Chapter 383

That cannot be handled by chess pieces alone

Just as Li Yao was hunting the swarm

At the same time

In the western region of the forest

Beside a vast lake

A young girl, whose back alone is beautiful enough to stir the imagination

Is standing under a giant tree

And behind her, a continuous stream of insects emerges from the forest, pouring into the lake

Beneath this body of water

There is an A-rank swarm

Kujo Mise quietly watches the lake surface

"Fortunately, Water Turtle Insects are amphibious, otherwise it would be really hard to deal with this A-rank swarm"

On the third day of the Border Trial

Kujo Mise relied on her super-strong amplification ability

To lead a B-rank swarm and defeat an A-rank swarm head-on

And subsequently contracted it

Up until now

Kujo Mise has not participated in any matters regarding the alliance between the Sakura Nation and other countries

She has stayed in the western forest the whole time

Unconcerned with worldly affairs, developing this A-rank Water Turtle swarm alone

The Border Trial

She wants to contribute to her country

But based on Kujo Mise's understanding of her older brother

Any order

Even if it looks normal on the surface

In reality, it could potentially involve the Dragon Nation, and involve Li Yao-kun

Therefore

When Kujo Lu Zai proposed an alliance with other countries

Kujo Mise refused immediately

After the refusal was fruitless, she immediately stated her stance

She would only be responsible for developing the insect swarm forces

And would absolutely not participate in any war!

She does not want to be enemies with Li Yao-kun

Nor does she want the professionals of the Sakura Nation to be enemies with Li Yao-kun

Kujo Mise raises her staff

A deep purple ball of light flies into the air, scattering glowing purple light

After the Water Turtle Insects coming from the forest receive the purple light spots

Their speed clearly increases by a notch!

This is a skill she bought for a high price

After parting ways with Li Yao

After a journey through the abyss

Kujo Mise discovered

That battles outside of dungeons

Are almost all encounter battles

There is simply no opportunity for advance preparation!

Li Yao has many summoned beasts

If she were to amplify them one by one

Perhaps by the time the battle ended

She still wouldn't have finished amplifying them

So she bought an SS-grade 【Wind Spirit Blessing】

A group percentage agility buff!

After learning it

Through the baptism of her SS-grade Star-Language Witch profession

It evolved into an SSS-grade exclusive professional skill

【Wind Spirit Star's Protection】

It can amplify the agility of all friendly units within a hundred-meter range by 35%

Used on the Water Turtle swarm, their combat power goes up another notch!

Casualties are greatly reduced

Kujo Mise is quite satisfied with this skill

She reaches out to touch her chin lightly and whispers softly: "The Border Trial is ending, Bai Yu should have helped me receive that group strength buff, right?"

"I wonder if my skill slots are full yet"

Just at this moment

A small vortex suddenly appears beside her

Kujo Mise's expression changes

This is her older brother's skill

SSS-grade 【Yin-Yang Technique Practitioner】

Combat power exceeds SS-grade professions

But is weaker than general SSS-grades

Correspondingly, it has extremely many functional skills

It is an extremely 'cunning' profession

【Yin-Yang Shuttle】

Can designate two coordinates to connect to each other

"Mise, how are the Water Turtle Insects doing now?"

The person arrives before the voice

Kujo Lu Zai emerges from the vortex and asks with a smile

"If you have something to say, just say it," Kujo Mise says coldly

"You really do understand me," Kujo Lu Zai is not angry at all because of Kujo Mise's tone

He continues: "Indeed, there is something I need to ask of my little sister"

"I discovered an S-rank swarm that needs the help of the Water Turtle Insects you are raising"

"You coalition forces have so many swarms, you still need Water Turtle Insects?" Kujo Mise asks in confusion

In her heart, she is actually already suspicious

Whether Kujo Lu Zai is up to some crooked scheme again

Wanting to use her hands

To deal with Li Yao-kun

Kujo Lu Zai explains with a smile: "The coalition's swarms just finished hunting several A-rank swarms in the far eastern region and are on their way"

"We also have spare A-rank swarms, but without your Wind Spirit Star's Protection, they are simply no match for an S-rank swarm"

"You only need to let the Water Turtle Insects stall the S-rank swarm for two hours"

"The coalition's insect army will bring the swarm over to support"

"And crush them with numbers, contracting the first S-rank swarm!"

"How about it, help your big brother?" Kujo Lu Zai wants to pat Kujo Mise's shoulder

But is dodged by Kujo Mise without a trace

When she was young

Kujo Mise liked and respected this older brother of hers very much

But as she grew older

Kujo Mise became increasingly clear

That this older brother of hers

Is obedient to her on the surface, but in reality, has his own purposes

As for now

There is respect and a blood relationship

Otherwise, she wouldn't have participated in the Border Trial

But wanting her to trust Kujo Lu Zai

Is not that simple

"I refuse," Kujo Mise says flatly

"After coming in, I made it very clear"

"I am only responsible for developing the swarm, don't bother me with other matters"

"You can take these Water Turtle Insects at any time, but I myself will not go"

A flash of ruthlessness crosses Kujo Lu Zai's eyes

Relying solely on Water Turtle Insects, how can one stall an S-rank insect race?

Relying solely on Water Turtle Insects, how can one amplify the agility attributes of those S-rank swarms to let them stall Li Yao?

The ruthlessness is quickly concealed by Kujo Lu Zai

This little sister of his is indeed not so easy to fool

He pretends to laugh at himself and says:

"Mise, actually I don't want to hide it from you"

"This matter does indeed involve Li Yao-kun"

Kujo Mise's eyes flash, and she pricks up her ears

Kujo Lu Zai says with a doting face:

"You are my own younger sister, and Li Yao-kun is the person you have taken a fancy to"

"Stop talking nonsense," Kujo Mise frowns

Kujo Lu Zai smiles lightly, not minding, and continues: "Alright"

"Li Yao-kun also wants to hunt this S-rank swarm"

"And the route this S-rank swarm is taking happens to be the location of the Dragon Nation's stronghold"

"But they have already contracted an S-rank swarm"

"An S-rank swarm?" Kujo Mise murmurs softly

As expected of Li Yao-kun!

Seeing Kujo Mise's expression, Kujo Lu Zai sneers obscurely

He knows

With Kujo Mise's calmness and intelligence

No matter what he says, the other party will not believe it

Only in this way

Half-true and half-false

And mixing Li Yao into it

Letting her know that he has ulterior motives, but this motive will not significantly affect her Li Yao-kun

Only then will she believe what he says

And subsequently help him

Thinking of this

Kujo Lu Zai cannot help but feel resentment

An outsider

Is actually more trustworthy than him, her own biological brother

Kujo Mise

I really have no reason to keep you

Kujo Lu Zai suppresses the resentment in his heart, still maintaining a gentle and refined appearance:

"If we met outside, as an older brother, of course I would help where I can"

"But this is the Border Trial"

"Even if I promised you not to be enemies with him, as the captain of the Sakura Nation's team, I can't possibly disregard the interests of the Sakura Nation to help the Dragon Nation, right?"

"They have an S-rank swarm, hunting this S-rank swarm is just to serve as blood food for their S-rank insect race"

Kujo Lu Zai gives a bitter smile:

"I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, Mise"

"Even for the Seventeen-Nation Coalition, up until now, we haven't contracted a single S-rank swarm"

"If there is no S-rank swarm, the Demigod race will descend in two days"

"Our Sakura Nation might even have trouble protecting itself"

"So, your brother really has no choice, which is why I am breaking my word to ask for your help"

"Mise, you will help me, right? Help the Sakura Nation, right?"

Kujo Mise always feels that this older brother of hers is hiding something

She says:

"Give me a scout swarm"

"I want to first confirm whether Li Yao-kun possesses an S-rank swarm"

"If that is indeed the case, I can help you"

"Of course, no problem," Kujo Lu Zai smiles and takes a small beetle from his bosom

The essence of half-true and half-false is not being afraid of the other party verifying it locally!
