Seeing the Drow assassin lying on the ground, Lin Yun didn't simply let his guard down. Instead, he warily scanned his surroundings.
"D20+4+2=21." Perhaps because this time there was no specific target—or even a DC—or perhaps because the circumstances couldn't be explained outright, Lin Yun saw nothing else.
