162: Chapter 0162: Conditions

When he heard that the Feiting Lurkers organization admitted the mission was extremely difficult but critically important and must be completed somehow,

Rice and Felina could directly state any difficulties they had, and the organization would provide them with the maximum possible support based on the situation and needs.

Hearing the Feiting Federation offered maximum support, Li Size raised an eyebrow, feeling that although the mission's difficulty was immense, there might be aspects worth exploiting.

As Li Size fell into deep thought, the Laboratory suddenly became silent...

Li Size's fingers tapped the desktop, making a 'thud-thud' sound—his brow slightly raised, a hint of cunning flashing in his eyes:

"This mission was originally a pipe dream, but I thought of Flora's Lesser Invisibility Spell—

That is a Dark-element Zero-Ring Sorcery. This marvelous sorcery guides Shadow Energy to envelop the body, forming a 'Phantom Layer.'

It reduces the light refraction rate by 80% and suppresses Demonic Energy fluctuations to below the 0.05 energy level, just skirting the threshold of ordinary Demonic Energy detectors.

Perhaps we need this sorcery."

But he immediately frowned. According to Flora herself, she could achieve an almost transparent effect at night only because of the massive boost from her Bloodline talent.

A normal Lesser Invisibility Spell, even at night, could still be detected by the naked eye or Sorcery Recording.

It was still lacking if it were to be effective in an infiltration mission of this caliber.

However, swiftly, his brow relaxed, and he continued speaking:

"If I can successfully modify this sorcery and enhance its effect, theoretically, it can achieve or even surpass the effect of the Lesser Invisibility Spell cast by Flora.

Perhaps with the help of this sorcery, we can infiltrate those town-level communication node centers without a trace!"

Felina heard her husband's analysis and also felt that the mission, which seemed as difficult as climbing to heaven, was not entirely impossible.

She nodded gently, looking at Li Size with adoration, waiting for him to continue speaking.

Li Size's fingertips traced the rune patterns on the desktop, seemingly recalling something amusing as he smiled slightly:

"There's also Advanced knowledge in cryptography and the Zero-Ring Sorcery Lock-Picking Art—this time isn't like the previous Device Theft Plan where someone left us a backdoor.

Under normal circumstances, the rooms in the communication node centers are definitely locked with encryption.

So, we will definitely need the Lock-Picking Art and Advanced knowledge involving sorcery cryptography.

Otherwise, even if the facility room of the communication node center is right in front of us, we won't be able to get in!"

Li Size paused and winked mysteriously at Felina:

"Besides, in the future, we need to have Lailisi set up our own encrypted communication network, and Advanced cryptography knowledge is indispensable.

I don't want our communication network to be monitored!"

Felina covered her mouth and chuckled upon hearing this, then asked:

"Husband, is there anything else needed? Why do I feel like after your analysis, the difficulty of this mission doesn't seem that high anymore?"

Li Size held Felina and kissed her on her small mouth. Beside them, Violet, seeing this, suddenly blushed, thinking of something.

After a while, Li Size spoke with lingering satisfaction:

"Hmm. Communication center nodes are multi-story structures with anti-intrusion sorcery facilities on the walls.

Sometimes it's inconvenient to enter through the main gate or by climbing the wall, or we might need to escape from high altitude when leaving.

This requires the combined action of Levitation Spell and Light Body Technique to prevent us from taking damage from falling from a height."

After thinking carefully for a moment, Li Size couldn't think of anything else that was needed.

The Feiting Federation wasn't a fool; they wouldn't let them wildly request support under the guise of a mission. Every piece of support they requested needed a reasonable explanation.

Li Size thought for a moment and said to Felina:

"Tell Rice that you can't handle it alone, and you will arrange for ten absolutely reliable people to complete the mission together.

However, for the knowledge and sorcery model scrolls mentioned above, I want ten copies of each. I have a ninety percent chance of completing this mission!"

Felina's eyes widened in surprise, her light purple pupils contracting:

"You want ten copies of each scroll? That's asking for the moon!

Besides, there are only seven of us: you, me, Gelia, Flora... plus you?"

She leaned forward, her golden curly hair sweeping across the desk, and her expression became increasingly strange towards the end as she looked suspiciously at Li Size:

"You little rascal, don't tell me you've got a new woman outside again! Wuwu..."

Li Size quickly explained:

"Isn't this taking advantage of the opportunity? If we ask for a few extra copies, what if we need them later?

Then, if everyone encounters a sorcery or knowledge that needs trading in the future, we won't be stuck without anything to exchange!"

Felina finally let it go. Seeing this, Violet suddenly interjected in a low voice, her cheeks flushed, her pointed ears hidden in her golden hair:

"Brother-in-law, you must not bully my sister!

Oh right, is the Lesser Invisibility Spell the kind that makes one invisible, the one Sister Flora also knows? It's so magical?

I want to try that sorcery too!"

Her fingertips fiddled with the corner of the notebook, her eyes filled with curiosity and admiration.

Li Size slowly raised his hand and gently patted her head.

The corner of his mouth curved into a faint smile at that moment, a smile that seemed to carry a hint of mystery and certainty.

He slowly began to speak:

"The principles behind them are actually interconnected.

But Flora's sorcery is extraordinary; it has been enhanced by her Bloodline, which makes its concealment stronger. In certain scenarios, even a Formal Wizard cannot detect her."

As he spoke, he turned to face Felina, his fingertips lightly swiping across the flying message screen, the movement fluid and carrying an unquestionable confidence:

"Go ask Rice to send over some extra listening devices.

After all, the justification for installing them is that damage is inevitable during the mission process; anything can happen."

A flicker of imperceptible calculation crossed his eyes in that instant, as if he were plotting something major.

"Although the technology involved in these listening devices is too Advanced, with our current capabilities, there is no way for us to crack them, let alone replicate them.

But, keeping a few such devices is always a thought for the future.

When our knowledge and abilities are sufficient, we must acquire this technology; it is an imperative matter."

His tone was firm, as if he could already see the day of future success.

Felina couldn't help but sigh deeply upon hearing this. She reached out and rubbed her temples, as if trying to relieve the pressure in her mind.

She said helplessly:

"Fine, I'll try to communicate with Rice."

Her eyes were filled with helplessness, yet there was also a trust in Li Size's judgment.

This trust was like a beam of light in the darkness, illuminating the path ahead for them.
