Can you withstand the power of this sword strike, which has been used twice in the game?

"puff!"

The dagger pierced her flesh, and before blood could even flow, a flash of white light appeared before Bei Qi's eyes, and the dagger vanished in an instant.

Blood finally began to flow slowly from the wound. Becky didn't cover her neck; she just knelt there blankly, staring at Annie, whose expression remained unchanged.

It seems... she's been saved?

An Yi wasn't being soft-hearted; rather, he had already received the result of the test.

Just as Becky intuitively sensed, if she showed even the slightest hesitation or cowardice, Annie would kill her without hesitation.

Because that would mean that all the loyalty she had shown before was a pretense of a lie, and that all her actions were simply to survive.

Of course, wanting to live is not wrong.

What's wrong with wanting to live?

But if all she wants is to survive, then she can be full of loyalty, and she can be full of lies as well.

An Yi would show no mercy in killing the demon before her, even for the slightest uncertainty.

If he softens his heart, the one who pays the price might not just be a succubus, but twenty elite warriors, including himself.

However, Becky's actions did not demonstrate a will to survive.

It is a relentless pursuit of death.

An Yi told her to die, and she died, even showing a fanaticism for death in her final moments.

An Yi's execution was even a reward for her.

That's...that's too perverted.

I don't really understand the succubus's thought process; she gets excited when she's about to die.

It can now be confirmed that none of this was acting; the other party did not understand An Yi's personality and was unable to learn An Yi's thoughts during the conversation.

Even gambling with your life requires stakes.

The bargaining chips could be the intelligence she possesses, the other party's psychology, or even her own personal value.

After Becky revealed the information she possessed, she was unable to control Annie's mind.

All she could gamble on was her own value to the heroes.

Is it valuable?

It seems there really isn't.

Should we ask her for help? Should we let her know more about the hero so we can report it?

Ultimately, her death was far more useful than her being alive; keeping her around might have led to the leakage of intelligence.

Knowing this, the other party would not risk their life by acting.

However... it's also possible that she was gambling with her life, and then she thought about the possibility that An Yi might let her go, so she got excited?

After eliminating all possibilities, the impossible becomes possible.

If An Yi hadn't stopped, the other party would indeed have died here today, so at least she gained a little bit of trust.

"If you doubt someone, don't use them; if you use someone, don't doubt them." An Yi needs to test her further to be sure that her choice not to kill her was the right one.

It cannot be denied that a controllable succubus has considerable value.

With their magic power of up to 300 points, coupled with their innate charm, An Yi can minimize contact with demons while obtaining what she wants.

In her past life, An Yi would simply steal whatever she wanted, but in this life, her clandestine operation has only just begun, and she can't afford to attract too much attention.

Thinking it over, Annie raised her finger and pointed at Becky.

A drop of clear water condensed between his fingers and floated in front of Becky: "Eat this, it will help you heal your wounds."

"Yes!"

Becky put the water droplet in her mouth without the slightest hesitation and swallowed it.

“For the next few days, you will stay in your residence and are not allowed to go anywhere,” Annie said.

“Yes!” Becky nodded vigorously.

"get out."

"Yes! Thank you, Sword Master, for sparing my life!!"

Becky bowed deeply, then hugged her knees and rolled out of the hall.

It slammed against the threshold and yelled, then rolled out of the hall with all its might.

An Yi: "..."

What I just fed her was a droplet of slime sword.

In this way, Annie will be able to sense her location.

Whether she stays at home and does nothing in the next few days will determine Annie's next decision regarding her life or death.

If she were to continue investigating the heroes, or run off somewhere else to deliver a message, An Yi would kill her before that happened.

If she obediently follows orders, she won't make any small movements in places where An Yi can't observe.

Then, An Yi can instruct her to complete some tasks that will not affect the heroes' actions.

This also allows Annie to begin making some contact with Mel's organization.

Thinking about it, An Yi started washing the ground with the slime sword.

The succubus's bodily fluids left on the ground need to be cleaned up.

Chapter 151: A Path to Death Already Begun!

Demons are untrustworthy.

However, this does not mean that it has no value at all.

Whether Mel's group is harmful to humans is not something An Yi can decide on a whim.

Using the other party to obtain resources from the demon race, without interfering with the heroes' activities, is actually a good option.

In other words, the heroes carry out their activities normally, while An Yi prevents them from obtaining information and also tries to gain benefits from them.

There were no other heroes to assist her; everything was handled by An Yi herself.

The worst-case scenario he could imagine was that he would be framed.

Of course, he wouldn't put himself in danger, and maintaining distance from the other party was very important.

If the other party could think about it carefully, they would realize that their organization's position is actually very awkward.

They are a group of succubi who need to help humans while avoiding encounters with the heroes.

Not every hero knows the hidden story. If it were any other hero, upon first encountering a succubus, they might rush to kill her as soon as their character's information appeared in their encyclopedia.

It's not just demons who will take away their living space; heroes will too.

This is one of the main reasons why An Yi was wary.

The other party might waver because the succubus was killed by the hero.

In the territory of the demons, they wouldn't be attacked by demons just because they saw them.

At most, it's just a fleeting... attraction.

As An Yi walked along the road, she thought about many things.

His initial goal was not to make these succubi grow stronger, but simply to use a small number of succubi to make more succubi leave human territory.

Since most succubi live in different cities, and their harm to humans is not too direct, they should be considered a low-priority race among the demon races that need to be defeated.

The other party treated him as their master, and initially he did have some ideas about it.

But that's all too long now; succubi are a very intelligent and cunning race.

Could it be that they claim to be loyal to An-i, but behind his back they're saying something completely different?

The past is the past, and the present is the present. You can't compare a succubus who has truly entered the demon race with the succubi of the past.

Actually, Annie had many more questions for Becky.

For example, how many succubi like her are there in this city?

If there are many succubi like this, then capturing just one will not be enough.

If she's not the only one, where are the others? Do they live in the same place as her?

Two more days passed quickly.

As planned, the heroes who obtained the first wave of supplies are about to proceed to the next step.

That is, to explore the path.

I've already spent nearly ten days learning the language, while the original plan was only for two weeks.

In other words, after the second resupply, we will begin to venture deeper into the demon realm.

Before that, highly agile warriors will set off first to find the shortest and safest path to move.

We need to consider not only the issue of entering, but also the time required to leave the demon realm, otherwise it will affect the resupply time.

During the two days that the highly agile warriors began scouting, the other warriors did not venture out.

From the perspective of the demon nobles, the sudden disappearance of the highly agile heroes meant that the heroes had finished the final "search".

The signs indicate either that they couldn't find anyone and chose to leave, or that they found someone and there was no need for them to stay outside.

After Milu returned, she went to "retrieve" some of the demons' books, and the heroes stayed together to study the children's books.

Then he left with the other highly agile warriors and headed to a city deeper within the demon realm.

The heroes dispatched are the [Hero of the Thrust], the [Hero of the Halberd], the [Hero of Thought], and the [Hero of the Star].

The Fighting Heroes Squad did not deploy any heroes. Their squad was quite unique, as they did not have any heroes with high agility.

Unlike most teams that have one warrior and one tank, this squad has two warriors, and both the Fighting Warrior and the Lion Warrior are warriors with high strength and high resilience.

What makes them truly unique is that the two warriors' agility is not provided by attributes, but rather by the ice created by the Ice Warrior, allowing them to move nimbly.

The Flute Hero can also provide certain attribute boosts, strengthening the team's weaknesses.
