Chapter 405: Thief

Greyrit, a thief detained in jail, will follow the player back to the Fire Festival after helping him in the original game, and will go out alone to help the player steal some props and equipment in the subsequent process.
But Li Nuo's reason for approaching him was not to expect him to help steal things.
A thief, or an undead NPC that hasn't turned into a living corpse, perfectly satisfies two interesting values ​​that can be utilized.
That is, captive and study.
If you want to open the prison cage, you need to go forward first, get the key and then turn back.
But Li Nuo didn't need to do this. He only used a piece of iron wire and [the thief] to pry open the door lock.
Greyrit sat slumped on the ground, looked up at the person who had opened the cage, and said in a rather relaxed tone: "...Oh, you don't seem to be the guard? It seems to be a foreigner, and it is in the clock. Only after the ringing... Are you the fireless ash? Interesting. If you really are, I want to ask you one thing. There is a dirty town under this high wall, which is not owned by the kings. Hometown, that existed a long time ago... Immortal Town. There should be an old woman named Loretta in the town..."
"That old woman is dead." Li Nuo bluntly said the answer that Greyrit didn't want to know.
Greyrit was stunned for a second, then buried his head and shook it gently, "Heh... don't be kidding, I didn't know that Yu Hui was so casual."
"If you don't believe me, just go to the undead settlement with us to take a look." Li Nuo pointed to the open prison, "The door is open, no one can stop you from going out. If Loretta is not dead, I will let you pay any price. It's all, if she dies..."
"Do you want me to suffer any pain?" Greyrit asked.
"No." Li Nuo smiled, "You taught me to steal things."
Greyrit looked at him and speculated: "Are you sure? I can tell that you are also a thief, why do I need to teach you again?"
"I want to be the king of thieves." Li Nuo said nonsense.
"Heh...interesting, in that case, I would like to see with you...no, it should be said that with the remaining ashes, maybe I can successfully return to the immortal settlement." Greer got up slowly, his back Some rickets, presumably because of occupational diseases that thieves have done for a long time.
"Let's go, I will follow you."
[Side task has been triggered]
[Loretta, the love of the undead]
[Task time: 20 minutes]
[Experience: 2000]
[Reward: Blue Tearstone Ring, Random, Gift of Grayrit]
...
Exploring the area of ​​the high wall of Losric, Li Nuo valued Greerit the most. This is also the reason why he, who knows the route, clearly can parkour, but still has to take risks to wander among the corpses.
[Marrow Ash] cannot advance [Rogue] skills, but needs to meet certain conditions to improve.
The so-called specific conditions, if you think about it with a pig's brain, it is impossible to steal something in a tuxedo suit and then evolve naturally. The high probability situation should be to find an NPC who masters the stealing technique in the script and do a second further study.
For example, look for pickpockets better than Tom in the world of The Witcher, or go to other worlds to find well-known thieves to learn stealing techniques.
Although Greyrit is not a well-known thief, he is the only person in "Dark Souls 3" who steals by technology.
This time, when Greyret got on the ship, Li Nuo and Chabai didn't have to follow the original route.
Li Nuo took the lead, and the three of them ran on the roof, staggered and uneven roofs were flat under their feet.
Greyrit's speed surpassed the imagination of the two of them. He quickly shook off Li Nuo a full tens of meters away, and Li Nuo had to stop him.
But Greyrit only said indifferently: "I will use my own method to go to the immortal settlement, you are too slow."
The thief left so fast that he disappeared in a few blinks.
"Hurry up and reincarnate..."
Li Nuo let out a rant, taking the opportunity to stop and observe below.
They are located at a high point near the high wall of Losric, and looking down, you can see the general texture of the entire area and the wandering corpses.
Two things can basically be determined. The number of enemies is much more than that in the game. Although it has been abandoned for a long time, the population has not decreased. It was originally a city with thousands of residents, and now it has basically become a wandering zombie. In addition, the random mod changed some powerful elite monsters and bosses. For example, he saw with his eyes that an elite monster named Winged Knight turned into a tall and burly knight, looking indestructible and very powerful.
This guy comes from "Dark Souls 1" and is called the Berinek Knight.
With a bunch of dogs behind him, Li Nuo didn't dare to step forward to provoke the Burinick Knight.
In short, the basic situation of the entire region is now understood, and it can even be said that he has almost thoroughly seen the urinary nature of the word "random" in this script.
The number of enemy groups is extremely large, which is different from the original game, but the enemy's powerful attack power has not weakened, and a single blow can almost kill him.
Random enemies have basically become stronger than before, and there are exceptions.
Killing the enemy will not drop the item, which belongs to the "endless corridor" mechanism.
The location of the treasure chests has changed. Although most of them are still in place, the things in the treasure chests have changed and have been branded with "random". Some of the treasure chestless items that fell on the ground in the original game are now all gone.
The difficulty of exploration is increased, the fault tolerance rate is reduced, and it will be beaten at any time. This is the change of this script from the original game.
When all this was figured out, Li Nuo took Chabai and rushed. Their goal was the boss in the area, and it was also the premise of reaching the undead settlement.
Leaping down the staggered floors of the house, they knelt down on the low building, staring at the rectangular courtyard below.
The problem now is to walk left to right. You can get a small flag on the left to open the gate to the undead settlement, and on the right you will face the first BOSS in this area. Defeat him to be eligible to open the gate.
"left."
Li Nuo let Chabai cover the top, and then used the catapult hook claws to turn back and land, flashing among the blades of a group of Losric knights, rushing to the front of a majestic building on the left, when the knights had already killed. , Chabai summoned thunder and lightning from above to stop their attacking pace and guide the hatred on him.
Taking advantage of this moment, Li Nuo put his hands on the door, gritted his teeth and pushed open the thick wooden door with the strength of milking, and he got in through it. This is a huge hall, delicate and cumbersome European style. The pattern is engraved on the broad column head. There is no direct staircase on the upper second-floor guardrail. Right in front, an old woman sits on a simple European-style seat.
She was the chief priest Emma, ​​who gave the player the woman who opened the key to the undead settlement.
But at this time, her head was gone.
The key, the small ring flag, was stuck in her neck instead of her head.
Li Nuo took a deep breath and sniffed the smell here. Except for the smell of blood, there was nothing unusual. He walked over cautiously.
Pulling the small ring flag from Emma's neck, Li Nuo's eyes instantly widened when he saw the back of the chess piece.
The red blood read on the back of the flag, "Critical."
