Chapter 170: Dekan's Classic Phishing Enforcement |
“Yes, Lord Marquis.”
Lilislina curtsied to Morion like a professional maid, went to the lord’s bedroom to wake up the unconscious lord and gave him a series of instructions.
Next, she quickly led her familiars to the first floor.
Soon, the lord, like a servant, respectfully led the three of them to a suite no less luxurious than the lord’s bedroom.
After the three of them entered the room, they couldn’t help but collapse.
Dekan and Cornelia leaned on the sofa as usual, while Morion sat at the desk.
“Not bad, a qualified hotel manager.”
Dekan praised in a low voice.
However, at this moment, after confirming that they had entered a safe area, Cat Teacher drilled out from Dekan’s shadow.
After finishing, it showed the content on the paper to the other three.
On it was written:
“Are you guys crazy! Are you really going to use this countess? What if she finds out and things go wrong, meow?!”
Morion, sitting at the desk, took Cat Teacher’s pen and wrote on the paper:
“Wouldn’t it be too wasteful to use her up like this without squeezing out her remaining value?”
After all, it would be a bit troublesome to find and catch the remaining few challengers.
It would be nice if this countess could be of more use before she was killed.
When daytime came, once the countess and her familiars ran out of the building and were exposed to the sunlight, they would only have one-tenth of their combat power.
It could be said that they couldn’t even run if they wanted to, and were at the mercy of Dekan’s trio.
Cat Teacher gradually compromised.
After all, it had survived a terrifying night when Dekan kept information from it in the mansion, so there was nothing to be afraid of now.
“But can we really catch the Resurrection Church members tonight, meow?”
Cat Teacher wrote on the paper.
Morion didn’t explain much, just took the paper and pen, stood up, and handed them to Dekan who was paralyzed on the sofa.
Dekan took the paper and pen with considerable satisfaction.
Obviously, Morion knew what he wanted to do.
So Dekan wrote on the paper:
“Mission Objective 2: Defeat Countess Lilislina. If this mission fails, after the mission time limit ends, Countess Lilislina will be teleported to a random coordinate in the challenger’s original world.”
However, after he finished writing, nothing happened.
Soon, Dekan started writing on the paper again.
“Mission Objective 2: Find Countess Lilislina and defeat her…”
It was the enumeration method again.
The general mission objective was already clear, the only difference was the wording.
Once he knew the countess' true name, the content of the mission was easy to guess.
As for why the mission objective 2 prompt never appeared when they ran into Lilislina earlier.
The reason was simple.
They lacked a rigorous investigation process and deductive steps, so the Shadow World could not determine if they had truly confirmed the identity of the final boss.
If the Shadow World directly refreshed the information, it would be equivalent to helping the challengers confirm and verify the identity of the final boss.
This was the consequence of skipping too many steps.
Even the Shadow World couldn’t decide whether to display the hidden mission.
However, since he had grasped the sentence structure of Mission Objective 3, it didn’t take long for Dekan to successfully try out the correct answer this time:
【Mission Objective 2: Investigate the vampire’s conspiracy and find and defeat Countess Lilislina hidden in the city. If this mission fails, after the mission time limit ends, Countess Lilislina will be teleported to a random coordinate in the challenger’s original world.】
At the same time, the other challengers also received this prompt.
“Hehehe…”
Dekan couldn’t help but laugh softly.
At this moment, Countess Lilislina’s side must have also started their phishing enforcement operation.
When those greedy Resurrection Church members saw the refreshed prompt from the Shadow World, they would definitely think that tonight, at this very moment, some challenger had successfully made great progress on Mission Objective 2!
It was very likely that they were about to complete the mission.
When they had just seen the Shadow World prompt that the final boss was a “Countess.”
And just happened to detect a group of knight patrol teams in the city-state chasing a seriously injured and weakened female vampire.
What would they think?
Without a doubt, the opportunity to steal the kill and pick up the spoils had arrived.
This was an opportunity to increase the Shadow World settlement reward that was delivered right to their mouths.
They wouldn’t suspect that it was a trap.
Humans and vampires could collude to set up a trap.
Neither humans nor vampires could collude with the Shadow World!
After all, the Shadow World’s prompts were always objective and reliable.
The ones chasing the female vampire were the city-state’s regular knights.
The Resurrection Church members who noticed this would not let this opportunity go and would definitely go forward to provide support.
To try and catch the vampire.
Then they would be disappointed to find that this was not the countess they were looking for, but just her familiar.
But soon, a knight would tell them that the lord had an urgent matter to discuss with them, with a huge reward and information involving the countess.
Next, they would be taken to the lord’s mansion and ambushed.
There would be no escape route.
“Thank you, Shadow World, your public channel is really useful.”
Dekan wrote another sentence next to the correct answer.
Although he didn’t know if the Shadow World could see it.
But he was already looking forward to his evaluation at the end.
Seeing Dekan finish his work, Morion took back the paper and pen.
Then Morion wrote on the paper:
“Alright, time to rest. Cat Teacher and I will take the first half of the night, you two take the second half.”
He showed it to Dekan and Cornelia, who were paralyzed on the sofa.
Dekan was a little puzzled.
(Shouldn’t it be me and Morion in one group, and Cornelia and Cat Teacher in another?)
Dekan wanted to express something, but Morion had no intention of giving him the pen and paper.
And Cat Teacher also jumped onto Morion’s head, as if determined to be in a group with Morion.
(When did this scummy cat get so close to this old fox…)
Dekan really wanted to complain.
But seeing that his own cat had its own ideas.
He only felt helpless.
Dekan and Cornelia looked at each other.
Without much turmoil.
They went to sleep on opposite sides of the spacious bed.
And soon, they both fell asleep.
Confirming that the two were asleep.
Morion and Cat Teacher began their conversation.
Morion sat at the desk, while Cat Teacher lay on the desk, writing and drawing.
It began to give Morion one-on-one tutoring, catching him up on the plot he had missed.
This was all the story it had asked from Cornelia when they were together.
“Episode one, it has to start with the boy meeting the girl. At that time, they were still two people, no, at that time Cornelia was still a person, Dekan was already not much like a person anymore…”
