Seeing that Wave Breaker was about to hit the enemy, Caesar's face turned ferocious.
"Teleportation?"
However, he felt his weapon loosen and his Wave Breaker hit nothing. The enemy in front of him had actually used Teleportation to escape the attack.
"Attack!"
Chen Mo knew that it would take him a lot of time to deal with Caesar alone. With Joanna in the dark, time was limited. Chen Mo didn't want to waste any more time, so he decisively asked Joanna to attack.
Joanna, who was wearing a black cloak, suddenly appeared behind Caesar like a ghost and slammed her palm toward him.
Caesar hurriedly dodged, but his level was about ten levels lower than Joanna's, so he was still hit by Joanna's attack.
"Joanna, what is the meaning of this?
I, Caesar, have never offended you! "
Although Joanna was wearing a black cloak, Caesar immediately recognized her as the castellan of Eastsea City.
In this city, Caesar was most wary of Joanna, so he knew Joanna's attack methods very well.
"You haven't offended me, but I have received many reports from adventurers that someone attacked them at the beach in the middle of the night.
It can't be anyone else other than you! "Joanna said coldly. She didn't show any mercy when she attacked.
She had suffered a lot from Chen Mo, and now it was time to vent her anger on Caesar.
"Do you have evidence?
Don't accuse me if you don't! "Caesar hurriedly dodged and roared.
"Evidence?
Hmph!
Don't think that I don't know what you've done. I didn't care about you in the past because I didn't have time. Today, I happen to have time, so I'll deal with you! "Joanna snorted.
Caesar didn't live in Eastsea City. It wasn't that he didn't want to, but because he had repeatedly committed crimes and was expelled from Eastsea City.
Caesar had been like this before adventurers appeared. After adventurers appeared, Caesar would occasionally sneak attack adventurers and make a fortune from the dead.
However, Caesar was someone who had left Eastsea City. He didn't commit any major crimes and was caught red-handed. Joanna couldn't attack him, so she didn't want to ruin her reputation in Eastsea City.
However, now that Chen Mo wanted to catch her, Qiao Anna didn't care anymore. As long as no one knew that she was the one who did it, she wasn't afraid.
She was about to lose her position as the mayor of the city. Naturally, Joanna would not take this rumor to heart.
"Stealth!"
From the perspective of the players, Caesar's class was similar to that of an Assassin. Not only did he use a dagger as a weapon, but he also had the Stealth skill.
After Caesar was knocked back by Joanna, he quickly used [Stealth] and tried to sneak away.
"Ceci Hailow!"
However, Chen Mo, who was watching from the sidelines, immediately called out Ceci Hailow and used Hurricane to attack.
The radius of the Hurricane Skill was quite large. Before Caesar could take more than a few steps, the Skill had already broken through his Stealth, revealing him.
Recently, Ceci Hailow didn't have many opportunities to appear. Previously, she came out without permission and wanted to snatch the God's Punishment Witch's blood. In the end, she failed and was forced to return to the pet space.
Now that Chen Mo called her out, Ceci Hailow acted as if nothing had happened and obeyed Chen Mo's orders.
"You still want to escape?
Caesar, I advise you to surrender. Don't waste everyone's time. "Joanna looked at Caesar coldly and attacked even more viciously.
Caesar was struggling to hold on, but his HP was dropping rapidly. In the blink of an eye, his HP had dropped below 20%.
The biggest difference between NPCs and monsters was that NPCs had a lot of autonomy. Monsters would only use their trump cards when their HP dropped to a certain level. However, NPCs were different. As long as they were willing, they could use their most powerful skills at any time once the conditions were met.
This was the case when Caesar used Wave Breaker at the beginning. He had used his most powerful skill right from the start. After that, his HP dropped rapidly and he couldn't put up any effective resistance.
However, Caesar's level was ten levels lower than Joanna's. Even if he had more powerful skills, he couldn't put up any resistance.
Soon, Caesar's HP fell to 5%. Chen Mo could use the Sealing Skill to seal him.
When Caesar's HP fell to 3%, Chen Mo waved his hand and signaled for Joanna to stop.
"Caesar, I'll give you a choice. Either you die here, or I seal you for a year. After a year, I'll let you out and let you live." Chen Mo stepped forward and gave Caesar a final ultimatum.
It couldn't be helped. The Sealing Skill only had a small chance of sealing the target. Even sealing ordinary monsters had a high chance of failure, not to mention sealing an NPC whose level was higher than his. If Caesar was unwilling, Chen Mo's chances of sealing him would be very high.
There were only a few candidates. The Sealing Skill could only be used once on the same target. If the sealing failed, then the candidate would be useless and must be killed.
Killing NPCs rarely yielded good loot. Chen Mo had no intention of killing anyone. Hence, Chen Mo wanted to persuade Caesar. As long as he agreed, the Sealing Skill had a high chance of sealing him, just like how it had sealed the Undead Bone Dragon.
"Who are you?
Joanna, why are you listening to an adventurer? "Caesar looked at Chen Mo in shock.
The high and mighty Joanna actually listened to an adventurer. If the adventurer told her to attack, she would attack. If the adventurer told her to stop, she would stop. This was simply inconceivable!
"Don't ask so many questions. Knowing too much isn't a good thing for you. Do you want to live or die? I'll give you three seconds to consider.
One … two … "
After listening to Caesar's words, a murderous glint flashed across Joanna's eyes. She wanted to silence him. Chen Mo was worried that Joanna would accidentally kill Caesar, so he hurriedly shouted at Caesar.
"Nobody wants to die. Will you really let me go after a year?" Caesar gnashed his teeth as he looked at Chen Mo.
"Of course. I'm only sealing you now because I want to borrow your skills. After a year, who knows how powerful I'll be? You'll be useless to me long ago," Chen Mo said calmly.
"Of course, if you have the skill book for Wave Breaker, and this skill book doesn't require a Talent Mastery to learn, I won't seal you. I'll let you go right now!"
Chen Mo said. Suddenly, his eyes shone as he spoke to Caesar.
He didn't know if the common dagger skill existed. If it did, then he wouldn't just be learning three dagger skills!
If he could learn more dagger skills, then he would be very powerful in his witch form!
"I don't have the skill book. This Wave Breaker skill is something I learned from fighting sea monsters in the sea. I can't teach it to you. It's better if you seal me!
However, you must remember your promise! "
Joanna's fierce gaze made Caesar's heart turn cold. He no longer hesitated and quickly said to Chen Mo.
"Seal!"
Seeing this, Chen Mo had nothing to say. He immediately used the sealing skill.
A dark red light shot out from the Sealed Cage Ring and wrapped around Caesar. Caesar did not resist. The dark red light pulled Caesar into the ring.
System Notice: You have sealed NPC "Caesar"!
The Sealed Cage Ring's attributes have been enhanced!
"Hehe, not bad!"
Chen Mo glanced at the Sealed Cage Ring and found that its basic Physical and Magic Attack had increased to 140 points, while its Strength and Intelligence had increased to 60 points.
Sure enough, sealing an NPC was easier to increase the attributes of the ring. Chen Mo still had to seal three or four more people. He couldn't help but look forward to the ring's attributes.
"Let's go!
Next target! "
After successfully sealing Caesar, Chen Mo and Joanna sprinted towards their next target.
This time, their target was a little far. It was at the border between the City of Shadows and the East Sea.
"Who are you?
I, Touba, have never offended you!
Why are you ambushing me here? "
Three hours later, Chen Mo and Joanna had started attacking a young NPC named Touba in a tall cactus.
This young NPC was ambushed by Chen Mo in the beginning. He retaliated. Chen Mo tested Touba's back and felt that he indeed had some skills. He immediately called for Joanna to help him.
Since Joanna was around, it would be a waste to not capture him. Even if this guy's skills were mediocre, capturing him would increase the attributes of the Sealed Cage Ring. No matter how one looked at it, it was a good deal.
"Accept your fate. I've taken a fancy to your skills. If you can hand over the skill book for this skill, I can still let you go. Otherwise, be a good boy and let me seal you!
Otherwise, only death awaits you! "
Shouted Chen Mo. He still wanted to get the skill books from these NPCs.
"Hmph, little fella, I can't beat her, but you can die!
Earthshatter Spike! "
Touba did not recognize Joanna. He did not know how powerful Joanna was. He thought that if he could kill Chen Mo, he would still have a chance to escape. Taking advantage of Chen Mo's distraction, Touba used his trump card.
He stabbed his dagger into the ground. Following that, several rays of dagger radiance shot out from the ground and pierced towards Chen Mo.
If Chen Mo were to be hit by this attack, he would definitely die with his health bar.
Fortunately, Chen Mo had learned of Touba's trump card from Joanna before coming here. When Touba used Earthshatter Spike, Chen Mo did not even think about it. He immediately teleported away using Instantaneous Movement. Touba's Earthshatter Spike missed its target.
"Sigh of the Dark Night!"
Joanna took the opportunity to hit Touba with her palm. Touba's health instantly dropped like water. His body was enveloped by a black aura, and his movements were instantly slowed down.
He was not Joanna's opponent to begin with. Now that he was affected by the debuff, his health dropped below 10% in just a short while.
"How is it? Life is precious. Do you want to live or die?
If you want to die, she won't stop until you're dead.
If you want to live, stand still and wait for me to seal you. Don't resist. "
When Touba's health dropped a little more, Chen Mo spoke again.
…
The second time was even worse.
