Tang Rou clearly wasn't too busy. When she heard Chen Guo call, she responded and immediately went to search.

Glory, scavenging, Deception, of the three keywords, Tang Rou only managed to get the last two right with some difficulty. After searching again, she finally found the results she wanted and immediately read them aloud.

Not only Chen Guo, but Ye Xiu was also listening with his ears perked. Unfortunately, the search results contained very little true information about Deception.

A lone wolf who cruelly scavenges. The essence of this person can be summarized in these two phrases. Most of the other content was the cursing of players whose equipment had been scavenged by this guy. After that, there were some literary and artistic, fresh little pieces of writing from people who thought Deception was quite unique, but Chen Guo strongly stopped Tang Rou after she read only a few sentences.

"What is all this nonsense?" Chen Guo said.

"Heh, this guy is quite mysterious," Ye Xiu commented.

"Can we catch him?" Chen Guo had rushed over according to the coordinates on Ye Xiu's screen. She had already seen Lord Grim, but not Deception.

"Of course, that kid picked up so much stuff, how fast can he run?" Ye Xiu said with a smile.

"But we can't even see him. Where do you think he went?" Chen Guo looked at Ye Xiu's screen, which also didn't show Deception's figure. Ye Xiu's movements were extremely fast. He had activated his mechanical wings to chase after Deception as soon as he jumped over the wall. Chen Guo had been watching Ye Xiu's screen the whole time, but she still hadn't seen Deception's figure.

"He's nearby," Ye Xiu said with certainty. Lord Grim also stopped at this moment.

"How do you know?" Chen Guo was still rushing over.

"Based on his movement speed, he can't escape my current field of vision," Ye Xiu said confidently. The view on his screen was constantly rotating, obviously searching in all directions.

"You mean this guy is hiding?" Chen Guo asked.

"Yeah, we need to find him quickly," Ye Xiu said.

"What's the rush?"

"He'll be out of combat soon, go offline immediately, where are we going to find him?" Ye Xiu said.

"Oh!" Chen Guo suddenly understood.

In Glory, you can't normally log off in a combat state. Using methods like closing the program or pulling the power cord is an abnormal method. The character will remain in the game for a moment, becoming a lamb to the slaughter. It's better to carefully hide and wait to get out of combat before safely exiting. That way, there won't be any problems.

"Where did this guy hide..." Chen Guo said as she arrived in the area, her character looking around. The street was empty, so there was no one. The high points like rooftops were also under Ye Xiu's surveillance, so there were no problems. The only possibility was that he was in a room somewhere. Town maps were annoying because there were too many places to hide. Chen Guo hated this type of map the most when playing in the arena. She really didn't like hide-and-seek games at all.

"Room 257, 186, go take a look," Ye Xiu suddenly said after scanning a few times.

"Oh?" Chen Guo identified the direction.

"No sound, so we didn't trigger any monsters. It looks like this is the only direction," Ye Xiu said.

"Aren't you afraid of alerting him?" Chen Guo asked.

"Not afraid," Ye Xiu said.

"Okay," Chen Guo responded. Soft Mist immediately charged forward, firing her cannon as she went. Chen Guo didn't dare to be careless. Deception's skill was clearly that of an extraordinary expert.

"Be careful!" Chen Guo, who was charging happily, suddenly heard Ye Xiu shout.

Chen Guo was an experienced player. No matter what kind of danger, rolling away at this moment was always the right thing to do. A little flustered, she didn't bother to identify the direction and rolled on the spot. She was just about to ask what was going on when Soft Mist suddenly rose into the air, and under her, Deception burst out of the ground.

Earth Shattering Strike!

Chen Guo immediately understood. Her random roll without identifying the direction didn't avoid this guy's hidden sneak attack from underground. Thinking that Deception had struck for a bloody arrow and a bar of health, she was a little nervous. But when she looked at Soft Mist's health bar, the health taken away by this Earth Shattering Strike was far less than she had feared.

"Nothing amazing!"

Chen Guo muttered to herself. She had experience fighting against all the classes in Glory over the years. After suffering this move, she could immediately determine that Deception's attack power might not even be as good as her Soft Mist. Thinking this, she gained a bit more confidence and prepared to counterattack to show this guy a thing or two. But Deception's attacks weren't high, but his control was really fast.

Soft Mist had just been knocked into the air by his Earth Shattering Strike when she saw him turn his back and swing his hands behind him as if surrendering...

Chen Guo immediately recognized this pose. This was another ninja skill: Back Throw!

Chen Guo, who hadn't expected Deception to follow up with a Back Throw so quickly, was shocked. She was just thinking about counterattacking, but now she just wanted to use a Flying Cannon to quickly create some distance. Unfortunately, she was still a beat too slow. The long rope on the ninja blade that Deception threw from behind wrapped around Soft Mist's neck. With a crisscross pull, Soft Mist was immediately dragged behind him. In mid-air, her back arched, and as she landed, he threw her to the ground with a back throw.

The damage wasn't very high, but this skilled and rapid series of attacks had clearly shown Chen Guo the gap in their controls.

But Chen Guo wasn't afraid to die. After suffering two losses in a row, she was also annoyed and had long since decided to fight to the death. Back Throw was a grab skill, so it was impossible to avoid falling down using a quick recovery. However, Deception didn't take the opportunity to follow up with a sweep attack. He turned around and jumped again.

Chen Guo quickly controlled Soft Mist to get up, her hand cannon already on her shoulder, ready to fire a magnificent attack. But she saw a dark light in front of her. With a "poof" sound, Soft Mist's body stiffened, and a bloody arrow spurted out from her forehead. Deception, seeing Soft Mist get up, had turned around and shot a Hidden Arrow, hitting Soft Mist's head.

Hidden Arrow was a level 5 ninja skill, so the damage definitely wasn't high, but being hit had a strong stiffening effect. Soft Mist was hit by one, so she couldn't release her attack. Her body stiffened, and she watched as Deception ran away a little further.

"I'm going to kill him!!!" Chen Guo, who had suffered consecutive losses, was a little exasperated. Unlike Tang Rou, who would only grit her teeth and express herself with actions, Chen Da, the boss, had to shout out slogans to vent her emotions when she was agitated.

"Kill who?" Tang Rou heard that it seemed lively over here, so she quickly put down her game and came to watch.

"Don't worry, don't worry, I'll come, I'll come!" Ye Xiu's Lord Grim was on the side! It wasn't that he didn't come to help, but the fight between Deception and Chen Guo was just a flash in the pan. From the Earth Shattering Strike to the Back Throw to the Hidden Arrow used to retreat, it was just a moment's work.

Chen Guo heard Ye Xiu's voice, and then saw him and Lord Grim flying down from the roof, intercepting Deception, who was preparing to continue running. His sword was already out of its sheath, and the magnificent half-moon light of Draw Sword slashed down from the sky.

Deception's reaction was really fast. He suddenly stopped. The sword light fell, and dirt flew up one step in front of Deception.

"God, is your accuracy too bad?" Chen Guo said with dissatisfaction, seeing that Ye Xiu's attack missed.

"Don't you have any knowledge? This is called prediction attack," Ye Xiu said.

"Where did the attack go?" Chen Guo asked.

"He predicted and dodged. This guy has some skill," Ye Xiu said. Lord Grim had already landed and was standing in front of Deception, blocking his path.

Deception didn't just stand there. He stopped abruptly to dodge the Draw Sword, and then his body rushed diagonally. Seeing Lord Grim reach out to block him, he waved his hand and threw Hidden Arrows, but unlike when he attacked Chen Guo, he threw three Hidden Arrows this time.

This could be said to be the Hidden Arrow's hidden attribute, which was to launch more Hidden Arrows at once through manipulation. In theory, it was similar to the Swordsman's Sword Dance Steps, which required manipulation to achieve the effect.

Deception launched three Hidden Arrows at once, forming a triangular shape towards Lord Grim, sealing off the angles quite nicely. But Ye Xiu had so much experience that he didn't care about three Hidden Arrows at all. He didn't stop his diagonal charge at all. When the Hidden Arrows were right in front of him, he performed a Z-shaped shaking operation. What was even more different was that the character also sidestepped in the middle, twisting through the gap between the Hidden Arrows that couldn't be passed through in a straight line.

Deception was obviously a little overconfident. He thought he could safely slip away after throwing three Hidden Arrows, and didn't expect that the other party could directly pass through his three Hidden Arrows. It wasn't until Lord Grim's Myriad Manifestations Umbrella transformed into a priest's weapon, a scythe, and swung it from behind towards Deception that this guy was suddenly shocked.

His reaction was still very fast. Deception did a backflip, and Lord Grim's scythe swung through the air. Deception jumped up in mid-flip, turned around, and saw Lord Grim diagonally behind him. He immediately raised both hands to his chest and quickly formed a mudra.

"Fire Style?" Ye Xiu smiled, but Deception was shocked to hear it.

The ninja class was a hybrid of physical and magical damage. A very distinctive feature was that some of this class's release-type skills didn't require the player to wait for the reading bar after completing the operation like a mage. For the ninja class, the reading bar process required the player's operation to complete. The action of the character in the game was the hand seal.

From this, it could be seen that if a player's hand speed was extremely fast, then their mudras in the game would also be very fast, and the reading bar would be very fast. Relying on operation could improve the reading speed, which was something that mages couldn't do when releasing spells.

Deception's mudra operation was obviously very skilled. The character's hands were in front of his chest in a dazzling array of mudra gestures, even he himself couldn't see clearly. But he didn't expect that the other party could see through his skill at a glance from the mudra gestures.

But the matter had come to this point. Could he cancel the skill? Deception didn't think much about it. He completed the mudra and immediately drew his knife. When the ninja blade was drawn from its scabbard, it was already a burning flame, rampaging wildly towards Lord Grim.
