Chapter 1578: Assembly Line Operation
As more and more Yuzu-rank one-eyes entered the shop, Jiangnan became completely swamped!
For every one-eyed customer that entered, Jiangnan's stock of Yuzu eyes increased by +1!
Massage and coax for information, then cupping and removal, all in one seamless process!
Outside the shop, the one-eyed monsters lined up, waiting to have their eyes taken!
The scene was absolutely bustling!
Miyazaki, Wuzang, Freya, and Liuhua were all sent by Jiangnan to infiltrate the guard army, using their one-eyed identities!
Before leaving, they each ate plenty of Little Pudding and Dog Biscuits!
This allowed them to maintain their one-eyed transformation form!
Their main role was to act as eye shills, advertising the Radiant Eye-Grabbing Wonder Room!
They could also cooperate with Little Walnut's future defection operations within the guard army!
All of them were like ink Jiangnan had spilled into the basin.
And Little Walnut moved quickly; in no time, he had gathered a bunch of misfits and brought them through the back door into the partitioned secret room!
Jiangnan massaged and coaxed for information outside, while in the secret room, a bunch of Orange Eyes listened intently!
Then they removed the eyes and disposed of the bodies, after which an Orange-rank emerged from the secret room for an eye-swapping surgery!
Once the transformation was complete, they went out to blend into the guard army, advertise, and trick more guards into coming for eye exercises!
As for appearance issues, after the Orange Eyes were transformed with Yuzu Eyes, their body shapes were almost no different!
Moreover, since they were using the original owner's eyes, after modification, they looked pretty much the same as before!
Besides, the Pupil Clan mostly recognized people by their eyes, so all looked alike in terms of facial features!
One could say, this whole process had formed a perfect assembly line operation!
Those who entered were guards; those who left were their own people!
And the Radiant Eye-Grabbing Wonder Room served as an excellent cover!
But Jiangnan also had to consider whether his Resentment Points would be sufficient!
After all, each eye-swapping surgery consumed several Unstoppable Little Fire Jars!
These were new consolation prizes, temporarily unavailable for purchase, only obtainable from "Thanks for Your Patronage"!
With Jiangnan's current Resentment Points stock, he couldn't sustain it for long!
Completing this plan required a massive number of eye swaps!
Having no other choice, Jiangnan had to use his ultimate move!
As the saying goes, the wool comes from the sheep!
Every one-eyed creature that underwent eye exercises would enjoy Jiangnan's full service of "peach plucking" — he'd pluck them thoroughly!
Even disgusted by the slow rate of Resentment Points earning, while plucking, he'd also hammer the big red bumps that came out of their eyes!
What about customers who resisted?
That's where Xingye Chui's role came in — she controlled her Slowing Domain to cover the shop area!
Nightingale would then "bobo" Jiangnan and Xingye Chui, granting them Extreme Speed. Customers had no chance to resist!
They could only have their peaches plucked and bumps hammered, frantically generating Resentment Points until enough for one eye-swapping surgery!
Nightingale even transformed into a one-eyed cute girl, becoming an employee under Boss Jiang!
Due to her incredible hand speed, she could handle several customers at once, greatly improving efficiency!
Even Little Walnut had trouble keeping up with the pace of transformations!
He was sweating buckets!
Zhang San, standing nearby, gaped in horror as he watched Jiangnan frantically plucking peaches and hammering bumps on a customer lying on a bed, moving so slowly he could barely stir.
This was no enjoyment in the shop — it was pure suffering!
Not only did they have their eyes taken, but they also got beaten?
This was too miserable!
Jiangnan really didn't treat people like people, did he?
The plan proceeded smoothly, and within the guard army, Little Walnut's people grew in number!
The entire Pupil City began to be silently devoured, and the fame of Radiant Eye-Grabbing Wonder Room spread far and wide!
With only about ten days left until dawn, Jiangnan had no time to waste!
In Pupil City, Jiangnan labored for his defection scheme!
Meanwhile, in Silver Moon City, no one knew Jiangnan was in Pupil City; they all assumed he was off retrieving the Spatial Spirit Core!
Only Yang Jian was aware of this!
Currently, on the Silver Moon City side, the Matrix Alliance had begun to take shape!
The second large batch of anti-Pupil Clan weapons from Boss Pang's Arsenal had arrived!
Guerrilla detachments led by Dao Heaven-rank fighters from various nations had been formed!
They were equipped with sufficient Pupil-Steel anti-Pupil Clan weapons and had begun harassing Moon Eye from multiple directions!
When the enemy advanced, we retreated! When the enemy camped, we harassed! When the enemy tired, we attacked! When the enemy retreated, we pursued!
Thanks to the anti-Pupil Clan weapons, the guerrilla detachments had the ability to counter the One-Eyed Army!
Moreover, with carefully balanced member compositions, their combat survivability was high, and their mobility was unmatched!
Dao Heaven-rank powerhouses also held the line!
Every detachment was like a sharp blade, constantly striking at the mining forces stationed in Moon Eye!
Even Zhong Yingxue, Xia Yao, and the others led their teams to join the Crimson Squad headed by Mi Ye!
They launched several sorties, achieving quite gratifying results!
As for Ruishen, who was overseeing Moon Eye, he had been driven mad by the harassment!
Faced with the constant human provocations, he could only deploy One-Eyed troops to resist, but the humans wouldn't fight — they would strike and retreat!
If he pursued too deeply, he would be ambushed by multiple teams, resulting in significant casualties!
Even if he wanted to launch a large-scale counterattack, the far side of the moon was currently in night, and the One-Eyed monsters needed to conserve energy!
If he launched a massive counterattack, would the digging at Moon Eye still continue?
Under these circumstances, the excavation progress at Moon Eye was greatly delayed!
Ruishen was furious, even leading Yego out personally several times!
But each time, Jiangning blocked him, and the human teams took the chance to retreat and hide within the God-Slaying Spell Array!
They even shot him with plasma cannons! Ruishen had never felt so stifled in his life!
He was completely annoyed! Even when he wanted to retaliate a bit, he couldn't pinpoint the guerrilla teams' attack positions, leaving him in absolute passivity!
At this moment, at the edge of Moon Eye, the roar of explosions was unceasing!
Ruishen had collapsed over a dozen craters in his rage!
"~%?…;#*'☆! Damn it all! Endless harassment! Just wait until I catch you bastards!"
Yego, standing beside him, dared not speak as he watched the enraged Ruishen.
Ruishen turned his head and asked, "How much longer until we dig down to the main body?"
Yego swallowed: "Although the mining teams are constantly being disrupted, greatly delaying progress, the two mining machines are still working!"
"And more and more Fire Seed fragments are being scattered. At the very latest, we should be able to reach the Fire Seed's main body before dawn."
Ruishen gritted his steel teeth: "Good! Very good! Playing the harassment game, are they? Let's see who can outplay whom!"
"Once I extinguish the Fire Seed and shatter the moon, let's see what you lowly mongrels can use to play with me!"
Even if they united, so what? Let them annoy me! When it comes to the most critical issue, humans are still powerless to resist!
They can only watch it all happen!
The scales of victory still tip in my favor!
But just then, a flash of Bose light suddenly converged in front of Ruishen!
It was Ruiya!
Ruishen was startled: "Sis? Why are you here…"
Before he could finish, Ruiya rushed up and began pummeling Ruishen's face with little fists!
(งᵒ̌皿ᵒ̌)ง "Why aren't you answering my horn calls? Do you know how many calls I've sent you? None of them went through!"
"I had to come all the way from Blue Star to find you! Are you doing this on purpose? I'm just… pfft hahaha!"
Midway through her punching, Ruiya burst out laughing, pointing at the fire jar on top of Ruishen's head!
ꉂꉂ◟(˃᷄ꇴ˂᷅✡) "What is that! The latest headgear? You look super lame like that, hehe~"
Ruishen: !!!
He quickly covered his head and turned away, looking disgusted!
(￢益￢) "Lame my ass! Even you're making fun of me? Who said it's new headgear? Stop laughing! Hold it in, damn it!"
"If you laugh again, I'll get angry! Due to some irresistible force, I can't take this thing off right now!"
Ruiya struggled to suppress her laughter. A red jar perched on the top of his horn... it was just too ridiculous!
But Ruishen was stunned!
"Wait… what do you mean? You're saying my horn call isn't working?"
At this, Ruiya got angry again!
(✡･᷅～･᷄) "Exactly! Why else do you think I came all the way here to find you?"
At that moment, Ruishen's face turned pitch black!
(̿▀̿̿Ĺ̯̿̿▀̿̿)̄
So that's why it's been so quiet during this time!
That jar Jiangnan pulled off — it tore out the communication function of his horn!
After testing it, Ruishen realized he really couldn't make horn calls anymore!
"Damn it! That bastard Jiangnan has ruined me!"
[From Ruishen: Resentment Points +1003!]
Ruiya quickly said, "How's the Moonless Plan going? Any confidence?"
Ruishen had no choice but to explain the current situation to Ruiya!
Upon hearing this, Ruiya's eyes lit up!
"I knew my preparations would come in handy! Listen, the humans held a roundtable meeting on the Sun Archipelago regarding the moon incident!"
"The guerilla tactics were decided at that meeting, and there's more!"
Ruiya handed over all the information she had gathered, including those two colorful snail shells!
At this, Ruishen's eyes gleamed with murderous intent!
"Good! Very good! This is a huge help! With insider information on the human camp, we can set traps and ambushes!"
"You lot enjoy playing guerrilla warfare, huh? Let's see if you can still enjoy yourselves after I eat up a few of your squads!"
Ruiya quickly cautioned, "You can only use this method once. If humans suffer consecutive setbacks, they'll inevitably suspect a mole!"
"Tolu can be exposed, but the deepest nail that Lord Igor has planted must never be revealed!"
Ruishen sneered, "Don't worry! I understand! One time is enough! That'll make them hurt!"
