Reincarnated As A Fox With System (WN)
chapter-603

Little Loki conveyed the information it got from its two [Phantom Splitter] clones to Tang Li Xue.

Tang Li Xue frowned deeply as she tried to think of a way to break this confusing formation.

She could actually use her [Mapping Sense] skill to slowly survey this entire deeper area of Human Palace and find a gap to break this confusing formation, but it would take too much time!

The thing Tang Li Xue lacked most right now was time!

Because the fire was spreading rapidly in many places and buildings around the periphery of Human Palace, human troops had become too busy to put out the fire right now.

This might give Tang Li Xue some time to move around freely to search for the Human Race Flag in this deeper area of the Human Palace, but it also gave their fox army a momentary advantage to invade the Human Palace.

Although it looked like their fox army side seemed to have an upper hand at this moment, but this situation was bound to not last for long.

Because those millions of human troops and their human generals would have certainly already rushed on their way to return to this Human Palace!

If Tang Li Xue failed to find the Human Race Flag until they came back, then it would be a checkmate for their Fox Race.

"Damn it~! Is there something I can do to find the Human Race Flag quicker?!" Tang Li Xue muttered with a tone filled with frustration.

Then a light of inspiration suddenly flashed in Tang Li Xue's mind.

Her topaz blue eyes shone with excitement like a pair of blue stars as she slapped her forehead with her paw and said while laughing in embarrassment: "Ah, I am really stupid~! How could I forget that I still have that~?! Ahahahaha~!"

After calming down, Tang Li Xue looked around carefully to find her target.

Even though, the guard in the deeper area of Human Palace became a lot thinner than before, but there were still quite a lot of patrolling guards roaming around.

However, no one of those patrolling guards realized that Tang Li Xue and Little Loki were running around right in front of their eyes since both Tang Li Xue and Little Loki were in an invisible state.

"Little Loki help me to kill all of those patrolling guards quickly, but remember to leave that guard captain alive~! Do you understand?" Tang Li Xue communicated with Little Loki through [Lock-On Telepathy].

"Mew Nyaaaww~!" (Okay, that's easy~!)

Tang Li Xue nodded to Little Loki as she suddenly turned off her [Ethereal Form] and unleashed several flying swords with [Energy Manipulation] from behind!

PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!

In one sneak attack, Tang Li Xue instantly took down more than five patrolling guards at once!

But that was far from enough!

If one of these patrolling guards had enough time to whistle, many other guards would certainly come here to besiege Tang Li Xue and Little Loki soon.

Therefore, Tang Li Xue and Little Loki must take all of them down before they can whistle to call their comrades!

Little Loki already summoned back its two [Phantom Splitter] clones, and the three of them hastily launched [Scythe Claw Qi] simultaneously to the patrolling guards!

PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!

After taking the lives of three patrolling guards, Little Loki and its two [Phantom Splitter] clones used [Instant Teleportation] to freely shuttle around unpredictably while kept unleashing their [Scythe Claw Qi] to kill the other patrolling guards!

Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue did not remain idle and used the [Moonlight Flickering Flash Step] to appear right in front of those patrolling guards instantly and unleashed her [Moonlight Flash] to decimate several patrolling guards at once!

Those tens of patrolling guards did not even have any time to react or unsheath their weapons as all of them got slain by Tang Li Xue and Little Loki in only a few seconds, leaving only the guard captain alone.

The guard captain hastily tried to whistle, but it was already a bit too late since Tang Li Xue was already so close to him.

"Stop moving~!" Tang Li Xue used her [Mystic Whisper] to control the guard captain without any hesitation.

After Tang Li Xue's [Mystic Whisper] penetrated directly into his consciousness, the guard captain halted his movement completely like a statue.

Tang Li Xue immediately checked her energy consumption after using [Mystic Whisper] on the guard captain and sighed in relief.

"Thankfully, the energy consumption is almost negligible. But it makes sense since the cultivation level of this guard captain is not high, so his Spirit stat should be much lower than mine." Tang Li Xue murmured her conclusion.

Since the energy consumption was within an acceptable range for Tang Li Xue, she gave a more complicated order to the guard captain with her [Mystic Whisper]: "Lead the way to the room where the Human Race Flag is kept~!"

The guard captain immediately turned around with a blank look and walked away.

Tang Li Xue brought Little Loki and quickly followed the guard captain from behind while checking the energy consumption again.

This time, the amount of energy consumption was more than ten times than before.

Tang Li Xue confirmed her previous guess that the simpler the command given to the target would consume less energy, while the more complicated the command given to the target would consume a lot more energy.

Also, suicide commands like 'kill yourself' or 'stab your throat' would need the user to have several times higher Spirit stat than the target since the user must be able to completely overwrite the target's subconscious and survival instinct.

Tang Li Xue sighed as she complained: "This [Mystic Whisper] is way more complicated to master than I thought. Oh, well... Let's just leave that for later, since it would surely need a lot of trial and error. I have something even more important to do right now!"

When they almost ran into another team of patrolling guards, Tang Li Xue and Little Loki quickly activated their stealth skills and turned invisible to hide from them.

The guard captain of the other patrolling guard team smiled at the guard captain who was mind-controlled by Tang Li Xue and politely greeted him: "Hello, good day brother~!"

Of course, the mind-controlled guard captain did not reply and kept walking with an expressionless blank look on his face.

The other guard captain instantly frowned suspiciously and tried to interrogate the mind-controlled guard captain, but the mind-controlled guard captain completely ignored him again.

"This does not look good at all! It seems we can only silence them all! Let's do it, Little Loki~!" Tang Li Xue said to Little Loki with telepathy.

"Apprehend him~!" The other guard captain ordered his troops to catch the mind-controlled guard captain.

PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!

Tang Li Xue and Little Loki immediately made their move and launched a sneak attack from behind!

Both Tang Li Xue and Little Loki easily slew them all without any difficulty since the strength of these patrolling guards and their guard captain were only at ordinary troop level.

But their problem was not that…

What gave Tang Li Xue a headache was that the mind-controlled guard captain would certainly meet with the other patrolling guards again later, and those patrolling guards would definitely get suspicious of him again if the mind-controlled guard captain did not reply to their greetings like before.

"Aisssh~! There is no other choice… Then just forget about this stealth thing and let's break in blatantly~!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs and said with a cold tone.

Just like what Tang Li Xue had expected, the other team of patrolling guards greeted the mind-controlled guard captain, and they instantly became suspicious of him.

Tang Li Xue and Little Loki silenced all of them again before they could do anything.

After doing this for the fourth time, the other guard team accidentally saw Tang Li Xue and Little Loki was currently slaying the passing-by patrolling guards from afar.

The sound of the whistle began to spread around the Human Palace and the number of patrolling guards quickly increased by many folds after some time.

Tang Li Xue and Little Loki could no longer hide since many other patrolling guards quickly found out that something was not right with the mind-controlled guard captain.

Tang Li Xue and Little Loki tried to silence all of them again, but there were simply too many of them this time, so some of them had time to call out for more reinforcement.

Tang Li Xue could hear clearly the sound of many footsteps coming closer toward her.

It might not take long for her and Little Loki to get completely surrounded by so many patrolling guards!

Just when Tang Li Xue felt really anxious, the mind-controlled guard captain finally brought them to the place where the Human Race Flag was kept!

Tang Li Xue's panic instantly turned into delight when she saw a golden flag placed in the middle of the big hall.

Hundreds of patrolling guards already came and surrounded Tang Li Xue and Little Loki, but Tang Li Xue did not care and hastily activated her [Shadow Flash] to teleport directly to the Human Race Flag's shadow.

But when Tang Li Xue wanted to reach out her paws and grab the Human Race Flag...

RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!

"Damn it~! What else now?!" Tang Li Xue shouted in rage, but the extreme danger warning given by her [Extrasensory Perception] made her not dare to approach the Human Race Flag carelessly anymore.
