The magic cards I made are absolutely flawless!

Dekan bowed gracefully, like a devilish butler, and then spoke.

"Oh, okay, please go ahead."

Lislina quickly regained her senses.

"The plan is simple: have your female relative pretend to be seriously injured and then flee the city."

Dekan pointed to Countess Lislina's only female retainer.

"Then order the city lord to send out a large number of weaker knights to chase after her. Once anyone comes to her aid, invite them to the lord's manor."

"Under the premise of not causing too much of a commotion, try to expand the scope of the pursuit so that all the experts in the city-state have a chance to detect this movement."

Dekan finished explaining his plan.

This made Countess Lislina frown slightly.

The plan described by this demon's familiar was almost identical to the plan she was originally carrying out.

Just

The first step is slightly different—

Dekan chose a female vampire familiar as bait and instructed her to act as if she were vulnerable.

"No problem, but whether we can catch another enemy tonight depends on luck."

Countess Liselina responded.

"Hehe, don't worry. Even if we can't capture all five of them, we shouldn't leave empty-handed. Everything is going according to the Marquis's plan."

"Okay, then I'll go prepare it now."

Lislina had initially wanted to ask Dekan if he had any other plans, but upon hearing that it was "the Marquis's plan," she dared not ask any further, despite her great curiosity.

"Don't kill these humans right away after you capture them. Let us interrogate them first."

Dekan added.

After all, there's a small chance of accidentally running into a normal challenger, so it's still necessary to check.

"Then let's not delay. I'll go and carry out the plan, and have the lord prepare bedrooms for you."

Countess Liselina responded.

"One room is enough. I am still very weak, and my family members need to stay with me."

Morion finally spoke again.

After all, they're playing with fire in the enemy's stronghold, so the whole squad has to stay together to take turns resting without worry.

170 Dekan Classic Entrapment

"Yes, Your Excellency."

Lislina bowed to Morion like a professional maid, went to the lord's bedroom to wake the unconscious lord, and gave him a series of instructions.

She then quickly led her family to the first floor.

Soon, the lord, like a servant, respectfully led Dekan and the other two to a suite that was no less luxurious than the lord's bedroom.

After entering the room, the three of them collapsed to the ground.

Dekan and Cornelia leaned back on the sofa as usual, while Morion sat at his desk.

"Not bad, he's a fairly competent hotel manager."

Dekan exclaimed in a low voice.

However, at this moment, having confirmed that they had entered a safe area, Teacher Cat emerged from Dekan's shadow.

It quickly ran to Morion's desk, pulled out a piece of paper, and used magic to control the pen, writing and drawing on the paper.

After he finished writing, he showed the contents of the paper to the other three people.

It reads:

"Are you all crazy?! Are you really going to use this countess?! What if she finds out and everything falls apart?!"

Sitting at the desk, Morion took the cat teacher's pen and wrote on the paper:

"Wouldn't it be a waste to use her up without squeezing out every last bit of her value?"

After all, finding and capturing the remaining challengers will be quite a task.

If only this countess could have made more of her value before she was killed.

Once the daytime arrives, the Countess and her retinue, once exposed to sunlight outside the building, will only have one-tenth of their fighting strength.

It could be said that they couldn't escape even if they wanted to; Ren Dekan and his two companions were slaughtered.

Teacher Cat is gradually getting along well.

After all, he had spent a terrifying night at the mansion when Dekan kept the information from him, so there was nothing to be afraid of now.

"But can we really catch the Resurrected Cultist tonight, meow?"

Teacher Cat wrote on the paper.

Morion didn't explain much, but simply took the paper and pen, stood up, and handed them to Dekan, who was slumped on the sofa.

Dekan accepted the paper and pen with considerable satisfaction.

Morion clearly knew what he was planning to do.

So Dekan wrote on the paper:

"Mission Objective 2: Defeat Countess Lislina. If this mission fails, Countess Lislina will be teleported to random coordinates in the challenger's original world after the mission time limit expires."

However, nothing happened after I finished writing it.

Soon, Dekan started writing on the paper again.

"Mission Objective 2: Find and defeat Countess Lislina..."

It's still the listing method.

The general mission objectives have been clarified; the only difference lies in the wording.

Once the countess's real name is known, the mission details become much easier to guess.

As for why there was no hint from Mission Objective 2 when Dekan and his group bumped into Lislina earlier.

the reason is simple.

They lacked a rigorous investigation process and reasoning steps, so the Shadow World could not determine whether they had truly confirmed the identity of the ultimate enemy.

If the information in the Shadow World is refreshed directly, it's equivalent to confirming and verifying the identity of the final powerful enemy for the challenger.

This is the consequence of skipping too many steps.

Even the Shadow World cannot determine whether or not to display hidden missions.

However, having mastered the sentence structure for mission objective 3, Dekan quickly figured out the correct answer:

[Mission Objective 2: Investigate the vampires' conspiracy and find and defeat Countess Lislina, who is hiding in the city. If this mission fails, Countess Lislina will be teleported to random coordinates in the challenger's original world after the mission time limit expires.]

Meanwhile, the other challengers also received this notification.

Hehehe...

Dekan couldn't help but chuckle softly.

Presumably, Countess Lislina has also begun her sting operation at this moment.

Those greedy Resurrected cultists, seeing the notification that the Shadow World has refreshed, will surely think that tonight, at this very moment, a challenger has made great progress on mission objective 2!

It's very likely that the mission is nearing completion.

When they first saw the Shadow World's hint that the final enemy was the "Countess".

They also discovered that a patrol of knights was chasing a heavily wounded and weakened female vampire in the city-state.

What will they think?

Without a doubt, the opportunity to recruit people and take advantage of any loopholes has arrived.

This is a golden opportunity to increase your rewards in the Shadow World.

They wouldn't suspect it was a trap.

Humans may be colluding with vampires to set a trap.

Neither humans nor vampires could possibly collude with the Shadow World!

After all, the hints from the film world must be objective and reliable.

The ones chasing the female vampire are regular knights from the city-state.

Those who noticed the resurrected believers would not let this opportunity pass and would certainly rush forward to provide support.

Try to catch the vampire.

Then they will be disappointed to find that this is not the countess they are looking for, but merely her entourage.

But soon a knight would tell them that the lord had an urgent matter to discuss with them, and that there would be a huge reward and information involving the Countess.

Next, they will be taken to the lord's manor and ambushed.

There was no chance of escape.

"Thank you, Shadow World, your public channel is really useful."

Dekan added another sentence next to the correct answer.

I don't know if I can see it in the movie world.

But he was already looking forward to his comments when the results were released.

Seeing that Dekan had finished his work, Morion put away his paper and pen.

Morion then wrote on the paper:

"Alright, it's time to rest. Teacher Cat and I will keep watch for the first half of the night, and you guys keep watch for the second half."

It was shown to Dekan Cornelia, who was sprawled on the sofa.
