out a bitter smile, "Is this considered punishment for my lack of faith?"

  The blue whale loosened its right hand and the glass shards fell to the ground.

  Then, he was able to move his left hand and surprisingly pulled out a roll of white paper towels, wiping clean the right hand that was full of fresh blood. Those eyes that had already turned dull and lifeless suddenly shone with an eerie light. On his pale face due to blood loss, a flush of red actually rose up.

  Backlight!

  The blue whale lifted up that clean hand that had been wiped, and with difficulty stretched into his bosom, and from inside pulled out a photo.

  The majestic Great Wall, the lush big trees, the crowded tourists, a long-haired foreign young man, a short-haired and elegant Chinese girl... Their smiles are so radiant, warm.

  On this ruthless and cruel mercenary's face, a hint of tenderness and nostalgia suddenly appeared.

  "The Great Wall of China... how beautiful it is."

  "Since you're so eager to see our Chinese Great Wall, I don't mind giving you a free ride."

  A cold voice, tone devoid of emotion.

  Wang Ning strolled out of the darkness with a carefree air.

  In his hand, he grasped a jet-black dagger.

  The blue whale showed no surprise, the long face still hung with a smile, as if waiting for him was not an endless dark death, but a grand feast. "You will never understand..."

  The blue whale uses authentic and pure Beijing dialect.

  A glimmer of unusual color flashed in Wang Ning's eyes, apparently this person had discovered his existence long ago. However, he soon let go, what if he was discovered anyway?

  "What's the need for me to understand?" Wang Ning said with a playful smile.

  "People are real because of their faith. Those without faith are pitiful." The blue whale's eyes gazed deeply at the photo, focusing on the smile of the short-haired girl in it, "I don't believe in religion, I don't believe in God, but I believe in love... Although I'm destined to be unable to be with her, just looking at her smile makes me feel that my existence is real. And you? The boy from China... No, the killer from China!"

  Wang Ning sneered, "Your nonsense is really plentiful."

  "So you're pathetic."

  Wang Ning's eyes, hidden behind his glasses, rose with a surge of anger, his thin lips curling up coldly. "I'm standing, while you're lying down. The pathetic one is you, not me."

  The blue whale looked at him coldly and said, "Let's get started... I'm tired too."

  Wang Ning's cold smile froze, his smooth forehead involuntarily furrowed, "As you wish."

  A dark light flashed across the blue whale's throat, ending the life of this " elite mercenary".

  "Hint: You dealt a fatal blow to Blue Whale, the elite mercenary!"

  "Hint: You killed 'Elite Mercenary' Blue Whale, reward 100 learning points."

  However, Wang Ning's furrowed brow furrowed even deeper.

  There's no such pleasure! No longer the thrill of ending others' lives, and even, Wang Ning inexplicably felt a thread of disgust and intolerance in his heart.

  Those calm and peaceful eyes, those liberated eyes, made Wang Ning extremely uncomfortable!

  "Never mind, why bother about a dead person."

  Wang Ning bent down and pinched the photo in Lan Jing's hand, pulled it out with a bit of force, but it didn't come out. He used more strength to pull again, and finally managed to pull the photo out of Lan Jing's hand.

  "Hint: You have obtained the special item 'Photo of Memories'."

  "Photograph of thoughts: Elite mercenary Blue Whale and Chinese girl's photo together. Dedicated to Blue Whale's purest and most selfless love."

  "Hint: This item can be equipped."

  "Condition: Only those with love in their hearts can equip this."

  "Effect: ????"

  "Loving someone doesn't necessarily mean you get something in return, as long as the person you love is doing well."

  Wang Ning's face turned somewhat strange, then tried to equip.

  "Hint: You cannot equip this item."

  "Hmph!" Wang Ning snorted, casually tossing that "photo of longing" into the flames on one side.

  The smile of the blue whale and the Chinese girl ultimately turned into nothingness in the flames.
