-- After Chu Yang’s and the Thorn’s teams reached a common agreement, the two groups departed, each going their own way. But how could they ever know that Su Luo had already recorded all their actions? sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ NʘvᴇlFɪre.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.
Su Luo didn’t waste time and swiftly went away after they left. Her objective wasn’t any of them, but the black-clothed person, 064, who had strayed from the Thorn team. This black-clothed 064 was pitiful. Everybody had already gathered long ago, while he was the only one still wandering around in a daze.
Su Luo let Little Fox Sable open the map.
Little Fox Sable had inherited Little Purple Sable’s automatic pathfinding capabilities. So even though Su Luo didn’t have a map on hand, the map of the Temple of the Abyss in the Little Fox Sable’s mind was clearer than anyone else’s.
Using the map Little Fox Sable shared with her, Su Luo scanned the overall situation, carefully looking over the map once. The shared map ability was the product of the spiritual pet fusion and had given Su Luo great benefits.
Now, she was looking at a small red dot in the distance to the south. That small red dot was all alone. The objective was extremely clear. Who could it be besides 064?
And what put Su Luo in a great mood was that 064 was speeding toward her position right now. The Thorn captain had probably already contacted him, calling him back.
Su Luo thought: ‘If I were to let 064 return to the Thorn’s group, I would no longer be able to contend with their strength. So, if I want to take him down, it needs to be before he rejoins the group.’
Su Luo’s current greatest advantage was Little Fox Sable’s shared map. Through this map, Su Luo could accurately know everybody's whereabouts. 064 was rushing over to where Su Luo was, and at the same time, Su Luo was also quickly heading to his position.
After Su Luo advanced for two hours, she came across a corner at the end of the path. This place was extremely well hidden. It was in a blind spot.
When 064 rushed over, he would need to turn a corner there. That was the ambush spot Su Luo chose. As long as 064 dropped his alertness by even a fraction, he would very likely fall into the trap.
The black-clothed person rushed by without any obstacles in his way. He never would have even imagined that Su Luo had a complete map and knew everyone’s positions, so he probably wasn’t on high alert.
Su Luo took out a green porcelain bottle from her space. Then she aimed at the street corner and poured out bits of powder on the ground here and there. She threw it all over the place in a seemingly disorganized manner, but it was actually the result of her precise calculations.
The powder was a light green color, but it couldn’t be made out at all in the darkness of night. Moreover, it didn’t have any scent, so noticing it was very unlikely.
After finishing the ambush, Su Luo’s lips curled into a smile while she looked at the map. Right now, the small red dot on the map was very close. It would arrive in just about ten minutes.
Su Luo’s figure quickly flashed to the shadow at the end of the path. She stuck her body close to the wall, and it was as if her whole body was enveloped in darkness. Her original vividness was adjusted to a minimum at this moment, such that even the sound of her heartbeat was suppressed to its lowest. She was completely silent, almost without any sign of life.
‘Soon.’
Su Luo counted silently.
‘Five kilometers.
Three kilometers.
One kilometer.
Five hundred meters.
Three hundred meters.
One hundred meters.’
She could see him get closer and closer.
