God and Demon Killing Platform: I can summon the gods of China

A gust of cold wind swept through the room without warning, catching everyone off guard.

A dark shadow flashed by like a ghost, breaking the originally focused atmosphere. The air froze instantly, and the tension enveloped everyone like an invisible net.

The Star Knight reacted the fastest. He growled and drew out the lightsaber behind him. The sword made a low humming sound and rushed straight towards the shadow.

The black shadow was none other than the Shadow Assassin. He was extremely agile, like a floating leaf, and easily dodged the knight's fierce attack.

The knight's attack missed, but the shadow assassin counterattacked, and a short dagger cut through the air and went straight for the knight's throat.

The knight quickly dodged to the side and was almost scratched.

"Be careful!" Seeing this, the Guardian of Blue Star immediately joined the battle. The energy shield in his hand emitted a dazzling light, blocking the assassin's subsequent attacks.

The two joined forces to surround the Shadow Assassin in the center.

The knight's swordsmanship was swift, like a violent storm, and the shield of the Blue Star Guardian was indestructible, like a solid wall of steel. The two men cooperated well, both offensively and defensively, and for a moment, they were evenly matched with the Shadow Assassin.

The gray-bearded old man and the Nebula Sage quickly retreated to the corner, and the star spirit turned into a stream of light, surrounding them and forming a protective barrier.

A soft white light appeared in the hands of the Messenger of Light, ready to provide support at any time.

Klinda watched the battle nervously, ready to use her special abilities to assist at any time.

Zhang Cheng stood aside, observing the battle situation calmly and analyzing the enemy's action patterns.

Although the shadow assassin was besieged by two people, he was not panicked at all. His movements were still agile, and his attacks were ruthless and deadly.

He seemed to be able to predict the attack trajectories of the knights and guardians, and was always able to dodge their attacks at the critical moment and wait for an opportunity to counterattack.

"This assassin has extraordinary skills. I'm afraid he is not an ordinary character." The Nebula Sage said in a deep voice, with a hint of worry in his tone.

The grey-bearded old man nodded slightly, a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes, "There is a dark aura about him..."

The shadow assassin suddenly sneered, and with a flash of his body, he distanced himself from the knight and the guardian.

He didn't know when a black poisonous blade appeared in his hand, and the tip of the blade was flashing with a dark green light, which was chilling.

He flicked his wrist, and the poison blade shot out like an arrow from a bow, straight at the Messenger of Light... The poison blade broke through the air, making a sharp whistle, and went straight towards the Messenger of Light.

At the critical moment, Klinda rushed towards the Light Messenger without hesitation and blocked the fatal blow with her body.

The poison blade scratched Klinda's arm, and blood instantly dyed her sleeve red.

"Kelinda!" the Messenger of Light exclaimed, his eyes full of worry and self-blame.

Others also gathered around, asking about Clinda's injuries with concern.

The interstellar knight pounded the wall in frustration, "It's all my fault for reacting too slowly!" His frustrated self-blame made Zhang Cheng look more calm, but also made him seem more powerless.

"I'm fine..." Klinda said palely, trying to hold back the pain, but her trembling voice revealed her weakness.

Upon seeing this, a pirate minion from the atmosphere group laughed sarcastically and said, "Oh, I thought you were some great figure, but it turns out you're just a delicate little girl!" His contemptuous tone and exaggerated gesture invisibly highlighted the weakness of the protagonist team and Zhang Cheng's powerlessness at the moment.

Everyone thought that the Shadow Assassin would take advantage of the victory and continue attacking the injured Klinda, but he made a move that was beyond everyone's expectations.

With a flash of his body, he bypassed everyone and went straight to the gray-bearded old man in the corner of the room!

"Not good! He wants to stop the old man from deciphering the symbols on the wall!" exclaimed the Nebula Sage.

Everyone then realized that the Shadow Assassin’s target was not them, but those mysterious symbols!

Could it be that those symbols hide some important secrets?

The shadow assassin was extremely fast and appeared in front of the gray-bearded old man in a flash, with the dagger in his hand flashing with a cold light.

Although the old man was old, his reaction was extremely quick. He quickly took a step back and avoided the assassin's fatal blow.

"What do you want to do?" the old man shouted, with anger flashing in his turbid eyes.

"Stop you!" The shadow assassin said in a cold tone, his eyes full of murderous intent. He swung the dagger again and attacked the gray-bearded old man.

At this critical moment, the Nebula Sage suddenly chanted a spell...

The Nebula Sage chanted a spell, and obscure syllables came out of his mouth, as if containing an ancient and mysterious power.

A dazzling light of wisdom burst out from his fingertips and instantly enveloped the shadow assassin.

The assassin's movements became visibly slow, as if he was stuck in a quagmire, and his originally smooth attacks became clumsy.

This is exactly the secret weapon of the Nebula Sage - "Slow Wisdom Light".

This move not only slows down the enemy's movements, but also temporarily interferes with their thinking, causing them to fall into temporary confusion.

The Star Knight seized this fleeting opportunity, roared, and swung the sword in his hand in a sharp arc of light, slashing fiercely on the arm of the Shadow Assassin.

The assassin let out a painful roar and the dagger in his hand fell to the ground.

Black blood gushed out from the wound, emitting a disgusting stench.

"Damn it!" The assassin covered his injured arm and glared at the Star Knight fiercely.

His eyes were filled with anger and unwillingness, like a wounded beast, ready to counterattack at any time.

Just then, the white elf came to Klinda and gently held her injured arm.

Holy light emanated from her palm and slowly flowed into Klinda's wound.

Klinda felt a warm force flowing through her body, and the severe pain gradually subsided.

She looked at the elf in white with gratitude, her eyes full of trust and dependence.

The two held hands tightly together, as if conveying each other's warmth and strength.

"Thank you, elf." Clinda's voice was a little weak, but full of sincerity.

The white elf smiled gently, "You're welcome, Klinda. It's my duty to protect you."

The sudden appearance and attack of the Shadow Assassin made everyone realize that the current situation was more complicated and dangerous than they had imagined.

The assassin was obviously coming for the gray-bearded old man and the symbols on the wall, which means that the symbols may contain important secrets, and may even be related to the fate of the entire maze.

Zhang Cheng frowned and looked back and forth between the shadow assassin and the gray-bearded old man.

He felt vaguely uneasy, always feeling that things were not that simple.

The strength of this shadow assassin should not be underestimated, and his appearance was too sudden, as if someone had deliberately arranged it.

"Star Spirit, we must figure out the meaning of those symbols as soon as possible." Zhang Cheng said in a deep voice.

The Star Spirit nodded in agreement.

However, at this moment, Zhang Cheng and the Star Spirit had a disagreement on how to deal with the Shadow Assassin's subsequent attacks.

Zhang Cheng advocated pursuing the enemy while they were victorious and subduing the assassin while he was injured to prevent future troubles.

The Protoss believed that the gray-bearded old man should be protected first to prevent him from being attacked again.

"We must protect the old man first!" Xing Ling's voice was a little hurried. "Those symbols may be related to the secret of the maze. If something happens to the old man, we will not be able to solve the mystery."

"But..." Zhang Cheng wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Xing Ling.

"No buts!" Xing Ling's tone was extremely firm, "Now is not the time to be a hero, we must put the overall situation first!"

Zhang Cheng clenched his fists, his eyes flickering...

"We can't let the tiger go back to the mountains!" Zhang Cheng's voice trembled slightly with excitement. "He is at his weakest now. If he escapes, it will be difficult to catch him next time!"

The electronic voice of the Star Spirit was cold and calm: "Zhang Cheng, you are too impulsive! Protecting the old man and the symbol is the top priority. The assassin is just a small fry, even if he escapes, it will not be a big deal, but if the old man and the symbol fall into the hands of the dark lord, the consequences will be disastrous!"

"A minion?" The Star Knight covered his bleeding arm and said angrily, "This guy almost took my life! This is not something a minion can do!"

"The knight is right," Klinda agreed weakly, "This assassin is very skilled and powerful. We can't take him lightly."

Zhang Cheng pointed at the wall behind the gray-bearded old man, "Those symbols are the key! If we can decipher the meaning of the symbols, maybe we can find a way to deal with the Dark Lord. Then why would we be afraid of assassins?"

Xing Ling was silent for a moment, and there was a hint of helplessness in the electronic voice: "Zhang Cheng, I know you are anxious, but we must remain calm. The current situation is unclear, and rash actions will only put us in a more dangerous situation."

Just as everyone was arguing, the shadow assassin disappeared into the darkness like a ghost.

There was a faint smell of blood in the air, reminding everyone of the thrilling scene that had just happened.

"He ran away..." The Blue Star Guardian looked around vigilantly and said in a deep voice.

Although the assassin disappeared, the tense atmosphere still permeated.

Everyone knew that he must still be nearby, lurking in the darkness, waiting for an opportunity to attack again at any time.

The Lightbringer walked up to Klinda, patted her shoulder, and said softly, "Don't worry, Klinda, we will protect you."

Kelinda nodded gratefully, but her clenched hands betrayed her inner uneasiness.

Zhang Cheng took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. He knew what Xing Ling said made sense, but he was unwilling to give up chasing the assassin.

Suddenly, the gray-bearded old man let out a low groan. He stretched out his hand tremblingly, pointed at the symbol on the wall, and his lips moved as if he wanted to say something.

"Old man..." Zhang Cheng hurried forward to support him.

A trace of fear flashed across the old man's cloudy eyes. He used up his last bit of strength and said intermittently: "Darkness... is coming..."

Before he finished speaking, the old man's hands fell down weakly and he was no longer able to breathe.

Almost at the same time, the dark aura around them suddenly became thicker, and a strong sense of oppression came over them... The electronic voice of the Protoss trembled a little: "Not good, the Dark Lord..."
