Ms. Sarah, you don’t want to…

After all, he was coming to 'chat' with someone, so Qin Feng didn't use Stealth.

When he descended into the grove like an angel of Death, the female player dressed as a student, 'Sarah', was instantly startled.

She had been waiting in this place for a long time and had never seen 'Shadow' appear…

In fact, she was almost ready to give up, thinking of finding another way, such as diplomatic means, to try and contact 'Shadow'. But she never expected that the person she longed for day and night would suddenly appear before her just like that!

And…

"He seems… even more handsome!"

Sarah looked at the frost-like power swirling around Qin Feng's body, feeling a sense of trepidation.

It was as if she wasn't facing a player, but a powerful existence far beyond her imagination!

Of course, that seemed to be the case in reality too…

Qin Feng's strength was something she could no longer fathom…

"You wanted to see me?"

Qin Feng's eyes behind the mask swept over her expressionlessly. "Last time I saw you, you were a female pirate. You've changed your style quite quickly."

Hearing Qin Feng's words, Sarah finally snapped out of it, as if waking from a dream!

Shadow was here!

Shadow had really come to find her!

This made her unable to suppress her excitement. Her heart raced, and she lowered her head slightly, a bit shy. "I heard that Mr. Shadow prefers little lolis, so I wanted to try cosplaying as one… Mr. Shadow, do you like this look?"

"…"

Qin Feng glanced at her chest.

Thinking to himself, this had absolutely nothing to do with a little loli, right?

With assets like hers, what part was 'little'?

Of course, that wasn't the point…

Qin Feng couldn't be bothered to talk more with her and got straight to the point. "Cut the nonsense. I know you want your Talent back. While that's not impossible, you have to tell me, what can you do for me?"

Hearing this, Sarah seemed somewhat disappointed.

She thought to herself, it seemed Mr. Shadow didn't like the student girl look?

So she raised her head, her watery eyes looking at Qin Feng, and tentatively said, "If Mr. Shadow doesn't like this type, I can also be a doctor? I can help you solve a certain problem of localized hardening."

???

Upon hearing this, Qin Feng fell completely silent.

This woman…

Was truly a f*cking genius.

At first glance, the words sounded fine, but upon careful thought, there was a big problem…

"Forget it."

Qin Feng thought for a moment. It seemed this woman didn't know that the Double-headed Phoenix Lutil was arranged by Qin Feng.

He simply said straightforwardly, "Here's the deal. If you want your Talent back, you cooperate with the Double-headed Phoenix that has come to your Coconut Country. Secretly lure her to the various City Ruins in Coconut Country until she can level up to a Mythic BOSS. Are you willing to do this?"

"Huh?"

Upon hearing this request, Sarah was immediately dumbfounded.

She truly hadn't expected that the Double-headed Phoenix seemed to have been sent by Shadow?

Shocked by this, she immediately felt somewhat conflicted. "Mr. Shadow, although I am very willing to help you, Coconut Country is my homeland…"

Qin Feng raised an eyebrow and asked, "What, you want more money?"

Sarah was almost in tears. "No, Mr. Shadow. If I do this, I'll become a traitor. I'll be letting down hundreds of millions of Coconut Country citizens…"

Qin Feng retorted, "Does Coconut Country still have hundreds of millions of people now?"

Sarah was a bit embarrassed. "There probably aren't that many alive at the moment, but that's not the point, is it…"

Qin Feng paused. "So you mean, you refuse?"

Sarah hurriedly said, "That's not it. I'm mainly considering the feasibility… You see, I've lost my Talent. My combat power has plummeted. Even if I wanted to lure the Double-headed Phoenix, crossing the City Ruins would be very difficult."

Qin Feng said, "If you encounter other monsters, the Phoenix will help you deal with them. Also, I'll prepare a ring for you. With this ring, you can maintain a prolonged Stealth state and have a Stealth Level of 15. Ordinary players won't be able to see you, but the Phoenix will be able to see you and target you to break through area movement restrictions."

"Of course, the attributes of this ring are also good and can compensate for the damage output you lost due to your missing Talent."

Upon hearing this, Sarah immediately felt a bit nervous.

A ring!

A ring given by Shadow, could it be an ordinary ring?

But the key point was still…

Sarah's heart was still very conflicted!

Luring a BOSS to harm her own country's compatriots was something she truly found hard to do. Even though Qin Feng said he would give her a ring, she was still extremely uneasy.

She might usually project a strong aura, acting fearless, but she still held a certain degree of loyalty towards her own country.

It seemed he could see her inner conflict.

Qin Feng said indifferently, "The reason I'm entrusting this to you is that I don't want to waste my own time. If you refuse, or don't perform well, then I'll have no choice but to take matters into my own hands and nurture Lutil to Mythic level myself…"

"If I personally intervene, then your Coconut Country's citizens won't just lose a bit of lifespan."

"Ms. Sarah, you don't want me to personally intervene and cause heavy casualties for your Coconut Country, do you?"

If Osirio were present, he would definitely sneer.

The same old tactics again!

The last time Qin Feng used such tactics was against Sakura Country's Matsushita Xingyue…

However, the reason such words become classics is precisely because they are indeed effective!

As soon as Qin Feng said this, Sarah's attitude immediately shifted. The hesitation and indecision she felt vanished in an instant, replaced by determination.

"I… I understand."

Sarah nodded, then cautiously asked, "Can I take a look at the attributes of that ring first?"

For the past ten days or so, due to her missing Talent, she hadn't participated in any battles, which had led to quite a bit of speculation within her guild.

If her strength couldn't return to the level it was with her Talent, it was hard to say how long she could continue managing this guild. After all, her guild consisted of the top-tier experts in Coconut Country, many of whom had the potential to be ambitious leaders…

Previously, they were kept in check by Sarah's overwhelming strength.

If her strength weakened, relying solely on her charm and female identity, she probably wouldn't end up well.

Qin Feng: "I don't have it on me, and your level isn't high enough… I need to downgrade the equipment's level. Go home and wait."

Upon hearing the word 'home', Sarah immediately showed an 'I understand' expression. "Okay! This is my address… Mr. Shadow, rest assured, my skills shouldn't disappoint you!"

Realizing the misunderstanding, Qin Feng immediately corrected himself. "Then don't wait at home. Wait at the transnational teleportation array instead."

Sarah's eyes widened in surprise. "Huh? Sir, you want to do it at the teleportation array… there are people all around that place!"

???

What on earth was this woman thinking about?

Was there nothing in her head besides localized hardening?
