"Tonight!"

In the hallway, a civilian standing aside and bowing his head whispered as I passed, shoving a ball of paper into my hand.

This is just a short word that vaguely lasts for a long time, and it must have sounded unknown to others, but it is the news I have been waiting for for a long time. "It's finally time to act!" I was secretly happy in my heart, and my fingers gently stroked the cold sword body of the "Heartthirster".

That night, according to the address on paper, I rushed to a remote stone house in the slum.

"Hurry up!" Yichen urged. His thieves smeared something unknown on my face and gave me a makeover. Taking off the breastplate I was wearing, I changed into a Mithril shirt handed by the bounty hunter, with the mark of the Gem Mercenary Regiment on it.

"You don't have to use the 'Transfiguration Technique' on me this time? Like in the past, dressed up as a slave to participate in gladiatorial fights? ”

"When you're in the arena, you're the main character in the audience's attention, so be very careful. But this time, you're just a small mercenary in my squad, and no one is paying special attention to you. Well, as long as you don't get too ostentatious. ”

Leave the stone houses behind and make a quick ride through the trails of the suburbs. Along the way, in the dark streets, in dilapidated houses, in unobtrusive corners, small groups of dark elves kept coming out to join us.

"All the streets of Demon Blade City are the territory of our gem mercenary group!" Perhaps it was the surprise on my face that the bounty hunter said triumphantly. It seems that the thief who gave me a disguise has good skills, and the disguise on my face did not make my expression deviate too much, but this arrogance is necessary to give a strong blow!

"Are you sure that the mistresses asked you for instructions when they stepped out of the house and into your territory?"

"Uh...... Ahem......" The bounty hunter was choked speechless and coughed dryly.

"Hehe~" Yichen interjected and explained: "What he just said is actually what the NPC boss of the mercenary group said to us. Of course, it doesn't mean that we have complete control over all the streets of Demon Blade City, but I guess it means that outside of the clans' territories, our mercenary group has a huge control over the secrets. ”

By the time the mercenary group stopped, hundreds of people had snowballed.

"Look!"

Not far ahead, a dazzling light flickered, and a pillar of fire rushed straight to the top of the cave, and then disappeared silently. "Is that where we're going? It's already off! ”

"That's right." Yichen commented, "The attacker should limit all the combat to the dark range. Such a scene in front of him meant that the defensive family had been prepared for a long time. ”

"I'm afraid it's not going well on our employer's side." The bounty hunter agreed.

"Well, that's why they need us!" Yichen sneered, "Maybe we should go slower, that would be more beneficial to us." ”

Yichen's wishful thinking was shattered before it started. A lizard knight galloped in front of him, and the bounty hunter hurriedly stepped forward.

"You're late!" After confirming the tokens with each other, the lizard knight rebuked.

"I think it's just right!" The bounty hunter denied: "We did not exceed the agreed time, it was you who launched the attack in advance...... Maybe we should go to the clock bar and double-check the time? ”

The lizard knight's tone softened: "The other party is on guard, and we are forced to attack in advance." As agreed, now come to the aid of our family's soldiers in their attacks! ”

The bounty hunter flirtatiously stretched out his hand, flicked his finger on the family badge on the lizard knight's chest, and playfully exclaimed, "Brothers, look here, remember that it is our employer who has this emblem, don't hit the wrong person!" In the midst of the laughter, the lizard knight's face was full of annoyance, but he could not react, and scolded with hatred: "Rabble! "Turn the lizard and leave first.

"Idiot aristocrats!" Someone responded in a whisper and gestured unwritten. There was another burst of laughter and scolding. "That's it!" Bounty hunters shouted, "Take people's money and eliminate disasters for others." Since others have paid us to ask the Gem Mercenary Group to help, let them take a good look at our awesomeness! The crowd responded, and rushed forward like a swarm.

I shook my head and hurried to follow. Yichen was carefully aware: "Hey! Don't compare us to the elites of the Demon Blade City Academy, or the regular army of the big family! Most of the players here are members, and the discipline is lacking. And this time, the employer and the target are only small families, and the elite NPCs of the mercenary group have not been dispatched, so it will be the turn of the bounty hunter to lead the team. By the way, he slandered two sentences: "You know, he will also take his little brother to fight in groups, don't expect too much." ”

…… Anyway, I'm here to mess with experience, and I didn't expect anything.

The battle was already in full swing in the target family's mansion, and the defending side had a slight advantage.

But after all, the two families who are fighting are just small families, and although the new force of the gem mercenary group is not of high quality, it is no worse than the soldiers of the small family, not to mention that it is still very advantageous in terms of numbers. The scales of victory and defeat immediately tilted in favor of the attacking side.

I drank a potion of invisibility, shook off the others, and took advantage of the fierce and chaotic battle to find a hole in the defenses and infiltrate it.

There is no need to entangle with these little minions, if you want to get the most benefits, the target must of course be the boss of this family, well, I mean the main mother.

It's not that I suddenly became bold and daring to take on a strong person at the main mother level alone, but even if I am the same master and mother level figure, my strength is far from the same.

Like our Dark Flame Housewife, if I rashly provoke, there is a ninety percent chance that I will be blown off the spot! The remaining 0.1 chance is that her old man thinks that the car is not cool enough, so she will stay and ravage to her heart's content, and by the way, she will learn about various punishment methods.

However, the head mother of a small family like this is estimated to be 1, 2, 3, or 4 levels more than me. The one who can be the master mother must be a high-ranking priest, but even the family under his command cannot develop and expand, and his strength is extremely limited. Although I still have a certain gap compared to it, I have a chance. The first wave of the war between the families should be the priest and the senior priest working together to suppress the magic power of the opposing priest through some kind of magic ritual, and the master mothers of the two sides should be fighting remotely at the moment, and their strength will be greatly damaged regardless of victory or defeat.

But the road wasn't so smooth. In this time of swords, crossbow arrows and magic, it is difficult to avoid being affected despite my efforts to walk against the wall. I held up the disk-shaped force field shield summoned by the Tier 1 ability "Power Shield" and suspended in front of me, blocking the attack that caused the pond fish to accidentally hit the secondary vehicle. But the effect of invisibility will be visible as soon as it is hit, even if it doesn't hit me directly! I had to take action to deal with the uninteresting guy who attacked me when he saw me.

An enemy soldier who rushed forward spun backwards, blood sprayed on his neck, and his health was converted into a temporary psionic point that could last for 10 minutes through the "Heartthirster", in line with the idea of not using it in vain, he showed the second-level ability "Strong Acid Weapon" to the "Heartthirsty", The sword body was attached to the dark green viscous substance, and the soldier who was cut was immediately eroded into the body by the strong acid, and died miserably!

Before the battle, I had already shown myself two second-level abilities "Bionics", which increased my strength and constitution stats by 5 points each, and the "Heartlust" in my hand was greatly increased by the "Strong Acid Weapon" ability, and there was no enemy in my hand!

Of course, this is not unrelated to the low level of soldiers in small families.

Feeling more confident, I showed the Heartlust the only level 3 ability I learned, Vampire's Blade, when I reached level 7.

This ability converts half of the basic damage dealt by my weapon to creatures into my life, and while the converted life only fills the life I lost when I was injured, unlike the Mind Appetite's Mind Absorbing ability, which can increase the cap on temporary psionic points, and only the basic damage that the weapon itself can do, the energy damage attached to the "Acid Weapon" ability does not count, and even doubling the damage on heavy hit does not double the converted life, but fortunately it doesn't have to be like the "Mind Eater" 's heart-absorbing ability only takes effect when it hits hard, and even if it's just scratching someone's finger, it can draw life!

Enemy soldiers are as vulnerable as a chicken and a dog in front of me, and even if they are wounded, they will be drained by the "Vampire Blade" ability, causing their wounds to heal quickly and quickly with the naked eye! All I had to do was protect myself from being hit, and the force field shield that was suspended in front of me and manipulated by my mind did a good job of this task.

So, I changed my strategy and attacked head-on with a strong attitude!
