Chapter 27: The Clumsy Bird Flies Early
He had no time to check the changes in the stats panel.
Roger turned over and jumped down, pouncing on another gray dwarf.
Although the assassination of gray dwarf was sufficiently concealed, its violent struggle immediately attracted the attention of its companion — it was clear that the gray dwarves themselves also had a very high toughness value.
The other gray dwarf was holding a short crossbow in its hand.
Seeing Roger rushing over, without further ado, it raised its hands and shot out an arrow!
But the distance between the two parties was too close, and the arrow was shot in vain.
The gray dwarf anxiously and clumsily pulled on the latch, seemingly wanting to reload another arrow.
But Roger would not give it another chance.
He adjusted the angle in mid-air, then raised his hand–
A bundle of magic rope was thrown out of his palm, and it quickly encircled the gray dwarf a few times.
Accompanied by a simple short spell, the magic rope was like a python tightening around its prey and automatically binding the gray dwarf.
This bundle of magic rope was obtained by Roger from the blood mage apprentice.
The spell used also came from the “Common Spells of Mystra” series.
The only difference was that the ninth spell was used for the ring, and the fourth spell was used for the magic rope.
Seeing that the magic rope had effectively restrained the dwarf, Roger didn’t hesitate to wrap the end of the magic rope around the branch on his side, and then jumped off the tree.
The gray dwarf let out a tragic wail and was immediately hung on the tree like a smoked duck.
Its voice quickly alarmed the gray dwarves on the shore.
Roger steadied himself and tied the magic rope to the locust tree.
Then he took out the [Little Thumb].
After filling the pebble, he pulled gently on the slingshot. He aimed at the gray dwarf’s mouth, and then let go.
This series of actions was done very smoothly.
The next second, he heard the almost inaudible sound of teeth cracking.
The cries of the gray dwarf also became fragmented.
Roger, who achieved his goal, climbed the old locust tree again from the other side.
He picked a relatively hidden branch and activated the skill [Hiding].

On the shore, the three gray dwarves were a little confused.
Their eyesight was very poor. From this position, they could not clearly see the situation of their companions at all. They could only hear its scream.
But since this guy’s teeth had been broken, and there was a long distance between them, they could not hear its shouts clearly.
The three were annoyed by the shouting, so they planned to go over and see what happened.
If they were to approach the tree by the land route, they would have to make a big circle.
The grumpy gray dwarves naturally chose to enter the water and were prepared to swim there.
The gray dwarf hung on the tree saw this scene vaguely, and its shouts became even more anxious!
Unfortunately, its companions were not able to understand its anxiety, and they instead swam even faster because of its roar.
On the old locust tree, Roger’s figure quietly appeared.
In his hand, he carried the short crossbow picked up from the dead gray dwarf.
Roger patiently cut off every sarcoma.
This thing was a bit similar to the parotid glands of the Explosive Magic Frog.
He planned to collect them and see if he could make something similar to the Element Bottle.
After all, this was going to be a protracted battle.
During the battle, part of the Element Bottles he had brought would definitely be consumed.
He could not just live off solely on his current capital, could he?

After gathering the spoils, Roger then had time to check the notifications on the stats panel.
He studied it and found that the category of [Milestones] had changed.
“What’s the use of milestone points?” Roger was a little curious.
In his perception, milestone points could only be exchanged for specific [Titles].
Only when the relevant milestone was unlocked, could the milestone points be exchanged for the corresponding title.
To make an analogy, for the milestone of [Yuntai Mountain Frog Hunter], the corresponding title was [Frog’s Natural Enemy].
And the effect of equipping the title was [Double Damage to All Frog-Type Creatures].
To obtain this title, he had to consume 1 milestone point.
When he saw this effect, Roger smiled and shook his head.
If it was doubling damage to all amphibians, he might have considered it.
But just frogs...
He wanted to ask who in the world would sit there all day killing frogs?
If there was such a person, then they must really be too idle.
The rest of the titles were similarly outrageous.
...
[Try Your Hand] corresponded to [Confident Novice], and the effect was [Your self-confidence had increased by 5%].
...
[Grinding the Bones and Scattering the Ashes] corresponded to [Vicious Killer], and the effect was [You will Smell of Ashes]
...
[Assassin’s Creed] was better, corresponding to [Cold-Blooded Assassin], and the effect was [Your Body Temperature Will Not be Sensed by Infrared Vision or Similar Spells].
...
Except for the [Cold-Blooded Assassin], Roger didn’t want to exchange any of them at all!
So his milestone points had been saved till now.
Maybe it was because the milestone points had accumulated to a certain number and triggered the reminder function, now Roger had been told that he could use milestone points to exchange for other things!
After Roger read the description carefully, his eyes suddenly lit up!
