Night Ranger

The thief was stunned. He didn't expect that this down-and-out nobleman could still keep calm in such a situation and made the most correct judgment.

The beach of the Pine River is extremely wide. If it were on the beach, Marvin would definitely not be able to escape the pursuit of the Akron gangsters.

There is only a glimmer of possibility in the sparse grove on the side.

"You're blind?" the thief murmured in his heart, not in a hurry, he greeted the gang members who were following, and followed quickly.

His agility is very high, it is unbelievable that a nobleman who doesn't even have a combat profession can't deal with him.

What's more, this forest is actually not that complicated terrain, he can't run.

Marvin rushed into the woods first, and under the cover of the dark night, he quickly approached a big tree with lush branches.

"You don't even need to sneak, you look very confident."

Leaning his back against the pine tree, Marvin sneered as he watched the thief chasing him carelessly with a dagger in his hand.

I still have an advantage.

After seeing the gang of Akron gangsters, Marvin was surprised and puzzled, but he never lost his composure. Just a joke, as a former master of the night, his combat experience can be described as extremely rich. These punks are barely professionals. Although their strength is higher than him and there are more people than him, sometimes combat experience is very important!

Especially in complex terrain!

When Marvin successfully became a ranger before, he was very careful when wearing the ranger badge and wore it in a very concealed position, so those gang members should not have realized that Marvin has become a professional just like them!

That's a huge advantage.

"Want to kill me? Then don't blame me."

He silently pulled out the scimitar from his waist, showing a trace of cruelty. Since these scumbags want to eat themselves, they must be prepared to be killed.

Yes, since the appearance of the Akron gangsters, he has never thought of running away. He wants to find out the truth.

He is going to keep all these people here!

Thinking of this, his blood began to boil faintly. This feeling has not been seen for a long time - the last time he was so excited was probably when he was facing the pursuit of more than a dozen demigods alone when he completed the task of conferring the gods time?

...

This forest is actually very small, and there is not much room for Marvin to maneuver.

The thief must be killed first before the rest of the people approach. Marvin believed that the rest of the gang should have no thieves, and this guy who didn't use stealth was their only thieves. He is also the most threatening of them all. The Rogue has high perception and agility, and it's easy to find his hiding place.

As long as he was killed, Marvin had plenty of ways to deal with the rest of them slowly.

Thinking of this, he curled up slightly, getting closer to the pine tree.

[Skill hide activates! 】

The ranger's signature skills are naturally extraordinary, and with the help of the night, Marvin's body faintly blends with the pine tree. The thief didn't realize it, and walked over here in big strides. Marvin clenched the machete tightly and held his breath.

The 41-point hiding skill, plus the +9 provided by the sika deer badge, is just enough to trigger the hidden effect [Night Blessing] attached to the 50-point hiding skill.

[Night Blessing]: When you use the hiding skill, if it is at night, the effect will increase by 5%.

Don't underestimate the 5%. In many cases, even an increase of 1% is enough to change the situation of the battle.

As a PK master in his previous life, Marvin was not only extremely proficient in the thief profession, but also knew other professions like the back of his hand. That's why he got his hiding skill to 50 points in the first place.

It's just that he didn't expect it to come in handy so soon.

The thief's perception seemed to be lower than Marvin expected. It may be because of years of edification and training in the market that he became a thief, not because of his talent.

He walked past Marvin carelessly, at this moment, a shout suddenly came from the entrance of the forest:

"Jack, where's the lady? Where's the nobleman?"

Jack turned around impatiently, and shouted towards the entrance: "I'm here! That little nobleman is nearby, there's no escape!"

Marvin silently waited for him to finish his sentence, and then he made clean steps and came behind the thief like a ghost.

The left hand slammed down the thief's mouth, and the inner blade of the scimitar in the right hand easily slashed across the thief's throat!

In an instant, the blood flowed wildly, and the thief's body began to struggle violently!

But Marvin covered his mouth expressionlessly, and the other party's random struggle before dying could not hurt him at all.

[Normal attack succeeded! 】

[Hits to the point of death! Normal attacks turn into lethal attacks! 】

[Target dies! Get 18 points of killing experience! 】

Without looking at the battle records that flashed by, Marvin could sense from the opponent's gradually limp body that this guy was dead.

"It's too slow." Marvin shook his head dissatisfied.

Limited by his body and occupation, the strength he can exert is not very strong. This set of moves just now is the Phantom Assassin's iconic combo [Shadow Cut Step] + [Throat Cut], this combo will produce a very high damage bonus to the skill, and it is perfect for instant killing opponents.

Although Marvin is not a thief now, he can still complete these two technical actions by relying on his memory and physical instinct. Although he himself is not satisfied with the completion of the movements, and these two movements themselves do not have super high attack bonuses like skills, but correspondingly, his opponent is not a very powerful character.

A level 2 thief with 42 health points, if he doesn't get hit to the point of death, it will still be very difficult for Marvin to deal with it. But the first-tier occupations have no resistance to fatal injuries, and once they are hit to the fatal points, they will undoubtedly die.

This careless thief is obviously a negative textbook for low-level professionals. He probably thought that Marvin had no power to resist, but he didn't expect that the target they were chasing and killing would suddenly transform into an assassination expert.

Marvin quickly searched the thief, and found a money bag and some materials for making traps.

"Poor ghost..." There were only 5 silver coins in the purse, which was very shriveled.

Those materials are useful. Before the rest of the people came, Ma Wen pulled the thief's body to a hiding place aside, found another big tree, and started hiding.

He looked up, and there was a cloud over the moon, making his vision poor.

Tonight is destined to be a killing night.

...

There were four other thieves' companions, and they rushed into the woods holding torches. Under the light of the fire, the originally sparse woods suddenly became brighter.

With the torch lighting, Marvin's hiding skills will undoubtedly be greatly reduced. To make matters worse, they would find the thief's body very quickly, because of the tight time, he didn't have time to dispose of the body, and he only had a little cover.

That's when they'll heighten their vigilance, knowing their prey isn't defenseless. In this way, the possibility of Marvin continuing to succeed is greatly reduced.

"Damn it, damn Jack, he didn't stop that little nobleman from running into the woods." One of them cursed harshly, "If you don't respond to us now, what is this kid trying to do?"

"Maybe the little nobleman ran faster, and he chased after him first."

"But he didn't leave us too many traces, so it's too time-consuming to find it. We must ensure that the boss's orders are carried out. Tonight, that little nobleman named Marvin must die!"

The fire came shining, and Marvin turned sideways, listening to the enemy's footsteps calmly. Without professional listening skills, his perception became a little passive, but these people were as careless as those thieves, and they didn't deliberately control the sound of their footsteps when they walked, so he could still judge their direction by the sound of their footsteps.

There are four people in total, two tall, one fat, and one sissy.

Even without looking, he can make such a judgment.

The four came near him, and a dispute arose between them. To Ma Wen's delight, the four guys quarreled for a while and finally made a decision that made Ma Wen happy: search separately!

It seems that they are very confident in their own strength, and feel that it is easy to deal with a small noble who does not have a fighting profession.

The four dispersed, the other three left in three different directions, and the fourth searched nearby.

Marvin cleverly used the shadow to avoid the search range of the other three people - he had too many such experiences, facing the pursuit of a whole well-trained team alone in complex cave groups or in the jungle . These little gangsters have not experienced professional training, otherwise they would not have left so many search blind spots for Marvin to hide in.

The fourth person was circling on the spot, and Marvin waited for an opportunity in less than half a minute.

It's exactly the same as the movement of the thief just now, with a neat step-cutting and throat-cutting technique.

[Normal attack succeeded! 】

[Hits to the point of death! Normal attacks turn into lethal attacks! 】

[Target dies! Get 11 points of killing experience! 】

It's a first-tier poacher - one of the most common careers in urban gangsters. **Professionals have expertise and trait bonuses in street fighting, but in the wild, they don't have any advantages.

The threat he brought to Marvin was far less than that of the thief. The only thing that satisfied Marvin was that this guy was slightly richer than that Mr. Thief, and he carried 12 silver coins with him.

A faint smell of blood permeated the woods, and Marvin got angry and killed two people in the same way.

The two gave Marvin 26 silver coins and a total of 30 killing experience points. Unfortunately, when the last person was killed, because the opponent was a bit tall, Marvin's hand could not cover him tightly. Although the throat cutting technique worked as usual, the unlucky guy still let out a cry. scream.

This suddenly woke up the last Akron gang member, and he rushed over within a few seconds holding a torch.

Marvin didn't have time to escape.

"We underestimated you." The tall man looked at the corpse under Marvin's feet, a little surprised.

Holding a torch in one hand, he held a machete tightly in the other, showing a ferocious expression: "But tonight, you are dead."

Marvin calmly dropped a scout.

[Reconnaissance (35) skill is being activated...]

[Passing the relevant test...]

[Reconnaissance failed! You can't get more info! 】

Scouting failed!

This means that the opponent has at least three adventure career levels!

The tall man licked his lips, and rushed over with strides, the machete in his hand was raised high, as if he wanted to chop Marvin into meat sauce!
