Who says knights can't backstab

Chapter 45: The Year of Longyin Without Dragons 【Ask for a ticket! 】

The carriage without a roof was running staggeringly in the snow outside the Tower of the North Wind.Cyril woke up after a short nap, looking at Caroline and Mia who were sitting side by side on the left and turning the pages of the book, and the two wanderers and rangers who had dealt with him on the right, there was a vague sense of both. sense of sight.

"I'm not going to fight some dragon next."

He laughed at himself, thinking that he was a little funny, how could he think of dragons—although 1440 was named the year of the dragon's chant by astrologers, from the beginning to the end, no matter which country the players belonged to, there was no such thing as a dragon. I heard even a dragon chant.

Those huge creatures that soared over the top of the continent before ancient times are said to have once radiated with the gods, but they have not appeared in the world for thousands of years.

Legend has it that they returned to the dragon domain that only belonged to them, and never asked about world affairs again.

Even after nearly 30 years in the game, Cyril has only seen a dragon, not a real dragon.

He sat up, first stretched out his hands to turn up the collar of the roundly dressed Caroline, so as to better block the howling cold wind, and then asked Sheldon who was sitting in the driver's seat:

"How long until we arrive."

"Go out of the west gate and walk quickly for an hour and a half. We walk too slowly, and we need another half an hour."

Sheldon's voice passed through the mask, mask and a thick scarf in front of his face - Cyril didn't know why he needed to wear a scarf after wearing two layers, maybe it was psychologically shadowed by Iris .

They left the city at noon and had been on the road for nearly two hours.If it wasn't for taking care of Mia and Caroline, two delicate and frail girls, they wouldn't have run so slowly.

Choosing to take Caroline and Mia out of the city together, Cyril naturally had his own considerations.

First of all, the situation in the Tower of the North Wind is not clear - most of the high-level mages in the Mage Tower have gone to the fortress to support Lovisa and Alderney, excluding those old antiques who have retreated, it seems that the only ones who can come out to take care of things are those who have jumped The reversed six-ring mage Ruize.

Ruize may be an insider, and it seems that it is still in the incubation period, like an unexploded bomb.Originally, there would be no intersection with Cyril and his party.

Judging from the historical fact that the Tower of the North Wind fell in March 1441, Ruize should not act rashly.

But now things have changed - intruding necromancers and fragments of corrupted orbs.

Cyril still doesn't know the relationship between Mom Morris and Rize, but even if there is only one in a thousand chance that Rize knows the existence of the corrupted orb fragments, it is impossible for Caroline and Mia in the city. Safety.

That is a fragment of a legendary item, at least an epic rank.

Taking them and Sheldon out certainly has certain risks. After all, in Sheldon’s vague confession, it seems that what he wants to enter is an underground relic——the location of the treasures related to the underground relic is generally extremely difficult to explore. The risks will naturally increase accordingly.

But exploring the ruins is exactly what Cyril is good at. Even if he can't get the treasure, he still has a high degree of confidence to escape unscathed.

What's more, the task of Caroline and Mia seems to be just to stand up and be responsible for ensuring the opening of the passage. Anyway, when the time comes, Cyril sees the situation is wrong, and it doesn't matter if he turns around and leaves in time. He doesn't believe that Sheldon will tear him apart. He was shameless, and all he lost was the unacquired treasure and a "Backstab" skill.

After all, in the tavern, Sheldon had already happily taught him "Stealing", and this skill was well placed in his skill bar at this time.

Steal [Shadow] (beginner).

Compared with completely sneaking into the Shadow Realm and strengthening the stealth by a level, stealing that also uses the Shadow Realm does not have such a strong improvement.Cyril felt it carefully, and found that this is actually more like a technique of using skills——

Escaping the whole body into the shadow world and transforming it into a partial coverage of the strengthened shadow world can achieve the effect of isolating elements and not being interfered by magic power.For example, if there is an enchantment set up by Mage Gaohuan around a treasure, through the coverage of the Shadow Realm, those elements can be isolated in an instant, and the treasure can be taken out of the enchantment without being harmed by the enchantment...

It sounds like it has nothing to do with stealing, it's clearly a robbery - of course, this is also because Cyril can't think of any stealing that needs to use this technique.

In fact, stealing is a very weak skill. The success of a general stealing target depends on one's own tactics and the vigilance of the opponent. In the game, it is not convenient to attack friendly NPCs. It's too big, and stealth can't be approached casually. Many rogues have filled up their lockpicking and other skills after playing, but stealing is still at the rudimentary level.

If it weren't for Sheldon's reputation as the "Shadow Man" and his excellent record in stealing the crown, Cyril would definitely choose to learn "backstab" instead of stealing, even if Sheldon's backstab is just a normal version.

He was thinking about how to use the theft in his mind, the rogue and the ranger were chatting in low voices, and then began to chuckle, while Mia was telling Caroline the basic composition of spells—this was what Cyril wanted her to teach Caroline.

The carriage was advancing steadily like this, when Sheldon in the front row suddenly pulled the reins hard, and the horse neighed and stopped.

Cyril raised his head and looked forward, only to find that the road ahead was blocked by roadblocks, soldiers in heavy armor were pacing back and forth, and there was even a makeshift sentry tower on one side, on which a ranger whistled.

"who!"

They also saw the carriage driven by Sheldon, and a leading soldier leaned forward with a shield.Cyril glanced at the intricate pattern engraved on the shield, and it could be seen that it was a large lizard with a long neck and wings.

"Flying dragon army."

He recognized immediately who the fighter belonged to.The Flying Dragon Legion is the army under the command of the Grand Duke of Northern Xinjiang and the largest defensive force in La Rochelle, the inner ring of Northern Xinjiang.

When players participated in the Northern Frontier War, the Flying Dragon Legion was the one that most often cooperated with them. Among them, the Flying Dragon Knights were the top ten knights in La Rochelle. The losses in the plain retreat were heavy, and it was reduced to a second-rate knight order in 1443.

But it is only 1440 now, why did the Flying Dragon Corps appear on the outskirts of northern Xinjiang?

Just as he was thinking, he saw Sheldon jump out of the car and asked the soldier:
"Flying Dragon Corps? I'm here to investigate the ruins, the people behind are all my people."

The soldier immediately looked solemn, and solemnly performed a knight salute: "Your Excellency, I have been waiting for a long time! Please get out of the car and enter the camp!"

So they got out of the car one after another, and the soldier didn't show any disrespect even if he was facing a low-level wanderer, and he was even more respectful when Caroline and Mia, two women who seemed to be mages, passed by.

But when Cyril was about to enter the camp, he suddenly pulled out his sword and stopped in front of Cyril.

"Hey, you also came to explore the ruins with Lord Sheldon?"

Looking at his dark square face with a hideous scar, Cyril nodded without any fear:

"That's right, do you have any opinion on me?"

Immediately, that square face suddenly grinned, revealing bright white teeth:
"I don't have a problem with you, but I have a problem with the sword in your hand! Dragon Legion, people from the Silver Blade Knights are not welcome!"

　It seems annoying to send out tickets all the time, but if I don’t send them, I’m afraid that there will be no tickets, so I still send them]
