i became a shadow

Chapter 3 Training
It was a dark and bloody man, with a mask made of fine iron on his face, and a pair of scarlet and terrifying eyes that made people creepy, even a photo could tell his ruthlessness at a glance.

The heavily armed silver-gray light armor shone with cold light, and the surrounding shadows surged like water, and the whole person seemed to blend into the darkness, like a born killer.

The blades equipped with both hands are even darker, and a cloud of black mist surrounds the tip of the blade, revealing an endless killing momentum.

Lord of the Shadow Stream - Jie!

The supreme leader of the Shadow Cult!
At the same time, he is also the most feared ninja assassin in Valoran!
There are countless legends about Jie. It can be said that he is one of the most popular heroes in his previous life. Although he has the word hero, his actions are completely unreliable. On the contrary, cruelty and coldness are more in line.

If this is the case, it won't make Duao excited. After all, if it is simply calculated by strength, Jie may not be as strong as the first two characters. What really makes him care about is Jie's mysterious and extremely strange Shadow Mystery!

It is a magical dark ability tabooed by the world, manipulating one's own shadow to achieve the ultimate effect of ninjutsu, using the power of shadow to become a veritable shadow ninja, this is the ability Duao values.

Everyone knows Duo's current state, and Jie's Shadow Profound Truth is just a timely help for him. If he can flexibly use this incredible power, Duo is sure that his strength can go up like a rocket.

Exhaling heavily, Duo's eyes gradually became firm. Although the other two apprentices are also very attractive, he can't have both. He can only choose the most beneficial aspect first.

"Since light has nothing to do with me, I can only embrace darkness..."

Duo murmured to himself, and glanced reluctantly before speaking to the system.

"I choose the third subject to be my teacher, the Lord of Shadow Stream—Jie!"

As soon as the voice fell, a blue light instantly shone on the screen interface, and there was a faint and indifferent atmosphere, constantly entangled around Duo.

"The choice is successful, and the training scenario is being simulated..."

"Dummy character..."

"Conveying instructions..."

"Will teleportation, please wait..."

"It's all done, I wish the host a happy training!"

Seeing the programs start one after another, Duo couldn't help clenching his fists, feeling a little nervous inside.

Finally, as the final system's icy voice fell, Duo felt dizzy for an instant, and countless white fragments flashed before his eyes.

When Duo saw clearly again, the scene in his eyes had changed drastically, and the original interface was replaced by a huge training place.

Not so much a training ground, but actually a fighting arena similar to ancient Rome.

The whole building is in a huge circular pattern, bounded by the area occupied by the central competition, and every time the remaining part expands outward, the yellow-brown steps are paved and overlapped, stepping towards the surrounding golden carved stone pillars one after another, like The staircase leading to the zenith is magnificent.

At the same time, at the bottom of the steps in the central area, there are four prisons for criminals.

Each iron pillar has a thick human arm, and the passage inside is even more bottomless, like a black bottomless pit, exuding a chilling atmosphere all the time.

However, such a majestic and magnificent landscape ushered in Duo's complaints.

"Where is this a training ground..."

He rolled his eyes and his tone was speechless. He was also a history class representative in the past, so he naturally knew a little about the design of some ancient buildings. The training ground like this is clearly the Colosseum.

"But maybe it's not too much to call it a training ground for those who are desperate."

I don't know why, this kind of thought came out of Duo's mind inexplicably, and immediately made him look around uneasy, and a man wearing a mask appeared in his eyes without any warning.

Duo couldn't think of anyone else except the ninja assassin Zed that masked man exuding indifference.

At this time, Duo was uneasy, he had been staying on the cold screen with the image of Jie, but now the other party was standing in front of him like a living person, no one would believe him if he was not nervous.

Jie was so quiet, standing on the spot like a wooden stake, as if he didn't care about Duo at all, but Duo knew that the other party never moved his eyes to him.

Even though it was covered by a mask, the cold and prickly skin feeling told Duo all the time that his instinct was correct.

"you are not human."

After a long time, a cold voice suddenly sounded, but just such a sentence instantly made the quiet and strange atmosphere disappear without a trace, leaving only the bewildered Duo.

"Ugh?"

Duo, who still wanted to say something, fell into deep thought after Jie Jie's next sentence.

"Very pure power of shadow..."

This time it was different from the previous indifference, his words were obviously filled with intense interest, and those scarlet eyes even exuded a fiery light.

Stared at by such fiery eyes, Duo couldn't help taking a few steps back, and directly bumped into a blunt object.

He hurriedly turned around, only to see Jie looking down at him, and Jie's original position suddenly turned into a shadow.

Shadow clone!
Duo's complexion changed drastically, and the ability he dreamed of appeared in front of him at this moment, but he really couldn't be happy at all, after all, no one would feel comfortable being stared at naked like this.

He didn't notice, or he didn't care about Duo's vigilance at all.

Jie looked at him with many emotions in his eyes, interested, joyful, complicated, etc.

Then, without knowing what came to mind, he suddenly spoke to him.

"Would you like to follow me to explore the secrets of Shadow Profound Meaning?"

Hearing this, Duo blinked his eyes. Although Jie's reversal was a bit strange, he still nodded. After all, didn't he come here just to improve his strength?
Jie didn't speak, and then he took out a short sword from nowhere, and threw it casually, so it happened to fall into the latter's hand.

Immediately after robbery, he clapped his palms, followed by a loud bang from the bottom dungeon, and the indestructible iron gate began to rise slowly, and a figure walked out from the abyss.

He was a little thin, but his face was fierce, his whole body was full of violence like a wild beast, and his originally dark eyeballs had long been covered with bloodshot eyes.

Jie smiled indifferently, and spoke in a normal tone.

"kill him!"

Duo was awe-inspiring, his beating heart trembled suddenly, and when he heard Jie Senleng's words full of chills, although he really wanted to refuse, he knew he must not do so.

Whether it is from robbery or from one's own point of view, it is not allowed.

Duo took a deep breath and kept telling himself that this was just a fiction before making up his mind to walk towards the prisoner.
