Wanderer

"Hahaha!!!"

Godwin looked at the blood rising from the nearby house and revealed a sinister smile, pounding the table hard, tears streaming from laughter.

"A bunch of fools, thinking they could get away with it, hahaha!"

"The fanatics from the Temple of Justice will never spare you!"

Turning the dagger in his hand, Godwin's figure drenched in blood vanished into the shadows, disappearing into the deserted bar, with only faint whispers echoing:

"Everyone, just wait for me!"

"I will make you pay dearly!"

Not long after, a blurry figure appeared at the doorway, cautiously observing before slowly slipping in.

"... Boss? They agreed!"

"They even gave us scrolls of spells to place in the designated locations!"

"..."

"... Have they left?"

Turner's figure emerged, looking at the once lively guild that was no more, not feeling much sadness.

Wanderers generally have a diluted sense of good and evil, and this place didn't leave a good impression on him either!

The Thieves' Guild would adopt or even abduct orphans for training, these kids raised from a young age as pickpockets, with a mortality rate exceeding seventy percent!

Only half of the remaining would become professionals, while the other half would continue as pickpockets or join the underworld.

"It's good that this place is gone..."

"I wonder if I can infiltrate that cult of pain?"

"It's much better than this unlucky place that doesn't believe in the Shadow Lord."

"Maybe I can still gain some benefits, hehe..."

The concept of evil gods is relative, and deities from the evil alignment are generally referred to as evil gods.

Two antagonistic churches would also refer to each other as followers of evil gods, and a church that proselytizes in a kingdom ruled by another deity would be labeled as a cult of evil gods.

The situation with the Church of the Goddess of Pain in Lunt is quite peculiar...

Deities of the evil alignment, divine conflicts, unauthorized proselytizing—it's all happening!

Coincidentally, it involves all three!

Coupled with Princess Ellena's status, her actions this time were not hindered by the church.

"Otherwise, a leader of a knight order proposing such a large-scale operation would be rejected without a doubt."

"But first, we have to survive this crisis!"

Feeling the looming danger, Turner reached into his pocket and pulled out a neatly sewn small cloth bag.

He poured out an ancient-looking gold coin from inside, kissed it, and then placed it back.

"My lucky coin, may it continue to bring me luck."

After saying that, he disappeared into the shadows, heading towards the most intense battlefield.

...

"Why? Why?"

As the leader of the second assassin guild in Lunt's underground forces, Bruno had clashed with Godwin no less than ten times.

But watching Godwin now rampage in the field, taking a life with every appearance, he found it unbelievable.

"You've been hiding your strength all along!? Why!?"

Hearing Bruno's roar, Godwin raised an eyebrow, finding it all very bewildering.

"I never noticed before; this Bruno's brain isn't working too well..."

"Who in the grey area wouldn't keep a way out for themselves? What's he up to?"

Dodging another noble guard pouncing at him, Godwin spat on the ground.

"Tsk, why are these guards so desperate?"

The current situation was very different from what he had imagined, very different!

He thought that after killing a few leaders, these wine-bellied fools who only pursued a few rogues on ordinary days would definitely scatter in disarray.

Then, he could seize the opportunity to escape amidst the chaos!

But who knew! These people seemed to have gone mad, slashing at anyone they saw!

Whenever they saw blood, they'd strike, even at their own people; they were frenzied!

"Tsk, what did the Temple of Justice do? Why haven't we seen any of their people?"

"Are you looking for me, Leader, sir?"

"What!?"

Startled by the sudden voice from behind, Godwin lunged forward, tossing two daggers backward while rolling.

Ding! Ding!

"Why run?"

"Ellena easily caught the two daggers with her gauntlet, tossed them aside, and didn't give him a direct look. Instead, she looked in a certain direction.

"I hope you can give me a little warm-up."

"Before the main course, don't disappoint me too much."

Godwin crouched down, pulled out a new dagger, and said with a furious smile, "I will make you see true hell!!!"

Turning her gaze back, Ellena assessed him briefly and shook her head, sighing:

"It's impossible..."

"Because you're weak!"

Though his forehead veins bulged with anger, Godwin didn't charge directly; instead, he began to circle around Ellena.

"I'm going to kill you!!!"

"Sigh... just passing the time."

...

"Miss Ellena, those aren't lines a righteous character would say."

Hearing that completely offbeat villainous remark, even Robert felt a bit sorry for the thief leader...

First, he was threatened with his own tricks, then he was likely to be enraged by a letter...

And finally, when besieged and losing his livelihood, he would still be looked down upon!

"So pitiful! How pathetic!"

Turning around, he pinned down a thief who had sneaked up behind him, swiftly snapped his neck, and Robert said with a face full of pity, "Why despair so much? Thinking of betraying me?"

"When it comes to thief's tricks..."

"I'm much more skilled than you!"

Picking up the two daggers scattered on the ground, Robert also vanished from sight!

"After all, in the past..."

"I was a legendary wanderer!"

Really! Who wasn't a legend in the past!

Who are you looking down on!?

In the original world of 'Godhood,' even if Robert didn't make it to the top five among players, he was still one of the top ten wanderers!

The Abyss of Bato, the Bottomless Abyss, the Shadowy Territories, and even the divine kingdoms that descended into the material world after the fall of the gods...

There were very few places in the entire multiverse where legendary wanderers couldn't tread!

With their diverse professional skills and extraordinary techniques, they could turn a difficult battle into a leisurely stroll in the enemy's backyard!"

"They can even assassinate an unbeatable enemy in their sleep! And their legendary skills are incredibly exaggerated!

[Universal Dexterity·Legendary Skill]: Can use any item.

Yes, any item!

Whether it's a magic scroll that requires spellcasting ability to use or a specific weapon required by a faction, wanderers with this skill can use them!

An assassin wielding a divine artifact, sneaking up on a god, or a thief slipping into a legendary wizard's tower to steal legendary-level scrolls...

Of course, being able to use them doesn't mean they have the necessary ability to do so.

Just imagine a thief wielding a battering ram...

Doesn't it sound thrilling?

If it weren't for the wanderer's lower attack and defense capabilities, many would undoubtedly choose this profession, which would disrupt the game's balance!

To be honest, if it weren't for meeting Sariel from birth and not having a suitable reason to explain where he learned the wanderer's skills from, Robert would never change his profession in his life!

"Thank goodness being a wanderer is a skill-based profession; it doesn't require too much reliance on professional skills."

"A lot of things can be forced with physical fitness..."

If it weren't for these unique hands, uh, techniques...

Why would those noblewomen adore Robert so much...

And then there's today, even if Nadia relaxed her guard in front of Robert this morning, she's a legendary-level spellcaster!

By diverting Nadia's attention with a small trick and quietly putting on the earring.

All of this was done in less than a second!

If all of this weren't backed by solid skills, it would definitely be discovered!

At that point, the outcome might have been different...

"Hmm? Maybe the effect would be even better..."

Robert's eyes lit up as he stood in the shadows, contemplating this philosophical question:

"A clumsy boy who wants to put on earrings but is discovered..."

"She's so gentle, she definitely wouldn't have the heart to smack me away!"

"Hmm..."

"This selling point seems pretty good!"

"Next time! Let's leave this setting for the next victim!"

"Well said! You said it so well!"

"Keep hunting!"

"Whether it's the battlefield or the bed..."

"You should shut up!"

"Charge!"

At this moment, he saw a thief hidden in the corner ahead, preparing to ambush. He stealthily moved towards them.

"Hello, everyone, I'm Bell, and we've just found a wild little thief here!"

"Their flesh is delicious, but they are not easy to catch! A rare delicacy!"

"Now, let me demonstrate to you all how to quickly obtain this kind of ingredient!"

"It's all about technique! Steady, precise, and ruthless!!!"

One hand covered his mouth, and the dagger was ruthlessly thrust into the thief's back heart!

"Backstab!"

Robert released the hand covering the thief's mouth once he stopped trembling, and he looked around at the gruesome scene of brains flying from the relentless fighting. Nobody cared about the life or death of an ordinary thief. Robert sighed.

"Ah, an unnecessary act. Occupational hazard..."

"But thankfully, my skills haven't gotten rusty!"

He quickly twirled the dagger in his hand, performed a few flourishes, then stealthily reentered the battlefield, choosing the next prey.

"Heh heh, no one would have thought..."

"Outwardly noble, talented, charming enough to render minstrels unemployed, the Holy Knight Robert!"

"But secretly, he's a cunning and sly wanderer!!!"

Satisfied with the fantasy for a moment, Robert's thoughts were interrupted by the gleam from his armor. He lowered his head in contemplation.

"Too bad this armor can't be taken off; it would be hard to explain..."

"You, the holy knight, why did you suddenly take off your clothes while fighting?"

"I only take off my clothes in specific battles!"

"Ugh... there's a way, but it's a bit disgusting."

"Just kidding!"

He walked back to the thief's corpse, calmly smearing the blood on the bright silver armor, making it dull and lifeless.

"It's just blood, so clean compared to this muck mixed with horse dung!"

"Heh heh heh, little ones, here I come!"

The dark red armor looked especially sinister under the moonlight. If someone familiar saw it, they wouldn't recognize it as Robert!

"So, how does that saying go..."

"Where there is light, there is shadow, and the world is divided into two poles."

"The hunt has officially begun!"
