Chapter 1090 Smile That Isn’t Mine

Three thieves simultaneously besieged Shili Huasha, a typical wolf pack tactic, ensuring an absolute numerical advantage over the enemy in a certain area. The goal was to quickly eliminate one, then retreat swiftly and look for an opportunity to launch a second attack.

Seeing Shili Huasha surrounded, Yu Wang Ranzhi Qingchun, Ben Zhi Emo, and others waved their staffs, preparing to rescue her. However, the other two thieves accelerated, kicking and interrupting their spellcasting.

Dispel!

Evasion!

Burst!

Both sides displayed their unique abilities. In a group battle, thieves had an advantage. If one of them was being ganged up on, they could immediately use a skill like Gale Steps to escape, while the others could focus on beating down one of the opponents.

Therefore, the wolf pack tactic was most suitable for a pure thief melee team. Xue Sha and the others had already refined this tactic to an incredible level.

The best way to counter the wolf pack tactic was a pure warrior or pure paladin melee team, which could completely suppress it. However, Shili Huasha and the others were all mages. The only melee fighter was Xiao Rong Bushi Wei Wo, who was a thief.

The three thieves encircled her from all directions, trapping Shili Huasha. Ben Zhi Emo and the others could only create distance and cast spells to rescue her, but these were all dodged by the thieves using skills like Gale Steps.

Shili Huasha immediately felt immense pressure. She waved her staff, casting a Holy Light Shield on herself. Seeing Ming's dagger about to hit her, she quickly cast Fear Howl.

Ming coldly snorted and activated his Mental Inhibition skill, interrupting Shili Huasha's Fear Howl.

At that moment, the other two daggers stabbed towards her face.

Normally, if she faced any one of Ming's group, Shili Huasha was confident she could win. But facing three opponents at once, surrounded by three thieves, even if she dodged one, it wouldn't help.

Just as Ming was about to hit Shili Huasha, a dagger suddenly appeared in front of him, deflecting his attack with a crisp clang.

It was Xiao Rong Bushi Wei Wo from the side. He had timely blocked Ming's attack. While using the Parry skill, his right foot lightly hooked, tripping Ying.

In such an urgent situation, Ying didn't have time to retract his foot. After being hooked, his body lost balance. With a loud thud, he fell heavily to the ground, completely disoriented.

Shili Huasha cast a Fear spell on Feng, causing his body to run uncontrollably outwards.

The encirclement by Ming, Feng, and Ying was broken by the two of them. Xiao Rong Bushi Wei Wo's first move was amazing. Blocking with the dagger and tripping with his foot happened almost simultaneously, reaching a pinnacle of perfection. The angle of attack was also perfectly timed.

Almost instantly, everyone's gaze locked onto Xiao Rong Bushi Wei Wo. That scene from earlier lingered in everyone's minds.

This was an expert no less skilled than Wangzhe Tianxia and Sun!

How could Niu Ren Tribe have so many experts!

This was something players couldn't understand. Now another top thief comparable to Sun and Wangzhe Tianxia had emerged. Niu Ren Tribe always managed to shock people.

These ordinary players counted on their fingers. Before, the top five thieves in the entire Greenland Empire were all from Niu Ren Tribe. Now Xiao Rong Bushi Wei Wo had appeared. No one knew where he would rank. Niu Ren Tribe truly lived up to its name as a den of thieves.

Xiao Rong Bushi Wei Wo exchanged blows with Ming for a few rounds, forcing him to retreat.

The more Ming fought, the more shocked he became. When fighting Xiao Rong Bushi Wei Wo, the latter attacked extremely quickly, putting immense pressure on him. So far, only two people had given him this feeling. One was Xiao Rong Bushi Wei Wo in front of him, and the other was Nie Yan.

Xiao Rong Bushi Wei Wo interrupted Ming's group's attack, firmly holding onto Ming, the main force of the attack. Ming tried to escape several times, but was intercepted by Xiao Rong Bushi Wei Wo.

Looking at Xiao Rong Bushi Wei Wo's eerie blood-red eyes, Ming was secretly shocked. It was a pupil skill. No wonder his Stealth had been detected earlier.

Xiao Rong Bushi Wei Wo suddenly attacked. Ming felt a flash of reflected light from the dagger before his eyes. He was momentarily blinded, and a dagger stabbed into his chest.

This was Xiao Rong Bushi Wei Wo's assassination technique, which he had used repeatedly in PvP, and Ming had fallen for it.

Ming felt a stinging pain in his chest, and his movements immediately became very difficult.

He was shocked. It was a slow poison!

Before Ming could react, Xiao Rong Bushi Wei Wo's dagger had already stabbed into his forehead, and Ming fell into a stunned state.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the other thieves from Xue Sha wanted to rescue Ming, but two spells flew over almost simultaneously, striking Ming. With two loud thuds, Ming was sent flying.

When Xiao Rong Bushi Wei Wo turned his head, he discovered that Shili Huasha and Ben Zhi Emo had cooperated and killed another thief.

The situation on the field suddenly became five against three. Xue Sha's defeat was already irreversible.

Yu Wang Ranzhi Qingchun, Ben Zhi Emo, and Sha Bu Si De Huaidan killed the remaining three thieves.

The difference in strength between the two sides was too great, so there was no suspense in the battle. Experts in the audience saw that Xiao Rong Bushi Wei Wo alone could at least deal with three Xue Sha thieves. With the cooperation of Sha Bu Si De Huaidan, Shili Huasha, and the others, it would be strange if those five Xue Sha thieves didn't lose.

Xiao Rong Bushi Wei Wo eliminated Ming at the fastest speed, securing the victory. That amazing strike from earlier was recorded by the players and became important research material for countless thief players. They wanted to know how it was done. Although they understood that quick eyes and quick hands were important, that strike was not something that could be done solely based on reaction speed. It was clearly a masterpiece achieved after countless battles.

After Xue Sha's people revived, they were completely silenced. They retreated dejectedly and would ultimately become the laughingstock of all the players in First Military Academy. Some thief players who had considered joining Xue Sha secretly abandoned the idea. From then on, they had only one goal: to join Niu Ren Tribe.

The best thieves were in Niu Ren Tribe, and second-rate thieves would join organizations like Xue Sha and Zhu Shen Zhi Jian. This was the consensus of all players.

Niu Ren Tribe was definitely the sanctuary for all players who pursued skill. The density of experts in Niu Ren Tribe was unmatched by any other guild.

Fang Ruijie and the others originally wanted to cause trouble for Lanse Fengling, thereby increasing the prestige of Zhu Shen Zhi Jian in First Military Academy. But after seeing the strength of Xiao Rong Bushi Wei Wo and the others, they gave up the idea. They weren't sure they could win against Lanse Fengling and the others. If they tried to steal a chicken only to lose rice, they would be humiliated.
