Journey to the Half-Elf Plane

Chapter 39 Death of a Thief

Not paying attention to the vicious curses in his ears, Loki held the old goat in his arms with a smile and slowly walked out of the darkness. He stopped after about twenty steps.

There is a clear vision of green in front of me.

The low-light night vision adjusts automatically so that Loki will not miss the opponent's every move. At the same time, the optic nerve image quickly analyzes the situation of the thief Justin.

Strength: 1.12, Agility: 1.81, Constitution: 0.9.

The target's body is seriously injured: two serious injuries - the crossbow arrow penetrated the abdomen, the forearm was seriously injured by an axe, and three minor injuries. It is also in a state of blood loss, which affects mobility. If not treated, it will be life-threatening.

Treatment?Loki wished that the other party would die faster.

How can one have any sympathy for a person who intends to capture him alive and take his life? Moreover, the person is also a first-level thief, and his physical fitness is much higher than that of ordinary people. He may have some hidden methods.

Moreover, even if the opponent was injured, his attributes were much stronger than his. If it weren't for the fact that he underestimated his little finger and half-elf identity, he was first knocked to the ground by a fatal roundhouse kick like a bug, and then was knocked to the ground at close range after being unable to react. A sneak attack with a special dwarf crossbow.After experiencing this, even if the thief's physical agility is much higher than that of ordinary people, it will make him hate it.

Loki has not learned the general skill of the Inner Eye, which can only be learned by professionals.

However, he also had guesses about this arrogant thief. According to Quaid's strength assessment as a fifth-level apprentice, Justin should only be a level 6 thief who has just advanced to the profession, or the thief's physical attributes are not high. , maybe focusing on some skills or knowledge.

"Thief - Mr. Justin, answer my two questions. I might let you go. Do you want to think about it?"

Loki loaded the crossbow string and aimed at the motionless figure lying on the ground with a smile. The other person didn't make a sound, as if he died quietly.

The half-elf boy deliberately murmured to himself: "Is he already dead?"

"I want to go up and take a look to find out who sent this guy."

After he finished speaking, his footsteps sounded in the silent wilderness. The sound of his footsteps became louder and louder, as if someone was approaching.

It turned out that in the darkness, while the half-elf boy was walking on the spot, he took out a few more crossbow arrows in his hand.

A crossbow string made a low "buzzing" sound, followed by the sound of crossbow arrows piercing flesh, and then a feeble cry of pain.

In fact, under low-light vision, Loki had already clearly seen the slight rise and fall of the thief on the ground and his slow breathing. Moreover, even if he didn't notice anything wrong, he would remain cautious and stay away from danger. Of course, he would not be fooled by the other party pretending to be dead.

The crossbow bolt penetrated the thief Justin's back again, but Loki didn't stop. He loaded the crossbow string again, loaded a crossbow bolt and asked quietly: "Mr. Justin, can you answer my question? "

Justin cursed weakly: "You lowly bastard, the son of a half-elf, how dare you kill me? You wait for the revenge of the Thieves Guild."

"If you answer it wrong, you still have another chance. Maybe you can survive and take revenge on me."

After speaking, Loki threw out a tactical fixed knife that he carried with him. This short blade has serrations on one side, which is not only suitable for cutting and fighting, but also suitable for shooting with a flying knife.

The half-elf threw a flying knife and stabbed the thief in the butt accurately.

After the thief Justin was seriously injured by several crossbow arrows, the lung injury was the most serious and fatal.

I saw him murmuring and spitting blood, even if he wanted to say something

Can't tell.

Loki didn't ask anything. He grinned unwillingly, and finally shot a crossbow arrow directly through the neck of the thief Justin.

After waiting for a while, he carefully threw a few rocks at the corpse on the ground. Seeing that the thief was really dead, he stepped forward to check.

The death of the thief was not pretty, he looked like a hedgehog covered in blood.

But Loki didn't have any scruples. The miserable life of a beggar for so many years had given him a toughness and endurance.

In order to save time, Loki first pulled out the crossbow arrows from the corpse, rubbed it on the opponent's clothes and then recycled them. Then he started to move his hands up and down to check what the opponent was carrying and certain specific marks.

This was a blond-haired young human with a handsome appearance that would have made Loki jealous in his previous life.

But being jealous of a dead person didn't seem to be a big deal, so he put his little hands stained with sticky blood into the other person's clothes and small luggage.

A bulging money bag, I casually opened it and took a look, and there were actually a few Oude Empire gold coins. This was also very common in the Fog Castle under the federal city master system.In the bag on the waist of the corpse, some unnamed medicines of various kinds were found.

There are also several fine short-edged daggers that he carries with him, as well as an exquisite small crossbow, which is exactly the one that scratched the half-elf boy's shoulder before.

However, what caught Loki's attention were the two things hidden in Justin's arms. One was the Thieves Guild's exclusive membership badge, and the other was a booklet recording text. It started with some skills and knowledge about basic tracking techniques, and was densely packed at the end. It records Justin’s unique personal thoughts on tracking and identifying traces.

What is Loki's most pressing concern right now?One is to improve one's own strength and increase self-protection ability, and the other is to escape the immediate danger of being pursued.Although the basic tracking technique cannot quickly improve his strength, since it is a knowledge skill in tracking and traces, it can at least reduce the risk of passing traces and exposure.

However, the current situation is still not optimistic. The thief Justin can catch up here so quickly. Loki is sure that his horse is somewhere nearby, and he is not the only one here. That is because Justin is too dismissive. He gave Loki a glimmer of hope.

Looking around quickly, I saw a clear image of green surroundings, with no other human beings visible in the wilderness.

However, Loki must be chasing him not far away. Is it the Black Street Brotherhood, people from Uncle Quaid's side, or is the city hall issuing a wanted order?No, those nobles who have nothing to do with them will not react so quickly. They should be the two parties directly related to Quaid.

At present, the danger of going directly to the Fog Tower Camp has increased sharply. If you continue to run along this road, you may not be able to reach the Cooper River before being surrounded. However, if you change the route and escape towards the west forest, the risk of being overtaken may be If it is bigger, there is only another way.

Loki hurriedly packed his personal equipment bag. He tied the exquisite short crossbow to his arm just now, straddled an Indian tomahawk on his back, and hung a sharp dog-leg knife on his waist. The leather of the scabbard was still quite good. It was sewn by Father Hammer himself.

As for some short-edged daggers and other weapons, he hid them anywhere he could reach.The remaining stolen food, water, and seized items were directly wrapped into a large cloth bag and hung on the ram's butt.

It was midnight, and the clouds and fog in the night sky had not dispersed. Only a few stars shone down, but they could not illuminate the dark wilderness environment.

The figure of the half-elf boy gradually emerged in the darkness. He stopped and tied the old goat to a short tree not far from the slave caravan.

Loki arranged his weapons alone and walked towards the cage of the cat-orc just now.
