Chapter 531 Lilly Is No Longer Alone

Josh silently expressed, “Uncle Hux, your words are not helpful. Instead, they’re jeopardizing someone’s safety.”

They made a concerted effort to kill their enemies, hoping to leave Lilly vulnerable and without any support.

Thankfully, he volunteered to sacrifice someone.

Edward playfully touched his nose, indicating his eagerness.

Blake spoke, “The most effective defense is to take the initiative and attack.”

He casually picked up a notebook and pen from the table, “King Libra is here, but he’s only coming for a visit.”

“Just now, he concealed himself within Mabel’s bracelet, waiting for an opportunity. He couldn’t find Lilly, so our advantage is…”

Blake jotted down the words “Palace of the Ruler of Hell” in his notebook.

After a brief pause, he wrote Lilly’s name once more.

“Lilly possesses a certain level of combat ability, but ultimately, she’s not strong enough.”

She could eliminate the ghost in the bracelet with a single arrow, but she could not defeat her opponent with a single strike.

According to what Pablo said, when she became stronger as the Ruler of Hell, she could send her opponent’s soul flying with just a push. However, right now, she merely managed to create a hole in his head.

No matter how exceptional a weapon might be, its effectiveness depended on the strength of the person wielding it.

Blake drew a few plus signs next to Lilly’s name, stating that her strength needs improvement.

He continued writing, “The other party is King Libra, and considering Lilly’s descriptions of him being cunning and having a fear of death, the one she defeated today wasn’t his true self.”

Lilly raised her hand and exclaimed, “I know the answer! They’re a clone!”

Although she spoke confusingly, everyone understood what she meant.

Hannah was puzzled.

How could there be something more difficult than homework?

She stared blankly at the contents of the notebook, her mind empty.

Zachary handed her a notebook, saying, “I can help Lilly.”

Blake opened the notebook, only to find Lilly’s stats written in it…

Name: Lilly.

“Her current attack is 800 while her full potential is 10,000+, other skills undeveloped and unquantifiable.”

“She was a practitioner and is now the Ruler of Hell.”

“Her vitality is 500 while her full potential is 1,000, and will decrease after capturing ghosts.”

“Her speed is at 80 and her full potential would be 1,000. She has short legs, so she should be able to maneuver herself swiftly.”

“The weapons she possesses are a purple sledgehammer, a containment spirit net, a spirit compass, the Palace of the Ruler of Hell, a bow and arrow, and five evil spirits.”

“Her accuracy is at 100 percent and her companions are Pablo and Blake.”

“Her regeneration is at 900 points. While based on existing data analysis, she should reach her full potential of 1,000 points.”

…

It was evident that some of the data had been recently added. No wonder he seemed momentarily absent during their conversation—he was memorizing these details.

However…

Blake pointed to the section labeled “Mythical Creatures” and asked, “What do the mythical creatures refer to?”

Zachary earnestly explained, “In the game, characters can have pets that typically assist them in enhancing their combat abilities… And these pets can be referred to as mythical creatures.”

After all, he had written about mythical creatures, not pets…

Blake’s mouth twitched, and he tapped Zachary on the head with the notebook.

“Good, very good!”

Lilly sat carefreely on the sofa, her legs swinging back and forth.

Observing her father writing and drawing, the uncles and brothers gathered around, brainstorming ideas for her.

Suddenly, she did not feel alone anymore!

In the past, dealing with ghosts and such was solely her responsibility.

Now they were all working together.

How nice…

Lilly hopped off the sofa, squeezed into Blake’s arms, and leaned on the table with her chubby face propped up, eagerly watching everyone as they discussed.

“So, we have two objectives. One is to enhance Lilly’s strength, and the other is to locate King Libra’s hiding place.”

Lilly vigorously nodded her head, saying, “Yeah!”

Blake rested his chin on her fluffy little head and stated, “Building a strong physique = is crucial for improving combat. From now on, Lilly will train with me.”

Lilly continued nodding like a bobblehead, saying, “Yeah, yeah!”

Blake contemplated, “Proficiency in ghost hunting is also essential. We need to bring Lilly to more dangerous areas and encounter more ghosts to enhance her reaction skills and combat abilities.”

Lilly nodded in agreement, saying, “Uhuh!”

Blake paused, momentarily distracted by the adorable sight of the little one earnestly nodding her head.

“Do you understand what we’re saying, or are you just nodding along?”

He gently stroked Lilly’s hair.

It meant that she would have to train very hard in the future and be exhausted from that.

Lilly declared, “I know! Daddy, don’t underestimate me! I’m no longer a four-year-old Lilly! I’m five years old now!”

Josh exclaimed, “Incredible!”

Anthony advised, “Keep an eye on that Yena!”

Blake agreed, “It’s time to be vigilant.”

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Hannah was puzzled.

Wait, don’t you want to fill me in on what you’re discussing?

“Why should we pay attention to that annoying child?” he complained.

Lilly shook her head and replied, “Hannah, you’re so dumb. King Libra will come looking for her.”

Hannah asked, “What do you mean? Why are you so sure… Who’s looking for who now?”

Blake picked up Lilly and said, “Come on, let’s go!”

Anthony checked his watch, saying, “I’ll head to the office first. We’ll visit Saffron Island next week.”

They still had to celebrate Lilly’s birthday no matter how late they came back.

Blake nodded in agreement.

Edward stared at a book, thinking about whether soaking a steel bar in a dog’s blood would help in the battle.

Gilbert was deep in thought.

She needs to be in a place where there are a lot of dead people… How about the hospital’s mortuary?

Perhaps I can borrow it…

Bryson remained silent and pondered.

Can we find satellites if we found King Libra?

Jonas sat on the sofa lost in thought, while Liam remained silent as well.

Everyone was lost in their thoughts.

Pablo who was floating nearby felt speechless.

Now that you’ve done my job for me, why am I here?

At that moment, Bettany called out, “It’s time to eat!”

Anthony grabbed his briefcase and rushed out, saying, “There’s something urgent happening at the company!”

Liam spoke, “Crucial data are missing in the blueprints. I need to fill them up.”

Bryson remarked, “I need to confirm the flight for today. I’ll head upstairs first.”

Jonas added, “Well, the production team is only progressing because of me. I’m in a hurry.”

Edward answered a call, “Hello… what? The pillar collapsed after the cement was poured. I’ll be there immediately!”

Gilbert and Blake remained silent.

Drake, Josh, and Zachary were equally confused.

Bettany interrupted, “Everyone, stop!”

Everyone immediately halted their activities.

Ever since Lilly went missing and was found again, the old lady had become quite demanding these past two days. She needed to catch up on cooking all the meals she missed in the past three months…

…

Meanwhile, upon returning home, Yena and Mabel hurriedly attended to Mabel’s bracelet.

Yena sat alone in her room, unable to calm down.

She glanced around and thought about the Crawford Mansion, and then glanced at her shabby room.

She and Lilly were cousins, so why was there such a big difference between them?

Suddenly, a voice echoed, asking, “Do you know what’s the difference between you and Lilly?”

Yena was startled and exclaimed, “Who’s there?”

She could not see anyone around, but when she looked up, she saw her reflection in the mirror. Her pupils contracted in fear!

The figure in the mirror smiled at her sinisterly, and behind her stood a woman wearing a red veil…
