Chapter 347: Strange Thief Thirteen
"Thirteen?" said Ti Xinliel, blinking widely, "Does it have any special meaning?"
"I don't know. Leach shrugged, "But every time that thief leaves this mark, I think it must have meant something special to him." And because of this habit, those who have been stolen have given him the nickname 'Strange Thief Thirteen'. Do you know, the name of 'Monster Thief Thirteen' is now very loud in the Federation, and many people are eager to catch him, and it is said that the amount of reward for him has been nearly one million Baileys!"
"Why is that?" said Shayeqi, "Even if he stole a lot of rich and noble families, he wouldn't be so valuable, would he be so valuable?"
"It's not a joint bounty, it's a federal government that issued a bounty order for itself, not something that the people who stole it made up themselves. ”
Leach's words made everyone curious, and they all asked what was going on.
Seeing this, Leach smiled and explained: "In fact, when I first knew that those thefts were committed by the same person, those powerful people who had not yet been stolen strengthened their own precautions, and at that time, the name of 'Strange Thief Thirteen' was only circulated in a small circle, and it was not as loud as it is now. What really made him famous, causing all the people who thought they had some skills to want to catch him, and even the federal government began to pay attention to his incident, was when he went to steal a veteran nobleman of the military in Palmeira, and was accidentally surrounded by a large number of elite soldiers armed to the teeth, just when everyone thought that he was unable to escape this time and could only be captured, he did not hesitate to break out. ”
"And the owner of the house that was stolen is not the kind of soft egg who has never been on the battlefield, on the contrary, it is not an exaggeration to say that the man is experienced in a hundred battles, and he is the descendant of a real military family, and when he saw that the 'Strange Thief Thirteen' was still delusional to escape at that time, he did not hesitate to order the soldiers to shoot, anyway, he did not have to catch it alive. ”
"But in front of everyone's eyes, the 'Strange Thief Thirteen', who was frantically fleeing in front of him, heard the sound of the guiding weapon firing, and he didn't know where to take out a huge shield, blocked all the attacks, and then successfully escaped. ”
"Since then, the name of 'Monster Thief Thirteen' has really begun, but not because he has never missed a mistake in stealing things, but many people have speculated that he has a spatial artifact in his hand. ”
"Space artifact?" Hearing this, Saya showed a look of surprise on his face for the first time, "Hasn't that always existed only in legends, how could it really exist?"
In the historical records of the Hine Continent, there is indeed a class of artifacts that have no offensive or defensive effects, and can only be used simply to hold things, collectively known as space artifacts.
Until now, human beings, no, it should be said that among all the known intelligent races, there has never been a space mage, space magic has always been considered a series of magic that only gods can master, and the records of space artifacts are the best proof of this.
Legend has it that the space artifact was made by the gods in order to store some miscellaneous items, but the strange thing is that although there is a clear record, no one has ever seen the shadow of the space artifact, and this is not even the sacred court that claims to be the land of the gods.
Over time, it was widely believed that space artifacts only existed in legends, and were not accessible to mortals.
But there are also many people among the mages who think that as long as they can find a space artifact, and then understand the mysteries of space magic, they can access the realm of the gods, so they have been committed to finding the space artifact, and there are many people in this group who have become legends in the Hein Continent, and belong to the kind of heavyweights who can make the continent tremble with a cough.
It is conceivable that as soon as the news of the appearance of the space artifact came out, it was naturally a cloud movement in all directions, and those legendary figures were not very easy to grab by themselves because of their face, but those powerful people who had some access to people at that level would not let go of this God-given opportunity to hug their thighs, and naturally they wanted to come out on top.
So, with the help of well-intentioned people, almost half of the federation is arresting the "Strange Thief Thirteen", ostensibly in the name of catching the thief, but in fact, the real purpose is just to get the space artifact in the hands of the "Strange Thief Thirteen", after all, if it is just to catch a thief, even if he commits more crimes, it will not be so exciting.
And this is why Gondoguna's inventory will be so strict, not all because the "Strange Thief Thirteen" came here to steal things, but more because the officials here want to make a big contribution.
“...... As for whether the 'Strange Thief Thirteen' really has a space artifact in his hand, I don't know, anyway, the high-level of the Federation thinks he has it, hehe, I sympathize with the 'Strange Thief Thirteen' now, after all, he is not bad. It's a pity that he was hunted down by the entire Federation, and I don't know how long he can hold out......"
"Isn't that good?" Tali seemed to remember the theft of the Tower Hill Orphanage, pouting and dissatisfied, "Who did you hear about this, that 'Strange Thief Thirteen' always steals from other people, can this be called good?"
"Because I've heard that this 'Monster Thief Thirteen' is a thief, and he divides everything he steals to the poor, which is why he only steals money and not the more valuable collectibles, because it is useless to steal it. While stealing isn't a good thing, it can't be said he's a bad guy, right?"
Originally, Leach just wanted to tell everyone what he had heard, but he didn't expect that Tali, who was still quite resistant to "Strange Thief Thirteen", immediately changed his attitude 180 degrees after hearing it: "In this case, then he is really a good person! No, such a good person must not be arrested." If only I could meet him in the future, I must worship him as a teacher!"
Putting aside Tali, who has been completely caught in the girl's fantasy and can't extricate herself, on the other hand, after listening to Leach's story about "Strange Thief Thirteen", Saya has a new question: they are obviously here to find Tavi, why did Leach waste so much saliva about the "Strange Thief Thirteen", the two don't seem to have any intersection, right?
"I'm not talking nonsense when I talk about Thirteen Thieves," Leach explained, "The Tywi we're looking for has a lot to do with Thirteen Thieves......"
