Shua Shua Shua.

Ruby, Baldy, and Crow stood up almost at the same time and looked towards the door in the room.

It was obvious that the newcomers were not good people. They were two humans wearing black cloaks and a guard.

Baldy flung the drumstick in his hand on the ground and said with an angry face, “How did the guard know about this place? Who told him our information?!”

Of course, no one answered him.

Baldy turned to Ruby and Crow, he then shouted, “I’ll deal with this guard. You guys deal with the other two.”

“Don’t worry about the dagger. Let’s deal with these b*stards first!”

He took charge of the difficult parts for himself and left the other two to Ruby and Crow.

After all, the two cloaked guys should have lost their owners. They were probably not as strong as this guard.

The one who used the magic staff was naturally a mage, and a mage who loses their magic staff would definitely be greatly weakened.

It would definitely be enough for Ruby and Crow to deal with them.

Originally, Baldy just wanted to distribute the tasks and deal with the difficulties in front of him first.

Who knew that Ruby and Crow actually held on to the dagger at the same time! Even if the treasure and loot were extremely important to the thief.

Greed got in the way!

Hearing Baldy’s words, Ruby glanced at Crow and said in a low voice, “Don’t forget what you promised, my share!”

Crow only nodded and did not say anything further.

Although this verbal agreement was very unreliable, Ruby still let go.

Now was obviously not the time to be too persistent on this matter.

The three of them immediately united and faced the three people in front of them.

“You want to deal with me? Don’t you know that assaulting a guard is a felony?!

“I advise you to surrender immediately! Er…”

After he heard Baldy say that he wanted to deal with him, Jess warned the three of them with a serious face.

But before he could finish his words, he saw that Timus had already pulled out the stone sword on his back and rushed out.

Obviously, compared to the upright guard Jess, Mike and Timus preferred a more direct way of doing things.

“You’re the ones who stole my things, aren’t you? Bastards!”

Timus was full of anger as he brandished the huge stone sword and slashed at them. However, these three guys were thieves, so their bodies were naturally much more agile than ordinary people.

The thieves rushed out in three different directions at almost the same time and dodged this attack.

This made Timus even more furious.

They were clearly just measly thieves, but they actually dodged his attack. Then, Timus began a storm-like combo attack.

The sword was waved in Timus’ hands rapidly, as if he was waving a light wooden stick.

But no matter how he attacked, he could not hit the three of them.

He could not even touch their clothes.

Jess, who stood at the side, was stunned for a long time. He had never thought that this human named Timus had such powerful strength.

On the other hand, what he did not expect was that these thieves from the Thieves Union were also experts!

After being shocked, he came back to his senses and looked at Mike, “Aren’t you going to help him? Aren’t you called his teacher?”

When Mike heard this, he did not answer directly. Instead, he turned his head to look at Jess and asked, “Aren’t you going to catch them? Aren’t you the guards of the Ancient City of Life?”

“UH…”

Jess was speechless.

Just as Mike had said, he was the guard of the Ancient City of Life. Logically speaking, he should be the one to deal with them.

As the owners of the lost property, Timus and Mike should have stood by the side and watched Jess retrieve their lost property.
