Chapter 32: Master Onemius's Reward
"This, how is it possible!"
Ivan's face turned pale.
What's going on?
Just when he was talking nonsense, Jiang Zheng had already rushed towards him, and before he could react, he put the dagger on his neck!
"You...... Nicholas! Teacher Roande hasn't shouted to start yet! You broke the rules! You shameless, dirty, and despicable! You don't have chivalry! You don't deserve to be a thief! Ivan scolded.
"I'm sorry, we're not knights, we're thieves."
Jiang Zheng sneered, and a trace of cold pity appeared on his face: "From the moment Luo Ande threw the dagger at us, the battle has already begun!" In the world of thieves, there is no justice! Not prepared! There is no such thing as a fair duel! You...... Lost! If this is a real fight, then you ...... It's dead! ”
Lost!
Ivan lost!
His face was extremely ugly, and after three days of practicing day and night, and spending a lot of money to hire a beginner thief to spar, he was just to defeat Nicholas today and regain his name on the first day!
But he actually lost, and he lost without even making a move!
He is not reconciled, not at all!
"Nicholas!" He let out a loud shout, suddenly threw away the wooden dagger, picked up his pair of excellent quality hundred refining daggers, and rushed towards Jiang Zheng.
As soon as you make a move, it is the thief's signature skill:
Shadow Strike!
It's very fast!
I have to say that Ivan is indeed a very talented thief, and his physical fitness is much better than Jiang Zai's, and he is very fast.
Those pairs of excellent quality daggers are like two poisonous snakes that show their fangs, this is to take Jiang Zheng's life! Without mercy!
It happened so suddenly that even Roander didn't have time to react.
Of course, he didn't intend to stop it, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Because as Jiang Zai said, thieves are not knights, there are not so many rules and regulations, even victory is not the criterion for judging them, their only goal is to achieve their goal!
As long as the goal can be achieved, any rules can be challenged, and any law can be trampled on!
Of course, Roander would not be willing to let either of these two geniuses die in a small test, so the moment Ivan picked up the dagger, he was ready to strike at any moment.
It's just a battle between two thieves' apprentices, and he could stop it at any time, at least not let them die.
Jiang Zai's reaction was quick.
Tong Zitang has fought hundreds of battles, and his reflexes are definitely stronger than most thieves in this world. At the moment when Ivan made a move, he had already made a move.
In an extremely short moment, two wooden daggers blocked Ivan's Hundred Refining Daggers.
"Parry!"
But then there was the sound of stabbing, these two wooden daggers were of average material, and they couldn't stop the hundred refining daggers produced by the dwarven forgers of Iron Furnace Castle, and they were quickly cut off.
Jiang Zheng, it's dangerous!
At this moment, Roander was ready to make a move.
However, in the next moment, Jiang Zai's body suddenly deviated, avoiding Ivan's attack, blocking one belt with both hands, using his strength to eliminate Ivan's speed and strength invisibly, and then made a mistake with both hands, and grabbed the white blade empty-handed!
It's Tai Chi!
Although Jiang Zheng is not skilled enough, it is enough to deal with Ivan's classmates!
Immediately after, he swung the dagger of Hundred Refinements and stabbed at Ivan in an instant.
"Shadow Attack!"
This time, Jiang Zai didn't keep his hand.
Since Ivan really wanted to kill himself, there was no need for him to keep his hands. Even if he killed Ivan, no one could say anything, it was not his fault.
"Bang!"
Suddenly, a figure rushed to Jiang Zheng's side, and before he could react, the dagger in his hand was already gone, and fell into the other party's hand.
"Disarm!"
This is the classic skill of the thief, Jiang Zheng recognized it instantly, and at the same time recognized the person who made the shot:
"Roand!"
Jiang Zai hurriedly took a few steps back, regretting in his heart.
Since Roander intervened, it would have been impossible to kill Ivan. Luo Ander is a mid-level thief, his strength is really strong, he is too fast, and he has too many thief skills.
Jiang Zai knows very well that even if all the hole cards are out, he may not be Roand's opponent, unless he is surprised.
If you want to defeat Roande head-to-head, unless he breaks through one after another and advances to the fourth layer of the day after tomorrow, there is no hope.
Ivan was covered in a cold sweat and his legs trembled!
He has always been full of confidence, feeling that he started early, and he started learning thief skills as early as a month ago, and he will definitely be able to defeat Jiang Zheng.
As a result, he didn't expect that even if he sneaked attacked, he would not be Jiang Zai's opponent.
The murderous intent that Jiang Zheng revealed just now, the cold eyes and the blade that flickered with cold light, really frightened him.
He knew that if it wasn't for Luo Ande to stop him, Jiang Zheng would really kill him, he had already turned into a corpse!
Fear, fear!
Trembling!
"Nicholas is right, since you have chosen the profession of thief, you have thrown away all your previous ideas. Ivan, your father was a knight of the kingdom, but you are not. Also, it's important to remember that the Royal Assassins of Lordaeron encourage competition, but they must not kill anyone! ”
Luo Ande glanced at Jiang Zheng and Ivan, and then said coldly: "Now, I will teach you the core skills of thieves: stealth, and you can only use it as long as you are in a stealth state...... Ambush, muffled, and several other skills. These skills are difficult, and I will explain and demonstrate them to you carefully. ”
For the next two hours, Roande repeatedly explained and demonstrated, because it involved the shadow plane, which was very difficult.
Thieves are a profession that lurks in the shadows.
The thief's energy comes from his own body and spirit, which is internal energy.
In addition, the thief must use shadow energy, so that he can enter the stealth state, use the power of the shadow plane to cover his tracks, and complete a series of skills.
These skills are so difficult that even after two hours of practice, Ivan is completely unable to stealth.
This is a dividing line.
Only those who can successfully stealth can be qualified to become an official thief. But most of the so-called thieves in this world can't perceive the shadow plane, can't use their own energy to mobilize the power of the shadow plane, and have been thieves apprentices all their lives.
Don't look at Ivan is very talented, if you want to successfully complete the stealth, you can't do it in a month or two.
Luo Ander has been observing Jiang Zheng and found that Jiang Zheng is just a comparison, and it seems that even Ivan is inferior. He knew that if he wanted to learn to "sneak" in just two hours, it was really difficult for a strong man. It is said that even Master Onegius took ten days to succeed.
This speed is not even inferior to Edwin Van Cleef and Madias Shore in Stormwind!
"Alas, it seems that no one will be able to get Master Onejuus's reward." Roander sighed softly.
