Zhe Xianren was on the verge of tears; he had lost everything!

"Did he succeed?"

"He succeeded. It's said that the thief had eight arms, and he subdued and took it away."

"Damn, he's that fierce?"

The group of players with Zhe Xianren were all shocked.

Originally, they thought that since that NPC was so sleazy, it would be impossible to catch him…

Yet when Shadow arrived, he actually surrendered without a fight?

"That's fine, too."

Zhe Xianren revealed a faint smile: "I heard that Shadow's intervention this time was because the Shudao Mountain Guild paid a certain price… In that case, we really should thank them."

A yellow-toothed youth beside him laughed: "Right, right. How about we discuss it with them and give them one of the Golden-level BOSSes summoned by the Golden Magic Talisman?"

A middle-aged fat mage nearby chuckled: "I'm afraid they wouldn't even accept it. Hilarious, they actually wanted to buy our Golden Magic Talisman at a low price. They're dreaming."

Golden Magic Talisman.

This was a special Gold-grade item that could be carried while killing monsters to convert experience points into energy. It could accumulate a full charge of energy once per day, and by consuming all the energy, it could summon a Golden-level BOSS.

To Qin Feng, this thing was useless.

Because this thing consumed quite a bit of experience, and carrying it himself would hinder his development too much.

If he let others carry it to farm bosses, the summoned BOSS level would be very low, so it was completely unnecessary.

For Qin Feng, a Golden-level BOSS was nothing; he did not need to go out of his way to find one at all!

But this thing, for any guild at the current stage, was very useful.

And originally… this thing should have been a reward from a ruin exploration for the Shudao Mountain Guild.

As it turned out, while the Shudao Mountain Guild was fighting the final BOSS in that ruin, Zhe Xianren led his people to take the opportunity to loot several rooms behind the BOSS, obtaining the 'Golden Magic Talisman' from them!

It was not that the people from Shudao Mountain did not see it.

But at the time, they were bogged down by the BOSS and could not stop them at all, so they could only watch helplessly as the loot was swiped away…

So, how could they possibly swallow this insult?

Of course, both guilds were quite strong, so to avoid involving innocent bystanders, the Shudao Mountain Guild did not launch a large-scale guild war, but instead planned to take some measures to negotiate first.

They even had the Government mediate, wanting to pay some Lifespan to buy back the 'Golden Magic Talisman'.

Although the price was not high, Zhe Xianren and his group would still be making a profit.

Unfortunately… Zhe Xianren and his group did not give them any face at all!

Zhe Xianren even frivolously said: "We obtained this treasure with our own skills; how could you possibly want to buy it at a low price? How about this, Bamboo, you come to our Hideout alone and have a meal with me, and I might consider it."

This was clearly flirting with 'I Don't Eat Bamboo'.

Just when the Shudao Mountain Guild was considering other solutions, Qin Feng happened to arrive!

The Thieving Saint Talisman was a very good solution!

It would not trigger a large-scale battle, and they could take back what originally belonged to them!

Although it was a bit expensive, as long as they succeeded, the Shudao Mountain Guild would still come out ahead in the end. Most importantly, they could vent their anger!

And at this moment. After Qin Feng helped take the Thief Saint away. Zhe Xianren and his guild members were all happy.

"That little wench's expression must be terrible right now, right?"

"For sure, they paid a price to get that NPC away, but it actually ended up helping us, haha!"

"From now on, brothers, feel free to come here to level up; no need to worry about being robbed!"

"That little wench is really a good person!"

Zhe Xianren listened to everyone chatting, a faint smile on his face: "It just so happens that we found a Golden-level BOSS in the wild earlier that we haven't fought yet. I was afraid the loot would be stolen after we finished it, but now we can go for it… Let's head back to the Hideout to organize our backpacks first, then bring the brothers out for a good farming session!"

Their group left the Wandering Spirit Dungeon and returned to one of their Gold-grade Hideouts.

This Hideout was on a platform halfway up a mountain, where a Taoist temple was built.

Zhe Xianren was riding a yellow 'Land-running Bird' mount. Although he was only a Common Swordsman class, his Platinum-grade 'Combo' Talent allowed his damage output to exceed that of average players by quite a lot.

In his guild, he was the star, always surrounded by quite a few female players.

After all… he was the strongest in the guild and the owner of the Hideout. Every time they fought a BOSS, his damage output was more than 50% higher than everyone else's!

However, suddenly. Just as he was riding his Land-running Bird mount, intending to lead his people back to the Wandering Spirit Dungeon.

Ding!

—— [Player 'Indian Old Dove (Shudao Mountain)' has used 'Thieving Saint Talisman' on you!]

[You have lost your 'mount bell (Yellow Land-running Bird)'!]

???

The Land-running Bird mount under Zhe Xianren's feet suddenly disappeared, and he fell to the ground on his butt, looking completely bewildered.

"Huh?"

"What's going on?"

"What the hell is a Thieving Saint Talisman?"

He hurriedly opened his backpack to check, only to find that his mount bell was indeed gone!

He was just about to open his backpack to use the Anti-Stealth item 'Revealing Dust'.

However… Ding! [Player 'A Airport Mom Rabbit Head (Shudao Mountain)' has used 'Thieving Saint Talisman' on you!] [You have lost your 'Revealing Dust'!]

Ding! [Player 'Don't Waste It, Let Me Have It While It's Hot (Shudao Mountain)' has used 'Thieving Saint Talisman' on you!] [You have lost your 'Elemental Enhancement Potion'!]

Ding! [Player 'I Have Depression, You Guys Go First (Shudao Mountain)' has used 'Thieving Saint Talisman' on you!] [You have lost your 'Half-Mountain Taoist Temple · Hideout Key'!] …

Almost simultaneously, the 'ding ding ding' sounds in Zhe Xianren's mind were endless.

And the items and props in his storage backpack vanished instantly with lightning speed!

Zhe Xianren broke out in a cold sweat all over.

He shouted in a panic: "Anti-Stealth, activate Anti-Stealth skills quickly!"

His subordinates beside him saw his Land-running Bird mount suddenly disappear and thought he was playing with something new.

Hearing him shout like that, they realized something seemed wrong?

Swoosh! A female player following behind him raised her hand and released a light orb skill. Under the illumination of that light orb, the figures of several players around them appeared from their Stealth state…

A total of six or seven Assassin players from the Shudao Mountain Guild were all stealthily surrounding Zhe Xianren!

Because this guy had just come out of the Hideout, it was the moment he was most relaxed, so they chose to act at this time.

There was another reason… Zhe Xianren had just brought his people back to the Hideout, so he must have left all the unimportant items in the Hideout, meaning he definitely had very few things on him!

And the 'Golden Magic Talisman', because it needed to absorb experience to summon a Golden-level BOSS, must have been carried on his person.

Originally… the Shudao Mountain Guild only wanted to get the Golden Magic Talisman back.

As it turned out, they never expected to have such an unexpected harvest!

"mount bell!"

"The Golden Magic Talisman is in hand too!"

"Haha, follow me quickly, I've got the key to this Hideout! Follow me into the Hideout directly!"

Before Zhe Xianren and his group could react, the Assassin players from Shudao Mountain swarmed into the Hideout behind them!

Among them were the six or seven Assassins who had been revealed, as well as over ten others with higher Stealth Levels who hadn't been revealed. One by one, they activated skills like Sprint and Flash, slipping into the Hideout in a flash!

Immediately after… all the one hundred or so players in this 'Half-Mountain Taoist Temple' Hideout were forcibly kicked out and teleported outside the temple!

???

Zhe Xianren and his guild subordinates all looked at each other, completely bewildered.

And as Zhe Xianren watched this scene, his brain suddenly clicked—he had lost everything?!

Thieving Saint Talisman? What the hell is that thing?!
