Who says knights can't backstab

Chapter 24
"Enough, I understand what you want to say." Sheldon slapped the table suddenly, wiped the bones aside with his hands, and then stared at Cyril with eyes that had appreciated countless treasures.
"Young knight, you are really suitable to be a rogue, greedy enough - I don't know where you got the information, but the things in the pine forest are not something you can get your hands on, they don't even know it's there , even if it's me, it's just a coincidence..."

He stopped suddenly while he was talking, and was surprised to find that Cyril's expression gradually became weird, just like a noble young master went to his father in the middle of the night to talk about his marriage with the maid, but found the maid in his father's arms ——

"Thanks, Mr. Sheldon, I think you may have some misunderstanding..."

Cyril said dumbfounded.God is sorry, he swears that he really doesn't know what's in the pine forest. There is no mention of any treasure in the pine forest in the game.

He originally thought that the pine-leaved forest would be transformed into a cursed forest, a curse cast by a lich who sneaked in, and it should be related to the change in Tallinn Town.

But now it sounds like there is something hidden in the pine leaf forest that caused the subsequent changes.

As for why he mentioned the pine leaf forest, it was simply to imply that after the undead invaded the border, they could follow the pine leaf forest all the way and threaten the Tower of the North Wind, that's all.

In short, he blew up.

And Sheldon seemed to realize that he had revealed something extraordinary, staring at Cyril with his eyes wide open, he said falteringly: "No, I didn't, you just heard it wrong, what I said is that I want to Hunt those damned undead, damned..."

But it was too late——he saw the young half-elf in front of him squinting his eyes, with a sly look like a fox, and couldn't help but hammered the table angrily: "Okay, how do you want to trade, be straightforward, I don't want to talk nonsense with you anymore!"

But Cyril is already a shark that smells blood, how can he easily let go of this clue that can create greater benefits for himself-every wanderer is profit-seeking, and they exist wherever there is benefit.

Although he is now a "knight", and it seems that in order to cope with the next difficulties, he must add career points to the knight - after all, he can't find a second rogue mentor who can change his job in the short term.In order to have enough strength to support him to deal with the incidents related to the Tower of the North Wind, it is inevitable to promote that "apprentice knight attendant".

But this does not mean that he will fall behind in front of the "treasure".

"Mr. Sheldon, I think we can trade in two steps." Cyril stretched out two fingers, then retracted one: "First, I hope you can send me some tasks."

"Mission? I don't have a mission to send you—"

Sheldon spoke impatiently, but he was blocked by Cyril as soon as he said it: "I think Mr. Sheldon should have a mission sent by the kingdom, and he plans to go to the pine forest to find it. One, Find, that so-called treasure, am I right?"

He purposely spelled out the content related to the pine leaf forest very heavily, emphasizing and threatening at the same time.

"Well, I do have a task that I can send you, but—" Sheldon seemed to accept the fact that he was threatened, but he quickly dragged his voice out, "But, I need to know what you want is What, and I have to confirm that you have the strength to complete this task."

Cyril nodded with a smile: "Of course, what I want will not have any impact on Mr. Sheldon, not even much burden."

He paused, looked at Sheldon's eyes that gradually calmed down, and continued: "I want to learn from you..."

"I said, I can't let you change to a wanderer, at least not here." Sheldon immediately refused, but it didn't work for Cyril. The young half-elf continued to say with a smile:

"I just want to learn some skills from you. I don't even need to dictate. Just watch Mr. Sheldon's action demonstration, listen to a few explanations, and read what you wrote down. That's enough."

He finished speaking in one breath, then picked up the glass, the fruit wine in the glass was not finished yet.He held the cup in front of Sheldon, who was still thinking silently, and shook it gently.

"Just like this...is that all right?"

Sheldon hesitated, a little in disbelief that the request was so simple—it would do him no harm.Although it seems that things like reading experience are too much, in fact, the experience of people like him can only be helpful if you study a profession very late.

And the young knight in front of him couldn't become a wanderer. If he could learn skills from himself by watching his movements and reading his experience, then he had nothing to say.

"But this will not help you in any way." Sheldon hesitated for a moment, but still planned to agree to the young half-elf's request, "I think you should know how difficult it is to understand the posture of a profession from the beginning—— "

"Yes, of course I know." Cyril nodded, "But maybe I'm surprised by my bones, so I learned it all at once?"

"Ahem." Sheldon choked on Cyril's words and couldn't help coughing. He didn't realize that this young man was such a cheeky self-proclaimer.

He quickly straightened his face again, showing some majesty that belonged to a mentor: "However, there must be an assessment. You have to prove that you can complete this task."

"No problem." Cyril nodded happily.

Only then did Sheldon pick up the wine glass and lightly clinked glasses with Cyril: "Then come with me, I hope you can pass this assessment."

"Of course I'll pass, and don't forget, this is only the first part of our deal, and there's the second part—"

"If you can do well, I will consider it."

After speaking, Sheldon got up first, walked to the door of the tavern, gestured to the left, and then disappeared.

Cyril briefly explained to Mia and Caroline that the little girl who walked out of Tap Town seemed to have something in her stomach, and she ate a whole deer leg by herself. Looking at the chef's steaming iron plate.

"Mr. Wei, I will take good care of Sister Caroline, don't worry, I will wait here for your return."

After getting Mia's assurance, Cyril walked out of the tavern in peace,

With the standard sword of the Silver Blade Knights hanging from his waist and a broken sword in his hand, he turned left into an alleyway.

The towering Tower of the North Wind blocked the sunlight, making this alleyway extremely dark.This road is not spacious, and with Cyril's thin figure, he can only move a little left and right.

He couldn't help frowning.

He is very familiar with this kind of environment - dark, narrow, and it is very difficult for people to move around in it.

This is a terrain that rogues like very much to intercept and kill!
As soon as this thought flashed through Cyril's mind, he heard a "hum" from where he came from.He subconsciously wanted to dodge, but there was also the sound of piercing wind from his left and right ears, and the two wanderers hiding in the shadows appeared at this moment, piercing the air with sharp daggers, and stabbing towards his neck !

One person snipe, two people surround and kill!

Kill game!
