In the midst of the assassins, voices slightly spoke. It mattered none to Rex. He could hear better with his Soul Qi and the assassins did not know and could not feel the Soul Qi.
"Strike fast and hard in a couple of minutes." The signal was given.
The group got there and sat in position. Unknowingly, Rex had already laid out traps for the assassins. Before they could spring into action, the traps activated.
The assassins knew that this was something already preplanned for something else and it caught them unaware.
For the first assassin, he stepped on a needle and lost his ability to use Qi for a few minutes. If there had been another one right by it. It would have possible for the poison to last longer.
The second one lost his ability to control his limbs and fell down. Although his poison needle was not as strong. It could stop his heart from beating and kill him if he was not lucky.
These two needles were the hardest to do. First, Rex did not like poison but also using his own Qi to make the poison was hard. Secondly, if they did not step on the needles then the work was pointless.
Sensing that something went wrong. The eldest assassin tried to back off. He found that he was now in the Demon Realm in a dungeon.
He looked around and Zeus came in. His smile was genuinely good but his walk was pure evil. The assassin knew that his life was either over or everything would be spilled.
When he tried to feel for his poison tooth, it had disappeared along with his ring full of weapons.
"You see. My former master, Lady Lilith, had to find a way to stop prisoners from killing themselves inside the dungeon. So she enchanted the entire floor with special formations that take all poison and weapons away. Once we lock up the poison and weapons, we break those who were forced to enter in here." Zeus told the assassin.
This made him rethink why he had once become someone worthy of high level missions within the Assassin Sect.
"Do you believe that I will not fight you to the death?" The assassin asked.
"I believe you would in a heartbeat. However, I also believe that you should know that I am superior to you in every sense." Zeus replied.
The assassin knew that Zeus was telling the truth but could not find it in his heart to betray his Sect.
As for the fourth assassin, he was instantly sent deep into the ground and killed under the pressure.
The fifth assassin simply refused to let himself be tied up in a weird rope. So he ultimately decided to try and cut it. When he did, the rope sent the slash straight back splitting the assassin in two.
The final assassin who Rex had his dragon fight him was pleased with the fighting style. Too much speed was a good thing in front of Rex's eyes until he noticed the scales of his dragon falling off.
He still had not yet made a move. The last assassin knew that something here was what led the dragon here. For them to be the ones suffering, they had ultimately lost either way.
The first assassin who lost his Qi ability suddenly felt sick when it returned. He began to vomit everything out of his stomach.
This was the upside to Rex's attempt at poison. The floral around were usually not poisonous. When combined with a little Qi that is demonic it turned the pollen around there into a poison as well.
The only reason why Rex knew this was because of the last incident before he went back in time. Several demons fought here and players became unable to fight to their fullest.
They still won barely, it was enough of a handicap to make the battle seem completely in favor of the demons.
When Rex remembered this, he knew that none of the assassins would survive. He could change the poison very quickly. He decided not to and just allow them to be defeated for now.
Two minutes later, the one who lost control of his limbs died. Nothing special just simply his heart could not handle the poison and shut off.
The one assassin who had only lost his Qi barely was alive. Even then, it was considered that he was dead to Rex's point of view and the other assassin.
The assassin and the dragon stood against each other. Before he could attack, something made him lose consciousness. Rex grabbed him and the other who could still be alive. He went to deliver them to Liz who was eager to learn more about Malam Bei.
Meanwhile
"Sir, three assassins are dead. Near the hill with the very good floral." A man spoke about three life counters breaking.
"Damned traps." The man spoke.
This was the only guard who reported to the best assassin. He got up ready to advance.
"Sir, another one of the life counters say that one of the assassins was sent to the Demon Realm." The man spoke.
"Great. Now we are doomed." The guard spoke and left.
