The girl stood at the edge of the crowd, her gaze resting on him, her eyes filled with complicated emotions.
She watched Shuofang Si without saying anything, seemingly waiting for him to speak first.
Shuofang Si paid no mind to what she might be thinking and asked directly, "Have you decided on your enhancement path?"
Zhao Yingkong was silent for two seconds before she spoke. "I don't plan to redeem anything from the sci-fi category. It's enough that he's doing that. I trust the weapon in my own hands more."
"I plan to redeem the Shining Bloodline, then buy a legendary magical weapon, the Hellfire Fang. One C-Rank and two D-Ranks. That'll use up exactly what I have."
After hearing her out, Shuofang Si shook his head. "You really do take things to extremes. Pure assassination, huh? With a setup like that, you could easily get in and never get out."
"And the weapon you picked isn't particularly powerful offensively, either. It's nowhere near sci-fi weapons."
He paused, looking into Zhao Yingkong's eyes. "Your own strength seems pretty good. Your raw stats are enough. Why not get something with a useful mechanic, like invisibility or Teleportation?"
"As an assassin, I naturally aim to kill in a single strike," Zhao Yingkong replied coldly. "Besides, I don't have enough resources to redeem the things you mentioned."
"Oh, is that so? You've put the anti-spirit measures I mentioned into your weapon, while leaning toward speed for your personal enhancements."
"But I saw you using threads just now. Let me recommend a setup."
As Shuofang Si spoke, he raised a hand and pointed at the Main God's Great Light Sphere.
"Teigu: Infinite Variations: Cross Tail. It only costs one C-Rank. It's a thread-based weapon that can cut, bind, lay traps, scout, and weave armor."
