At that moment, Roddy felt like he was in a dream. He had actually seen this necklace before. It was on the second day after his rebirth when he checked his equipment. He did not take a closer look at it because it was a simple "White" equipment. He thought it was Roddy's family heirloom and had no other use other than for decoration.
But now, this necklace came with a skill?
It was not Roddy's fault for being careless. In Earthbreaker, there was a 99% chance that any equipment that could release skills would not be of "White" quality. It could even be said that White grade equipment that could release skills was something that Roddy had only heard of in his five years of playing the game. He had never seen it with his own eyes!
What was Stealth? That was the signature skill of the advanced profession "Assassin"! Moreover, the Stealth skill that an Assassin would learn after advancing to Level 10 would only be Level 1. Level 3 Stealth meant that once it was used, enemies within 6 levels would not be able to detect it!
Roddy did not understand why this necklace could have such a high-level Stealth skill. He looked at it again and was surprised to find that it did not have any activation requirements. In other words, no matter who this necklace was given to, the person could directly activate the Level 3 Stealth skill on the necklace by chanting the incantation to release it!
Raising his head, Francis and the others were already approaching him. They were less than 30 meters away from him.
Roddy made a decision almost immediately. Without saying a word, he took off the necklace and threw it behind him. He pretended to cough, covered his mouth with his hand and said in a low voice, "Catch, put it on!"
Sally who was extremely nervous did not even see what Roddy had thrown. She could only watch as the necklace fell on the ground in front of her.
"Crack!"
The sudden sound of a jar breaking shocked Sally. She was so nervous that her legs were a little sore and she almost screamed out loud. Then she realized that one of the knights who was leading a horse had knocked over a water jar on the side of the road.
Roddy almost shouted "God is helping me!" in his mind. He saw Francis and the other soldiers looking back at the broken water jar. He immediately turned around and waved his hand crazily to signal Sally to put on the necklace.
Sally didn't even think about it. She bent down to pick up the necklace and hastily put it around her neck. Before he could figure out why Roddy was doing this, he heard Roddy's voice coming from the front.
"Repeat after me, and don't ask why — 'Ol'kahla'!"
.
When Francis and the others turned their eyes back to the front, everything in front of them … seemed to be the same as before.
Rody tried hard to calm his excitement. He did not look back nor did he speak. He was like a mercenary who instinctively envied the nobles. He stared at the cavalrymen in front of him and moved sideways to make way for them. He looked up at the horses and the equipment of the soldiers with fascination. After that, he walked past the cavalrymen.
Francis was less than three meters away from Roddy. Even Roddy could smell the light perfume that nobles often sprayed on Francis's body. Francis glanced at him and seemed to stop at the horn bow on Roddy's back for half a second. After making sure there was nothing unusual, Francis looked away expressionlessly and continued to walk forward.
This was the first face-to-face "confrontation" between Roddy and Francis. However, it seemed that the earl in front of him would never think that this ordinary-looking mercenary was the culprit who disrupted all his plans. He would also not believe that Sally, whom he had been trying so hard to find, was less than two meters away from him.
The stealth spell took effect.
This skill, which could only be used by an advanced assassin, completely covered Sally's figure. Because of the Level-3 stealth spell, Francis would not be able to detect anything unusual even if he stood in front of her. Sally held her breath and did not even dare to look at Francis. She felt that these ten seconds were extremely long. She could see her body disappearing from her sight. Even the shadow of the setting sun had disappeared without a trace …
Sally, whose fingers were cold, gradually recovered from her nervous state. She saw that Roddy was still walking forward as if nothing had happened, and Sally instinctively followed him. The two were still in the same state when they passed through the village entrance guarded by the guards. The guards only saw Roddy in mercenary attire, but they did not notice Sally who was behind him at all.
After walking out of the Gigg Town in such a thrilling way, when Sally's stealth spell had failed, Roddy had already grabbed her arm and started to run without saying anything. The two directly turned into the remote, winding path outside the town and rushed out …
Until they were completely out of the range of the Gigg Town, the two finally stopped. They gasped for air and sat down on the ground like dehydrated fish.
For a long time, the two didn't say anything. Only the sound of bellows could be heard in the air.
The feeling of survival gradually rose. The two raised their heads at the same time and looked at each other as if their hearts were connected.
Roddy opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he found that Sally had opened her arms and rushed over directly. She hugged Roddy fiercely. Her arms clasped his body tightly, as if this was the only way to ease the fear in her heart.
Roddy was stunned in place like a fool. He felt as if he had been electrocuted all of a sudden. His mouth was open like a toad that had been punched. The faint fragrance from Sally's body wafted straight into his nostrils, making him feel as if his brain had suddenly "crashed".
"It's … It's okay. It's really okay. "
Roddy didn't know how to comfort her. He patted her back stiffly and carefully, and Sally quickly let go of her hand. Seeing his helpless and flustered look, the original panic expression gradually disappeared, and then she grinned and laughed loudly.
"Hahahahaha …"
As if to release the indescribable pressure in her heart just now, she laughed so hard that she swayed back and forth, even without any manners to speak of.
Just when Roddy wondered if he should remind her not to laugh until she was out of breath, Sally finally stopped and reached out to take off the necklace.
"Here, your necklace. Take it."
Handing the necklace that saved her life to Roddy, Sally looked at Roddy and couldn't help but whisper curiously, "It seems to be a magic item. You know I will definitely ask why you have such a thing on you … But I thought about it and felt that if it's not convenient for you to answer, it's better not to say. "
Although she said so, she then glanced at Roddy's neck and whispered, "This magic necklace … It can be sold for a sky-high price in the auction in Hollier City. "
Although she didn't covet it, Sally's tone was a little reproachful, as if she was blaming Roddy for not telling her in advance that he had such a trump card. In fact, at this moment, Roddy was also puzzled about the origin of this item. He was full of doubts and confusion about this necklace that suddenly saved his life, and even had an inexplicable fear.
This fear stemmed from the unknown. This necklace seemed to be out of the scope of Roddy's understanding of the "Earthbreaker", so he couldn't determine its origin at all.
The classification of equipment in "Earthbreaker" was detailed and had its own naming rules. Whether it was a PVE player, a Life Player, or a PVP player, they were all incomparably familiar with these rules. But at this moment, looking at the state of this necklace, Roddy was completely uncertain.
Mysterious Necklace
Necklace Unique
Use: Cast Stealth (Level 3), Duration: 60 seconds.
Activation Incantation: Ol'Kahla
"This necklace of unknown origin seems to have been through many years, but the ability that was once bestowed upon it has not been lost."
Cooldown Time: 30 minutes (28 minutes remaining).
Compared to the previous description, Roddy saw that it had an additional description of cooldown time. This further proved that this necklace was extraordinary. This was because most of the magic items in the game, other than those that could passively increase attributes or auras, 99% of the items that could actively cast skills had a "limited number of uses".
Roddy once had a bracer that could cast a skill similar to Spiderman's "Web Entanglement". It was an excellent piece of equipment for PVP as a control skill. However, after using this skill ten times, the bracer became an ordinary item, and it could no longer cast skills.
Any item that could cast an unlimited number of skills meant that the value of the item itself was higher than all other magic items of the same level, not to mention that this "Mysterious Necklace" came with an extremely practical Stealth skill!
In the face of most monsters or enemies, no one would imagine how useful this necklace would be to Roddy.
What kind of person was "Roddy" before Roddy was reincarnated into his body? Looking back at his memory, he was just an ordinary guy. His parents died and he was all alone. He worked as a scout at the border. Other than that, he didn't seem to have any achievements, let alone ambitions. Under such circumstances, where did this necklace come from?
Roddy looked at the simple necklace in front of his chest and furrowed his brows. Logically speaking, the attribute color of this necklace was blue, which represented "Excellent". If the skill level was higher, it would have been purple, which represented "Epic". But in reality, it was white, which represented "Common".
Could it be that there was something special about this necklace?
He did not know what kind of material the black metal chain was made of, and the appearance of the pendant was also not eye-catching. It was just three black diamond-shaped ornaments, and he could not see any other information. Roddy sighed, as if he was talking to himself, "I also just found out that this thing can let you Stealth."
"Even the activation incantation is clear. Is this your first time using it?"
Sally was a girl who knew how to focus on the main point. She was not an illiterate village girl, but a noble girl who had a unique understanding of magic items. The key word "activation incantation" was the key to why Roddy was able to let her stand there steadily. If he had only put on the necklace and did not know how to activate the Stealth spell, Sally would have been dead by now.
