Starting with the awakened Poison God: I choose the Master Thief.

As the sound faded, Chu Ci's figure also disappeared into the ruins of the ancient capital.

Two hours later.

Following his intuition, Chu Ci found his destination.

From a great distance, he could already see the vast pack of ferocious wolves on the grassland, which seemed to be hunting a beast-like monster called the spotted deer.

【Spotted Deer】(lv.80)

Health: 2 million

Physical attack: 1k

Magic Attack: 0.5k

Physical defense: 0.5k

Magic Defense: 0.5k

Speed: 3k

Anti-stealth level: 2

Skill: Vigilant Eyes: Possesses a keen sense of danger and will flee at top speed once detected.

. . .

How can someone have such a fear of death?

Thinking it over, Chu Ci tried to approach a spotted deer to test this so-called Eye of Vigilance.

300 meters...200 meters...100 meters...

Suddenly, just as Chu Ci was about 50 meters away from the other party, the spotted deer let out a strange cry and then ran away in a flash.

"Huh? What's going on? My invisibility level is clearly level 5, this guy shouldn't be able to see me."

Unconvinced, he found another one, but this time it ran away before even getting within 100 meters.

"That shouldn't be the case. When invisible, not only is your scent masked, but even the sounds you make are almost completely covered by skill effects. How did this guy find me with just his eyes?"

This discovery made Chu Ci's heart tighten, because if that were the case, even an 80-level monster could see through his invisibility, and his advantage could become his most obvious weakness.

Just then, Chu Ci noticed the wolf pack in the far distance.

This piqued his interest, so he went to a fierce wolf on the grassland.

Sure enough, even when they were only a meter apart, the ferocious wolf on the grassland still couldn't spot him.

"Tsk, where exactly is the problem?"

He couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he tried; he had to find out the answer.

"Hmm? Have these prairie wolves started to close in?"

On the distant grassland.

Dozens of fierce wolves from the grasslands formed a circle and swaggered around several spotted deer.

The encirclement was very large, with a diameter of up to two kilometers.

They don't bother to hide themselves at all, and just approach their prey directly.

"Is it that you don't want to hide it, or that hiding it is useless?" Chu Ci continued reading.

When the encirclement narrowed to one kilometer, the grazing deer suddenly became alert.

They noticed the wolf pack and, in the blink of an eye, broke out in the same direction.

At the same time, dozens of ferocious wolves on the grassland also accelerated instantly, and the encirclement was closing in at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Although the spotted deer are faster than the wolves of the grasslands, this method of encirclement and hunting ultimately leads to their demise.

Only one spotted deer escaped because there weren't enough wolves on one side.

"These guys are pretty smart. If they run around randomly, they'll be facing an entire encirclement of enemies, and none of them will escape. But if they break through in one direction, they can take advantage of the enemy's temporary numerical disadvantage and find themselves in a dangerous situation."

"It seems that the hunters here have long been familiar with the habits of this prey. They know they will definitely be discovered, so they don't bother to hide. Instead, they use their numbers to surround and hunt it."

"Even so, I still can't figure out how the spotted deer broke through my invisibility technique."

"Forget it, thinking like this won't solve anything. Let's just keep experimenting. I have plenty of time anyway."

Chu Ci walked towards the escaped spotted deer.

The other person was clearly still in shock, his big eyes constantly scanning his surroundings. He didn't even bother to eat, fearing that some other danger might appear.

Based on his previous experience, Chu Ci knew that approaching the spotted deer from behind or in front was not very effective, so this time he chose to approach from the front.

100 meters...

This is Chu Ci's current location; the other side hasn't spotted him yet.

Go forward another 50 meters! Still nothing.

Huh? What's going on? Is it because all our vigilance is focused on the wolves on the grasslands?

Turning my head, I saw dozens of ferocious wolves tearing apart the carcass of a spotted deer; the scene was indeed quite bloody.

Never mind, let's get close to them first.

30 meters...20 meters...

Suddenly, the spotted deer seemed to be stimulated by something and ran in the opposite direction from where Chu Ci was approaching, clearly indicating that it had discovered him.

"Damn it! Can't I just succeed once? What's wrong with me?!"

Feeling depressed, Chu Ci glanced around.

"Huh? What's this?"

He then realized that he was in a blank area of ​​the grassland, a place where no vegetation grows. However, such places are common here and not too unusual, so he hadn't paid much attention to them before.

And where his right foot was, a newly sprouted blade of grass was trampled under his foot.

Could it be?

Chu Ci seemed to have thought of something and immediately began the experiment.

He first found a spotted deer in an empty area, and then approached it smoothly.

Then they found another spotted deer on the grassland. This time, they kept it 300 meters away and didn't approach it. Instead, they kept poking at the grass around their feet with their hands.

Sure enough, the spotted deer instantly became alert and ran away in a flash.

"Damn it, so that's why! Dude, your skills are a bit too overpowered, aren't they? You can notice the irregular swaying of the grass from 300 meters away. How am I supposed to get close? You can have the grassland for free."

That's right, the true ability of these spotted deer's "Eyes of Vigilance" skill is what they call insight.

Although not explicitly described in the skill descriptions, Chu Ci experienced it firsthand during the experiment.

While invisibility can indeed conceal one's existence in various ways, the most crucial element—physical volume—still remains.

Therefore, when the other party has high enough insight, they can deduce some results from the slightest clues.

Irregularly swaying grass and the slightest dust raised can all become clues.

But Chu Ci had almost never heard of a monster capable of doing that.

This spotted deer touched upon a blind spot in his knowledge.

"Alright, now that we've found the cause, let's not stand on ceremony any longer, 'Helpful Hands'!"

-400 -400

The injured deer let out a strange cry and ran away, so fast that Chu Ci couldn't catch up.

"It's a bit troublesome, but at least the efficiency is stable. It just means I'll have to run around a lot to pick up the equipment later."

"However, it's not a big problem. Anyway, the divine poison can sense the general location of the death."

Stealing a needle in a haystack! Stealing a needle in a haystack!

After afflicting all ten spotted deer with the divine poison, Chu Ci stopped.

"Let's test the waters with this many first, so that the level doesn't increase too quickly and prevent us from triggering the Spirit Dust Hand."
