Chapter 650: The Late Duel—The Thief Mentor (Part 1)
|i^_!~;
"You're finally here."
Today there are very few novice players. Players who have transferred to level 10 have basically disappeared. In addition, the profession of thieves is not very popular. Therefore, the thieves transfer hall is very deserted. Chu Rui just entered the door and heard the same voice as before. The cold voice was none other than the thief's career-changing mentor.
"..."
Chu Rui didn't answer. He walked straight over and faced the seemingly ordinary old man face to face.
"That's right. It's almost the third time now. Even though we are in Taga City, I have heard a lot of rumors about you. To be able to achieve today's achievements, it seems that your experience should be able to be written into a biography."
The thief mentor was still leaning on the recliner, and his tone was very lazy.
"Teacher, I'm here to fulfill the original agreement."
Chu Rui said lightly. He took out the Forbidden Blade and Dragon Slaying Dagger from his backpack and held them in his hand.
"What a rare magic weapon. I didn't expect that I could still see the legendary dragon-slaying dagger at such an old age." The thief teacher glanced at the two daggers in Chu Rui's hands with emotion.
"Let's go to the battle field." Shaking his head, the thief mentor got up and took Chu Rui to a small battle field at the rear.
"Remember what I told you when you changed jobs. You are a thief... Even though your strength is changing. Even though your equipment is being updated. Even though your skills are being strengthened. But... Essentially, you are just a thief. There are many answers to how to become a successful thief. I believe you also have your own answer. Here, I will not go into detail about my own definition of a thief. However, this This battle is a battle about thieves. Even though the battle is about doing everything possible to win, I still want to restore the essence and fight."
"Restore the essence." Chu Rui couldn't help but ask. What does this mean?
"That's right. We don't use other complicated skills. We only use the most basic and essential skills of thieves. Gouge, Eviscerate, Sneak, Kick, Backstab. Also, take off all the equipment. Fight once in the most authentic way. This battle requires no consumption. It only requires one hit. If you hit the fatal position, you will win. If you hit the non-fatal position twice, you will also win."
The thief instructor calmly took out an inconspicuous black dagger and explained.
"Interesting." Such a novel battle is completely equivalent to killing in one blow in reality. This is a very memorable battle for Chu Rui.
"The battle will begin in one minute." The thief mentor played with the dagger in his hand and announced.
Chu Rui glanced at the dagger rotating in the hands of the thief mentor. Its flexibility was no less than his. Such terrifying control made Chu Rui have to be careful.
"Ding. Congratulations on triggering the hidden mission: The True Meaning of an Assassin."
"Ding. Due to special mission reasons, all the attributes of your equipment and props are invalid."
Two consecutive system prompts came, making Chu Rui mentally prepared.
Taking a deep breath, Chu Rui quickly calmed down. He was calm and calm.
Looking at the calm thief mentor in front of him, Chu Rui had no expression on his face. He waited for the one-minute countdown with no joy or sorrow in his heart.
5.4.3……
Countdown to three seconds.
Chu Rui suddenly changed his expression, turned around, and instantly turned on the phantom concealment and entered the stealth state.
"Oh……"
Seeing Chu Rui's actions, a faint smile appeared on the corner of the thief mentor's mouth. He also shook his body slightly and disappeared in place.
In an instant, there was not even a single ghost in the battle field.
Chu Rui held his breath, suppressed his heartbeat, and lowered his voice to a minimum. He moved slowly and paid close attention to whether there was anything below that might expose him. His eyes kept scanning around. Seeker The traces of the Thief Mentor.
A high-level thief not only makes no sound when lurking, but also acts like this. Some thieves make big steps and their heart beats violently while lurking. Especially the kind of thief who leaves a hole in his step and betrays himself with all his footprints. That's it. Idiot. Such an existence. Not to mention other people using probing techniques to find it. As long as a normal person can see it at a glance.
Chu Rui thinks that his lurking is very good, but he is not arrogant enough to think that there are no flaws at all. No one is perfect. Natural moves are not perfect and there are no flaws at all.
Without the existence of the Sky Eye, then everything can only be determined by one's own eyes, one's own experience, and one's own feelings to tell where the Thief Master is.
Chu Rui is not limited to the place where he is sneaking. He also does not rely on the edge to grope towards the thief mentor as usual. If you want to win by surprise, you must not take the usual path. Therefore, Chu Rui just goes straight. Walk through the center of the battle field. Such a route is not easy for the enemy to figure out. But on the other hand, if it is discovered, the enemy may attack from any direction in all directions. It is impossible to prevent it.
The steps are moving. It can really be regarded as "step by step".
Time passed by minute by minute. The stealth state was almost gone.
The thief is worthy of being a mentor. He is really watertight. The basics of footsteps and heartbeats are not exposed. Even the feeling of the human body blocking the airflow is completely covered, making Chu Rui unable to feel it.
Master. Real master.
Sneak attack. This probably won't work. Then the only option is to wait for the stealth to end before fighting again.
Chu Rui didn’t know how long the Thief Mentor’s stealth time was. So he had to wait.
It is undoubtedly difficult for such a high-level thief to expose a flaw. Even if there is a flaw, you still have to wonder whether he deliberately seduced you into being deceived.
Chu Rui's profession is a phantom thief. His profession is a hidden profession. His skills are strengthening skills. The phantom hide has a three-minute hiding time.
Standing in the center of the battle field, Chu Rui seemed to have assimilated with the world and turned into air. He just stood there, waiting for the appearance of the Thief Mentor.
"Shua..."
After waiting for more than two minutes, the effect of Phantom Concealment ended. Chu Rui revealed his figure. At the same time, Chu Rui also instantly felt the location of the Thief Mentor.
"call out……"
The body's extreme reaction. Chu Rui turned around and spun around. The dagger in his hand stabbed the thief mentor fiercely.
The thief mentor who did not expect Chu Rui to be behind him was also shocked. He also reacted instantly and made the same action as Chu Rui. He turned around and stabbed.
"clang……"
The daggers collided with each other. The powerful force caused sparks. Chu Rui's hand went numb. He did not expect that the old man had such great strength.
