The Upper Town is located on the outer ring of the Stormwind Palace, and the entire city is in a semicircle, with mansions and courtyards guarding the towers of Stormwind Fortress, forming one of the most spectacular buildings in Stormwind City.

As soon as he approached the edge of Shangcheng District, Xia Yu immediately felt something different.

There are surprisingly many guards here, and every traffic artery and intersection is guarded by Stormwind guards.

Moreover, the upper district is located higher than the surrounding area, and there is a wall that separates it from the rest of the city, so it is clear that this will be the safest area in the event of war.

If you convert it to the real world, it is almost equivalent to the second ring road of the capital.

However, this kind of security is meaningless for a full-level thief like Xia Yu, and he sneaked straight between the guards, looking at the mansion compounds on both sides of the road, Xia Yu was also dazzled.

Where to start with so many luxury homes?

He observed as he walked, and soon discovered an interesting place.

On the gate of almost every mansion in the upper town, there is a emblem, some of which is an eagle, some of which is a wolf, some of which is a deer, some of which are of a tree, and some of which are of a flower.

These are actually the so-called noble badges, and every family with a certain background has a similar emblem as a symbol of the family.

There is something similar in real Europe, and there is even a heraldic science that is used to identify nobles of different ranks and families.

On the outside of a small number of aristocratic emblems, there will be a golden dragon-shaped border, Xia Yu guessed that this should be the meaning of high-ranking nobles, most of them should be dukes.

If you want to steal, you can steal it, Xia Yu directly locked a duke's mansion and prepared to start.

The main entrance of the mansion was closed, and there were two guards standing guard, but this was difficult for Xia Yu, and when he went around the courtyard wall of the mansion, Xia Yu climbed to the ground with all his strength, and jumped up five or six meters high when he rubbed it.

It is not a light work that is better than a light work, grabbing the raised slanting on the wall, pulling hard, flying three or four meters high again, and a somersault fell lightly on the courtyard wall.

I walked along the courtyard wall for a while, climbed up a distance, and went directly to the roof of the third floor.

Standing on the roof and looking down, you can see a noble lady in a long dress walking in the small garden of the mansion.

On the other side of the school field, a young knight was practicing his sword, accompanied by several servants.

He walked slowly along the roof, and at the end of the roof there was a tower, through the glass window, he could see a young girl in a priest's uniform praying with her eyes closed, and a faint holy light emanating from her, which seemed very holy.

Looks pretty good.

Xia Yu didn't stay long, jumped easily, jumped to the balcony on the second floor of the main house opposite, bypassed the servants who were cleaning, and entered the living room.

There is nothing to 'borrow' here, and after three and two rounds, Xia Yu came to the master bedroom.

Generally, the most valuable things should be here, the door of the master bedroom is locked, but this is difficult for Xia Yu, take out a wire, and use the lockpicking skill - with a click, the door will open.

Xia Yu entered the door of the master bedroom, closed the door with his hand, and looked around.

A portrait hangs on the wall facing the bedroom door, a middle-aged man with a majestic face, dressed in fine clothes, with a small line underneath the portrait - Duke Greg Leskova in Stormwind.

This is the owner of this mansion, Xia Yu has no impression of this guy, the noble NPC Xia Yu of Stormwind City remembers a Duke of Boval Fortagen and a Countess Catalina Presto, the former later became a third-generation Lich King, and he was worried that he would steal from Boval's house, it seems that he was too worried.

I looked around.

There was a pair of crossed swords hanging on the wall, and there was just no weapon, so I took it first.

Holding the sword in his hand and slashing it twice, it's quite handy, but although this sword is gorgeous, it is obviously just an ornament, not a very good weapon.

A box of jewelry was found in the dresser, this is a good thing, presumably the Duchess's jewelry.

Some scattered gold coins, thirty or forty pieces, were in the pocket together.

The frescoes on the walls, the table clock in the corner, the armor attached to the dummy, the matching two-handed broadsword, the gold belt buckle and the jewel-encrusted scepter.

Anyway, as long as you look at all the valuable items in the bag, the 20 compartments of the backpack are enough to stuff a lot of items.

After scraping around, half of the back was packed, but Xia Yu was still not satisfied, the dignified duke was so good? Who will believe it? The nobility of Stormwind is notoriously corrupt.

There must still be, will there be a secret door or something like that? That's how it is played in movies.

He stomped around for a while, and a statue of a knight in the corner caught his eye.

Who's going to have nothing to do with this stuff in the bedroom? There must be a problem.

Xia Yu looked at it a few times, the statue was very beautifully shaped, maintaining the posture of holding a sword with both hands, and strangely it did not have a sword in its hand.

He took out the two-handed sword that matched the armor and put it in the statue's hand, and the statue's arm suddenly sank slowly, and with the sound of the mechanism opening, the statue slowly moved away, revealing a secret passage.

Xia Yu was happy in his heart, and said in his heart, he was about to tiptoe inside, and suddenly a sense of vigilance rose inexplicably in his heart, this kind of critical place will not be unguarded, right?

Detect traps! Xia Yu's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he looked carefully on the walls, floors, and ceilings of the secret passage, and soon found some subtle magical aura behind a mural on the wall.

Sure enough, there are traps! Hehe, fortunately, his level is high enough, and he can see it at a glance.

Using the Disarm Trap, the trigger device is easily removed, and a magic scroll placed in the trap is removed.

It turned out to be a fire blast technique! Damn, it's so ruthless.,I can't hide in the narrow passage.,If this triggers the rhythm that is estimated to be seconds.,Fortunately, I've done the professional task of a thief.,Know how to detect traps in advance.。

This high-grade magic scroll is also very valuable, and it is easily stuffed into the bag.

Go inside with the detection trap.

Xia Yu cracked a flame blasting trap, a frost rune trap, and a sharp blade piercing trap in a row, and finally reached the end of the aisle.

At this time, he was quite excited in his heart, with so many traps, there must be good things in it.

At the end of the aisle, there is another secret door, open it again with lockpicking skills, and the 300+ lockpicking skills can be said to be rampant everywhere.

Xia Yu's eyes lit up as soon as he entered the door, the secret room was not big, and the first thing was that boxes of gold coins were neatly stacked, and the weapon racks on both sides were full of long swords, war hammers, shields and other weapons, and several sets of full-body plate armor with metallic luster were neatly arranged, like a silent knight.

These are the real good things, and these equipment must be high-quality equipment.

It can be seen that the nobles of this world are still very martial, and in addition to gold coins, there are all kinds of armor weapons in the treasure house, and it is no wonder that Stormwind City was only captured by the tribe a few years ago, and now this is rebuilt, and the nobles who have no sense of crisis are estimated to be dead.

However, there are so many gold coins hidden at home, but there is no money to pay the salary of the stonemason guild that built the city, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a good person, and stealing your house can be regarded as doing the right thing for heaven.

He tossed out all the tatters from his bag and threw them all but the box of jewels and two swords on the floor.

Then he began to pack really good things, first picked a few weapons, and the plate armor was forgotten, he did not have a plate armor profession in this group, but there were two sets of beautifully shaped chain mail, Xia Yu put it directly into the bag, and he could wear it for Fujiwara Fuyuki and the mechanic when he went back.

It's a pity that there is no leather armor, it is estimated that people from noble backgrounds eventually become knights and warriors, and those who are a little weaker have also become priests and mages.

The rest of the backpack was stuffed into a gold coin box.

After filling the compartment in the bag, I walked back satisfied.

Quietly walked out of the bedroom door, closed it gently, and returned the same way, leaving the Duke's mansion without any danger, and he was not ready to continue to 'borrow' money after such a trip.

Went directly out of Shangcheng District, and when he arrived at a place where there was no one outside, Xia Yu finally revealed his figure, he took a deep breath, looked at the full backpack and was excited in his heart.

The problem of money was solved at once.
