Chapter 147 - Assassination?

Chapter 147: Assassination?

When the loading option in the game was completed, a black light cocoon immediately appeared on Lorne in reality. It turned into energy and entered his body.
At this moment, Lorne went offline.
Before he could check his body, he immediately realized that something had appeared in his mind.
It was a system panel!
Just like the interface in the game.
However, there was no data on this panel for the time being, only an equipment icon.
“It really materialized!”
Lorne looked incredulous.
Although he was mentally prepared, he was still shocked by it.
Virtual reality materialization was beyond Lorne’s understanding.
Fortunately, Lorne had lived a rich life, so he was much more accepting of this special information than ordinary people. He only gasped for a few seconds before recovering.
He began to check the details of this equipment and found that it was identical to the one in the game.
“In that case, invisibility!”
Lorne activated the equipment’s active skill.
Because he did not have any stealth-type skills, he could not trigger the effect of [Strengthened Stealth]. He could only directly trigger the effect of [Shadow Stealth].
When Lorne triggered this active skill, his body directly turned illusory, and he even disappeared from this world.
He was like a person who existed in another dimension. He could see everything in this world, but others could not see him.
Standing in front of the mirror, he did not see himself.
Not only that, but there was no sign of him on the ground.
“This invisibility is stronger than I imagined.” Lorne muttered to himself.
He did not leave his room, for he had to test the duration of the skill.
In the game, the duration of this skill was related to the player’s MP.
But this was reality. He did not have any MP.
Therefore, this needed to be tested before the final data could be obtained.
Time passed slowly. Lorne stood there and waited.
Three minutes later, Lorne felt his mental state worsen, as if something was draining away.
Five minutes later, Lorne felt a slight headache.
Then, he stopped the test.
After resting on the sofa for a long time, Lorne opened his eyes.
According to the test, he had basically confirmed the duration of the Ghost Shadow Necklace’s invisibility.
The longest period of invisibility was about seven minutes. If it exceeded that time, there was a risk of fainting.
In addition, under invisibility, his movement speed was greatly increased.
The Ghost Shadow Necklace had the effect of increasing movement speed by 30%. Although it would only be triggered when one was invisible, it still gave Lorne a huge boost.
With this amplification effect, his physical fitness would exceed 99.9% of the population. Unless he moved at high speed, it was difficult for anyone to keep up with him.
About three hours later, Lorne felt that he had basically recovered.
He looked at the door as a bold thought occurred to him.
Since he had obtained the invisibility ability, he had to test it out and see if anyone outside could discover him.
Without hesitation, Lorne left.
As he walked out the door, at the entrance of another small villa, two guys in black suits and sunglasses were stealthily trying to unlock the door.
This strange behavior attracted Lorne’s attention, and he quickly arrived near it.
Because of his invisibility, the other party did not realize that their actions were being watched.
Crack!
With the efforts of one of them, the door was quickly unlocked.
The two strong men who were dressed vigilantly rushed into the house, and Lorne followed them.
The decor of this small villa was more classical. It could be seen that the other party was a more cultured woman, because there were only two pairs of high heels on the shoe rack.
Two men sneaked into a woman’s villa?
They did not seem like good people.
He followed the two to the bedroom. Soon, a beautiful woman in a dress who was about to change appeared in his vision.
“Who are you?!”
When she noticed that someone had intruded, the woman immediately became nervous.
However, to his surprise, this woman seemed much calmer than ordinary people. Although she looked nervous, she did not shout.
“Our boss wants you to stay here forever.”
Two strong men in suits blocked the entrance, their tone extremely cold.
One of them even took out a small handgun from under his suit. Clearly, they wanted to kill the woman in front of them.
“You’re from the Zamas family?”
The woman looked at them calmly. At this moment, she did not forget to investigate their identity.
Perhaps she knew that it was impossible for her to escape, so she wanted to know the truth.
Unfortunately, the two men did not answer. The guy with the gun raised the gun.
At this critical moment, a baseball bat suddenly swung down.
Plop!
The man in the suit holding the gun fell to the ground.
The other man in the suit had just reacted, but before he could do anything, the baseball bat came flying at his face.
The baseball bat with huge force directly hit the other party’s face, causing blood to burst out.
At the same time, Lorne appeared. With his baseball bat in hand, he stepped forward and kicked the other two. He was relieved to find that they had both passed out.
This was real life after all. Lorne could not be as relaxed as in the game.
Of course, he did not feel too burdened.
This time, he had not reached the extent of killing, so it was not hard to accept.
As for the woman in the dress, she looked at the scene in shock.
Just now, she thought that she was a goner, but she did not expect that at this critical moment, there was actually someone who saved her life.
“Are you okay?” Lorne asked casually.
The woman recovered herself and shook her head in response, then asked in surprise, “Who… are you?”
“I’m your next-door neighbor.”
With the baseball bat in hand, Lorne kicked the suited man on the ground and said, “When I was going out just now, I saw these two guys sneakily opening the door, so I followed them to take a look. I didn’t expect them to be assassins.”
Hearing this, the woman looked at Lorne again and was relieved to find that he did not seem to be lying. Even her eyes lit up.
“Please wait a moment.”
The woman picked up her phone and made a call, “Yes, send someone over first.”
