Chapter 444: Chapter 443 Timely Rain Arrives - The Solution to the Problem
After realizing it was Si Keke calling, Lu Zixun showed some surprise in his eyes.
This guy was supposed to be in retreat, right? Did his call today mean he had made a breakthrough?
As soon as the call was connected, before Lu Zixun could speak, Si Keke rattled off, "Da Ju, I’ve broken through to A-rank. I couldn’t find you in Zone 13, where did you go off to have fun?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Zixun’s brows lifted, "Aren’t you usually good at divination? Why not calculate it?"
Lu Zixun shouldn’t have brought that up, as he was met by Si Keke’s aggrieved voice.
"You have no idea. Ever since I reached S-rank, I can only divine twice a day. Any more will damage my Spiritual Energy Acupoint irreparably."
Lu Zixun, unaware of such matters, was also unclear on what exactly a Lifeplay Master did.
Before Lu Zixun could say another word, Si Keke continued, "Being in retreat for a month almost bored me to death. By the way, where did you run off to? Demon Country’s construction is going quite well; I didn’t expect you to have this ability. You really missed out by joining STO."
It was like gunfire, constant and uninterrupted, causing Lu Zixun to feel a bit of pain in his ears. He said helplessly, "I’m in Zone 11. Oh, right, let me ask you something."
He paused, then asked, "Do you know how to break a Spirit Locking Array?"
Thinking that Si Keke, as a fortuneteller, should have at least a bit of knowledge about arrays, Lu Zixun cautiously brought it up.
"Spirit Locking Array?"
From her room arranged by Ge Changming in a hotel, Si Keke instantly sat up on her bed, "You’re not telling me you’ve been locked up in a Zone 11 prison, are you?"
What kind of conversation was this...
Lu Zixun, struggling to keep up with Si Keke’s erratic train of thought, licked his front paw, "No, just that someone wants to use this thing to catch me."
"Umm..."
There came a thoughtful sound from the other end of the phone, and after a while, Si Keke finally said, "The Spirit Locking Arrays typically etched into foundations require the destruction of five nodes to be rendered ineffective; if you’re thinking about getting in to destroy it, you probably won’t be able to. But such arrays don’t know who’s friend or foe; they only indiscriminately attack within a certain range."
Coughing lightly, Si Keke went on, "To get around this, whoever sets up the array usually leaves a back door to differentiate between friend and foe."
After hearing Si Keke’s explanation, Lu Zixun instantly understood.
To destroy the Spirit Locking Array, five foundation nodes were needed to be destroyed, an impossible feat.
Since that path was not viable, it was necessary to find a so-called back door.
At that moment, Xiong Kang, who was listening in on speakerphone, was struck with a realization.
Employees working in the prison typically had a work badge, which might be the "backdoor" Si Keke referred to.
"The method for checking the backdoor is usually in something like a badge, anyway, it won’t be large," Si Keke suggested, yawning.
Hearing Lu Zixun’s question indicated to her that the situation in Zone 11 was not good, and as a "noob," she was not interested in becoming part of the mess.
Not having counted on Si Keke meddling anyway, Lu Zixun nodded slightly, "Okay, thanks. I’ll treat you to a meal when you’re back."
After hanging up, the corners of Lu Zixun’s mouth lifted slightly. This call
was quite like a godsend.
Since a Spirit Locking Array was deployed, even if Lu Zixun entered and was unable to use Spiritual Energy, he wouldn’t be a regular person easily dealt with.
It would undoubtedly require a Spiritual Ability User who could operate normally within the Spirit Locking Array.
At first, Lu Zixun hadn’t considered this, but now, it was undoubtedly the key to breaking the situation.
"I’ll have people look for them. I still know a few informants in Zone 11," said Tang Tianyu, patting his chest and ensuring the task.
"Hmm, let me know when you find them."
After this event, none of the three were in the mood for drinking, and they all left to attend to their tasks.
Xiong Kang went off to employ both gentle and harsh measures, while Tang Tianyu left to find the informants.
Only Lu Zixun lay leisurely on Mrs. Tang’s legs, watching TV.
The fact that Gong Muqing had not been assassinated would certainly be known to the Three Prefectures, yet they persisted in setting up the Spirit Locking Array; perhaps...
Lu Zixun narrowed his eyes, thinking maybe he could pretend to have lost his Spiritual Energy and see if he could get some information out of them.
Enjoying Mrs. Tang’s gentle strokes and the sound of the television, Lu Zixun’s eyelids began to droop.
Eventually, Lu Zixun gave up resisting and started dozing off on Mrs. Tang’s legs.
As consciousness blurred, Lu Zixun thought, This is the life a cat should have.
When the early hours of the morning arrived, Xiong Kang and Tang Tianyu both returned home.
Yawning, Lu Zixun looked at Xiong Kang’s dark expression and chuckled lightly; it seemed the carrot and stick approach was futile.
On the other hand, Tang Tianyu’s expression was much more pleasant, which likely meant that he had located those people.
Grabbing a glass of water from the table and gulping it down, Xiong Kang spoke with a grim expression, "The people of the Three Prefectures are too ambitious, especially Wang Duli, who has changed too much."
Lu Zixun, not knowing why Xiong Kang had said this, kept quiet, waiting for him to continue.
"They’re not just trying to catch you, but they also want to use this method to swallow up both Zone 13 and Zone 14. I really don’t know where they got the audacity from," he continued with a scornful look on his face, his tone cold, "They even threatened Sha Fei, claiming that if Sha Fei tried to interfere, neither Zhenfei nor the Three Prefectures would participate in the battle for supremacy."
Lu Zixun’s ears twitched, and he laughed softly, "Starting from the establishment of the Three Prefectures, to the split and alliance with Zhenfei, weren’t these events expected?"
"It’s expected, yes," Xiong Kang took a deep breath, obviously angered, "but it’s also beyond reason. Joining forces with Zhenfei is tantamount to asking a tiger for its skin."
"Common sense is known, but interests take precedence," Lu Zixun said, then turned his gaze to Tang Tianyu, "Old Tang, did you find that person’s location?"
"They didn’t even try to hide, I found out with just ten thousand Crimson Coins," Tang Tianyu shrugged and passed Lu Zixun a piece of paper, "Here are the participants in tomorrow’s Lock Cat Spirit event; they all carry badges."
After memorizing the locations on the paper, Lu Zixun’s eyes gradually darkened.
With the badge, the Spirit Locking Array would be as good as invisible to him.
"Moving tonight?" Xiong Kang asked, looking at Lu Zixun.
"I’ll go alone, you guys rest," Lu Zixun smiled, "The main event is tomorrow."
