Reincarnated As a Fox With System novel Chapter 296

Chapter 296: Wind Conquering Pearl!

The moment when Zhou Mengli activated the black ring, her furry foxtail and fox ears vanished in an instant.

Even her oppressive aura as Spirit Beast rank had disappeared.

Right now, Zhou Mengli really looked like an ordinary pretty human girl.

"As you all can see, the effect of this black ring is really wondrous. I bet none of you can see through my disguise now, right? Hehe… The starting bid for this Disguising Device is 500,000 credits! Let's start the bid!" Zhou Mengli giggled cutely and said.

"520,000 credits!"

"550,000 credits!"

"560,000 credits!"

Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, and the others stared dumbfoundedly at Zhao Mengli in amazement.

What Zhao Mengli had said was right. None of them could see through her disguise, not even Tang Li Xue's basic level [All Knowing Eyes]!

Instructor Mei Lan giggled at their reaction and slowly advised Tang Li Xue: "This disguise-type magic treasure is not bad. I suggest you just buy it. Even if your little friend cannot use it, this disguise-type magic treasure would be very useful to you later."

Tang Li Xue pondered carefully for a while. Instructor Mei Lan will only help her buy something at 1,000,000 credits, while she has about 200,000 credits in her silver card, so she could only buy something at 1,200,000 credits.

Honestly, Tang Li Xue planned to buy something with a greater effect than just a disguising device to hide the aura, foxtail, and fox ears. A device with an identical effect with her [Ethereal Form] would be the best.

Instructor Mei Lan chuckled and said: "I know you have an amazing stealth-type divine ability, but from your current reaction right now, it seems you still do not know the weakness of your own stealth-type divine ability."

"Eh? The weakness of my [Ethereal Form]?" Tang Li Xue murmured while stared at Instructor Mei Lan in confusion.

"That is right. Did you hear what that auctioneer said just now? Even the human expert at Nascent Soul Stage cannot see through that disguising device. It means that black ring have some arrays to conceal even the soul of the user." Instructor Mei Lan patiently explained while sipped the spirit tea on her cup.

"Your stealth-type divine ability does not have this kind of ability to conceal your soul. So, if you are facing the human expert at Nascent Soul Stage or any beast at Spirit Beast rank, they could detect you in an instant because they could sense all the soul in a certain radius." Instructor Mei Lan concluded her explanation.

"What?! All human experts at Nascent Soul Stage or any beast at Spirit Beast rank can detect me in my [Ethereal Form]?! But… when I used my [Ethereal Form] that time to take the egg in auction house… it seems no one detect it?" Tang Li Xue asked again in puzzlement.

Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes and replied: "Why do you think I need to stage such a stupid drama and make a big commotion before telling you to take the egg? I just have to tell you to use your stealth-type divine ability to take the egg, right?"

"Listen up, Little Xue! Never become too complacent of yourself! Nothing is perfect in this world. No matter how powerful the ability, it would certainly have some weaknesses. The best we can do is only covering the weakness of our ability with another ability to make it looks perfect. Do you understand?" Instructor Mei Lan sternly warned Tang Li Xue, but she also stared at the others one by one.

Instructor Mei Lan's advice was actually aimed at all of her students, not just Tang Li Xue.

After hearing Instructor Mei Lan's words, Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and stared expectantly at Instructor Mei Lan, then nodded to her.

While the bid of the disguising device already reached 650,000 credits, Instructor Mei Lan shouted her bid too: "1,000,000 credits!"

Tang Li Xue almost fell from her couch when she heard Instructor Mei Lan increased the bid by almost 40% at once.

"Ins… Instructor Lan… why… why do not we play it safe and increase the bid bit by bit like the others?" Tang Li Xue hesitantly asked with a bad expression.

She really felt bad to spend so many credits at once like this. Moreover, Instructor Mei Lan increased the bid so much at once.

In Tang Li Xue's opinion, they could buy it for 700,000-800,000 credits. There was no need for them to push the price until 1,000,000 credits.

Instructor Mei Lan sneered at Tang Li Xue's naiveté and said: "Do you really think you can buy this disguising device for 700,000-800,000 credits?"

Tang Li Xue frowned and asked with a curious tone: "We can't?"

Instructor Mei Lan shook her head and replied: "The price estimation of mid-grade disguise-type magic treasure should be around 900,000-1,000,000 credits. If we increase the bid little by little, then the price would definitely more than 1,000,000 credits in the end. By pushing the bid to the price limit at once, we can make the others give up in an instant."

"But what if the other bid more than 1,000,000 credits?" Tang Li Xue asked again.

"Then we will give up…" Instructor Mei Lan leisurely replied.

Tang Li Xue: "….."

Just like what Instructor Mei Lan had estimated, no one dared to increase the bid anymore, and Tang Li Xue managed to get the black ring for 1,000,000 credits.
