Milu comes from a family of assassins, and she always falls asleep in all sorts of environments without any defenses, probably because she trusts other people.
He usually appears timid and socially awkward, but he is actually surprisingly dependent on others.
But it's also a feeling of inferiority... that I think I'm not very capable, yet I feel that everyone else is very talented...
An Yi didn't go to eat breakfast, nor did she go to the corridor; she simply sat down on the other side of the door.
There are still several hours before it's time to "go to work".
Let him keep watch for these few hours.
Even though it was already daylight.
That afternoon, information brokers ran around the streets and alleys spreading the word that the Black Ghost was going to hold a press conference about "capturing the Lord of No Form".
In a bustling tavern in the city, a half-dragon finished a two-liter glass of wine, stood up, and walked out, casually wiping his mouth with his sleeve.
"Hey! You bastard! You're leaving without paying?! I'll chop your head off!" The tavern owner cursed as he chased after him.
However, upon stepping out of the tavern, they discovered that the enormous, red-headed, half-dragon had vanished into the street.
"Damn it! If I find you, I'll skin you alive!" the tavern owner roared, storming back home.
Less than a meter away from the tavern owner, to the side of the tavern's entrance, the necromancer, who had hidden a skull under his black robe, chuckled.
"Don't worry, you probably won't find it in this lifetime."
Chapter 177 I Won't Let You Sleep Tonight
Lycorina's head suddenly sank downwards.
"Bah!"
She woke up with a start.
Then a chill ran down my spine—
How did I fall asleep?!
Look up.
Why is Milu asleep too?!
"It's all over, it ...!!"
They were supposed to keep watch over An Yi, so why are they all asleep?!
Regardless of whether there are enemies or not, the fact that she's asleep is already outrageous!
"Have you slept enough? If not, go back to your room and sleep."
At that moment, An Yi's cold voice came from the side.
Lycorina forced a stiff smile, turning her head back and forth intermittently.
An...An Yi...is awake!
Lycorina braced herself against the ground, twisted her body to kneel on the floor, then placed her hands on the floor in front of her and bent down;
"Yes...yes, I didn't search: Er■Jiu Si,』Ling〗Wu∴6≡, Si Qi!"
An Yi: "?"
An Yi didn't respond for a moment, then quickly realized what was happening;
"It's getting light. I have to go to work in an hour."
“It’s not a matter of time!” Lycorina clenched her little fist.
He had promised to protect An Yi, but he fell asleep instead. Not only did he break his promise, but he also abandoned An Yi's safety.
Even if An Yi didn't have any expectations of her in the first place, it's her own business if she doesn't keep her promise.
This has nothing to do with whether An Yi will forgive her or not; she herself will never forgive herself!
"Is anyone else asleep besides you?"
Suddenly, An Yi spoke up and asked.
"No way... How does Annie know there are other people?" Lycorina was taken aback.
Was it because he didn't trust her promise that he couldn't sleep all night?
“I’m not deaf. I can hear you talking in the hallway before I go to sleep,” Annie said.
"Well... everyone agreed to take turns keeping watch, but I was the only one who fell asleep..." Lycorina said, blaming herself.
Although Miluko was also asleep, Lycorina knew that she must have waited until Anyi left before going to sleep.
She could imagine that after she fell asleep, Milu would stay awake and watch over An Yi until she opened the door and came out.
Milu is much stronger than her!
“Okay, then come to my room tonight… no, every night for the next few days,” Annie said.
"Huh?" Lycorina was stunned.
"Special training."
Annie stood up, dusted off her pants, and without even trying to pull Licorina away, simply said expressionlessly; ;) ∮″ˇ∷∞≮〃
"Special training that won't let you fall asleep."
Milu listened from the side without daring to move.
She had actually woken up when the two of them started talking, but she was pretending to be asleep.
then……
Is this something I can hear?!
An Yi didn't blame Lycorina. They had only been in the demon territory for a short time, and it was An Yi herself who asked everyone to rest.
Lycorina simply developed a habit of getting proper rest, which isn't even a mistake.
But the next lesson;
It means that when you need to be on guard, you have to force yourself not to rest!
You will encounter it.
You'll always encounter this among the demons—
There is no time to relax.
……
Today's task is very simple.
First, they continue to "work" at the auction house, posing as waiters serving tea and water. At least they need to get used to serving tea and water.
No one had any doubts about it.
They are infiltrators, they are assassins; to easily infiltrate the demon race, they need to learn to play various roles.
Waiters are just the beginning; they will certainly have many more opportunities to play roles that frequently appear in public places in the future.
Then, in addition to becoming familiar with the profession, you also need to figure out the routes within the auction house as much as possible.
Even if the bait has already been set, there is no guarantee that the other party will still appear at the auction house.
In particular, memorizing the various routes around the meeting rooms makes it easier to intercept and track them.
Everyone still retains their special abilities, which can be used to quickly resolve battles.
Meanwhile, Lycorina and her group also had other tasks.
Similarly, they familiarized themselves with the route and inquired about various information related to the [Lord of No Form].
One thing worth noting is that [Blackie] hasn't revealed the location of the venue all day.
Perhaps they didn't want to give the [Lord of No Form] too much time to devise an escape route, so they deliberately didn't announce the venue information in advance.
This naturally caused trouble for the heroes, as they had no way to plan ahead by knowing the venue in advance.
It's night again.
Back at the hotel, they held a meeting to share their intelligence, which included the matter of the meeting venue.
The five men at the auction house are currently immobilized, so the task of investigating the venue naturally falls to Miluko.
Although they couldn't control the movements of the "Blackie's" men, there was one thing they could investigate;
That means that all the venues in the city that can accommodate more than a few hundred people can be investigated in advance, and routes can be surveyed one by one to make predictions about all situations.
Exits are limited, so we can try to block them before they enter complex roads, or predict their possible routes after they have entered complex roads.
This task needs to be completed by everyone; it would be too much work for Miluko to do all the calculations herself.
The heroes were also under some pressure, after all, accomplishing these tasks was no easy feat.
They also suddenly realized just how important the believers' existence truly was.
The believers are like a powerful computer, helping the heroes to quickly integrate and process information.
The system is no longer effective at handling these issues.
It's not that the system can't process information, but rather that it's difficult to summarize and design for each individual's abilities.
Each person's true abilities can only be known to each other in reality; the system will only provide unrealistic plans.
For example, flying over from a high altitude and grabbing someone.
They completely disregarded whether the heroes had the ability to fly.
Furthermore, even if the condition is set as "If hero XX and hero XX cooperate", the other party will still be unable to discern the other hero's abilities and situation.
It will be much better after filling in the data, but the heroes also have speed-up skills, or their base values are already relatively high.
After some "tuning" of the system, the heroes ultimately decided to formulate their own plan.
At least I understand my own situation well. Things that could be handled in a few words have become more complicated when left to the system.
An Yi wasn't too bothered; he was already used to all sorts of complicated plans.
Just like playing cards, experienced players can tell roughly how to play their hand at a glance.
Planning and forecasting are indeed more difficult than playing cards, but An Yi has already passed that headache stage and can tell at a glance what to do in any situation.
