The Great Thief Chapter 254
If Lu Li could hear what they were saying, he would tell them nicely: “I’m not alone!”
Growing up as a poor boy in the lowest class of society, Lu Li had a tough mental fortitude. As long as he could survive, he would never confront someone because of small conflicts and indifferences between them.
Naturally, Lu Li was skilful at something that not many people were good at – holding a grudge.
If someone wronged him, he would remember that to his deathbed, even if he didn’t have the time to seek revenge.
Once the opportunity arose, his revenge would go above and beyond what they had done to him.
He was determined to treat the hundreds of Imperial Secret Services players to a pleasant surprise by gathering a great multitude of Spirits. If he could, he would have gone to the extent of luring the Spirit Lord out to them.
Although the Spirits were translucent, when they stacked up, they looked like a floating sheet of white paper.
Left and Right Eye were dumbfounded as they stared at the countless monsters that covered all of the land they could see.
It was their first time seeing so many monsters gathered together.
Once thousand, two thousand… no, five thousand! Maybe even more!
The monsters couldn’t see them, so they didn’t avoid them. When Lu Li dashed past them in his leopard form, they were completely submerged in a sea of undead monsters.
Speed decreases in Stealth…
They wanted to cancel their Stealth so that they could escape quicker. However, it was too late now because they were surrounded by the Spirit Army.
“Ah…”
Left and Right Eye had been afraid of death since they had first played games. The terrifying thing was the psychological effect of being drowned by so many monsters.
After a terrible cry, the two were revealed and immediately shredded into pieces.

The little leopard looked back and began moving faster.
He had been marked countless times by the Spirits so he didn’t have to worry about losing aggro.
Lu Li realised he had miscalculated because he didn’t predict that the Imperial Secret Service would send the two Thieves to scout out the area.
There was no point of regretting the situation; he had to start analysing the risks that came with this surprise.
If his transformation skills were discovered, everyone would be envious.
Even more people would hunt him for his bounty.
History would repeat itself and everything that had happened to Azure Sea Breeze in his past life would happen to Lu Li as well.
All the major guilds would have another reason to encourage others to hunt him down. Even the casual players would begin hunting for him if they were presented the image of a boastful player who relied on his overpowered ring to put down other people.
When that day came, there would be no Evil or Light Faction and no opposition. Everyone would come together as one to get rid of the No.1 player in the game.
Lu Li was already aware that he couldn’t hide his Druid God Ring forever.
When the time came, he would deal with it.
While assessing the situation, Lu Li came across the Imperial Secret Services players.
They were still mocking Swirling Left Eye and Staring Right Eye. Those two were always over-confident and up themselves; it wasn’t much of a surprise that they had been killed by monsters.
“Did you hear how they scared they were?” someone asked mockingly.
“What’s so scary about monsters? We have a 600-player group. Even if the monsters on the whole map were gathered here… Goddamn, why are there so many monsters…?” This scene reminded him of the time he went to watch the high tides. The sea of Spirits accurately represented the beautiful scenery.

They were the same as the violent waves, overcoming anything in their path.
Lu Li did not return back to human form – there was no point in hiding since he was already exposed. Besides, the agility and speed of his leopard form was enough to avoid most of the skills directed towards him.
Lu Li circled around the Imperial Secret Services players as thousands upon thousands of monsters began advancing towards them.
Even the idiots realised what Lu Li was doing.
“Everyone, spread out and retreat.”
Raging Wolf Blood was slow to react. As soon as he realised what was happening, he decisively ordered everyone to retreat.
What about killing Lu Li?
Assuming that they could kill him, which was quite unlikely, these Spirits wouldn’t simply return to where they had come from. They would immediately aggro onto the next closest player.
Raging Wolf Blood was flustered; he could only hope that some of them would survive.
The Speed of the Spirits was too fast to outrun. Even Lu Li, as a full dexterity Thief, needed leopard form to run from them. As for those in the Secret Imperial Service who played slow professions, they stood no chance of running away.
The Priests and Paladins were the first victims.
They tried to put up a fight for their lives, but they could do nothing against the Spirit army.
The LV20-25 Spirits dealt about 80-200 damage to players around the same level. Players with less than 2000 HP were immediately killed.
The Warlocks, Warriors and other professions soon followed in their inevitable death.
There were some Thieves and Druids who decided not to run, but to escape by Stealth. However, they were trapped by the dense group of Spirits like a group of fish in a net.
Stealth merely tricked the eyes; it wasn’t the same as completely vanishing.
Mages had teleport skills, but were quickly hunted down as well.
Druids, Shamans, Thieves…
Raging Wolf Blood was also trapped in the sea of Spirits.
Lu Li seemed like he was running around aimlessly, but he was actually circling around the Imperial Secret Service like a fisherman with a net.
“So merciless.” Azure Sea Breeze and the others came to the scene of people screaming and dying. They almost felt sympathetic towards this group of players.
Lu Li was no god. Even if a group of 600 players stood around for him to kill them, it would still take him a long time to finish them all off.
In reality, Lu Li wouldn’t even dare to show his face against a group of 100 players.
Moonlight was silent, but his mind was conflicted. This must have been the worst massacre in the history of Dawn. It was hard to watch, even for these skilled PVP players who would kill up to 100 players a day.
“How come he can transform into a leopard as well?” Hachi Chan could transform into a leopard with the same Children of the Forest skills. Besides their gender, the two leopards were identical.
“Hachi Chan, are you guys brothers and sisters?” Remnant Dream sternly said, as she looked at Lu Li, then back at Hachi Chan.
Remnant Dream thought about using the Tame Skill on Lu Li.
However, she decided against it when she thought about Lu Li’s human form. Hachi Chan was much cuter.
“Maybe it was a quest or something?” Azure Sea Breeze took a guess.
“Or maybe it’s an equip? It’s going to be rough from now on.”
Wandering sighed, feeling like he had been baited by Lu Li. Now, everyone would be on their tails to hunt for their bounty.

Interface
Welcome to the World-City of Thousel, the sixth iteration of life on the planet. These are the recordings of the people of Thousel. Thousel is believed to be the second longest iteration of life, and the overall most prosperous compared to what we know about the past five iterations. Medicine and technology have all progressed abundantly, and the world itself has been turned into one great city, governed and managed by the Governmental-Company Alliance, or the GCA.These particular recordings concern the discovery of a peculiar machine. When two very different people find themselves bound by the fate of one mysterious bot, life in the World-City begins to change… Interface is a cyberpunk webnovel set in an ecumenopolis world where people evolved with electro-sensory abilities. These senses shape the face of modern technology and life in a world where the three largest corporations run what has effectively become the government. Each of these three companies control various aspects of life in the city, and they all constantly vie for domain and power over one another.The world stands at the precipice of biological, technological, and historical breakthrough. After decades of study into microbiology, archaeology, and geology, it has been discovered that sentient life has lived on the planet multiple times over. These past peoples are referred to as the “prior iterations of life,” and it is believed that five great civilizations were constructed before the rise of the modern world. No one can be sure for certain what caused these peoples’ extinction long ago, and the theories range from simply dying off over time to massive tectonic fractures in the face of the planet. Advanced technology, far more complicated than anything the people possess today, has been uncovered in multiple locations. This has lead scholars to speculate on exactly how long each iteration of life survived and how far they progressed as a society. None of the companies have been able to find a way to make this ancient technology work for their own profit. It is as though they are each missing the final key needed to unlock these centuries old secrets. What could this knowledge reveal about the nature of life across every iteration? What power could it give to the one who wields it?Far from the investigation into the origin of life, two kids unlock a new mystery – one that ties their fates to the discovery of an old, mysterious robot. Suddenly, eyes begin to turn towards them as life in the city of Thousel changes wherever they go…

Pillars Between Us
It started with the dent left by the Forest Sprite; A small crack in the ice that encased his memories. Curtis knew that something was off, realizing that he wasn’t who he thought he was and— perhaps Ellis wasn’t the one meant for him. --It's a fantasy novel set in a world where people inhabit on pillars-- (think of m*necaft sky block, you'll get what I mean) -- then give it a hint of action, mystery and (twisted) romance-- and it's influenced by Japanese fantasy light novels (cuz I read a lot of em'). But I'm sure it's a weird one cuz the style of writing isn't the Japanese to English translated kind of style but rather the orthodox English novel kind of writing (which includes a bunch of errors and broken English thanks to me!). In any case, if you're up for it, just beware the story starts out pretty slow.. I mean-- back then, I was still inexperienced ok! I'm gettin' better along the way, Hmmph!

New Paris [a Modern-day LitRPG]
New Paris [OR] I reincarnated into the world of my favorite wuxia novel as an S ranker with unbalanced skills. [Volume 1] - Completed I was one of those people who only stood out in a crowd when their name was called. Then, I died. But instead of heaven, hell, or anything else, I found myself in the body of a young woman whom I did not recognise at first. You see, I had this novel I was obsessed with. The novel was a fairly popular wuxia that got a few sequels, and a handful of spinoffs. One of these spinoffs took place in Paris, where the main cast fought against a multi-millionaire villain. When I woke up after dying, I eventually realised that I was now the third daughter of this multi-millionaire end-game boss in a spin-off of a sequel of my favourite novel. Does this make any sense to you? Because it doesn't to me. But I guess I might as well make the most of it now. Just gotta stay away from some of the more unstable main characters and cut all ties with my 'family' to avoid certain death. [Volume 2] - Currently Airing It had not been a good idea to interfere with the characters of the original novel. Had I known it was going to cause a butterfly effect, I would have stayed in my lane and minded my business. Although, between the suspicious attacks I seem to constantly find myself in the center of, and my 'family' who is the living definition of the expression 'rich pricks', I’m not entirely sure my current predicament would have been avoidable. But maybe it isn't to be avoided; maybe I should embrace this opportunity that has been given to me and become the hero of this story? At least it's certain that I can't do worse than the original protagonist in terms of moral ambiguity; with immortality already in my pocket, and no other useful skills to account for. However, if I were to follow this path, I would have a lot to lose, including an upcoming promotion and my growing relationship with my crush. With power, glory and whatever else on one side, and my wellbeing and happiness on the other, even in this magical wuxia world, the choice is easy to make. CW: graphic descriptions of violence, swearing, implied child abuse, mention and graphic description of suicide
