Rebirth of the Thief Who Roamed The World - Chapter 566

Chapter 566




“Boss, we just received word that Alliance of Mages can’t hold on much longer . Should we dispatch some reinforcements?” Rocksplitter asked . Angel Corps was still technically allied with Alliance of Mages .

Soaring Angel shook his head and chuckled . “We only dispatched reinforcements last time because the Century Financial Group requested us to . There’s no need for that this time around . Alliance of Mages already has no chance of turning things around . Even if we send reinforcements over, it won’t be of any use . In any case, the Century Financial Group is too preoccupied fending off another major power to spare any time for Alliance of Mages right now . Plus, Asskickers United is still a long ways off from dominating the entire Viridian Empire . They’re no threat to us . Even if they defeat Alliance of Mages and Divine Protectors, there’ll be many more obstacles ahead for them . To my knowledge, another major power not slightest bit inferior to the Century Financial Group is rising up fast in the Viridian Empire, and have already acquired several dozen guilds . Let Asskickers United continue with their little game of war . Their future will be anything but peaceful . ”

Soaring Angel wasn’t the least bit concerned about the war in the Viridian Empire . Asskickers United’s Armoured Ice Catapults couldn’t reach them all the way over in the Satreen Empire . Angel Corps was currently researching high level siege weapons . In a few months time, the Armoured Ice Catapults would be obsolete .

Angel Corps’ position in the Satreen Empire was unshakeable . Meanwhile, Asskickers United still had a long journey ahead of them .

After Soaring Angel voiced his opinion, the several Angel Corps higher ups threw away any thoughts about sending reinforcements to aid Alliance of Mages . Their top priority was to continue exploring Gryphon Woodlands and obtain enough flying mounts to form a powerful aerial force! Once they established superiority in the skies, cross nation wars would become much more feasible .

With Angel Corps deciding not to lend a hand, Alliance of Mages and Divine Protectors were in a real pickle .

Guo Huai made some inquiries and discovered Angel Corps had decided not to send any aid to Alliance of Mages and Divine Protectors . He breathed a sigh of relief . As long as Angel Corps didn’t take action, things would be much easier . They could slowly chip away at Alliance of Mages’ forces .

Crazy Magic would probably be incredibly vexed to find out that Angel Corps wasn’t sending any reinforcements .

While Asskickers United’s Armoured Ice Catapults continued razing Alliance of Mages’ strongholds to the ground, two Trebuchets were completed . Alliance of Mages’ fate was sealed . All that was left to do was to decide how to collect the spoils .

Guo Huai estimated that in at most three days the Edgarton Stronghold would be transformed into a pile of ruins .

Their dominance in the war filled Asskickers United’s players with confidence . Their momentum was unstoppable .

Since the war seemed to be progressing smoothly, Nie Yan could focus on training his skills without worry . In the previous timeline, even Level 100 and higher Shadow Dancers wouldn’t necessarily be able to raise a Freedom Skill to Rank 8 . After he finished this skill training session, challenging the class advancement quest would be a piece of cake .



Before Nie Yan’s eyes was a brilliant future .

Nie Yan immersed himself in training, hunting down Barbarian Warriors while exploring deeper into the map .

This Land of Dreams was quite vast . No matter how far Nie Yan walked, he couldn’t see any end in sight . His harvests were ample, obtaining more than 50 skills books . This place only dropped skill books, nothing else . However, many of these skill books were high quality drops . So, there was nothing to complain about . If he threw these skill books into the treasury, Asskickers United’s players would probably go wild with joy . A few Thief skill books dropped, one of which was for a Freedom Skill . However, with so many skills already in his arsenal, continuing to learn more would have a negative effect . So, he could only put it aside for now . He would train all his current skills up first .

After climbing up a hill, Nie Yan gazed at a hollow basin in the prarie up ahead . A giant Barbarian Warrior entered his sight . It resembled a grizzly and was about two heads taller than the ordinary Barbarian Warriors . It was clad in spiked golden armour and wielded a supersized greataxe .

“It’s probably an Elite,” Nie Yan muttered . He cautiously approached the Barbarian Warrior from behind until he was only 30 meters away, then activated Transcendent Insight .

Berserk Barbarian Warrior (Elite): Level 120
Health: 3,000,000/3,000,000

“I was right! It is an elite! Damn, what a crazy stupid amount of health too . ” Nie Yan’s heart trembled . Any Elites Level 100 and up were incredibly tough to deal with . He was absolutely no match for it in his current state .

After thinking for a moment, Nie Yan decided to leave . Out of all his skills, only the Rank 8 Backbreaker could deal any appreciable damage to the Berserk Barbarian Warrior . Sadly, a single skill wasn’t enough take it down .

Just as Nie Yan was about to leave, something flashing in the grass beside the Berserk Barbarian Warrior caught his eye .

This was a seven coloured radiance, incomparably beautiful and ever-changing .

At first, Nie Yan thought it was the light reflecting off the Berserk Barbarian Warrior’s armour .



“Is that a treasure chest? For it to have that kind of visual effect, it should at least be Sub Legendary, maybe Legendary-grade . ”

Nie Yan moved about 10 meters closer .

The Berserk Barbarian Warrior started moving around, each step shaking the earth .

Seeing the Berserk Barbarian Warrior getting restless, Nie Yan hurriedly calmed his breathing and buffed himself with several skills that boosted stealth .

After failing to discover anything, the Berserk Barbarian Warrior returned to an idle state .

It appeared the Awareness of the Berserk Barbarian Warrior wasn’t that high . Nie Yan continued approaching closer . When he was about seven meters away, it finally noticed something and started scanning around .

Nie Yan halted his steps and gazed at a patch of knee-length grass up ahead . Hidden there was a small chest made out of some unknown metal . It appeared quite sturdy . Hanging off the lid was a fist-sized lock .

Inspecting this chest, Nie Yan determined it was Sub Legendary-grade .

Nie Yan observed the Berserk Barbarian Warrior . Although it was roaming around, it always maintained a distance no further than five meters form the chest .

He had to find some way to lead the Berserk Barbarian Warrior away!

Having Lil’ Gold draw aggro was one option . However, Nie Yan wanted to avoid Lil’ Gold dying if possible . After thinking for a bit, he decided to summon a Paladin from Divine Recruitment . At worst, he would have to pay a penalty fee if the hired Paladin died .

Nie Yan returned to his previous spot about 30 meters away from the Berserk Barbarian Warrior . He opened up Divine Recruitment and summoned the Rank 10 Paladin, Kilwater . A Rank 10 Paladin was much higher specced than the ones he summoned previously, especially in terms of movements speed .

“Greeting Sir Nirvana Flame, I’m willing to serve!” Kilwater greeted .

Nie Yan had Kilwater slowly approach the Berserk Barbarian Warrior .

When Kilwater arrived at the 20-meter mark, the Barbarian Warrior turned to stare at him . However, it didn’t move from its position to attack him .

Kilwater drew closer and closer, 19 meters, 18 meters… continuing to test the Berserk Barbarian Warrior’s limit . Nie Yan broke out in a cold sweat . He had Kilwater buff himself with several speed boosting skills and prepare to run at a moment’s notice .

When Kilwater reached the 13-meter mark, the Berserk Barbarian Warrior couldn’t hold back any longer and charged at him .

“It’s now or never . ” Nie Yan’s heartstrings were stretched taut .

Kilwater raised his sword and cast Purify on the Berserk Barbarian Warrior .

As the Berserk Barbarian Warrior closed in, Kilwater turned tail and fled .

The Berserk Barbarian Warrior’s greataxe lit up with a blazing brilliance as it chopped down with unrivalled might .

Kilwater suddenly accelerated and covered six meters in an instant .

With a loud bang, the Berserk Barbarian Warrior struck the ground, causing cracks to rapidly spread in the earth . Almost as if a mountain was being torn apart, dirt and crushed rock flew everywhere .

Fortunately, Nie Yan had passed down his orders in time, allowing Kilwater to escape .

However, the Berserk Barbarian Warrior’s assault wasn’t over . It let out a furious roar, causing a powerful sound wave to spread out .

War Roar!

Kilwater barely made it a few steps before a powerful sound wave struck him in the back, sending him flying and crashing into the ground .

Kilwater stumbled back to his feet and continued fleeing . He restored his own health and gave himself a few buffs .

However, Kilwater was too slow . The Berserk Barbarian Warrior quickly caught up with Charge and ruthlessly chopped down with its greataxe .

Nie Yan’s pupils contracted . What frightening attack speed!

Ordinary Barbarian Warriors attack quited slowly . However, the Berserk Barbarian Warrior’s attacks were fast to the point of being overpowered!

With a bang, Kilwater was sent flying . Stunned for a few seconds, the Berserk Barbarian Warrior finished him off with one final chop .

Kilwater died .

The Berserk Barbarian Warrior snorted out hot air from its nose . It lingered around Kilwater’s corpse for a while before returning to its original position beside the chest .

The Berserk Barbarian Warrior’s strength was too frightening . It wouldn’t be easy for Nie Yan to fetch whatever was inside that Sub Legendary-grade chest .

Nie Yan initially planned to have Kilwater lure the Berserk Barbarian Warrior away . Now it seemed like that plan had gone up in smoke .

Nie Yan looked down at his skill bar . “Maybe I’ll have a chance after training the rest of my Freedom Skills to Rank 7 or 8…” He could only give up for the time being . After doing some more training, he could come back and try again .
