《World of Experts 》Chapter 15: Under the Curtain of Night
Advertisement
At this moment, Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao had a frown and hesitated a little. Like the 5 archers, these 5 knights were all treasures of Twin Dragons Village.
In fact, in the setting of >, the classification of regular NPC’s professions was also the same as players.
The population of players who chose fighter and strategist was the largest. After all, fighters survived easily, and the strategists could directly live and work in the villages. Therefore, corresponding to the players, the probability of fighters and strategists appearing among the regular NPCs was also the highest.
Take the current Twin Dragons Village as an example, other than Shi Hao, Feng Tianhao and Li Yi, among the village NPCs, there were 24 fighters and 78 strategists. But there were just 5 knights and 5 archers.
Honestly speaking, if Su Xiao’s elder brother had not demanded Shi Hao to become a core member of a big force, then Shi Hao might have chosen the strategist profession after entering the game and lived an easy life in other people’s village. It was much easier to develop than killing and fighting. Especially for some nobodies without a backing. However, the core members of a big force would certainly not be life-class strategists.
“Alas! I know you all want to enter the battle. But you all will be killed in instant with your defense and HP. You all shouldn’t go!” Shi Hao eventually decided to not take the risk.
But the 5 knights didn’t want to back down. Their 15 teammates were withstanding attacks in the frontline, and their 5 companions were attacking from the rear, but what about the 5 of them? If this continues, then the 5 of them would just be watching the show from beginning to end.
Naturally! Someone might say that weren’t Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao were also watching the show for so long? But it was not the same. Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao were the core of Twin Dragons Village. They two were commanding while watching the show, but these 5 knights were doing nothing.
Speaking about it, this was also because Wang Fu had been giving them preferential treatments.
Wang Fu worked hard to give publicity and turn them into village heroes. If a hero just watched the entire battle, wouldn’t he just be a coward?
Those 5 knights had firm gaze as they loudly said: “We don’t want to become cowards!”
Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao still couldn’t make up their mind.
“Let them go!” At that time, Li Yi’s voice came. Li Yi had spent the most effort to train these knights. An elite knight was a sharp spear and wherever the spear passed, there would be no failure. Li Yi was confident in these 5 knights.
“Okay! Obey my order, you all must take those 5 bandit leaders’ lives!” Feng Tianhao was also a direct person. Since Li Yi had already spoken, he let them go.

Shi Hao also shrugged his shoulders and whispered a few words to those 5 knights: “Go, just use the tactics I said. Remember to pay attention to safety. There shouldn’t be one less person when you all return! Do you all understand?”
“Understood!” The 5 knights pulled out their sharp swords and stepped forward with firm determination. Those 5 bandit leaders also stepped forward under the cover of those flesh shields.
5 VS 5 battle, the other sides were ready. The melee might break out at any moment.
Just on the basis of attribute data, the bandit leaders had the upper hand. The bandit leaders had 45 attack, 25 defense, 25 HP and 3 Agility. As for the knights of Twin Dragons Village, 33 attack, 28.6 defense, 13.2 HP and 4 Agility. Regardless of defense or life, all were less than bandit leaders’ attack. These knights would die as long as they were hit once.
The bandit leaders had naturally guessed this point. The bandit leaders became conceited. Facing these miscellaneous fishes that could be killed in one hit, what else could be said, just kill them directly.
Shi Hao took a few steps forward, prepared to rescue at any time. After all, Shi Hao had 44 defense and 33 HP. Although he was not as abnormal as Li Yi, Shi Hao’s attribute was enough to take the attacks of bandit leaders head-on, and if he was a bit more careful, then it was very unlikely that he would be killed
Feng Tianhao also stood beside Shi Hao. He never put back his iron sword.
“Do as planned!” The 5 knights spread out. They used their speed advantage to lure bandit leaders while cleaning up the remaining ordinary bandits. They didn’t rush to attack.
The bandit leaders weren’t stupid, when the bandit leaders saw this, they naturally guessed the intention of those 5 knights was to lure them away one by one. So, they naturally had to gather together lest they would be killed one by one. Unfortunately, they didn’t know that Shi Hao wanted them to act this way.
Alas! Thinking about it, it’s lamentable. Since bandit leaders gathered together like this, weren’t they a super target? Moreover, ordinary bandits, those meat-shields blocking the arrows, around bandit leaders were gradually reduced by the swords of the knights!
Shi Hao settled down and ordered: “It’s over! Archers, fire support.”
Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish! An arrow rain swept the battlefield. The 5 bandit leaders held their big blade and desperately tried to block. But how could these fellows who had gathered together block concentrated and precise arrows? These bandit leaders’ HP was getting lower and lower.
“Brothers, quickly come to support!” The 5 bandit leaders were obviously asking the other 10 bandit leaders to come and save their lives. Unfortunately, those 10 bandit leaders had already turned into a ghost under Li Yi’s sword. C grade historical NPC’s power was not a joke.

“F***!” Upon seeing this, the 5 bandit leaders despaired, and the despair hastened their demise. The 5 knights attacked decisively and gave them the final blow.
“Run!” After all bandit leaders were dead, the ordinary bandits had no morale. This actually gave 5 knights a chance to continue to use their skills.
Who was the strongest in hunting down opponents? Twin Dragons Village’s knights were.
However, in the joy of victory, the curtain of night hid a hint of murderous intent. This murderous intent originated from Li Yidao.
“Okay! Don’t chase the cornered foes.” Shi Hao was very happy as he said: “Quickly clean up the battlefield. The 15 bandit leaders must have dropped more than 3 skill books. Be sure to not miss them.”
Speaking about it, the troops led by Li Yi had destroyed 15 bandit strongholds. At this moment, Twin Dragons Village’s warehouse stored 6 Powerful Attack, 1 Farming and 4 Precise Shooting Skill books. As for the effects of these skill books, let’s talk about it later.
Because there’s not enough time. Li Yidao was about to attack!
Li Yidao was deserved to be called a champion level pro player. He, in fact, had already arrived outside Twin Dragons Village, and upon seeing the words ‘Twin Dragons’, he was quite sure that the Twin Dragons referred to Shake the Heaven and Blowing Wind Left A Scar. Li Yidao waited for a long time. He was waiting for a chance in the night melee. But he had not expected Twin Dragons Village to be so powerful. The bandits were not their opponent. Normally, ordinary assassins would retreat upon seeing such scenes. But Li Yidao wouldn’t. Li Yidao would never retreat. Li Yidao’s sharp intuition told him that the level of Blowing Wind Left A Scar and Shake the Heaven should be the same as himself. Since this was the case, Li Yidao quickly decided to kill Blowing Wind Left A Scar first because Blowing Wind Left A Scar’s defense wouldn’t be able to withstand his sharp blade for sure. And Shake the Heaven was a fighter. Li Yidao must kill at least one first for insurance.
“Let’s go!” The cleanup of the battlefield was almost over. So, Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao walked into the village. Li Yidao was agile, and relying on some prepared life iron tools, he overcame the enclosing wall of Twin Dragons Village, then closely followed Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao. Li Yidao then pulled out his huge blade.
“See you tomorrow.” Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao parted, and Feng Tianhao arrived at the door of his room. Li Yidao also arrived at this room’s door. Li Yidao wanted to quietly kill Feng Tianhao, but Feng Tianhao had a solid foundation in martial arts. He naturally wouldn’t not sense if Li Yidao appeared behind him.
Feng Tianhao turned around, looked at Li Yidao and asked: “Who are you?”
“I’m a living person and you are a dead man!” Li Yidao dashed forward like wind and attacked. This blade move was obviously faster than any blade move he had seen before. It appeared suddenly. There was no sign at all. At this instant, Feng Tianhao saw through Li Yidao’s identity. Feng Tianhao thought, A Blade Hundred Thousand, no one has this kind of name in Twin Dragons Village. Also, general players don’t choose such a name. Only people who specialize in the assassin profession in the games choose such a name! But at this moment, Feng Tianhao basically had no time to draw out his sword. Therefore, he directly used sheath to block.
Clang, clang, clang! Only one blade move of Li Yidao’s three certain kill moves hit Feng Tianhao!
“Not bad! You have a bit of potential.” Li Yidao said with a rare admiration. But his blade didn’t stop. Li Yidao calculated and used Powerful Attack Skill. Feng Tianhao had already been hit once. If he was hit again, Feng Tianhao would die for sure.
Alas! Feng Tianhao was unable to draw out his sword and was hit again. In the dark night, Feng Tianhao stood on the same spot as if a dead body.
“You are an expert, but unfortunately, I’m better than you.” Li Yidao walked over with an indifferent look, patted Feng Tianhao’s ‘corpse’ and sighed. Such an expert died quite early in his hands. If Blowing Wind Left A Scar was left alone for a period of time, then Li Yidao might be able to have a bit more challenge. An expert like Li Yidao was very lonely and he aspired for an opponent. But Blowing Wind Left A Scar had already died, and when Blowing Wind Left A Scar reappear after three days, he would have already thrown Blowing Wind Left A Scar far behind. Blowing Wind Left A Scar could no longer become his opponent.
However, Li Yidao had sighed a bit early! Li Yidao’s calculation, in itself, was not wrong. However, the mistake lied on Li Yidao’s basis. Li Yidao didn’t know that Shi Hao had the skill, Soul of the Warrior. In addition, he also didn’t know that Shi Hao had Water Cloud Sword. The most terrible thing was, Li Yidao was too focused on Feng Tianhao. He actually didn’t notice that Shi Hao had already arrived at one side and was stealthily watching Li Yidao.
Shi Hao walked out holding an iron sword and asked: “Okay, shouldn’t you look for me next?”
Li Yidao turned around and looked at Shi Hao. He ignored ‘dead’ Feng Tianhao and replied: “Yes, after killing you, my task will be complete.”
