The weird game of the ancient gods

Three days later, in the Magic City area——

Xia Yu was sitting at a window seat in the cafe, watching a Hollywood movie about bank robbers on his mobile phone. The protagonist in the movie was extremely resourceful and well-planned. His team was well-trained and each showed their magical powers and moved smoothly. He robbed one bank after another, but was betrayed when he was doing his last job. He almost overturned, but he was the protagonist after all. At the last moment, he suddenly made a clever plan, a huge reversal, and he was surrounded by countless policemen. The hundreds of millions of wealth snatched away.

The movie is well shot. Although it is an old movie from ten years ago, it still gives people a refreshing feeling of being immersed in it.

Xia Yu put down his cell phone with unfinished thoughts and looked at the front of a bank across the street. There were seven characters on the huge plaque - Bank of St. Columbia.

This is a British bank, not too big, but not too small either. It has a lot of business and a lot of cash flow every day.

He has been observing for three days, which is commonly known as stepping on the plate.

Considering that he was an amateur, Xia Yu was very cautious about investigation. He didn't even dare to get close. He just observed from a distance, looking for the possibility of making a move. Not to mention, after observing for so many days, he was really surprised. He found it.

At 2:50, a cash transport truck stopped at the door of the bank on time. Several armed escorts carried the cash box and walked out of the car. They entered the bank's door. Five minutes later, they brought a few more coins with them. The suitcase came out and drove away.

Xia Yu looked at the time. It was five minutes and forty seconds. If he wanted to do it, he had to do it within five minutes.

He outlined the details of the operation in his mind, followed the escort through the bank's security door, entered the bank's interior, and put the money directly into the backpack he had prepared while no one was paying attention - he had already tried it at home. As long as the range of movement is not too large, the effect of stealth will not be broken.

Then he followed the escort out, without anyone noticing. The best thing is that even if someone checked the surveillance video afterwards, there would be absolutely no trace.

The plan was beautiful, but Xia Yu didn't even move until the escort drove away.

He went through the plan in his mind again, and finally sighed, I'm afraid he couldn't do it.

It’s not that it’s not feasible, it’s just that the risk is a bit high.

If he were still the rose thief and dragon-slaying hero who was running rampant in Azeroth, Xia Yu would definitely take action without hesitation, but now he is just an ordinary person who has mastered some superpowers and cannot afford to take such a risk. .

There's no way, the level is too low.

When fighting those thieves and assassins in Azeroth, he deeply understood how exaggerated the effect of level suppression was.

He is also a thief, and he is also capable of sneaking. Those novices have no way to hide in front of him. There are too many things that can expose them: the sound of their heartbeat, breathing, footsteps, and body odor.

But now, his stealth ability is probably not as good as those of the rookies from the Thieves Guild.

What if someone heard the sound?

What if you were locked up in a bank vault?

What if I didn't have time to avoid being hit by someone, and the stealth effect was broken?

Even if you get the money, how to spend it is still a problem. What tracking methods does the bank have?

As long as a person is unsure, he may end up in jail, and with his heavy-bearing capacity, he can only take tens or millions at most at a time. Taking such a big risk for such a small amount of money is really not worth it.

Xia Yu drank the coffee in one gulp and finally gave up the plan temporarily.

Unless you can skillfully use the ability to disappear and sneak silently, don't even think about it.

When he walked out of the coffee shop, Xia Yu was a little distracted. Where could he get money? Although he could become invisible, it was of no use if he couldn't find the right place.

These days, all payments are made by mobile phone. Apart from banks, I really can’t think of anywhere else where I can find a large amount of cash to ‘borrow’.

Are you going to Macau City Casino? But I'm not familiar with it at all.

At this time, a phone rang suddenly, startling Xia Yu who was thinking. He picked up the phone and took a look. It was Fujiwara Fubuki.

I can't help but wonder, why is this girl calling me?

During the last game, the four of them got to know each other quite well because they were on the same team. The four members of the Travelers team exchanged phone numbers with each other, but after all, they were just teammates for one game, and it was still unclear who would be with whom in the next game. Well, Xia Yu never thought that someone would actually call him.

After thinking for a while, he answered the phone, "Hey, Fubuki, do you have anything to do with me?"

"Traveler, what skills did you draw last time? Did you draw a lock-picking skill or a stealth skill?"

Xia Yu suddenly became happy, "Why are you asking this, and why should I tell you."

"Aren't we friends? I have something that needs professionals to do, so I'm asking you. Don't worry, it's not a dangerous thing, and the pay is absolutely generous. Is it convenient for you? I'll wait for you at Meow Meow Cafe. Come here first. talk later."

Xia Yu wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, it seemed that there was no need to refuse so simply. There was no harm in hearing what the matter was.

Half an hour later, Xia Yu arrived at Miaomiao Cafe.

It was his first time to come to this kind of place, and he felt very curious when he saw it. There was a huge lucky cat at the door. When he walked in, he found that the floor was full of cats. A waiter wearing a cat face mask greeted him. After being led to a seat inside, Fujiwara Fubuki was wearing a doll suit and holding a British shorthair in her arms. Opposite her, there was a fat orange squatting, sitting opposite her like a friend.

There is black tea and snacks on the table, as if you are having a tea party with the cat.

Xia Yuxin said that you guys are really good at playing in the second dimension. He picked up Fat Orange and sat down. He ignored Fat Orange's struggle and petted the cat and asked, "Tell me, what is it?"

Fujiwara Fubuki glanced around, leaned down and lowered his voice, saying mysteriously: "I got the resurrection skill this time."

Xia Yu was startled and a little surprised. He didn't expect that there was such a thing as resurrection skills.

He had always thought that it was unlikely that anyone could draw it. After all, this thing destroyed the balance of the game. As long as one person had the resurrection skill, the players could work together to increase points.

"Then why didn't you say it?" he asked strangely. If Fujiwara Fubuki said it, it would definitely become everyone's favorite, and everyone would probably want to please her. Fujiwara Fubuki could rely on his ability to revive. , let others help her win the game, and ask Fujiwara Fubuki to help pull someone out if he dies. Wouldn't that perfectly avoid the risks of the game?

Fujiwara Fubuki shook his head, "Don't get me wrong, it's not the resurrection technique that resurrects others, it's the 'rebirth' skill that the shaman uses to resurrect himself, and there is a price for using this skill."

Only then did Xia Yu suddenly realize that this was the right thing to do. He knew that it was impossible to arrange such a buggy skill, but even just resurrecting himself would be overbearing enough.

"So, what's the price?"

Unexpectedly, Fujiwara Fubuki made no secret, "You need to have the Ankh of Rebirth to use the rebirth skill. If you don't have the Ankh of Rebirth, is there another way? That is to perform a ritual to gain the approval of the ancestors' spirits. With the help of the ancestors' Asylum is reborn.”

Xia Yu was stunned for a moment. He actually didn't expect the other party to answer his question. After all, this was a powerful trump card. He didn't expect this girl to say it like this. He didn't know whether it was too naive or too heartless, but the ancestors spirit? Where can I find this thing?

"Then what do you mean by looking for me? I don't know how to dance."

"The matter of dancing the great god - I mean the ritual matters can be handled by myself, but to carry out this ritual, an ancestor altar is required. In reality, it should be almost equivalent to a clan ancestral hall.

So I had to find a way to enter the ancestral hall in my hometown. "

Xia Yu's family is a small family, and they don't pay much attention to it. They have no idea about clans or anything like that. He asked strangely: "Then let's go?"

Fujiwara Fubuki shook his head, "It's not that simple. Only men can enter my ancestral hall, and it will only be opened when worshiping ancestors. It is tightly closed on weekdays and has special personnel to guard it. If I want to perform rituals, there is no way It's impossible. If my father knew what kind of rituals I went to the ancestral hall, he would beat me to death.

That's why I asked you if you have stealth or lock-picking skills. If so, I would like to ask you to help me sneak in. "

Xia Yu really didn't expect such a thing. He hesitated and said, "What if I get caught."

"I was the one who caught the unlucky one. There is no danger to you as an outsider. The most they can do is beat you up and drive you away. And even if they fail, I can pay you half of the reward. How about, let's make a price. ." In the end, in order to emphasize the tone, Fujiwara Fubuki slammed the table, but after the slap, she stuck out her tongue in pain.

Xia Yuxin said he was so generous? But it’s understandable. Fujiwara Fubuki seems to be a man who is not short of money.

He hesitated for a while. Logically speaking, he didn't want to get involved in such a mess, but thinking about it, it seemed that there was no danger. It was lower risk than stealing money from the bank. It was just a favor to do a friend.

Besides, if you happen to open your own store, you will also need start-up capital.

"One hundred thousand!"

"Can."

Xia Yu suddenly regretted it - was he going to lose it?
