Rebirth of the thief who roamed around the world (BOOK 3)

Chapter 469 - Cursed Grounds

"Who knows! You know the boss has a habit of showing up in the most random places. He never tells anyone where he's going either. Hermit, let's go back and help him! Wipe out those bastards from Alliance of Mages!" Horny Potter Squatter shouted. With Nie Yan here, what did they have to fear?

After killing the Warrior, Nie Yan pounced toward a nearby Arcane Mage.

The Arcane Mage's heart trembled. He raised his staff and cast Slow, only for Nie Yan to disappear right in front of his eyes.

MISS!

"Fuck, isn't Slow supposed to be an instant cast?" the Arcane Mage cursed. Logically speaking, instant cast spells shouldn't be dodegable. However, Nie Yan had predicted his actions ahead of time. In the previous timeline, this became common practice. Many Level 100+ players could do it. But it was still inconceivable in the present.

The Arcane Mage felt something amiss the moment Nie Yan disappeared. He turned to flee, but it was already too late.

Cut Throat!

Blood spurted into the air as a red ray of light streaked across the Arcane Mage's throat. His body went limp, and he dropped to the ground dead.

These sorts of squishy casters were nothing to Nie Yan!

In the blink of an eye, Nie Yan took down three players in a row, scaring every other enemy witless. He was like a walking death god, draining them of their will to fight.

Nie Yan faced little to no resistance. Even when he was targeted by crowd control magic, he easily dodged.

Alliance of Mage's morale was completely crushed. They lost all will to fight, a stark contrast to a moment ago, when they were pursuing the fleeing players of Asskickers United with glee. Any attempt at a comeback was met with Nie Yan's cold blade.

As Nie Yan chanted out an incantation, the massive body of Lil' Gold emerged before everyone's eyes. He opened his maw and spat out a stream of scorching hot flames, burning one player after another into a crisp.

About five minutes later, all the players on the side of Alliance of Mages were wiped out. Only ten or so players from Asskickers United and eight from Sapphire Shrine remained standing on the battlefield.

"Where are the others?" Horny Potter Squatter asked.

"They're all running back from the grave," Happy Hermit replied. Their side had suffered heavy losses.

The square was littered with the corpses of players from Alliance of Mages and Divine Protectors.

The neutral players watching from the sidelines were all stunned. They believed this battle would go on for at least another two or three hours. No one expected Nie Yan to suddenly appear. The final outcome was a big surprise to all of them.

None of the players from Alliance of Mages and Divine Protectors dared to run back to their corpses. Why would they revive only to die again pointlessly?

The sight of Nie Yan, along with his Golden Dragon, surrounded by piles of corpses was truly stunning.

Nie Yan had once more left a deep impression in everyone's hearts with this frightening display of might.

Horny Potter Squatter, Happy Hermit, and the rest of his group ran up to greet Nie Yan.

"Boss, when did you get here?" Horny Potter Squatter excitedly asked. He had only ever seen Nie Yan in guild gatherings. This was the first time they were talking face to face!

Nie Yan nodded in acknowledgement. He was familiar with their faces and knew they belonged to Asskickers United, but he didn't know their names.

Horny Potter Squatter? Happy Hermit? Nie Yan sank into deep thought. These two names sounded somewhat familiar to him, but he couldn't recall where he had heard of them before.
