"Alan, pour us two cups of almond cocoa." After Yi Hui sat down, Argent did not continue to talk about Yi Hui's report card, but beckoned his assistant to serve them a drink first, "Let's talk while drinking." He said to Yi Hui.

Yi Hui sat down in the chair opposite Argent's desk, turned his report card to face him, and looked at the conspicuous bold text that he was finally assessed as a "Level 1 thief", Yi Hui was embarrassed.

At this time, the almond cocoa had already been served, and the steam in the low cup of the clay handle was wrapped in the strong fragrance of almonds and cocoa. However, at this time, Yi Hui's eyes were locked on this "not very decent" report card, and he was not in the mood to taste this drink at all.

"Congratulations, you've become an official Level 1 Thief, and you've made progress." Argent slowly sipped the hot drink in the cup, and said to Yi Hui jokingly as his fingers tapped on the table.

"Well, I'm sorry...... I'm still too far behind. Yi Hui put the report card in his hand on the table and didn't look at it anymore, he held the clay cup with both hands and felt the hot drink in the cup, the stimulation of the warm palms of his hands, lowered his head and didn't dare to look directly at Argent. This blow made him very frustrated, as the saying goes, "if you lose your will for a while, you will be frightened", at this time Yi Hui has completely lost the conceit of "I have the system in the world".

"Don't worry too much, who hasn't had a process of progress?" Argent comforted Yi Hui, "Do you know why I asked you to come here?" I didn't just ask you to come here to get your transcript. ”

"That's ......" Yi Hui looked up at Argent, who couldn't read any more information from Argent's calm gaze.

After taking another sip of the hot drink, Argent said to Yi Hui: "You have also seen that in this mode of the thief professional qualification examination, you are graded with the lowest score, so you got the result of 'Level 1 thief'." You may be wondering: why not grade the highest subject or grade it average? This is due to the characteristics of our class of thieves and the total number of people in the class. I won't talk to you about that. ”

"What I want to tell you is that you, Yi Hui, as a thief, have a unique advantage - excellent stealth ability - which I have long noticed. At the same time, you also see your shortcomings, right? ”

Yi Hui nodded deeply, he had already experienced his own problems from the exam results, and he had already begun to think about how to solve them.

"Well, we can't let this problem continue, and since we have found the problem, then we have to solve it. To be honest, I haven't seen anything like you in a long time...... Special thieves too. I'm intrigued by your stealth skills, and I'm annoyed by your basic qualities, and if you are allowed to mess around like this, I can tell you very clearly - you can't go down the path of thieves. You focus too much on skills and neglect the training of your own qualities. Of course, you are not to blame, it is caused by a lack of education. ”

"It's hard for me to say how to be a good thief, but I want to show you something, and I hope you'll be inspired by it." Argent stood up after speaking, and Yi Hui noticed that Argent was not wearing the black suede cloak like the last time they met, and was directly dressed in a strong suit, "Come on, let's go back to the examination room and have a look." ”

Argent led Yi Hui to the stealth examination room, and he ordered the staff to open the door. As soon as they entered the exam room, the door shut.

The examination room is still the same as the original examination room, and Yi Hui is very familiar with it.

Argent pointed to the examination room and said to Yi Hui: "Now let's review the process of your exam, the referees in the audience have been removed, and I will personally invigilate the exam for you." ”

"Retake the exam?" Yi Hui said.

"No, it's along the route of the exam again, and I'll point out your problems one by one." Argent said. "Now you start stealing, I'll start looking for you in 5 seconds to see if you can reach the finish line again." After saying that, Argent turned around and turned his back to Yi Hui.

"Okay." Yi Hui is still quite confident in stealth, because his stealth skills come from the system extraction, and there is no trace of this stealth mode at all, and he thinks that Argent can't find him. He cast the "Deception Magic", quickly leaped forward for a distance and stopped, continued to wait for the cooldown, and at the same time entered the "Invisible Wings" state, waiting for the "Deception Magic" to cool down, and as soon as Yi Hui flickered again for a distance.

Five seconds passed, and Argent turned around, and he looked around for a week without finding any trace of Yi Hui. He walked forward slowly, standing where Yi Hui had been standing, pondering for a moment, and walking in one direction.

Yi Hui was crouching on the ground waiting for his skills to cool down, and when he looked back, he saw Argent walking in the direction he was crouching. From Argent's sight, Yi Hui knew that he hadn't really discovered himself, but the route Argent was walking was getting closer and closer to him.

"What's going on?" Yi Hui was shocked, "Could it be that there is a flaw in my concealment skills?" No, he can't see me, but what's the problem? ”

Time passed by seconds, and the skill cooldown time of "Deception Magic" was getting closer and closer, but Yi Hui's mood was not half a point relaxed because the skill cooldown was almost there.

Because, Argent has found a distance of less than ten meters from him.

Finally, the "Trick of Deception" cooled down, Yi Hui couldn't wait to raise the red smoke and run away, and Agent, who was approaching him step by step, really put too much pressure on him.

When Argent was looking for Yi Hui, red smoke rose in front of him, and he knew that this was a precursor to Yi Hui's stealth skills, so he quickly flew towards the place where the red smoke was rising. Argent did not advance in a straight line, he leaped quickly like a nimble bat, dragging a curved black trajectory behind him, and from the side, Argent's breakthrough seemed to go around four or five turns, but it was so fast.

Yi Hui continued to sprint forward a few steps in stealth, then stopped and waited for the "invisible wings" state to activate. He couldn't go any longer, the stealth time provided by "Deception Magic" was only a short 3 seconds, and he needed another 2 seconds to activate "Invisible Wings" so he could only run fast for 1 second.

At the moment of standing, Yi Hui turned around and saw Argent dragging a black track, although Argent's gaze did not lock on him, but it was obvious that Argent knew his general location. "Here we are...... Oops. ”

Lowering his head to look at the ground, Argent followed Yi Hui's footprints on the ground all the way, and where the footprints disappeared, Argent stopped and stopped moving, he looked at what seemed to be a blank position and said slowly: "Do you come out by yourself or will I catch you out?" ”

The empty space that Argent was staring at writhed, and Yi Hui's figure appeared from the void. After only two jumps and being caught by Argent, Yi Hui found it unbelievable.

"How did you find me?" Yi Hui asked, he was very puzzled by the question.

Argent pointed to the traces of Yi Hui's walk on the ground and said, "Although your concealment is almost perfect, and your stealth speed is also very fast, there are many places that you haven't noticed. First of all, I can't hear your footsteps when you enter the stealth, which I don't think I can completely silence, which I admire. But you didn't notice the pebbles on the ground as you walked, and although you didn't make a sound, the sound of objects colliding exposed you. I've heard the sound of you touching these pebbles about three or four times. Second, your route, I don't understand why you can stealthily and stealthily walk without relying on the environment, but the route you choose has floating dust in the places where it passes, and these floating dust reflects your footprints. Not choosing a route can be fatal for a thief, and maybe the next thing you'll step on is not dust, but a trap. The third point, your stealth movement is too big, obviously there are also flaws in your skills, although it can be seen from the route you travel that your stealth seems to have a jump surname, but the red smoke that activates it is simply cumbersome, maybe this is also the limit of your skills, I don't comment on this, but you have to think of your own solution. ”

After listening to Argent's analysis, Yi Hui suddenly realized, thinking that stealth is really not a simple science, it seems that in addition to lacking the physical fitness of a qualified thief, he also lacks insight into the environment. Relying on "fraud magic" and "invisible wings", it is true that others cannot detect Yi Hui, but this kind of stealth that relies entirely on skills is simply full of flaws in the eyes of professional thieves.

"Now, then, you come to me." "I'll give you an example. ”

The two returned to the starting point, Yi Hui turned his back, and Argent began to enter a stealth state. Five seconds later, Yi Hui turned around, and he also found no trace of Argent.

With his senses, Yi Hui looked around, trying to find clues about Argent's sneaking around. But unfortunately, Yi Hui didn't find anything.

A slight collision sound attracted Yi Hui's attention, and Yi Hui thought to himself: "Ah, this is the sound of objects colliding, by the way, in that direction." Yi Hui rushed along the sound, although he didn't have the erratic feeling of Argent, and his steps were very fast after being trained in the Black Forest.

When he arrived at the approximate location where the voice came from, Yi Hui searched around with a twelve-point spirit, but still did not find Argent's location.

Half a minute passed, and Yi Hui almost gave up looking. A hundred meters away, in this closed examination room, Argent's voice was so clear: "No need to look for it, I would have dumped you a long time ago." At my speed, I can move to the finish line in this time, you have no objection to that, right? ”

"There are no objections." Yi Hui said.

"So, were you attracted by the subtle sound of the collision? What a good student to draw inferences from. Don't deny it, I saw it. Argent returned to Yi Hui's side, "Isn't it?" ”

"Yes." Yi Hui said.

Argent looked into Yi Hui's eyes and said, "Remember, the purpose of stealth is to get to the location you need to reach without the other party noticing, and misleading the other party's attention is also part of stealth in order to make the other party not aware of you. I hope you can think of more from this example. ”
