Is life easy for the Treasure Thieves?

It's actually not easy.

Although people who join the treasure-stealing group come here to make a fortune, few actually improve their lives.

On the contrary, because he joined the treasure-stealing group, he was ostracized everywhere, like a rat crossing the street. He was yelled at and beaten wherever he went.

"Brother Zhongfu, is there really a treasure there? But except for some strange shrines, I didn't see anything?"

Ah Xian asked while wiping the flying knife in his hand.

"Yes, and when I stay there, I always feel uncomfortable in my heart, as if someone is watching us in the dark. Will the gods really not blame us?"

A member of the treasure stealing group named Ah Hao asked while squeezing towards Ah Xian.

Compared with Zhongfu, Ah Yin and Ah Hao have only recently joined the treasure stealing group, so they can only do some scouting work.

In team collaboration, it is usually checking points and tracking.

But compared with the wealthy Tadashi, their lives are not that good even though they have joined the treasure stealing group for half a year.

Even the throwing knife in my hand has been used many times. When it gets dull, I just grind it with a stone by the stream and keep using it. I don't want to replace it with a new one.

In fact, with Tadashi as a senior taking care of them, they wouldn't be in such a miserable state.

It's a pity that they have no talent themselves, and because of lack of education, they can't even read a few big characters.

I can only do this kind of scout work.

If Tadashi hadn't taken them with him intentionally this time, they probably wouldn't have had the chance to be exposed to a mission of this level.

"What do you know? The weirder the place, the more good things it contains. Also, it's okay to ask this kind of question in front of me, but don't mention it in front of others, otherwise they will use it as an excuse to treat you

Two of them were done away with!”

Tadao has been in the treasure stealing group for some years, and he knows the internal intrigues better than anyone else.

Although they all belong to the same force, they are definitely not friendly.

Scouts like Ah Hao and Ah Xian, if they were others, they would definitely be used as cannon fodder.

For example, those guys next to me.

They were the subordinates of a small boss named Kosuke on Narukami Island, and they were sent to assist Tadashi in checking out the points.

If it weren't for the loyal husband watching, Ah Xian and Ah Hao would have been used as shields by them to push the slime entrenched in the hole.

They were very happy to watch these two rookies die in front of them and take away their belongings at the same time.

Unlike other treasure stealing groups, because he has read some books and has talent, Tadao has a method that ordinary treasure stealing group members do not have - potions.

On the continent of Teyvat, there are always some people who use methods other than the Eye of God to obtain elemental power.

For example, the evil eye and alchemy that the Fools have been developing.

And Kseniya took advantage of the flying fireflies' love for the mist grass and controlled them to fight for herself.

Tadashi's methods are somewhat similar to those of an alchemist.

In the early years, in order to break open the hard stones in the ruins, some members of the treasure thieving group with simple alchemy knowledge tried to prepare some potions.

These potions have properties similar to elemental powers.

For example, fire potions that explode and burn, cold ice potions, moist water potions, and tingling thunder potions.

In his early years, Tadao worked with a pharmacist who could prepare potions with thunder properties.

Unlike alchemists, the recipes circulated among treasure stealing groups are just folk remedies, which are not as stable as alchemy.

Therefore, if you want to inherit this mantle, in addition to being careful, you also need a smart enough brain.

The reason why the pharmacy of the Treasure Thieves Group can be passed down to this day is also thanks to the improvements made by some members.

Otherwise...

It will be the same as in previous years, each time a potion is used, a member will be sacrificed.

And now, Tadashi is borrowing Ksenia's broken pot to make his own potion.

This is also one of the advantages of pharmacy. Even if you don't have an alchemy table, as long as you have a pot, you can prepare it yourself.

As the night grew darker, the members of the treasure thief group who were on guard had been replaced, but Tadashi was still studying the potion by the light of the fire.

"Um?"

After putting down the potion prepared in his hand, Tadao looked at another group of treasure thieves that did not belong to his group with some strangeness.

He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he always felt something was wrong.

To put it simply...it seems that there are a few fewer people than when we first arrived.

Did you go to stand guard? Or went to the toilet?

Alas, what a bunch of noobs, how can they go out casually in such pitch dark weather?

It's okay to attract people from Qiuqiu, but it would be difficult if it was a wild crowd.

Although their treasure-stealing group often cooperates with wild people, those evil spirits who can't be fed can't be easily provoked.

After a few casual complaints, Tadao continued to study the potion in his hand to see if he could improve it.

But when he raised his head again a few minutes later, his scalp became numb again.

Because a person he saw before has disappeared again.

Have you gone to the toilet?

How is that possible!

Although he didn't focus on those guys, he also didn't focus all his attention on the potion like before.

He was quite sure that no one in that group moved or left at all.

So why did a good person suddenly disappear?

Monster? Evil spirit? Or...

Thinking about the cave that his group had explored before, Tadashi began to feel uncertain.

He held a bottle of potion in his hand and stood up slowly.

Based on experience, he first looked at those responsible for standing guard.

But the strange thing is that some of those standing guard are also lacking, but their companions don't seem to see it. They are either leaning on a tree or leaning on a stone, as if they are lazy?

No! You’re not being lazy!

They are dead!

Tadao noticed this and immediately wanted to open his mouth as a warning.

But the coolness on his neck made him slowly close his mouth.

And a black ghost with a white mask appeared in front of him.

"Shh."

The man still held the dagger in his left hand, and stretched his right hand in front of him, making a silencing gesture.

Having been in the treasure thief group for so long, Tadao can be considered a good person.

He knew very well that since the other party did not kill him, he naturally had other intentions.

Besides, those who were killed were not on the same side as him, so he nodded wisely and sat back down again.

It's just that he never dared to hold the bottle of potion that he had prepared.

At this point, the ghost wearing the white mask stopped acting. He didn't even hide his figure, and just walked carelessly into the group of sleeping treasure thieves.

He was like a gust of wind in the night, taking away all the warmth from the treasure thieves and harvesting their souls at the same time.

Tadao finally understood why some of his colleagues disappeared.

Because after the opponent's dagger penetrated into the bodies of his colleagues, some of them turned into imperceptible light spots inexplicably and disappeared in place.

This unheard-of method made the fear in his heart almost uncontrollable.
