Chapter 5: Soul-eating sting

Every time he levels up, he gains one point of Agility, which is a basic characteristic of a Thief, and almost all Assassin-type players have it.

What makes Gu Nan different from them is that while gaining one point of Agility, he also gains an additional 100% increase in Stealth status.

In other words, he gains double the Stealth when in Stealth compared to other Assassin-type professions.

This also means that once his Stealth level reaches a certain degree,

He can remain in the Stealth status indefinitely.

Of course, the most important aspects are the second and third professional characteristics.

Attacking from the back increases Attack by 100%.

While in Stealth, Movement speed increases by 50%, Attack speed increases by 50%, Attack increases by 50%, Critical Rate increases by 50%, and Critical Damage increases by 100%.

With these two attributes stacked, if Gu Nan's initial Attack is 100, attacking from the back would allow him to reach 200 Attack with the boost from the second attribute.

Then, with the boost from the third attribute, he can reach 300 Attack.

If a critical hit is triggered, the damage will reach a terrifying 600 points of Attack.

With the boost from these two professional characteristics, Gu Nan's Attack directly increased by six times!!!

Assassin-type professions are inherently best at one-hit kills. With his terrifying Attack, if he hits a player, even a Dragon Knight, a super tank, probably wouldn't be able to withstand many hits.

Unlimited Stealth status + 100% bonus for back Attacks + 50% Attack in Stealth status + 100% Critical Damage.

He's already awesome from the start; if he develops, slaying gods won't be a difficult task!

Thinking of this, Gu Nan's eyes also brightened.

While Gu Nan was deep in thought, Ten Thousand Races Continent began its countdown.

"10"

"9"

"......"

"3"

"2"

"1"

"Do you wish to log in to Ten Thousand Races Continent?"

"Yes!"

"You have successfully teleported to Yanhua Town."

In the dilapidated village, a flash of white light appeared, and dense crowds of people emerged within the village.

The originally quiet village instantly became crowded.

Noises rose and fell.

In his previous life, Gu Nan entered Ten Thousand Races Continent a week late, so the beginner village wasn't as crowded back then.

He skillfully opened his inventory.

【Crude Dagger (Common): Attack +1, level Requirement: None.】

【Crude Upper Garment (Common): Health +5, level Requirement: None.】

【Crude Pants (Common): Defense +1, level Requirement: None.】

【Worn Shoes (Common): speed +1, level Requirement: None.】

The familiar beginner's four-piece set, a long-lost sense of familiarity.

After putting on his clothes, Gu Nan squeezed out of the crowd and found Duo Wen Taoist in the eastern part of the village.

Before leaving the beginner village, one can learn basic skills from Duo Wen Taoist.

However, before Ten Thousand Races Continent opened, few people knew this.

Most people picked up their weapons and rushed directly out of the village.

Then they were bitten to death by the Mutated Red-Haired Rabbits outside the village.

"Are you an Adventurer who just entered Ten Thousand Races Continent? What can I do for you?"

After Gu Nan took the initiative to greet him, Duo Wen Taoist asked.

"I want to learn the Thief's initial skills."

Gu Nan went straight to the point.

"There's no such thing as a free lunch. To learn skills, you must pay the corresponding price..."

"No problem."

Before Duo Wen Taoist could finish speaking, Gu Nan interrupted directly.

"Adventurer, I have three Thief-related skills I can offer."

As soon as Duo Wen Taoist finished speaking, three Thief-related skills appeared out of thin air in front of Gu Nan.

【Stealth (LV1): After activating the skill, the character enters a ten-second Stealth status.

Cooldown: 60 seconds.

Magic Consumption: 1 point/second

Price: 50 copper coins】

【Windwalk (LV1): After use, it can unleash astonishing speed for a short period, increasing Movement speed by 50% for ten seconds.

Cooldown: 30 seconds.

Magic Consumption: 10 points.

Price: 50 copper coins】

【Thief Assassination (LV1): Assassinate enemies in a forward state, with a certain probability of causing the enemy to enter a stunned state, while increasing Physical Attack by 30%.

Cooldown: 20 seconds.

Magic Consumption: 10 points.

Price: 100 copper coins】

【Dual Daggers (Passive): Unlocks Dual Dagger status.

Price: 10 silver coins (1 gold coin = 100 silver coins = 10000 copper coins)】

【Sleight of Hand (LV1): After using on a specific target, there is a certain probability of successful theft. The higher the level, the higher the success rate of theft.

Cooldown: 60 seconds.

Magic Consumption: 10 points.

Price: 10 silver coins】

These five skills are the core skills for Thieves in the early stages.

He definitely had to learn them all.

However, a beginner's initial funds were only 200 copper coins.

After purchasing Thief Assassination (LV1), Windwalk (LV1), and Stealth (LV1), Gu Nan was already penniless.

The remaining two skills could only be learned later when his pockets were more ample.

Outside Yanhua Town, the clamor was incessant.

Gu Nan did not linger at the entrance of Yanhua Town and headed straight for the back mountain.

According to Gu Nan's memory, an Ancient Divine Beast Teng Snake was suppressed in the back mountain of Yanhua Town.

After Ten Thousand Races Continent merged with Water Blue Star, this Teng Snake broke free from Yanhua Town's control and began to kill indiscriminately.

Overnight, it poisoned and killed over a hundred thousand Chinese citizens.

Later, it was Gu Nan who killed it. After killing the Teng Snake, this creature dropped an SSS-level Assassin-type professional skill book, Soul Devouring Poison Sting, which could ignore target defense and apply poison Attacks.

The mature version of Soul Devouring Poison Sting could even slay gods with its poison.

This was a heaven-defying divine skill.

When Gu Nan chose the Thief profession, he originally planned to return to Yanhua Town to kill the Teng Snake and obtain the Soul Devouring Poison Sting skill after his strength became formidable.

He never expected that the Stealing the Heavens and Hiding Divinity profession would have such a heaven-defying skill as Shadowless Hand.

It ignored any target and guaranteed 100% successful theft.

With such a heaven-defying function, Gu Nan didn't need to wait until he grew stronger.

Now, relying on Shadowless Hand, it was entirely possible to steal this skill book.

Thinking of this, Gu Nan followed his memory and headed towards Fallen Dragon Cliff, where the Teng Snake was suppressed.

"Is there any big brother willing to level up with a girl? I'm a Priest, and my healing is plentiful."

"Don't think I don't know, a level 0 Priest has no healing!"

"It doesn't mean it doesn't exist in reality just because it doesn't exist in the game."

"......"

"Team up to farm rabbits, need a tank Knight."

"Brother, what's your profession? Do you want to team up?"

"Brother, ahead is the territory of the level 3 Roaring Wild Boar. If you go there at level 0, you're looking for death!"

"Before, several professional players from large guilds tried to farm level 3 Roaring Wild Boars. They couldn't even last a minute and all returned to the city for free."

"Damn it! Why don't you listen to advice?"

"Sigh, good words are hard to persuade a doomed ghost! If you want to die, then go die."

"......"

Gu Nan also knew everyone's good intentions.

However, he dared to trespass into the Roaring Wild Boar's territory, so he naturally had his own reliance.
