119. Melancholy Rupee

The rupee was melancholy.

He was really, very melancholy.

He felt like a caged bird, and if he had just lost his freedom, he didn't really mind, at least it was ornamental, wasn't it? But the problem is that the perverted young man who has been equated with the devil in his eyes still keeps him running around with all kinds of excuses, and at the end of the day he feels like he is about to fall apart.

It wasn't that he didn't want to escape, but every time he moved, he was followed by two werewolves and two gray elves, which made his most proud speed impossible to use at all. The luckiest one was to successfully escape the surveillance of werewolves and gray elves by urinating and escaping, but he didn't expect to bump into another vigilant team head-on, so his fate can be imagined.

And now that he's gone deep into the wilderness and come to the Heavy Rock tribe, Ruby doesn't want to run away at all.

People are often so wonderful sometimes.

In the past, when someone was watching, they were desperately trying to escape; But now, when there is no one to monitor him, he doesn't want to run away, and even keeps trying to show his presence to prevent being abandoned as a useless prop.

At the end of the day, it's one reason.

Afraid.

On the outskirts of the Savage Lands, there were certainly many ways for Ruby to get back to the Trade Point, and he was familiar with how it was his territory. But once he went deep into the Savage Lands, the situation became completely different, and he was not familiar with it at all. Even his sense of direction was lost, and the mere issue of food supplies was enough to hold him back. What's more, there are all kinds of racial troops patrolling here in the Wild Lands, once his human identity is discovered. That is direct execution.

Ruby is a thief, a thief who is sneaking around from the bottom of society, and a thief who has experienced the coldness of the world and the coldness of the world.

So, he was afraid of death.

And he also fantasized that one day, he would be able to return to the Thieves' Guild in some kind of strong posture and teach a lesson to those who had underestimated him and bullied him.

So, he can't die.

Ruby sighed slightly, glanced at the setting sun, and jumped from one of the rooftops to the ground.

Tsuchiya is not high. It is only three or four meters away from the ground, which is nothing for any bronze-level person, but ordinary people will naturally make some slight noises when they land. But as a good thief, it is impossible to make such a sound, and almost every thief and assassin will have the agility of a cat, and Ruby is especially good at this.

The moment he landed, his leg muscles trembled slightly, and his body did not stand up straight immediately, but was a little half-bent. This caused him to leap and fall, and the concussive force generated by the ground was completely gone. If he wanted to, he could even run out of the jaw the moment he hit the ground, looking for a shadow spot to dodge.

From a very young age, Ruby knew that he was more agile than the average thief. Especially his hands. Not only dexterous, but also very stable, his adoptive father once said that this is a pair of hands that are perfect for killing. It's a pity that he died before he could cultivate him. This made Ruby waste the most suitable childhood for nurturing, which has to be said to be a pity.

A gray elf suddenly appeared in Ruby's sight.

He knew the elf. His name is Im, and he is an assassin.

Ruby has been under the guidance of the grey elf for a while, and he has grown very fast, and many of his skills are almost immediately learned, which is enough to prove that Ruby's talent in this area is indeed what his adoptive father expected of him. Of course, Ruby also knew very well that with the solitary and arrogant personality of the gray elves, he could not easily teach himself this, and this must have come from the leader of the slave catcher.

In addition to his gift of steady and dexterous hands, Ruby also had an almost unforgettable memory, so he remembered that the leader seemed to be named Andre.

Sand wolf. Andre.

It's a name that borders on legend in the Savage Lands - anyone who can survive in the Savage Lands for more than five years can be called legendary. And in the entire wilderness, there are only a few dozen people who can be called legendary slave hunters.

As a small person from the Thieves' Guild, Ruby naturally knew that there would be no free lunch in this world, so it was naturally impossible for this man named Andre to signal his men to train himself for no reason, and a little deeper speculated, Ruby felt that this might be the idea of the young man who looked no more than a few years older than him. At least this proves that in the eyes of the big man, he should still be very valuable, although Ruby himself doesn't know where his value is, why the big man cares about him.

But no matter what, Ruby knew that he could never be abandoned here, because he didn't want to die.

"Mr. Im." Ruby saluted the executioner, who was known for his indifference even in Andrei's team.

It's a pretty standard elven etiquette, a skill that Rupee has only learned in the past two days.

In the elven race with almost perverted demands, the etiquette of the gray elves has long been forgotten, but the arrogance of the elves has not been abandoned. Therefore, when Yimu saw that Ruby could make such a standard elven etiquette, and it was also a courtesy that represented the highest respect of the student to the tutor, no matter how cold and ruthless Yimu was, his eyes couldn't help but soften.

"Learn from that sycophant?" The gray elf Im spoke.

"Yes." Ruby nodded.

There was really nothing to hide from this, because since the goblin was released five days ago, it only took him one day to win the favor of the entire Chongyan tribe, and then it took another day to fight with the Northland barbarians and bear people. Only AndrΓ©'s former slave hunters were the most difficult to approach, and the goblin didn't make much progress in this regard, but he was also smart. Immediately shift your focus to Cecilia's.

After a few days, the goblin had taken on the form of Cecilia's faithful servant: he followed Cecilia every day. But this distance is kept very delicately, and it does not feel awkward and boring at all. Even the goblin always found ways to make some food that didn't seem very tasty very tasty, which even Sean praised.

It can be said that in just five days, this goblin has become the most popular figure among everyone in the entire tribe except for the members of Andre's old slave trapping team, and there are even faint signs of becoming the fifth core person in Sean's team. In this comparison, the two lizardmen who also surrendered their allegiance to Sean were much more clumsy, but the lizardman Ruby named Kruma had also met him once, and the most impressive thing about him was that it was indeed a very intelligent lizardman. Because learning the Grey Elf etiquette from the goblins was reminded by Krummah.

At the moment, it seems that Yim is indeed very useful.

"Let's go." Im didn't say anything more, instead turned and motioned for Ruby to follow.

As an assassin, Yimu is naturally much stronger than ordinary assassins and assassins because of the racial talent bonus of the gray elves, and the number of assassinations he has helped Andre block is at least hundreds, not counting those conspiracies that were discovered in advance. If Yimu is the second most powerful person in Andre's entire team, there will definitely be no objection. So of course, Yim also has the capital of arrogance, so when he was put in charge of mentoring Ruby at the beginning, and even asked him to teach him skills and knowledge wholeheartedly, Yimu was very unhappy.

Just in the subsequent mentoring process. It was only when he discovered that Ruby was indeed a very talented person that Yimu's mentality gradually changed.

There's no one who doesn't want to find a good apprentice and pass on the best of their life's work. Let him continue to carry it forward. Essentially, Im did see Ruby as his student. Otherwise, with the arrogance unique to the gray elves, how could they accept the etiquette of the rupee, which represented the student paying homage to the teacher?

Following behind Im, Ruby's heart was slightly curious.

Because something seems wrong with today's itinerary, right?

Follow the training that should be done next. He was supposed to have run for two hours near the Heavy Rock tribe to strengthen his stamina and learn how to regulate his breathing rhythm and other skills, and then use his breath to find the hidden Yimu in the dark night. Generally, after completing these two trainings, the sky is basically about to turn white, after a simple breakfast, there is more cruel combat training, that is the real knife to see blood, fists to see flesh, if it is not for Tini, the priest with a knife, I am afraid that every such combat training is enough for him to lie down for ten days and a half months.

Walking on the dark road, Ruby's breathing rhythm also began to soften, and this breath regulation he had learned from Yim also began to soften.

After a while, it was clear that Ruby was still walking, but if he didn't concentrate on perception alone, he would no longer be able to perceive his presence.

Im couldn't help but nod secretly, he had thought that it would take at least a week or so for Ruby to master this skill, but he didn't want to progress much faster than he expected. Although it is only in the early stages, it also means that Imu can already move on to the next step, and may be able to take advantage of this time to teach him this technique, as long as the rupee can successfully master it, then his aura will become weaker, and he will be able to conceal his aura even when he is running fast.

This is the means by which Yim really relied to become famous.

If he wasn't very satisfied with Ruby, how could Yim teach Ruby all his eating skills.

Soon, Ruby and Im were outside the Heavy Rock Tribe.

Here, there is already a team that has been reorganized.

Thirty-five bearmen did not appear, but twenty of the Northland barbarians came, plus two lizardmen, Andre, Andre's slave catcher team and Tiny, this lineup can already be regarded as relatively luxurious.

A look of surprise flashed in Ruby's eyes: Is there any more military action?

As if seeing the surprise in Ruby's eyes, Im whispered, "Lord Sean has ordered, our goal this time is to help that sycophant take over the Great Red Fire Tribe and secure his chieftaincy. ”

The sycophant is, of course, the blood-eyed goblin Carlos.

Andrey's slave catcher team didn't have a good opinion of the goblin, or a normal person wouldn't have a good opinion of the goblin, especially the goblins in the Savage. But I don't know what the road is, this goblin named Carlos shows that he is definitely different from ordinary goblins, although this is indeed easy to lower people's vigilance and easily arouse the favor of others, but for the members of their more pragmatic slave catchers, it is undoubtedly another reason to hate this goblin even more.

But despite hating Carlos, no one denies Carlos' abilities.

He was indeed a very good commander, and in the sandbox that had begun to unfold in the Heavy Rock Tribe in recent days, Carlos was able to defeat Andre head-on with the same number of troops. Even when the force is weak, Carlos can use some surprise tactics that the goblins will never think of to gain an advantage in the battle, and often at this time, if Andrei is a little careless, then the result is naturally defeated.

The only people who could defeat Carlos head-on in the sandbox deduction were two people.

Cecilia and the lizardman Kruma.

Of course, because Sean did not participate in this tactical game of sand table deduction, the result is not easy to say. It's just that, as the true leader of a team, no one thought of letting Sean go up and actually operate it - of course, Ruby personally thought that if Sean also played, he might not be able to beat Andre.

However, in private, Ruby also had some doubts, was it because Andre lost to Carlos, so these slave catchers under Andre did not give Carlos a good look?

But in any case, at this moment, when he learned that the assembled troops were actually to help Carlos seize the position of chief of the Great Red Fire Tribe, Ruby was still a little jealous. Because it gave him the illusion that he was less important than a goblin.

"The Great Red Fire Tribe is a tribe between the third and fourth seats, but there is no witch sacrifice in the tribe at present, but there is a strong high priest." Im explained, "This time you and I and the other two will form a special attack force......

"Assault force?" Ruby was confused.

"That's what Lord Sean said." "Anyway, by and large, our job is to infiltrate the Great Red Fire Tribe and assassinate the High Priest and the Chief directly. It is absolutely not good to attack head-on with our strength, and it is even likely to take our own lives, so we can only be careful. …… Thankfully, Miss Tinny will be with us this time, which gives us a great deal of confidence, but even then we will have to deal with the High Priest while he is asleep. ”

"If it's a tribe between the third and fourth seats, I'm afraid the army is very strong, right?"

"That's the problem of Carlos and Lord Andrew, anyway, according to Carlos, he has a way to deal with two of the clans, and we only need to deal with the high priest and the chief, and the remaining three clans only need to turn against one more, and we will win this battle." Yimu said, "So this time you have to pay attention, this is not training, but a real real fight, I hope you don't die." ”

"Don't worry, Mr. Im, I'm sure I'm not going to die." Ruby nodded.

But even so, the rupee was still melancholy.

Looking at the elated Carlos, it looked like he was going to return home, and Ruby sighed in his heart: when will he have such a day? (To be continued......)
