Born Sacred-Chapter 69: Main Mission 2/3

Noah’s expression was serious.

With their strength, staying in the Capital was too dangerous, especially as the day of the Challenge: Showdown at the Forbidden City approached.

Rose and the others nodded in agreement, completely following Noah’s orders.

They knew their limits. From now on, the most important thing was how to protect themselves and survive until they successfully cleared the instance.

"What about you?" Rose asked with concern.

"Challenge: Showdown at the Forbidden City, what a grand event. What a pity it would be if I couldn’t experience it firsthand," Noah’s eyes were filled with anticipation.

...

Half a day later, Rose and the others successfully left the Capital.

Although the Capital was already under strict martial law, with Zara’s spatial movement, no matter how high the city walls of the Capital were or how strict the patrols were, they couldn’t stop them.

Finding a quiet place, the four waited patiently. Zara and Claire chatted excitedly.

This was the longest instance they had experienced. They had been rushing around for two days, plus continuous battles. Even with their strong physical fitness, they felt very tired, but their spirits were very high.

They were guessing what kind of rewards they would get for clearing the instance. Once the World Announcement came out, it would probably shock the whole world again. They didn’t doubt at all that they could clear the instance. Because Noah was there.

Smith frowned slightly. He was pondering the words Noah had said earlier. After thinking for a long time without an answer, he couldn’t help but ask Rose for help: "You said, Noah said before, ’Challenge: Showdown at the Forbidden City, what a grand event. What a pity it would be if I couldn’t experience it firsthand’... How exactly does he mean to experience it firsthand?" 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Hearing this, Rose smiled and was about to answer, but suddenly realized Smith’s meaning, and her expression couldn’t help but change slightly: "You mean, Noah is very likely to truly participate in this battle and duel with Sword God and Blade Saint?"

Smith nodded with a bitter expression.

Zara and Claire, who were chatting nearby, were drawn over. After understanding, the two girls’ expressions also changed.

"Noah won’t do anything he’s not confident about," Claire said very confidently. She always had full confidence in Noah.

"That’s Tier 2, and it’s a high-difficulty Tier 2..." Rose muttered.

10% Rank Suppression, it’s not enough to cause despair. But even within Tier 2, there are differences in strength.

This is a high-difficulty instance. Even Ordinary Tier 2 might not be able to defeat first-class experts, let alone Sword God and Blade Saint, who are above all martial artists. Their strength is far beyond what Ordinary Tier 2 can compare to.

"How strong is he exactly?"

Rose murmured in a low voice.

Even as a teammate, she couldn’t fathom the limit of Noah’s strength; it seemed to have no end.

Why Lin Ming and the other rebels were so desperate, believing Noah was invincible, she gradually felt the same way.

...

[Sam]

[Rank: First Order]

[Attributes: Strength 4500, Agility 4000, Constitution 4200, Spirit 3700]

[Skills: Great Bright Fist, Flower Picking Finger...]

Noah looked at the light screen in front of him. This was a first-class expert within the instance.

As Noah expected, their attributes were basically above 4000. Although there were strong and weak among first-class experts, the others wouldn’t be too far off. Glancing at the big bald head from afar, Noah turned and left without any hesitation.

His attributes completely crushed the opponent, and with the 70% fist technique power provided by Close Combat Specialization, Noah highly doubted whether the opponent could withstand a slightly serious punch from him. First-class experts no longer interested him.

Noah’s attention was focused on those two super-first-class experts. He had a premonition that he could draw enough nourishment from them to allow his cultivation technique to break through again.

"Let’s finish the main quest first."

Considering that there might be major changes after the decisive battle, threatening the safety of Rose and the others, Noah decided to complete most of the main quest first.

At this time, most of the first-class experts of the Valorian Empire were gathered in the Capital, not limited to the Central Province. The list provided by Rose and the others naturally consisted mostly of members from the underworld, but there were also some first-class experts from the righteous path.

Those on the list were either extremely confident in themselves, had powerful forces, or had numerous subordinates, so they didn’t hide their whereabouts much. How difficult it was to kill them.

However, for Noah, it was not difficult at all. When he didn’t deliberately hold back, the power he unleashed was powerful beyond imagination. Break in, kill the target, leave.

Others couldn’t even react. By the time they rushed out in pursuit, Noah had long since disappeared. They didn’t even know who had attacked.

Before other forces could react, Noah went to the next location and repeated the above process.

Main quest completion: 2/3.

Noah had already eliminated two of the three top-tier experts required for the main quest.

As for the last one, it would depend on which lucky person was chosen at that time.

After all, once the quest was completed, he could only stay in the instance for a maximum of ten minutes, so Noah definitely wouldn’t rush to make a move.

The deaths of the two top-tier experts from the underworld caused a huge stir in the Capital. The appearance of a mysterious assassin made other top-tier experts feel insecure, and they all went into hiding.

The Valorian Empire Imperial Court was in a frenzy, trying to find the killer, but naturally, they found nothing.

As midnight approached, no one paid attention to the deaths of those two anymore. Everyone’s gaze was directed towards the Imperial Palace.

The location for the Challenge: Showdown at the Forbidden City was naturally the Hall of Light, the highest point in the Imperial Palace.

This was originally where Emperor Liam held morning court, but at this moment, it had become the battlefield for a peak showdown.

Tens of thousands of Imperial Guards surrounded the Imperial Palace so tightly that not even a drop of water could get through. Trespassers would be killed without mercy.

This was a form of screening; the Imperial Palace was a heavily guarded area, and those without sufficient strength couldn’t enter. To witness this peak showdown, one had to be at least a Tier 2 expert.

For others, this checkpoint was like an insurmountable chasm, but for Noah, it was effortless.

Standing on the roof of a palace, Noah gazed in the direction of the Hall of Light, waiting for the main characters to appear. Faintly, he could see some figures nearby, clearly experts from both the righteous and unrighteous paths.
