Princess, I am really a good person

Chapter 8 The Stealer

One month later.
  The specific arrangements for the operation were densely posted on the wall. Zhou Mingyi's eyes moved back and forth between the pieces of paper and the red lines, while comparing the contents on the notepad to make sure there were no omissions.

Two days later, the Black Phoenix will sneak across the border of Malro and start their operation. And tonight, Alyssa will arrive in Malro, where her escort work will be transferred to Tianshu. Qiongqi troops.

It was in this handover process that someone tampered with it, creating a gap of several hours, giving them an opportunity to take advantage of it.

According to the original plan, the hotel where the princess was staying was attacked, and then she was ambushed on the way to retreat. The convoy was completely wiped out, and Alyssa was packed away. In order to confuse the pursuers behind them, they prepared five identical vehicles. Box trucks return to Mortan from different directions.

The truck that actually contains Alyssa will drive towards the White Sand Valley in the west of Mortan, where the princess will be imprisoned in a stronghold.

Before the truck reaches the Baisha River Valley, Zhou Mingyi has the only chance to stop the truck and rescue Princess Alyssa.

The person responsible for driving this truck is one of the cadres of the Black Phoenix named Glenn. He has a second-level seal. His ability is to temporarily summon a familiar for his own use, which can last for about an hour.

He is not easy to deal with. His engraved strength is higher than his own, and he has more combat experience. He is not sure what kind of shadow creature he can summon. There is no chance of winning against him in a head-on battle.

If you want to snatch the princess away from him, you can only think of some way.

However, even if he passed this level, he still had to find a way to take Alyssa out under the heavy siege of the black phoenix.

If he really rescues the princess, the Black Phoenix will definitely gather a large number of mercenaries to block all the passes in Mortan. It will definitely not be easy to leave here.

Zhou Mingyi leaned on the table behind him, took a dry cigarette of Kanerluo hay in his mouth, lit it with a match, held it between his hands and took a puff, feeling the pain in his left hand gradually subside.

Although he obtained the seal to increase his body's resistance to petrification, in the end he could only live a few more years. If he didn't leave here quickly, he might not survive the next two years.

"I can only take a gamble. It's better than dying here and rotting and smelling." He finished smoking the hay and stamped out the remaining cigarette butts.

Walk out of the room and into the large living room outside.

Sana, wearing a maid outfit, was collecting clothes on the balcony.

Seeing Zhou Mingyi come out, she smiled.

"Master, your clothes are dry. You can take a shower and change into clean clothes."

In this month, she has become much more cheerful than before. The improvement of her living environment has made her beautiful face much more rosy and plump than before, and her long blue-purple hair is more shiny than before.

Although Zhou Mingyi did not force her to do anything else besides drawing some of her blood every week, it seems that because of wearing a maid uniform, Shana took the initiative to take over the housework here, cleaning, washing clothes, and helping Zhou Mingyi. Organize those items.

After Zhou Mingyi helped her avenge her sister, and since he had never done anything to hurt her, Shana already trusted him very much. Zhou Mingyi also told her that she didn't need to call herself that, but it seemed that I was used to it before, and she still called me this name all the time.

In addition to cleaning housework every day, Zana has also been learning to master her engraving ability. Now she is able to condense ice mist and control them, and she basically has combat capabilities.

And now I can help Zhou Mingyi add ice cubes or something.

Zhou Mingyi came to the greenhouse. At this time, the temperature inside was much higher than usual. That was because the Tianlie flowers raised had matured.

Compared with the short green seedling when it was still a seedling, its rhizome has grown to more than two meters now. The thick rhizome holds a blazing big red flower, shaped like a rose, but with the roots of a chrysanthemum. Like stamens.

There is a round brown fruit in the center of the flower.

The whole flower was emitting high heat, and Zhou Mingyi had to clean up the surrounding plants to ensure that it would not be dried out by it.

Tianlie flowers can be picked at any time now, but for the sake of its freshness, Zhou Mingyi plans to pick them when he leaves later.

To use it, you have to wait until you leave Mortan and return to Tianshu.

Finally, he poured elven blood on it, and Zhou Mingyi covered it with a black visor and the basin, so that its temperature would cool down soon and it could be picked. After walking out of the greenhouse and sitting on the sofa in the living room, Zhou Mingyi took out the thief's gloves and put them on his hands.

Then he stretched out his hand towards a pen on the table beside him, stared at it for a few seconds, and then grabbed it.

But nothing happened. The pen lay motionless on the table.

"It seems that you can only take away other people's belongings."

Zhou Mingyi thought to himself.

After research, he has figured out this enchanted object. Its ability is to steal objects from other people, but it can only be held by others. It cannot take away objects placed elsewhere, even if they are put down by others. , if it doesn’t exist in other people’s body, there is no way to take it away.

The conditions for use are that targets within ten meters can be stolen after being locked for five seconds. If discovered within these five seconds, the stealing effect will be interrupted.

Then there is another obvious problem, that is, it is difficult to control what you want to steal. Zhou Mingyi tried many times in the black market, and sometimes he locked other people's wallets, but caught a bunch of keys.

Turning around, he saw Shana wiping the table, and Zhou Mingyi shouted to her.

"Zana, come here."

Shana looked over, quickly wiped her hands on her apron, walked over quickly, and came to stand next to Zhou Mingyi.

"What's the matter, Master?"

Zhou Mingyi handed her the pen on the table.

"Put it on yourself, turn around, and don't pay attention to my side."

Zana knew that he was trying out the effect of the enchanted object, so she obediently took the pen, placed it in the layer of her skirt, and then turned around.

Zhou Mingyi raised his gloved hand towards Zana and focused his consciousness on the layered pocket on her waist.

When I reached out and grabbed it, it felt more tangible in my hand.

But instead of a pen, it was a ball of silk fabric.

Shaking it open, I saw a pair of black lace underwear, still with some body temperature.
  Shana obviously felt something was wrong. She turned around and saw Zhou Mingyi holding her underwear in his hand. After being stunned for two seconds, her face turned red and she immediately held down the hem of her skirt.

"No, no. Don't you need a pen?" She said with a blushing face.

"I didn't expect that even close-fitting clothing could be stolen." Zhou Mingyi looked at the underwear in his hand and thought.

It seems that even knowing the location of the item in advance cannot improve the accuracy.

What are the conditions for precise stealing? Mental power? Or do I need to lock it for a few more seconds?
  "Um, Master, can you return it to me?"

Zana stood aside and whispered with a blushing face.

"Oh, sorry."

Zhou Mingyi then awkwardly returned the clothes in his hands to Shana.

Looking at Shana who turned her back and hurriedly put on her underwear, a strange picture suddenly appeared in Zhou Mingyi's head.

During the battle, while stealing from a burly man, I caught a pair of underwear with a bear pattern.
  "You can't use this thing indiscriminately until you fully master it." Zhou Mingyi thought to himself.
