"Sorry for the long wait, Xiao Liuli, is there anything else you would like to know?"

Old Mr. Aldi handed a roll of parchment to Shiiki Ruri accurately.

Although it was not the first time that Shiiki Ruri had seen the old man's skills, he was still secretly amazed in his heart, wondering how a blind person could control the distance so accurately?

"Thanks, meow, I'll take a look!"

Shiiki Ruri couldn't wait to open the parchment scroll. She first quickly glanced through it, and then calmed down and read it carefully word by word.

·

Overall, the level of detail in the identification information provided by Mr. Aldi was far superior to the previous version. Not to mention the omissions, he even marked out some blind spots that Shiiki Ruri had not thought of.

In the results given by the unknown appraiser previously, there were many unclear statements. For example, when playing "Moon Shadow Dragon Roar", it was said that the audience's vigilance could be reduced, but the specific mechanism of the influence was not explained at all.

In Mr. Aldi's identification information, this skill is described in great detail.

First of all, this skill is called "Mesmerizing Sounds", and its effective radius is ten meters, and it is ineffective for people with hearing impairments.

During the skill, the user consumes 50 points of magic power per second, which can reduce the comprehensive resistance of all listeners, including the user, at a rate of 50 points per second, and can even reduce it to a negative number.

For every 10 seconds the user plays, the negative effects after the performance will last for one more second. What's even more amazing is that the skill "Mesmerizing Sound" has no usage time limit and no cooldown time. As long as the user has enough magic power, he can play it forever.

Next is another equipment skill of "Moon Shadow Dragon Roar", called "Bone Erosion and Heart Piercing".

The skill "Bone Erosion" has no cooldown time and can only be used when "Moon Shadow Dragon Roar" is activated in dagger mode. The specific effect is to consume 200 points of the user's magic power to cause damage to the target based on the user's magic attack power, and leave a "Bone Erosion Mark" on the target that lasts for 30 seconds and can be infinitely stacked.

Then here comes the key point. When using the "Bone Erosion" skill to cause damage to a target with a "Bone Erosion Mark", the damage value caused will be the number of "Bone Erosion Marks" multiplied by the corresponding multiple of "2".

As a boss lady who manages the accounts herself, Shiiki Ruri has a certain sensitivity to numbers.

According to the calculation method of this "Bone Piercing" skill, even if her first attack only caused 100 points of damage, if she could stab three times in a row in an instant, the total damage value of the three attacks combined would reach a staggering 700 points!

Even though there is only a difference of 100 between 700 and 600, this skill is calculated based on a multiplier. The seven times damage is shocking no matter what level of skill it is compared with!

What's even more terrifying is that each "Bone Erosion Mark" can last for 30 seconds. If Shiki Ruri can cause damage for the fourth time before these "Bone Erosion Marks" disappear, then the single damage will be 600 points, and the next damage will be 800 points... No wonder the appraiser said that the second skill can cause the target to die quickly after continuously inflicting poison on the target during the first appraisal many years ago.

——(With these two skills, maybe... I can really defeat Tetoduff-nyan by surprise...!)

·

After reading the appraisal results given by Mr. Aldi, Shiiki Ruri's originally uneasy heart felt a little relieved.

Before coming here, Shiiki Ruri couldn't imagine herself defeating Tetodaf, but now, she even has an idea of ​​the battle plan.

With Shiiki Ruri's own fourth-level strength, as long as she can let Tetodaf listen to the performance for one or two minutes, she can easily reduce Tetodaf's comprehensive resistance to negative numbers. Then, the magic damage type "Bone Erosion and Heart Piercing" skill can cause maximum damage to Tetodaf at this time.

Shiiki Ruri estimated that she only needed to stab Tetodav three times at most to kill him completely - even if these three stabs were only on Tetodav's toes.

"Thank you, Mr. Aldi, you've been so helpful, meow...!"

Shiiki Ruri casually threw the parchment scroll into the fireplace and burned it. As for the secret of the "White Jade Flute Dagger·Moon Shadow Dragon Roar", it was enough for her and Mr. Aldi to know it.

"Hehehe, you're welcome, little Liuli."

Old Mr. Aldi sat down with a smile. Although he closed his eyes, he still "looked" at where Shiiki Ruri was standing.

The elderly gentleman sat in silence for a while, and then before Shiiki Ruri could say goodbye, he told her the instructions he had been preparing for a long time.

"Little Liuli, I know you're almost gone. Before you go, this old man of yours wants to say one last thing to you... No matter what the reason for Aunt Magai's death, she would have hoped that you could live well. This is more important than anything else."

Mr. Aldi didn't say everything, because he knew he couldn't change a person who had made up his mind.

However, even if it could slightly influence Xiao Liuli's next actions, Mr. Aldi felt that he had to say these words.

After listening to what Mr. Aldi said, Shiiki Ruri was stunned for a moment. She was really surprised that the old man could even notice her mood of going to death.

However, risking her life to avenge Aunt Magee was not Shiiki Ruri's first choice. After learning about the power of "Moon Shadow Dragon Roar", she felt that she had more than a 50% chance of winning...!

9.258 - Counterattack Strategy

"Thank you, meow, Mr. Aldi..."

Shiiki Ruri expressed her gratitude to Mr. Aldi from the bottom of her heart. She knew that the old man was really worried about her.

Then, just as the old man did not say everything clearly, Shiiki Ruri also chose to respond in an obscure way.

"Don't worry, I will take good care of myself, meow. Also, you old man, please take care of yourself, meow, because I will come to you for help in identification again in the future~"

Implicit in these simple words was Shiiki Ruri's answer to Mr. Aldi.

In this way, she told the old man that not only would she not die, but she would come to him for help again, and hoped that the old man would live a long life.

When Mr. Aldi heard Xiao Liuli's answer, he didn't say anything more.

At his age, he understands better than anyone that "life in this world is not just about doing the right thing." Sometimes, even though you know it is wrong to do something, you still have to bite the bullet and give it a try.

In addition, taking a step back, the "White Jade Flute Dagger·Moon Shadow Dragon Roar" also contains Magai's feelings for Xiao Liuli. If something really happens, Mr. Aldi believes that Xiao Liuli can also escape danger with the help of this weapon.

——(Little Liuli, I give you all my luck, and pray that you can return safely.)

Mr. Aldi silently offered his blessings to Xiao Liuli in his heart, and Xiao Liuli, as usual, stuffed the appraisal fee into Mr. Aldi's hand and then formally said goodbye to him.

"I'm leaving now, Mr. Aldi. See you next time, meow~"

"See you next time, Xiao Liuli."

·

When leaving the stone hut, Shiiki Ruri's steps were light.

After thoroughly understanding the skill mechanism of "White Jade Flute Dagger·Moon Shadow Dragon Roar", she finally knew how to defeat Tetodaf.

However, knowing is one thing, and many things can only be seen by the eyes and understood by the brain, but the body has its own unique ideas.

In order not to let down at the critical moment, and since Shiiki Ruri really didn't know where Tetodaf was, the cat-man girl decided to go back to Mel Town to catch up on some sleep, and then begin intensive special training in "Moon Shadow Dragon Roar".

[Death Future Remaining: 4 Days]

[Confession death countdown remaining: 24 days]

"Curse of the Ancestral Wolf: 70 Days Remaining"

━━━━━━━━━━

I can't sleep. I can't sleep at all.

After returning to Mel Town, Shiiki Ruri wanted to take a nap to recover some magic power, but she was so excited that she couldn't calm down at all. In the end, she drank a bottle of sleeping potion and asked the neighbor's aunt to wake her up at the appointed time.

Affected by the side effects of the hypnotic drug, Shiiki Ruri felt dizzy after waking up.

She walked around Mel Town twice, enjoying the cool early autumn breeze for a while, and finally gradually regained consciousness.

——(Why haven't I seen Sir Frostmail Knight yet...did he go to another town?)

Shiiki Ruri couldn't help but think of Mr. Stan from time to time.

This was not just because she was in a difficult situation and needed help, nor was it because she wanted to hear Lord Stan's opinion on how she would resolve the crisis of the second-hand dealers. In a corner of her heart, Shiiki Ruri simply wanted to meet Lord Stan, the Frost Knight.

As for why she had such thoughts and feelings, the naive cat-girl couldn't figure it out for the time being, nor did she have the mind to think about it.

With a "Pa!" sound, Shiiki Ruri slapped herself on the cheek without mercy, thus waking herself from her weak mood.

Ever since Aunt Magee passed away, Shiiki Ruri has decided not to rely on others, and she has indeed done so.

But unexpectedly, before she knew it, Lord Stan, the Frost Armor Knight who seemed to have fallen from the sky, had made her feel attached to him again.

Shiiki Ruri told herself that she must make adjustments as soon as possible and return to an independent and self-reliant mental state, otherwise she would not be able to face Tetodaf alone next time.

Then, as if to carry out this determination, Shiiki Ruri slapped her cheeks three times in a row, leaving red palm prints on her originally fair cheeks... If someone who didn't know the situation saw it, they would definitely think that she was slapped twice.

Now, the feeling of pain made Shiiki Ruri extremely sober. She strode out of the town, found an empty place in the suburbs, and began to practice the "Moon Shadow Dragon Roar".

·

·

At the same time, in a secret stronghold closest to the Night Crying Mountains, the chief hall master of Zhaoye Liuque, Tetodaf, had just formulated a specific strategy for the counterattack.

Tetodav was well aware of the Snake Shadow Society's strength and knew that a war with them would be difficult to end. However, they, the Zhaoye Liuque, had already been bullied to this extent by the Snake Shadow Society. Could he have the nerve to ask the Snake Shadow Society, "Why are you fighting us? Is there some misunderstanding between us?"

If that were the case, then his name wouldn't be Tetoduff.

Tetodav has been struggling in the dark world for decades. He knows very well that real negotiations are never achieved through words, but through real fighting.

In the world of Prison Star, dignity lies only on the blade, and truth is only within the range of Pyroblast!

If Tetodaf doesn't strike back fiercely against the Snake Shadow Society now and let the Snake Shadow Society know that Zhaoye Liuque is not easy to mess with, the Snake Shadow Society will soon ride on his head and shit on him.

By then, what kind of negotiations can I have as a human toilet?

Therefore, Tetodav will next gather the strongest fighting force of Zhaoye Liuque to hit the weak spot of the Snake Shadow Society - after all, they are all organizations in the dark world, so the only option in a fight is backstabbing.

·

After a night of thinking, Tetodaf chose the Snake Shadow Society's secret base on the border of the Farnas Empire as the target of attack in this counterattack.

According to Zhao Ye Liuque's previous investigation intelligence, the defense force of that stronghold was mainly composed of local tiger people, and only a few were native members of the Snake Shadow Society.

As for the Tiger People who worked for the Snake Shadow Society, they were actually all deceived by the Snake Shadow Society, and the relevant evidence has been obtained by Zhaoye Liuque.

As long as Tetodaf arranges people to spread some appropriate information and win over some tiger people to act as insiders, it will take less than one night for Zhaoye Liuque to destroy the Snake Shadow Society's stronghold.

By then, the Snake Shadow Society will not only lose a powerful stronghold, but will also have to face the counterattack of the Tiger People. Such a scorching "fire in the backyard" will surely be very "painful".

Tetodav couldn't help laughing when he thought about the chaos within the top management of the Snake Shadow Society.

In order to make this future come sooner, Tetodaf began to draft an encrypted letter, summoning all the branch masters of Zhaoye Liuque to an emergency meeting.

9.259 - A last-ditch strategy

The secret intelligence organization Teruya Ryuque has four branches:

Zhaotang;

Night Hall;

Liutang;

Bird Hall;

The leader of the Terudou sect, codenamed "Dark Moon", is a burly werewolf uncle with long silver-gray hair and a beard. He was almost rejected from joining the Teruye Liuque sect because of his handsome appearance.

The head of the Night Hall, codenamed "Phantom Flame", is an old but spirited fox-man grandmother. She always carries a magic wand inlaid with various gemstones as a cane, and wears a lavender hooded magic robe to cover her pointed fox ears and fluffy fox tail.

The head of Liutang Hall is the sister of Shiiki Ruri, who is already very familiar to everyone. Her code name is "Swift Shadow", which fully reflects her agile skills that can move like the wind.

As for the final leader of the Sparrow Hall, he was a rat-man grandfather, codenamed "Ghost Words." He appeared to be a petite, dainty old man, but his combat skills, which belied his appearance, were so impressive that he could manipulate his foes with ease. Furthermore, he was the only member of the Zhaoye Liuque Clan to possess the "Divine Martial Power."

Tetoduff quickly wrote the encrypted letter and then personally delivered the four letters using Steel Owl.

After finishing this task, Tetodav, who was originally a little excited, gradually calmed down. He was no longer blindly optimistic, but began to worry about the difficulties he might face.

·

Although this counterattack operation is not complicated overall, when it comes to implementation, there are countless details that need to be considered.

It was because Tetodav began to think about these details that he became worried.

As mentioned earlier, the location chosen by Tetodaf for the surprise attack this time was the Snake Shadow Society's secret base located on the border of the Farnas Empire.

He chose this place for two main reasons:

1. Close enough;

Second, there is a fatal weakness;

Geographical proximity meant a shorter timeframe. Tetodav believed that only by seizing the moment when Snake Shadow was attacking Zhaoye Liuque and himself could he unexpectedly inflict maximum damage on the enemy and minimize the difficulty of the attack.

The so-called "fatal weakness" refers to the fact that this stronghold is mainly composed of deceived tiger people. As long as Tetodaf's strategy of alienation can be successfully implemented, these tiger people who are supposed to be enemies will instantly become the most effective allies.

[Note: The screenshot above is from chapter 6.47 - Heloise's Past.] If you want to learn more about the background story of the Khajiit territory, you can also go back to that chapter and read it again.

Generally speaking, enemy organizations with fatal weaknesses like this are easy for Tetodaf to capture, and strategic thinking can end at this step. However, this time the enemy organization is the Snake Shadow Society, so Tetodaf must be extremely cautious.

——(The Tiger People are all muscle-brained, hot-blooded fellows. As long as we reveal the truth to them indirectly, I believe it won't be difficult to persuade them to switch sides...)
