Chapter 37 - Chapter 36: Stealing Skills

"That Grand Swordsman experience capsule just now, it costs 500 million Beli?"

Nami converted the price, her eyes full of desire, but she was powerless.

Over the years, she had been a very wealthy thief, even though she had to secretly support the villagers' ransom every month, she could still accumulate 80 million Beli.

For an ordinary person, their monthly salary would be at most 100,000 Beli.

"Can it be cheaper?"

Nami asked pitifully.

Fang Yi smiled and shook his head, "There are no discount events for now. There might be discounts during game events."

"Besides, items in the Store require purchase authorization. With your initial player level, you can't buy expensive goods at all."

"Scam artist!"

Nami muttered secretly, then gritted her teeth and said, "Hunting Pollution Monsters will allow me to level up, right?"

Fang Yi nodded, "That's right, and they can drop reward points and valuable equipment. Honestly, the money you earn by investing your energy in the Reincarnation Game will definitely be more than what you earn as a thief."

Hearing this, Nami was very tempted.

Every time she went to sea, she painstakingly infiltrated pirate ships, doing dirty and tiring work, constantly on edge, and the treasures she stole were only a few hundred thousand Beli.

Ordinary pirates were just common people who went to sea relying on their strength and fierce personalities. They weren't very capable, at most plundering small villages, and didn't have much money at all.

"Oh no!"

Nami exclaimed, jumping up and rushing into the Soul-Snatching Forest.

She hadn't realized it before, but those monsters were all golden, and one of them could be exchanged for 50,000 Beli.

However,

Nami soon discovered that hunting monsters was not as easy as she imagined.

In the deep, lush forest, the Drowned Ghost, bloated and covered in death qi, had pale, festering skin, like a swollen, solid steamed bun.

When pirates and guards hacked at it with their weapons, it was like cutting into a thick, soft cushion.

It was like a layer of armor; they couldn't harm the Drowned Ghost at all.

By the time they wanted to pull out their weapons, the Drowned Ghost had already sprayed corrosive acid, burning the attackers, making them roll on the ground.

To succeed in hunting, at least two people needed to work together.

"Olut Luk?"

Nami suddenly noticed the middle-aged noble mixed in with the guard team.

Earlier on the merchant ship, he had been clumsy and almost dragged into the sea by a pirate's hook-claw. Now, the pot-bellied man was actually able to fight the Drowned Ghost to a standstill.

Was it because of that weapon?

Nami had sharp eyes and immediately spotted the scimitar in the middle-aged noble's hand.

Taking advantage of the chaos during the Drowned Ghost hunt, she acted decisively, picked up a rock, knocked out an inconspicuous guard, and put on the guard's uniform.

Olut Luk, unaware, killed the Drowned Ghost, which was covered in knife marks, with the help of the guards.

Just then,

Nami quickly made a move to snatch the scimitar. When her hand touched the hilt, text popped up in front of her eyes.

[You have not mastered the life skill [Theft], you cannot snatch player equipment.]

Olut Luk was startled and quickly gripped his scimitar tighter.

But lacking combat experience, he was immediately grabbed by the neck by Nami, who was close to him, making the guards afraid to act.

"Give me the scimitar, or I'll kill you!"

Nami said this with a fierce expression, but she was very nervous inside.

She had never killed anyone.

Although she knew that death in the Reincarnation Game could be revived by consuming reward points and wasn't true death, she still felt some resistance.

However, Olut Luk was clearly intimidated by Nami's feigned posture and quickly waved his hand, dismissing the guards who were about to rush forward.

"Don't kill me, I'll give it to you."

Olut Luk was about to hand over the scimitar, but then his expression suddenly turned ruthless, and he swung the knife behind him.

This scimitar was equipment he bought from the game Store.

A full two hundred reward points.

Revival only cost a mere million Beli; he could definitely calculate this account clearly.

Actively bumping into the sharp broken stone in Nami's hand, Olut Luk's entire body turned into a faint white glow, and he revived.

Nami had already escaped with her agile movements.

"Do I have to master the Theft skill to snatch player equipment?"

Nami wasn't discouraged; instead, her eyes lit up.

She pulled out all her savings, a full eighty million Beli, and converted it into eight hundred reward points.

[Successfully purchased [Elementary Theft Scroll]. This scroll allows you to master the elementary life skill: Theft.]

"As expected of Nami."

Fang Yi was dumbfounded and really wanted to applaud her.

Eight hundred reward points were enough to buy a set of low-quality equipment in the game Store, or purchase a white-grade skill.

Although she would still need to flee when facing a white-clothed ghost, with the equipment's attribute bonuses, she could completely hunt Drowned Ghosts alone.

But the famous lady thief of the East Blue actually gave up hunting Drowned Ghosts and aimed her sights at players.

"Life skills all require long-term cultivation. The success rate of elementary Theft is very low, and you could lose everything."

Fang Yi watched Nami, who used her old trick to sneak into Olut Luk's guard team.

She stayed close to the middle-aged noble, diligently helping the guard team hunt five Drowned Ghosts, then quickly ran away.

Olut Luk didn't even react. When he realized something was missing, he angrily hacked his scimitar into a tree trunk.

In Nami's record, it was like this:

[You initiated Theft on a player, failed.]

[You initiated Theft on a player, failed.]

[You initiated Theft on a player… ]

[You initiated Theft on a player, succeeded. You obtained Drowned Ghost Leather Armor (White) * 1]

Nami was overjoyed and put the spoils into her equipment slot.

Instantly,

She seemed to feel her strength grow stronger.

This Drowned Ghost Leather Armor, Olut Luk spent three hundred reward points to buy it, its value was even higher than the scimitar.

She didn't expect it would be stolen.

Behind the screen,

Fang Yi was also dumbfounded, pouting, "Elementary Theft, if it fails, it will alert the player. Nami released it more than ten times and managed to perfectly avoid detection. Should I say her thieving skills are superb?"

Life skills were very flexible.

There were two release modes: one was fully automatic release, limited by skill level.

The other was free release, requiring players to grasp the timing themselves. For example, after a real-life blacksmith masters the forging skill, when hammering and forging, with the assistance of techniques and methods, the success rate of finished products will be higher than that of ordinary players.

Although he knew Nami had thieving skills and could steal everyone's wallets in the blink of an eye when saying goodbye to the Cocoyasi Village villagers, he didn't expect her to be this strong.

The subsequent trial was completely Nami's theft show.

Low success rate for Elementary Theft?

No problem,

Nami infiltrated the Black Cat Pirates, skillfully lowered the pirates' guard, and then continuously cast Theft on the two pirate cats who looked the wealthiest.

[You initiated Theft on a player, succeeded. You obtained Drowned Ghost Leather Boots * 1]

[You initiated Theft on a player, succeeded. You obtained Wet Foot Wraps * 2]

[You initiated Theft on a player, succeeded. You obtained Drowned Ghost Leather Pants * 1]

By the time the trial ended,

Nami, who had killed two Drowned Ghosts, actually managed to gather the [Drowned Ghost] three-piece set effect, and she also had a short knife from some unlucky fellow in her hand.
