New Plan (2)

"Let's go back and ask that Fox Spirit Athena for advice; she's a bit cunning!"

Ye Lang temporarily gave up. He felt that the current situation was too troublesome and that he needed to make a plan. However, he felt that he was too stupid to plan such things and that he would definitely fail. Therefore, he needed to find a professional.

Athena later realized that Ye Lang was more lazy than stupid!

"You're back? Are you alright? Did you get the stuff?" Athena, who had been waiting, immediately asked as soon as she saw Ye Lang appear.

Along with Athena was the drowsy Little Zero, who had seemed to be asleep, but was immediately awakened by Athena's movements.

"No, this time it's a bit troublesome!" Ye Lang shook his head, though he didn't seem to find it troublesome at all.

Perhaps it was because he believed in Athena's wisdom, or perhaps it was because he knew that this matter was not urgent and there was plenty of time to deal with it; being anxious was just a useless emotion.

"What happened?" Athena asked hurriedly.

"It's like this, I came here..." Ye Lang began to recount what had just happened, including the conversation he had overheard, although he didn't quite understand what those people meant.

"You mean, your old courtyard is now heavily guarded, and even Dragon Knight are inside!" Athena felt a headache coming on; putting everything else aside, the Dragon Knight issue was giving her a headache.

Even Orcs understand what Dragon Knight is. Putting aside the Dragon Knight's own strength, the mere existence of dragons is something that cannot be ignored.

Dragons are powerful beings in themselves!

"Yes, it seems like they knew we were coming," Ye Lang nodded and said.

"Idiot, the others are defending against people like us who are eyeing that Alchemy Laboratory!" Athena said irritably. Wasn't that obvious enough? Why do you still think it's about targeting us? You're so slow.

"But that laboratory is mine..." Ye Lang said.

"Uh..." Athena fell silent. She realized that what she had just said was a little inappropriate. Ye Lang was different from others; he was taking back what was his.

"Teacher, when you built the lab, there was no secret passage!" Little Zero asked at this moment. Usually, such hidden places would have secret passages or something similar.

"Yes!" Ye Lang nodded immediately, and this answer left Athena stunned for a moment.

"What?! If you have a secret passage, why don't you just use it?!" Athena immediately asked after realizing what was happening.

If there's a secret passage, why bother with all this trouble? Why not just use the secret passage directly? This young master is always so absent-minded; he even needs someone to remind him of this.

However, at this moment, Ye Lang looked at Athena with a puzzled expression and said, "You have to enter the secret passage first before you can use it!"

"..." Athena was silent for a moment, then tentatively asked, "Could it be that the entrance and exit of the secret passage you mentioned is still inside the courtyard?"

"Yes!" Ye Lang nodded.

"How could you be so stupid? If it's a secret passage, of course you should put it somewhere else!" Athena said helplessly.

At this moment, Ye Lang replied naturally, "Why would I put it somewhere else? It would be very inconvenient for me to come and go like that."

"You keep going in and out... Young Master, you wouldn't be saying that this secret passage is your entrance and exit..." Athena suddenly thought of a possibility: Ye Lang might call the entrance a secret passage, after all, it is a hidden entrance and exit.

A hidden entrance is nothing more than a secret passage.

"Okay!" Ye Lang nodded.

Really...

"How many entrances and exits do you have?" Athena's eyebrows twitched slightly.

"One? Why make so many exits?" Ye Lang said.

"Alright! Let's rest for today and think of a solution tomorrow. You're tired too." Athena frowned. Her telling Ye Lang to rest first didn't mean she would rest herself.

She needed to arrange some things, find out what was going on, and then think of a way to deal with it. Wasn't that exactly what Ye Lang wanted her to do?

"Okay, you need to give me a plan tomorrow!" Ye Lang nodded, and then went to rest.

"What a young master! Tomorrow, such a short time, what can I do? Let's see..." Athena said softly, sounding a little helpless, but mostly serious.

She knew that she might not be able to sleep tonight...

"Go find someone to check the details..." Athena quietly closed the door and left to find their Fox Tribe's intelligence agents. The Fox Tribe was a tribe full of wisdom, and they would naturally do things like arranging spies.

They might not necessarily use Fox Tribe, or even Orcs; they would Human Race to gather intelligence.

"Teacher, you're up. The water for washing your face is ready..."

When Ye Lang got up, he found that Little Zero had already prepared everything, just like a well-behaved and considerate maid, doing everything that Ye Lang needed to do.

Ye Lang still lives the life of a young master, a young master who has everything done for him!

Athena felt very uncomfortable about this. Why should Ye Lang be waited on wherever he went? From the first time she met Ye Lang, it was Taiya, then Tiger Girl, and now it's Little Zero.

Xiao Rui was always with him. By the way, speaking of Xiao Rui, because people might recognize her, and Ye Lang felt that someone needed to protect Tiger Girl, he handed Xiao Rui over to Tiger Girl.

After the upgrade, Xiao Rui can accept more complex commands, namely, obeying Ye Lang's commands, and under certain conditions, obeying Tiger Girl's commands!

This condition, simply put, is that you must not disobey Ye Lang's orders!

Although Xiao Rui is a great help to Ye Lang and can greatly improve his strength, Xiao Rui's presence also makes Ye Lang lose some of his agility in daily activities.

Most importantly, Ye Lang felt that his own safety was less important than Tiger Girl's, and that Xiao Rui protecting Tiger Girl was the best decision he could make!

"Morning!"

When Ye Lang saw Athena, he greeted her politely, but Athena was very unhappy with the greeting, which could be seen from her eyes.

"Early my foot!!" Athena snorted unhappily.

"What's wrong?" Ye Lang asked Athena, stunned for a moment.

"It's nothing!!" Athena was still as annoyed as ever.

Ye Lang stared at Athena for a while, making Athena a little embarrassed. She then said, "Alright, now that you're awake, let's talk about what happened last night!"
