After Turning Into A Little Skeleton, I Got Contracted By A Goddess

Chapter 217 Trap And Bait

[I see!]

Zhou Mingrui's eyes turned cold. Yan Wuyue's intention was clear. She was prepared to severely injure the shadow leopard clan and teach them a lesson!

[Shadow leopards are a race that will be proud of killing their prey once they have confirmed their identity. Unable to kill their prey will be a disgrace to all beings, and they might even commit suicide because of this.]

Yan Wuyue's eyes were cold. [Especially if you fight with them and injure them, then it will really be a fight to the death!]

[However, there is a way to solve this situation. That is to let them know the taste of blood!]

Zhou Mingrui twisted his neck upon hearing that. Yan Wuyue's sudden change made his blood boil.

[Then how are we going to catch them? They look like they're very difficult to deal with.] Zhou Mingrui pressed.

[I naturally have a way to deal with this. Just watch.] Yan Wuyue's face showed an extremely confident look.

Zhou Mingrui was also surprised. Hence, he began to look forward to it.

Next, Yan Wuyue chose a relatively flat area. Then, she and Zhou Mingrui chopped down the surrounding trees.

[Isn't this an obvious trap? How can shadow leopards fall for it?] Zhou Mingrui asked as he cleaned up.

[Normally, that would be the case, but since I've said so, I naturally have a way to solve this problem.] The corners of Yan Wuyue's mouth curled up, revealing a look of confidence.

Since she had already said that, Zhou Mingrui had no reason to say anything more. Hence, he continued watching Yan Wuyue's operation.

First of all, Yan Wuyue took out the box from her space after cutting down all the trees.

Zhou Mingrui took a look and realized that the box this time was different from the previous one. It was smaller in size, but the surface of the box had more complicated patterns.

When she opened the box, it was actually the same as the powder from before. There were glass tubes stored inside.

However, this time, the glass tubes were filled with all kinds of liquids.

[What the hell is this?] Zhou Mingrui asked curiously.

[These are all the inducers and shielding agents I've made in advance. They're specially made to target all sorts of monsters.] Yan Wuyue answered as she picked up the glass tubes.

[What? Inducers? Shielding agents?] Zhou Mingrui asked in surprise.

[Inducers are specially made to target a certain type of monster. It's a scent that the other party wants to capture at all costs.]

[A shielding agent is something that can specifically shield the senses of a certain type of monster. It can prevent that type of monster from tracking you for a certain period of time.]

After hearing Yan Wuyue's explanation, Zhou Mingrui's curiosity was piqued. [Did you come up with all this by yourself?]

Yan Wuyue stopped, and her eyes had a trace of reminiscence.

[Before I was reborn, and before I had fully grown up, a senior in the army taught me this. Unfortunately, he died under the siege of mutated beasts not long after.]

No matter how stupid Zhou Mingrui was, he could tell. He could only helplessly say, [I'm sorry for making you think of something sad.]

Yan Wuyue suddenly laughed and said, [You're wrong. Have you forgotten that I'm reborn now? That means that the senior from before is still alive. I should be happy.]

[That's true.] Only then did Zhou Mingrui react.

[So, in this life, I won't let this happen again. Since I've been given this opportunity, I'll do my best to protect the people I want to protect.] Yan Wuyue said with a determined look.

[I'll help you fulfill your wish. Don't worry.] Zhou Mingrui consoled.

[Thank you.] Yan Wuyue laughed happily.

As the two of them talked, Yan Wuyue finally finished mixing the potions in her hands.

[Be prepared. Once I use the potion, we'll be surrounded by shadow leopards.] Yan Wuyue reminded him.

[Yeah, I'm always ready. Don't worry.] Zhou Mingrui said as he scanned his surroundings.

Upon hearing the response, Yan Wuyue immediately sprinkled the medicine on Zhou Mingrui's body.

[What?] Zhou Mingrui was taken aback.

[What's wrong? The potion must be sprinkled out to release its smell. Otherwise, how can it attract those shadow leopards?] Yan Wuyue asked, raising her eyebrows.

[No, I'm asking why you sprinkle it on me.] Zhou Mingrui spread his hands and asked.

[Do you think it should be sprinkled on me?] Yan Wuyue asked directly.

[No, can't it be sprinkled on the ground?] Zhou Mingrui pointed to the ground and asked.

[Are you stupid? If you sprinkle it on the ground, most of it will be absorbed by the soil, and the effect will be greatly reduced!] Yan Wuyue ridiculed.

[Or do you want me to sprinkle it on myself?] Yan Wuyue asked, squinting.

Zhou Mingrui had no choice but to admit it. [Yes, you didn't do anything wrong. You were right to spill it on me]

Yan Wuyue snorted and said, [Don't be so aggrieved. I've thought about it for you. You're a half-energy form. As long as you turn into energy, you can completely remove the smell.]

[Oh yeah, I suddenly forgot about that.] Zhou Mingrui laughed and said in embarrassment.

[I really don't know what you're thinking sometimes. Alright, get ready for battle.] Yan Wuyue was no longer in the mood to ridicule him. She reminded Zhou Mingrui to be ready for battle.

Zhou Mingrui did not continue after hearing that. Instead, he conjured his energy shield and energy weapon and began to be on guard against his surroundings.

In less than three minutes, Zhou Mingrui sensed that some extremely hidden figures had appeared around him. However, they were a little far away.

[It's starting. The number has already reached thirteen.] Yan Wuyue reminded him.

[Why can't I sense the exact amount?] Zhou Mingrui was puzzled.

[Carefully sense the changes in the surrounding environment and the special changes in the air. These are important factors that can help you make a judgment.] Yan Wuyue quickly reminded him.

[H-how do I judge this?] Zhou Mingrui was confused when he heard that. A special change in the air?

[You won't be able to learn it in a short time even if I tell you now. You should be on guard and ready to face the enemy at any time. There are already 23 of them.] Yan Wuyue reminded him.

[Okay.] Zhou Mingrui stopped talking. Instead, he focused all his attention and began to be on guard.

In the meantime, Zhou Mingrui pondered for a moment and began to pay attention to his surroundings.

Then, he relaxed his state of mind. Sure enough, he noticed a special movement, but he didn't see the shadow leopard at all.

However, he could sense a series of blurry figures walking around him. These figures were obviously shadow leopards.

Although Zhou Mingrui's talents and skills had been sealed, he could still control his spiritual power. Furthermore, the stone tablet also taught him how to use his spiritual power to probe.

As soon as he thought of it, Zhou Mingrui immediately began to use the secret technique he had inherited from the stone tablet.
