“Look, look.”

Elise Clark seemed unusually attentive, her eyes sharp.

She had immediately noticed something odd about Andriya Norman’s actions and exclaimed excitedly, “Did you see that?”

It’s normal for a girl to adjust her hair and worry about losing her earrings, it’s normal to give them a check.

But who spends time specifically playing with the gemstones on their earrings? Are they trying to show off?

Or perhaps trying to entice someone?

The situation and setting Andriya Norman found herself in were not appropriate for such actions at all.

Of course, Link also noticed the anomaly.

But he didn’t hastily draw any conclusions, just deciding to make some preparations in advance.

Just in case Andriya Norman had indeed signaled to someone, they wouldn’t be caught off guard when the time came for conflict.

This small hollow in the hills was not only his chosen hiding spot, but also the location for the ambush.

He took down the large bag from his back, from which he took out a half-portion of items resembling landmines from his past world, a Timed Auto-Destruction Bomb.

The two were similar in function but differed in many ways.

For example, the explosions of landmines were a result of explosives whereas the Auto-Destruction Bomb relied on alchemical products;

Furthermore, landmines were triggered by a fuse or pressure, while the Auto-Destruction Bomb required activation by spiritual and magic power.

Compared to the standard Auto-Destruction Bomb, the Timed version had two distinct features: its stealth was greatly enhanced making it difficult to detect; and it could be activated in advance, with a delay before detonation, making it’ suitable for ambushes.

After some consideration, Link took out a great weapon to add to the ambush plan.

He only had three of such weapons, acquired in two purchases.

Given Elise Clark’s uncertain stance before, he had no choice but to use one of the great weapons to quickly “eliminate” the Pure Blood trio in order to handle any potential backstabbing.

Now, given the opportunity to possibly lure out others associated with “Pure Blood Will” through Andriya Norman, it wouldn’t hurt to use another one.

Though it was a bit painful.

But weapons were meant for killing enemies, after all.

All the Rune Objects seized from the “Pure Blood Trio” were also taken out.

The attack Rune items were kept as backup, while the non-offensive ones were used as bait.

“Do you want to stay here, or help me setting the trap?”

Link looked at Elise Clark, who was eager to get started, and asked.

“Together! Together!”

Elise Clark had been waiting for this moment, excitedly agreed, and immediately pulled several bundles of Enhanced Versions of Delayed Blast Tablefire laced with extras from her bag. “These are for you, let’s bury them together. I love watching explosions, big explosions! You didn’t prepare enough of them, it’s not going to be thrilling enough!”

Link didn’t refuse.

The two walked out of the cave and started preparing the trap.

A hollow in the hills was just a flat ground between the hills.

The most suitable place to set up the kind of trap Link had in mind was the flattest part in the center of the flat ground.

Elise Clark was more enthusiastic and proactive than Link, and her movements were skillful, proving her to be an expert.

She used the secondary Mudstone technique smoothly, neatly “cutting off” large chunks of soil where her gaze fell;

Then, using a little trick of applying spiritual power and magic power, she would “suspend” the “cut” soil blocks;

The Enhanced Version of Delayed Blast Tablefire was thrown casually, scattering into the soil pit with just the right spacing, maximizing its power.

Seeing this, Link glanced at the little shovel in his hand, suddenly feeling it was of little use.

“Can I help you?”

Elise Clark tilted her head, asked with an expectant look.

“Thank you.”

Link didn’t hesitate, he stored the shovel, handed over all the Delayed Auto-Destruction Bombs and Attack Rune Items to her.

“You’re too kind!”

Ehse Clark snatched the Delayed Auto-Destruction pump swiftly, not even glancing at those broken Rune Items.

The scene was reproduced.

In a blink of an eye, two mine pits were well prepared.

Link didn’t pay much heed, he proceeded to scatters those Attack Rune Items himself in the bushes and shrubs.

As for those Rune Items meant to be used as bait, they had their uses.

After setting the trap, Link and Elise Clark returned to the cave to continue monitoring Dalton Collen and his crew.

Alas, an unexpected change occurred.

The “sun” that was hanging in the middle of the sky a second ago, showering

light and heat, was suddenly replaced by the “Silver Moon”.

The golden, fiery “sunlight” turned into pure, bright “moonlight”.

Link couldn’t help but recall the operating instructions of the wristwatch which specifically indicated the daily limit of once, twice, or three times. ’

It turns out that the days and nights in this world also change, there is a transition between day and night.

The only difference being that the transition between day and night was exceptionally abrupt.

Nothing much besides that.

Link quickly accepted this change.

“Ah! It’s dark!”

Contrary to Link, Elise Clark was startled, loudly exclaiming.

“Is there a problem?”

Link immediately asked out of concern.

While Elise Clark’s moral character was unpredictable and impulsive, coming from a large family, she was well-informed and knowledgeable.

Seeing her strong reaction, Link knew that there must be some implications behind this abrupt day-night change which he wasn’t aware of.

Those implications that the Storm Sea New Blood would find tough to learn about through books, data, and documents.

“Good news!”

Ehse Clark’s eyes shone brightly, her expression excited, and fists clenched tightly, waving in front of her chest. She was filled with anticipation, “Great news! This signifies that the current stage of this Small World is very special, whether it’s for rescue or destruction, different results can be achieved. Huge results!”
