Chapter 44: No Thief in the World

Chapter 44: No Thief in the World

"It's okay. I'll ask him to come and apologize to you. He's our brother. It's just a misunderstanding." Nie Wen looked at Lu Hao with a strange expression after hearing the name.

"Do you know each other?" Come to think of it, no matter what you do, there is an organization. In reality, I am the one who provides protection for third-party practitioners, and I rely on them for my livelihood.

"We are elementary school classmates." Nie Wen said embarrassedly. After all, it was not a good profession and she felt a little lacking in confidence when she said it.

"So we knew each other since childhood."

"Fortunately, my classmates and I are still in a small team now."

........................

After a while, a thief with a rat-like face came over. This was the one that Ma Yingjie only had time to see from behind. He was wearing tattered leather armor, and looked like a Beggar Gang disciple.

"Brother Shadow, I'm sorry, I didn't know you knew our leader. Since you are her friend, you are our friend. If you need any help in the future, just tell me and I will go through fire and water for you." He glanced timidly at Nie Wen, who had her eyebrows raised, and said to Lu Hao in a flattering manner.

"Okay, you continue to work. Tell the brothers and sisters that they must never take action against Yingzi when they see him in the future, otherwise I will kick him out of the team." Nie Wen said seriously, with quite the aura of a leader.

"Yes, Sister Wen." Nie Wen agreed respectfully, turned around and gave a flattering look at Ma Yingjie, then flashed into the crowd.

"Now Xiaoliu has apologized to you. Our misunderstanding has been resolved." Nie Wen is worthy of being a gangster since he was young, and he speaks carelessly.

"Okay, now just give me back the staff and you can go back to your work." Ma Hao was not interested in nagging her. It was only natural to return something that had been stolen, provided that the other party was willing to return it to the original owner.

Nie Wen pouted, looking unhappy, opened the trading menu and applied to trade with Ma Yingjie.

System prompt: Player Xiadao Mantianfei has requested to trade with you. Please ask if you accept.

"accept."

As Ma Yingjie silently said "accept" in his heart, a trading panel appeared out of thin air in front of him, and his lovely Devil May Cry Staff was lying alone in the trading column.

After quickly confirming the transaction, Ma Yingjie turned off the light of the Devil May Cry Staff, then held it in his hand and caressed it lovingly, just like he caressed Nie Wen yesterday.

The level does not meet the requirement and the attributes of the equipment cannot be activated. It is basically just an ornamental item. If you have to say its use, you can use it to hit monsters to force them to lose some blood.

"Hey, don't you have anything to say to me?" Nie Wen was very unhappy when she saw that Lu Hao left her aside after he got the Devil May Cry Staff. If she had known earlier, she would never have given it to him so easily.

"Of course." Ma Yingjie continued to look at the Devil May Cry Staff affectionately, stroking the skull on top of the staff and said, "You can continue to pursue your third profession."

"Hmph, you better be careful, or even your underwear will be stolen." Nie Wen stamped her feet in anger, and suddenly her eyes rolled around, revealing a cunning look, and then she returned to her angry look and said to Lu Hao. As a double thief in the real game, Nie Wen certainly knows how likely it is for a thief to succeed in stealing. Now the player level is generally low, and the success rate is only 1% to 2%. Lu Hao's recent series of thefts is purely because his character value is at the lowest point.

A thief needs to change his job at level 2 to get the passive skill Blessing of the God of Thieves. It increases the success rate of theft by %. However, the top players are warriors, mages, archers, etc., and there are very few thieves. This is also because the system lowers the attack of thieves to take care of players of other professions.

The success rate of a low-level thief stealing from a high-level player will be greatly reduced, while the success rate of a high-level thief stealing from a low-level player will be increased. High-level thieves generally do not steal from low-level players. After all, even low-level green equipment is not worth much money, and is not as valuable as a high-level blue equipment.

"If you dare, be careful or I'll have a real-life PK with you." Ma Hao's eyes widened with anger, and he waved the Devil May Cry Staff in his hand, attracting all the players passing by to come over.

"I'd love to see for myself how powerful the Cold-Blooded Dragon King is." Nie Wen was unwilling to fall behind.

Seeing the tense situation between the two, some players whispered, "Look, there's going to be another fun thing to watch."

Passerby A: "Hey, this man is really cowardly. He actually wants to hit a woman."

Passerby B: "Can you please open your eyes and see clearly? This man is dressed in cloth and holding a staff. He is obviously a wizard, and this woman is a thief. Thieves and assassins are the natural enemies of wizards. This guy dares to challenge a thief without even opening a magic shield. You still call him a coward?"

Passerby C: "What do you know? A mage can catch up with a thief? Have some common sense, okay? This guy must have had something stolen by this female thief. Then this man wanted to buy it back. The female thief asked for a high price, so the two of them broke down in the negotiation."

Passerby A and Passerby B both showed contempt: "Tsk..."

"I believe you won't." Ma Yingjie said with a bright smile. Although it was uglier than crying, it was still a smile.

"Let's continue our cooperation next time." Nie Wen smiled meaningfully at Lu Hao, turned around and walked out of the crowd. Before leaving, she did not forget to cast a theft spell on a well-dressed warrior player.

The theft failed.

Hearing the system prompt, Nie Wen curled her lips helplessly. There was nothing she could do since her skill proficiency was low and the chance of failure was too high.

"Don't run. You dare to steal from me? Don't you know that my ID is a miser?" After receiving the system prompt, the player who was stolen immediately reacted and chased after the thief, but he was destined to not catch up with the thief. This is the sadness of the early melee profession.

Thieves are very smart. They never go after assassins and thieves who are about the same speed as themselves. They only target mages, warriors and knights.

In the early stage, warriors had no useful skills and were unable to respond effectively to thieves, a profession known for its speed. They could only watch the thieves escape and were helpless.

After changing jobs at level 40, melee classes will learn skills to restrict enemy movements. The warrior's skill is to bind, while the knight's skill is to stun. In fact, the effects are the same, but the methods of expression are different.

After all professional players have reached level 40, the rogue's favorite is the mage. Of course, not all of them are happy, the water mage has a freezing skill, the effect is not worse than the warrior's binding and the knight's stun effect, and it is also a long-range one.

"Damn, I was robbed too. The Goblin Sword I just bought is lost. Damn, none of the rogues have good stuff." A player suddenly let out a pig-slaughtering howl and followed the warrior to chase after Nie Wen.

There was a commotion among the crowd, and the players who were watching the fun checked their items one after another to see if they were missing. Although the system would prompt if something was stolen, with so many people around and watching the fun, few people would pay attention.

"Damn, I was robbed too, but I was lucky, nothing was stolen." A knight with a mustache said after surviving the robbery. Looking at his small stature, he is just suitable to be a dwarf. I don't know what great wish he has to become a knight. Knights usually give people the impression of being tall and upright, and they also have a strong sense of justice.

"I want to duel with you!" What a heroic sentence, which has become the supreme honor in the hearts of many knight players.

"Me too, me too." After a burst of exclamations, about a dozen players were robbed, of which three were successful, and the remaining ten or so were successful. Seeing that the odds were not high, I actually encountered it twice in a row. This is not bad luck. Why haven't I won any prizes when buying lottery tickets?

Suddenly, he connected these stolen players with Nie Wen's last words and her gloating look, and Lu Hao realized that he had been used as a gun by Nie Wen for a while. It was unforgivable that Nie Wen used him as a gun without his consent.

Life is so tragic and meaningless. It is infuriating to see thieves. They are all worthless. No matter whether they are men or women, they will all be dragged out and shot.

Leaving the rioting crowd, Ma Yingjie looked around, fortunately no thieves followed him. It seemed that Nie Wen was just talking, and did not really send his younger brother to lighten his burden.

After reopening the communicator to receive the program, the message from the withered redbud flower immediately popped up. I exchanged RMB and waited for more than two hours, plus the withered redbud flower said it would take an hour, so the time she stood her up was only one and a half hours. The withered redbud flower didn't send many text messages, only seven or eight. Ma Yingjie read them one by one. There were many violent words in them, and many of them were swear words. It can be said to be a summary of the essence of thick black theory.

I looked at the last message, which read: "Come to the skill hall to find me as soon as you are done. I am practicing skill proficiency in skill hall numbered 10010."

"Excuse me, big brother, where is the skill hall? Please tell me." Ma Hao scanned the surrounding environment and finally locked his target on the NPC vendor selling barbecue on the street.

"Would you like to buy some barbecue?" The NPC vendor looked at Lu Hao expressionlessly. The unique aroma of barbecue stimulated Lu Hao's olfactory system and aroused his taste buds. It really was the case.

"Not buying."

"Then I don't know." The vendor seemed to be very regretful and continued to string some meat skewers in his hand.

"How can you know?"

"Let's buy some barbecue first. This is authentic homemade pure donkey meat."

After I paid for a string of them, I asked again, and the answer was, "It's in the Yanwu District on East Street. When you get there, you'll see the biggest square in the city."
