The Boss Behind The Game

In the nine-Yao great domain.

With the destruction of the nine glory forces, this land welcomed its new ruler.

After the Luoyi great domain's forces took over the region, they redistributed all the spirit Mines and Resources. Even the ten resource production points that Gu Yu had negotiated with were taken away by the Luoyi great domain.

Even though the players were touched and angry, the result was within their expectations.

Even when Chen Yao decided to distribute these resources to them, he only wanted to stabilize them at the critical moment. He didn't really want to give them away.

As the more powerful Rahu faction, they would not give the players any face after taking over the nine glory and chased them out of the nine glory without mercy.

After taking complete control of the nine Yao great domain, all that was left was the distribution of benefits between each Rahu force and the coronation of the new king, rashu.

Because of this, all the forces in the luohou region were busy. While they were fighting for resources for their own race, they also began to prepare for the king-conferring ceremony according to the ancient ceremony.

At this moment, a player was hurrying toward the nine Yao great domain in the desolate grassland adjacent to the nine Yao great domain.

With the support of shadow steps, his figure left behind an afterimage as his speed increased.

After crossing the border of Beiqi and entering jiuyao, he slowed down and became vigilant.

At this stage, although the luohou region didn't have any intention of attacking Beiqi, the players believed that the forces of the luohou region wouldn't let go of the opportunity to attack Beiqi. The war would come sooner or later.

Moreover, in the nine Yao great domain, Rahu's soldiers would not show any mercy when they encountered players. Therefore, it was much more dangerous to be in the nine Yao great domain, so they naturally had to be vigilant.

After moving forward for a while, the player stopped and opened his friend list.

Suddenly, the avatars of his good friends appeared. He chose one of the players 'avatars and chose to talk to them.

Shi Ying: "I'm already in the nine glory. I'll confirm with you again. Is the weapon in the wolf Peak Ridge to the East of the nine glory?"

Ao Jian: "there's no mistake. This weapon has been assigned to the wolf Ridge on the eastern peak. It's currently controlled by luohou's Black Devil clan. Be careful!"

Shi Ying: "I understand. It's my turn now!"

After saying that, Shi Ying hung up the communication and opened the map to check the exact location of the wolf Ridge.

He was not here to sightsee, but to complete a mission.

The person who had entrusted the mission was one of the members of the hanging wall Group,'proud sword'.

And this mission was related to a weapon.

In the war between the nine Yao great domain and the Rahu great domain, there was a weapon that left a deep impression on the players, and that was Starshine's icicle.

The players were naturally very envious of this legendary weapon, and this included the proud sword.

What ao Jian cared about the most was not the ice spike, but the materials used to make it.

For this reason, ao Jian specially asked Tong Hang.

He learned from the copper pendant that this ice spike contained no less than five kinds of rare spiritual materials, and there were even more top-grade Ice Spirit ores. It was a rare legendary quality weapon.

After knowing that he had guessed correctly, ao Jian was extremely tempted.

This was because one of the nine spirit swords he carried on his back was an ice-attribute spirit sword. If he wanted to upgrade his spirit sword, 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 spirit swords into legendary quality weapons or even higher. Thus, this ice spike was extremely important to ao Jian.

In his opinion, as long as the ice Spirit sword devoured this ice thorn, it might be able to produce an even stronger legendary-quality spirit sword.

Thus, ao Jian made his move. For this reason, he specially went to the nine Yao great domain and wanted to take this weapon from the hands of luohou's forces.

Unfortunately, although his strength was close to the advanced level of the ghost Governor, he was still powerless against the ghost generals and ghost kings of the luohou region. He had tried several times but failed.

Under such circumstances, ao Jian sought out Shi Ying, hoping that he would help him.

Shi Ying agreed to ao Jian's request after some hesitation.

Because this was a challenge, and he loved challenges!

Moreover, this challenge was in line with his identity, because he was one of the few successors of the Steal sect!

The thief sect was commonly known as thieves, pickpockets, and robbers in modern society. They were a special group of people in society, who destroyed social order and were disgraceful.

But in fact, the real thief sect was not what people thought.

In the eyes of the members of the Steal sect, those thieves, pickpockets, and robbers were also disgraceful.

Their style of doing things might be similar to that of the thief sect, but their purposes were completely different. The members of the thief sect did bad things, but their purposes were good.

Robbing the rich to help the poor was not a joke in the thief sect, and they had indeed done many things for the country and people with their actions.

But even so, they still carried the infamy of being thieves.

The members of the Steal sect thought that he was really wronged.

Because in their eyes,"stealing" meant stealing. They didn't use force, didn't hurt people's lives, and left once they got what they wanted. Even if they were discovered, they didn't have to use force!

However, a "thief" was different. Robbing, plundering, and snatching-only those who used force to Rob were called thieves!

They were two completely different concepts!

However, after being cursed for a long time, they got used to it. After all, they were a force in the dark, and it was impossible for them to explain anything to the world.

As time changed, the meaning of the thief sect became more and more vague, and it was on the same level as a derogatory term such as "thief."

When Shi Ying thought about it, he felt helpless.

Although the thief sect had gradually disappeared from the world, their reputation was still well-known in the cultivation world of this Dharma ending age.

The reason why the Steal sect could fly over roofs and vault over walls, and steal what they needed with methods that others thought were inconceivable was not without reason. It was because the members of the Steal sect were all practitioners!

He was not an ordinary person.

In addition, there was a very detailed division of each member in the Steal sect. Different people who were good at different things were called different names, such as "steal","underling","wall climbing" and so on.

Each form of address represented the cultivation method that they were good at. Although what they learned was complicated, it also divided the characteristics of different members of the Steal sect.

However, in the modern era, these concepts had become vague, and there were basically no specific name restrictions. Moreover, the members of the Steal sect now wouldn't choose one direction to practice, but would learn all the stealing techniques.

Even in the year 2319, the Steal sect didn't live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, living as Immortals. Instead, they had perfectly integrated into modern life.

As for Shi Ying, he was a programmer who had just graduated and joined a company. He was not bald yet.

At the same time, Shi Ying was also a gaming enthusiast.

Naturally, he didn't miss out on punitive expedition online and became one of the players.

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 their spaces. If they wanted to steal it, they would not be able to do so no matter how powerful they were.

Although he was now a very famous assassin player on the official forum of the war, and had taught many assassin skills, he was not as famous as the players of Beiqi who hung up on walls.

At the end of the day, Shi Ying felt that his thieving skills were completely useless in the game. What he lacked was an inheritance similar to the assassin profession, or perhaps a hidden profession.

As long as he could obtain these special inheritances, Shi Ying believed that he would definitely have the strength to join the "Northern divergent's hanging wall Regiment" and become one of its members.

He had met ao Jian because of a challenge.

For a period of time, ao Jian, who loved to fight, went around challenging the players that the players on the forums called expert players.

And Shi Ying was one of them.

Unsurprisingly, Shi Ying lost and was ruthlessly abused by ao Jian.

However, his assassination skills had also received ao Jian's approval.

As they chatted, the two of them realized that they were both cultivators in the real world.

Hence, they added each other as friends. Although they met a few times after that, they did not interact much.

Ao Jian had gone to the nine Yao great domain to get the ice thorn. After several failed attempts, he thought of Shi Ying.

As Shi Ying was a member of the thief sect, he was very knowledgeable about 'stealing'. Ao Jian believed that this person might have a way to help him steal the ice thorns from Luo Yi's forces.

Time Shadow's ability was ineffective against players, but Rahu's faction did not have the binding function of players 'weapons and equipment, which could be recycled upon death. They also did not have a storage space.

Thus, in ao Jian's opinion, Shi Ying's ability was still useful.

Of course, ao Jian only harbored hope and promised Shi Ying a high amount of soul coins as a reward. Whether or not he would succeed would still depend on whether Shi Ying had the "unpredictable" stealing ability that the thief sect had heard of.

……

After confirming his location, Shi Ying began to advance toward the mountain Wolf Ridge, his body once again transforming into an illusion.

For such an arduous task, Shi Ying felt both pressure and excitement.

Shi Ying, who claimed to be one of the three good young men of the 24th century, although he had learned the skills of "stealing" in reality, he had never enjoyed it to his heart's content. He had always stolen and returned it, just to satisfy his craving. He had never really stolen.

In other words, it was to increase his proficiency to prevent unfamiliarity.

However, it was different this time. It was unimaginably difficult to sneak into the enemy's rear and steal the "ice spike" from under the eyes of many ghost generals, ghost kings, and even ghost emperors.

However, in Shi Ying's eyes, only this kind of challenge would be interesting. If there was no challenge, how would it show that the methods of the 'thief sect' were formidable?!

Therefore, he accepted the challenge!

Of course, there was another reason.

Back then, when Shi Ying was considered a top player on the Conqueror's official forum, he had bragged that he was pretty much the number one assassin player in the entire region.

Until one day, inky and youzi rose to power ...

After he was slapped in the face for acting cool, he changed his way of speaking and called himself the top three assassins in the entire region!

Until recently, a certain brat had become the "King of Assassins" recognized by the entire region.

Left with no choice, Shi Ying once again changed the way he addressed him. He now called him the top five assassin players in the entire server.

In order to cover up his act, this challenge was also proof that he wanted to let the players on the forum see his strength and cover up his act!

On the way to the peakwolf Ridge, Shi Ying once again stopped.

He realized that there were too many Rahu soldiers on the road, and he had almost been discovered.

Due to the issue of resource allocation, many luohou forces were exploring the terrain of the nine Yao and the specific location of resources. As a result, the soldiers of the luohou Army were sent out. It could be said that they could encounter luohou soldiers anywhere.

At the thought of this, Shi Ying began to think about how he could travel quickly without being discovered.

At this moment, he suddenly thought of a post that he had recently read on the forum.

"Bald head, please be safe!"

There was a basis for this statement.

The cause was a player called "Yuan Fang," who had done something in the Rahu region, causing the bald man to become a nightmare for many Rahu soldiers.
