Chapter 492: Cultured Robber (1/2)

Tang Shaoyang found it was normal to be targeted by the robber. Ashley did not bother to lower her voice when she asked for the best room at Biaska Inn. A lot of people might overhear them which resulted in this case. However, the money was in the form of Game Coins with no physical form, so how did these robbers take the coins from him? There was no way he would transfer the money willingly to the robbers.

Tang Shaoyang looked at three men, they had the fierce look of the robber that might scare normal people, ”But how am I going to guarantee that you will not kill me after giving all my coins to you?” Curious about the method of the robber, he asked the three robbers.

”Don't worry about that, we are cultured robbers.” The man in the middle took out a brown leather scroll from his inventory, ”I have prepared the contract system. If you sign the contract, we will not kill you if you give us all the coins you have.” The man in the middle smiled reassuringly, ”You just need a drop of your blood on this scroll then the contract will be valid. If we even tried to kill you, we would be struck with Divine Lightning.”

The robber approached Tang Shaoyang. He thought Tang Shaoyang would give all his coins since he asked about that issue. The man did not even consider why this man went alone into the Gigante Forest.

Tang Shaoyang was baffled by how these robbers did their actions. They used the contract system for their actions. It was quite smart actually. The robber arrived in front of him and handed the scroll toward him.

”Drop your blood on this spot.” There was a column where he had to drop the blood. The robber had dropped theirs. Instead of following their instructions, Tang Shaoyang read the contract. He might be a thug with no knowledge about a contract before the Game. However, he had read hundreds of contracts up to this day after he became the leader of the Tang Empire.

The Tarriors had to sign the contract. The slave had to sign the contract as well, including the workers such as the farmers and the cooks. All of them had to sign the contract and he supervised all the contracts.

The contract was drafted well. It said that the three robbers could not do anything to him after they got all the coins from him. There were no loopholes in the contract that could be abused by three. Once he dropped his blood on the contract, these three robbers could not hurt him.

”Hehehe…” Tang Shaoyang suddenly let out a chuckle and followed by the three robbers, ”Kuhuhuhu…”

”Do you think I am stupid?” He abruptly asked the robber and the three robber's smiles froze. They thought Tang Shaoyang would sign the contract for sure. They had been successful many times, after all. They were confident that this time they would succeed again, but things did not go as they planned.

”I can detect your presence, meaning I can also detect the other fourteen robbers that followed you,” Tang Shaoyang squinted his eyes at the three robbers, ”While you three can't kill me after signing the contract, the other fourteen can. This is smart if you target someone weaker than you guys.”

A flame appeared in his hand and burned the scroll. Within the flash, Tang Shaoyang took out a battle-ax and immediately swung it horizontally. Two out of three robbers could not react in time as the battle-ax sliced through their necks. The heads flew upward as blood spurted out like a fountain from the two robbers.

The robber in the middle managed to dodge with a swallow cut on his neck. If he was late a second later, he would be dead too. Not expecting the prey would hunt them back, the surviving robber was in a state of shock. He thought the man would be easy prey for them.

”Coward! How dare you sneak attack on us!” The surviving robber snarled in anger while pointing his finger at Tang Shaoyang.

”I will not kill you, don't worry. I will let you live to witness how we take care of your women too right in front of you. We will teach you how to care for women!” The robber used his time to threaten Tang Shaoyang before he raised his hand, ”What are you doing! Shoot him! Cripple him!”

Along with the shouts, arrows rained down at Tang Shaoyang. He remained composed as he had identified these robbers. He did not know how many people had fallen for their trick, but the robber did not bother to buy the tool to ward off the [Detection Skill] for them. The robber in front of him was the highest level, Level 402. The other fourteen robbers' levels varied, from level 321 the lowest up to level 391.

[Flash Step]

Tang Shaoyang used his skill as he appeared in front of the level 402 robber. His movement was so fast that the robber could not react to this. Tang Shaoyang's hand reached the man's neck and raised him to the air. He used the robber's body to shield him from the arrow.
