"Calculate? Calculate what? "Slender Waist Dancer asked.
"The route Giordano takes in the courtyard and the time it takes to turn off the water vapor absorber to reach the point where the fog rises. Only then will we have enough time to assassinate him. Isn't this calculated?" Gu Fei said.
"Then hurry up and calculate." Slender Waist Dancer urged.
"These aren't my strong points … I'm not a math teacher." Gu Fei muttered as he took out his notebook. He had already recorded Giordano's route of travel and several relatively unnoticed locations. There was no doubt that these locations could be used at the moment. These were all places where Giordano would be placed in an uninhabited environment after the fog rose.
However, the water vapor absorber would automatically activate after three minutes. It would complete its work in one minute and twenty-two seconds. This meant that Gu Fei only had four minutes and twenty-two seconds to kill him. "No, it shouldn't be four minutes and twenty-two seconds!" Gu Fei thought. "Absorbing the water vapor should be a gradual process. One minute and twenty-two seconds should be enough for it to be completely absorbed. During this process, the fog will gradually thin out and the visibility will gradually increase. The enemy might discover me earlier. Even if I set the time to be within four minutes, it's still not very reliable."
Four minutes … If it was just a normal PK, it would be more than enough time. However, his opponent was most likely a boss-level character. Gu Fei had challenged so far in the game, whether it was Suo Tu or the trash boss Adrian who had lost the ability to transform into a werewolf, or even the strongest assassin in the fog, none of them had been defeated in less than four minutes. Tenacious vitality was a common characteristic of all bosses. After all, no matter how high their attack power or how overpowered their skills were, a boss that could be defeated with one poke was not a good boss.
"Defeat a boss in four minutes?" Sword Ghost, who had just returned after hearing about the new discovery, was shocked when he heard this conclusion. "That's impossible. The whole team should be wiped out by a boss in four minutes." Although the Sword Ghost didn't have much experience in sieging a boss in the parallel world, he was at least someone who had done it before. As long as it was an online game, many aspects of the design were the same. A boss that could be killed in four minutes could only be a high-level player bullying a low-level boss. As for a boss of a similar level, it was too worthless if it could be killed so easily. Gu Fei's diary was dropped from a higher-level boss, the Fog Assassin. Even if Giordano wasn't a higher-level boss, it should at least be at the same level, right? Four minutes? That was ridiculous.
"No matter what, let's try it first?" Gu Fei suggested.
"No, this is an impossible quest. No matter how skilled you are, your damage output is just that. If the Boss just stood there and let you attack it, it wouldn't have been defeated in four minutes. If that's really the case, then there might be a trick to assassinate this guy. "As expected of a veteran player, Sword Ghost's analysis was logical.
"Makes sense. Could it be that he has a hidden weakness?" Sword Ghost asked.
"Are there any clues in the diary?" Sword Ghost asked.
"Diary …" Gu Fei quickly flipped through the diary and found all the places that were related to Giordano. When the diary first mentioned Giordano, the Fog Assassin was already on the verge of collapse. He kept recalling the past to keep his mind clear. As for this unfinished quest, perhaps because it could stimulate his fighting spirit, he mentioned it a lot. Gu Fei finally realized that there were many clues hidden in the diary about Giordano.
"Everyone has a unique habit. When they repeat this habit, it's when they let their guard down the most. Giordano, what is your habit? I will definitely find it! " Gu Fei noticed this sentence and immediately shouted at the two, "Look, so it's a reminder to start with Giordano's habit. That's weird, why didn't I notice this sentence in the beginning … "
"Letting your guard down when it's a habit … Could it be that this boss's defense is very weak when he's patrolling and he'll be killed in one hit?" Slender Waist Dance guessed.
"It can't be that simple!" Sword Ghost said. "What else is there?"
With the help of the water vapor absorber, Gu Fei continued to recall while flipping through the diary. In his memory, there was information about Giordano that was useful for fighting, but he didn't know if it was because he was a bit impatient, but he couldn't remember it clearly. He could only keep flipping through the diary, and when he saw Giordano's words, he would stop and read carefully.
Finally, Gu Fei found the information he needed: "It's here!!" He shouted.
"What?" The two quickly asked.
"Giordano? Famous throughout the continent for his sword skills? Do you know what it feels like to lose confidence? Haha, I will help you. I will let your body relive the painful memories, completely crush your confidence, and then ruthlessly erase you! "Gu Fei read out this sentence. It was the sentence that he had been looking for all this time. This was already the last part of the diary. It could be seen that the Fog Assassin had already collapsed to the point of hysteria. The assassin's calmness was not much left, and what emerged was a wave of madness.
"Famous throughout the continent for his sword skills … As expected, it's not easy to deal with. Is this what you're looking for? "Slender Waist Dance said.
"No, it's this sentence! I will let your body relive the painful memories!! " Gu Fei said, "From this sentence, Giordano should have been heavily injured before. Perhaps this is his weakness."
"Heavily injured? What injury? Where is the injury? Is it written? "The Sword Ghost said.
"No … …" Gu Fei shook his head. If it was written, then it would be a very obvious piece of information, and Gu Fei would have paid attention to it.
"Then doesn't that mean we don't know anything?" The Sword Ghost said.
"This … … Maybe when we fight, we can test it out?" Gu Fei said.
The two opened their mouths wide: "That's possible?"
"Of course, the premise is that the game is realistic enough. This setting of being heavily injured before isn't just empty words." Gu Fei said.
"Or maybe your deduction is wrong? This is just the crazy words of the person who wrote the diary. "Slender Waist Dance said.
"But other than this, I can't think of anything else. There's only so much about Giordano in the diary. You've seen it, what else is there? "Gu Fei said.
The two shook their heads.
"So, this is the only way," Gu Fei said.
"When will Giordano show up?" The Sword Ghost asked.
Gu Fei looked at his record: "He left the room at 10: 22, and after 5 minutes and 57 seconds, he will walk out of the government office at 10: 27: 57, and arrive at the first possible assassination spot at 10: 35: 22. It's only 10: 10 now, and there's still 25 minutes until the earliest opportunity to strike. "
"But the players outside are still in a mess. Will it be inconvenient? 25 minutes, and their battle doesn't seem to be over yet. "The Sword Ghost said.
"Players don't have to worry too much about it. When I first arrived, I already noticed that there were very few players fighting on the path Jourdano took. Perhaps the players were worried that PvP here would be detrimental to Jourdano and affect their quest, so they purposely controlled the area," Gu Fei deduced. In reality, Giordano's patrol route was through a few NPC areas in the front yard. Both sides were purposely avoiding the NPC guards, and the relatively sparse areas included Giordano's route.
"Let's not talk about attacking first. Wouldn't it be difficult to rush to the assassination spot in this situation?" The Sword Ghost said.
"The Water Vapor Absorber! If we turn it off, it'll be easy to move around in the fog, right? When it's time to attack, we'll just turn it off again. "Gu Fei said.
"Hmm … Won't the repeated fog attract the NPC's attention?" The Sword Ghost said.
"Aren't you thinking too much … Is it that realistic?" Gu Fei said.
"Hey, you want to rely on realism to find the Boss' old wounds …" The Sword Ghost said.
"If that's the case, then we have to think about it! Let's just pretend that this thing can only be used once. Now we have to think of another way to get close to the assassination spot! "Gu Fei said.
"Hey hey, if you guys think about it this way, then after the fog appears, will Giordano give up his original route and change to this small woodshed?" Slender Waist Dance said.
Gu Fei was at a loss: "Why do I feel like we're analyzing the problem more and more complicated?"
"Slender Waist Dance has a point. If we think about it this way, we have to pay attention to this point." The Sword Ghost said.
"Alright, then you guys come up with a conclusion on what we should do …" Gu Fei felt a headache coming on.
"Everything will continue as before. However, the person who stays behind to turn off the Water Vapor Absorber must immediately leave the woodshed after turning it off. Be careful of being trapped inside and killed by the NPC." The Sword Ghost said, "As for Giordano, I don't think he'll notice immediately after turning off the switch. It takes time for the fog to appear. When he notices, he should be close to the location you need. Then, you two just need to find an opportunity to pull the monster."
"Pull the monster … I say, Sword Ghost, sometimes your words really ruin the atmosphere …" Gu Fei said.
"Sorry, it's a habit. I'll pay attention next time." The Sword Ghost said.
"Why are you staying behind? I can run away faster. Let me turn off the switch! "Slender Waist Dance said.
"No, you should go with Thousand Miles. Time is limited. In order to complete the quest, we need more damage. You're more suitable than me." The Sword Ghost said.
"Watch your words!!"
"Words? Oh, damage. Sorry … I'll pay attention next time. "
"Alright, then it's decided." Gu Fei made the decision.
"Then how do we get close to the assassination site in the middle of a chaotic battle? This problem doesn't seem to have been solved yet?" Slender Waist Dance asked.
"Since there's no other way, we can only kill our way through." Gu Fei cruelly wiped his sword.
Slender Waist Dance was depressed: "Why do I feel like the plan we came up with after thinking for so long doesn't feel exquisite at all?"
"Why not? What an exquisite plan! It's so exquisite that you can't ignore it for even a second. Be more spirited, if you die on the way out, then you'll be a failure!! "Gu Fei said.
"Hmph, I think you'll be the one to die!" Slender Waist Dance cruelly pulled out her dagger.
