Chapter 485: Tracking

I compared the two pieces of equipment, discarding the magic resistance, strength and such attributes that don't really affect me.

Su Sheng discovered that if he switches to the Freedom Medal, he would gain 70 more agility and a Decontrol Skill.

But it would cost him 40 points of attack and defense, and 900 HP.

It seems…

Not worth it.

Besides, the Decontrol Skill isn't exactly essential for him, and the agility boost is just icing on the cake, especially since he already has Lion Hunt.

The other accessory slot, equipped with the Phoenix Flame Earring, is even less worthwhile; although it adds some attributes, the Survival Skill is certainly more important than those few stats.

Thinking that far, Su Sheng simply put the items away.

He wouldn't use them himself; not worth it.

But Su Sheng has already found a new owner for them… Huan Jie!

Although she has already reclassed to an Elf Ranger, she is still an agility‑based class.

Coincidentally, Su Sheng remembers that Huan Jie doesn't seem to have a Decontrol Skill yet.

After packing the items, Su Sheng flipped onto his horse and rode off, still under the Lion Hunt effect; in a moment… Su Sheng vanished from sight.

…

…

About two minutes later.

Swish~

Two assassin players appeared right beside the scene.

"Mo Wen, Qian Chen has left, right?"

"He left, but it's a shame we caught up here; going deeper would be troublesome."

"Yeah, didn't expect that Shenshiaorengfeng was so good, he actually ran this far."

"Alright, no need to dwell on this, let's go patrol elsewhere."

"Hmm."

The two assassins then resumed stealth and walked toward the distance.

Rustle~

In ten seconds…

A dead leaf under a tree rustled faintly.

…

…

Interesting.

Su Sheng watched the vanished assassins with interest, then quietly followed.

At first, Su Sheng really didn't notice there were other assassins nearby.

After all, Su Sheng's attention was fully locked on Shenshiaorengfeng.

Since Shenshiaorengfeng is a master of that level, Su Sheng had to give his all; otherwise a momentary distraction could let him escape.

Only when Shenshiaorengfeng entered a strong invisibility…

While Su Sheng was fully focused on searching for Shenshiaorengfeng, he realized something was off around him; it seemed two assassins were hiding nearby.

But their hiding methods were clumsy, and being two people, Su Sheng knew they weren't Shenshiaorengfeng.

After he completely dealt with Shenshiaorengfeng, those two assassins still hadn't shown themselves.

Su Sheng grew curious, so he pretended to leave, switched to the Cloak of Invisibility, and returned unseen.

After waiting a while, the two assassins finally appeared.

They concealed their nicknames, and Su Sheng didn't know whose assassins they were.

But it's not a big issue; following them reveals everything.

Anyway, now the Gentleman Rogue Combination is once again blocked in Baihu Main City.

According to Su Sheng's calculation, those two guys shouldn't be at Head Iron.

After all, Lioumangmiaorenfeng even pulled out green equipment to use.

And Shenshiaorengfeng just dropped such a small rare item.

They probably feel quite annoyed now; on average each lost two to three levels, and regaining those levels will take a long time.

If nothing unexpected happens, those two guys will probably quit, and are expected to use a Teleport Array to go to other Main Cities to grind.

Of course, it's not 100% certain.

After all, their thought processes can't be judged by normal logic.

Later, Su Sheng has some plans.

But for now it's not urgent; Su Sheng is now even more curious about what mysterious thing those two assassins are up to.

Su Sheng keeps a certain distance, ensuring he doesn't lose the trail of the two assassins while also making sure they don't spot him.

But those two guys' sloppy techniques and operations probably have a low chance of noticing him.

…

"Brother Su, those two guys really didn't show up."

At that moment, Chen Guan's Private Chat came through.

"Hmm, probably heading to another Main City."

"Hold on a bit longer; if the Gentleman Rogue Combination doesn't appear, we can disband."

Su Sheng, while recovering, glanced at some people in his friends list; no messages had arrived yet.

After confirming there was no problem in Baihu Main City, Su Sheng calmly followed the two assassins in front of him.

Although the two assassins were maintaining a stealth state ahead.

But in front of Su Sheng they walked flamboyantly, no different from that abysmal stealth technique.

Or perhaps…

They simply didn't think anyone would notice them, so they offered no concealment.

Su Sheng followed calmly.

…

…

"Brother, I died again."

"You've come back; I saw it."

"My Freedom Medal fell."

"What a waste."

"It's all your fault for insisting on the idea of killing Yan Huang's people."

"What do you mean blame me? You agreed at the start, didn't you?"

"Wasn't it you who suggested it first?"

"Alright, now's not the time to argue!"

"Now we should figure out how to get rid of Yan Huang."

…

The atmosphere became briefly quiet.

…

After a while…

"How about we concede?"

"If we keep dying, our level will drop below 40, and our gear is almost gone."

"Then we surrender."

"Alright, we'll quietly use the Teleport Array to go directly to another Main City to level up."

"Yeah, we'll let Yan Huang's people play here themselves; we won't join them."

"Fine, that's the plan."

Thus, the two guys cheerfully entered stealth mode.

They stealthily made their way to the Teleport Array and then arrived at another Main City.

After arriving at the other Main City,

"We'll level up in the other Main City while Yan Huang's people guard the air."

"Haha, we're so clever."

"It was clearly my idea; I'm the clever one, not us."

"Yes, yes, you're the clever one."

"Then since I'm the smarter one, I'm the older brother!"

"No, I'm the older brother!"

"I'm the older brother!!"

The two guys continued stealthily moving toward the outskirts.

They were also scared; Mo Wen and Qian Chen found their location again.

They argued while advancing.

Only after reaching a suitable leveling area did they start killing monsters.

Both were skilled, and their coordination was seamless; leveling felt like flowing clouds.

Unaware…

When they were leveling, a player squad far away saw them

and then avoided that spot.

…

…

Su Sheng, following the two assassins ahead, wound around for about twenty minutes and finally

These two assassins have almost toured the entire area.

These two assassins had basically toured the whole area.

Clearly they were on patrol.

【113】 After the two assassins passed through a grove, Su Sheng saw a group of players forming an arc, blocking the entrance…
