Chapter 305: Theft and Pursuit (Subscription Request)

Let’s move forward a little in time.

Angel raised his head slightly from the shadows, not even daring to look directly into the distance, but instead used the corner of his eye to peek at the situation in the direction of the living room.

There, the earth-based fighting spirit was like a wall rising from the earth, covering the entire living room, but he could still sense the spreading sacred aura, which seemed to spread endlessly.

He is not only a second-level warrior, but also a magic apprentice. He has a very keen sense of elemental power.

That kind of sacred aura makes it clear at first glance that it is a rare and precious thing.

This time he came to lure the snake out of its hole. As a thief, he naturally wanted to steal the best.

Only if the members of the Iser family are unable to let go, will the sworn knight pursue them relentlessly.

As the thought flashed through his mind, Ang immediately lowered his head again, his breathing becoming more and more steady, almost imperceptible.

He was completely hidden in the shadows, as if he had disappeared.

In fact, he knew the risks of this line of work better than anyone else. Even though he possessed sacred skills, his strength was only at the second level, and he was certainly far inferior to that of a fourth-level natural disaster.

But he still completed the task without hesitation.

In addition to the reasons he said, the more important reason was that he felt that this was something he should do.

Luo Yi never treated him as a subordinate, but as a half-friend. He took care of him in every way and never forgot to do him a favor.

For example, it was only after he practiced the secret fighting skills for a long time that he realized their great value.

Not to mention him, even if you are one of the nobles of the Norman Duchy, can you find a warrior who has successfully cultivated the holy skills?
But he already had it, not only the bottle of secret medicine of 'Holy Lava Heart', but also a complete method of cultivation and careful teaching.

This alone gave him the heroic spirit of "a gentleman will die for his friend".

Of course, although he accepted the mission and had to brave this dangerous place, he was still somewhat confident.

Although he mainly trained with Oliveira and followed the path of a swordsman, he also learned many techniques of assassins and thieves because he was exposed to the underground world.

Hide your presence, walk in the shadows, identify traps, sneak in and pick locks...

He has also learned most of these!
Therefore, he was able to enter the water garden without any hindrance, avoiding all traps and guards, and arrived at a place not too far from the living room.

According to his idea, they should go deeper, preferably to a place like a warehouse, and steal some treasures of the Iser family.

However, feeling the sudden leakage of the sacred aura, he only thought for a moment and stopped on the spot.

He was waiting, although he didn't know whether he would get the chance, but he still showed enough patience.

As it turned out, fate still favored him.

Just when he was getting a little impatient waiting, two servants came out carrying a small purple gilded box.

Although Ange's attainments in magic are not high, his strong point is elemental perception and he also has a good eye.

So, he locked onto the target almost without hesitation, then moved his body little by little, shuttling between the shadow beams, and followed the two servants into the depths of the garden.

Seeing the direction they were heading, Ang knew clearly that it was either the study or the secret library.

These two places are the most valued by the nobles, so it is possible that they have various protective measures.

So, with just a glance, he made up his mind, sped up again, and was already ahead of the two of them.

He clung to the top of the corridor, hidden in the darkness, until two servants passed by, then he suddenly dropped down, put his hands on the back of the servants' necks, and pressed hard.

That was a trick he learned from an old thief. He would find the right position and press hard to make the other person faint.

The two servants just rolled their eyes and were completely dizzy. When the purple wooden box was about to fall, he had already raised his toes and caught it.

It sounds complicated, but all this happened in a very short period of time, without even the slightest sound.

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Ang immediately put down the wooden box and dragged the two servants into the bushes.

In order to ensure that they would be unconscious long enough, he took out a secret medicine and gave each of them a little bit.

After making sure that there would be no mistakes in a short period of time, he picked up the wooden box.

After weighing it in his hand, Ang pulled a smile into his mouth, then quickly restrained it and walked into the shadows before the next wave of guards patrolled.

When he came in, he acted very relaxed, and even more so when he left.

However, heading east, just as he was about to step out of the water garden, he stopped.

After making sure that there was no one here, he took out a dimensional bag, input magic power into it, and took out various items one by one.

For example, there was a special gun from Gary Mills, 'Rage', and the corresponding special bullets, all of which were hung around his waist.

Then, there were all kinds of magic potions, some to restore fighting spirit, some to restore physical strength, some to treat injuries, some to enhance physical strength, one bottle after another, some were poured directly into the body, and some were placed in different parts of the body.

He even took out a drop of 'Isis Wine', threw it into his mouth, and placed it under his tongue, ready to be crushed at any time.

There were also several amplifying magic scrolls, such as the Grace of Cat, Elf of Wind, Speed of Leopard, and Agility of Deer. They were opened one by one and all fell on himself.

That was not the end. He took out a number of magic rings and put them on his fingers. Upon closer inspection, he found that all the other fingers were intact except for his thumb.

After doing all this, he took several deep breaths and then picked up the wooden box.

The box mouth was facing the direction of the living room of the Flowing Water Garden, and it opened and closed quickly. His speed was extremely fast, but the sacred aura that suddenly leaked out was still like a torrent.

Then, without any further delay, he threw the purple wooden box into the dimensional bag, and turned into a black shadow, running away quickly.

At this moment, he didn't even bother to hide anymore and just ran for his life.

It's like a thief who got a great treasure and couldn't help but take a peek, but missed his tracks and then ran away for his life!
Ang felt that he had acted quite well, but when he turned around and fled, he was still a little uneasy.

He was deeply afraid that if he failed to provoke the sworn knight to take action, all his plans would be in vain.

It was not until the violent fluctuations of fighting spirit came and the roar was still ringing in his ears that he was completely relieved.

However, although he was relieved, he ran for his life even faster.

He used the "Wind Chasing Step" to its fullest extent, and with the addition of several amplifying magics, he seemed to be stepping on the strong wind, leaping through the streets.

Even if there was a wall blocking his way, he would just jump over it and run wildly on the roof.

Ang felt that this was his fastest speed. He could only feel the whistling wind in his ears and the oncoming air seemed to have substance, making every step he took extremely difficult.

But he knew clearly how fast he was running at this moment!
However, when he occasionally glanced back, what he saw out of the corner of his eye made his face change.

Under the sky, there was a dark yellow ball of light, surrounded by flames, holding up a human figure, like a meteor that streaked through the void and was chasing after them.

Earth-type Dou Qi has the strongest defense when standing on the ground, because there is an endless supply of replenishment, but this does not mean that he cannot fly.

Judging from this speed, it is obviously an extraordinary flying skill.

If you look from behind, the dark yellow fighting spirit is rolling, one wave higher than the other, pushing Ignatz to quickly close the distance with Angel.

In fact, after his unsuccessful attempt to hunt down Oliveira last time, the first thing he did when he returned was to look for this extraordinary flying combat skill.

Before, he was extremely confident and thought that with his own strength, killing a third-level monster would be a piece of cake.

But later he was chased by two fourth-level people. He never wanted to experience that embarrassment again.

And in his own review, his biggest problem was that the speed was too slow!
If he could be one step faster, he would be able to kill Oliveira in the Flower Territory, so there would be no trouble afterwards? !

At this moment, the results of Ignaz's training were evident. His speed was getting faster and faster, and the distance between him and the thief was getting closer and closer.

This is the city of Bremen, and there are buildings all around, most of which are inhabited by people.

Otherwise, he would have slashed down with his fighting spirit!

However, seeing that he was approaching a hundred meters, he couldn't help but chop down with his sword.

A dark yellow Dou Qi slash was like a crescent moon, slashing out vertically. In the blink of an eye, it crossed a distance of a hundred meters and was about to cut the thief in half.

But at the critical moment, the thief suddenly rolled to the side and stepped into another dark alley, thus narrowly escaping.

However, Ignaz just smiled coldly, changed direction, and quickly chased after him.

As the distance got closer, he kept attacking, either using his fighting spirit to slash, or directly raising a bar of earth from a distance, or raising his hand to throw a stone.

The physique of a fourth-level Scourge Knight is far beyond the imagination of ordinary people. He just breaks off a piece of stone and throws it out, which is like a cannonball and can create deep pits.

Not to mention the earth thorns, which appear without any warning every time and are almost unavoidable.

However, Ignaz was also a little confused.

The reason is simple. The thief is only at the second level, but he has a lot of magic items on him.

Whenever they couldn't escape, either a flame formed a barrier, or a wall of earth grew out of the ground, or a strong wind turned into protection, or a deflection field appeared...

All these things actually helped him escape danger. Although he was in a mess, he never stopped running away.

The question is, he’s just a thief, where did he get so many good things?

This thought flashed through Ignatz's mind, but the next second, he put it behind him.

He's just a thief with some money, he's dead anyway!
It was at this moment that Ignaz no longer wanted to delay, and he suddenly jumped down from the sky like a meteorite falling to the ground.

His knight's sword turned into the sharpest edge and pointed at Ang's back.

The blow was effective, and Angwi was pinned to the ground, but he did not stop running away at all, and he did not even look back.

At this moment, a golden and red fighting spirit slashed out from the side, aiming directly at Ignaz's head.

Ignaz's face was cold and hard, and he wanted to ignore it, but the sense of crisis as a Scourge Knight made him take back the knight's sword at the last moment.

The sword body turned, the fighting spirit burst out, and directly blocked the fighting spirit slash.

But the next second, another figure appeared beside him as if rushing forward.

The thin sword in his hand was like a phantom, wrapped in golden and red fighting spirit and flashing countless sword lights. Not to mention its lethality, its speed alone was almost at the extreme.

Wherever the sword passed, the sound of "swish, swish, swish" was continuous, almost covering Ignatz's entire body.

At this moment, even though he was a fourth-order natural disaster, he was caught off guard and could only block with his knight's greatsword.

Back away, back away, and back away again.
