Two professional squads appeared outside the government compound. One was made up of six Sorcerers, and the other was made up of six Bandits. The players leading the squads were famous in Xia Fog City, the Sorcerer Strange Pupil and the Bandit Yan Xiaozhu.
When the two sisters learned that they were here for Gu Fei's quest, they immediately expressed their willingness to help Gu Fei even though they were already interested in the quest. Therefore, the young master of the Han Family was happy to relax. He handed over the task of organizing the team to Strange Eye, who had more connections. Of course, Gu Fei was the one who paid for the mission; Gu Fei was also the one who owed him a favor; the young master of the Han Family was nothing more than a middleman with a glib tongue.
As for the imitation part … that was just wishful thinking on Gu Fei's and Sword Ghost's part. In reality, Young Master Han had no intention of imitating them at all. He simply wanted to create some chaos and distract the enemy.
The Sorcerers and Bandits introduced by Strange Pupil were not weaklings either. They were skilled in their techniques. The Sorcerers would cast spells randomly in the fog, moving from one spot to another after casting a spell. The Bandits would look for slow-moving professions, sneaking up and stabbing someone before running away. Their style was very similar to the Mist Assassin.
However, a few minutes later, the two squads realized that there was no one around the outer wall.
"Sis, where are they?" Yan Xiaozhu was curious.
"They seem to have retreated into the compound," Strange Pupil said.
Without the fog in the compound, the harassment tactic could no longer be carried out. The Strange Pupil sisters did not expect to have nothing to do so soon. They did not know if they had accomplished their mission, but they quickly informed Gu Fei of the situation.
"Huh? How could this be … "Gu Fei was shocked. They thought that the constant harassment would force the enemy to strengthen their defense outside the compound, so they would mobilize the defensive forces inside the compound. Who would have thought that the enemy would use this as an excuse to harass the people outside the compound? Fine, I'll just pull the people outside the compound back into the compound so you can't harass them anymore.
Gu Fei and Sword Specter smiled bitterly when they saw that the number of guards in the compound did not decrease, but instead increased.
"Hey, your plan didn't work!" Gu Fei messaged Mr. Han. It did not seem like a strategy that Mr. Han would come up with after an hour of meticulous preparation, but it had failed so quickly.
"What's wrong?" Mr. Han asked.
Gu Fei's words were like this.
"There are no changes in the courtyard?" The Han Family young master asked.
"Yes, there are more people …" Gu Fei said.
"Be patient and watch." The Han family young master said.
"What else is there to see … Eh!!!" While Gu Fei was writing a message to the young master of the Han family, he suddenly noticed that the players in the courtyard under his feet had really started to move.
As if they had heard a summon, the players that were scattered all over the courtyard suddenly began to move toward the front yard. Because Gu Fei and the Sword Ghost were in the backyard, their line of sight was mostly blocked by the government office building, so they didn't know what was happening in the front yard. Was this the effect of his harassment? However, the harassment had clearly forced the enemy back into the courtyard. Why did it suddenly seem like they were redeploying?
"Of course it's the result of the harassment!" Han Family's young master said. "The harassment is to imitate you two experts? I really admire you two for having such a genius idea. Have you figured out what he's doing? "
"…"
"They're on a mission, and the goal of the mission is to maintain the peace in that broken courtyard, not to kill the two of you. If the two of you were just harassing them from the periphery, they would be more than happy. Only a ghost would be distracted by you two. "
"What about now?"
"Now? The harassment is also a kind of simulation, but it's not the two of you, it's the guilds in Xiayu City! "Han Family's young master said.
"Guilds? Guilds again? "
"After the commotion you caused the day before yesterday, they're currently on high alert. This isn't a good time to disrupt their mission, so there's no way any guilds would be willing to make a move at this time. Working together won't work. However, to really attract their attention, they have to think that a guild is going to attack them, "Han Family's young master said.
"So? Have they made it? "Gu Fei looked at the busy players in the courtyard.
"How would I know … You're the ones at the scene, right?"
"Only twelve people are harassing them?" Gu Fei couldn't believe it.
"These aren't ordinary twelve people." Han Family's young master's smile couldn't be seen. "They were recommended by Strange Pupil, one of the Five Roaches, so they're at least well-known experts in Xiayu City. It's hard to ambush them without leaving any traces in the fog. We don't know who these twelve people are, but they should be able to figure it out. In the game, a famous expert, in a certain sense, symbolizes a guild, or in other words, gives people the illusion that they are the symbol of a guild. "
Gu Fei suddenly understood. "You're saying that these twelve experts with some background will make people think that their guilds are making a big move?"
"That's right, that's why I asked Strange Pupil to come …" Han Family's young master said.
As expected! Gu Fei sighed. This was a typical Han Family's young master strategy. The pawns in the game didn't even know the true meaning of their actions. They were just at the mercy of the pawns. Poor Strange Pupil and her friends … Gu Fei could only hope that they wouldn't suffer any losses because of this.
Han Family's young master continued, "They've misunderstood, so they're probably mobilizing a large number of people to defend the front gate. However, this illusion won't last long. Hurry up and do what you need to do!"
"Okay!" Gu Fei and Sword Ghost replied.
"How's the situation on your side?" Gu Fei asked Sword Ghost.
"There's a person near the sleeping assassin. I need to kill him," Sword Ghost said.
"Can't you go into Stealth?"
"You'll be exposed if you kill the assassin while in Stealth," Sword Ghost said.
"Oh, then hurry up. Once you're done, get up the wall and run," Gu Fei said.
"Wait, we don't know if the assassin has anything to do with the woodshed. Why don't I go down first and wait for my news? If there's nothing, I'll run and you can continue. If there's something, you need to get a hold of my information before you act!" Sword Ghost said.
"That makes sense," Gu Fei agreed.
"Wait for me!" The Sword Ghost didn't say anything else. He hurriedly threw down the flying hook's long rope and slid down with a whoosh. When he landed, he turned around and saw that the person was already looking in his direction. The opponent's attention was on the wall, so he noticed him almost as soon as Sword Ghost threw the rope.
Sword Ghost landed on the ground, turned around, and activated Misty Ambush without a word. He had already chosen a spot on the wall, and his landing spot was within the charging range of Misty Ambush.
"That's fast!" The person said in surprise.
Sword Ghost stared at the opponent. A Grandmaster of Combat … Sword Ghost thought to himself. He was really sorry. A Grandmaster of Combat was neither strong nor weak. They belonged to the middle class, so they definitely couldn't defend against Sword Ghost's ultimate skill. Regrettably, he could only kill him in an instant.
However, Sword Ghost had always been serious and never underestimated his opponent. Although Misty Ambush's high speed had caught many people off guard, Sword Ghost would always use the effect of Vanish for two seconds seriously. This time was no exception. After checking the distance between them, Sword Ghost activated the skill's special effect and disappeared in an instant.
Even Gu Fei said that this special effect of Vanish was extremely difficult to deal with. Sword Ghost couldn't help but be confident in this skill. In his eyes, Gu Fei was already the strongest existence.
However …
Just as Sword Ghost's dagger was about to pierce him, the person suddenly moved. His body suddenly sank, and his left hand stretched out from the bottom to the top. Sword Ghost was shocked and couldn't dodge in time. He watched as his opponent's left hand caught his dagger.
Sword Ghost's Vanish was immediately interrupted. He was surprised, but he could see the same surprise on his opponent's face. He seemed to hear his opponent mutter, "Isn't that too fast?"
His dagger was caught by his opponent and the Vanish status was canceled, but the skill wasn't completely interrupted. Sword Ghost was quick to react and didn't hesitate at all. He continued to stab with his dagger. However, his opponent's reaction wasn't slow either. He quickly realized that his attack didn't stop there. He immediately reached out with his right hand and grasped his left hand. Both his arms stretched out, holding Sword Ghost outside his body.
Sword Ghost was very depressed. If it were any other class, they would definitely be heavily injured in this situation. The hand was also a part of the body. Holding a dagger to resist the impact of the skill would cause one's HP to drop rapidly. However, the person in front of him was a Grandmaster of Combat. Grandmasters of Combat's weapons were boxing gloves, so their hands were equivalent to weapons. Holding a dagger was equivalent to blocking Sword Ghost's dagger with a normal player's weapon. Most of the damage was negated.
The damage was negated, but the impact was not reduced. Sword Ghost's Misty Ambush was really powerful, and it actually pushed his opponent a little further forward.
However, the moment the skill ended, Sword Ghost was in a difficult situation. His dagger was still held tightly by his opponent. How could he continue to attack? Release the dagger and start again? He was even more reluctant.
Sword Ghost had no choice but to kick his opponent. This kind of attack didn't deal much damage. Sword Ghost only hoped that his opponent would retreat and release his dagger.
Unexpectedly, his opponent turned 180 degrees and dodged Sword Ghost's kick. At the same time, he took a step back and pressed his back against Sword Ghost's chest. His right hand let go of the dagger and moved it to Sword Ghost's armpit. He arched his back and swung his arm. Sword Ghost felt the world turn upside down. He was thrown to the ground by his opponent.
"Oh no …" His opponent's movements were smooth and skillful. Sword Ghost had a bad feeling. Could this guy be a martial artist like Thousand Miles and Century? He probably wasn't a match for this kind of person …
The Sword Ghost, who was lying on the ground, raised his head and saw the inverted face of the man in front of him.
"This guy looks a little familiar?" Sword Ghost suddenly thought.
