Chapter 272: Warm-up Match (12)
【Recruitment】Set sail for a new round of recruitment!!!!
Xue Bot didn't know what was going on, but the people around him saw it very clearly, and at the moment when the swordsman shifted his attention, Joey suddenly jumped up from behind him, and the dagger hilt in his hand smashed heavily on the back of the swordsman's head. And then everyone only felt that there was a flower in front of them, and Joey disappeared again.
"Good skills."
Shearer narrowed his eyes, then turned to the chauvin, who had been silent next to him.
"What do you think?"
"Okay."
Although Chauvin did not give Shearer the answer he expected, but when he heard this sentence, Shearer laughed happily, he reached out and patted Shavin on the shoulder, and then turned around again and looked at the man sitting not far from his side, and when he noticed Shearer's gaze, the man's face showed a trace of iron and embarrassment.
"Yes, yes, Captain Fogg, what do you think?"
"This ......... This ..............."
Hearing Shearer's inquiry, Ferg's face showed anger and embarrassment, but he couldn't attack, he could only twist his face, barely squeeze out a smile, and nodded at Shearer, but he couldn't say a word, because he didn't know how to say it.
This Fogg is the current leader of the Macbeth Mercenary Regiment. As long as he knows his status, it is not difficult to understand why he is so embarrassed at this moment——— because of the power struggle of the Macbeth mercenary group, Anne was purged from the mercenary group as a failed representative, and it was Rhodes who accepted her. After that, three of Anne's friends and subordinates followed her out of the Macbeth Mercenary Regiment and into Starlight. At that time, Ferg didn't care about this, in his opinion, although Anne had some strength, her personality was too troublesome. In addition, simple girls don't hide things like many people.,Whether you like it or hate it, it's on your face.。 Staying in the mercenary group is not conducive to the stability and unity of the mercenary group, so since Starlight is willing to pay, they are naturally willing to send her to another place. As for those rookies? Who cares about them?
In the eyes of Fogg at the time, these rookies were not worth mentioning at all, but now ............ He only felt a burning pain on his face.
In fact, before the start of this warm-up match, the internal atmosphere of the Macbeth mercenary group was already very embarrassing.
Annie, Lando, Joey.
This is all from within the Macbeth mercenary group, and many people know these things very well, but they were also like Ferg at the beginning, and they felt that these people couldn't make any waves, so they didn't care at all. But now......... Looking at Joey's performance, Fogg only felt that he was so depressed that he was almost about to vomit out a mouthful of blood.
Although this was only a few minutes, Fogg had clearly discovered that the current Joey had fully possessed the level of a first-class thief, even if he was the current chief thief in his group, he was not as good as him in terms of concealing traces! What's more, this kid actually got Chauvin's approval!
Don't look at chauvin, only one said, "It's okay." But Fogg understands very well, and being able to say this sentence from the mouth of this big man is already quite recognized. You must know that even the chief thief in his own regiment, in front of Sha Wen, he only gave a "waste" evaluation.
Now Fogg only felt a burning pain in his face, and he knew how his Macbeth mercenary group would be ridiculed after this battle. Three of the four people they were discarded as waste have now become powerful elites......... Oh, by the way, I heard that the little girl of Labis is now an alchemist in her own right, and all the potions of envy and jealousy in the Starlight Mercenary Regiment are all from her......... Damn it, why didn't that little girl show such ability when she was in her own group? …,
Without thinking too much, Fogg also understands that after this battle, his Macbeth mercenary group will definitely become the target of ridicule from others, and he will become a white-minded leader who has no eyes and no eyes and can't see the potential of others. Otherwise, why are these people mediocre in the Macbeth mercenary group except for Anne, but as soon as they run to the starlight, they become so powerful? Look at Joey's performance now, the few people in the white-robed mercenary group can't find his shadow at all, let alone them, even Ferg who is sitting on it overlooking the ring, now he can't see where Joey is hiding, in just a few months, a guy who is just a young rookie in everyone's hearts, and now he has turned around and become so strong?
But what Fogg is worried about now is not that he will be ridiculed for such trivial things as being blind and not knowing people......... That's right, for the mercenary group, there is no important face that can be protected at the cost of life, let alone a person like Ferg who became the leader of the mercenary group with the help of dishonorable means, and the cheekiness of hòu can be no different from those low-level scumbags who post stolen posts in Baidu and claim to have obtained the author's authorization. In his opinion, this level of ridicule is a pain in the face, and the pain is over.
If that's all there is to it, Fogg isn't worried at all. But there was another thing he had to worry about——— and that was that it would have a very negative impact on his mercenary group. Mercenaries are also human beings, and they naturally expect themselves to grow and be strong. And for them, a powerful mercenary leader is not only a supporter of the mercenary group, but also their leader. Everyone expects to be stronger, not weaker, under the leadership of the regimental commander. If he was really given such a blinding name, then Ferg could be sure that there would be no mercenaries in the future who would dare to join his Macbeth mercenary group. Not only that, but even in the current Macbeth mercenary group, there may be some people who have not been taken seriously who will choose to leave here.
That's what worries and worries Ferg the most. 、
At this moment, he looked at Xue Bot in the ring, and couldn't help gritting his teeth.
What the hell are you bastards! The other party is just a rookie, so you can't even take him?
"What are you thinking, that guy is just a rookie!!"
At this moment, Xue Bot naturally couldn't hear Ferge's complaints, but even so, he still gritted his teeth and shouted angrily at his subordinates, and at the same time waved his hand behind him, signaling the two mercenary group members who were originally staying on the scene to also come to the stage together. This action immediately caused a wave of boos, but Shebot didn't care about it at the moment. Only then did he realize that the kid who seemed to him to be just a newcomer was so difficult to deal with. He and his subordinates had swept almost the entire ring, but they still didn't see Joey's shadow.
Does this thief really have such a great ability?
Shebot faltered.
At this moment, Joey is still hiding in the dead corner, secretly watching the people in front of him without moving.
A thief, you have to endure loneliness, and if you are not absolutely sure, you must never make a move, otherwise, you will be unlucky.
This is what Joey learned from Phantom Space.
He had never experienced the horror of loneliness as deeply as he did at that time, and there was a time when Joey felt as if he was the only one left in the entire world, and all the people around him had disappeared without a trace. That feeling of panic and loneliness almost broke Joey, and even the assassination that had worried him was incomparably happy in Joey's eyes at that time. He would rather have a shiny knife plunge straight into his body than go crazy alone in the boundless solitude here. …,
But even so, he persevered.
A first-class thief must not only learn to accept loneliness and endure loneliness, but also learn to merge with loneliness and completely erase his sense of existence, even if he stands there, as long as he does not take the initiative to show up, no one will be aware of his existence, which is the highest state of a thief.
Of course, the current Joey has not yet reached this realm, but for him, just the skills he has learned and comprehended now are enough to deal with these mercenaries.
The second person.
At this moment, Joey had already focused on the second target, he moved slowly again, came to the other party's back, his hands under the cloak held the dagger behind his back, carefully looked and looked at the mercenary who was facing away from him, and then, Joey took a deep breath, leaped up, and the dagger handle in his hand flipped over, straight to the back of the opponent's head.
"Ding!!"
And at this moment, a shining long sword suddenly flung from the side, blocking Joey's attack.
Failed?
When Joey turned his head, he saw Shebault's smug face.
Finally caught by me!!
As a mercenary leader, Xue Bote's strength is certainly not weak, although he has been in vain in the ring before, but this does not mean that Xue Bot is really stupid enough to let the other party attack him. From the previous battle, Shebot had already sensed the other party's methods, so he deliberately let the remaining two mercenaries also come into the field, in order to increase the bait and lure Joey to make a move. On the surface, the four of them were very scattered, but if you look closely, you will find that no matter how the leader of the white-robed mercenary group walks, he always keeps a considerable distance from the other three, so that he can detect Joey's actions and react at the first time. Of course, if Joey had sneaked up on him, then Shebot would have been finished. But he still decided to do it, after all, the current situation is not in his favor, there is still a chance to bet, three-quarters and one-quarter, if Joey doesn't do it to himself, then he will make a lot of money!
I have to say that Shebot was right.
Although he has been training in the phantom space for many days and his skills have also improved, Joey is still too lacking in combat experience after all, and he did not choose to attack Xue Bote, it is precisely because he is a rookie who is playing tricks in his heart. In the minds of these rookie mercenaries, the regiment commanders are the most powerful, so if you look for them, it will be the most difficult and the most likely to fail, so it is better to start with those who are slightly weaker, but more certain.
In Joey's opinion, this kind of thinking is okay, but now, this kind of thinking has put him in a difficult situation.
Blocking Joey's surprise attack, Xue Bot did not stop, on the contrary, he swung his long sword and directly pressed up, and at the same time, the other three had already turned around and brandished their weapons to form an encirclement network, directly surrounding Joey.
And by the time Joey reacted, he was already under siege...... )
