The Great Thief Chapter 1599

Chapter 1599: 1599
When Buggy was still shouting, Lu Li already saw the scene taking place .
He hadn’t revealed himself, firstly because he wasn’t sure if Rexxar would attack without warning . Secondly, there were a lot of people picking up equipment, so one person didn’t really make a difference . Finally, he was worried that there might still be some enemies who had escaped .
Lu Li hadn’t arrogantly thought that he was the main character in this world . But since he could use Rexxar’s Aggro distance to live, then why hadn’t the others also figured this out?
Like Blood Dagger!
Lu Li’s eyes looked at the Thief hiding his tracks behind him . If he wasn’t mistaken, that person was Glory Capital’s number one thief, Blood Dagger .
Before Lu Li stepped into the gaming circle, the position of the number one Thief was never stable, but Blood Dagger was, without a doubt, one of the most competitive candidates . Since Glory Capital was the most powerful guild, he was able to become the strongest Thief in the gaming circle, which was enough to see where the problem was .
“Calm down a little . Be careful of pickpocketing Thieves, but also don’t think about that too much . Keeping picking up equipment; they can’t help it,” Lu Li said, changing his form . He had transformed into a dwarf .
The NPC’s dwarf appearance was human . It was still too easy for him to be associated if he kept his original form .
Because of this, he disguised himself as belonging to a different race . Someone must have really had a crazy imagination to associate Lu Li with an NPC under these circumstances .
After this, he slowly kept on looting .
Buggy and his team were outstanding assassins, but compared to Blood Dagger, there was still a huge difference . Lu Li needed to play a part himself for the ensuing battle to be quick and decisive .
Another Thief had been pickpocketed by Blood Dagger when they were bending over to pick up equipment, but this time, everyone had taken precautions . The Thief still had some remaining HP, so he had clearly managed to activate his damage reduction in time .

Two Thieves nearby attacked in Blood Dagger’s direction, stabbing at his calm shadow .
Blood Dagger laughed coldly in his heart . He didn’t care about these two players at all . He might have had a lot of opponents in his mind’s eye, they certainly didn’t include these two .
As the saying went, you didn’t know how much things cost until you had to buy them . Blood Dagger didn’t feel that the equipment that had been stolen was a major loss at all . He just felt that his dignity had been violated . Could Glory Capital’s equipment be picked up so easily?
Blood Dagger dodged to the side, continuing to attack this Thief who had already lost more than half of his HP .
The Thief who was being attacked wasn’t going to stand there like a target dummy until he died . What was more, he knew that his task at the moment was to try and extend the time as long as possible . He needed to create an opportunity for the others to surround and attack .
Damage Reduction, healing, drinking potions – all the methods of survival he could use, he used .
Even the most famous competitor was still a person, and since they were a person, there was a limit to their capabilities . He didn’t dare think about the afterlife . If he could keep on living, that was the biggest certainty to him .
However, reality was cruel . As a Thief, it turned out that he had missed Blood Dagger’s earlier Ignition and didn’t use any of his Ultimate Skills .
Thieves had a lot of skills . When attacking normally, they would normally save 1 or 2 Combo Points . The more Combo Points there were, then the more damage would be dealt when using an Ultimate Skill .
Without using an Ultimate Skill, he was able to drop Blood Dagger’s HP to just over half .
With a Backhand Backstab, Blood Dagger threw down his target to the ground, who was still desperately trying to heal himself . After this, he indifferently looked over at those two unforgiving Thieves who still wanted to attack him, before taking a step back to conceal himself in the shadows .

“Number 12, go forward 6 yards . Number 9, go left . Um, go slowly, and be aware of your surroundings . Number 8, stay were you were – don’t move . If you notice anything, send a warning straight away . Others, come over first . Everyone, make sure you stay 2 yards away from each other…” Lu Li spoke, giving rapid instructions . The few dozen Thieves under Buggy’s command followed, continuing to move around and change positions .
In a battle in Dawn, one plus one didn’t necessarily equal two . Because two people had two brains, it was difficult to synchronize them for optimal effectiveness .
That was why a lot of guild managers liked to hire those who had gone through real-life training, like army veterans, as they were good at following commands .
Buggy, being an underground figure, certainly couldn’t attract these kinds of people to join .
However, speaking of following orders, those gangsters weren’t necessarily all bad .
When you were on the road, the principle was survival of the fittest . This was the bloody rule that these gangsters, bearing their own personal prestige, followed .
They wanted to keep existing had to unconditionally follow the commands of the authorities . Lu Li’s identity in this group was secret . Apart from a few veterans, no one knew that the Dwarf was actually Lu Li . However, to Buggy and Blacky he was the undisputed leader .
Soon, Blood Dagger realised in surprise that those he thought were insignificant ants made actions that posed a threat to him . No matter which path he chose, it seemed he would be somewhere that the opponent had considered . At this, there was nothing he could do but to keep changing his position .
Blood Danger almost gave away his whereabouts quite a few times .
If there was a Mage accompanying these Thieves’ actions, Blood Dagger felt like he might have already been exposed earlier .
“Boss, I just felt like there was someone in front of me to my left . How far exactly I don’t know…”
“Boss, there’s someone behind me…man, he didn’t do anything . He’s already gone…”
“Boss, he’s in front of me . Do I attack? Do I need to attack…”
These pieces of information were all reported back to Lu Li . Although the field grew smaller and smaller, there was more and more information . Lu Li could almost confirm where Blood Dagger was . Since he didn’t try to just escape and get away at the beginning, Blood Dagger was now already like the proverbial turtle stuck in a jar .
Although Blood Dagger felt it was more and more troublesome, he still thought that he would get away today .
Some tracks had been discovered, and some tracks he had left behind on purpose . He needed to test out the power of this group of mysterious Thieves, to see if they were self-aware, and how far away before they were aware of themselves .
He only wanted to leave . He didn’t think that these people would wait themselves .
Because of this, he didn’t go at all . His aim was to give these Thieves hope, to make them feel like they were able to wait themselves . That way, they would naturally go back to picking up equipment . When Glory Capital’s main forces arrived, not a single person here could run away .
Both sides were mutually calculating the other, until…Lu Li attacked!
