248.God is helping me this time! (Page 1/2)
The players rested in Scarlet Castle for two days and then set off again to the Baron of Lim, eager to start hunting the gnoll clan there. However, this time the intensity and frequency of the battles dropped..
It's not that the little players who were screaming and screaming because of the point pool have started to be lazy. They are still as full of energy and courage as before. It is purely because many local gnoll clans have moved to the Under Armor Hills, coupled with the fact that they are still full of energy and courage as before. Miriam summoned the student party and the Meow Meow Brother team as negotiation consultants to be hunting near Bataxin, as well as some witch hunter recruits who were hunting here..
They have not been idle these days. The direct result of the combined effects of several parties is that the number of local jackals has dropped sharply..
This has caused many individual players to give up on continuing to hunt Jackals in the wild to gain points, especially those who have only been in the game for a short time and are eager to upgrade and prepare for the Black Iron Trial and have moved back to the sewers of Scarlet Castle..
The number of ghoul "reserves" here is still sufficient, which can be used for them to fight to quickly improve their character levels. By the way, they can also buy a set of "ghoul series" equipment from the Blood Rat Gang. This set is used by Tris. The alchemy apprentices use it to practice primary enchantment, and the protective gear with weak endurance and dexterity enhancements is no longer inferior to the veteran gear in terms of quality..
At this point, there seems to be a subtle imbalance between players' enthusiasm and monster supply..
The return of some players made the previously empty sewers lively again, and also made the "Frostfang Claws" who had been wandering in the sewers recently doing tasks feel very uncomfortable..
He is a loner.
He seems to be a bit of a social phobia and doesn't like to act with many people. This is the main reason why he chose to become a thief under the Blood Rat Gang..
“There are too many people, it’s time to go.”
With these thoughts in mind, Yaya took a few boxes retrieved from the edge of the sewer and, as a qualified thief should, slipped through the wall and returned to the Blood Rat Gang's stronghold..
This place has been transformed into an underground tavern. Gas lamps are hung in the separated rooms. A veteran of the Blood Rat Gang serves as a bartender here. Some tables and chairs with traces of time are placed here. Several Guys dressed as guards are sitting together enjoying fishing time.
Don’t tell me, it’s quite impressive to look at it like this..
However, Frostfang Claw looked around and couldn't find his professional trainer and the leader of the Rat Gang, Ms. Dorothy. He was hesitating whether to ask the bartender Freeman, but he saw the number two of the Rat Gang. The figure made a cryptic gesture to him.
This is a gesture that can only be understood by people who live in the black zone. It means "The boss is not here and has gone to the second stronghold."”.
Frostfangclaw nodded..
He has been building up the reputation of the Blood Rat Gang since he entered the game. He has brought back "treasures" from dangerous areas in the sewers several times and has been truly regarded as a member of this underground team. He has not wasted time and brought the few treasures he found. The box was handed over to Old Freeman for today's mission, and then he turned towards the more hidden No. 2 Stronghold..
But before he got close, he heard a whimpering sound coming from the front, which startled Frostfang Claw..
There's a wraith here?
No way!
This is obviously a safe zone, right?.
He sneaked closer, and before he had taken a few steps, he heard someone yelling in front of him.:
“Who's there? Get out!”
It was Ms. Dorothy's voice, but it was different from the past. Instead of the familiar carefreeness, it became a bit colder and colder..
Yaya immediately jumped out of the shadows and saw that his mentor had changed drastically..
Not only did he put on the combat uniform and cloak of the Nightcrawler of the Blood Vulture Clan, but his appearance changed from human to vampire, which was as magical as purchasing a "race conversion" service..
“What's the matter with you?”
The little player was startled and asked nervously.
Dorothy, whose eyes were swollen, had already grabbed the claw knife, but when she saw that it was her disciple, she sighed and said with a sad face.:
“What else could be going on? I was bitten by a vampire! Those damn guys forced me to become one of them, but this was not part of my plan. Becoming a vampire was never my pursuit in life..
Ah, I hate Transia!”
“But I have read on the forum that first love is an act that both parties must agree to, otherwise it cannot proceed..”
Frostfang Claw said suspiciously in his trademark restrained voice.:
“So, you actually agree?”
Ms. Dorothy, who was still grieving for her lost human identity, suddenly stopped crying. She curled her lips, turned around and put her hands on her hips and scolded the apprentice who had exposed her disguise of sadness.:
“Just be smart! Tell me how could I say no in that situation? How dare you refuse??
I have been carrying a terrible danger on my back. Those ghost-like guys have been chasing me for many years. Now there happens to be a Blood Eagle clan willing to protect me. It’s not too late for me to be happy. But I also have to give an explanation to the gang members. I could only play a scene with Lady Adele.
Good news for you, Yaya.
From now on, we, master and apprentice, will be eating the 'royal food'. Not only have I solved the problem of my own identity, I have also begged a favor for you from Mrs. Adele..
After you complete the Black Iron Trial, you can directly join Lady Adele and become her 'Warrior' without going through any more trials..”
“Don't call me 'Ya'’!”
Even though Frostfang Claw was afraid of society, he was still a big man. He was never used to being called such cute and adorable names. He waved his hand and said:
“I haven't made a decision yet, but vampires are too high-profile and not suitable for me..”
“Hey, this won't work!”
Dorothy laughed and strode forward, holding her apprentice's shoulders very proudly, she said:
“I just took a job from Mrs. Adele, but I still need your help. I just happened to go out to help you with the Black Iron Trial this time. How are your theft and lockpicking practices going??”
Frostfang Claw glanced at his character interface and replied:
“He is proficient in theft and is already a master in unlocking..”
“ha! I knew you had talent.”
Dorothy raised her eyebrows and said:
“The two of us will follow Lady Adele's other three heirs to the Under Armor Hills and walk around the gnoll camp for reconnaissance..
This life is quite dangerous..
You have to find a place to practice your skills first. I heard that there is a secret treasure house in the Blood Vulture Corridor..
I never dared to think about this before, but now that I am also a member of the Blood Eagle, it is only natural for me to pay homage to my family’s sacred place..
Of course I can swagger in, but you have to sneak in and not be discovered..
If you can do it, I'll teach you the art of shadow escape.’!
This is a serious secret technique that I learned after studying with a master halfling thief for a long time in the Explorers Association.!
How about it?
I said I won't treat our own people badly..”
——
Thirty minutes later, Murphy, who was doing today's sword practice with Necessary Evil, suddenly heard a loud bang in the corridor, followed by a harsh psychic shock coming from below..
That was the signal that the secret treasure house had been breached, and the anti-theft psionic spell Tris arranged there was triggered..
ha?
There's a thief in the base camp?
Or Wolfsbane Nightcrawler got in??
Murphy raised his eyebrows, grabbed the necessary evil hanging in the air and rushed over..
As a result, when I got there, I saw a little player wearing night clothes in a very awkward posture, being restrained in the air by purple dense spider web-like psychic chains, unable to move..
In his hand he still held the burglar's tools for picking locks..
The most exaggerated thing is that he has opened the third level of the seven-level spiritual power + mechanical code lock in the secret treasure house in front of him..
Fortunately, Tris had the foresight to rearrange the psychic traps in the secret treasure house after taking office as the Grand Duke, otherwise they would have been broken through by this "daring" thief..
But what surprised Murphy was that although the little player in front of him had reached level 10, he had not passed the Black Iron Trial. So, how did this guy sneak in under the strict patrols of the corridor guards? Where did he get the courage to enter the Blood Vulture Corridor alone??
In the end, it was the guards arranged by Tris who were taking advantage of the situation.?
Or is this guy really talented at sneaking around??
With doubts, Murphy stepped forward with his sword, stretched out his hand and pulled down the hood used by Frostfang Claw, revealing a pair of handsome faces..
This guy's facial features look quite neutral. He is obviously very young but has a strange sense of vicissitudes of life. When he came into contact with his calculation orb, Murphy also extracted the character information of this little guy.:
Tester ID: Frostfang Claw
Rank: Level 10·Professional
Occupation: Level 10 Thief/Level 10 Rogue/Master of Appraisal·Archaeology Specialization
Character Specialties: [Dexterous Hands], [Fierce Eyes: He has been engaged in archaeological work for a long time and can quickly judge the value and authenticity of items], [Social Phobia: Due to a strong resistance to communicating with others, long-term efforts to reduce the sense of existence make others Decreased chance of sensing.】
The specialties of these three characters made Murphy feel unexpected..
blanch!
Shouldn't they recruit a reverse fighter??
Then with a weird look on his face, he opened his administrator system and called up the test application of the guy in front of him, looked at it carefully, and then he breathed a sigh of relief..
The good news is that the brother in front of him has no history of engaging in illegal activities, so Murphy does not need to think about how to contact the local police..
