Keep attacking girls and try not to be killed by them

9.234 - Adding fuel to the fire

The night was hazy and the sky was turning pale.

The Dove-Winged Man Tetodaf was flying rapidly in the sky, looking at the rising sun on the distant horizon, and knew that he had spent another sleepless night.

At this moment, in order to rush to the "Post Office Branch" of the Vanya Emirate as soon as possible to confirm the situation, Tetodaf is heading at full speed to the underground "Millennium Cicada Monkey" passage.

However, just as Tetodaf flew over the primeval forest, the magic stone alarm device on his body sounded.

The "beep-beep-beep" alarm sounded particularly harsh in the silent night sky. After hearing it, Tetodaf did not stop flapping his wings immediately, but only slowed down his flying speed.

——(This alarm hasn't sounded in a while... Did 'Xiao Hei' bring 'food' into the base again?)

Tetodaf hesitated because his tamed monster, the Little Black Water Dragon, would sometimes bring living prey into the base as food reserves, and these reserves would often run around in the base, causing the magic detection devices he installed in the base to frequently give false alarms.

Although Tetodaff has educated the little black water dragon many times, this guy still causes trouble for Tetodaff from time to time.

If it weren't for the little black water dragon's irreplaceable ability to fly at high speed at night, Tetodaf would have gotten rid of it long ago.

Now, Tetodav is about to reach the location of the "Millennium Cicada Monkey". It would be too time-consuming for him to go back and confirm whether there is anything wrong with the secret base.

——(Never mind, even if there really are intruders, they will be marked... I should check the post office first.)

After making up his mind, Tetodaf folded his wings onto his back and free-falled towards the forest below.

Afterwards, Tetodaf easily found the underground passage of the "Millennium Cicada Monkey" and arrived at the post office branch of the Vanya Emirate at dawn.

·

As soon as he arrived at the post office branch, Tetodaff was shocked by the scene. The post office branch, which was supposed to be "peaceful", was now in a mess after a fierce battle.

Was this painstakingly hidden Zhaoye Liuque Intelligence Center really discovered by the enemy?

Without thinking too much, Tetodav lifted his hood to reveal his identity, strode into the post office, and found the director to confirm the situation.

The director gave a concise report. Every word he said was like a knife piercing Tetodaf's heart, making the face of the chief master of Zhaoye Liuque even paler.

Tetodav did not expect that things would really develop in the worst direction. The enemy not only discovered the truth about the post office branch, but also carried out several professional infiltrations.

Although according to the current inspection results, the enemy did not take away any information, but Tetodav and his team have no way of knowing what the enemy obtained in this infiltration operation.

What made Tetodaf even more distressed was that after being invaded this time, they hadn't even been able to grasp the enemy's identity! If this were to get out, it would be a complete disgrace to Zhaoye Liuque!

"Block the news and restore this place to its original state as soon as possible. Do you understand?"

"clear."

"Give me as soon as you have gathered all the clues about the enemy."

"I have urgently written a draft about this. Please take a look."

The "Postmaster"'s work always surprised Tetodaf. In the entire Zhaoye Liuque, no one could make Tetodaf feel as at ease as he did.

Tetodav couldn't wait to take the report and quickly read through it.

This report collected the most valuable clues and details about last night's intrusion, including not only descriptions of the invaders' appearance, but also records of the characteristics of the skills they used.

While reading the report, Tetodav searched his memory for a matching target, and when he finished reading the report, he already had the answer in his mind.

"Bost, my opinion is consistent with your speculation."

Tetodaff's eyes rested on the preliminary conclusion written by the postmaster, Bost. His trusted subordinate believed that the enemy who attacked the post office branch last night was most likely the cat-people's intelligence organization, "Cicada".

·

As the most prestigious intelligence organization in the area surrounding the Kingdom of West, Zhaoye Liuque not only possesses important information about the leaders of major countries, but also keeps a close eye on its peers.

Although Zhaoye Liuque's understanding of Xianchan is not yet complete, with the clues from last night as reasoning material, it is not difficult to lock onto Xianchan.

This is not the fault of the people of Xianchan for not acting carefully enough, it can only be said that Zhaoye Liuque's intelligence database is too extensive.

However, even though the suspect was identified so quickly, Tetodaff was not at all happy, because to him, these were all natural things - what Tetodaff really cared about now was actually something else important.

·

First it was the Spiral Underground Library, then the Intelligence Center and Post Office Branch. In just less than half a month, two important organizations of Zhaoye Liuque were invaded one after another, and both were extremely secretive organizations.

Regarding this situation, Tetodav could only conclude that the once indestructible internal cohesion of Teruya Ryuque had now begun to crack.

If no internal members had leaked the organization's confidential information to outsiders, Zhaoye Liuque would never have been invaded so frequently.

——(A major overhaul...seems imminent.)

Tetoduff looked at the postmaster Bost in front of him and even had a hint of doubt about him in his heart.

Regarding the encrypted letter that was suspected to have been opened once, Tetodav did not choose to confirm it with Bost at this time, but hid the matter first.

However, Tetodav's suspicion of Bost was merely psychological, so it quickly vanished. A seasoned leader like Tetodav would not lose his composure because of a momentary confusion.

If even a confidant like Bost cannot be trusted, then Tetodaf might as well disband Teruya Ryuque.

"Bost, your speculation results will remain confidential for the time being. Tell me what you have to do and do it as soon as possible. I have to leave now."

Tetoduff gave Bost a brief explanation and then left the post office branch in the same hurry as he had come.

In his secret base in the Kingdom of West, there was an alarm waiting for him to deal with, which he didn't know whether it was a false alarm or not.

8:35 AM

[Death Future Remaining: 5 Days]

[Confession death countdown remaining: 25 days]

"Curse of the Ancestral Wolf: 71 Days Remaining"

━━━━━━━━━━

When Tetodav returned to the sky above the secret base, it was already dawn.

This tireless Jiuyi man temporarily lost the ability to think because the scene he saw was too exaggerated.

The hill where Tetodav's secret base was located was still peaceful and lush when he left, but now it was a tragic scene after an earthquake.

In such a terrible situation, it was obvious that Tetodaff's secret base hidden in the hills could not remain immune. When he thought of the huge losses he might suffer, Tetodaff felt like his head was about to explode...!

9.235 - Personally

"Calm down, Tetoduff."

Just when his emotions were about to get out of control, the Dove-Winged Man Tetodaf suddenly started talking to himself.

The "words" spoken out loud are different from the "thoughts" only in the mind. When "consciousness" is transformed into sound and then transmitted to the ears, it has a different "magic".

Just by hearing such a simple sentence, Tetodav, who was on the verge of emotional breakdown, immediately regained his usual composure.

"Yeah, there's nothing to panic about. At least I'm not dead yet."

While telling himself this, Tetodaf flapped his wings and flew towards another hill not far away.

When his secret base was attacked, he chose to find another observation point to confirm what had happened.

Tetoduff wouldn't make such a low-level mistake as "foolishly running directly to the crime scene."

·

After landing, Tetodav quickly hid himself in the woods, and then began to carefully observe the situation in his secret base.

He could now clearly see that the hill where the secret base was located was full of cracks, and the trees growing on the hill had also suffered varying degrees of damage.

From the damage to the trees, Tetodav discovered that these trees did not seem to have been knocked down by an earthquake, but rather seemed to have been knocked down by some "huge object".

After making this assumption, Tetodav re-examined the cracks on the hill and gradually began to feel that the scene before him did not seem like the result of an earthquake.

——(Could it be... some giant monster came here and caused a ruckus?)

After Tetodav began to think about it, he felt more and more that his new inference was correct.

Whether it is the impact marks left on the hills or the "paths" in the woods that are suspected to have been trampled by giant creatures, these all coincide with Tetodav's new inference.

Not long after, Tetodav saw decisive evidence in the woods on the hills after the disaster - he found a few scattered "shield-like objects" on the ground.

·

If it were an ordinary person, there would be no way to see clearly what is on the opposite hill at this distance, but Tetodaf is different. As a Dove Winged Man, he has extraordinary eyesight and can dynamically adjust the focus of his eyes to observe things in the distance.

After magnifying and observing, he was surprised to find that those "shield-like things" were most likely the scales of a giant snake monster. If his speculation was correct, then the culprit that destroyed his secret base was this giant snake monster.

As this speculation took shape, Tetodav had two new questions.

The first question is why would the giant snake monster attack a hill?

The second question is, are the hills safe now?

In order to solve these two problems, Tetodav had to investigate closer to the hill where the incident occurred, and a closer distance meant greater risk.

Usually at times like this, Tetodav would call his men to do dangerous things, but today's situation was rather special, so he was not very willing to use his usual methods.

·

What is special about today's situation is that the target to be investigated is Tetodav's own secret base, which is also one of the several hiding places he often uses.

If he called in his men to investigate, it would undoubtedly expose Tetoduff's own secrets.

Until ten days ago, Tetodav was not actually worried that his subordinates would leak information, but the recent continuous infiltration of the organization under Teruya Ryuque had caused a rift in his trust in the members of the organization.

Therefore, at this critical moment when there seemed to be a fire in the backyard, Tetodav thought about it again and again, and finally decided to take action himself to prevent the problems within the organization from getting bigger and bigger.

"It's okay, Tetoduff, you can do this."

Tetodav's verbal self-suggestion continues, in this way he can keep his mental and physical condition at the best level.

Since he succeeded Zhaoye Liuque as the chief hall master, he has seen all kinds of storms, so he will definitely be able to get through this time smoothly.

"That's right, Tetodav. Ultimately, everything comes down to three steps: 'understanding,' 'thinking,' and 'solving.' From then on, we just have to follow the steps."

After mumbling to himself to cheer himself up, Tetodaf stopped talking to himself and his expression became solemn.

He put on a hood, hid his body in the cloak, and ran towards the hill where the secret base was located at great speed.

·

As a winged man, Tetodav not only has a very fast flying speed, but also has an amazing speed when running on foot.

The winged man was like a flash of black lightning. In the blink of an eye, he ran from one hill to the foot of another hill, and the whole process was silent.

During this sprint, Tetoduff discovered the expected "snake trail" - that is, a path where snakes crawled.

Generally speaking, the paths left by snakes can only be found on soft soil, but the snake that Tetodaf dealt with this time was not an ordinary one. It was a giant snake that was huge enough to destroy the hilly terrain, so as long as this guy crawled on the ground, it would definitely leave traces.

Tetodav saw that the snake trail left by the giant snake monster was more than one meter wide, which meant that the snake's body diameter reached more than two meters!

The number two meters is used to represent the body length of ordinary snakes, but on this giant snake monster, it is only the diameter!

At this moment, Tetodav already knew that he could not defeat this giant snake monster. His combat profession was good at infiltration and fighting against human targets. When encountering such a giant monster, he had no choice but to escape.

—(Snakes… could they be the Snake Shadow Society…? No, they have no grudges against us. With their shrewd ways, they wouldn’t do something so unreasonable…)

Tetodav swallowed and continued to head towards the secret base carefully.

After many twists and turns, Tetodav finally arrived at his destination. He was heartbroken to see that the rock wall where the "Invisible Door" was originally installed had completely collapsed. The secret base inside the rock wall must have suffered heavy losses.

After confirming that there was no danger around, Tetodav began to move the fallen rocks with his bare hands. Don't be fooled by his thin, tall and weak appearance. The physical fitness of a level 6, level 270 combat professional has exceeded the general physical cognition and has extraordinary muscle density.

Soon, Tetodav cleared a passage that was barely accessible. After entering the secret base, the first thing he confirmed was not the loss of intelligence assets, but the secret magical device that could "sow" the "mark".

[Note: For details on the "mark", see chapter 9.234 - Adding Fuel to the Fire]

Tetodav held the device and operated it skillfully. After a few seconds, the small device lit up with green fluorescence.

——(Great, it still works!)

Tetodav was extremely delighted. The fact that this device was still usable meant that he could find all the invaders who had been "marked" with it!

9.236 - Underground Serpent

The secret magical device that Tetodaf is currently using is called the "Mark Sower". It is a device that can assimilate itself with the surrounding environment and attach a "magic mark" to all creatures that appear within a five-meter range of itself.
