Chapter 905 Myriad Thieving Fox
Chapter 905 Myriad Thieving Fox
The once peaceful Trinity Alliance Mountains had fallen into chaos in the last two years, and all this was resulting from the emergence of a mysterious thief!
No one knows where this thief came from, his race, or his true purpose. But the higher-ups of the Trinity Alliance Mountains considered this guy an outsider because he appeared right at the time when the Trinity Alliance Mountains Realm was left open by the three ancestors so the other members of their races could enter.
However, they couldn’t complain or seek help from their ancestors because they were now in life-and-death seclusion, and disturbing them for a petty thief was akin to seeking death.
Furthermore, if the thief could sneak inside, it was also their fault for being lax in their security, and now they were facing a massive crisis. 𝓵𝒊𝒃𝙧𝙚𝒂𝓭.𝓬𝙤𝙢
The thief first appeared in Blood City of Hunters and remained active there for over a year, and in that year, he left his deep mark on everyone’s mind. He stole from almost everyone except for the lords of the city.
It was then the name Myriad Thieving Fox started to spread all over the Trinity Alliance Mountains Realm. Every time the thief stole, he left behind a Qi stone coin with his name on one side and a black mark of a fox’s face on the other side!
The situation became even more grave when the people from the outside world entered for the first time and gave everyone the complete details about the events that happened in the outside world in all these years.
Only then did the natives of the Trinity Alliance Mountains realize that the appearance of the thief was nothing but trouble, and they put all their forces into capturing this Myriad Thieving Fox.
However, not only did they fail to find his traces, but he continued his thievery in the Mighty Demon City, and the situation was as bad as the Blood City, if not worse.
One had to know these people were all either elite of the three races or their descendants, yet they can’t even stop a thief from stealing, much less capturing him.
The situation turned so bad that the First Lord of the Demon City blew off almost half of the city just because he thought he sensed an unknown presence, but it turned out nothing.
Today, the thieveries started to in the All Devil City, and despite the devils making all sorts of arrangements, this turned them into a laughingstock among the other two cities, and both demons and hunters were gloating and celebrating like it was a festival.
The devils could only fume in silence because they were berating and jeering at the two races for their incompetence in letting a thief walk all over them, and they even refused to help because they were busy raising their defenses. Yet all the preparation turned out for nothing.
Because they all knew that the thief would move on to their city once he was done with the demons, just like what happened to the hunters.
Although their prediction turned out to be accurate, other than that, nothing went as they had planned, and now the thief was finally among them. The atmosphere of the devil city was gloomy and war-like.
The devils quickly responded, closing the entire city and combing through the city like crazy hounds on the first day after the incident. The three devil lords also partake in this endeavor, which was a pretty big deal!
At this moment, Ace was in a trance, and suddenly, the surrounding space started to tremble a little. Ace’s eyes snapped open the next moment, and the trembling space around stopped.
“Law of Space is infinite just like Darkness…” Ace muttered as his eyes shone with realization, and he quickly opened his law section in his status.

Ace’s eyes narrowed ever so slightly, ‘Even after consuming the insight pill. I was only able to comprehend 4.99% of [Space] law. Furthermore, the Absolute Pick Pocket is directly combined with comprehending the law of space and has four realms like Element Law Proficiency (Minor, Initial, Intermediate, and Advanced).
‘At Minor Realm of Absolute Pick Pocket, I can only steal a random treasure from a storage space treasure around Grade-0 to Grade-1. While at Initial Realm, I could peek into a storage space treasure (Grade-0 to Grade-3) for a second and still could only grab one treasure. Only at the intermediate realm, it becomes beneficial…’ Ace mused and sighed ruefully as he was hoping to get a higher result than this.
However, the space law was just too complex, and he was only comprehending it using the Absolute Pick Pocket as a reference, and he had yet to come in contact with any skill or art related to space law.
Furthermore, he had yet to see anyone using space law or even heard of it; it was as if they didn’t even exist in this place.
Still, he had at least taken a step towards comprehending the law of space, and despite it being only small, he could now feel a strange reasoning with the surrounding space.
Ace then didn’t think about it anymore and checked the house members’ progress to see if they had all reached the veteran member rank or not.

Ace was startled when he saw those notes and quickly opened the details, and when he saw all of them were undergoing the same mission, he was shocked even more.
‘So, they all needed to score a ten million thievery without seeking my or others’ help. I had a feeling that the system would play a trick like this since it never gives away free things. But it’s bizarre: Winter was far behind both of them, yet the difference between her and Freya, who started first, is just 23 days.
‘Last time I check, Freya was only a thievery away from getting veteran member rank, and Noa was over five thousand away from her. But Winter was over a hundred thousand. How did she cover this gap so quickly?
‘Furthermore, was only in insight state for a few days? I can’t even contact her or find her since it might make her fail her mission, and I’ll hear no end to it if that happens.
‘Well, whatever the case is, I should get going since they are now veteran members. Furthermore, if I raise an upheaval of my own, this won’t mean I’m helping Winter…’ Ace’s lips curled up in a sly smile. Just thinking about undermining the system makes him giddy.
The next moment, Ace stood up and headed outside with a cruel glint in his eyes, ‘Devil Ancestor, let me test my new authority on you, and then I’ll make sure to bury the Blood Ancestor for what she had done to Alina!’
