Chapter 1390: Chapter 730 Thief Trio

Giant Run Mountain Range.

The name of this mountain range means exactly what it suggests; giants once ran in large numbers along these mountains, where there used to be a glorious Giant Empire.

However, those giants are no longer here, leaving only the spiral climbing stairs built specifically for giants and the towering palaces atop the peaks.

These enormous spiral stairs and palaces, when viewed from a distance or from the air, don’t seem particularly striking.

But if you stand among them, you can clearly feel their disdain for the smaller races.

"I’m not climbing anymore, whoever wants to climb can go ahead. If I keep climbing, and don’t find that Cloud Manta’s nest, I’ll die of exhaustion."

"I’ve always said we need a Mage for this task. Even if we can’t find a Mage, get a Magician, or a Priest at least. "

"As long as they can cast a Flying Spell for each of us, why do we have to painstakingly climb these stairs that aren’t meant for humans?"

A Demi-Human clad in Leather Armor, exuding agility from head to toe, lay sprawled over the large step as if lying on a platform.

If the enormous steps of Giant Run Mountain Range, each one and a half meters high, were malicious to humans and medium body type creatures,

then for someone only eighty-five centimeters tall, it’s blatant discrimination, an unmitigated disaster.

With each step, he had to take several running steps to reach the top of the step and climb over.

Even though he’s a Half-Elf Thief renowned for agility, climbing over a thousand steps like these is tiring.

Most importantly, these stairs are endless, and it’s unknown how many more need to be climbed.

"I’ve already explained, it’s not that we can’t use a Flying Spell right now, even if we could, it’s absolutely forbidden."

"The Cloud Manta is second only to adult Giant Dragons as the king of the skies, with Transcendent vision in the air. If we ascend, we might be discovered before we reach its nest and become prey."

"Although these giant stairs are unfriendly, they provide us an outstanding cover; if we don’t ascend, it’s hard for anything behind us to notice us..."

"Find cover, quickly find cover, the cloud at the upper left corner of the mountain looks unusual, moving unlike other clouds."

A female human Adventurer dressed as a thief loudly reminded.

Whether it was the male Half-Elf Thief who was explaining or the Demi-Human Thief sprawled out, both cleverly shrank into the shadows of the stairs.

With a tug of their cloaks, their bodies were enveloped completely, blending with the shadows; without the aid of Magic, it’d be hard to discover them.

The three Thieves melded into the shadows continued their whispered conversation: "The special sale Ghost Cloak from the Conqueror Guild is truly a godsend for thieves. With one cloak, places we couldn’t go before are now As If On Level Ground, targets we couldn’t spy on are now easily prey."

"Useful as it may be, it’s really expensive, five thousand a piece must be ordered a month in advance. Just these three have cost us fifty thousand."

"There’s logic in expensive things. I heard many thieves and assassins who advanced to the Shadow Thieves profession to gain shadow abilities were almost crying."

"The abilities they painstakingly gained through advancement can largely be acquired with a Ghost Cloak."

Now, they’re thinking of ways to learn how to make these Shadow Cloaks to completely destroy them."

"Foolish move, who doesn’t know Efanso’s Conqueror Guild was founded by the Conqueror Gaven himself? Even if the black and white factions of every city on the Giant Dragon Coast teamed up, they couldn’t touch his Conqueror Army. A bunch of Shadow Thieves? They’d likely not return. People capable of mass-producing Ghost Cloaks surely have ways to defend against such threats."

"That’s not our concern. As long as we haven’t taken any wrong turns."

"This is another reason we didn’t hire a Mage. These three Ghost Cloaks have exhausted our past savings. Spellcasters won’t join us without seeing upfront payment for such a risky task."

"If we succeed, we’ll immediately escape the predicament. A Cloud Manta Egg sells for at least twenty thousand gold coins in the market."

"With one, we can recoup. With two, we make a significant profit. Three, and we can consider retiring, each pocketing tens of thousands of gold coins, enough for all of us to open our own small store in the City of Faith."

"I hear it’s full of business opportunities. Those disadvantaged folks forcibly put into the Conqueror Army by black-hearted city lords and mayors have turned their fortunes, earning more daily than strong workers in West Gate City."

"For those who invest in opening a store, they offer various support and discounts. Not only are store rents cheap, taxes are waived for several months, far better than the city taxes and guild tributes on the Giant Dragon Coast."

"What you say, without seeing it firsthand, is just hearsay and cannot be relied upon. Anyone can talk, but not everyone can achieve."

"The most important thing is, how reliable is your information? We’ve invested everything in this, yet haven’t even seen a shadow of the Cloud Manta, every time it’s just passing clouds."
