Rebirth of the thief who roamed around the world (BOOK 1)

Chapter 184 - Splitting Edge

"Those Ash Cloaked Heretics are Level 32 Elites," Nie Yan informed. He reappeared in front of Tuoba and Forthright after sneaking back.

"Level 32 Elites...? We definitely can't deal with them." Tuoba wrinkled his brows. It was impossible for them to deal with three Level 32 Elites with their current line up. He estimated they'd all be wiped out after a single round of spells.

"Should we head back and find some more party members?" Forthright asked, putting away the greatsword in his hand.

"No, let those bunch of scoundrels be. They definitely won't come. All of the Withered Leaf players are preoccupied with running dungeons. I'm guessing they probably won't have any free time until the day after tomorrow. Besides, we're going to have to log off in thirty minutes anyway. So let's call it a day. We'll bring more people with us next time," Tuoba suggested after checking the server time.

"You're right. There isn't enough time left today," Nie Yan said. Thirty minutes wasn't long enough for him to explore the central hall. He was better off finding a safe place to log out.

"Are you planning to return to Calore?" Tuoba glanced at Nie Yan and asked.

Nie Yan shook his head. "I'm going to explore a bit deeper before logging off."

"Really? You still want to go further inside?" Forthright asked in surprise. Exploring the depths of the Light Monastery by himself... was he looking to die?

Tuoba was also bewildered. Although Nie Yan's strength could be considered decent, he absolutely was not a match for these Elites.

"Don't forget, I'm a Thief." Nie Yan smirked.

Tuoba stared blankly, then let out a clear laugh. "You're right, I almost forgot!"

The Thief class had the innate advantage of being able to go where other classes couldn't. An ordinary Thief absolutely wouldn't dare to explore particularly dangerous areas, but Tuoba made the mistake of judging Nie Yan as an ordinary Thief.

Tuoba and Forthright had witnessed Nie Yan's capabilities for themselves. Maybe he really could sneak into the central hall by relying on his skills.

"If you find any Paladin equipment, save them for me," Tuoba said. He was a bit impressed by Nie Yan for daring to explore such a dangerous place.

"Me too! I need Warrior equipment," Forthright loudly chimed in from the side.

"I'm just going inside to take a look. I can't guarantee that I'll be able to bring anything back," Nie Yan replied. He was also going there for the sake of retrieving the Chapter of Justice. As for other things, they'd be truly difficult to obtain. But who could know for certain? He might just find some amazing treasure inside.

"No problem, just keep it in mind. We'll be heading back now," Tuoba said. There was no point in them staying here any longer.

"Mhm, sure!" Nie Yan nodded. Tuoba and Forthright definitely couldn't progress any further today, unless they were somehow able to bring some people back here to clear out the Ash Cloaked Heretics in a short span of time.

"See ya later, pal! Remember to get me a few pieces of Warrior equipment," Forthright said with a wide grin.

"Don't worry. If I find any Warrior equipment, I'll definitely save them for you." Nie Yan chuckled. He felt Forthright's character truly matched his name, straightforward and without any hidden schemes. He had a good impression of Tuoba and Forthright. They were certainly people worth befriending.

Although Nie Yan had reincarnated, he didn't feel his skills would allow him to triumph over everyone. Even so, having knowledge of the future possessed one very large advantage-and that was the ability to recruit various heaven-defying talents to his side. With Tuoba and Forthright in the guild, Asskickers United gained two more experts.
