Niklas tapped lightly on the attic window. [No pop-up novel website]
No one responded.
He pushed the window gently and locked it? How could this stump a veteran thief? Nicholas took out a wire and pulled it a few times. The window opened and he jumped in silently.
This is just a loft less than fifteen feet tall, with a bed, a table and a chair. There was a small box under the bed, with the roof above his head, and Nicholas had rummaged through it countless times.
He swore that if there were really magic potions or gold coins hidden in this room, he would have found them long ago! But every time, he watched Lu Yuan take out the hidden things from unexpected places, which made him grit his teeth with hatred.
Picking up the pillow and opening it, sure enough, there was only a note inside, "Am I stupid enough to leave it here?!"
"damn it!"
He smashed the pillow on the bed, then immediately picked it up, patted it, and put it in the same place. Sure enough, there was a note there: "There used to be twelve hairs arranged in a pentagon. Are you sure you can restore them?"
"I'm going to kill you!" He reluctantly pulled out twelve hairs and placed them in a pentagon shape. "A professional thief must not destroy the scene. This is the principle!" He encouraged himself.
He got under the bed, pulled the box out, and then searched carefully under the bed. No! I knocked the bed board piece by piece, but still nothing! The box was opened and there were only a few books inside, but still nothing! where is it? He looked around.
"Hey, Nick, haven't you found it yet?!" The sudden voice frightened him, and he took a big step back and hit the wall hard. The housekeeper, Lu Yuan, half-sat on the edge of the bed with a smile on his face, and the bunch of things fluttering in his hand were the hair he had pulled out.
His face turned red and he said, "Lu Yuan, when did you come back? I was helping you clean up your room."
Before Lu Yuan could speak, he quickly changed the subject and said, "You came back early today. Didn't I help you arrange the meeting and come to you in advance? If you are free, we will leave now ?”
"Let's go", Lu Yuan jumped out of bed and pulled out the box under the bed. Nicholas watched with wide eyes as he opened the box, took out a book, and took out a piece of paper. "The stub of the alliance is redeemable upon arrival."
Nicholas really had nothing to say. The Hongshang Alliance does open a gold coin deposit and withdrawal business, but very few people use it. Most people will find it extremely inconvenient, not to mention that they have to pay a proportional fee.
The two of them walked to a shop in the alliance. Lu Yuan exchanged more than a thousand gold coins and put a big bag of gold coins into his backpack, which made Nicholas feel like fifty cats scratching his head. Generally uncomfortable. However, Nicholas was very principled. Not only did he not make any decisions, he also slapped away the hands of several thieves along the way.
Arriving at the alley on the street, Nicholas opened a door without knowing it, and after walking in the narrow and dark corridor for a while. Nicholas pushed up a room. When Lu Yuan walked in, he saw a woman wearing black leather armor, lying lazily on a chair, sharpening her nails with a knife. The plump thighs were stretched tightly on the table, swaying and swaying, and instantly caught Lu Yuan's eyes.
"I am Widowmaker. As long as you have money, I will definitely have what you want. Remember, I never pay on credit."
After saying that, she seemed to press something, and another room opened next to her. Widowmaker continued to carve on her nails, paying no attention to either of them.
"Is this a thieves guild?" Lu Yuan asked with distrust on his face, "You're not going to set up a trap to trick me, are you?!"
"How is that possible?" Nicholas looked depressed, "We are taking the back door leading to Boss Lily. There are too many secrets at the front door, so I can't let you see it."
"Then let me take a look first." Lu Yuan walked into the room noncommittally.
Within a moment, he came out with a bit of mockery on his lips. People who were not familiar with him thought he was smiling. Only those who were familiar with him knew that his mean temper was back again.
"How's it going? Is there anything you want?" Nicholas asked.
"Good things! I want them all!"
"Then you can't afford it. If you only choose one or two things, I can still make the decision for you to buy them! But if you want to buy more, even if you have money, you can't do it. I don't have that much pride!"
"No? It seems that the dye is very valuable!" Lu Yuan said pretending to be confused, and then he sneered a few times, "If you don't wipe off the dye, I'll cover it all for one copper coin! What do you think?"
Widowmaker fell from the chair with a thud, dropping the knife to the side.
Nicholas was even more speechless and didn't know what to say. Lu Yuan just sneered and didn't say anything. If it had been a day ago, he would have probably been fooled, as most of the things there were made to look real. But now he estimates it at level 8, and the forging process is as high as level 14. Although he cannot identify the specific content, the material and craftsmanship of the equipment are still clear at a glance! These can no longer fool his eyes.
Widowmaker turned over and stood up, stepped forward and kicked Nicholas, "Shit! Is this the fat sheep you're leading!? I've lost all my face by you!"
"This", Nicholas didn't care that Lu Yuan was right next to him, and replied while dodging Widowmaker's punches and kicks, "I didn't know that little brother Lu Yuan was so smart. Besides, he's not a fat sheep of a good level." Do you dare to get it from you?"
Lu Yuan watched coldly for a long time and said impatiently, "Come on, it can't hit the vital point! Stop acting and show me the real thing."
The two people separated awkwardly.
Widowmaker cleared her throat and said, "Reintroduction, this is my brother Nicholas, and I am Widowmaker."
"I'm Lu Yuan."
Widowmaker led the two of them to push open another secret door, go up and down the stairs several times in the dark, then push the door open and enter a small room. The main door of the room is locked, and there are several rows of shelves and wooden barrels inside.
"Everything is here, tell me the price." Widowmaker pointed, then grabbed Nicholas's ear, opened a secret door from there, and went out.
Lu Yuan clicked his tongue and marveled. This place is indeed a thieves guild. There is no main entrance and there are secret doors everywhere. He doesn't know if the structure of this house is stable. What if there is an earthquake?
He looked along the shelves, and his eyes were opened this time. There are a lot of things that are cheap, but there are also a lot of good things. Such as enchanted leather armor, daggers, crossbows, and daggers, these are all commonly used by thieves, and they are all high-quality products here. In addition, there are not many witchcraft grocery stores, such as Demon-Breaking Arrows, and you can’t even find them on the market, but they are actually available here.
As for potions, forget about them, most of them can be prepared by him, and some of them are stuff that came out of his hands. He picked a bottle of the "King of Thieves" potion unique to the Thieves Guild. Drinking this potion will make people extremely flexible and sharp. It is specially used to crack complex traps and locks. This potion can only be used by the Thieves Guild. turn up.
He carefully searched all the barrels in a row, whether they contained weapons or projectiles. It wasn't until he occasionally looked up that he found a book under a barrel! Let me go, why are you here? !
I went up and took it out with a lot of effort, dusted it off and saw that it was indeed the "Quick Action Manual".
This book contains some training methods for thieves. It is a commonly used book for thieves. However, as the war became more and more cruel, the Thieves Guild and others also improved their training methods, making them more formal and more suitable for the needs of fighting, so these books were eliminated.
But what I don't know is that there is a little secret hidden in some books published in the prosperous years. That is, among those thousands of printed volumes, there is a truly magical book hidden. This book, when activated with the correct secret words, will truly increase a person's basic attributes!
Seeing Widowmaker coming out, Nicholas Tong pulled his head and followed behind.
Lu Yuanyang raised the book in his hand, "I'll buy this!"
After speaking, he handed over the potion and book. Widowmaker casually put the potion aside, flipped through the book carefully twice, and after finding nothing, said, "The potion is 1,500 gold, and the book is... our guild's secret training method, 3,500 gold!"
"A total of 5,000 gold? Haha." Lu Yuan smiled and patted Nicholas on the shoulder, "You're good at math, your calculations are pretty accurate."
Then he said with a straight face, "Come on, I'm too lazy to bargain. To tell you the truth, I bought this potion just to figure out the ingredients. If I can prepare it, selling it to you can be considered a way to make money, and you will get extra money. This is two It’s a matter of getting it. If the potion costs more than 800 gold, you can keep it for yourself to become moldy. As for the book? 1 gold! This is the highest price!”
This is also the first time for Widowmaker to deal with someone like Lu Yuan. Sometimes he is a person, sometimes he is a dog, and he falls out at every turn. If you want to talk about falling out, this person is also a purchasing channel, and the profit can be more than 5,000 gold coins! What's more, this person only came with a thousand gold coins. Even if he got the stub of the Merchant Alliance, he wouldn't be able to take it out unless he himself.
He had no choice but to turn his head and look at Nicholas. Nicholas thought to himself, "Why are you looking at me?" I was played like a dog by him all day long, so I could only nod helplessly.
Widowmaker slapped the table, "I see you don't have any weapons to protect yourself! If you pick up an ordinary weapon, I'll give you a thousand!"
Lu Yuan didn't bargain anymore, he took out the bag of gold coins, took out 20 coins and threw the whole bag on the table. Putting the potion and book properly in the bag, he turned around and took out a rapier from the shelf, waved it casually and said, "That's it."
Widowmaker checked again and again, and found out that it was indeed an ordinary weapon, so she just threw it to him and asked Nicholas to take him away.
Although I had made several hundred gold coins, I felt as if I was carrying a stone and was unhappy, so I hurriedly chased people away.
After Lu Yuan returned, he threw away his things and went straight to the laboratory. After walking around the apprentice laboratory for a long time, those people saw that he was getting promoted, and of course they wanted to curry favor with him. He also successfully obtained the developing potion and analysis lens, and worked hard for most of the night before he was able to identify the book.

Lu Yuan said softly to the book, "Act quickly, first come, first served!"
The book turned into a ray of light, flying up and merging into his body.
Lu Yuan felt warm all over his body, and his muscles were contracting and stretching slightly, as if countless small hands were massaging his body. It was so comfortable that he could only shout.
"Wow! I'm ascending to immortality!"
