Soros, Complete!

After buying information on the Han family, Yu Xunge headed out and found a massage parlor. She ordered a three-hour package and caught up on sleep while getting a massage. She wasn't planning to sleep tonight, either.

She was in a hurry. The sooner she finished this, the sooner she could return and continue her alchemy lessons.

It was already July 3rd. The third closed beta would begin on October 10th, and she needed to raise her alchemy as much as possible before then.

No wonder she was Massage Therapist No. 88. Such a good number was reserved for true powerhouses. Yu Xunge slept for three hours during the massage, yet felt as though she had rested for an entire night. She glanced at the massage therapist and thought that, once the game invaded, this person's massage expertise might very well be turned into a skill.

Yu Xunge didn't look for a hotel afterward. The massage parlor allowed overnight stays for a fee. After confirming that the room had no surveillance cameras, she booked the massage room and told the attendant not to wake her until eight the next morning.

Once the attendant had left, Yu Xunge carefully checked again to make sure there were no cameras. She locked the room, casually set her bag on the massage bed, went into the restroom, used the Body-Illusion Spell, then used Phantom Shift to reach an SF Express station not far from the entrance to the black market.

It wasn't a good habit to keep having errand runners deliver goods to crime scenes. She didn't like letting people figure out her habits.

She directly got hold of the courier transport schedule. At this time every day, a delivery truck stopped at this station, unloaded its cargo, then continued on. The seventh station was closest to the Han family, only five kilometers away.

It was a little troublesome, but she had never been to the Han family before, so Phantom Shift was unusable. Without a clear image in her mind, she was afraid she might drop right onto Han Qianshan.

By riding in an actual SF Express truck, Yu Xunge arrived outside the Han Family Manor before nightfall...

These days, did a wife have no right to take in a husband unless she lived in a manor?

Yu Xunge took a deep breath. Drawing on her extensive experience with home invasion and robbery, she quickly found Han Qianshan.

As for Han Qianhai, like herself, he was a relative of the male and female leads. But her treatment couldn't compare to Han Qianhai's. Han Qianshan and Han Qianhai were truly as close as siblings. Even after Han Qianshan genuinely fell in love with Yu Xunhuan, she would never hurt Han Qianhai for Yu Xunhuan's sake.

Yu Xunge had been so jealous of that in her previous life.

Today's mission was Soros, not revenge. Relying on a potion, Yu Xunge walked straight into Han Qianshan's room and skillfully crawled into...

Damn it, Han Qianshan's bed had a solid base. There was wood underneath...

Yu Xunge sat cross-legged at the foot of the bed. All she could say was that it was fortunate she had learned the Body-Illusion Spell.

She lowered her eyes and didn't look at Han Qianshan. People were strange sometimes; even while asleep, they could keenly sense someone else's gaze.

As usual, she started with [Wheel of Fortune] as an appetizer. After lowering Han Qianshan's luck to 1, she followed with a Stupefy as insurance, then began chugging Basic Healing Potions regardless of the cost as she used [I Want This, This, and This] on Han Qianshan.

Intelligence +1

Intelligence +1

Soros Set: Top Hat +1

Stop!

She really had seen this hat in her previous life. So this was Soros's final set piece.

No, was this thing really part of the female lead's standard kit?

She couldn't wait to inspect the Soros Set: Top Hat.

[Soros Set: Top Hat (3/3)] (A-rank): Even diviners capable of crossing the river of fate—well, I mean, if their skills and items are A-rank or below—will be unable to learn of your whereabouts. Must be worn to take effect.

When she took out the [Soros Set: Glasses] and [Soros Set: Mask] and placed them together with the top hat.

The black top hat, gold-rimmed glasses, and silver mask glowed faintly before slowly merging into a small, exquisite silver pocket watch.

[Soros's Time] (S-rank): You don't need to know who I am, where I am, or what I'm doing. I'm in a Hurry.

[Skill 1] Disguise: So long as you wish it, you can disguise all of your information;

[Skill 2] Inspect: So long as you wish it, you can inspect anything you wish to know; inspecting detailed information consumes 10 mana per second. An energy-saving mode can be activated, displaying only the basic information of people/items, consuming 1 mana per minute;

[Skill 3] Concealment (Passive): You cannot be divined by any person or object. When someone attempts to divine your whereabouts, you will sense their presence. (Soros is the strongest. Even if an SS-rank comes, all they'll see is a fog. I said so—Soros.)

[Set Skill] I'm in a Hurry: Upon use, you will teleport to anywhere within your line of sight (up to 5 meters away). Cooldown: 10 seconds.

What a haul!!!

Yu Xunge steadied her breathing and immediately activated Inspect's energy-saving mode. Now, she found that players in her field of vision appeared just as they did in the game, with a line of blue glowing text above their heads showing their name, level, and health and mana percentages.

For example, above Han Qianshan's head was: Han Qianshan, Level 0, 100%┃100%.

Suppressing the excitement in her heart, Yu Xunge used her skill on Han Qianshan several more times.

Constitution +1

Time to go!

Then she went to Han Qianhai's room downstairs.

Wheel of Fortune was still on cooldown, so she could only give him the Stupefy + thief-god combo.

She kept at it until dawn, but only got two points of Constitution.

By the time she walked out of the Han Family Manor, her primary stats were as follows:

[Health]: 150/150

[Mana]: 300/300

[Strength]: 8

[Constitution]: 8+3

[Intelligence]: 12+2

[Agility]: 21

[Luck]: 10 (maximum)

[Charm]: 10 (maximum)

Her health had finally started increasing as well. Constitution was a comprehensive attribute related to vitality, defense, magic resistance, mental resistance, health regeneration speed, and more. Her initial Constitution had only been 6. When it had increased before, her health had not changed, but once her Constitution exceeded 10, every additional point of Constitution gave her 50 more health. Every level-up would also increase it... but the amount gained upon leveling up was not fixed. The higher a person's Constitution, the greater their Constitution bonus upon leveling.

Mana worked the same way. Thanks to the increase in Intelligence, her mana had now reached 300.

Yu Xunge hung the pocket watch around her neck and tucked it into her bra. If she could, she would have loved to sew a little password-locked pocket into her bra and lock the pocket watch inside.

Although disguising information still worked as long as it was kept in her bag, she had to wear it to become undivinable. Besides, item skills could only be used while wearing the item. Soros's set skill was far too useful; there was no way she wouldn't use it.

Since she had ridden all the way to the Han family, she had seen the map along the route. Even though the Han family was over thirty kilometers from the massage parlor, she could use Phantom Shift now. With 14 Intelligence, she could move fourteen kilometers each time. After three Phantom Shifts, Yu Xunge returned to the massage parlor's restroom.

She showered, changed clothes, unlocked the door, and went to bed, avoiding sudden death from overwork.

When the attendant came in at eight to wake her, she simply ordered another three hours. After getting massaged until noon, she went out for a meal.

She had to think of what gifts to leave Han Qianshan and Han Qianhai.

Otherwise, she would be letting down the slave formation they had once carved into her back.

Yu Xunhuan had arrived to save her then, but now that her pig brain had been upgraded, using version 2.0 of her pig brain to think it over made it feel wrong. Hey, you didn't come early or late—you arrived only after the formation was finished and the incantation had been spoken?

She couldn't bear to kill Han Qianshan with a single slash. She truly couldn't.

She had to torment them before killing them, or she wouldn't feel satisfied.

Otherwise, it would feel like walking into an all-you-can-eat buffet after starving for ten days, only to gorge herself on chicken and vegetable salad for the sake of her health.

If her enemies were gone in one stroke, she would spend the rest of her life occasionally sitting up in the middle of the night and slapping herself: No, you just killed them like that?!
