"Thief?"
Mu You was stunned. There was actually an identity like that?
A skin that could steal things-this was truly the first time he had heard of one.
"Where are you?" Mu You hurriedly asked.
"At... the entrance to Peaceful Village. I'm about to respawn..." Xiao Ya said.
"Stay put. Wait for me."
Mu You controlled his character and headed all the way to the village entrance. After circling around nearby, he soon found a "Nameless Person."
Judging by the level, this had to be Xiao Ya, but he found no one else nearby.
That was the trouble with a text-based game. He could only see words, not the actual scene, so he couldn't even tell whether the other person had left.
He moved his character back and forth several times at the nearby intersection, but no new character notifications appeared.
Mu You was just wondering whether he should drop a treasure on the ground and try to lure the other person out.
Just then, new text suddenly appeared in the game.
[A level 10 Thief ambushed you and slit your throat, severely injuring you. You lost "Lucky Dust." The Thief attacked you. After a chaotic battle with the Thief, you unfortunately lost. Lifespan -1. Remaining lifespan: 504 years. You also lost the "Pumpkin Lantern," which the Thief picked up.] [Before dying, you saw the opponent's attributes through the Omniscient Crystal: level 10 player (The Bereaved). Attributes: Strength 15, Agility 40, Intelligence 20, Constitution 15, HP 1,500, MP 2,000. Currently equipped skin: Thief Saint.]
"I couldn't win?"
Mu You had never expected this result. He was a level eight player, with ten more attribute points than other players of the same level, yet he could still get killed...
He checked the opponent's level again. Level 10... Damn it,
