Chapter 7 Revenge

  Stealing from the wealthy church is a suicidal act for an outsider.

  Experts come to do it, that is to steal heaven and change day.

  In his past life, Raven was a vagabond before he became an assassin. Stealing things and whatnot were also old habits of his.

  The attributes of an ordinary adult male are all 10. Ravens 17 agility points dont allow him to easily fly over rooftops, but jumping over a two-meter high wall is still very easy for him.

  Raven leisurely dripped the corrosive acid from his body onto the sharp spikes on the surrounding wall.

  The acid of 【Erosion Fang】 is very difficult to corrode glass products, and it is easy for the lime on the wall. Very easily, as a base of glass fragments was softened by acid.

  Leiwen swiftly pulled out his target, a black crystal shard consisting of two rhombus shapes connected together, one large and one small.

  Its just a string of attribute data when you enter your eyes:

  Item Name: Obsidian Needle [+1]

  Type: Dagger

  Weight: 1.7 kg

  Item Grade: 【Black Iron Rank Rare Equipment】

  Damage: 8-10 points

  Item Description: This is a weapon with a magical history, its past owner was an elven slave who miraculously killed his way out of hell and back to the mainland of Azeroth with this obsidian dagger. The blade has been stained with the blood of demons, and the mournful whispers of the dead make ones hair stand on end. This is a crude dagger forged from limited materials, without any forging, only the most primitive hammering. Nevertheless, the dagger still retains the strongest sharpness characteristic of obsidian.

  Equipment requirements: Strength 10 or above.

  Equipment Effect: Hard attribute, Sharp attribute, +1 Sharpness, +2 Penetration, +1 Hardness, +3 Armor Break.

  Weapon Special Effect: 【禁语】, after piercing the body of a weak enemy with a maximum HP lower than 50 points, there is an 80% chance to produce a continuous 5-second silence effect within a 1-meter range around the enemys body. This special effect that does not generate arcane fluctuations will be treated as a natural effect.

  Weapon Property: 【Sharp】, this weapon has a certain chance to permanently damage any Black Iron armor during combat.

  This Obsidian Dagger is the divine weapon of novice thieves. Although its just a dagger, it has an attack power comparable to that of a Whiteboard Axe, and its continuous special effects are something that many Bronze-grade weapons dont have. The most outrageous thing is that Forbidden Word, which is absolutely a must-have for home travel murder arson!

  "You shout! Youll never be heard even if you shout your head off." This classic dialogue is most appropriate here.

  The only drawback of Kuroyuki is that its too heavy for a dagger.

  In fact, if Raven didnt go get the Black Onyx Dagger, according to the games history, this newbie zone godly weapon would also be discovered a month later. Remember that the first person to obtain this dagger was precisely Hei Sun.

  Raven shuddered at the memory: Damn it! The guy who was robbed of his dagger by Black Scorch, I wont be able to avenge him until I reach level 20 Bronze Rank? By the time I get to Bronze Rank, Black Scorch might have been wiped out, not even leaving a single blade of grass behind.

  Back by Karins side, Karin flashed a surprised smile.

  "Is everything settled?"

  "Lets just say it was half successful. Alright, lets leave it at that for tonight, we should get some sleep."

  Still chilly in March, the two of them leaned against each other and fell asleep.

  In her sleep, Carine inadvertently touched Ravens new dagger, her body trembled slightly, but ultimately said nothing and fell back asleep.

  The next morning, Raven transformed into a middle-aged drifter and went to the Adventurers Guild in the east of the city.

  The expected bounty was indeed released.

  "Apprehend the thief! Last night, a thief stole a decorative obsidian under the patronage of the Goddess of Fortune at the Albert Knight Manors outer wall using acid. A reward is now offered: 50 silver coins for the thiefs fingers and 2 gold coins for the recovery of the stolen goods."

  Only the wealthy churchs big shots would offer such an exaggerated bounty, at least a 50% premium over the normal bounty.

  Lei Wen smiled, this was exactly what he had been waiting for.

  An excellent assassin is never short of patience.

  For a whole morning, Raven lurked near the dark cultist who had rewarded him with a shot of Corrosions Tooth, quietly listening to all the messages about the target.

  His name is Punk, his identity is a crazy believer, and he works for the Barbarians.

  When Raven saw Pongs physique, he began to sigh.

  As a god-level assassin, what I hate most is assassinating barbarians.

  First, theyre poor. These muscle-brained guys will squander every penny they earn on booze and womens bellies. Killing these deadbeats wont yield anything of value either.

  Secondly, there is no challenge. Among the eight basic professions in Azeroth, the most careless and defenseless one is the Barbarian, who is full of flaws. If it werent for hatred, Raven would rather kill a Paladin than kill a hundred Barbarians.

  Three are barbarians with strong vitality and long blood bars. Other professions can be killed with one knife, but the barbarian may need to stab several knives in the heart before hanging up, which completely does not conform to Leis aesthetics of one hit kill.

  Unfortunately, Raven follows a life philosophy of revenge for grievances, and although he is unwilling, he still diligently figures out what he needs to know.

  Every time he eats, that guy gets drunk with people from the same church and then looks for women everywhere day and night, maybe looking for prostitutes or like last night, looking for poor girls in the slum to abuse.

  Head-on challenge, Raven has no chance of winning. Even the worst Blackened Cultist in the games challenge level will not be lower than 7th grade. In other words, ordinary professionals can only challenge this guy at level 7 and may not win.

  If the other party is drunk, then its hard to say, maybe the challenge level will drop to around 4 levels.

  For Raven this level 1 novice assassin, level 4 is also a huge challenge.

  This means that if one move doesnt hit, it will definitely be counter-killed.

  In the face of this situation, the timid will give up! The conservatives will choose to team up.

  But who is Raven?

  Formerly Divine Fang, 118-level Assassin!

  A grudge cannot be left unavenged!

  The pride of a god-level assassin would never allow him to retreat.

  Punk is dead!

  Raven continued to wait, from Punk stumbling out of the tavern, until he parted ways with his friends, Raven always keeping a safe distance behind. Ravens stomach was very hungry, in order to avoid startling the target with the growling sounds coming from his belly, Raven even forced himself to eat a lot of moss.

  Dont look at Pong now, hes unstable when walking, if Raven rushes up suddenly, even if he doesnt use 【腐蚀之牙】, he can still make Raven lie down again in a minute. This time, its likely that he wont even have time to drink the foot-washing water before being torn apart directly.

  Lewin was very patient, quietly shuttling between the rooftops of the slums, following Punk at a distance that was neither too far nor too close.

  2 oclock in the afternoon was the hottest time of the day, and the gentle warmth brought by the early spring sunshine made Pongs whole body feel soft and limp. Perhaps he would be more vigilant at night, but at this moment, it was noon, and he couldnt help but relax his guard.

  Maybe he had too much to drink, Punk stumbled into a dimly lit alley, took off his pants and pulled out his thing to take a leak...

  Four down, no one, Lei Wen made a final observation of the ground behind Pong Kuei before making his move.

  Unlike the main thoroughfares, most streets use bluestone as pavement; in poor districts, there is only mud a foot deep.

  Fortunately, it didnt rain today; otherwise, just the sound of stepping into puddles might have startled Punk.

  Drawing on his rich experience, Raven swiftly found a route that was the most solid and least likely to make any noise, and landed silently on the ground like a ghostly cat.

  "Personal Specialty 【Hidden】 activated, all stealth and concealment checks +2"

  "Professional skills activation!"

  "Hiding successful, opponents perception has been deceived."

  A persons field of vision is only about 120 degrees wide. As long as it evades the auditory and other sensory organs, Raven is unlikely to be detected.

  Like a ghost, Raven silently crept up behind Punk and prepared to make his move.

  According to the rules of assassins, the most ideal way is to cut ones throat.

  Theres a problem here, Punk is much taller than Raven, a whole head higher. If he still insists on following the Assassins Code, hell probably accidentally poke Punks shoulder halfway through.

  Being killed by Raven will be Ravens only outcome.

  Lei Wen changed to a more daring approach, he raised a short stick high, slowly swung a standard circle in the air, and silently smashed it towards Pong Kes back of the head.

  Knock it off!

  "Fatal Strike Initiated: The assassin observed the opponent for three breaths before launching a melee sneak attack, dealing damage and inflicting paralysis."

  "The targets physical and mental strength is insufficient."

  "This sneak attack deals 3 points of damage to the target."

  A sudden intense pain mixed with an indescribable dizziness, Punks body suddenly went limp.

  With a clean and swift cut, Raven flashed to Pongs right side, like a flying snake, stabbing out the black onyx dagger in his hand.

  A perfect hit!

  Avoiding the ribs under the right armpit, it pierced through the thick skin that was once impenetrable, easily entering between two ribs, passing through the entire right lung, and finally opening a large hole in the heart chamber.

  In an instant, fresh blood gushed out of the broken hole in the ventricle and rapidly poured into the right lung.

  The forbidden effect of Kokuyou no Yaiba was triggered, as if erasing all the air around.

  Pang Kes mouth was wide open for a full five seconds, and he couldnt say a word.

  The silence effect has worn off, and Raven takes advantage of the paralysis effect from the fatal attack to stretch his neck and whisper softly into his ear: "Thanks for the Corrosion Fang you gave me last night, and for that slash on my sisters face. Since you left me to die after giving me a mortal wound last night, Ill return it to you in kind."

  What?! Its actually that little brat! Impossible! Pongques eyes widened with bloodshot eyeballs, his heart filled with shock and regret!

  The severe pain in his heart kept reminding him of the passage of life. He certainly knew that he was in a precarious situation, and after recovering his mobility, he vented all his anger on the attack at the first opportunity.

  Draw out the axe from your waist and swing it horizontally in a circular motion, sweeping across your entire back.

  Unfortunately, his movements were too easy to see through in front of a former god-level assassin. Raven, who had been prepared, stood with his hands behind his back and crouched down behind him. His spinning slash naturally cut empty air.

  Levin was like a skilled hunter, having dealt a mortal blow to his prey, quietly waiting for its death.

  Punk was furious, waving his limbs wildly and accelerating his own death. No matter how he punched, kicked, or swung his axe, Raven was always stuck to his back like a shadow.

  Leiwen didnt continue to attack, purely using him as a target for practicing [Line of Sight Concealment]. Through the system, he could see his skill level slowly rising.

  The clown bear struggled for half a minute, Punks movements gradually slowed down, his life was about to come to an end, he knelt down in front of the wall, coughing up large mouthfuls of blood.

  Levin reached around from behind and gripped Pongs neck with his left hand, savoring the increasing weakness of the struggling pig.

  "I swore last night that I wouldnt let Grandpa live. Otherwise, youd be the first one Id kill! Now it seems like I have to fulfill my oath."

  "Ugh..." Raven had Punk by the throat, and he couldnt get a word out.

  "Now I just want to ask, who was the last one to rot in the ditch?"
