Chapter 330
After discovering the way to the other world, Yu Xunge didn’t rush to go there. She planned to first gather and study the game-related items or machinery from Zelan.
She stayed in the alchemy shop for another two days, not only teaching Little Maki various promotional pitches and more ways to play with blind boxes, but also learning the skill "I Don't Like This Skill II." Hufflepuff even casually taught her "I Don't Like This Skill I" as well.
Tu Lan also received a salary, and Hufflepuff gifted her twelve bottles of master-level potions with various effects.
Yu Xunge decided to sell all the scraps she had brought from Dragon Island to Hufflepuff and even gifted her a bottle of Dragon's Tear.
This was something she had shed while watching a drama earlier. At that time, Yu Xunge had just gone downstairs to grab some fruit and saw her crying. She immediately used her teleportation skill to appear in front of her, knelt on one knee, tossed away the tissue she was using to wipe her tears, and pulled out a glass bottle to catch those tears.
She watched as Yu Xunge shook her head and sighed. While others might wonder why the dragon was crying, only Yu Xunge cared about how long the dragon could cry.
Yu Xunge: ???
What’s wrong with this little princess now?
...
After leaving the alchemy shop, the duo—one person and one dragon—first explored the toy store in the Dark City. Their focus wasn’t on games but on those operational items like racing cars. Yu Xunge and Tu Lan planned to buy one to take back for research.
Tu Lan paid for everything; Yu Xunge was currently broke and had to rely on her.
After reconciling with Mistblade, they faced little danger when visiting the three main cities of the Moon Fox. Previously, to save time with the skill "I Really Don’t Have Time to Bathe," they often avoided going to the Moon Fox main city whenever possible.
After leaving the Dark City, Yu Xunge and Tu Lan headed to the Dolphin Forest, where the three main cities of Wind Scythe were the most developed, boasting the most entertainment facilities and shops.
As soon as they entered the toy store, they spotted a familiar figure.
Wolf Fortress! My wild wallet!!
Yu Xunge screamed in her mind to Tu Lan, "I’m about to get rich!"
Tu Lan: ?
Yu Xunge: "Give me a gold coin."
Tu Lan handed one over, and Yu Xunge turned her back, took out the turtle jade, and smashed the gold coin into it.
Then, she walked into the toy store with a calm demeanor.
At that moment, Wolf Fortress was starting a business, claiming to the counter that the toy he bought last year was defective.
After Yu Xunge picked out her toys and went to check out, Wolf Fortress was still haggling with the Moon Fox salesperson.
The store was bustling with customers, and another blood elf employee was already attending to the crowd.
After Tu Lan paid, Yu Xunge grabbed the shopping bag and was about to step over the threshold when she turned back and used her stealing skill on Wolf Fortress multiple times.
She only stopped when she saw her wallet filled with a pile of gold coins!
After leaving the toy store, Yu Xunge quickened her pace.
Tu Lan: "How much?"
Yu Xunge: "30,000!"
Just as she finished speaking, a scream from Wind Scythe echoed behind them...
**Chapter 425: Skill 1 - Survive Until the End**
Yu Xunge quickly turned a corner, activated "Hunting Eye" to ensure no one was around, then went invisible and changed her outfit. Using her disguise skill, she transformed into an oak owl. Considering it was Wind Scythe, she decided to become an oak owl this time.
Tu Lan turned into a small snake and hung on Yu Xunge's ear, who was now an oak owl.
They didn’t leave but continued to browse.
However, soon, many Wind Scythe soldiers appeared on the streets of the Dolphin Forest. Wolf Fortress was crying as he dragged a large Wind Scythe along the street, "Uncle! My hard-earned money has been stolen again! It must be that thief who often steals in our Wind Scythe main city! It has to be!"
Yu Xunge and Tu Lan instinctively looked up at the name of the large Wind Scythe—Wazuo.
Yu Xunge & Tu Lan: "..." Oh no, the Wind Scythe royal family.
Tu Lan wiped her brow, "We absolutely cannot expose our skills, or we’ll be in deep trouble."
Yu Xunge: "Can’t Dragon Island protect us?"
Tu Lan: "What I mean is, we’ll die once out here and then die again on Dragon Island."
Yu Xunge exclaimed in horror, "Last time when I shared skills with you, you didn’t say that! You said Dragon Island would protect us!"
Tu Lan scratched her head, "Huh? Did I say that?"
Yu Xunge: ...
Who! Who led Tu Lan astray? She used to be so different!
As an oak owl, Yu Xunge stood calmly by the roadside, her expression serene, her mental fortitude strong.
Tu Lan: "I’m starting to get nervous."
Yu Xunge: "We just found our wild wallet, what are you nervous about?"
Tu Lan: "… I used to not believe what the Holy Grail said about players’ divine talents being related to their personalities, but now I do. I’m just not cut out for that skill."
Yu Xunge: "It’s okay, take your time to understand. Being unscrupulous and committing crimes is also a kind of talent."
If she hadn’t turned into an oak owl, she might not have been so calm, but now she was.
Soon, the Wind Scythe squad leader approached Yu Xunge, asking her a few routine questions.
Yu Xunge answered in oak owl language.
She wasn’t too worried that Wolf Fortress and Wazuo would discover she was the one who stole the gold coins. If they could really find out, she wouldn’t have stolen for months without getting caught.
Of course, she was prepared for being caught red-handed.
She and Tu Lan had already established an escape plan. When the time came, she would scatter gold coins to create chaos, allowing Tu Lan to use her cat head to return to Dragon Island. Then Tu Lan would summon her back, which would be faster than if she left on her own using the cat head.
She had no intention of swapping divine talents with Wazuo. Wazuo was just royalty, not the Wind Scythe king. Although his divine talent was S-rank, Yu Xunge preferred her current setup in terms of practicality.
During the questioning, the squad leader focused on her mouth movements, confirming she was speaking oak owl language. After a few more routine inquiries, he found her so confident that she seemed like an owl emperor, so he moved on to the next target.
After all, Wolf Fortress had said that when his gold was stolen, there were no oak owls in the store.
After being questioned for half an hour, Wolf Fortress and Wazuo allowed all players present to leave after providing their names.
Having spent 300 years in the High Tower, Yu Xunge was proficient in oak owl language, and she quickly signed her modified ID in oak owl script and was released.
Just as she was about to leave, a commotion broke out not far away, and soldiers gathered around.
One of the soldiers shouted, "He doesn’t know Moon Fox language! He’s a fake!"
With the intention of gaining knowledge, Yu Xunge checked the divine talent of that Moon Fox and found that the opponent’s divine talent skill was A-rank, named "Desperate Survival."
The disguise skill was indeed listed in the divine talent skill set and looked quite good.
But Yu Xunge’s attention was focused on another skill!
**Skill 1 - Survive Until the End:** Can disguise as any object you have seen before. At that time, all player information will turn into modifiable item information, and cannot be detected by any skill or means below SSS rank. You will appear as a true inanimate object, and your life value will be reduced to your level; during the disguise, you cannot use any skills; duration is unlimited, cooldown is none, and each use of the skill will consume 50% of your mana.
The pros and cons were equally clear.
The biggest drawback was that the life value would drop to the level number, meaning if she used this skill, her life value would only be 85 points, which could be lethal with just a kick from a passerby.
However… she had "Bedtime Fairy Tale"! So this issue was no longer a problem.
Because "Bedtime Fairy Tale" was calculated by percentage! She couldn’t be one-shot; the enemy could only take away 30% of her health, whether her health was 85 points or 850,000 points, she could withstand four hits before dying.
As for "unable to use any skills during disguise," as long as she obtained more golden tree withered leaves, she could change all that!
The only pity was that this skill was in the "Skill 1" slot.
Corresponding to her sharpshooter talent "You’re Too Weak (Passive)"—in battle, you can keenly detect the enemy’s weaknesses.
The Moon Fox was already charging toward her.
But in those brief seconds, she had made up her mind: she wanted this skill!
"You’re Too Weak" was great, but "Survive Until the End" was even more special and suited her better. If she had to choose, she would pick the latter.
She quickly used "I Want to Progress Too Much" on the surrounding Wind Scythe soldiers multiple times until her health dropped to 10%, then downed a few potions.
The charging Moon Fox glanced at Yu Xunge, whose health was rapidly declining, but didn’t pay much attention. As he passed by her, he noticed Yu Xunge sidestepping to intentionally block him, and he shoved her away with force.
At that moment, Yu Xunge’s information was all disguised; to this level 48 Moon Fox, she was just a little Kalami.
But after the Moon Fox left, this little Kalami pulled out "Embers" and, under the terrified and strange gazes of all the Wind Scythe, shot herself a few times.
Tu Lan’s frost power had already enveloped Yu Xunge’s entire body. As soon as she was injured, the frost power would spread to the wound, freezing it to prevent blood loss—though at this moment, she was in disguise, so losing blood didn’t really matter.
Meanwhile, Yu Xunge had been following that Moon Fox, trying to use "Reverse Moment" to swap skills.
She had already been attacked; now all she needed was to be at a disadvantage.
Thus, on the streets of Dolphin Forest, all the different races stood dumbfounded, watching this scene unfold.
