Chapter 94 Ancestral Altar
Three days later, the Magic City District—
Xia Yu sat in a position by the window of the cafe, watching a Hollywood movie about bank robbers on his mobile phone. The protagonist in the movie is unparalleled and well-planned. His team is well-trained and each shows his magical powers. He robbed one bank after another like a flowing stream. As a result, he was betrayed when he was doing the last vote and almost failed. However, he was the protagonist after all. He suddenly made a clever plan at the last moment and a huge reversal. He was surrounded by countless policemen and left with the hundreds of millions of wealth he had stolen.
The movie was well made. Although it was an old movie ten years ago, it still made people feel refreshed to be immersed in it.
Having put down his cell phone with unsatisfactory intention, Xia Yu looked at the front of a bank across the street, with seven big words on the huge plaque - Saint Columbia Bank.
This is a British bank, which is constantly too large, but not too small, has a lot of business and a lot of cash flow every day.
He has been observing for three days, commonly known as stepping on a plate.
Considering that he was an amateur, Xia Yu was very cautious about the investigation. He didn't even dare to get close. He just observed from a distance and looked for a possibility of starting a move. It's true that after observing for so many days, he really found it.
At 2:50, an armored truck stopped at the bank entrance on time. Several live ammunition escorts carried the money box and walked out of the bank gate. Five minutes later, they walked out with a few more money boxes and drove away.
Xia Yu looked at the time, five minutes and forty seconds. If he wanted to start, he had to do it within five minutes.
He outlined the details of his actions in his mind, followed the escort through the bank's security door, entered the bank's interior, and put the money directly into his prepared backpack while no one was paying attention - he had tried it at home, and as long as the movement was not too large, it would not break the effect of stealth.
Then he followed the escort out, without knowing it. The best thing is that even if someone checked the surveillance video afterwards, he would never find any clues.
The plan was pretty, but until the escort drove away, Xia Yu didn't even move.
He planned it again in his mind, and finally sighed, probably not being able to do this.
But there is no feasibility, it's just that the risk is a bit big.
If he was still the Rose Thief and Dragon Slaying Hero who was scattered by Azeroth, Xia Yu would definitely have started without hesitation, but now he is just an ordinary person who has mastered a little superpower and cannot afford to take this risk at all.
There is no way, the level is too low.
When Azeroth fought those thieves and assassins, he deeply understood how exaggerated the effect of level suppression was.
The same thief would also sneak up. Those rogues had nowhere to hide in front of him. There were too many things to expose them to the sound of heartbeat, breathing, footsteps, and smell on their bodies.
Now, his stealth ability is probably not as good as that of the genius from the Thieves Guild.
What if someone hears the sound?
What if you are locked in a bank vault?
What if you don’t have time to avoid being hit by someone, and the stealth effect will be broken?
As long as he is not sure, he may be sent to jail. With his ability to bear weight, he can only get dozens or millions at most at a time. It is really unpaid to take such a big risk for this little money.
Xia Yu drank all the coffee in one go, but in the end he gave up the plan temporarily.
Unless you can skillfully use the ability to disappear and sneak silently, don’t even think about it.
When he walked out of the cafe, Xia Yu was a little absent-minded. How could he get money? Although he could be invisible, it would be useless if he couldn't find the right place.
These days, mobile payments are all nowadays. Apart from banks, I really don’t expect where there is a lot of cash to be ‘borrowed’.
Do you want to go to the Australian Casino? But I am not familiar with it at all.
At this time, a phone ringing suddenly rang, which scared Xia Yu who was thinking. He picked up his phone and took a look. It was Fujiwara Fujiwara called him.
I couldn't help but feel a little surprised, what did this girl call herself?
During the last game, because of the relationship between one team, the four of them were familiar with each other. The four of the Travelers team exchanged phone numbers, but after all, they were just teammates in a game. Who would be with whom in the next game? Xia Yu never thought that someone would really call him.
After thinking about it, I answered the phone, "Hey, Chuxue, have something to ask me for?"
"Traveler, what skills did you draw last time you draw a card? Have you drawn a lock-opening skill or stealth skill?"
Xia Yu was immediately happy, "Why are you asking this? And why do I tell you?"
"Aren't we friends? I have something that requires professionals to do, so please don't worry, it's not a dangerous thing, and the reward is absolutely generous. Is it convenient for you? I'm waiting for you in Meow Meow Cafe, come here first."
Xia Yu originally wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, it seemed that there was no need to refuse so simply. It would be okay to hear what happened.
Half an hour later, Xia Yu came to Meow Meow Cafe.
This was the first time he came to such a place. It looked very curious. There was a huge lucky cat at the door. When he walked in, he found that the ground was full of cats. A waiter wearing a cat-faced mask led him to a seat inside. Fujiwara Fujiri was wearing a doll suit and holding a short-sized man in his arms. In the opposite position, there was a fat orange squatting, sitting opposite her like a friend.
There were black tea and snacks on the table, as if they were having a tea party with the cat.
Xia Yuxin said that you really know how to play in the second dimension. He picked up the fat jujube and sat down. He asked while stroking the cat regardless of the fat jujube's struggle, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
Fujiwara Fujiyuki looked around and leaned down and lowered his voice, and said mysteriously: "I have drawn the resurrection skill this time."
Xia Yu was surprised, and was a little surprised. He didn't expect that there was really something like resurrection skill.
He always felt that it was unlikely that anyone could draw it. After all, this thing destroys the balance of the game. As long as one person has the resurrection skill, the players can unite to win points.
"Then why didn't you say it?" He asked strangely. If Fujiwara Fujiro said it, it would definitely become a popular item for everyone. Everyone would probably please her. Fujiwara Fujiro could rely on his resurrection technique to let others help her win the game. Whoever dies will ask Fujiwara Fujiro to help him recruit people. Wouldn't that be perfect to avoid the risks of the game?
But Fujiwara Fujiyu shook his head, "Don't get me wrong, it's not the resurrection technique that resurrects others, but the skill that shaman resurrects himself called 'rebirth', and it's a price to use this skill."
Xia Yu suddenly realized, thinking that this is right, and he knew that it was impossible to arrange such a bug skill, but even if he just resurrected himself, he was domineering enough.
"So, what's the price?"
But Fujiwara Fujiyuki didn't hide it at all. "Using the rebirth skill requires a rebirth cross to be used. If there is no rebirth cross, is there another way? It is to perform a ritual to gain recognition from the ancestor's spirit and obtain rebirth with the help of the ancestor's protection."
Xia Yu was stunned for a moment. He actually didn't expect the other party to answer his question. After all, this is a powerful trump card. I didn't expect this girl to say it like this. I don't know if it was too simple or too stupid, but the spirit of the ancestors? Where can I find this thing?
"Then what does it mean to look for me? I won't be a master."
"The thing about jumping to the gods - I mean I can handle the rituals myself, but to perform this ritual, you must have an altar of ancestors. If it is converted to reality, it should be almost equivalent to a clan ancestral hall.
So I have to find a way to enter the ancestral hall in my hometown.”
The Xia Yu family is a small family, and they don’t care so much, so they have no idea about clans and other things. They said strangely: “Then go?”
Fujiwara Fujiyu shook his head, "It's not that simple. Only men can enter my ancestral hall, and it will only be opened when worshiping ancestors. It will be tightly closed on weekdays and there are special people to guard it. If I want to perform a ritual, it is impossible. If my father knows what kind of ritual I go to the ancestral hall, he will have to beat me to death.
That's why I asked you if you have any sneak or lock-opening skills. If so, I would like to ask you to help me sneak in."
Xia Yu really didn't expect that such a thing would happen. He hesitated for a moment, "What if I was caught?"
"It's me who caught the unlucky one. There is no danger to you, an outsider. At most, they will beat you away. And even if it fails, I can pay you half the reward. How about it? Let's make a price." Finally, in order to increase the tone, Fujiwara Kuroyuki slapped the table suddenly, but after the slap, he stuck out his tongue.
Xia Yuxin said that it was so generous? But it was understandable. Fujiwara Fujiri was obviously a good person.
He was confused for a moment. It was said that he didn't really want to participate in such a mess, but it seemed that there was no danger. It was lower than stealing money from a bank. Just treat it as helping a friend.
Besides, if you happen to open a store yourself, you also need start-up capital.
"Hundreds of thousands!"
"Can."
