Chapter 41 Passing by
Roddy even felt like he was in a dream at this moment - he had actually seen this necklace before. It was the thing that was displayed in the equipment bar when he checked his equipment the next day after he was reborn, because it was a simple "white" ordinary equipment without a closer look, just thinking that this was a family heirloom of "Lodi" and had no other function except decoration.
But now, this thing actually comes with its own skills?
Roddy can't be blamed for being careless. Ninety-nine percent of any equipment that can release skills in the "Riddle" will not be of "white" quality. It can even be said that the whiteboard equipment can cast skills. Roddy has only heard of it for five years and has never met it in person!
What is stealth? It is the iconic skill of the advanced professional "assassin"! Moreover, the stealth technique learned after level 10 transfer to assassin is only level 1, and level 3 "sneak" means that once used, enemies with a level difference of less than level 6 are almost impossible to detect!
Roddy didn't understand why this necklace had such a high-level stealth skill. He looked it carefully and was surprised to find that it had no release conditions. In other words, no matter who this necklace is given, he can directly activate the level 3 stealth technique attached to the necklace by chanting the release spell!
Looking up, Francis and others had already stepped closer to him, and the distance was less than thirty meters.
Roddy almost immediately made a decision. Without saying a word, he reached out to take off the necklace and threw it back casually, but pretended to be coughing, covered his mouth with his hands, and whispered: "Catch it, put it on!"
Sally, who was extremely nervous, didn't see clearly what Roddy was throwing. She was stunned and watched the necklace fall on the ground in front of her.
"Bang!"
The sudden sound of the tiles shattered in shock Sally. She was so nervous that her legs were a little sore, she almost screamed, but then she found that the horses led by someone among the knights in the distance knocked down the water tank beside the road.
Roddy almost shouted "God helps me." When he saw Francis and a group of soldiers looking back at the broken water jug, he immediately turned his head and waved his hand wildly to signal Sally to bring his necklace-
Sally didn't think much about it, so she bent down to pick up the necklace and put it on her neck. Before she could react to why Roddy was like this, she heard Roddy's words coming from the front:
"Follow me to read this sentence, don't ask why-'Ol'kahla'!"
.
When Francis and others turned their gaze back in front, everything in front of them seemed to be no different from what they had just happened.
Roddy tried hard to calm down his inner excitement, without looking back or speaking, but like a mercenary who was instinctively envious after seeing the noble team, he opened his eyes wide and looked at the cavalry team in front of him, turned sideways and made way, raised his head and looked at the army horses and the equipment of the soldiers with a fascination, and then passed by the other party...
The closest distance between Francis and Roddy was only three meters, and even Roddy could smell the faint perfume that the nobles often sprayed on him. The other party's eyes flashed across himself, as if he stayed on the horn bow on his back for half a second. After confirming that there was nothing abnormal, he moved his eyes expressionlessly and continued to walk forward.
This was the first head-on "confrontation" between Roddy and Francis. But the Count in front of him seemed to have no idea that the unpretentious mercenary in front of him was the culprit of disrupting all his plans - and even more so, he would not believe... Sally, whom he was looking for, was less than two meters away from him at this time.
The stealth technique has taken effect.
This skill that can be used by advanced assassin completely covered Sally's figure at this time. Because the level 3 stealth technique was enough to make Francis unable to notice anything strange even when he stood in front of her. Sally, who stood there holding his breath and did not even dare to look directly at Francis, felt that the ten seconds had passed so long. She could see her body disappear from her vision, and even the shadow that the sunset should have been lengthened without a trace...
Sally, who had cold fingers gradually recovered from the nervousness she had just now. She saw Roddy in front of her still walking forward as if nothing had happened, while Sally instinctively followed him closely. The two were still in this state when they walked through the entrance of the village guarded by the guards - the guards only saw Roddy in a mercenary outfit, but they did not notice Sally behind him at all.
And when Sally's "sneak technique" failed and she hadn't reacted, Roddy grabbed her arm without saying a word and started running. The two of them turned directly onto the remote path outside the town and rushed out...
It was not until they completely left the boundary of Kige Town that the two finally stopped. They breathed heavily, looking like dehydrated fish, and sat on the ground...
After a long time, neither of them said anything, and only the sound of breathing like a bellows was heard in the air.
The sense of gratitude for the aftermath of the disaster gradually arose. The two of them raised their heads at the same time, their eyes facing each other as if they were in harmony.
Roddy opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but found that Sally had opened her arms and rushed over directly - she hugged Roddy hard, and her arms tightly wrapped around his body, as if only in this way could she relieve the shock in her heart.
Roddy stood there like a fool, feeling like she was suddenly shocked, and her mouth was opened like a toad that was punched. The faint fragrance on Sally's body rushed straight into his nose, making him feel like his brain suddenly "crashed".
"No...it's okay...it's really okay."
Roddy didn't know how to comfort her, and patted her back with a stiff and careful movement, while Sally quickly let go of her hand. Seeing his helpless panic, her original panic expression gradually disappeared, and then her lips opened and she laughed loudly.
“Hahahahahaha…”
It seemed as if in order to exert the unspeakable pressure in her heart just now, she smiled so hard that she leaned back and forth, and even had no manners at all.
Just when Roddy felt that she should remind the other party not to laugh and get angry, Sally finally stopped consciously and then reached out to take off her necklace.
"Here, your necklace, then."
He handed Roddy the necklace that saved his life. Sally looked at Roddy and couldn't help but whispered in curiosity: "It seems to be a magic item. You know I will definitely ask why you have such things on you... But I thought about it and thought that if it is inconvenient for you to answer, please don't say it."
That's it, but she then glanced at Roddy's neck and muttered in a low voice: "This magic necklace... can be sold at a sky-high price at the auction in Hollier City."
Although he didn't mean to covet, Sally's tone was a little blamed, as if he was complaining about why Roddy didn't tell her about such a trump card in advance - but in fact, Roddy was also puzzled at the origin of this item at the moment. He was as confused and puzzled as this necklace that suddenly rescued, and even had an inexplicable fear.
This fear originated from the unknown, because the necklace seemed to be out of Roddy's cognitive category of "breaking the soil", so that he could not judge its origin at all.
The equipment level classification in "Split" is detailed and has its own naming rules. Whether it is a PVE player, a life player or a PVP player, they all know these rules very well. However, looking at the state of this necklace, Roddy was completely unsure-
Mysterious necklace
Necklace unique
Use: cast stealth (level 3), lasting for 60 seconds.
Startup spell: Ol'kahla
"This necklace of unknown origin seems to have gone through many years, but the ability that was once given has not been lost."
Cooling time: 30 minutes (28 minutes remaining).
Compared to the previous attribute, Roddy saw that it had an additional description of cooldown, but this proved the extraordinaryness of the necklace - because most magic items in the game. In addition to passively increasing attributes or halos, 99% of the items that actively release skills have a "use" limit.
Roddy once had a wrist guard that could use "spider-web entanglement" similar to Spider-Man. It is an excellent equipment for controlling skills during PVP. However, after using this skill ten times, the wrist guard completely became a mortal product, and there was no such thing as releasing the skills.
Any item that can cast skills infinitely, means that its value exceeds all magic items of the same level, not to mention that the "mysterious necklace" now comes with extremely practical stealth skills!
When facing most monsters or enemies, no one would imagine how effective this necklace would be for Roddy.
What kind of person was "Lodi" like before Rodi was reborn? Looking back at the memory, he was just an ordinary guy. His parents died, he was lonely and had a meal in the border scout team. Apart from that, there seemed to be no achievements, let alone ambitions - so where did this necklace come from in this case?
Roddy frowned at the necklace with a simple shape on her chest. It is not an exaggeration to say that its attribute color represents the word "excellent" blue. If the skill level is higher, it can be marked as "epic" purple. But in fact, it represents the "ordinary" white.
Is there a mystery in this thing?
The black metal chain is made of inconspicuous, and the pendant looks are also inconspicuous. It is decorated with three black diamonds, and no other information can be seen. Roddy sighed, as if he was talking to himself: "I only know that this thing can make you sneak."
"I know everything about starting the spell. Is it the first time you use it?"
Sally is a girl who can focus on the key points. She is not a village girl who is ignorant in the countryside, but a noble girl who also has unique insights into magical objects. The keyword "start spell" is the key to Roddy's ability to keep her here safely. If she had just brought a necklace and didn't know how to activate the stealth technique, then Sally might have encountered an unexpected situation now.
