Iron Sword Mad Lion was dead just like that.
This result was unexpected by everyone.
From the moment Shi Feng pulled out his sword and stabbed Iron Sword Mad Lion's heart, to the moment Iron Sword Mad Lion died, everyone saw Shi Feng's every move clearly. However, one thing puzzled everyone: Shi Feng's sword was not fast. In their view, even they could have dodged that strike, so how could the expert Iron Sword Mad Lion not dodge it?
He didn't even have the strength to counterattack.
Could it be that Iron Sword Mad Lion was just a paper tiger, a mere pretender?
Everyone immediately rejected this foolish thought.
Iron Sword Mad Lion's equipment was not fake, and his level 5 status was not fake. He was undoubtedly a genuine expert. However, an expert wearing so much bronze equipment, with defense and health far exceeding those of ordinary players, was killed in just a few moves, which was too unbelievable.
Even if ordinary players attacked Iron Sword Mad Lion crazily, it would take a while to take him down, but Shi Feng had resolved him in just two moves.
How terrifying must the attack power be to achieve this?
Thinking of this, everyone was stunned.
The smiling Shi Feng in front of them was not some wealthy sheep, but a devil in a mask, grinning at them. They had been completely unaware, and a chill ran through their bodies, making them shiver. They dared not look at the smiling Shi Feng anymore.
"You... You're despicable!" Ximen Piaoxue took a few steps back, pointing at Shi Feng with a trembling hand, his heart filled with shock. Compared to outsiders, he knew his brother's strength better than anyone. He had a deep understanding and fear of Shi Feng's power. Now that he was targeted by Shi Feng, he was even more terrified. But then he thought, this was a safe zone, so what was there to be afraid of? He burst out laughing, "You're finished. You dared to kill in the safe zone. No one can protect you. Just wait to be executed on the spot by the guards and then thrown into solitary confinement."
Hearing Ximen Piaoxue, everyone suddenly realized that they had been completely stunned by Shi Feng and had forgotten that this was a safe zone, guarded by powerful guards. Even if Shi Feng was strong, he couldn't be stronger than the guards. He would definitely be caught by the guards and meet a tragic end.
"What a pity, but killing in the safe zone is so brave. Even if you are killed and put in solitary confinement, it's worth it. At least you'll have a moment of glory. When you come out tomorrow, you'll still be a hero."
"Awesome! Big brother, you're so cool! I'll warm your bed, please add me as a friend! Please take me along to level up! I promise to be obedient!"
Among the players present, many began to admire Shi Feng's courage. Not only did he dare to oppose the Wu Lin Alliance, but he also dared to challenge the laws of Red Leaf Town, making him their idol. Many attractive female players started inquiring about Shi Feng and even sent friend requests, wanting to get to know him.
At this moment, a squad of heavily armored guards walked over.
Ximen Piaoxue pointed at Shi Feng and laughed, "You're so tough, right? What are you going to do now? You'll lose a level and be confined for 24 hours. Even if you're an expert, after 24 hours of confinement, you'll only be a second-rate player. We'll see how the Wu Lin Alliance deals with you. No one can save you, not even the heavens or the earth."
Far away, Cixin was heartbroken and regretful.
Shi Feng's series of actions just now seemed slow, but they felt as natural as breathing, with no sense of awkwardness. This made Cixin admire Shi Feng even more.
Shi Feng's previous series of actions were what he had been pursuing in assassination techniques.
Ordinary people naturally didn't understand what this meant, but having played multiple virtual games and participated in real-life martial arts competitions, he deeply knew how formidable Shi Feng's skills were.
In the past, if he had met Shi Feng, he would have thought Shi Feng was just average.
However, he had once had the opportunity to exchange ideas with a martial arts master, who had mentioned such a situation.
Combat itself pursues the simplest killing techniques. When these techniques reach a state of perfection, they give no sense of awkwardness, but rather a natural feeling.
Any expert who reaches this level is extremely dangerous. They can stand in front of you and smile, and even if they draw a sword to your neck, you would think it was a joke and feel no sense of danger. Your body would not react, and you would die without even realizing it...
This was not some profound technique, but rather something that could be learned through countless battles and training, becoming an instinct. However, such brutal training was something ordinary people could not endure.
Finally, there was an opportunity for Shi Feng to owe someone a favor, but he had been so decisive, killing Iron Sword Mad Lion without a word. This left Cixin with no way to show his worth or seek guidance.
Now that the guards were here, he had no way to do anything. He was thoroughly angry with Iron Sword Mad Lion for robbing him of a chance to learn.
The captain of the guards, dressed in silver-gray heavy armor, walked up to Shi Feng, and the other guards surrounded the area, making the atmosphere on the street extremely tense.
"Guard sir, he killed my brother. You must arrest him," Ximen Piaoxue walked up to the guard captain, pointing at Shi Feng with a cold smile.
The guard captain did not pay attention to Ximen Piaoxue. His deep gaze turned to Shi Feng, and he said with a smile, "Respected Demon Hunter, this is Red Leaf Town. According to Red Leaf Town law, you must pay a price for killing here. Otherwise, we can only invite you to the solitary confinement room."
Hearing the guard captain, everyone was stunned, and Ximen Piaoxue's mouth opened wide enough to fit three eggs.
What's going on?
Why not execute him on the spot? If he doesn't pay the price, he will be confined? Is he the mayor's son?
No, the mayor is already dead.
Everyone was confused. Why were the guards so polite today? Normally, they were cold and ruthless, let alone smiling.
"I killed him because he threatened me. But I'm not unreasonable. What price do I need to pay? You tell me," Shi Feng nodded and turned to Ximen Piaoxue, smiling calmly.
He had his reasons for killing Iron Sword Mad Lion. Everyone had just entered the Divine Realm and was not very familiar with its rules, but he had lived in the Divine Realm for ten years. He knew exactly what to do and to what extent.
He was now a noble, far above the common people. If he were not a noble, he might have just walked away and ignored Iron Sword Mad Lion. At worst, they would have a thrilling battle in the wild, and the outcome would be uncertain.
But he was now a noble. Even if he killed ordinary players, the guards would not say much, just asking for compensation. The amount of compensation depended on his status and position, but with his wealth, he could afford it.
"Two silver coins," the guard captain said straightforwardly.
"Ah, I see. Here are twenty silver coins. Take them," Shi Feng, surprised by the low price, took out twenty silver coins and handed them to the guard captain.
"Respected Demon Hunter, what are you doing?" The guard captain looked at the twenty silver coins in his hand, puzzled.
"Nothing much. These people threatened me before. I'm going to kill a few more, so consider this as an advance payment."
"..." The guard captain was also stunned.
After saying this, Shi Feng drew his Abyssal Blade and used a level 5 Wind and Thunder Flash. Three lightning bolts instantly pierced through the bodies of Ximen Piaoxue and the others, killing everyone and dropping a lot of equipment. Ximen Piaoxue died without even realizing what had happened.
At the same time, Shi Feng's green player marker turned into a bright red, looking eerie.
Everyone was stunned.
Who is this Shi Feng? He's too powerful!
The Wu Lin Alliance must be dumbfounded. Shi Feng casually spent twenty silver coins to buy their lives, truly showing his wealth and recklessness!
More incredibly, the guard captain did not say anything. He just counted the number of dead people, found that four silver coins were extra, returned the extra coins to Shi Feng, and then turned and left...
