Chapter 235: Clifford
"Then kill him!" Luo Sheng responded indifferently: "Isn't the main target of our coming here?"
Although Bunier and Lennon specially called Luo Sheng to participate in this operation against the Tamil Duke this time, so that Luo Sheng could share the merits of this operation, Luo Sheng knew very well that if he did not have actual combat exploits, even if Bunier and Lennon were the two hosts who intended to help, he would not get much benefit. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info After all, the Nine Rings White Tower acts, and they basically follow the rules, Bunier and Lennon can provide some opportunities for Luo Sheng within the scope of their authority, but they can't allocate meritorious services to Luo Sheng out of thin air, and how much they really get depends on Luo Sheng's own performance.
And in this kind of operation, the greatest battle achievement is undoubtedly to defeat the strong enemy of the Golden Rank. Among the four Gold-Order strong enemies, including Tamil, the Gold-Order warrior Clarence in charge of foreign affairs has been taken down in advance by Bunier and Yarlin and others, and has taken control of the army under his control. Both Tamil himself and the gold-tier mage Shazo are inside the ducal castle and are targeted by the likes of Bunier and Lennon. Therefore, the gold-level thief Clifford who is currently guarding the Qingteng Manor is actually the battle exploits that Bunier prepared for Rason and Scarlett. After taking down this loyal henchman of the Tamil Duke, Luo Sheng is qualified to share the merits of this operation with other golden ranks.
"It seems that Luo Sheng, you know everything very well!, but the thieves of the golden rank are not so easy to kill!" Scarlett said with a slight emotion.
Among the many professions, the combat effectiveness of thieves may not be the strongest, but the ability to save their lives and escape is definitely one of the best. Especially after stepping into the golden level, thieves can basically master some shadow laws, and while the stealth and stealth ability is greatly improved, they can also use the power of shadows to complete some special skills, and their life-saving ability is greatly increased. It may not be difficult to defeat a thief in the same rank, but it is not easy to completely kill a gold-tier thief.
In fact, the reason why Scarlett agreed to partner with Rasson and give a part of her merits to Rasen, in addition to Bounier's order and Quinnier's face, the main reason is that although Scarlett is sure to defeat Coolford, she is not sure that she can leave Coolford's life. And this time against the Tamil Duke's action, the request of the Nine Rings White Pagoda is to catch it all. Maybe a few non-core Silver Rank can be ignored, but the four Gold Rank masters are absolutely not allowed to escape from Ascension.
"It's not easy to kill, it's not necessarily hard to kill! The most important thing is to catch the thief's figure. Since we're here, Miss Scarlett, you should be ready for everything, right?" Luo Sheng said lightly.
The reason why the Golden Tier Thieves have a strong ability to save their lives is not because of their strong combat power, but because they can escape into the shadows almost at any time, avoiding enemies, and they have the move of Shadow Jump, which can break through most of the enchantment blockades, so it is difficult to trap them. In fact, in a head-on battle, unless the thief himself is amazingly skilled, the combat power and defense of the average gold-rank thief are not comparable to that of a warrior of the same level. Therefore, if you can accurately grasp the thief's body and make him unavoidable, it is even easier to deal with thieves than against warriors of the same rank.
Of course, it is definitely not an easy thing to catch the traces of thieves, especially after advancing to the Golden Rank, the thieves' shadow fighting qi has generally fused some of the shadow laws, and the control of the power of shadows has been greatly improved, and the general anti-concealment methods, such as phosphors, flares, etc., have no great effect. Even if the druid's elven fire is specifically used for anti-invisibility, if the caster's level is not enough, it will be instantly erased by the shadow fighting energy of the golden level, and it will not have any anti-concealment effect.
However, Scarlett, as an elite master of the Nine Rings White Tower, is also a gold-level thief, and must have a way to deal with the thieves' various methods. Otherwise, Scarlett wouldn't have taken on the task.
"I've got a plan against the thieves, but I need someone to create an opportunity for me!" Scarlett said with a smile.
The two of them cooperated to deal with Coolford, a gold-level thief, either by directly joining forces to attack, striving not to give Clifford a chance to escape stealth, and directly killing each other. Either one person will fight the thief first, draining Clifford's strength and skills to attract the thief's attention, and the other person will be on the side and seize the opportunity to assassinate. In the first way, if the two of them can't complete the kill in the first place, Collie Fu will definitely escape and escape. To be on the safe side, Scarlett clearly wanted to go the second way.
And if the second method is used, it means that the person who strikes first will have to fight Clifford head-on, creating an opportunity for the second person to assassinate, and it will pay a lot, but it is very likely that Clifford will not be able to kill, and he will not get the greatest credit, which is obviously a relatively loss-making 'dirty job'. And Scarlett obviously didn't want to suffer this loss.
"Understood. I'll take the lead. Miss Scarlett, you can sweep the formation from the sidelines, and just intercept Clifford. Luo Sheng understood what Scarlett meant, and responded calmly.
Scarlett did this, although it meant to compete for greater merit, but it was also to be more secure. After all, although Luo Sheng's personal combat power is not inferior to the ordinary Golden Rank at the moment, the various equipment and treasures in his hand are very few. Not to mention the rest, just isolate the space and prevent the enemy from escaping, Rasheng can't take it out. If Scarlett is allowed to strike first, although Rason is confident that he can seize the opportunity to attack Colepho, he is not sure whether he can completely leave the other party. So for Scarlett's antipathy, Rashon has no objection.
"Not bad. Then there's Lauro giving birth to you. Scarlett was stunned for a moment, then a smile appeared on her face and she nodded in satisfaction.
Although Scarlett doesn't want to take on the 'dirty work' of making the first move, if Rason has to argue, Scarlett is actually ready to compromise. After all, Luo Sheng's background is deeper than his own, and he has the support of Buniel, so he really has to take credit, and Scarlett can't help it. At most, he can only be prepared to make up for the knife after Luo Sheng's interception fails.
But what Scarlett didn't expect was that as soon as she started talking, Luo Sheng took the initiative to take over the 'dirty work', without the slightest intention of taking credit. It's not at all like the impression that the young man has the ambition to come to pick the fruit.
"I'll deal with the silver-tier guard first, Miss Scarlett, you stabilize the others first. Luo Sheng responded very dryly
Although Qingteng Manor is a secret base for Tamil to contact the devil, it is not too many guards due to the need for secrecy. Except for Clifford, a gold-level thief who is elusive and no one else can touch his whereabouts, there is only one silver-level warrior on the surface, with a team of guards guarding this manor.
Of course, this does not mean that Qingteng Manor is not strong in defense. In addition to Clifford, a gold-level thief who can deal with almost any unexpected situation, there are three layers of hidden magic enchantments inside and outside Qingteng Manor, and a small teleportation circle directly connected to the Duke's Palace. In the event of an invasion by a strong enemy, not only will the magic enchantment provide strong protection for the manor, but Tamil and other masters of the Duke's Mansion will immediately rush to meet the enemy through the teleportation circle, so the defense ability is not much worse than that of the Duke's Castle.
However, now that Buniel's side has taken action against the Duke's Castle in Tamil, it is impossible for Qingteng Manor to have strong reinforcements, and the three-layer magic enchantment has not been able to play its due role because of the special enchantment-breaking equipment on Scarlett's body, allowing Rassen and Scarlett to sneak directly into the core area of the manor. So at the moment, the only enemy left is a silver-level guard and Clifford.
"Don't worry, I'll leave it to me!" Scarlett replied with the same cheerfulness.
After the two of them finished planning, Luo Sheng sneaked directly behind the leader of the guards, and before the other party had time to react, a sneak attack was followed by a fierce bite, which directly broke through the opponent's fighting defense, tore the opponent's neck, and killed this warrior who was close to the peak of silver, and did not even give the other party a chance to issue a police training.
At the same time as Luo Sheng made a move, Scarlett in the stealth state waved her staff at the same time, and when the stealth state was not broken, a layer of enchantments of 'silent enchantment', 'illusion enchantment', and 'spatial enchantment' appeared out of thin air, covering the entire central area of Qingteng Manor. The people outside the enchantment could only see that everything was normal in the area inside the enchantment, and they didn't notice that the leader of the guards had died in Luo Sheng's hands.
However, Scarlett's enchantment can hide from the ordinary guards outside, but it obviously can't hide from Clifford inside the enchantment. In fact, at the moment when Luo Sheng appeared to make a move, Collie Fu had already sensed Luo Sheng's presence, escaped into the shadows, and hurried over, trying to rescue the head of the guards, but before he could arrive, Luo Sheng had already solved the leader of the guards, and seemed to be ready to rush into the room where the sacrificial circle was located.
Seeing Luo Sheng with the blood of the guard leader on his body, Clifford did not hesitate to crush the special communication crystal, and then released the 'Shadow Step', which crossed a distance of more than ten meters and appeared in the shadow behind Luo Sheng, and the highly poisonous dagger in his hand stabbed Luo Sheng's back like lightning.
Although judging from the breath, Luo Sheng is just a silver-level druid, but the other party's performance of killing the leader of the guards in an instant made the cautious Clifford feel a great threat, so he directly issued the highest level of alarm, and as soon as he made a move, it was a set of killing moves.
However, before Coolford's dagger stabbed Luo Sheng, the cheetah that Luo Sheng had transformed had already soared into the air and instantly appeared more than ten meters in front of him. At the moment of Coolford's move, Luo Sheng had already sensed the existence of the other party one step in advance, and launched the 'Wild Charge' in advance, so that he could not avoid the first set of combos that Clifford, the gold-level thief, was the most threatening.
"Who the hell are you?!"
