Rebirth of the thief who roamed around the world (BOOK 2)

Chapter 359 - Power-Levelling With Death Wave Scrolls

A legend would always be a legend no matter the circumstances. Just like how a piece of gold would always shine, nothing could contain their brilliance!

Take Sun, for example, his reputation among Thieves soared after successfully advancing into a Great Thief. He was hot on Nie Yan's heels. King of the World slaughtering over a thousand players from Bloodlust Blades also garnered a great deal of attention, and his radiance was starting to blossom.

Nie Yan contacted Guo Huai straight away to recruit King of the World and accept all his conditions so long as they weren't too excessive.

With the addition of King of World, Asskickers United would have another Shadow Dancer added to the roster, which comprised Nie Yan, Sun, and One Strike Vow. Add this to the dozen other players who showed potential of becoming Shadow Dancers, and Asskickers United was turning into a holy land for Thieves.

The Thief was a heavily skill reliant class which clumsy players would find difficult to play. Many Thieves held skill in far higher regard than players of other classes, frequently scouring through videos of top-ranking Thieves on the forums. Any half-decent Thief would yearn for the opportunity to receive personal guidance from any one such figure. This was why existences like Nie Yan and Sun would inevitably attract the most talented Thieves to Asskickers United.

Of course this didn't merely apply to Thieves but other classes too. If it wasn't for the war with Bloodlust Blades, Asskickers United would have even more experts in their ranks. However, the recent raise in player benefits did aid in renewing confidence in the guild. Those who previously left couldn't help but feel a tinge of regret. Many didn't have the face to return. Others were begging to be taken back. However, their loyalty couldn't help but be put into doubt.

Guo Huai immediately set to task after receiving Nie Yan's order.

Nie Yan also gave Bird a call and instructed him on the next steps of development for the Starry Night Potion Shop. It had already become a household name, so slowly expanding out absolutely wasn't a problem. Furthermore, thanks to the Grand Scholar title, his properties received the protection of the Viridian Empire. Even if he opened up a branch in the heart of Glory City, there was nothing Bloodlust Blades could do about it.

The surroundings gradually transformed into a muddy marshland as Nie Yan continued galloping on his Faulkner Warhorse. It wasn't long before he encountered monsters, fairies roughly the size of a child with pale green skin. They slowly fluttered around with wings on their backs, wielding three-pronged spears in their hands.

The marshland was filled with this particular type of creature.

They were a hybrid between goblin and fae with violent natures. Their hostility toward humans led to them being classified as monsters. Their attacks were powerful, over several times that of ordinary monsters. They could probably kill Nie Yan in a single hit. However, they only had a little over 5,000 health, which was rare among Level 80 monsters. Their Awareness was also low, so a Thief in stealth could easily escape from them. Lastly, they were slow.

Nie Yan carefully approached one of them from behind and activated Transcendent Insight.

Faelin: Level 80
Health: 5,200/5,200

Nie Yan took out his Cavalry Crossbow and fired out five bolts at the Faelin, which let out a sharp howl and alerted the other Faelins to his presence. He immediately had an angry swarm of Faelins descend on him from all around.

Nie Yan turned tail and fled. He fired his Cavalry Crossbow every time he came across a group of Faelins, who came rushing after him one after another.

The mass of mobs behind Nie Yan quickly grew to an astonishing size.
