Chapter 552: Chapter 435: Methods

The monster lightly floated down.

It hovered outside the cow’s prison and barked,

"Don’t cause any trouble, otherwise, I’ll make you suffer endless destruction."

The cow squirted a mouthful of saliva at the monster’s face and mocked,

"You can’t finish me off, you can only stand outside and talk big, blowing me chilly."

The monster "hmphed", snatched a sharp spear from the Void, and stabbed repeatedly at the pen.

The cow was stabbed until it was covered in blood, emitting increasingly angry roars.

It charged repeatedly, trying to break open the pen, but was struck by the Power on the bars, convulsing all over, it fell to the ground.

"Still acting tough?" A look of scornful amusement emerged on the monster’s face.

The cow belched a mouthful of blood and propped itself up with its hooves, stubbornly saying, "Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west..."

It didn’t get to finish its lines before it could no longer hold itself up and fell to the ground.

At that moment, another voice rang out from the Void:

"Come back and help me."

——That was the voice of the Feeding Demon Master!

Wu Xiaode squatted in the corner, trying hard to recall the scene when he first saw the Feeding Demon Master to confirm this fact.

The Time Corpse’s Parasite’s expression halted, and he did not thrust his spear forward.

"What’s the matter now?"

It asked irritably.

"That guy kissed Shen Feixue in front of Little Wu and said he didn’t like men," said the Feeding Demon Master.

Double Demons were silent for a while.

——For humans, when seeking a partner, if the inclination is not the same, they cannot come together.

This sentence killed the path for cultivating feelings with Wu Xiaode.

"I’m afraid we have to reverse time again," said the Feeding Demon Master.

"Humans are really troublesome, I’m on my way."

The monster said, giving the cow another glance.

——This cow is trapped in the prison, no matter how much it plays tricks, it can’t escape anyway.

Forget it.

With that thought, the monster surged into the air and vanished with a flash.

The prison returned to silence.

Chris said with glee, "Little Wu, you’re so clever, the first thing that monster protected must be the most precious——let’s go steal that flag!"

"Alright!"

The two of them sneaked up to that prison and peered inside through the bars.

——It was a white flag, erected in the center of the prison, fluttering in the wind.

"I’m going to make a move."

Chris changed into a set of nightwear, holding a burlap sack in her hands, and said excitedly and nervously.

"How do we get through this pen?" Wu Xiaode asked.

"Whether it’s a door or a pen, or even a safe——there’s nothing that can stop us fairies, this is the Power we are born with, so I can just steal directly," said Chris.

"How will we escape?" Wu Xiaode asked again.

"Once we grab the item, we immediately rush out the bronze door, and then I’ll use teleportation to take you away," Chris said.

"Perfect," Wu Xiaode nodded.

Seeing Wu Xiaode agreed, Chris excitedly hopped down from his shoulder and landed in front of the pen.

"Going in now," said Chris.

"Hold on," Wu Xiaode suddenly spoke up.

"What’s wrong? Is there something else?" asked Chris in surprise.

A thoughtful expression appeared on Wu Xiaode’s face.

It took several moments before he said softly:

"I think there are other things we could do, otherwise, there could still be problems, like..."

He crouched down and whispered something into the fairy’s ear.

The little fairy listened intently, her eyes gradually widening.

They discussed for a little while longer.

"Go for it," Wu Xiaode cheered on the little fairy.

He stepped on bronze hands, streaking through the air, and retreated to a dim corner.

The glazed colors of light from "Evernight City" and the dark mist from the monster still enveloped him.

Chris stood on the platform of the prison, assuming a stance ready to charge.

"We can start now!"

Wu Xiaode’s voice transmitted.

"Here I go!" Chris screamed, dashing directly through the gap in the bars into the prison.

She grabbed the white flag and shoved it forcefully into the burlap sack——

The several meters long flag immediately shrank and was packed into the sack.

Success!

And it wasn’t over yet——

Chris did not hesitate, flashing out of that prison, passing through another set of bars, and landed inside another prison.

In this prison, there was a shining gemstone floating in mid-air.

Chris didn’t even look, grabbing it and stuffing it into the sack, and immediately ran to the next prison.

Buzzing, buzzing, buzzing——

A shrill alarm sounded throughout the entire chamber!

In that moment, Chris had already stolen dozens of items in succession.

"No more stealing, let’s move to the last step!"

Wu Xiaode covertly transmitted his voice.

Chris paused mid-movement, landing inside the cow’s prison.

The cow widened its eyes and cried, "Moo—"

"Moo your head!"

Chris grabbed the cow’s ear and stuffed it into the burlap sack as well.

Her speed suddenly surged, like a streak of lightning, and she landed right before the tightly shut bronze door.

"I just came to use the bathroom, I’m leaving now!"

Chris shouted at the door.

Boom—

The heavy bronze door opened a crack.

Chris directly squeezed through.

The moment the door closed—

She turned and threw something back.

Bang!!!

The bronze door shut.

The object she threw fell inside the door, quickly enlarging and returning to its original form.

It was a cow!

The cow sat down on its behind, looked at the closed bronze door behind it, then around at its surroundings, a look of utter perplexity on its face.

At the same time.

The Void opened, and the Parasite of the Time Corpse appeared once again.

The monster’s gaze met that of the cow.

The cow’s pupils instantly turned blood red.

"Moo—watch me kill you!"

It roared as it leaped into the sky, charging at the monster in mid-air.

However, at that instant, the monster didn’t even bother to look at it.

—Because dozens of items had been stolen!

"Get lost!"

The monster barked.

The cow was instantly knocked back, returning to sit motionless on the ground in front of the bronze door.

Seizing the moment, the monster flew forward, laid its hand upon the cow, and commanded:

"Rewind the light and shadow!"

In an instant, streams of light and shadow emerged from the cow, displaying the prior scene of the cow being stolen by Chris, along with Chris rushing through the bronze door and tossing the cow back in.

"Has she already escaped? Little does she know..."

The monster muttered to itself, swept its body up to the highest point of the entire prison, and pressed its hand hard against the bronze-colored ceiling.

Click.

A faint sound.

The ceiling opened to reveal a unique prison cell.

Inside this cell also stood a large flag.

Unlike the flag that Chris had stolen before—

This flag was black.

Seeing that this flag was still there, the monster breathed a sigh of relief.

It proceeded to close the ceiling again and then descended into the cell where the white flag had been stored, looking inside.

It was completely empty.

"Humph, as expected, they came to steal the Time Corpse... They should have been right here just now."

The monster talked to itself.

—It turns out that the last time it returned, it had deliberately stood there.

This created a deception—

The thieves hiding in the shadows, seeing its actions, were misled into believing the white flag was the actual Time Corpse!

Now.

The thief was long gone.

The true Time Corpse had not been stolen!

The monster thought for a few moments, then suddenly recited a spell.

The black lattice of light surrounding the prison instantly disappeared.

The monster reached out, took the black flag out, and dropped down—

It landed in the cell that contained the white flag, planted the black flag there, and recited the spell once more.

Bronze runes flew in from all directions, landing on the black flag.

In a flash.

The black flag turned into a white flag.

The monster looked closely at the white flag, nodding in satisfaction.

"Even if it were an entity skilled in all forms of identification, it could not discern whether it is real or fake."

Even Wu Xiaode, hidden in the shadows, had to praise the monster’s cunning mind.

The stolen white flag was a fake!

Now, by placing another white flag here, any thief coming back would definitely think this one was fake too!

However—

This white flag was real.

The monster didn’t stop there, it flew up and placed another white flag inside the cage on the ceiling.

Only after completing all this did it clasp its hands together and utter solemnly:

"Let all who have taken a flag and their kind never again take a flag from this prison; this shall be the law of the cage manifesting, so be it!"

In that instant.

Invisible ripples spread throughout the entire Void.

Wu Xiaode saw two lines of ice crystal characters appear before him:

"A new rule has emerged on your current map—"

"Those who have taken a flag, as well as their species, shall not take away any flag from within this prison cell henceforth, under penalty of death."

Wu Xiaode quickly read through them and inwardly commended the monster.

This monster was incredibly devious.

Even if Chris came back, she would have no clue how to steal the Time Corpse.

Fortunately—

He had been watching the whole time.
