Chapter 4 Killing Night
The thief was stunned. He didn't expect that this down-and-out noble could still ensure calmness in this situation and made the most correct judgment.
The Pinezi River beach is extremely wide. If it is on the beach, Marvin will definitely not be able to escape the pursuit of Akron gang members.
Only the sparse woods next to it can have a ray of possibility.
"Are you blind? "The thief murmured in his heart, and was not in a hurry. He greeted the gang members who were following and quickly followed.
His agility is very high, and he doesn't believe that a nobleman who doesn't even have a combat profession can't get rid of it.
What's more, this forest does not have that complicated terrain, so he can't escape.
Marvin rushed into the woods first. Under the cover of the dark night, he quickly approached a big tree with lush branches and leaves.
"I don't even need to sneak, I look very confident."
Ma Wen leaned against the pine tree and watched the thief chasing over with a dagger in his arms, sneering in his heart.
I still have an advantage.
After seeing the Akron gang, Ma Wen was surprised and confused, but he never lost his calmness. Joke, as a former Dark Night Master, his combat experience is extremely rich. These gangsters are barely considered professionals. Although their strength is higher than him and more people than him, sometimes combat experience is very important!
Especially in complex terrain!
When Marvin successfully took office as a Ranger, he was very careful when wearing the Ranger badge and put it in a very hidden position, so the gang members should not have reacted. Marvin has become a professional like them!
This is a huge advantage.
"If you want to kill me? Then don't blame me."
He silently pulled out a white scimitar from his waist, revealing a hint of cruelty. Since these scumbags wanted to eat themselves, they had to be prepared to be killed.
Yes, since the Akron gangsters appeared, he had never thought of running away at all. He wanted to find out the truth.
He is going to keep all these people here!
Thinking of this, his blood began to boil. This feeling has been a long time since. The last time he was so excited was probably when he was completing the mission of the Gods, facing the pursuit of more than a dozen demigods alone?
...
This forest is actually very small, and there is not much room for Ma Wen to deal with.
He must be the first to kill this thief before the rest of the people approached. Marvin believes that the rest of the gang should not have thieves. This guy who doesn't need to sneak is their only thief. He is also the most threatening among them. The thief has high perception and agility, and it is easy to find his hiding place.
As long as he is killed, Ma Wen can deal with the rest of the people slowly.
Thinking of this, he curled up slightly and got closer to the pine tree.
[Skills are hidden and activated!]
Ranger's signature skills were naturally extraordinary. With the help of the night, Ma Wen's body vaguely merged with the pine tree. The thief suddenly realized it and took a big step towards this side. Ma Wen tightened his scimitar and held his breath.
The 41-point hide skill, plus the +9 provided on the Sika Deer badge, is just enough to trigger the hidden effect attached to the 50-point hide skill [Night Blessings].
[Night Blessing]: When you use the hiding skill, if it is at night, the effect will be increased by 5%.
Don’t underestimate this 5%. In many cases, even a 1% increase is enough to change the situation.
As a PK master in his previous life, Ma Wen was not only very proficient in the thief profession, but also knew the rest of the professions well. That was why he immediately put his hiding skills to 50 o'clock.
But he didn't expect it to come in handy so soon.
The perception of this thief seems to be lower than Mar Wen expected. He may be able to become a thief because of his years of influence and training in the market, not because of his extraordinary talent.
He walked by Ma Wen carelessly, and at this moment, a cry suddenly came from the entrance of the woods:
"Jack, where is **? Where is that noble?"
Jack turned around impatiently and shouted at the entrance: "I'm here! That little nobleman is nearby and can't escape!"
Ma Wen waited silently for him to finish this sentence, then took a clean step and came to the thief like a ghost.
The left hand suddenly pressed the thief's mouth, and the inner blade of the scimitar in his right hand easily cut across the thief's throat!
In an instant, blood surged and the thief's body began to struggle violently!
But Ma Wen covered his mouth expressionlessly, and the opponent's random struggle before death could not hurt him at all.
【Ordinary attack succeeds!】
[Hit to death! Ordinary attacks turn into death attacks!]
[Target death! Get 18 points of killing experience!]
Without looking at the battle records that passed by, Marvin could sense from the opponent's gradually limp body that this guy was dead.
"The movements are too slow." Marvin shook his head dissatisfied.
Due to his physical and profession, the power he can exert is not very strong. This set of actions just now was the Phantom Assassin's iconic combo [Shadow Cutting] + [Throat Cutting]. This combo will produce an extremely high killing bonus on the skills, and it is no matter how suitable it is to kill the opponent in seconds.
Although Marvin is not a thief now, he can still complete these two technical movements with memory and physical instinct. Although he is very dissatisfied with the completion of the movements, these two movements themselves do not have super high attack bonuses like skills, but accordingly, his opponent is not a powerful character.
A level 2 thief with 42 health points will still be very difficult to deal with if he is not hit by a critical point. However, the first-level profession is insensitive to the critical point of death. Once hit by a critical point of death, he will undoubtedly die.
This careless thief is obviously the negative textbook for low-level professionals. He probably thought that Marvin had no power to resist, but he did not expect that the object they were chasing suddenly changed and became an assassination expert.
Ma Wen quickly searched the thief and touched a wallet and some materials for the production mechanism trap.
"Poor ghost..." There are only 5 silver coins in the wallet, very shriveled.
Those materials were useful. Ma Wen took advantage of the fact that the rest of the people had not yet found them, and pulled the thief's body to a hidden place, found another big tree, and opened the hiding.
He looked up and saw a dark cloud blew over the moon, and his vision was very poor.
Tonight is destined to be a killing night.
...
The thief's companions had four people. They rushed into the woods with torches. Under the flames, the already sparse woods suddenly became brighter.
With torch lighting, Marvin's hiding skills will undoubtedly be greatly reduced. What's worse is that they will soon find the thief's body. Because of the tight time, he didn't have time to deal with the body, but just covered it up for a little.
At that time, they will be more alert and know that their prey is not powerless to fight back. In this way, Marvin's chances of continuing to succeed are greatly reduced.
"Damn, damn Jack, he didn't stop the little noble from running into the woods." One of them cursed in a rough voice: "I haven't responded to us yet, what exactly does this kid want to do?"
"Maybe that little noble ran faster, so he chased after him first."
"But he did not leave us too many traces, and it would be a waste of time to continue to search like this. We must ensure that the boss's orders are executed. Tonight, the little nobleman named Marvin must die!"
The fire shone over, and Ma Wen turned sideways and listened calmly to the enemy's footsteps. Without professional listening skills, his perception became a bit passive. However, these people were as carefree as those thieves, and did not deliberately control the footsteps when walking, so he could still judge their direction by the footsteps.
There are four people in total, two tall men, one fat man, and a sissy.
Even without looking at him, he can make such a judgment.
The four of them came near him and had a dispute with each other. What made Marvin happy was that after a short while, the four guys made a decision that made Marvin's heart so violent: search separately!
It seems that they are very confident in their strength and feel that they can still be easily defeated by a little noble who has no combat profession.
The four people scattered, the other three left in three different directions, and the fourth person searched nearby.
Marvin cleverly used the shadows to avoid the search range of the other three people - he had too many such experiences, and he was alone in a complex cave group or in the jungle to hunt down a trained team. These gangsters had not experienced professional training, otherwise they would not have left Marvin with so many search blind spots for him to hide.
The fourth person was walking around in circles, Ma Wen waited for the rabbit, and waited for an opportunity in less than half a minute.
It was exactly the same as the action of the thief who had just dealt with, and it was a neat step-cutting and throat-cutting technique.
【Ordinary attack succeeds!】
[Hit to death! Ordinary attacks turn into death attacks!]
[Target death! Get 11 points of killing experience!]
This is a level 1 ** - one of the most common professions in urban gangs. The professions have expertise and trait bonuses in street fighting, but in the wild, they have no advantages.
The threat he brought to Marvin was far less than that of the thief. The only thing that satisfied Marvin was that this guy was a little richer than that Mr. Thieves, with 12 silver coins on him.
A faint smell of blood spread in the woods. Ma Wen acted in one go and killed two people in a way.
These two people provided Marvin with 26 silver coins and a total of 30 killing experience. Unfortunately, when killing the last person, because the opponent was a little taller, Marvin's hand failed to cover him tightly. Although the throat slashing technique was effective as usual, the unlucky guy still screamed.
This immediately woke the last Akron gang member, who rushed over with a torch in a few seconds.
Marvin didn't have time to avoid it.
"We underestimate you." The tall man looked at the corpse under Ma Wen's feet, a little surprised.
He held the torch in one hand and a machete in the other, showing a ferocious look: "But tonight, you're dead."
Marvin calmly threw a scout.
【Reconnaissance (35) skill is being activated…】
【Relevant verification is being passed…】
【Scout failed! You cannot get more information!】
Reconnaissance failed!
This means that the other party has at least three adventure profession levels!
