Chapter Eleven 'Manor Events'

Woody doesn't know which demon hunter the Shadow Snake School originally originated from, but if he were to choose the most suitable one among the four basic schools of thought, then he would definitely choose "Shadow Snake" without hesitation.

Whether it is attack methods or combat weapons, he is quite proficient in them.

To put it simply, he has rich combat experience.

Whether it is a giant bear or a winter wolf, Woody's understanding of them is far less profound than that of the Shadow Snake. Most of the alchemy potions he prepared in his previous life were chosen to enhance the "Shadow Snake" school.

Therefore, choosing this school of thought couldn’t be more correct.

With the confirmation of the Shadow Snake School, however, it is different from the game.

There are no extra skill icons in Woody's field of vision.

Instead, there is a strange memory in my mind that does not belong to the previous life or the original owner.

The violent impact made Woody cover his head and groan.

In his memory, he was training day and night in a dungeon that resembled a demon hunter's castle, fighting, sneaking, assassinating, disarming (making) traps, dispensing poisons, and...parkour.

Finally, after an unknown period of time, with the approval of the demon hunter mentor who could not see his face clearly, he led the horse and left the demon hunter castle on the high mountain, heading for the vast continent...

When Woody opened his eyes again, everything in the alchemy room was still so familiar, but also a little strange. Everything he remembered just now seemed to have happened before, but it was like a dream.

But when the torrent of data washed over his eyes again, he knew that all this was not a dream.

"The Shadow Snake School confirms."

"Character attribute adjustment: Agility 16→17."

"Professional skills update: stealth, traps, movement, alchemy."

"Comprehension Feat: Shadow Ambush"

In the alchemy room, shrouded in shadow, Woody's slender body melted more and more into the darkness, as if one with the shadow, disappearing on the wicker chair together with his body.

"Shadow Ambush": Countless training in dark dungeons will allow you to understand the most suitable position to hide yourself in the shadows under the firelight. Your sneak judgment in the shadows will be +5. When you attack an enemy who is defenseless against you, an additional 1 will be added.

times (+1) the current basic damage. If the attack is on a critical location, the basic damage will be doubled (+2).

"What they are afraid of is not the shadows that can be seen everywhere, but us who appear in the shadows without knowing when - "Kingslayer" Gilman"

Shadow Ambush is the main source of output for Shadow Snake School demon hunters in the early stage, combined with the 2D4 damage of ordinary daggers.

As long as it hits a vital point, even a warrior like him in the early stage who has the specialty of "tenacious and unyielding" to increase his health will be hated on the spot.

Shadow Ambush seems to be similar to the Rogue's "Backstab", but Woody knows that Shadow Ambush has a much wider range of uses than the Rogue's Backstab.

Although many players will subconsciously associate it with another professional rogue in "Saint" when they first come into contact with this school of thought.

But as Woody, who had senior experience in the Shadow Snake School in his previous life, he can say without hesitation that although they look the same, the core is completely different.

Have you ever seen a rogue whose main weapon is a one-handed snake-headed sword that is almost two meters long? Or have you seen a professional assassin who casually lifted off his hood and just started doing it?

The former is the "recommended" professional weapon of the Shadow Snake School, and the latter is the move made by the famous demon hunter mentor in the school when he assassinated the king of a certain country. It was this CG that made Woody choose the Shadow Snake School.

Although in Grandy's world, the Shadow Snake School has withered away, and there are not even one demon hunter left in the school.

but……

It is our duty to recast the glory of the Shadow Snake!

The young man in the darkness opened his eyes that were like the vertical pupils of snakes. Without hesitation, he put his feet on the ground and stood up to leave the alchemy room where he had been staying for several days.

After all, under the cover of the shoulder-length black hair on his back, the itching emanating from the proliferating yellowish white pustules was already like a ray on his back, like a sword hanging from his neck.

But when he was about to walk out of the alchemy room, Woody took out a black ribbon from the pocket of his black trousers that was not too long, but was enough to cover his eyes.

The reason why demon hunters are disliked and feared by ignorant people.

Part of it is precisely because of these eyes that are so different from ordinary people and no different from monsters.

Only then did they confirm what the sorcerers said.

Demon hunters are a group of out-and-out mutant monsters, aberrations resurrected on the corpses of human children.

Although Asenlandt is far more liberal than Grandi, he still wants to avoid controversy.

Woody specially asked the butler to bring a black and gray ribbon from a clothing and accessories store in the city that was specially designed to cover his eyes but not block his vision too much.

In addition to being the most widely used bedding, ribbons are also used by some nobles to cover eye scars.

There is also a small number of people who will cover their expressions during negotiations so that the other party cannot see his intentions from their eyes.

Woody, who tied a ribbon and tied a knot behind his head, felt that the world had lost a lot of color and turned into a gray-white color like an old camera.

This kind of sense is more exciting than in the game. What you see in the corner of your eye is no longer light, but heavy shadows.

Making him more comfortable with the shadow.

It also made Woody, who originally just wanted to use ribbons, feel that if he had the opportunity to change to a "wonder" quality ribbon, it seemed to be a good choice.

Push the door open and go out.

Seeing the bright light again, Woody didn't feel any discomfort or dazzle at all, and his body steadily stepped up the stone stairs step by step.

But what Woody didn't expect was that it was already the night of the third day.

Groups of maids and waiters came and went in the hall, carrying exquisite silver plates.

"Who are you entertaining?"

In Woody's memory, it seems that it is only so grand during major festivals every year, but there are still a few days until the "Harvest Festival", so logically it won't be so soon.

He grabbed a maid and asked.

The maid looked at the blindfolded young man with pity and said softly, adding a touch of weakness to his immature face.

"Master Woody, my wife ordered us to prepare it. I heard that many big shots in the city are coming today."

"As for more, I don't know."

Let go of the maid who doesn't know much about the inside story.

Woody had some doubts after hearing this, but it seemed to have nothing to do with him and he didn't think much about it.

But even so, Woody still heard the origins of the guests at this banquet from the shouts of the maids, waiters, and butlers on the way back to his room.

"The Rutov family."

This term made Woody's right hand hesitate slightly as he was about to open the door to his room.

In his memory, Rutov, like Edith, also had the title of viscount granted by the Kingdom of Baviallo.

And the industry he is engaged in is all alcoholic products.

It's just that most of the wines that Edith specializes in are low- to medium-priced wines, while Rutov specializes in pure wines with a better and more delicate taste, specially made for the nobles and nobles to taste.

The two companies rarely met in sales channels, and the high and low sales channels of alcohol made Rutov always look down on Edith.

Not to mention that the Rutov family came here and came to visit.

Then the purpose of their coming here is...

Woody thought for a moment and thought about it.

Finally, he let go of the door handle and turned towards the other corridor leading to the study.

Hopefully his guess is wrong...

Under the ribbon, the boy's eyes gradually became sharper.
