Ryan's Sword

Chapter 102
After confirming that the enemy was luring him to go deeper, the black fox retreated to the dark place and gritted his teeth with a headache.

However, he quickly put aside his inner hesitation.

For the black fox, even if it is clearly a trap ahead, he has to jump into it——

If he can't rely on the surrounding dark environment and his advantage of invisibility to severely injure the enemy, should he wait for the Gust two from the rear to come and fight a positional battle together?
"Done!"

When the thief in the dark had completely stabilized his mentality, in Ian's intuitive feedback, the vaguely dangerous aura disappeared in an instant as if it had never appeared before.

"Oh? Hold your breath?"

Of course, Ian, who was walking, would not think that the enemy would just retreat. This sudden change just showed one thing, the opponent is a qualified assassin!
——Hold your breath (D): Increase the physical crit according to the ratio of the breath hold time, and the attack will last for a certain period of time according to the amount of crit increase at the moment of attack.

This is the introductory technique for professional assassins of the thieves branch. Although the rating is not high, it is a watershed for whether an assassin can really take office!Judging from the performance at this time, the black fox has the strength to become an assassin, but that is only possible in the future.

"Where are you going to attack? Still insist on grabbing the back? Or choose to change the attack method?"

Ever since the black fox entered the breath-holding state, Ian, who was still walking forward, couldn't help raising a little vigilance.In one-on-one, if the fighter can get the thief out of stealth, it is definitely the rhythm of a father beating his son.But in fact, experienced thieves can also rely on small details such as card angles and short displacements to kill a fighter who is born with high attack and blood.

Generally speaking, these two professions are pretty much the same, there is no absolute professional restraint, and the winning rate in actual combat is about [-]-[-].

However, Ian couldn't deal with the thief in the traditional way at this moment. He hadn't forgotten that the other party had two companions who might enter the battlefield at any time!If he consumes too much in the confrontation with the thieves, he may have to use unconventional means to take down the enemy!

"Front!! No..."

A sudden burst of murderous intent in front of him made Ian's hair stand on end in an instant!A blood-red knife light pierced out of nothingness, and slashed towards Ian's neck fiercely with the momentum of breaking the boat!
——Sinister Strike (D): Regardless of the positions of both sides, dodge directly behind the enemy to attack, and will cause a lot of physical damage when attacking; if it hits a vital position, it will cause damage amplification effect (additional physical damage by 20%)

Using the enhanced effect of the Hidden Strike, he went straight to the enemy's face. It must be said that the normally taciturn black fox was indeed terrifyingly calm when he entered his battle mode!
However, the killing blow intended to break through Ian's psychological defense, the black fox exposed the combat skills he used to the opponent's eyes.

Almost immediately, Ian saw clearly the blood lingering on the light of the knife stabbing out from a place in front of him. He didn't instinctively raise his long sword to try to block it, but followed the enemy's approach Withdrew step sideways, and while dodging, slashed a sword heavily behind Yuan Yuan!
Driven by the short knife wrapped in blood, the black fox's body seemed weightless, and with the bloody knife light, it made a turning point towards the afterimage behind Ian!However, when he reached the real assassination position by virtue of the displacement effect of his combat skills, a fine steel long sword struck with heavy wind pressure fell on his face!

"Chong!"

The dagger and the long sword that were supposed to be delivered to the enemy's backside collided without fancy, but even after the bonuses of breaking stealth and combat skills, the black fox who was originally on the attacking side was still shocked by the strong force from the dagger. Gotta get out backwards!
"This power..."

Heihu, who had guessed about Ian's true strength for a long time, felt his heart sink, and even the root of his tongue felt a bit bitter.However, just when the repelled thief was about to fight back forcefully, a gleaming long sword crossed the distance between the two of them just now, and stabbed straight at his face!

A chill full of horror rushed straight from the soles of the feet to the top of the head, and the black fox seemed to smell the breath of death in the sword wind that pierced his skin sorely!
—— Even stabbing!

For Ian, since the enemy has already shown up, there is nothing to say.If this thief dared to use enhanced invisibility in front of him, he would have to pay a bloody lesson!
However, to his surprise, the thief who made the decisive move earlier seemed to be stupefied by the long sword that he stabbed after him, and he seemed to stand still on the spot!
"Then there's nothing to say!"

For the thief in front of him, Ian showed no mercy at all.From the moment the opponent made a bold move, it set the tone for this battle. If the opponent really couldn't defend, he didn't mind a sword piercing his head!
"Bah bah bah..."

Although at this moment, the black fox's thinking was stagnant as if he was stuck in a quagmire, but his body finally moved at the critical moment!The short knife in his hand spun at high speed naturally as usual when he was playing with it, and accurately hit the sword edge that Ian stabbed straight at, knocking it to the side!
——Cylindrical Blade (C): Turn the weapon in your hand to make three quick attacks, each attack contains three effective attack judgments; if you successfully pass a strength judgment, the last attack can temporarily float the enemy in the air.

The whirling blade, a skill-type combat technique exclusive to short weapons, burst out nine spinning attacks almost instantly, and the powerful attack with the spinning bonus in the last blow successfully smashed Ian's almost-killing stab, which made it hard to The black fox escaped from the great fear between life and death!
The first time he came back to his senses, the black fox used the skillful thieves' sliding steps to get out again and again, and retreated to the corner of the passage before stopping, gasping for breath!

"Twice."

Ian held up a sword flower with shaking hands, took advantage of the opportunity to move his wrist that was slightly numb in the high-speed collision just now, and mocked in a flat tone.The young thief on the opposite side who was staring at him vigilantly didn't back away because of fear. His corner position can effectively prevent Ian from using a charge to rush in and form a direct killing trend. It is also easier to wait for the support of defensive teammates.

"come!"

If both hands were not empty, Ian would like to imitate Huang Feihong's signature move of "spreading hands and shining palms" to provoke opponents.However, with the meticulous thinking of the black fox, he did not listen to his ridicule, and continued to fight with him in a state of overall disadvantage.

"Black Fox! How's it going?"

The two did not confront each other for a long time, and Gust and Lone Wolf, who heard the sound of weapons colliding in front, hurried over.

In Gust's impression, the battle ahead seemed to erupt for only a short moment, but what caught his eyes was that the black fox, who was already very skilled in the way of attack and killing, was pale and sweaty. The embarrassed appearance under the rain.

Such a discovery made Gust's face darken.

"I failed to sneak attack, boss..."

When he caught sight of his teammates from the corner of the eye, Heihu heaved a sigh of relief.However, while apologizing, he still didn't dare to look away from staring at Ian, just like accidentally encountering a hungry black panther in the jungle, you may be fatally attacked by the other party if you show a little timidity kill!

"Okay, I get it."

In the darkness, there was the sound of "cracking" bones. At this moment, Gust twisted his neck to the left and right sides, passed by the black fox, and appeared in front of Ian.

"Hello, Mr. Ian Grant."

"Yo, the real master has finally appeared?"

Compared with Gust's polite bow and salute, Ian's frivolous and mocking words, it seems that the latter is the villain Boss in the play.

The black-haired young man showed a warm smile on his face, and said, "You are very good. Since half a year ago, the black fox has never failed to assassinate a white-ranked adventurer. Are you the only exception?"

"What do you mean?"

Ian frowned, and then let out a long "Oh—" sound, and his eyes gradually turned cold.

"Let me just say, how did you attract a bunch of flies for no reason?" Ian raised his hands deliberately, showing off the details of his equipment, "So, you are hunters."

"Now that you know, it's easy to handle." Gust looked at Ian with a frenzy that seemed to be burning from greedy firewood, "Leave everything on your body, and I can let you live .”

"Okay, but I have one condition."

Ian nodded and agreed without thinking, which made the black-haired young man stunned for a moment, and then subconsciously asked, "What conditions?"

"Ha ha……"

At this time, the last lone wolf also came to the corner. Ian looked at the trio in front of him, and raised a smile of caring for a fool——

"As long as you call Dad, I can give you whatever you want."

Hearing this, Gust's astonished expression disappeared, and then turned into a gloomy expression.

"You are courting death!"

The cold killing intent emanating from Gust made the thief Heihu on the other side inexplicably jump in his heart. He has just learned Ian's swordsmanship. If his boss is still angered by words before the battle, I am afraid there will be no harm. Good result!

"Lone wolf, go ahead and entangle him."

Gust's still calm tone made the shield warrior, who had been impatient for a long time, grin, and immediately untied the large oval oak shield on his back, and strode over the two to meet Ian on the opposite side.

Afterwards, the black-haired young man drew his sword out of its scabbard and told the thieves beside him: "Black Fox, if you can still fight, go into stealth and be ready to kill him at any time."

Hearing the boss's order is still clear, the black fox's heart, which was originally in mid-air, finally fell back into its stomach.

"Understood, boss."

As the black fox said, he immediately took a step back.Just like before, the gray-clothed thief disappeared in a single step as if he had stepped into the void.

Looking at the posture of teaming up to fight the boss on the opposite side, Ian couldn't help but shrugged helplessly.In his opinion, his taunt was enough to arouse hatred, but he didn't expect that the young soldier with the same black hair on the opposite side didn't take the bait——

During the words, it also revealed the strength to be determined by oneself.

What exactly gave him this confidence! ?
