41.Chapter 41: Passing by
Roddy even had the feeling of being in a dream at this moment - he had actually seen this necklace before, it was something that was displayed in the equipment column when he checked his equipment the day after he was reborn, because it was a simple "white" ordinary equipment and he didn't look closely, just as it was an heirloom of "Lodi", and it had no other purpose than decoration.
But now, this thing actually comes with its own skills?
You can't blame Roddy for being careless, any equipment in "Ripper" that can release skills will not be of "white" quality nine percent of the time. It can even be said that the whiteboard equipment can cast skills, and Roddy has only heard of the game for five years, and has never encountered it in person!
What is stealth? It is the signature skill of the advanced class "Assassin"! Moreover, the stealth technique learned after the level 10 transfer to the assassin is only level 1, and the level 3 "stealth technique" means that once it is cast, the enemy with a level difference of less than 6 will almost be able to detect it!
Roddy didn't understand why this necklace could have such a high-level stealth skill, he looked at it carefully, and was even more pleasantly surprised to find that it didn't have any release conditions, that is to say, no matter who this necklace was given to, it could activate the level 3 stealth attached to the necklace directly by reciting the release spell!
Raising his head, Francis and the others had already stepped towards him, and saw that the distance was less than thirty meters.
Roddy made a decision almost immediately, without saying a word, he reached out and took off the necklace, and threw it back seemingly casually, but he pretended to cough, covered his mouth with his hand, and whispered: "Catch it, put it on!"
Sally, who was originally extremely nervous, didn't see what Roddy threw clearly, and was stunned for a moment, watching the necklace fall on the ground in front of her.
"Phew!"
The sudden sound of the crockpot shattering startled Sally, and she was so nervous that her legs were a little sore, and she almost screamed, but then she realized... In the distance, a horse led by a group of knights knocked over a jug on the side of the road.
Roddy almost shouted "God help me" in his heart, and when he saw Francis and the soldiers looking back at the broken jug, he immediately turned his head and waved his hand frantically to signal Sally to put on the necklace—
Sally didn't think much of it, stooped down to pick up the necklace, and hastily put it around her neck. Before he could react to why Roddy was doing this, he heard Roddy's words from the front:
"Follow me and don't ask why—'Ol'kla'!".
When Francis and the others turned their gaze back to the front, everything in front of them... It doesn't seem to be any different from just now.
Luo Di tried to calm the excitement in his heart, did not look back, did not speak, just like a mercenary who instinctively envied the noble team after seeing the noble team, looked at the cavalry team in front of him with wide eyes, sideways out of the way, raised his head and looked at the military horses and the equipment on the soldiers with fascination, and then with the other party... Wrong passes.
Francis and Roddy were only three meters closer, and even Roddy could smell the faint perfume that nobles often sprayed on him. The other party's gaze swept over him, and it seemed that he stayed on the angular arch he was carrying for half a second, and after confirming that there was nothing abnormal, he looked away expressionlessly and continued to walk forward.
This was the first head-to-head "confrontation" between Roddy and Francis. It's just that the Earl in front of him doesn't seem to think that this unassuming mercenary in front of him is the culprit who disrupted all his plans - let alone believe it... Sally, who he was looking for, was less than two meters away from him at this time.
Stealth works.
This skill that could only be used by advanced assassins completely obscured Sally's figure at this time, because the level 3 stealth technique was enough for Francis to stand in front of her without noticing anything unusual. Sally, standing still and holding her breath, not even daring to look directly at Francis, felt that the ten seconds had passed incredibly long - she could see her body disappear from view, even the shadow of the setting sun that should have elongated...
Sally, whose fingers were cold, gradually recovered from the tension she had just made, and she saw Roddy in front of her still walking forward as if nothing had happened, and Sally instinctively following him. The two of them were still in this state when they passed through the entrance of the village guarded by the guards - the guards only saw Roddy in mercenary attire, but they didn't notice Sally behind him at all.
And walked out of Kiger Town in such a thrilling way, and before Sally's "stealth technique" failed, and she herself hadn't reacted, Roddy grabbed her arm without saying a word and suddenly started running - the two of them turned directly onto the remote sheep intestine path outside the town and rushed out...
It wasn't until they were completely out of the confines of Kiger that the two finally stopped. They breathed heavily, looked like dehydrated fish, and sat on the ground...
For a long time, neither of them said anything, and only the sound of wheezing like bellows could be heard in the air.
The sense of happiness for the rest of their lives after the catastrophe gradually rose, and the two raised their heads at the same time, as if they had their hearts in their hearts.
Roddy opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but found that Sally opened her arms and pounced directly - she hugged Roddy fiercely, and her arms tightly wrapped around his body, as if this was the only way to soothe the palpitations in her heart.
Roddy froze in place like a fool, feeling as if he had been electrocuted all at once, and his mouth was open like a toad that had been punched. The faint fragrance on Sally's body rushed straight to his nose, giving him a feeling that his brain was "dead" all of a sudden.
"No... It's okay...... It's really okay. ”
Roddy didn't know how to comfort her, and patted her on the back stiffly and carefully, while Sally quickly let go of her hand, seeing his panicked look, the original panicked expression gradually disappeared, and then the corners of her mouth grinned.
"Hahaha..."
As if to exert the unspeakable pressure in her heart just now, she smiled and leaned back, and even had no manners at all.
Just when Roddy thought that it was time to remind the other party not to laugh and get angry, Sally finally stopped consciously and immediately reached out and took off the necklace.
"Oh, your necklace, go on. ”
Handing Roddy the necklace that had saved her life, Sally looked at Roddy and whispered with curiosity, "It seems to be a magic item." You know I'm going to ask why you have such a thing on you... But after thinking about it, I think it's not convenient for you to answer, so don't say it. ”
But she then glanced at Roddy's neck and muttered, "This magic necklace...... It can fetch a sky-high price at an auction in Holier City. ”
Although there was no covetousness, Sally's tone was slightly reproachful, as if she was complaining about why Roddy didn't tell her in advance that she had such a hole card - but in fact, Roddy was also wondering about the origin of this item at the moment, he was full of doubts and puzzles about this sudden emergency necklace, and even had an inexplicable fear.
This fear stems from the unknown, as the necklace seems to be out of Roddy's perception of "rippling", so much so that he is completely unable to judge its origin.
The equipment level classification in "Ripp" is detailed and has its own naming rules, whether it is a PVE player, a life player or a PVP player, they all know these rules very well, but at this time, looking at the state of this necklace, Luo Di is completely at a loss-
Mysterious necklace
Necklace unique
Uses: Perform Stealth (Level 3) for 60 seconds.
Activation spell: Ol'kla
"The necklace of unknown origin seems to have gone through many years, but the power it was once endowed with has not been lost. ”
Cooldown: 30 minutes (28 minutes remaining).
Compared to the previous attribute, Roddy saw that it had an additional description of the cooldown, but this proved that the necklace was extraordinary - because most of the magic items in the game, except for those that passively increase attributes or auras, nine out of ten items that actively release skills have a "number of uses" limit.
Roddy used to have a bracer that could use a "cobweb" similar to Spider-Man's, which was an excellent tool for controlling skills in PVP, but after using this skill ten times, the bracers became completely mortal, and there was no such thing as a skill release.
Any item that can cast a skill an infinite number of times means that it is worth more than any magic item of the same level, not to mention that this "mysterious necklace" is now accompanied by an extremely useful stealth skill!
When faced with most monsters or enemies, no one would imagine how useful this necklace would be for Roddy.
What kind of person was Lodi before Roddy was reborn in him? Looking back, it was just an ordinary guy with dead parents, a lonely man, a feather on the border scouts, and nothing else, not to mention ambition - so where did this necklace come from?
Roddy looked at the simple necklace on his chest and frowned.It stands to reason that its attribute color is not too much even if it is a blue prefix that represents "excellent", and if the skill level is higher, it is enough to mark it as "epic" level purple, but in fact it is a white color that represents "ordinary".
Could it be that there is a mystery in this thing?
The black metal chain is made of unknown material, and the shape of the pendant is also inconspicuous, it is a three-piece black diamond-shaped decoration, and no other information can be seen. Roddy sighed, as if to say to himself, "That's what I knew this thing could make you sneak."
"It's clear to activate the spell, is it the first time you've used it?"
Sally is a girl who gets to the point. She is not an illiterate village girl in the countryside, but a noble girl who also has a unique opinion on magical items, and the keyword "activation spell" is the key to Roddy's ability to make her stand here in peace, if she just wore a necklace and didn't know how to activate stealth, then now Sally may have encountered an accident.
Roddy couldn't argue with this question, he couldn't say anything like "I can see the attributes and instructions of the equipment directly, just read it", so in the end he just shook his head and didn't answer.
