Land of the Nine Luminaries.
Following the destruction of the Nine Luminaries, this land welcomed its new ruler.
After the various forces of the Rahu Land took over, they redistributed all the spiritual mines and resources. Even the ten resource production points that Gu Yu had negotiated were taken away by the Rahu forces.
Although the gamers were moved and angry, this outcome was within their expectations.
Even when Chen Yao had decided to distribute these resources to them, it was only because he wanted to temporarily stabilize them at the critical moment. He did not really want to give them away.
As the more powerful Rahu forces, they naturally did not give the players any face after taking over the Nine Luminaries. They mercilessly banished them from the Nine Luminaries.
After taking complete control of the Land of the Nine Luminaries, all that was left was the distribution of benefits. The distribution of benefits between the Rahu forces, as well as the coronation of the new king, Rahu.
Because of this, the forces of the Rahu Land became busy. While fighting for the distribution of resources for their race, they also began to prepare for the King-Conferring Ceremony according to the ancient ceremony.
At this moment, in the Barren Grassland adjacent to the Nine Luminaries, a player was rushing toward the Land of the Nine Luminaries.
With the support of Shadow Steps, his figure became a blur, and his speed became faster and faster.
After crossing the border of Beiqi and entering the Nine Luminaries, he slowed down his pace and became vigilant.
Although the Land of Rahu had no intention of attacking Beiqi at this stage, the players believed that the forces of the Land of Rahu would definitely not let go of the opportunity to attack Beiqi. The war would come sooner or later.
Moreover, in the Land of the Nine Luminaries, the Rahu soldiers wouldn't show any mercy to the players. Therefore, the danger level in the Land of the Nine Luminaries was much higher. Naturally, they had to be vigilant.
After advancing a certain distance, the player stopped in his tracks and opened his friend list.
Instantly, his friends' avatars appeared. He chose one of the players' avatars and chose to talk to them.
Shi Ying: I'm already at the Nine Luminaries. Let me confirm with you again. Is the weapon at the Wolf Ridge at the east of the Nine Luminaries?
Ao Jian: "I can't be wrong. This weapon was assigned to the Wolf Ridge in the east. That place is now controlled by the Black Demon Clan, the Luo Hou faction. Be careful!"
Shi Ying: I understand. Watch me!
After that, Shi Ying hung up the communication, opened the map, and began to check the specific location of the Wolf Ridge.
This time, he didn't come to the Land of the Nine Luminaries for sightseeing. Instead, he was entrusted with a mission.
The person who entrusted the mission was Ao Jian, a member of the Wall Cheater Group.
This mission was related to a weapon.
During the war between the Land of the Nine Luminaries and the Rahu Territory, there was a weapon that left a deep impression on the players. It was the icicle in Xing Yao's hand.
Of the Legendary grade weapon, Ao Jian and the Nine Luminaries, was not Nine Nine Luminaries.
What Ao Jian cared about the most was not the icicle, but the materials used to cast it.
Star was Nine Nine Luminaries.
He had learned from Tong Gua that the Ice Spike contained no less than five types of rare spiritual materials. There were even more top-notch Ice Spiritual Ores. It was a rare Legendary Grade weapon.
Ao Jian was Nine Nine Luminaries. Nine of Dragon Nine of Luminaries.
This was because one of the nine spirit swords he carried on his back was of the ice attribute. If he wanted to upgrade his spirit swords, apart from increasing his own strength, the most important thing was to devour spirit materials and spirit ores of the corresponding attribute.
Ao Jian had always wanted to evolve all nine of his Spiritual Swords into legendary quality weapons or even higher. Therefore, the Icicle was very important to Ao Jian.
In his opinion, Ice Luminaries Sword Luminaries could give birth to a Legendary grade Sword if it swallowed the Ice Luminaries.
Ao Jian took action. He went to the Land of the Nine Luminaries to take the weapon from the Luo Hou Force.
Unfortunately, although his strength was close to the Ghost Commander Advanced, he was still powerless against the Ghost Generals and Ghost Kings of the Land of the Luo Hou Force. He tried several times but failed.
Under such circumstances, Ao Jian found Shi Ying and hoped that he could help him.
Shi Ying agreed to Ao Jian's request after some hesitation.
It was a challenge, and he liked challenges!
Moreover, this challenge suited his identity because he was one of the few descendants of the Steal Sect!
The Steal Sect was commonly known as thieves, pickpockets, and robbers in modern society. They were a special group of people who disrupted social order and were shameful.
In reality, the real Steal Sect was not what people thought it was.
Those thieves, pickpockets, and robbers were also shameful in the eyes of the Steal Sect members.
Their style might be similar to the Steal Sect's, but their purpose was completely different, because the members of the Steal Sect never did evil things.
They only stole from the rich and heartless merchants and corrupt officials.
The Steal Sect also had a rule that only one-tenth of the stolen money could be kept, and the rest would be given to those who needed it.
Even so, because of the word "thief" in the Steal Sect, they still bore the infamy of being thieves.
In the eyes of the Steal Sect members, they were wrongly accused.
In their eyes, the word "thief" represented stealing without using violence or killing people. They would leave as soon as they got what they wanted, and they would never use force even if they were discovered!
However, the word "thief" was different. Only those who robbed, plundered, and robbed with violence were called thieves!
They were two completely different concepts!
Moreover, they had never done anything against their conscience.
However, they had gotten used to being cursed many times. After all, they were a force in the dark, and they couldn't explain anything to the world.
As time passed, the meaning of the Steal Sect became more and more vague, and it was equated with derogatory words such as "thief".
There was a reason why the Steal Sect could fly over eaves and vault over walls, and steal what they needed in ways that others thought were unimaginable. It was because the members of the Steal Sect were all cultivators!
Although the Steal Sect gradually disappeared from the world, they were still very famous in the cultivation world of the Degenerate Era.
This was because the number of members of the Steal Sect was much larger than that of other cultivation sects or families.
Although they were not as powerful as other cultivation sects, and they were not good at fighting, the Steal Sect had superb skills in stealing.
Because they knew the character of the members of the Steal Sect, the cultivation world was very respectful to them, and they were completely different from the secular world.
Even though it was 2,319 years ago, the Steal Sect did not live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, and instead, they perfectly integrated into modern life.
Shi Ying, on the other hand, was a programmer who had just graduated and was working in a company. He was not bald yet.
At the same time, Shi Ying, who was in his twenties, was a gaming enthusiast.
Naturally, he did not miss Battle Online. He became one of the players and was addicted to it.
However, there was nothing special about him in the game.
After all, the players' equipment was worn on their bodies, and the items were stored in the channel. If one wanted to steal them, there was no way he could do it even if he had extraordinary skills.
Although he was a very famous assassin player on the official forum of Battle Online with his superb skills, and had published many assassin skills tutorials, he was not as famous as the Beiqi's wall cheaters.
At the end of the day, Shi Ying felt that his Steal Sect's skills were useless in the game, and what he lacked was an inheritance similar to the assassin profession, or a hidden profession.
As long as he could obtain these special inheritances, Shi Ying believed that he would definitely be able to join the Beiqi's wall cheaters and become one of them.
He got to know Ao Jian because of a challenge.
As a belligerent, Ao Jian had been challenging the group of players who were known as professional players in the forum for a period of time.
And Shi Ying was one of them.
Unsurprisingly, Shi Ying was defeated. He was brutally abused by Ao Jian.
At that time, other than Murphy and Little Pomelo who tied with Ao Jian, all the other players were defeated without exception.
However, his assassination skills were also recognized by Ao Jian.
Only when they were chatting did they realize that both of them were cultivators in reality.
Therefore, they added each other as friends. Although they met a few times after that, they did not communicate much.
In order to obtain the Ice Spike, Ao Jian went to the Land of the Nine Luminaries. After a few fruitless attempts, he thought of Shi Ying.
Since Shi Ying was a member of the Steal Sect, he was very knowledgeable about stealing. Ao Jian believed that this person might have a way to help him steal the Ice Spike from the Luo Hou Force.
Shi Ying's ability was ineffective against players, but the Luo Hou Force did not have the binding function of the players' weapons and equipment, which could be retrieved upon death, nor did they have a storage space.
Therefore, from Ao Jian's point of view, Shi Ying's ability was still useful.
Of course, Ao Jian was just holding on to hope and promised Shi Ying a high reward of soul coins.
Whether he succeeded or not depended on whether Shi Ying had the "unpredictable" stealing ability of the Steal Sect as described in the legends.
…
After confirming the direction, Shi Ying began to move toward the Peak Wolf Ridge. His figure turned into a phantom again.
Facing such a difficult task, Shi Ying felt stressed and excited at the same time.
Although Shi Ying, who claimed to be one of the three good young men of the 24th century, had learned the skills of the Steal Sect in reality, he had never enjoyed it to his heart's content. He always returned what he stole on the spot to satisfy his craving. He had never really stolen anything.
He was just grinding his proficiency to prevent himself from becoming rusty.
However, it was different this time. He had to go deep into the enemy's territory and steal the Ice Spike from under the eyes of many Ghost Generals, Ghost Kings, and even Ghost Emperors. The difficulty was unimaginably high.
However, from Shi Ying's point of view, this kind of challenge was more interesting. If there was no challenge, how could he show off the Steal Sect's skills!
Therefore, he accepted this challenge!
Of course, there was another reason.
Back when Shi Ying was known as a professional player on the Battle official forum, he had boasted that he was almost the number one assassin player in the entire server.
Until one day, Murphy and Little Pomelo rose to fame …
After his bragging was slapped in the face, he changed his way of saying that he was the top three assassin in the entire server!
Until recently, a certain brat became the King of Assassins in the entire server.
Left with no choice, Shi Ying changed his way of addressing him again. He called himself the top five assassin players in the server, leaving an empty spot in case of accidents.
This challenge was also to prove to the players on the forum that he was capable of showing off his strength!
On the way to the Peak Wolf Ridge, Shi Ying stopped once again.
This was because he realized that there were too many Rahu soldiers along the way. He had even almost been discovered once.
Recently, the Rahu forces had been exploring the terrain of the Nine Luminaries in an attempt to figure out the location of all the resource points in the big region, as well as whether there were any hidden resources. As a result, the soldiers of the Rahu army had been sent out. It could be said that one could encounter the Rahu soldiers anywhere.
For Shi Ying, it wasn't difficult to conceal himself, but it was very difficult to travel quickly while concealing himself.
At this moment, he suddenly recalled a recent post on the forum.
"Baldy keeps you safe!"
This saying originated from the things that a player named Yuan Fang had done in the Rahu Region, causing Baldy to become the nightmare of many Rahu soldiers.
He had also become the 'safety talisman' of many players.
