Chapter 107 -104 Transforming into Spiderman to Infiltrate
The game’s progression always had a pattern to follow. Da Fei took out all the Mages in the newly built Magic Watchtower, so the old watchtowers had to pull people out to fill the vacancies, leaving the old watchtowers understaffed. Thus, the disguised Deirdre naturally blended in. As for how Deirdre, after infiltrating, would relay the intelligence, this question didn’t need to be tangled with, because this was a game, not scientific research; what the NPCs said was what it was.
What did it mean once you controlled a powerful old watchtower? Of course, it meant blasting everything around, especially that row of broken ships by the shore! Once they were cleared, it was time to skedaddle. Da Fei made a decisive decision, and the sneaking operation commenced again!
So, Da Fei discussed a plan with Katrina for meeting up, and the Flying set sail for the watchtower where Deirdre was located. Upon arriving at the destination, the Flying continued to hide behind the roots of a large tree, and Da Fei again activated Stealth and Phantom March, diving into the water and swimming all the way to the shore; the first step went smoothly.
At this moment, Da Fei found himself wedged between two Hell Warships, with Demon Infants hopping around, transporting goods onto the ships, and along the shore were Horned Demon Governors standing guard every three steps. The line of guards stretched along the lakeshore as far as the eye could see!
Da Fei was instantly dumbfounded! Damn! They were using a human Great Wall to bolster security? Even with his God-level Reconnaissance Technique, he couldn’t slip through such tightly packed spaces, could he? Reconnaissance Skills weren’t the same as Invisibility Techniques! Admittedly, this method, though primitive, was very effective, and it left Da Fei in a bit of a pickle for a moment.
What to do? Cut a bloody path through? Damn, don’t joke around. Deirdre had said that any commotion would provoke the Magic Tower to launch indiscriminate attacks. Perhaps he could cause a commotion and have them indiscriminately destroy these ships as well? Could the game really be that unreliable?
Wait a minute, something was still off! During the last operation, he clearly saw a puddle in the photo, allowing him to hide from Hellhounds; but there weren’t any puddles nearby now. Even if he smuggled himself ashore, the Hellhounds would inevitably discover him!
Da Fei was dumbfounded again! Was this the rumored technique that’s ineffective against a Saint the second time? No way, was this task forcing players to confront head-on? Was the quest that much of a trap unless he could fly like a Banshee—
Fly? Da Fei looked up at the sky; the Underworld had no sky, just a ceiling.
Right, wasn’t that Spider Hero invading the barrier from the ceiling? He could try walking on the ceiling too, who knows if it might work.
Da Fei opened the C-level treasure Cliff Walker Backpack he got from the Spider Hero, and rather than a backpack, it resembled a grotesque organ, a spider’s silk sac? From the item’s description, it seemed like a climbing grappling hook; he would try it out in a safe place.
Da Fei quietly swam back and hid behind a tree root where no one could see him. Click to use! A red line similar to a crosshair shot upward from the backpack’s opening. Oh yeah, it even had target indication!
—System Prompt: Please choose a climbing entry point.
Right there, confirm!
Bang! With a dull thud, a thick white line shot out from the backpack following the red line’s target, sticking to a chunk of rock on the ceiling with a slap. Oh yeah? The backpack deflated? Sure enough, it was spider silk! It was indeed a silk sac!
—System Prompt: Adhesive point completed, using the stationary retraction feature or reverse retraction feature allows you to execute various climbing actions.
Stationary retraction? Reverse retraction? Da Fei pulled on the unstirring silk line and realized, of course, it was reverse retraction!

Immediately, the deflated backpack began to inflate like taking a breath, while Da Fei also slowly ascended to the ceiling! Wahahaha! So that’s how it worked! The so-called stationary retraction is just like a fishing rod reeling line. Compared to ordinary grappling hooks, this thing had an exceptionally long range, didn’t require any skills, no effort on one’s part, and most importantly, it didn’t require specific entry points, damn, it really was a treasure! Even though it was a C-level item and couldn’t contribute to an army, it was a Divine Artifact for players sneaking into a city! The legendary 3D Maneuvering Device! Truly worthy equipment from the Spider Hero, here he was turning into Spiderman!
Now, with most of the silk line retracted into the bag, Da Fei was hanging from the ceiling, taking in the bustling shoreline view. Through the barrier, he peeked outside, seeing Hellhounds patrolling in scattered groups! Damn, they really trapped his God-level Stealth!
But, he came from the sky! Wahahaha!
Da Fei again aimed his backpack at a protruding rock ahead on the ceiling, spraying sticky silk, and now, with two points and one line, the elevator turned into a roller coaster cable car! It was simply a cozy ride!
Now, Da Fei grew more adept at using the treasure, continuously spraying line and retracting along the ceiling, a few jumps later he was out of the barrier, crossed the lake beach, and hung quietly above the main Magic Tower as mentioned by Deirdre.
On the mini-map, the green dot representing Deirdre was right below in the tower. And on the tower’s top were hundreds of Flower Demons being held. It truly was the main tower; if successful, rescuing these hundreds of Flower Demons would make his Flower Demon Army strong enough to storm the insect nest in the Pool of Radiance.
Now, utmost caution was necessary, and as Da Fei prepared to control a Charming Emperor for reconnaissance, angry roars echoed from the tower.
—”Idiot! Useless! What exactly can you do? How did you sneak in as an apprentice?”
Da Fei’s heart skipped a beat, who was getting scolded?
The roar resounded again: “Spirit Magic? That’s not needed here! If I didn’t lack personnel now, I’d chop you up to feed the Hellhounds!”
Da Fei’s heart raced, releasing silk to let himself dangle down, and at this angle, he saw a flame-engulfed Mage furiously pointing at a black-robed masked apprentice through the watchtower’s upper window.
Damn! That apprentice was the green dot on the mini-map; it was Deirdre! And that Mage, ablaze head to toe, was standing on a brilliant red aura, damn! A hero! The main tower was guarded by a hero?
Now things got big! Was this her so-called successful infiltration into the Magic Tower?
She, a Banshee, only knew charming spells, posing as an NPC apprentice yet lacked real substance! In reality, she and apprentice weren’t the same type of NPC at all.
NPCs in the game were roughly divided into troop units, hero units, and ordinary NPCs. Troops and hero units could be recruited by players into armies, with their data following strict level settings and balance settings. Ordinary NPCs wouldn’t join player teams; they were just wandering characters on the street, with rather loose data settings, for instance, if an NPC Mage Apprentice was said to have a certain amount of health, then that’s it, and if said to know Fireball Technique, then they did.
So now Deirdre was in an extremely dangerous situation, on the verge of being exposed! What to do? If exposed, he’d have no choice but to sacrifice himself to distract the hero, covering Deirdre’s escape!
The Mage continued to berate, “Although we’re short-handed here, having an extra useless fool is worse than continuing to be short-handed! Though you’re a waste, even a sanitary pad or a pair of underwear has its use, since you know Spirit Magic, I’ll give you a simple task and if my patrol returns and you still haven’t completed it, wait to be dog food!”
—System Prompt: You have received the time-limited mission “Clear the Mischievous Resentful Spirits in the Cleft”!
—Task Hint: Deirdre must complete the task assigned by the hero Siriel before his patrol ends, or else her situation will be perilous.
Da Fei’s jaw dropped! Damn, what was this? He received a quest from the enemy?
(Note: Siriel Xyron, the frustrating hero with a Hellfire specialty and fourth-level magic in Heroic Might 3, with insufficient initial Mana to cast Hellfire. Initial skill is a Divine Skill, Academics.)
