The human body is complex and precise—source power, supernatural abilities, body, and mind all influence each other. That’s why Henry Clark’s stats for strength and agility are quite ordinary, even noticeably lower than Grace Hill’s.
Only his mental stat stands out, reaching as high as 28 points.
Such mental power is even stronger than that of an average gold-level expert.
Before his rebirth, Henry Clark was the infamous King of Assassins: Skylar.
Among the many gold-level experts, Henry Clark might not have been the strongest. But he was universally acknowledged as number one in spiritual power.
He was always the one killing others, yet no one could ever track him down.
This formidable mental strength is the true foundation of Henry Clark’s mastery over the God-Slaying Sword.
That’s why, for Henry Clark, killing William Carter and David Miller was as easy as slaughtering a chicken. As for the others, they’re not even worth mentioning.
On Pegasus Star, due to external factors like source power, the highest attainable is source power level ten—essentially the peak of bronze rank.
Now, with the God-Slaying Sword in hand, Henry Clark can take on anyone as long as they’re not a level ten powerhouse.
Just like the two guys outside the door—they’re basically just here to be slaughtered.
On this smuggling ship, there are certainly no good people. Even though Henry Clark paid a hefty fee to be smuggled, several sailors still wanted to kill Henry Clark and take all his money.
But over the past ten days, Henry Clark never left his room and never ate the food they brought.
The group never found a good opportunity.
They tested him a few times and noticed that Henry Clark’s eyes might have a problem. The key point was that Grace Hill was beautiful but remained unconscious. No one knew what was going on.
Grace Hill’s beauty only fueled their malicious intentions.
With just two days left before reaching the inner sea—where there would be more ships and it would be harder to make a move—the group couldn’t hold back any longer and decided to act.
The two sailors were cautious. Standing at the door, they exchanged glances and quietly drew their guns.
Henry Clark always kept his eyes closed, which they found eerie. Especially since Henry Clark was so handsome, almost beyond human limits.
Someone like that definitely needed to be handled carefully.
Still, two pistols against a blind man shouldn’t be a problem.
The short sailor whispered to the tall one, “I’ll knock first. If he opens the door, shoot him—but try not to kill him. A man this handsome could fetch a good price!”
The tall one nodded vigorously.
The short sailor knocked twice, but there was no response from inside.
He was a bit puzzled and pressed his ear to the door, trying to listen for any movement.
A flash of crimson light—a blood-red sword blade suddenly pierced through the short sailor’s ear.
His head was run through by the blade; he didn’t even have time to react and died on the spot.
The tall sailor was stunned, caught off guard by the sudden turn of events, not understanding what had happened.
The crimson blade flashed again, and the sword pierced straight through the tall sailor’s forehead.
With a surge of blood-red light, the two sailors dissolved into a mass of blood.
Henry Clark pushed open the door and sneered disdainfully, “I was actually a bit reluctant to kill and silence you, but since you insisted on coming to me, I won’t be polite.”
Escaping from the Beikun Base wasn’t the end—it was just the beginning.
The Blood God Society’s influence spans the galaxy, vast beyond measure. Although Beikun Base is just a small branch, the deaths of David Miller and William Carter will definitely attract the Blood God Society’s attention.
Henry Clark knew very well that as soon as he and Grace Hill revealed even a trace of their whereabouts, they would face endless pursuit from the Blood God Society.
Fortunately, Beikun Base is a completely closed facility. All student data is stored only in the base’s mainframe.
Because host Samuel Harris had an issue, this data was never submitted.
As long as he cleaned up all traces, the Blood God Society wouldn’t discover the existence of him and Grace Hill.
When choosing a smuggling ship, Henry Clark immediately noticed the captain’s fierce face: he was a Spirit Race member.
The Spirit Race is a very special lifeform, essentially a mass of condensed green light with no physical body. They can only parasitize other lifeforms.
Once parasitic, the Spirit Race gradually erodes the host’s mind, eventually taking over the body completely.
After humanity entered the galactic era, contact with the Spirit Race became inevitable. The Spirit Race successfully infiltrated humanity and began to thrive among them.
Humans possessed by the Spirit Race retain their knowledge and memories, but their fundamental thinking is completely altered.
The existence of the Spirit Race fundamentally undermines human unity and the foundation of human society, directly leading to humanity’s defeat and destruction in the galactic war.
It can be said that the Spirit Race is humanity’s mortal enemy—coexistence is impossible.
With the number one spiritual power and six wings of Skylar, Henry Clark is extremely sensitive to the Spirit Race’s aura. As long as he gets close, he can immediately identify them.
In his view, the Spirit Race must be exterminated.
Henry Clark originally planned to wait two more days, but since the other side made the first move, he wouldn’t hold back.
Henry Clark casually closed the door behind him and, holding the God-Slaying Sword, headed upstairs.
This smuggling ship isn’t large—just over a dozen sailors and a captain. The ship mainly deals in smuggling and trafficking various contraband.
Human smuggling is just their side business.
The endless sea makes life on board dull. Now that they were about to deal with Henry Clark, the sailors were all excited, gathering in the cockpit to chat with the captain.
“That kid is really damn good-looking. I think he’s even better than his sister!”
