Chapter 45: The Thief Is Hard to Defend

Roland decided to strike preemptively.

Now that it has been determined that Richero's mayor wants to kill him, Roland must not sit still and wait for death.

No matter what, at least get the first move.

Of course, such behavior will undoubtedly expose Roland to some risks. Because Roland does not know to what extent the city lord of Richero knows about him, a rash attack may lead to him falling into a well-arranged trap.

Although Roland has the boss template, this does not mean that Roland will not be killed instantly.

Because he has never been attacked by a sneak attack so far, Roland doesn't know if he has a system to calculate the damage according to the algorithm in the game or something else.

In the Land of the Gods, all undetected attacks are regarded as sneak attacks. The floating damage defaults to the maximum value, ignoring half of the defense power, and then multiplied by a coefficient of 2 to 6 according to the level of the sneak attack characteristic.

The main reason why the Brilliant Hand that Roland met before traveling through time was able to wipe out their team by himself was that all attacks of the Brilliant Hand must be sneak attacks. In addition, in conjunction with the Master of Assassination and Legendary Weakness Strike 3

With a damage coefficient of +6=9, Roland, as an off-tank, was instantly killed with an elbow attack and a backstab...even the Glory only had one stack.

Although normal Rogues do not have this level of terrible damage, if they perform well, they can still kill enemies across levels instantly, especially when facing enemies below Gold level.

This is also the reason why there are still a large number of stealth professions in this world where the professions with the main perception attribute are biological sons.

According to Roland, there are only three professions in this world: gentlemen who cast spells, cannon fodder who protects gentlemen, and thugs who assassinate gentlemen.

Although with Roland's perception attribute, ordinary stalkers will be discovered by him when they get close to him - but in fact, if Roland is allowed to assassinate himself, it is completely possible with his current level.

Since the perception attribute can be used to counter stealth, the same principle applies. There must be some kind of stealth technique that can counter the perception attribute. There is no absolutely invincible technique in this world, even if it is the Dusk Familiar who has all kinds of undeadness that are difficult to solve.

People also have to die one day.

But Roland has sufficient confidence in his actions.

The city of Richero is not unfamiliar to Roland. Roland once lived here for half a month, and also entered Orwell's private bedroom. He was fully aware of the building structure inside and the triggering conditions of some traps.

To Roland, this secret fortress that could easily hunt down Silver-level stalkers was like a fishing net, full of loopholes——

Roland glanced at the distribution of patrolling guards from a distance, shook his head, and gave up his plan to break in from the front.

Each patrol guard must have three of his colleagues in his field of vision at the same time, and each person is stared at by at least two people. They are like iron powder scattered in a magnetic field, loosely distributed around the city lord's palace.

Their positions are not very dense. If an experienced stalker looks at them, they can see the gaps at a glance.

But Roland knew that it was not a design flaw, but an obvious trap.

Precisely because the loopholes in this seemingly perfect surveillance system are very deliberate and obvious, stalkers will inevitably be more vigilant when crossing these blind spots. Be alert and pay attention to the surrounding environment.

But these stalkers didn't know that Count Orwell wanted them to do just that.

Once they look at their surroundings attentively, they will be fooled.

Druid's runes are carved in some dark places, hiding them with thick shadows, and people can trigger these runes as long as they glance at them.

Once a certain number of runes are triggered continuously in a short period of time, it can be concluded that this person has bad intentions - after all, a person with no evil intentions will not keep looking at those dark corners where people can hide.

In order to prevent them from inadvertently offending anyone, they will not be harmed in any way. Instead, they will be lost directly into the sight of those patrols.

This is a great magic called Mystery. This magic does not belong to the magic of control, so no matter how high the will attribute is, it is still meaningless when facing the test of this magic.

It can be said that among the magical types of protection and sealing, Mystic Lock can be regarded as the highest level magical spell.

Although the judgment conditions of the Mystery Lock are extremely harsh, once certain harsh cycle conditions are reached, the Mystery Lock will be established on its own, causing the existence inside to be sealed inside indefinitely - unless there is a problem with the stability of the Mystery Lock.

, the cycle is broken. The talents inside will be released. Although there is a slight difference in scale, this magical spell is actually exactly the same in nature as the oak mystery lock that trapped the disaster beast Del Ramos.

And because the mystery lock itself has no lethality. It is just to lead people to another path, so it will not give those infiltrators an ominous premonition. If those infiltrators do not have any malicious intentions, they will not be killed directly.

die.

Although this is not as threatening as a simple lethal trap, it can save Count Orwell a lot of trouble. Most people in this world are more troublesome to kill than not to kill.

However, Roland knew that the mystery lock set up by Count Orwell had a fatal flaw - that is, it could only be triggered visually.

Roland remembered that there were a total of 220 runes on the outer wall, and there were more than 500 runes inside the house. It can be said that if no one is with them, anyone will get lost instantly and be led to a certain place like a puppet.

A specific location within the monitoring range. But the thing about these nearly 800 runes is that they can only be triggered by sight.

Orwell himself was naturally aware of this flaw. Therefore, he specially designed the internal structure of his home to be very complicated, and also arranged some relatively retro traps.

But his defense facilities obviously ignored the setting of "house thief"——

In the entire Richero, except Orwell himself, no one knew the topography of his home better than Roland.

Roland closed his eyes, not even using his peripheral vision to confirm, and moved forward quickly based on experience.

From a dark corner, he entered the patrol's blind spot. Those patrols obviously knew the characteristics of Orwell's house. Although they saw Roland deliberately walking into the dark alley, they didn't pay attention.

They knew that Roland would come back sooner or later.

What Roland has to do is very simple. He is to kidnap Count Orwell and then investigate whether he really has anything to do with the devil.

Of course, it is impossible to assassinate Earl Orwell.

He was acting on the orders of the Marquis of Saya. As long as the matter did not get too serious, the Marquis of Saya would be the one to resist. Everyone knew that this man was under the command of the Marquis of Saya. Even Count Orwell himself could not express his hatred.

Focus on Roland.

But if Roland really kills him, the nature of the matter will change.

The death of a noble will usher in a series of huge changes. No matter what happens in the end, the interests of a large number of people will be affected in the early stages of the changes.

When that time comes, someone must take the blame.

If Marquis Saya was not stupid, it would be impossible for him to jump out. The only person who could take the blame would be Roland himself.

And Roland is considered a foreigner after all.

Unless Roland wants to muddy the waters, he absolutely cannot harm Earl Orwell. Even if something happens to him, Roland must protect him. (To be continued.)
