At this moment, the three figures slowly emerged, their bodies radiating a blue glow.

Jiang Chen pondered. I wonder what Phantom Class they belong to? I have no clues whatsoever. A warrior? Or a Magician? Melee combat? Or ranged?

Angelina entered battle mode. Her six tails stretched out, enveloping her until only her eyes were visible. In her view, anyone who could withstand Sword Qi was undoubtedly a master.

At this time, one of the black-robed men opposite began to display his Strength. A blue glow enveloped his entire body as he pulled out a bow and arrow from his embrace.

Jiang Chen was puzzled. An Archer? No, that's not right. If he's an Archer, then what's with the blue glow on his body?

Just then, the black-robed man opposite drew his bow and shot an arrow at Jiang Chen. It flew at an extremely fast speed. Jiang Chen performed a Flash in the Void and swiftly dodged, watching the arrow disappear.

This is Energy, arrows made of converged Energy, Jiang Chen realized.

The only thing he could be sure of was that the person before him was a Hero.

Jiang Chen took out his communication device.

He asked Bartley, "We're being intercepted by a Hero, and the opponent is very mysterious."

"What? The 'Ghost' organization has taken action already?"

"I don't know if it's them, but the opponent's body can emit a blue glow, like a kind of Armor. What class could that be?"

"A blue glow?"

"Yes."

"That's someone from the Takano Divine Clan. Their vocation is Illusionist."

"Illusionist? Like Aunt Liz?"

"Yes, their vocation is indeed Illusionist. They can awaken their eyes and use them to cast illusions. However, Illusionists are divided into Illusion Technique and physical technique. The latter is very strong and can produce a blue glow that, when combined with their equipment, grants extremely high defensive power. Just wait for me; I'll come to support you."

"You can't beat them."

"Bro, don't forget, I'm a Prosecutor, immune to one hundred percent of damage! As long as it's a Hero, they simply can't hurt me. Looks like you've caught a big fish this time! I was just worrying about not having any merits to get promoted. As long as we catch them and confirm their identities, I can finish my internship and become official."

Bartley hung up the communicator and hurried over.

Jiang Chen observed their battle mode.

At this moment, the blue glow spread out from one opponent, evolving into a ten-meter-long skeletal figure.

Jiang Chen was stunned. What Takano Clan? This seems more like the Uchiha Clan's abilities! Xu Zuo? This is getting interesting!

A thought crossed Jiang Chen's mind, and his Sword Qi surged forward to attack.

CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!

Well... Indeed, it's a class with extremely strong defensive power, he thought.

"This kid is quite skillful!" one of the black-robed men commented.

"Stop fussing and make your move; the mission is what's important," another urged.

"Let me handle this."

Jiang Chen watched as a third one stepped forward. As this person looked at Jiang Chen, he felt a mysterious force binding him, causing his brows to furrow deeply.

Is this an Illusion Technique? However, it seems like Illusion Techniques don't affect me.

The black-robed man who had stepped forward launched sharp arrows at Jiang Chen, who quickly dodged.

"Eh, the Illusion Technique is ineffective?" the man exclaimed.

"Be careful. This guy isn't that easy to deal with. If we can't use Illusion Techniques on him, then we'll use our physical techniques to take him down."

"Alright."

In an instant, the three changed their combat strategy. A ten-meter-tall skeletal figure appeared around each of their bodies.

Jiang Chen laughed. "Three Xu Zuos? Quite interesting."

I wonder if Mysterious Heavenly Finger can break through Xu Zuo's defensive Armor. True Qi can ignore any defense, any Armor. This is also my only attack method as one of The Fallen.

Jiang Chen said to Angelina, "Be careful, these three aren't easy to handle."

Angelina nodded. "I know."

Jiang Chen, holding his Thin Sword, rushed toward the three men.

The three quickly drew their Longswords and swung at the approaching Jiang Chen. Their attacks slashed the ground, kicking up clouds of dust. By the time they looked again, Jiang Chen had already appeared behind one of them.

It doesn't matter if you're a Xu Zuo or not, Jiang Chen thought. He directed a Mysterious Heaven One Finger at the back of the Takano Divine Clan member's head. A beam of light burst from his left index finger, piercing through the blue Defense Cover and drilling through the enemy's skull.

The other two's faces changed dramatically as they hastily retreated. What kind of Skill was that? An attack that ignored defense? Sword Qi that could penetrate blue Armor? This...

Jiang Chen looked at the remaining two and smiled. Indeed, it was effective. The Mysterious Heavenly Finger isn't Sword Qi, nor is it the Energy of the Continent of All-Gods. It's the Energy of The Fallen—an attack that ignores all defenses!

"Retreat..." one of them yelled.

The two men swiftly tore open Space and dived in, escaping the battlefield in an instant.

So much for martial virtue. They run if they can't win, Jiang Chen mused. Watching the two disappear, he felt helpless. After all, I don't possess any Space Skills!

At that moment, Bartley quickly approached, only to see a body on the ground.

Bartley asked, "Is he dead?"

"Killed one, but two got away," Jiang Chen replied.

Bartley crouched down, lifted the mask from the corpse, and examined it. He took out a mirror and, holding it up to the dead man's face, exclaimed, "This is Takano Kazuo, a member of the Takano Divine Clan!"

"You know him?" Jiang Chen asked.

"His eyes had already awakened. He was a very powerful person. It seems the 'Ghost' organization has members from the Takano Divine Clan. Do you know what the other two looked like?"

Jiang Chen shook his head. "How would I know? They were all wearing masks."

Bartley sighed helplessly. "Then there's nothing we can do. We won't be able to find any information."

"What is the Takano Divine Clan, and why have I never heard of them before?" Jiang Chen asked.

"They are a clan, but they are people from the Continent of All-Gods, just like our Titan Tribe," Bartley explained. "We both awaken as warriors, but they awaken as Illusionists."

"They reside in the Takano World and rarely venture out. Outsiders also seldom enter. The Takano Divine Clan is very insular."

Jiang Chen asked, "Is there a God in the Takano World?"

"There is a God in the Takano World, but this God doesn't reside in their world, but rather in the Divine Domain. Divine beings dwell in the Divine Domain. Ordinary people can't see them unless they advance to the eighth or even Ninth-stage and become a Demigod, allowing them to occasionally catch a glimpse."

"And even if we make it into the Divine Domain, we won't be able to meet the Divine beings."

"The Takano Kazuo you killed was a Six-stage Illusionist."

Sixth-stage, huh! It seems they weren't that strong after all! Jiang Chen thought.

Bartley crouched down, took out a small knife, and after some effort, extracted the eyes, placing them into a small bottle.

"What are you doing?" Jiang Chen asked, surprised.

"Their eyes are treasures," Bartley said. "We can keep them and even transplant them by implanting their eyes into others."

Hmm... Transplantation? That actually sounds like a pretty good idea! Isn't that Orochimaru's ultimate dream?

Jiang Chen asked, "If you transplant them, will you gain their power?"

"No."

"Then why do it?"

"Although it won't grant their strength, it can bestow their abilities. Many people do this. For example, take the Half-Dragon Tribe from Dragon Blood World. Their hearts are extraordinarily strong. After transplanting their hearts, one's stamina improves significantly. They can even absorb Energy, allowing their bodies to recover quickly."

"There's also the Feathered Tribe's wings. After transplantation, one can gain Flight."

"If the Cannibal Tribe were people from the Continent of All-Gods, one could also gain the power of Hezi through transplantation."

Jiang Chen was full of doubts. "What about the Badge then?"

"A Badge is a Badge, eyes are eyes; they don't conflict. It's the same principle as Angelina turning her Hezi [Nine Tails] into a Weapon."

Jiang Chen pondered. A Badge represents strength, whereas the eyes of the Takano Divine Clan are a special bloodline. The power of a bloodline doesn't conflict with a Badge. The Takano Clan are people from the Continent of All-Gods.
