It's only been a morning since Ulduar opened, and countless adventurers, teams, and guilds have already poured into Ulduar, and some of the leaders of the small areas have been captured, and the adventurers have begun to clear the area where the Flame Behemoths are entrenched, cleaning up all the mobs around them.

These mobs will be their main source of harvest for some time to come.

Generally speaking, in addition to the large guilds that are accustomed to hiding their secrets, ordinary small teams are still happy to share something with others, which is a very conducive atmosphere and atmosphere for land reclamation.

These first adventurers who had entered Ulduar for the first time knew nothing about everything, and certainly could not have known in advance what to pay attention to and what was best to do like Asher did.

The biggest problem that now plagues these adventurers, and even all the wilderness teams in the entire world, is the terrifying health bar problem of the first leader, the Flame Behemoth, that they have discovered.

It was a huge amount of blood that even the mythical Life Giant Tree could match, and before the appearance of the Flame Behemoth, if someone said that there was such a monster with such a high blood volume in Kadolin, other adventurers would definitely spray him without hesitation.

But now, the facts are in front of you, that almost terrifying Xue Liang, so that many adventurers just look at the fighting spirit at all, there is no battle at all, such a super boss, even if hundreds of thousands of people besiege it, you have to be careful, and such a long amount of blood makes it extremely difficult for him to kill.

Someone did the calculations. Even in the case of underestimating the armor of the Flame Behemoth, with the average attack power of a level seventy Legendary Master, it would take nearly 50,000 Legendary Masters to bombard indiscriminately for more than seven hours to kill the Flame Behemoth.

Find it. After checking, there was still no guild or team that dared to provoke the Flame Behemoth easily. Because once you enter the battle range, you will be attracted to the monster. It wasn't something that one guild could afford to eat, and everyone had to suffer with it, and they all walked around its perimeter from afar, looking for any possible tricks or tricks.

Ulduar's reclamation is in full swing. Many god-level masters entered it, and even Asher was busy with his own business, and at this time, there was one person who did not join the ranks.

Tower of Dawn, Eternal Bastion.

Hades walked silently down the street, turned a corner, walked towards an inn on the side of the road, and walked outside the door of the inn, where he gently pushed the door open and walked in.

The hotel was deserted, and Hades came in and walked straight to a table in the corner.

"Grandfather."

Hades bowed respectfully before sitting down.

Opposite Hades, sat a spirited, dignified white-haired old man, who watched Hades sit down with bright eyes, and then said slowly: "What's the matter with calling me in, you know I don't like to stay in this kind of place." ”

Obviously, this is the ruler of Amplosius, Hades's own grandfather, and Lei, who has a pivotal position in the entire imperial power, is still old and strong, and sits in charge of the overall situation.

"That's right." Hades pondered his words and said cautiously, "I recently suspect that there may be some kind of leak in the Empire. ”

As soon as Hades's voice fell, Ray widened his eyes slightly, stared at him for a moment, and shook his head categorically: "This is impossible." ”

"Do you remember Asher? About him... Instead of retorting, Hades asked.

"What you're going to say has to do with that young man?" Ouyang Lei said indifferently.

"Yes." Hades took a deep breath, "I think that his guild will lead to natural disasters or the early appearance of demon legions.

"In this world, civilization has become incomparably brighter. It is not impossible to say that it will attract the attention of those two parties. He may not know if it is the existence of some kind of mutation. The key to the decision of the world line"

Listening to Hades finish in one breath, Ray fell into a long silence.

After a long time, he spoke: "Our peaceful world was born under the pressure of our three parties, and we supervise and restrain each other. If it is because of him, it leads to the invasion of demons and natural disasters"

Hades couldn't find the words to refute it, but he was so adamant that he fell silent, thinking about why this was the case.

"In other words, kids." Ouyang Lei's wrinkled face showed a faint smile, "Even if the world is on the verge of crisis, don't you young people have me?" No matter if he is a deviant existence, the group of guys around him will not sit idly by.

...

In the mines of the treasure of Defia..

"What the hell is going on in this pit?"

Artoria stood on the ground, looking around at the darkness around her, and said in some amazement.

"Well, this should be the bottom of the pit." Ashur walked over and turned on the Dancing Light Technique, in this kind of flat terrain, even if there were monsters, the three of them could deal with it.

A faint glow illuminated the surroundings, and the three of them were standing at the bottom of a pitch-black pit, with man-made stone pillars in the far distance, and irregular stone slabs under their feet, and it was clear that they had dug here, and the whole work had stopped.

"My God, I kept crawling and crawling just now, and I thought this place was really bottomless." Artoria sat down on the ground and said with a sigh of relief. "I didn't think we would be able to come down."

As a thief, Vivien wears light leather armor, has high agility attributes, rock climbing is familiar to him, and Asher has flying skills, which is the easiest for him, among the three, only Artoria is exhausted, and now he has to rely on physical potions to recover his strength.

Vivien had already left the two of them and searched around, the bottom of the pit was very large, there might be a lot of things hidden, and there might be someone else who arrived first, Vivien's most important thing was to find Van Cleeff or some other thief's personal emblem and try to activate the Shadow Warframe.

If activated, it would be more suitable for Vivien than any Mythic gear, otherwise it would be a pile of scrap metal.

"Vivien searched, you rest first, I'll take stock of the harvest." Asher said to Artoria, then sat down on the ground as well, opened his inventory and began to look at what he had learned.

There was a translated list, and the efficiency of the action was indeed high, and along the way, Asher searched many warehouses, many of which were empty, but some still had ores. In the end, Asher had harvested more than 10,000 sets of essentia ores.

This is already a very terrifying number, the value of these essentia ores is incalculable, and it cannot be exchanged for gold coins at this stage, and this is only a small part, Ya Xiu estimates that 150,000 groups may not all exist, but 780,000 groups should have.

The other warehouses were either going to take a detour or go deeper and farther away, and Asher didn't go there. He was going to wait for the next time to send someone to pick it up, and he had to go down to the bottom of the pit to find out.

Coming to the bottom of the pit, their expedition was basically at the end, as long as they searched here and took away the useful things they found, the rest of Asher didn't have time to dwell too much.

Vivien's dual swords can also activate the entrance, and Asher is not afraid that there will be no next chance, and the elegy is only here for things like the Shadow Armor, and he has little interest in ores. As for those people from the Dark Awakening Guild, even if they didn't die, Asher was very skeptical that they would have the ability to find so many ores.

In addition to essentia ore, Asher also found warehouses for some obsidian mines. The stock was much smaller than the essentia ore, but there were nearly a hundred groups, and Asher packed all of these obsidian ores together.

Soon, Vivien, who had gone out to search, returned.

"How. Did you find any useful information? Or information about the rest of the Brotherhood of Defia's collections? Seeing that Vivien was also sitting down on the ground, Asher asked.

"I didn't find any information about the treasure, but I found something else." Vivien shook her head. Just when he was about to say something—

Asher suddenly raised his head and looked at the top of his head, the light in his hand flashed, and the staff suddenly flashed out, Asher held the staff tightly, and stretched out his hand to indicate that Vivien was silent.

Seeing Ashur's movements, Vivien and Artoria quickly held their breath, the latter got up from the ground, put down the giant shield and placed it on the ground, crouched down and hid behind the shield, looking overhead, and Vivien went straight into stealth.

"The thief is down." Asher spoke silently to his two teammates.

Ashur refers to the syndicate thief, Ashur and the others know almost nothing about him, only know that he is a very strong thief, Artoria is seriously injured and weak when he meets him, and it is very difficult to provoke, but now it is in the open terrain where he can play freely, and Ashur and the others do not need to be afraid of him.

As soon as Asher finished speaking, there was a slight ripple in the darkness in the distance ahead, and a dark figure slowly emerged, and this time all three of them could clearly see what he looked like—it was a small human thief who held a pair of twisted twin swords in his hands and wore a mask on his face.

This is a demon mask with a black body and red lines outlining the facial features, the demon face on the mask is not hideous and terrifying, but looks cold and fierce, this demon type is very unfamiliar.

"Since this is what the elegy found, we don't need to help him solve it." Artoria crouched behind the tower shield and said in the communication crystal.

Ashur held the staff and carefully retreated into the darkness beside him, his invisibility technique was still cooling, Ashur gently recited the incantation, sprinkling a large area of ink-like darkness, enveloping the three of them, using the dark spell to hide their figures.

That syndicate thief is powerful, but Ashur is not bad, the epic advanced level plus six pieces of mythical equipment, if it weren't for Ashur being weak, he would be able to directly bombard him from the front.

Artoria is right, this is an elegy, Asher They don't need to fight this thief, and they don't need to have accidents, Ashur uses the dark spell to prepare to avoid and not fight.

Just as Ashur was about to continue to retreat and leave here along the darkness, he suddenly felt someone pull his cloak, and when he looked back, Vivien was standing beside Ashur, pointing to the syndicate thief in front of him, and his usually calm face was full of surprise.

"Look at the mask he's wearing." Vivien suppressed the excitement in her tone and whispered.

Ashur looked back and looked at the mask again, the lines on the mask were a little abstract, Ashur didn't pay attention to it at first, just thought it was ordinary equipment, but now Vivian pointed it out, Ashur looked at it carefully, but under this look, it was more and more familiar.

"Shadow Demon Mask?"

At a certain moment, an extremely cold demon image flashed in Ashur's mind, causing Ashur's eyes to widen suddenly, looking at the mask, and suddenly recalling.

"The pair of one-handed swords in his hand are the fangs of the Shadow Demon." Vivien stared at the syndicate thief, her eyes unblinking, her palm already quietly touching the dagger at her waist.

"Plans have changed. Looks like we're going to have to go after him and see if we can blow these two things out. Asher suddenly stopped, no longer retreating, but began to light up.

There were a lot of surprises for Ashur here, although he hadn't found the treasures and treasures of the myth all over the place until now, but what he found now was already very unexpected.

The Shadow Fiend Set, the top epic set for the Rogue class, was famous before Kadolin and has now become the ultimate goal of many legendary thieves. This epic set has similar traits to Mythic gear – it also has a percentage bonus as it increases with your rank.

This is extremely rare among epic gears, with the exception of the Generalissimo set.

Secondly and more importantly, there is now a well-known mythical quest in Ravenhold Manor, and the first step is to collect a complete set of shadow demon suits, and if you can achieve it, you can trigger subsequent quests, and the final reward is a random mythical thief equipment.

That's enough to show how precious the Shadow Fiend set is. In Ashur's previous life, there were also many Heavenly Rank master-level thieves who had not collected them all, and Vivien had just started to collect them for a short time, even if she took advantage of the huge power and financial resources of the Tower of Dusk. He had only managed five of the eleven suits.

The Shadow Demon Mask is the head equipment with the highest stat bonus in this set of equipment, and the Shadow Fiend's Fang, as a weapon, is the soul of the entire set. Most of the special effects require the Fangs of the Shadow Fiend to be reflected.

Since I've seen it here, I can't let it go.

"This trip is supposed to be here to work for Vivien." Artoria teased helplessly. "Just the Shadow Warframe, now the Shadow Fiend Suit. Why is there no equipment for fighters here, alas. ”

Jokes aside, he still pulled out the sword of the gods behind his back, squatted behind the tower shield, and quietly switched his combat posture, waiting for Ashur's command to attack.

"Who called this the territory of the Brotherhood of Thieves?" Ashur also shrugged helplessly, "Wait a while, Vivien will go first, attract that thief to fight with you, I will try to sneak attack from the side, it is best to subdue him with one blow to avoid unnecessary accidents, Artoria, you wait for Vivian to go up, follow him to support, we ......"

Assie was quickly arranging his tactics, but the next second, his voice stopped abruptly.

The three of them stood in the darkness, staring ahead in astonishment.

Behind the syndicate thief, in the dark shadows, a shadow glowing with golden light suddenly flashed out, and the elegy appeared without pause, and the whip leg with explosive power kicked him in the back fiercely! The syndicate thief couldn't dodge and was kicked out of the back!

"Bang!"

A dull loud bang erupted, and the syndicate thief tumbled in mid-air, and then smashed directly into a stone pillar, and between the violent vibrations, the smoke and dust billowed up, and the elegy retracted its calf, suddenly turned into a blurred light and shadow, and accelerated forward!

Shadow Walk!

Seeing that Elegy almost began to attack this syndicate thief, the three of Ashur were almost stunned, especially Ashur, who showed some incredible expressions, he knew the strength of Elegy very well, and the explosive attack power just now was not like his normal level.

The elegy came to the stone pillar in an instant, and with a skillful reversal of the dagger in his hand, he slammed it inward with the hilt, and through the smoke and dust, Ashur could not see the battle clearly, but it was clear that his blow was missed, because almost at the same time, a palm reached out from the ruins and clamped his shoulder.

Elegy's form suddenly became illusory, and it broke away from the thief's palm, then re-solidified, and once again swung the dagger, trying to control the opponent with a chisel strike.

"This guy is also prepared, he has been planning for a long time, and this skill seems to be specially prepared to deal with this thief." Vivien watched the action of the elegiac battle and suddenly saw something.

Every time Elegy tries to control the other party, he fails, and then the syndicate thief will restrain him instead, and he immediately repeats the skill that can make him nothing, and after getting out of control, he tries again, and so on almost ten times.

Thanks to the fact that the syndicate thief was a puppet that had been made, if he was an adventurer, he would have been angry for being played like this.

Such skills are rare, and Ashur can't even name them, and the elegy must have been prepared for a long time.
