Login with GoogleChapter 49: A Team Battle Full of Excitement!
Loria was astonished by the simulated progress.
However, it seems that only this way can explain why she was defeated by those water spirit girls.
Did the simulator have a bug?
No.
In fact, this was a splendid performance by the talented girl, Loria!
Loria had deceived herself in the past, so how could she not deceive those self-conceited water spirits who believed they had won a great victory?
The more Loria thought about it, the more she felt that the undercover plan she had come up with in her simulation was more reliable than what she had thought of just now.
"It is extremely difficult to tame a monster girl."
No matter if she tried to conquer them with strength or charm them with her body, she found it difficult to ensure that there would be no traitors among that group of water spirit girls.
And at this moment, risking her life as a wager, she couldn't afford to face the consequences of a traitor.
In the simulation, she certainly thought about this, and thus decided to take a completely opposite path.
Since she couldn't conquer the water spirit girls, she thought, why not let the water spirit girls conquer her instead?
Of course, what she meant was being conquered on the surface.
Just based on these water spirit girls, wanting to turn her into a sex slave is a bit too far-fetched, to say the least.
Were they satisfied?
Do you not have the ability to know?
Loria was full of confidence.
In her eyes, the process of these two paths wasn't really that different. It was simply a matter of who went up and who went down, who attacked and who defended.
For her, who possessed a bunch of strange talents and skills, it was all about having fun anyway, so those small problems didn't need to be worried about at all.
Of course, the most crucial aspect for the success of this plan lied in her adept use of a rare skill she rarely used, "playing dead!"
The skill, "pretending to be dead!" was a skill she had possessed even before obtaining the simulator.
True to its name, the skill was as it sounded.
After using this skill, she could disguise herself as an extremely weak person, to the point of even playing dead and temporarily stopping her heartbeat.
It is precisely with this skill that she is able to repeatedly feign fainting in front of the water spirit girls, causing them to completely lose all vigilance towards her.
At this point, Loria's plan had already been about seventy to eighty percent successful.
Next, she simply had to enjoy... I mean, endure the torment of the water spirit girls, while waiting for the mysterious puppeteer to reveal themselves.
This time, the goddess smiled upon her, and there were no unexpected occurrences during the wait.
She remained determined, and as promised, the mysterious puppeteer appeared.
"Just let me listen to what your plan is all about!"
Loria widened her eyes in surprise.
[The person speaking deliberately spoke with a hoarse voice, making it impossible for you to determine who they were. However, you still managed to gather a lot of information from their conversation.]
Loria tried to summarize what she had heard.
The mastermind behind the scenes didn't explain why they wanted to destroy Creek Town, but they easily manipulated the conflict between adventurers and magical creatures, as well as the recent incident involving the abduction and harm of the water spirit girls by Mayor Chapman a couple of days ago, in order to gain control over the water spirit tribe.
They didn't even need to use magic.
"We must avenge our fellow brethren. In that filthy town, there are more than just Chapman who harm our people. Since the humans of Claren City refuse to seek justice, we will have to take matters into our own hands!"
The water spirit girls' feelings of anger were ignited.
The shadowy figure promised to stay in touch with them, until the time for action was confirmed. They mentioned that they would later visit the Slime girls' tribe, the Little Demon tribe, and other places. Finally, they would contact the nearby most powerful monsters.
Tree sprite!
If all the monsters could unite, Creek Town would surely be defenseless against them!
It seemed that the water spirits believed this without a doubt. In fact, the adventurers of Creek Town were indeed no match for the united monsters.
Before leaving, the hidden mastermind mentioned one more thing.
[The investigation team that had come from Claren City has arrived in Creek Town. They urged the monsters to unite and attack the investigation team on their way back, to ensure that none of them would return to Claren City and disrupt the upcoming plans.]
Loria gasped in astonishment, "No wonder there was no follow-up on this matter. I thought it had been suppressed!"
["By the way, there is one more thing. Try not to provoke Adeline, the guildmaster of the Adventurers Management Guild. She is extremely powerful, and you are no match for her. Only by staying alive can you see what lies ahead."]
"Only by staying alive can you see what lies ahead."
Loria pondered over these words for a moment.
She didn't know why the shadowy figure behind the scenes was acting, but the version of her in the simulation was now living out these words.
Alive.
Not only was she alive, but she also wanted the ordinary people of Creek Town to be alive!
Certainly, in Creek Town, there are people like Chapman and the chief and deputy directors who are scoundrels, but there are also good people like Grandma Lily and the guildmaster.
How could a good person die so tragically and mysteriously like this?
"Puff."
Loria let out a slow breath.
It was rare for her to scheme behind the guildmaster's back for so many days, but she didn't feel guilty about it in her heart.
Strictly speaking, this doesn't count as deceiving the guildmaster, after all, they hadn't established a relationship by this time.
The matter of not having a confirmed relationship, can it be considered as deceit? At most, it can only be said that they were being a bit reckless before marriage. Loria believed that the guildmaster would understand her and feel proud to have a wife like her!
"Yes, that's right!"
Run, Loria, and conquer the Slime Maid and other tribes in the same way, in order to gather more valuable information.
[After the mysterious figure had left, you worried that they might come back for revenge, so you didn't rush to go back.]
"Okay, stay calm!"
[Waiting until midnight, a new water spirit maiden entered the dungeon. They were greatly shocked to discover that you had escaped their control and attempted to make you faint again. However, you smirked slightly and effortlessly left them exhausted.]
[You defeated all the water spirit maidens, leaving them lying on the ground defiantly, shouting that they would kill and mutilate you as they pleased.]
[You didn't kill them, instead you tied them all up. You explained to them with kindness and showed them empathy, and in the end, you successfully convinced the leader of the water spirit maidens.]
[Day 8: You planned to sneak into the Slime maiden tribe to gather more information, so that you could persuade all adventurers to launch an early attack on the Tree spirit.]
[On your way out, you met Guildmaster Adeline. She had been worried sick for the past four days since you suddenly disappeared. Guildmaster Adeline had been so frantic searching for you that she hadn't slept for several days, resulting in dark bags under her eyes and red eyes.]
[You were deeply moved and gave up your plan to continue infiltrating the Slime maiden tribe. However, this was not the time for being moved. You told Guildmaster Adeline about your discovery and asked the leader of the water spirits to testify for you.]
[Day 9: After personally delving into the investigation of the Slime maiden tribe, Guildmaster Adeline returned with more accurate information. Immediately, in her capacity as the guildmaster, she gathered all adventurers together.]
[You stepped forward to explain the situation to everyone. The adventurers were filled with excitement as you quickly organized yourselves. Under the leadership of Guildmaster Adeline, you began the search for the ever-evil tree spirit.]
[One day later, you successfully located the fleeing tree spirit in the wilderness. Nearly a thousand adventurers launched a full-scale assault against the tree spirit, marking the beginning of the epic battle to defend Creek Town!]
"It's on fire, and this time it's really on fire!"
Loria felt her blood boil with excitement as she watched.
Even if she couldn't uncover the mastermind behind the scenes this time, she believed that the moment was not far away!
