Chapter 15: The Thief of the Village Chief's House
Not all players believe that the virtual world of Legends Reappears is better at rest than real sleep, and it always takes time for anything to come into being. Therefore, by the time it was almost 0:00, tens of thousands of players had already gone offline. So much so that the crowded border city finally got the space to breathe.
At this time, players are offline, sleeping, and those who are not afraid of death team up to go out of the village to continue to kill monsters and die, and there are not many people left who go to the epic booth to sell and buy necessities. Since I don't have a business epic and don't want to sit in a daze, my stamina has bottomed out and I can't continue to practice life skills, but fortunately, after resting for a while and eating two pieces of barbecue to satisfy my hunger, my hunger is full and my pleasure has recovered to 55. Epic, who didn't want to go to bed so early, thought that he could take a torch to walk around the village, and he also remembered that Aunt Liu had mentioned the broken wooden box in the place where he cut wood.
I used to think it was dangerous to go out because I was reluctant to use Jinchuang Medicine. But now that the assets have grown to 56 gold coins in the blink of an eye, I suddenly feel that those copper coins are completely unsightly, pure nouveau riche psychology. The crazy monsters in the night are indeed terrifying, but as long as the epic characters themselves do not die, with the boss-level mutant pet nail rake Elvis, there is no pressure to abuse them! casually go to the forest that Aunt Liu said, and retreat back to the city immediately whether you can find it or not. It is believed that the pleasure level will not drop below 40 points. If you can find a special item like [Stalls Permit], you can earn it, and it doesn't matter if you can't find it, enjoy the night view of the border forest at that time.
Of course, before leaving the city, you need to go to the warehouse first and throw all the messy items in your backpack into it, otherwise how will you collect the loot?
Each town and village in Reappearance of the Legend has a warehouse dedicated to the player. These warehouses are generally detached houses. The door is always unlocked and open 24 hours a day, and there is a storekeeper who specializes in storage for players. The storekeeper seems to be in shifts, and the daytime storekeeper in the border city is a beautiful girl named Xu Jing. It's easy to think of her as a player just by name, but she's really an NPC; At night, there is a middle-aged man with a hideous scar on his face, named Wang Meng. Each time a player opens their own 100-slot virtual warehouse through the warehouse manager, they will need to pay 1 copper to use it.
In addition to the storage and withdrawal function for players, the warehouse manager also has a banking function, which is specifically for the deposit and withdrawal of gold coins on players. The function of the bank in this game is to take good care of the player's gold coins, because the player's backpack is not completely safe, and many random events that may occur will forcibly take the player's money! Of course, there is no specific explanation on the official website of what random events are, and it is really sold. So the safest thing is to keep your money in the bank to be safe!
At this time, the players are resting, so you can use the warehouse without queuing up for epics. At the time of registration, Wang Meng, the warehouse manager, automatically collected 1 copper, did not feel pain, and decisively threw a large number of purchased raw materials into it. In an instant, there were only 37 bottles of Golden Creation Medicine (a small amount) stacked on top of each other in the backpack.
Coming out of the warehouse, the road passed by the village chief's house. Because when he came before, the village chief's house was dark, but now it seemed that a faint fire was faintly flashing from the window. Epic is a little curious, that old thing spent the night at the clothing store proprietress he knows today, and he may go home in the middle of the night? And even if he came home in the middle of the night, why didn't he light the lamp in the hall and use candles instead?
Epic, overloaded with curiosity, tiptoes to the window and peeks in through the gap.
It didn't matter if he looked at it, the person with the candle inside scared him!
This man was dressed in black, his face was covered with a black scarf and he couldn't see his face clearly, his hair was very short and only a plate inch, and his physique was a young and thin man. The man held a candle with a small flame in his left hand, and rummaged through the hall of the village chief's house with a cat waist, and after a while he entered the village chief's bedroom, and his figure disappeared from the window.
"Thief" is the name on his head.
"There are thieves in this game? Engage in dried shrimp? Epic was taken aback, crouching out the window and a little speechless. The dead old man of the village chief still has the mind to sleep in the concubine's house, I'm afraid that when I go home tomorrow, I can only see an empty room, right? Anyway, should I help catch this thief? Otherwise, tomorrow I will ask the village chief if the props for the pet trainer will be out of stock? But what level of monster is the thief? Won't it be very powerful and can't beat it?
After hesitating outside for a while, he heard footsteps inside, and immediately got up and looked through the window, and saw [thief] coming out of the bedroom with an oversized package and walking flexibly towards the door. It was clear that he had stolen enough to escape, which made Epic tense all at once.
He must not be allowed to escape! As soon as the idea popped into his head, he quickly came to the gate and quickly summoned the pet nail rake Elvis Presley.
"Squeak~~" The wooden door opened gently, and the [thief] with the thief head and thief brain was about to come out, and the nail rake Elvis Presley under the epic order waved the nail rake and hit it head-on.
“-50!” The blood-red number floated over the thief's head, and a hint of panic flashed in his eyes, and he quickly retreated to the village chief's house.
The HP turned out to be 2500! This girl is sure to explode good things! According to the inertia of the game, the one with thick blood is either an elite monster or a boss!
"Rush!" Seeing the damage caused by the nail rake Elvis, and the look of fear shown by the thief, Epic finally relented. And the possibility that [Thief] is the boss makes him full of fighting spirit.
"Meow!!" Nail Rake Elvis broke into the door with the nail rake and unceremoniously attacked the [thief] again.
“-44! -49! This time there was a combo effect, and the [thief] seemed to be enraged, glaring viciously at the epic who was following behind the nail rake Elvis, and suddenly threw away the huge package on his body, and a cold dagger appeared in his right hand, stabbing at the epic.
"Flatten him!!" Epic hurriedly moved his feet to hide behind Elvis Presley and ordered him to block the way, so that [Thief] had to fight with it.
“-2!” The thief's attack doesn't seem to be high, at least for the nail rake Elvis.
"Meow!!"
“-70!”
“-1!”
“-46! -50! ”
“-1!”
“-43! -42! ”
“-5! [Critical Hit]"
“-47! -49! ”
“-2!”
“-46! -46! ”
……
The attack power of [Thief] is really weak, and the output speed is not as fast as the automatic recovery of Rake Elvis. Seeing that the nail rake Elvis Presley had no less blood at all, but the [thief] had already lost blood like crazy, until there were less than 500 left, he turned around and left the battle with a sudden turn of mind, trying to escape to the second floor and jump out of the window.
It's just that this guy was super fast when he was fleeing for his life, and the nail rake Elvis couldn't catch up with him all of a sudden. In desperation, Epic threw the wooden sword in his hand violently.
“-1!” A pitiful number popped out of [the thief's] head.
Something magical happened! This [thief], who seemed to have a bit of intelligence and couldn't beat it and knew how to escape, turned around and stupidly bypassed the nail rake Elvis Presley and rushed to the epic.
"Meow!!"
“-46! -128! [Critical Hit] "The attack of the nail rake Elvis Presley also appeared with a critical hit, and the [Thief]'s remaining HP dropped again.
"Huh!" The bloody [thief] had a look of fear in his eyes, and once again gave up the epic and fled for his life in the direction of the gate.
"Don't let him run!" In a hurry, he grabbed the candlestick on the table next to him and threw it at the [thief].
"Smack!" The candlestick accurately hit the thief on the back of the head, and a "-1! ".
At the same time, Epic heard a strange chime in his ears.
【System】You take items without the consent of the owner of the house, stealing +1!
"Huh!" The [thief] who was hit turned around stupidly and raised his dagger to attack.
"Meow!!" Needless to say, the nail rake Elvis Presley naturally unceremoniously struck head-on.
“-42! -53! ”
[The thief] turned and ran again.
Epic reached out again and picked up a small stool and threw it out with all his might.
"Smack!"
“-1!”
The thief turned back again, and undoubtedly ran into the ferocious nail rake Elvis.
"Meow!"
“-300! 【Kill】"The attack of the nail rake Elvis Presley actually triggered a special attack with a very small chance!!
"Ah~~!!" The tragic [thief] bottomed out in blood, and finally fell to the ground with a scream. "Boom" burst out of debris.
【System】You take items without the consent of the owner of the house, stealing +1!

"What's the mess? Stealing a prop as a weapon? Epic was rather speechless, "But the death of an eyewitness doesn't count, that's too lax, isn't it?" Aren't you encouraging players to steal? Steal...... Hey! Can this game steal things? ”
Regardless, Epic quickly packed the [thief] into his backpack.
【System】You get 3 gold!
【System】You have obtained the lockpick-×13!
[Lockpicker]: In fact, you don't necessarily use a key to open the door, some people can use this small iron bar to open the treasure of the gods! Believe it or not, I believe it anyway!

"Hidden Class Shift Items?" There are a few other things that are nothing, but the [Medal of Thieves] among them makes the epic shine. Although [Thief] is simply weak, this is a hidden profession after all! The 1 in 100,000 chance of appearing! And maybe you can get some powerful skills after changing jobs? It's impossible for a game company to design a hidden class that doesn't work, unless they want to be drowned by the player's spit.
If it weren't for the fact that Epic itself was already a hidden profession, he would definitely not hesitate to go to Viper Valley to change jobs right now.
Putting away the props that the thief exploded, Epic was curious to pick up the package he had dropped when he was being chased and killed. As a result, the speechless thing was that as soon as the package was picked up, it was automatically equipped and carried behind him.
[System] You have obtained a special item [Thief's Backpack]!

[Thief's Backpack] should be stolen from the village chief's house, but this backpack obviously looks oversized, why is the capacity only 5 bars? Epic was a little puzzled, and while thinking about it, he took the [key to the village chief's house] to the bedroom on the second floor, and happened to see a wooden box placed under the bed.
[System] Use the [Village Chief's Key] to open the [Village Chief's Treasure Chest].
"Whoa!" As soon as it was opened, a huge list automatically popped up in front of me.
[Half Moon Scimitar], [Ebony Sword], [Light Armor......] (M), "Basic Swordsmanship", "Healing", "Poisoning", "Fireball", "Ring of Resistance", ......Horn Ring], [Small Bracelet], [Silver Bracelet], [Large Bracelet......], [Gold Necklace], [Traditional Necklace], [Black Crystal Necklace], [Yellow Crystal Necklace], [Amber Necklace], [Devil's Necklace]......
The list turned out to be five or six pages long, and it was certain that these were all rewards from the village chief's quest, as well as the items in the hidden shop. Because at the end of the list, there are the unique [Incubator] × 6, [Returning the Child Pill] ×13, [Amethyst] ×8, [Junior Pet Trainer Skill Pack] ×5, "Beginner Pet Skill Book" × 8, and [Junior Pet Equipment Pack] × 10.
"Gollum~~" Seeing these things, the epic eyes of the epic who originally just wanted to see what was bright flashed green, and his hand couldn't help but stretch out.
【System】You have obtained Incubator ×6!
【System】You take items without the consent of the owner of the house, stealing +1!
【System】Since no one witnessed your crimes, the crimes will be automatically cleared!
