Conquering The Game's World

Chapter 231: Sand Element!



Northeast, in the territory of the Poison Moths, there is a deep canyon.

Which, on the opposite side, connects to the periphery of Sting Bees' territory. There's also a poisonous river flowing in the middle of the canyon that connects to the various swamps of this zone.

Luis and the others plan to use this location as a battle site against the swarm of Poison Moths.

By attracting the swarm to the canyon and taking advantage of the terrain, they can use guerilla tactics to obtain maximum gains with minimal effort.

However, this strategy also risks attracting Sting Bees' Swarm and getting besieged from both sides. For this reason, they require enough preparation before the battle begins.

***

"Three of us will set up the traps! One of us will guard against monsters!"

Just as they arrived at the canyon, Luis started assigning tasks to everyone. Scanning his eyes on the three, he stopped at Sufi and spoke: "Sufi! Be on vigil! Shoot down all the monsters in sight!"

"Leave it to me!" Sufi assured in a confident tone.

Shooting monsters or something!? That's her forte!

Upon seeing her agreement, Luis nodded affirmatively, but still reminded seriously. "Try to be as conservative as possible. Don't waste too much mana on them."

"I know." Sufi nodded understandingly and left to find a better shooting location.

Not only Sufi, but Cobert and Sufi also understood Luis' concerns. This wouldn't be their only battle. After this, there will be many more fights, maybe more difficult than the upcoming one.

They may even encounter a hidden boss if they are 'lucky'. At that time, the lack of mana would be detrimental to them.

Yes, they have prepared mana potions, but saving more for the later battles is better. Especially when they can deal with this upcoming battle more efficiently.

While looking at Cobert and Bonnie, Luis said, "As for the rest, it's up to us to set up the traps."

Then he took out the gadgets for the traps he had purchased from the exchange centre. Bonnie stepped forward without waiting for him to speak and picked up the black cylindrical gadgets.

"I'll go set up the electric nets." After saying that, she left to install them at the places specified by Luis beforehand.

As the daughter of one of the famous technicians of the Grandas Kingdom, she is very familiar with the installation process of these gadgets and doesn't require Luis to assist.

She only needs to know how and where Luis wants her to set them up. The rest, she can do it on her own.

Because he knew this well, Luis was also assured of leaving it to her.

He turned to Cobert and said while pointing towards the other side of the canyon.

"Go set up these electromagnetic bombs there... You should have used them before, right?"

Cobert stared at the miniature finger-sized bombs and asked, pretending to be confused.

"Are these things used to deal with Sting Bees?"

Luis just gave a faint smile and didn't answer.

Cobert rolled his eyes and muttered listlessly. "So troublesome..."

He now understood Luis' plan well. His targets were both Poison Moths and Sting Bees at the same time.

As for why he didn't explain these things to Sufi and Bonnie, he could pretty much guess.

It was most probably to make him work hard and deal with it.

'What a hassle...'

Although he thought so, his movements were honest. He took a high leap and jumped towards the other side of the canyon.

'As expected of Twilight Owl, he landed without making a sound.'

Luis thought with amazement.

'However, did he forget that he was pretending to be weak?'

He glanced in the direction of Sufi, who was staring at Cobert in surprise.

'As expected, she noticed it too~'

Luis let out a soft chuckle as he gave a short glance in the direction of rescue staff members.

'I wonder if the professors will notice him.'

'Oh brother, you truly are a poor actor.'

Shaking his head in amusement, Luis started setting up the rest of the traps left in his hands.

As for the professors finding out Cobert's true strength. It was none of his business. Rather, he was even looking forward to it.

***

Inside the professors' lounge.

Just as Luis suspected, there were indeed some professors who noticed these details. However, most of them didn't take it too seriously.

"Interesting... Was that a skill? Or some movement technique?" Professor Darrin mumbled.

Not only him, but the rest of the professors also had similar guesses.

Professor Olivia's eyes glinted when she noticed Cobert's movements.

'Hmm, as expected! I wasn't mistaken at that time. Cobert does have strength beyond what he shows!'

"The battle here will probably take some time to start. Let's watch other students by then." One of the professors, who was bored watching them set up traps, suggested.

The one who spoke just now was Traven Lyster. He is a beast man from the leopard branch, an A-Rank powerhouse—the master of physical arts.

"Do you have someone specific you want to see, Professor Traven?" The staff member asked.

"No one, just show me a battle full of vigour!"

His words did not surprise the other professors. They all knew what kind of personality he was.

"I see," the staff member nodded. A few seconds later, the picture on the hologram screen changed, presenting an ongoing battle.

"It's the Raging Desert zone!"

"Which team is it?"

"That's Team 67. They are students from Class (1-2)."

After the staff member's words fell, everyone's attention turned towards the professor, who was the class instructor of class (1-2).

"Professor Mori, is there anyone among them worthy of attention?" The professor sitting beside Professor Mori asked.

Professor Mori rubbed his beard and showed a confident smirk. "Does a mutated element count?"

"What?! A mutated element! Who is it?" The professor's exclamation made even the people who were not interested before, interested.

Upon seeing everyone's reaction, Professor Mori showed a proud expression and replied.

"Her name is 'Sandra Grace'! The user of 'Sand' Element!"
