……
at the same time.
Ancheng Safe Community.
While staying at home, Fan Xiao received a message from a "sibling" born in the same year and month.
Mammon's men have already departed by train and will arrive in Division 010 in a few hours.
The "siblings born in the same year and month" possessed a guide tool that allowed them to precisely navigate the area inside the vehicle after jumping out, so Fan Xiao wasn't worried about how this group of B-level players would get to his side.
After packing his clothes and taking the assassination list, he headed ahead of time to the meeting place he had chosen.
However, an unexpected event occurred—he had only just left the neighborhood and hadn't gone far when he bumped into someone who surprised him greatly.
Chapter 392 The Vase-like Old Si Ji Makes a Comeback
The neighborhood around the safe community is quiet with few offices. Increasing the complexity of the environment would indirectly increase the difficulty of security, so this can be considered a concession.
Just a short distance away from the residential area, the surrounding commercial district offers excellent amenities, with a vibrant and bustling atmosphere right in front of you – a compromise, in a way.
Fan Xiao did not call a car, but used the B-level item "Mirror" to travel directly.
The next second, he emerged from the mirror world and arrived at the edge of the plaza in front of the large shopping mall—he emerged from a mirror formed by a car window.
Even with illusions surrounding him, he wasn't afraid of frightening passersby and causing panic.
That's the downside of using mirror teleportation; you have to repeatedly go in and out.
At this moment, the plaza in front of the mall was very lively. It was unclear whether there was a performance or some other event, but pedestrians from all around had gathered around.
Fan Xiao glanced at it briefly and then ignored it.
Although he has a natural inclination to join in the fun, he needs to restrain himself now that there is serious business to attend to.
Fan Xiao communicated with the props again, preparing to enter the mirror.
Just then, a voice as elegant and gentle as a moon lute called out to him: "Darling, here, I'm here."
The crowd made way for them.
Fan Xiao turned his head and looked at the end of the road, where he saw two tall women walking over—the Holy Maiden of the Heavenly Righteousness Sect and her bodyguard, Miss Ying.
At this moment, the saintess was not wearing her usual dark nun's robes, but instead wore a layered long dress and a plain-colored coat with lace and retro prints, creating a forest-like atmosphere. After shedding the sacred feeling of the nun's robes, she had a gentle and approachable older sister vibe.
However, this girl next door is quite sensual. Even though her outfit is a loose A-line style that fits the Mori Girl aesthetic, casual and relaxed, and doesn't accentuate her figure, somehow it still makes people's imaginations run wild, making them want to peek at the alluring curves hidden under the loose clothes.
That perfect face, as if kissed by an angel, unconsciously evokes feelings of infatuation.
Wanting to have her, wanting to possess her, even at the cost of one's life... just by gazing at her, the seeds of such feelings are sown.
Miss Sakura, standing to the side, seemed much more normal. She was half a head taller than the Saintess, slender with long legs, and dressed in tight-fitting, combat-ready clothing. Her face was as cold as ice, devoid of any cute expression.
The pairing of the two is like a volcano and an iceberg, with completely different styles.
After the saint's cry faded, the people who had gathered in the square, regardless of gender, all subconsciously felt an unpleasantness—an unpleasantness stemming from jealousy.
He was already very jealous, and now he was on the verge of exploding with rage.
Who is it?! Who is it that, with all their virtues and abilities, can make this perfect goddess call out "darling"?
They all turned their heads, their sharp eyes following the saintess's gaze—Fan Xiao was shrouded in illusion, so they naturally saw nothing.
The people who turned around were all stunned, their expressions becoming confused, and some didn't understand.
"..."
Fan Xiao created a new illusion that enveloped the saintess.
At the same time, he activated the "Land of the Fallen Gods" domain, enveloping the gathered crowd and permanently erasing their memories of the saintess, stripping them of their impressions.
The next second, the crowd seemed momentarily dazed before dispersing to go about their own business: some left, some went into the mall, and some took photos.
It's not that Fan Xiao also fell for the saintess's tricks and wanted to completely possess this "perfect" woman, even depriving others of the right to fantasize about her in their minds.
The assassination attempt is imminent, and since this place is close to his home, he can't afford any disturbances that could lead to unforeseen circumstances.
After finishing these tasks, Fan Xiao turned his gaze to the approaching Saintess Qiu Yue and Ying, and asked, "Why did you come here?"
He was really surprised.
As for the fact that the Holy Maiden could see through his illusions, he was not surprised at all.
This woman's talent... or psychic abilities, has always been a mystery. She also possesses a tool that can predict the future. Compared to these, seeing through illusions is nothing.
B-rank players with mental talents, psionic abilities, or corresponding amplification items can generally see through Yan Keke's illusions.
Yan Keke is currently only a D-rank dungeon boss; her basic stats are what they are, so we can't expect too much from her...
and many more!
Predicting the future...
Fan Xiao seemed to be deep in thought.
After scrutinizing the saintess a few times, he had a feeling that she was probably trying to get some benefits from him again.
That's how it was in Roman City.
The woman inexplicably showed him an overwhelming level of affection when they first met, leaving him puzzled as to why.
Moreover, this goodwill is not just lip service—the batch of fantasy materials bought at a low price is currently in Zone 010, being used to build a safe zone.
It can be said that the saintess gave him face commensurate with her "favorability".
It turned out that this woman not only didn't suffer a loss, but actually made a fortune!
He eliminated her enemies, made Teacher Tina take the blame, and her papal candidate faction won the final victory effortlessly.
Now, this woman has come close to him again...
“Honey, your eyes tell me you’re thinking something that’s really rude to me.”
The saintess revealed a melancholy expression that could even move a devil to pity, and said, "I am here entirely because of longing. Xiao, do you think it's been so long since we last saw each other? I just came to see you."
What did you see from the future?
Fan Xiao ignored her flirtatious remarks and went straight to the point.
"You've really misunderstood me, Xiao." The saintess said pitifully, "Alas... do I have to rip my heart out for you to see before you'll believe me?"
“Okay,” Fan Xiao nodded. “Go ahead and take it. Anyway, a B-level player won’t die just from having their heart removed.”
"...Hehe, darling, you're really good at joking."
"So, are you going to pick it or not?"
"Picking it myself... that's too scary, can you help me?"
The saintess stood upright, her two breasts high and prominent, pushing up her loose outer garment.
It's as if they're deliberately revealing the location of their heart.
What's in my heart? Those who know, know.
“Okay, that works too,” Fan Xiao said. “Then take off your clothes first. Don’t worry, no one around can see us, so we can be more open and bold.”
Upon hearing this, Sakura, who was standing to the side, frowned slightly.
The saintess's eye twitched almost imperceptibly.
She waved her hand and said, "No, how can a girl do such a thing in the street?"
"Oh, then let's get a room. The night is long, let's take our time."
"..."
"What, Miss Saintess, you're unwilling? Don't you like me anymore? Have you fallen for someone else?"
"How could that be? Darling, it's just... I'm a slow starter, you know. You have to be gentler with me and put in more effort. If things continue like this, you might lose me."
After making a few words, the saintess quickly changed the subject, saying, "About the future... tools for seeing the future have side effects, so you can't use them at will."
"Moreover, I can't easily see the complete future trajectory."
"However, there's one thing I can tell you..."
She paused for a moment, then smiled gently and said, "I'm here to help you out; consider it a way of repaying you for the help you gave me back then."
"You seem to be planning something big lately and are short-handed, right?"
"There are two B-level players here who you can drive for free... oh no, I mean 'command'."
"..." Fan Xiao asked, "Intelligence seen from the future?"
“Darling, I can only see the future that concerns me personally, not that of others.”
"Oh, I believe you. Do you believe I believe you too?"
"..."
The saintess said helplessly, "Mammon has been making some moves lately."
"And then you guessed it was me?" Fan Xiao said. "Then I think you're more suited to be a detective than a saint."
Upon hearing this, the Holy Maiden knew that if she didn't reveal some decent information, she probably wouldn't be able to get away with it.
She composed herself, pursed her lips slightly, and said with a hint of jealousy, "A great beauty is coming to see you soon, darling. Don't get so caught up in her charms that you forget about me and Xiaoying."
"Your nose is really sharp..." Fan Xiao couldn't help but mutter to himself.
Just as he guessed, this woman had most likely seen a vision of his cheap senior sister's future, but he didn't know what her purpose was... Never mind, the assassination mission is the priority now, so he wouldn't pursue this matter for the time being.
Thinking of this, Fan Xiao let the matter drop and changed the subject, asking, "Can you control this... um, alluring state of yours? This place is very close to my home, so we can't have any disturbances for now, otherwise, an accident might delay my important business."
"Is that so... It seems I caused you trouble just now."
The saintess said with a hint of self-reproach, "I've heard that having a woman that everyone wants can perfectly satisfy a man's vanity... Oh dear, I really meant well but did something wrong."
"Darling, please forgive me this time. I will make it up to you passionately in the future."
"So, is there a way to control it?" Fan Xiao automatically filtered out her flirtatious remarks.
"Yes, it is, but it's very uncomfortable and makes me feel insecure. However..."
The saintess once again revealed her captivating smile and said, "Since you've spoken up, my dear, I can endure all of this for your sake."
After saying that, she looked at her slender, white fingers, took off one of the three rings she was wearing, and put it into her storage space.
At that moment, Fan Xiao felt his urge to possess the saintess lessen.
Although her perfect figure remained as stunning as ever, the allure she exuded had probably diminished by half.
In comparison... before, he needed Yan Keke's connection to completely avoid the bewitching influence of the Holy Maiden, but now, he can barely defend himself with his own mental strength.
He would only think the saintess was beautiful—that's an objective fact—but that wouldn't generate much further affection from her.
His mental defense is close to that of an A-level player... so the current Saintess is still breathtakingly beautiful.
Fan Xiao had some doubts about this woman's talent... or psychic abilities, which might be related to the concept of "beauty".
"That ring was an item; its passive effect amplifies my traits."
The saintess offered an explanation.
Then she flipped her wrist, and her fair, delicate hand opened, revealing an ugly ghost mask in her palm.
After putting on a mask and covering her flawless face, her allure diminished considerably.
Only when looking at her body can one subconsciously imagine what beautiful curves are hidden beneath her clothes...
"That's enough. This mask is a C-grade item. The person wearing it will leave an impression of being ugly."
The saintess explained again, then said pitifully, "Xiao, for you, I even took off my permanent equipment. If we encounter any danger, you must protect me well."
"Then tell me, are you here to be my helper, or to be a burden that drags me down?"
Fan Xiao asked very directly.
The saintess was a little confused by what she had just heard, and said in a resentful tone, "Xiao... you're really going to lose me if you keep doing this."
"What exactly is your talent... or psionic ability?"
Fan Xiao didn't respond to her question, but instead asked a question that had always intrigued him: "I've never heard of a player being unable to control their power, so... this shouldn't be some kind of charm ability, right?"
"She's just too beautiful."
