Chapter 632: Bug

The male protagonist played by Gao Fei watched Jiang Feng sneak into the mansion from a god's perspective before he had his turn to play.

There are a dozen guards patrolling the Bagum family's compound.

The guards have whistles hanging on their chests. If they spot an intruder, they will immediately blow the whistle to warn them. They must be careful to avoid them.

Twelve guards, eight of them are Bagham's servants, the challenge level is only 1/4, they are unworthy of mentioning.

There are also four more powerful professional mercenaries, all with challenge levels of 3. Wearing standard leather armor, with a long sword and pistol slung at his waist, his every move exudes a shrewd and capable temperament.

"It seems that Bagham also knows how much he is hated by people." Gao Fei said to Jiang Feng through the Astrolabe private chat channel.

"That's right. If you don't do too many bad things and have some evil intentions, why would you arrange so many bodyguards to patrol day and night?"

Jiang Feng frowned slightly, feeling a little worried.

"The guards are divided into four groups, patrolling in groups of three. Each group is led by highly vigilant professional mercenaries. It is difficult to find an opening to sneak in."

There was less than two minutes between each group of patrols.

Jiang Feng had to complete the two tasks of infiltrating and unlocking the door in just two minutes. It was too difficult and there was no guarantee of success.

If you make a slight mistake, the guards will be alerted. At least, your trip tonight will be in vain, and at worst, it will be difficult to escape unscathed.

"Is there any way to distract a group of guards?" Gao Fei gave his girlfriend some advice.

"I'll give it a try."

Jiang Feng removed a tile from the edge of the eaves and planned to ask for directions.

At this time, a dark cloud covered the moonlight, and the moist breath brought by the night wind heralded the imminent rain.

Jiang Feng suddenly had an idea. He put down the tiles first, and then used the "Water Making Technique" to create a drizzle of light rain above the Bagum Residence.

The overcast night sky, combined with the stormy atmosphere, provided perfect cover for this artificial rainfall.

The patrolling guards did not notice anything unusual. Instinctively, he ran to a nearby building and stood under the eaves to take shelter from the rain.

Jiang Feng took advantage of the chaos to climb over the wall and sneak into the Bagum family's house. He crouched close to the flower bed and used the flowers to cover his figure. He avoided the guards with no risk and came to the window sill of the big house.

Prying open a window bolt requires a DC 10 Sleight of Hands check.

Jiang Feng's Sleight of Hand skill was +6, and with the help of thieves' tools, he had an advantage in the lockpicking check and could easily get in through the window.

At the dinner at Lucas's house, the heroine has obtained reliable information and is convinced that Bagham keeps most of the treasure in the basement.

After Jiang Feng entered the foyer, he quickly found the stairs leading to the basement.

The stairs went all the way to the end, and what stood in front of them was an iron door blessed with a "secret lock".

It took a minute, and a bit of luck, but she managed to pry open the magically reinforced iron door and enter the basement.

After confirming that there were no guards in the basement, Jiang Feng made a series of spell-casting gestures, creating four dancing balls of light.

With the help of "dancing light" lighting, the collections in the basement can be seen in full view.

This was just one of the rooms where Bagham kept his ill-gotten wealth, and the furnishings were already so extravagant that Jiang Feng was stunned.

Twelve exquisite oil paintings in frames are placed against the wall.

Each painting is a rare treasure and its value is inestimable.

The wine cabinet displays famous and old wines, and piles of painted porcelain, gold and silverware, and antiques are randomly placed in the cabinet like ordinary tableware.

The most eye-catching thing is the ten-mouth jewelry box decorated with mother-of-pearl, which is neatly placed on the bookshelf, showing its extraordinary value.

Jiang Feng walked to the bookshelf and checked. All ten jewelry boxes were locked. To open each box, you need to use thieves' tools and successfully make a DC15 "Sleight of Hand" test.

For her current level, the difficulty of this test is not low.

What's even more troublesome is that every jewelry box is blessed with a "magic alarm".

Once you fail to pick the lock, or try to remove the box from the bookshelf, the alarm will be triggered immediately, attracting all the guards outside the house.

The lock of the jewelry box was particularly delicate. Jiang Feng could not use thieves' tools to gain an advantage and could only make normal checks.

Her Sleight of Hand check is +6, and her chance of succeeding on the DC 15 check is 60%.

If the unboxing fails, the probability of triggering the alarm is 40%.

"A simple calculation shows that the probability of you opening all ten jewelry boxes is only 0.6%. Unless you are extremely lucky and can throw ten consecutive coins heads, it is best not to try these treasure boxes. ”

Gao Fei reminded his girlfriend.

This is indeed advice based on rational analysis, but it cannot convince a woman to turn around and leave in front of a jewelry box.

"Antiques and paintings are cumbersome and difficult to get rid of. We still have to find a way to get these jewelry boxes. They must be filled with extremely valuable things!"

Jiang Feng said unwillingly.

"It would be great if I had learned the 'Knocking Technique' or obtained the 'Trap Expert' specialty. Before opening the lock, I could disable the 'Magic Alarm' to avoid worries."

Unfortunately, her "Temple" does not have the ability of "Trap Expert", and it is currently unable to learn the 2-ring magic "Knocking Technique" specifically used to pick locks and dismantle traps.

Switching to the high-flying "Magic Thief", since he has mastered the ability of "Trap Expert", in the same situation, he can dismantle the trap based on "Magic Alarm" before opening the box.

Gao Fei suddenly thought of something.

"By the way, you can cast the spell 'Magic Alarm' yourself, right?"

"Yes, in the prologue, you get the bonus specialty 'Sentinel', which comes with 'Magic Alarm'... Oh! I thought of it!"

Jiang Feng's eyes lit up, and he was so excited that his eyebrows flew.

"One item can only bless one set of magic alarms! If you continue to stack magic alarms, you can either choose to extend the duration of the alarm, or replace the old one with a new one!"

"Watson, you finally found the blind spot."

Gao Fei laughed and teased his girlfriend.

"There is a post on the Tianren Forum that mentions a strategy technique that is almost a bug, which is to perform malicious spells in a seemingly benign way to reduce the difficulty of the game."

"For example, when a boss's health drops below 1/2, it will cast 'Righteousness Like Rainbow' to enter the stronger second stage."

"If the player replenishes the boss's health from time to time, his health can always be kept above 1/2, which seems to be a kind act."

"In fact, through this method, the first stage of the battle is prolonged, so that the boss will consume all the magic power in the relatively weak first stage. Without magic power, it cannot cast 'Righteousness Like Rainbow' and cannot enter the second stage until it is killed..."

Perhaps because the game designer could not imagine that there are such boring players in the world, resulting in a similar loophole in "Magic Alert".
