"Ahhhh!!!" Alice screamed.
"Fine, I agree, isn't that enough for you?!"
Finally, Alice let her tears fall.
On her flawless face, clear and translucent teardrops fell like broken beads, one after another.
Alexander knew he couldn't take it too far.
He let go of her and stood up.
He wasn't afraid of Alice reneging on her promise.
In his memory, Alice, an NPC like her, belonged to the lawful good faction.
Lawful good beings would not go back on their word.
"But you have to answer one question for me!"
As he got up, Alice sat up, rubbing her eyes while speaking.
"What's the question?" Alexander looked over.
"How did you know that I could be captured?"
Alice lowered her hands and opened her pair of blue eyes wide, her eyes glowing.
Her intense gaze seemed to be sizing up the man before her—Alexander.
Even though it was the end of the 20th century, no seasoned online game player would think of capturing an NPC.
Especially this particular NPC, who was the angel responsible for guiding players through their reincarnations.
It wasn't a matter of whether it could be done, but rather a technical feat.
Why would any new player attempt to capture an NPC of at least level 60?
Obviously, even if the players had the desire and courage, they lacked the ability.
But this Alexander... he was relentless.
Upon hearing the question, Alexander smiled at Alice.
He slightly raised his head, gazing at the sky with a melancholy look at a 30-degree angle.
His eyes gradually became mature, vicissitudinous, and steady...
"It's been ten years, ten years..."
The voice echoed again and again within the hall...
That's right, 99% of the audience could guess.
Alexander was the shameless reborn player with a golden finger cheat.
He had been reborn, returning to ten years ago.
Coincidentally, it was when "Legendary World" was launched.
In his previous life, he was an ordinary player in "Legendary World," with the thief profession.
Being a commoner, Alexander was destined from the beginning to be a mere sidekick for more advanced players.
In the game "Legendary World," every player would randomly receive a talent at the beginning of the game. Talents were divided into seven levels: A, B, C, D, E, F, and G.
There were no S-level talents.
Talents would influence the player's gameplay, and many players would choose their professions based on their talents.
Alexander's talent was "Theft."
In his previous life, this skill was ranked at G-level, with a 0.01% probability of stealing a random item from a player.
Each successful theft would increase proficiency. Once the proficiency was maxed out, there would be a 0.01% chance of increasing the talent level with each theft.
Alexander saw the potential of this talent.
So he spent ten years, stealing from everyone in the beginner's village, from the village chief to the old hens at the entrance.
After ten years, he emerged from the village.
He became the only player in the entire "Legendary World" who had spent 10 years in the beginner's village without anyone knowing what he was doing all day.
He once dominated various forums' leaderboards and was titled "Village Chief of the Beginner's Village."
No one knew that Alexander's "Theft" talent had been upgraded from a G-level talent to an SSS-level talent!
The one-in-ten-thousand success rate had turned into a 100% success rate!
The target of theft could be any item!
Whether it was an NPC, a monster, or any other peculiar object, he could steal something from it!
The day Alexander left the village, the game exploded.
Yes, it exploded.
In Alexander's mind, horrifying apocalyptic images gradually emerged.
These images were vivid and unforgettable.
When luxurious cars in the streets were destroyed by fierce dragons.
As skeletons, undead, ghouls, and bone dragons swept across human cities.
When the human alliance fought with all their might, but could only watch helplessly as the demon army swarmed in, leaving devastation and broken families in their wake...
It was then that Alexander realized.
This was not just a game!
It was reality!
A war concerning the survival of humanity!
Before his death, Alexander saw the youngest daughter of the God King, the little princess of the gods.
That is, the little angel who always guarded the temple and welcomed new players, Alice!
She hid in a corner, shivering with fear, her tears falling like pearls!
At that moment, Alexander knew, it was too late!
Everything was too late!
In this life, Alexander was determined not to be a useless bystander.
I will emerge from seclusion!
I will conquer the entire universe!
Make all enemies and evil tremble before me!
As soon as Alexander was reborn, he discovered that he had retained his in-game talent.
His body was gone.
But the talent remained!
SSS-level!
The art of theft!
So now, Alexander had a bold idea.
Since she was the daughter of the God King...
Emmm... I won't say more.
"What are you talking about, ten years?" Alice asked, looking puzzled.
"Are you trying to seduce me, thinking I'm just a naive little girl, and deliberately trying to impress me?"
"You're mistaken. Alice has matured and won't be smitten by you!"
"Hmph~~~"
Alice said, amused by her own words.
Alexander couldn't be bothered to say more.
He walked over and grabbed Alice's wings.
His actions were like catching an old laying hen.
"What are you doing? Put me down! I warn you, your behavior is very reckless. This is an insult to the gods, and you will be hunted down by the entire godly race!"
Alice screamed and struggled.
"Hurry up, game settings! I'm still very busy!" Alexander said.
"What difference does it make if you start a minute earlier or a minute later with your level of skill?!"
"My skill level? What skill level?"
Alexander was puzzled.
"See for yourself!"
Alice waved her little hand, and a character attribute panel appeared in front of Alexander.

This...
Looking at his own attribute description, Alexander was stunned!
Just like in the original "Legendary World," the system had randomly assigned him a set of attributes and a talent as soon as he entered the game.
At the same time, he also had a hidden talent, which was the "SSS" level stealing technique, but this talent was only visible to him.
So, in Alice's eyes, he was just a worthless person with only a G-level talent.
Like hundreds of millions of other players, he was utterly ordinary and had nothing special.
Following him would undoubtedly lead to a dead-end.
Moreover, Alexander's talent was an extremely challenging "Foolish" talent, with the difficulty of leveling up increased by 100 times!
The early game was all about competing for levels, and if one couldn't level up, they were as good as useless!
But when Alexander's gaze reached the latter part of the talent description,His eyes were filled with nothing but shock and amazement!
100 times the free attribute points!
"Are you sure...this is a G-level talent?" Alexander asked, his heart filled with astonishment.
