……

After crossing the knee-high grass path, Lu Ye arrived at the White Snake Shrine.

Legend has it that many small local deities originally existed in Ashina.

But after the arrival of the Sakura Dragon, all these gods were devoured, except for one great land god who remained.

——White Snake God.

It possesses a massive body capable of traversing canyons, reaching lengths of up to 100 meters, making it extremely dangerous.

The local people of Weiming believe that this is just a god that exists in legend.

But Lu Ye knew that it was real.

It is obviously unrealistic for one person to deal with the Imperial Army, and relying on technology is too difficult.

At this time, Japan already had firearms imported from abroad, which were the earliest type of firearms. However, the method of making gunpowder was firmly controlled by the Imperial Household Department and was not passed on to outsiders.

Although Lu Ye knew how to mix gunpowder, how could Ashina acquire a large number of guns in a short period of time?

Lu Ye didn't have much time left, so he had to find another way.

That method is to use someone else to do the dirty work.

The Lion Ape and the White Serpent God.

The former spends most of its time living at the water source in Bodhisattva Valley, guarding the key ingredient for creating the Source Fragrance—the "Fragrant Water Lily." The latter, on the other hand, lives in a cave near the poisonous swamp in front of Bodhisattva Valley; the two are not very far apart.

Lu Ye's original plan was to lure the Guardian Ape to the battlefield.

However, judging from the items that have been refreshed in the store, Lu Ye has a bolder idea that could end the war completely.

……

Below the White Serpent Shrine lies the shrine valley, an extremely dangerous place with an abyss that stretches to the horizon and is shrouded in a layer of white mist.

With the help of the hook rope, Lu Ye's speed was greatly improved.

Its tip can be firmly embedded in rock crevices or cliff edges. Although it took some getting used to at first, Lu Ye was able to use it quite skillfully after only about half an hour.

After purchasing the first four items with the points I had, I had 200 points left.

Lu Ye used the 200 points to buy 48 rounds of general-purpose bullets.

Including what was left before, there are a total of 56 rounds left, plus three .44 caliber bullets.

On the cliff below the White Snake Shrine, Lu Ye discovered a demon Buddha.

It is a stone statue with a ferocious face, six arms in different poses, and small blue flames floating on them.

Lu Ye sat down cross-legged in front of it, and the flames on the Ghost Buddha's arms slowly gathered at the position where its hands were clasped together in front of its chest, which meant that the worship was successful.

After that, Lu Ye could rest at the Sculptor's Idols, recovering his strength in just a few seconds. He could also teleport between the various Sculptor's Idols, which undoubtedly saved him a lot of time.

After walking for a while, Lu Ye stopped and leaned against the wall.

Just ahead of the valley below the shrine is a place called the Valley of Falling.

This place is not uninhabited; it is guarded by a group of "snake-eyed" women with white bandages wrapped around their bodies.

The women are descendants of the ancient Yujiami clan.

They carried muskets or cannons and had excellent eyesight, making it easy for them to spot enemies in the distance. Lu Ye had hurriedly hidden himself because he had seen the back of a "snake-eyed" person.

Legend has it that the Divine Dragon descended upon Ashina, spreading the power of immortality. A race called the Okami heard of this and went to the Fountainhead Palace seeking immortality. After that, some changes occurred within the Fountainhead Palace. The Okami female warriors descended the mountain and engaged in a fierce battle with Ashina. Initially, they had the upper hand, but later the Ashina people discovered their weakness to poison, and they were eventually driven back to the Fountainhead Palace.

This battle is known as the War of the Ancients, and the exact time it took is unknown.

However, there is a mural inside the castle tower's dojo depicting a warrior fighting against a strange being wielding lightning, with the inscription "A demon once came to Ashina."

During that protracted battle, the Okami tribe left behind their bloodline in Ashina, which became known as the "Snake Eyes" clan.

They dwell in the Valley of Fallen Angels, guarding the path to the land of immortals, and will never allow outsiders to set foot here.

Because of his excellent eyesight, Lu Ye could only use the blind spots in their field of vision.

Before the snake-eyed man could turn in their direction, Lu Ye used the grappling hook to fly to the opposite cliff face, then fell from the height, slamming the hilt of his sword into the enemy's head, stunning him.

The reason he didn't kill it was because he couldn't let the snake-eyed decoration get stained with blood.

Ahead of the Fallen Valley lies the Iron Cannon Fortress, where dozens of Snake Eyes are stationed. The only path to the other side is a suspension bridge, and the nearby mountain walls are too far apart to be traversed by grappling hooks.

This means that the only road is being targeted simultaneously by dozens of elite snipers, and there's absolutely no cover on that road...

So Lu Ye thought of using disguise.

While the [Interference Machine] can be used for even more perfect camouflage, it is an important tool in Lu Ye's plan to save Ashina, and it can only be used once, so it will not be used here.

Once you successfully cross the suspension bridge, those snake eyes will no longer be a threat.

An ADC is good at kiting from a distance in close combat, but once a fighter gets close...

They took Snake Eyes to a secluded spot and removed her decorations. Underneath the bandages, only her female form could be identified. This was because Snake Eyes had been consuming high-purity Source Water for a long time, which had caused some mutations in her.

If I had to give a judgment...

Lu Ye's assessment was—it was unbearable to look at.

Is it really worth it to make yourself look like this in pursuit of immortality? If you don't care about your appearance, why wrap yourself in bandages?

Although Lu Ye really wanted to ask her that, it would be pointless.

After getting dressed, Lu Ye managed to put the wedge and grappling hook into his storage space, even though it had already been upgraded once; otherwise, it wouldn't have been able to fit them at all.

Lu Ye then picked up the musket and kicked her off the cliff.

After all, it would be difficult to handle if he woke up later.

The journey went very smoothly, and the snake-eyed people they encountered along the way did not suspect Lu Ye's identity.

In front of the Fallen Valley is the suspension bridge, and on the other side of the bridge is a fortress made up of jagged, massive stone walls. On those natural platforms stand several snake-eyed figures.

Lu Ye took a deep breath and stepped forward.

The first step was that no one fired a shot.

The second step is the same.

Step 3...

Step 4...

Lu Ye counted his steps while keeping a watchful eye on his surroundings and observing his environment.

Just as he reached the middle of the bridge, a figure covered in bandages and wearing a straw raincoat appeared to his left.

She carefully observed Lu Ye, then raised the cannon barrel in her hand.

—Danger!

Chapter 137 Successful Infiltration

In that instant, Lu Ye took a step forward and sprinted, narrowly escaping disaster.

But the shell destroyed the bridge behind them.

The bridge broke in the middle, and the broken part flew rapidly toward the cliff face.

Just before they were about to collide, Lu Ye swung out the grappling hook.

Its sharp tip hooked onto a tree growing below the cliff, and its body swung clockwise in the air before landing on a nearby platform.

However, above the fortress, the figure in the straw raincoat was moving at high speed. She carried a cannon and ran and jumped between the canyons where she would fall into the abyss if she was not careful. Without hesitation, she moved to a place where she could observe Lu Ye and then raised the cannon again.

Upon seeing this, Lu Ye immediately jumped off the cliff and swung to the other side using a grappling hook.

If I remember correctly, that figure... should be the elite monster here, Snake-Eyed White Vine.

Lu Ye realized that he had overlooked one thing.

Even if the body is covered by clothing, what about the eyes?

The "Snake Eyes" living here have exceptional eyesight and their bodies have undergone a mutation. The reason why the Snake Eyes were able to spot Lu Ye was because they observed that his eyes were different from their own.

—Anyone who trespasses on this land will be killed without mercy.

This is the motto of the "Snake Eyes".

Lu Ye used the grappling hook to swing and dodge the white vine's attacks. At the same time, the other snake-eyed creatures noticed the anomaly and raised their muskets to fire.

At that moment, Lu Ye realized that things were starting to get complicated.

But he glanced at the location of the white vines and lowered himself again; below the canyon was a perpetual fog.

"Abandoning the solid mountain wall that could provide cover, and instead using it to hide yourselves?" Bai Teng scoffed. "Foolish, you underestimate our eyesight."

Several lead bullets came at Lu Ye simultaneously from all directions, with extreme precision!
