Chapter 45 Thieves are hard to prevent

Roland decided to strike first.

Now that it has been determined that Richero's city is mainly engaged in himself, Roland must not sit idly by.

In any case, at least get the first hand.

Of course, such an act will undoubtedly put Roland at some risk. Because Roland didn't know how much the city lord of Rizero knew about him, he might fall into a well-arranged trap if he attacked rashly.

Although Roland has the boss template, it doesn't mean that Roland can't be seconded.

Since he hasn't been attacked so far, Roland doesn't know if he has the system to calculate damage when he is attacked according to the in-game algorithm or what.

In the Land of the Gods, all undetected attacks are considered sneak attacks, with the maximum amount of floating damage by default, ignoring half of the defense, and then multiplying by a coefficient of 2 to 6 depending on the level of the sneak attack trait.

The main reason why the Radiant Hand that Roland encountered before the crossing was able to single-handedly swipe their squad was that all of the Radiant Hand attacks must have sneak attack. Combined with the 3+6=9 damage coefficient of the Assassination Master and the Legendary Weakness Strike, Roland, as a vice-tan, was directly seconded with an elbow blow and a backstab...... Even the flare is only stacked in one layer.

While normal Stalkers don't have this level of terrible damage, if played well, they can still kill in seconds, especially against enemies below the Gold tier.

This is also the reason why there are still a large number of stealth professions in this world where the main perception attribute is all pro-son.

According to Roland, there are only three professions in this world: the caster of spells, the cannon fodder to protect the masters, and the mob to assassinate the masters.

Although with Roland's perceptual attributes. Ordinary stalkers would have been spotted by him when they approached him - but in fact, if Roland had been left to assassinate himself. With his current level, he can do it completely.

Since it can counter stealth with the perceptual attribute, then the same is true. There must be some kind of stealth technique that counters the perceptual attribute. There is no such thing as an absolutely invincible skill in this world, and even the people of Dusk, who have all kinds of undead nature that are difficult to solve, will die one day.

But Roland has plenty of confidence in his actions.

The city of Richero is not unfamiliar to Roland. Roland had also lived here for half a month, and had also entered Orwell's private bedroom. He was perfectly aware of the building structure inside and the triggers for some of the traps.

This secret fortress that could easily hunt down silver-tier stalkers was like a fishing net for Roland, full of loopholes-

Roland glanced at the distribution of the patrol guards from a distance, and then he shook his head, giving up on the intention of breaking through from the front.

Each patrol guard must have three of his colleagues in sight at once, and each of them is watched by at least two people. Like iron powder scattered in the magnetic field, it is loosely distributed around the City Lord's Mansion.

Their stations are not very dense. If you look at it for a veteran stalker, you can see the gaps at a glance.

But Roland knew. It's not a design loophole, it's a clear trap.

Because the loopholes in this seemingly well-established surveillance system are so deliberate and obvious, stalkers are bound to be doubly vigilant when traversing these blind spots. Brace yourself and be aware of your surroundings.

But the stalkers didn't know that Count Orwell wanted them to do it.

Once they take a good look at their surroundings, they are fooled.

Doyd's runes are carved into dark places, hidden in thick shadows, and can be triggered by a person's gaze.

Once a certain number of runes are triggered in a short period of time, it can be concluded that this person has bad intentions - after all, a person who has no ghosts in his heart will not keep looking at those dark corners where people can hide.

In order to prevent inadvertently offending anyone, they will not be harmed in any way. Instead, they will get lost in the sight of those patrols.

This is the great magic known as the Mystery Lock. This divine technique does not belong to the confusion control type of divine art, so even if it has a high will attribute, it is still meaningless when facing the verification of this divine art.

It can be said that in the type of divine art of protection and sealing. The Lost Lock is the highest-level magic technique.

Although the judgment conditions of the Lost Lock are extremely harsh, once a certain harsh cycle condition is reached, the Lost Lock will be established on its own. So that the existence inside is locked in indefinitely - unless the stability of the mystery is wrong and the cycle is broken. The people inside will be released. Despite the slight difference in scale, this magic is actually exactly the same as the Oak Locks that trapped the scourge Del Ramos.

And because the Mystery Lock itself has no lethal power. It's just to lead people to another path, so it doesn't give those who infiltrate an ominous premonition. If the infiltrators weren't malicious, they wouldn't have killed them outright.

Although this is not as threatening as a simple killing trap, it can save Count Orwell a lot of trouble. Most people in this world are more troublesome to kill than not to kill.

However, Roland knew that the lock set by Count Orwell had a fatal flaw - that is, it could only be triggered by sight.

Roland remembered that there were two hundred and twenty runes on the exterior walls and more than five hundred on the inside of the house. It can be said that if no one is carrying it, anyone will get lost in an instant, and be led to a specific location that is placed under surveillance like a puppet. But there are nearly 800 runes, and what they all have in common is that they can only be triggered with their eyes.

Orwell himself was naturally aware of this flaw. Therefore, he specially designed the internal structure of his home to be very complex, and also arranged some more retro traps.

But his set of defense facilities obviously ignores the setting of "house thief" -

No one in the whole of Ricello knew the terrain of his home better than Orwell himself.

Roland's eyes were closed, and he didn't even need to confirm with his peripheral vision, and moved forward quickly with only experience.

From a small dark corner, he entered the blind spot of the patrol's vision. The patrolmen were obviously aware of the characteristics of Orwell's house, and although they saw Roland deliberately walking into the dark alley, they didn't care.

They knew that Roland would have to come back sooner or later.

Roland's job was simple. It is to kidnap Count Orwell and then investigate whether he really has anything to do with the devil.

Of course, the assassination of Count Orwell was impossible.

He acted on the orders of the Marquis of Sayya, as long as the matter did not make a big fuss, he had the Marquis of Saya to resist. Everyone knew that this man was a man under the command of the Marquis of Saya. Even Count Orwell himself could not have focused his hatred on Roland.

But if Roland did kill him, the nature of the matter would have changed.

The death of a nobleman will usher in a series of great changes. Whatever the end result, there will inevitably be a large number of people affected in the early stages of change.

At that point, someone will have to come out and take the blame.

If Marquis Saya is not stupid, he will naturally not be able to jump out. The only one who bears the blame may be Roland himself.

And Roland is a foreigner after all.

Unless Roland wanted to muddy the waters, he couldn't hurt Earl Orwell. Even if something happens to him, Roland must protect him. (To be continued.) )
