Most people wouldn't notice the slight sound of wind blowing behind him. After all, Blackrock Mountain wasn't a quiet place.
However, Lu Li's years of gaming experience allowed him to instantly determine that there was a Thief ambushing him from behind.
Without thinking, he pounced forward and rolled, immediately causing the person who was about to close in on him to lose sight of him. However, the person behind him wasn't a noob either. He followed Lu Li's movements and stabbed his dagger towards Lu Li's back like a viper.
The previous dodge had bought Lu Li enough time to turn around. His dagger …
He had actually missed his block!
Lu Li knew that his reaction speed was too fast, but he wasn't able to completely block the opponent's ambush. Sometimes, it wasn't a good thing to react too fast. After all, reaction speed and judgment had to be combined to be effective.
The ambush's effect was a stun. If Lu Li didn't take any measures, he would be killed.
The person who ambushed him was indeed an expert. While Lu Li was distracted, he had already applied a [Bleed] debuff on Lu Li. Simple stealth skills like Vanish couldn't be used because the continuous bleeding would cause the stealthed Lu Li to fail again.
Gale Step!
Lu Li never hesitated. Once he made a decision, even if it was wrong, he wouldn't hesitate to use it.
Seeing this, the other Thief also re-entered Stealth.
In the first confrontation between the two Thieves, Lu Li suffered quite a bit. Not only did he lose a portion of his health, but he also lost Gale Step. This was also because it was his first time using the game cabin. Even the slightest inconvenience could cause a huge gap between them in a battle between experts.
As for who his opponent was, he was afraid that it would be one of the top few.
Right now, the most important thing was to find the person who ambushed him and defeat him. Lu Li believed that the other party was the same as him. They definitely wouldn't sneak away. This was the pride of an expert, especially in a confrontation between Thieves.
This place was filled with Fire Elementals, and the ground was scorched. Occasionally, there were remnants of flames.
If he wasn't careful, he could get burned and expose his whereabouts. Therefore, Lu Li walked very carefully. He was in a period of adaptation, and the pressure obviously had a catalytic effect.
The opponent's sudden attack might have been because he noticed the ashes rising from the ground.
However, what confused the Thief was that his dagger didn't touch anything as he had expected. He suddenly realized that he might have been tricked.
Lu Li had a wealth of battle experience. That small handful of dust was created by him to lure his opponent to attack. When his opponent made a move, he would use his Staggering Blow to knock him out.
A woman?
After knocking him out, he would naturally be able to see who ambushed him.
Even though she was wearing a veil and her face was covered, one could still see her slender figure.
Water Fairy!
Lu Li didn't know whether to cry or not as he put away his dagger. He had seen her yesterday, so it wasn't hard for him to recognize her today. He originally thought that it was Blood Dagger or Floral Paralysis, as these two were used to killing in the wild and liked to ambush other competitors.
"Why did you stop?" Seeing Lu Li put away his dagger, Water Fairy blinked and asked.
"It's not safe in the wild. I'm worried that someone might be spying on us. Maybe when our health drops, they'll rush out and cause trouble. For example, the one hiding over there …" Lu Li switched to his long-ranged weapon and fired a shot not far away.
A figure stumbled out. It was Mowang Feng.
"Don't misunderstand, don't misunderstand. I just came a little early. I don't know why you guys hate each other, so I didn't come up to greet you." Mowang Feng raised his hands and admitted defeat.
There was nothing he could do. He was a Mage, and if he encountered two Thieves of the same level, he would definitely die in a fight.
Seeing that they were going to run a dungeon together later, Lu Li decided to let this guy go. Otherwise, if it was a different situation, he would at least lose a layer of skin.
"Today, you …" Water Fairy hesitated.
"I changed my equipment, moved, and bought a gaming cabin," Lu Li explained. He understood what she meant.
"Moved? Where did you move to?" When passing through Jiangnan City, Water Fairy went to visit Lu Xin. She knew where the Lu siblings lived and the three beauties living with Lu Li.
"Jiangnan Water Village. I bought a house there. Come and play when you have time," Lu Li said.
"Sure," Water Fairy said happily.
"Hey, are you two done yet? Do you have to feed me dog food like this?" Unforgettable Maple gritted his teeth and said, "Jiangnan's water village, right? I also want to visit. I don't know if it's convenient for God."
"Let's talk about it when you come to Jiangnan City to compete. It's not convenient at other times," Lu Li said calmly.
Not only was he feeding them dog food, but he was also exposing them. In this morning's match, Majin Temple lost to The Capital of Glory and completely lost their chance to enter the top eight. They were the second team to be eliminated.
The first was Lan Yu, who was beaten bald by Ruling Sword. Then, he met a strong opponent and was completely eliminated from this year's competition.
The top eight matches were divided into home and away matches. The so-called competition in Jiangnan meant that Majin Temple had to be Ruling Sword's opponent in the following matches. However, they had already been eliminated, so naturally, they had no chance to compete with Ruling Sword.
Lu Li and the others didn't have to wait too long. The other players from the all-star team soon arrived.
It was still the same people from yesterday. It could be seen from the monsters that they killed on the road that they were much more coordinated than when they arrived yesterday.
Although Lu Li's performance was a little different from yesterday, it was hard to tell if you didn't pay attention. The monsters' IQ was quite low anyway, so they couldn't cause any trouble for him.
However, there were some players who didn't look too good, such as Mowang Feng. Majin Temple had been eliminated by The Capital of Glory and was facing his old rival, Xiao Mo. There was also Hot Twitch. His Brotherhood had lost to Blood Red War Flag and Jade Flower Lover was a thorn in his side.
Fortunately, the Brotherhood wasn't at the bottom of the rankings. Whether or not they could enter the top eight depended on tomorrow's match, but at least they still had a chance.
Stellar Union was also in a bad situation, but they didn't have any players in the all-star team.
Grand Hegemony and Purple Lunar Paradise had a match in the afternoon. Purple Lunar Paradise's Sea Breaker didn't feel much pressure. They were almost 100% sure that they would win against this dark horse.
