Chapter VI Wharf Area
A simple but cosy breakfast.
As Sauron prepared to go out, Vivien stood up silently, straightened his sleeves with her little hands, and stood on a stool tiptoe to fix his collar for him. Without much to say, as they had already had a tacit understanding, Sauron gently touched her little head, and then walked towards the low shed.
"Brother...... Brother! ……”
As Sauron's figure left, Vivien shrank slightly, locking the door tightly.
In the past, her brother went out like this when something happened, but she was not afraid in the slightest, because she still had Heath by her side, and even if a bad guy broke in, there was an old dog to protect her. There had been many burglaries in the slums, and now that Heath was gone forever, she was alone in the room, and she was always a little scared.
Ultimately.
After all, she was just an eight-year-old girl.
All along, she has no sense of security, afraid of the dark, afraid of loneliness, afraid of being alone.
But she couldn't tell Sauron.
Because Sauron also has something very important, he needs to get the money back, and there is not much to eat at home.
She didn't want to be a burden to her brother.
Even though there was very little she could do now, the little girl still felt that she shouldn't worry Sauron.
"Vivien."
The little girl held the broom tightly in her hand and whispered, "You have to learn to be strong!" ”
"You have to learn to take care of yourself."
"My brother has woken up, and no one dares to come and disturb him again."
"They're all afraid of my brother!"
Dock.
It is the most densely populated part of Amber City, and the entire city's economy is supported by an agate river.
Most of the men in the slums worked as coolies here, and the Agate River was flooded with boats to transport goods from all over the country, which then required a lot of labor to carry them. It is also the place where gang fighting is most intense, with more than a dozen gangs of all sizes begging for a living, whether it is stealing property, withholding goods, or extorting protection money, there is always a way for many gangs to find a way to make money.
"That's Sauron?!"
A tall and thin man glanced at Sauron walking in the distance, and immediately whispered an order to the people around him, and then walked over and said, "Sauron." ”
"The boss wants to meet you!"
Sauron glanced up at the man in front of him, and remembered who he was, a guy named Garris.
He's a good fighter.
An adventurer who had been following others for a while, but not long after leaving Amber City, he encountered a group of goblins and gnolls. Gnolls are dangerous creatures that move in groups and often sneak up on adventurers in the middle of the night. The entire team of adventurers died in a terrible way, and he escaped by chance, but one arm was left with a very severe wound. Later, he joined a local gang and never had the idea of becoming a powerful adventurer to earn amazing wealth and fame.
If calculated according to the class template, he should be a level 1o civilian/level 3 warrior.
Weaker than the guards of Onyx!
"Boss?"
Sauron looked at him and shook his head, "The head is dead. ”
"Killed by that wizard."
A mission that shouldn't have been taken at all killed not only Sauron, but also most of the core members of the gang.
Are wizards so easy to mess with?
The wizards in this world who are qualified to come out and act alone are all above the first order, and the minimum career template for the class template is a 1O-level scholar/a level 5 wizard.
Not to mention a mere gang, even a regular army may not be able to beat him.
Sauron is very clear about the horrors of wizards above the first order, if it weren't for their own fragility, they would simply be the most powerful class.
The crazy turbulent period of this world is about to begin, not to mention the high-level professionals, even the legendary realm may be wiped out like a chicken and a dog.
He has no interest in wasting time on a local gang.
"Sauron."
Garris looked at him silently and said slowly, "Cole has become the new leader. ”
"It's up to you whether you want to see him or not."
"Cole isn't a good talker."
Sauron is a good thief, and no matter which gang it is, he will not give up such a source of wealth lightly.
It's okay to say that he was unconscious before, after all, no one will pay attention to a guy who is dying, but now that he has woken up, he naturally has to find a way to win him over.
Sauron heard the faint threat in it, and his eyes couldn't help but narrow slightly, revealing a trace of killing intent!
He's a thief.
Thieves are also assassins in the shadows, and they are more dangerous than anyone else.
"I'll decide for myself."
Sauron ignored Garris and walked towards the docks.
He's got business to do!
In the past, Sauron was a little cowardly in the gang because he took care of Vivien, and every time he stole something, a large part of it was exploited, and what was left was almost enough for the two of them to make ends meet. The main reason is that the original Sauron has not received formal combat training, and even if he has an agility value of 18 points, his combat effectiveness is far inferior to that of a formally trained warrior. But the current Sauron is different, the man in front of him definitely can't hold three moves in his hands!
………………
This inconspicuous warehouse, which houses a lot of goods, is a common place in the docklands.
A shadow approached silently.
Sauron carefully avoided the guards outside, who were just strong, ordinary people, and he quickly found a box after entering.
It was a locked box with more valuable goods inside.
He pulled out a hooked wire from his pocket, and at the moment he had only the rudimentary lockpicking tool.
Sauron cautiously reached in, his fingers turning nimbly.
Bite!
Click!
It took a while for the lock on the box to be quickly picked open.
A row of numbers jù emerges:
"Lock picking successful!"
"Your Rogue skills are improved and you gain 15 Class XP."
When Sauron saw the number jù that appeared in front of him, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that the way to gain professional experience is still there.
Rogue is not a powerful combat class in the early stages, does not have the strong physique of a warrior, and cannot master special abilities like a paladin. Adventurous killing in the wild is dangerous for thieves, whether it is a low-level kobold or a goblin, they all appear in groups, many of them have a keen sense of smell, and it is easy to sneak up on low-level thieves. So in the very beginning, the only way for thieves to increase their strength level is to pick locks and disarm traps.
This is the safest way!
Until the class level is level 5, thieves can use guò to pick locks to gain experience, and until the class level is level 1o, they can still gain a lot of class experience by disarming the trap.
As for the back, then only some special magic locks and advanced traps will be useful!
Ordinary locks and traps are no longer enough to improve a thief's skills.
Squeak!
Sauron gently opened the box, which contained some tea bricks, and he didn't touch the goods, but continued with the usual box.
Class XP cannot be gained by picking the same lock twice, and in order to gain experience, you must meet the conditions to improve the skills of the Thief. The docks have a lot of these locked chests, enough to increase his Rogue level a bit.
Two or three boxes were pried open in a row.
Sauron's footsteps suddenly stopped in front of a doorway, and he took a closer look at the ground before taking a deep breath.
Smack!
He jumped lightly, landed on an oak barrel, then stretched out his fingers and pinched an inconspicuous silk thread, lifted it and wrapped it around a nail, then cut the other end with a dagger, and then dismantled an alarm device from the fly. It's a rudimentary trap, and if you accidentally break a thread, an alarm will sound on the other end of the trap.
At that time, there were many thieves who suffered losses, and they were caught and directly crippled!
The world of Clash of the Gods is brutal.
The crippled thieves had no one to treat them, and they couldn't afford the expensive treatments, and eventually became so disabled that they had to die again.
It's hard to go from a low-level professional to the legendary realm!
A lot of people have fallen again and again.
It's not just about strength, it's about luck!
Sauron waited quietly, carefully observing the ground, looking for possible traps.
One such warehouse.
If an alarm trap is installed, then there can not be only one, there must be another.
There may be something of value in it.
Really!
Sauron soon saw something strange under the plank, and he carefully pried it up with his dagger, holding his fingers firmly on it, not daring to tremble in the slightest.
There's an even more dangerous trap down there!
If you are touched, there will be throwing knives shooting out from both sides, and it is very likely that you will be killed on the spot!
Click.
Sauron used his dagger to pull the trigger, then twisted it aside, and with a thud two throwing knives shot out of the top of his head and nailed them to the wall next to him.
A row of numbers jù emerges:
"Clearing the trap successfully."
"Your Rogue skills are improved and you gain 5o Class XP."
"Clearing the trap successfully."
"Your Rogue Skills are improved and you gain 12o Class XP."
Call.
Sauron breathed a sigh of relief, relaxed a little, and muttered, "Sure enough, the experience of dismantling traps is higher!" ”
"But it's also dangerous."
After tearing down two traps in a row, coupled with the professional experience gained from picking locks at the beginning, Sauron finally scraped together 2oo experience points and chose to increase the level of thieves without hesitation.
"Raise the Rogue class to level 2."
"Gain 23 (agility 19 + (intelligence 18-1o)*o.5) skill points, and increase health by 9 (class health 6 + (constitution 15-1o)*o.5))."
"Gain 1 free attribute."
Compared to the skill points that can be obtained at every class level, it is difficult to obtain free attribute points.
You must increase two class levels to gain 1 free attribute.
In other words, the next time you get free attribute points, you will have to wait until Sauron raises the Rogue class to level 4.
This freedom attribute can be said to be quite valuable!
Sauron glanced at his attribute template, and without hesitation, he assigned the free attribute points to the agility value, the 2o point attribute is a threshold, the attribute below twenty points is still within the range of ordinary people, and higher than twenty points is equivalent to entering the ranks of mortals.
There was a sound of footsteps outside the warehouse.
Sauron leaped to his feet, his arm gripping the roof beam, and quietly dived out.
Just a little bit of agility gain.
It is enough for him to make many difficult movements that he could not complete before, whether it is the conditioned reflex or sensitivity of the body, it has broken through the scope of ordinary people.
A man quickly came in.
He glanced at the warehouse, then his face changed slightly and he shouted loudly, and soon a group of guards with weapons poured in outside.
It looks like this warehouse won't be able to come in the future.
Since they have already entered the thieves, they will definitely strengthen their garrison in the future!
