Chapter 771 The Gods' Game: Card Swapping 15

This is none of my business.

The only somewhat unusual one is the deceived noblewoman, Hill, who seems to have discovered herself hiding in the small building.

She had never seen herself, but she seemed to know of her existence. Every day, she would prepare a delicious meal and place it in a corner of the attic.

At first, Yu Xunge thought it was the food that the noble lady Hill used to feed stray cats and dogs, but she didn't expect that she would put out another portion the next day, and even wrote a note: Don't you like salad? How about lamb chops?

Not only that, but he also had an extra cloak.

Yu Xunge still didn't touch the food and clothes.

She didn't want to reveal herself. If she ate the food and took the cloak, wouldn't that confirm her existence?

She's not stupid!

She never even considered reminding Hill out of kindness.

Hill may be kind, but that kindness is too cheap...

When Yu Xunge realized that such a cold thought had flashed through her mind, she was momentarily panicked, as if she had unknowingly become a bad child.

But in an instant, Zhu Ri's cold, gray-blue eyes appeared in her mind.

Her heart calmed down again.

She did nothing wrong.

Hill's kindness only required a little food in return, but the price for accepting this kindness was exposing his whereabouts.

If she tried to reciprocate this kindness by telling Hill that she was being schemed against, the consequences would be far more severe.

Hill's personality is unstable. Several times she has had loud arguments with her colleagues because of conflicts. If she finds out about Margot's scheme from me, the most likely thing she will do is try to catch me and drag me to confront Margot.

Kindness is easily shattered in the face of self-interest.

Having experienced countless times being forced into desperate situations in the arena and having to trade injuries for injuries, Yu Xunge subconsciously weighs whether doing something is worthwhile when faced with a problem.

Through observation and learning in the small building, she learned to deduce people's behavior based on the personalities she observed.

But this matter did not end there.

As she heard more and more information, she realized that they were secretly trading one of the skills that was strictly prohibited from being sold openly on the market—camouflage skills of at least S rank.

This level of disguise is very difficult to defend against. Once someone uses this disguise to infiltrate various families, they can easily cause huge losses.

The disguise skills used by these two noble ladies in their transaction were SSS-level.

Yu Xunge exclaimed inwardly.

The skills that Zhu Ri taught him were already very powerful, but according to Zhu Ri, even if those three skills were practiced to their fullest potential and broke through the limits, they would only be S-level.

SSS-level, that's incredibly powerful.

But in reality, the skill that Margot wanted to sell to Hill was only SS-level.

She only temporarily used a prop to make her skill display SSS-level information.

They agreed to make the transaction after get off work tomorrow. An elder from the Hill family would pick her up from get off work and pay for the goods here. Margot would bring the skill scroll to the company tomorrow.

Yu Xunge didn't quite understand why they didn't go to the house to trade. It seemed to be related to the Hill family's siblings.

She plans to start learning as soon as she gets her hands on it.

As for Margot, her family will come to pick her up.

Yu Xunge knew that this was probably to protect her from being beaten to death on the spot.

She huddled inside the chimney, her heart pounding faster than usual.

The question now is not whether or not to remind Hill.

The question now is how she can steal the prize tomorrow.

What?

Is this a crime?

Won't I feel ashamed?

The little owl clasped its hands together and bowed to the sky outside the chimney.

If Heaven wants to strike her down, please strike down the Sun Chaser first.

She learned all that from the Sun-Chasing Spirit, including abandoning the law and justice; she learned it all from that wicked elf.

She plans to try out the [Time Walk] skill tonight to prepare for her escape.

...

Day 20 of the trial.

Yu Xunge had been paying attention to Margot ever since he started working at this office, but unfortunately, even that little cub Fat Goose could get his hands on spatial equipment, so how could Margot not?

But she didn't want to wait until the time for a deal to happen.

Every battle she fought in the arena over 21 days was incredibly beneficial to her.

Countless near-death experiences taught her one thing: the best opportunity to make a move is never something you wait for, but something you create yourself.

Or, to put it another way, to proactively turn the timing of your move into the optimal timing.

She patiently waited until Margot was alone. She pressed her left hand against the rudder, preparing to use that skill—[Illogical].

That skill, which she thought had 3 points of luck was too expensive at the time.

Was she lucky? She seemed alright.

During his wanderings, he met two good friends, and when his wanderings ended, he met a very capable teacher.

Although she has spent most of her time in pain since her transmigration, she has asked herself in the quiet of the night: if she were given another chance, would she still follow Zhu Ri?

The answer is yes.

She would rather be thrown into the arena, rather be subjected to one difficult trial after another, rather face the grumpy face and bad temper of Zhu Ri than waste time aimlessly on the riverbank under the bridge.

She considers herself lucky.

She can afford to exchange 3 points of luck for a skill, and she can recover in 7 days—although she doesn't know if the time in Starry Sea Day is any different from the time in this world.

She whispered as she watched Margot enter her private lounge and close the door, "Skill scrolls should be kept by the boots you take off."

The sound of waves echoed around the corner, and a deep blue ship's rudder came into view.

Even though she was somewhat prepared, Yu Xunge was still taken aback by the entrance special effects. She panicked and anxiously tried to scatter the things.

Fortunately, Margot did not come out.

After distorting her perception and waiting for ten seconds, Yu Xunge used the [Stealth] skill of the earring, walked out from a corner, walked to Margot's lounge, and pushed open the door to enter.

Each employee in this small building has their own private lounge, which includes a toilet, bathtub, dressing room, and bed—it's practically a small living room.

She didn't have to worry about anyone following her in; the nobles' sense of boundaries was sometimes quite comforting.

Bending down to pick up the three scrolls from the side of the magical boots, Yu Xunge left without looking back.

On her way back to hideout number 15, she saw the names of the three skill books.

[Unverified], [Wait, there's still hope], [Dizziness].

These are SSS-level disguise skills, A-level healing skills, and A-level melee control skills.

She is no longer a newbie who has just arrived in this world. Although she has not yet awakened her magic, it does not mean that she cannot learn and use skills.

But just like props, she can only learn and use skills that do not require magic power to use.

Of the three scrolls in his hand, only the first and third could be opened. After putting away the healing skill, Yu Xunge learned the remaining two skill scrolls without hesitation.

The moment a disguise technique is mastered, its true nature is revealed.

【Unverified】(SS): Can disguise yourself as any creature you have been in contact with for more than 24 hours, lasting for 2 hours. If no creature suspects you within 2 hours, the skill duration will be refreshed immediately. During the disguise, any detection skills below SSS level will be ineffective against you. Each use consumes 5% of your health, and the cooldown time is 4 hours.

【Stun】(A): Use this skill to strike the target. There is a 50% chance to stun the target for 3 seconds. Cooldown time: 1 minute.
