Should I raise you too?
Page 85
The month before last, she reflected on her life and felt that she should have a life goal and should make a great career.
So she went to the capital and secretly plotted to rob the headquarters of the Kingdom Bank and steal all the gold pounds inside!
To this end, she developed a detailed plan, gained an in-depth understanding of the underground structure of the capital, and spent half a month carrying bricks at the construction site of another bank to learn about the general structure of banks.
She ultimately concluded that the only way to do this without anyone noticing was to dig a tunnel underground, directly to the underground vault of the Kingdom Bank headquarters.
Then, using gunpowder, on a Friday night, they blew open the basement walls and took all the gold pounds they could carry.
The Kingdom Bank headquarters is closed on Saturdays and Sundays, so the employees won't discover the vault was robbed until Monday morning, giving her two and a half days to flee.
This is a perfect plan!
Last month, she quit her job at the construction site, bought a shovel and a kerosene lamp, rented a house closest to the bank and near the sewers, and began to implement her plan.
According to the plan, as a fourth-order superhuman, she could dig through the tunnel in just one week.
However, she encountered some minor problems. The soil in the capital was too hard and contained a lot of rocks. What was worse, for some reason, every time she dug for a while, "undead" would attack her.
She later learned that beneath the capital lay the ruins of an old dynasty, harboring many vengeful spirits of that dynasty.
Fortunately, she was a fourth-tier transcendent being, and neither of these two problems could stump her.
However, these two unfavorable factors greatly delayed her excavation progress. It took her a full half month to finally see the walls of the underground vault.
The day she finally broke through the tunnel was a Wednesday. She happily crawled out of the dark underground and spent all the money she had to celebrate, buying a bunch of useless trinkets to please herself.
On Friday evening, she returned to the underground and used all her knowledge to set up a ritual to weaken the sound. She also bribed a homeless man in the neighborhood to drop several metal boxes from a height.
The sound of the metal box masked the sound of the gunpowder explosion, and the wall of the underground vault was successfully breached. At that moment, she could already see the gold pounds beckoning to her!
Then she saw the undead emerging from the holes in the wall, an endless stream. She cleared out one batch, and another immediately appeared.
She activated her "spiritual vision" and saw wriggling black flying insects and a pitch-black, terrifying world of dead souls.
A gaze is a form of contact, and the power of the Soul Society attacked her following her gaze. Her eyes stung, her head spun, and her spiritual vision automatically shut down.
She was terrified: Oh no, I've been caught! The demigod of the Death Realm has come to get me!
The cautious Miss Elsie turned and ran, climbing out of the sewers moments later. Without even packing her luggage, she disappeared into the thick fog and ran straight to the outskirts.
Along the way, she avoided the undead, convinced that they must be the demigod's spies! They were looking for her!
There were so many undead on the road that by the time they reached the edge of the capital, it was already midnight.
Just when she thought she could finally escape, she was horrified to discover that she could not leave the capital. No matter how far or how long she went, she was wandering in the thick fog on the outskirts of the capital.
Despite the excruciating pain in her head, she activated her "spiritual vision" again, only to find, to her despair, that outside the capital, beyond the thick fog, there was nothing at all.
The capital city has been separated from the mortal world and is now floating in a void!
She couldn't believe it: I just wanted to steal some gold pounds, and they've mobilized such a huge force to arrest me!
This power has surpassed that of a demigod; it is the power of an angel!
She squatted on the ground, hugging her legs, looking pitiful, weak, and helpless.
She was ready to give up! But the thought of her miserable future if she were captured gave her a renewed strength.
She diligently used the "Sin" spell, maneuvering and shifting through the thick fog, constantly changing her position to conceal herself. She circled the outskirts of the capital several times without any pattern, trying to evade the angels searching for her.
Hard work pays off. At six o'clock in the morning, exhausted, she finally saw the thick fog dissipate!
The angel gave up! She won!
She immediately dashed out of the capital, running across the fields in the morning sun. She had never felt the wonder of freedom, the warmth of the sun, and the fragrance of the fields so deeply.
Although she wasted more than a month and exhausted all her savings, she successfully saved her life and her freedom!
She endured wind and rain, making her way to Ashburn, where she went straight to the underground black market, stole a piece of intelligence, and wanted to see how it praised her: "The First Person Under the Angels"? "The Great Thief of the Capital"? Or perhaps the more tabloid-like "She's a Woman Even Angels Can't Catch"?
No, what does "The old king attempts to sacrifice the capital, and Lady Elizabeth bravely saves the people" mean?
What about me? What about Elsie Campbell's name? What about the Kingdom Bank headquarters?
Thinking of this, Elsie, standing by the railing, covered her face, overwhelmed with grief and indignation.
So those undead weren't after me at all, and no angels were trying to capture me. I was just outsmarting thin air!
I abandoned all the gold pounds in the underground vault, and ran away exhausted. What was it all for?
My gold pounds!
Elsie was heartbroken.
Chapter 96 My Brain Is Trembling (Seeking Monthly Tickets!)
Although she desperately wanted to go back and retrieve the money she had left in the vault, Elsie's rationality told her that the vault must have been discovered, and going back would only lead her into a trap.
Ashburn is close to the capital, but it's not safe either.
So Elsie robbed a factory owner at random, took his wallet, and quickly bought a boat ticket to escape.
With limited gold pounds in her wallet, no one would put all their savings in their wallet, so Elsie could only buy the cheapest economy class ticket.
She sighed: Actually, I have enough money in my wallet to buy a second-class ticket, but I think I need to keep some money aside.
This ship is an ocean liner, and the voyage will take about 20 days!
Elsie was filled with deep regret.
She closed the newspaper, rolled it up, stuffed it against the railing as a pillow, and looked up at the second deck above, watching the glamorous gentlemen and ladies.
Damn, if my grand theft plan succeeds, I can live on it too! I can even buy the entire cruise ship!
"I should have succeeded if I hadn't run so fast." Elsie sighed again.
Damn it, that bastard old king pulled off some kind of resurrection ritual, creating the Soul Society and almost causing everyone in the capital to be buried with him, falling into the Soul Society. He even made me lose all my gold pounds!
The only consolation is that the old royal family has been implicated, and it is said that the newly enthroned Queen Elizabeth is discussing with Parliament how to deal with the former princes and princesses.
Ah, there's an old proverb that goes, "If the father doesn't teach, it's the son's fault." In my opinion, we should kill them all to commemorate Miss Elsie's lost gold pounds!
Regarding this matter, there are also rumors that the old king only wanted to carry out the longevity ceremony and there was no such thing as the capital falling into the Soul Society. It is said that someone set up a trap to frame the old king, and the rumors imply that the person is the new queen.
Haha, I don't believe it.
That angelic power is something I've deeply felt; how could it not exist!
It's even less likely that someone orchestrated this. In the era when the four gods were hidden, the angels were the strongest beings. If the new queen could manipulate the angels to orchestrate this, then the old king would have obediently abdicated long ago!
However, there's no smoke without fire. Perhaps the arrival of the Soul Society wasn't the old king's fault. He might have been framed, but not by the new queen.
Elsie had been brainstorming for a while, and then she got a little hungry.
The restaurant is inside the cabin, and the food is alright, but Elsie can't go there. Once she leaves, she'll never be able to get a spot on the deck again!
As the sun was about to set, the economy class deck fell into darkness, while the second deck of first class was brightly lit. Elsie saw two ladies admiring the night view from the railing, and a waitress approached them, serving them red wine and snacks.
The aroma of cookies wafted on the wind, and Elsie swallowed hard.
Damn rich people!
Oh well, let's go eat. Hehe, there's no room on the economy class deck, so I'll sneak into the second class deck.
The first-class deck is not good for diving; the clothing there is too high-end.
She pulled out the newspaper from behind her head, straightened up, and was about to take a step when she suddenly saw a semi-transparent object floating in the night sky.
Enemy attack?
Elsie tensed up and quickly used the "Sin" spell to examine herself. She wanted to move the attacker's "malice" onto the sea so that the attacker would attack the ocean.
But no matter how she checked, she couldn't find any "malice" from the attacker.
How could the attack have been carried out without any malicious intent? Was he a psychologically gifted individual?
Elsie used the "Sin" spell again. The third woman next to her had many sins, and she turned that woman into a "substitute".
However, the translucent object still fell straight down on her.
There was no other way. Elsie was prepared to expose herself and was ready to make her move as soon as the thing got close.
However, the translucent object slowly stopped and hovered in front of her.
what's the situation?
Elsie looked around; no one else had noticed the object.
Is it a psychological technique? Or a spiritual technique?
Hehe, if it's those two areas, then you've chosen the wrong opponent. My "Sinful" techniques have achievements in both the psychological and spiritual realms!
Elsie quickly used the corresponding spell, but the translucent glass block remained motionless and unresponsive.
It didn't work!
Could it be an opponent of a much higher rank than me?
The glass shard is just floating; does that mean the other party is not hostile?
Elsie remained alert, glancing at the glass pane where words flashed across it.
