The evil female is weak and the males of the whole continent are out of control and fall.

Chapter 792 Countdown

Chief Rong keenly sensed that she had done more than just complete a transaction.

The other males remained silent, but their eyes scanned her face closely, not missing a single subtle change in expression.

They all clearly noticed that Wanwan's mood was off.

Faced with her partners' concerns and questions, Bai Wanwan's heart skipped a beat.

She almost blurted out that she wanted to tell them about it.

But when the words came to her lips, she swallowed them back.

If you tell them, they'll immediately fly into a rage, regret not forcibly stopping her from going in, and might even turn back now to "settle scores" with Roger.

Given their protective instincts, they would never allow such a dangerous individual with a complicated past and unclear strength to exist.

Perhaps they will take care of Roger behind her back.

Roger has survived several times, so his strength is now unfathomable.

She didn't want her beastly husband to take risks, and Roger had saved her twice, even if his motives weren't pure, the results were real.

This time, he could have used the opportunity to blackmail her, but he did nothing, did not force her to stay, and even... gave her what she needed most almost for free.

This seems... different from the ruthless Roger he remembered.

I'm about to leave this world.

The energy stone is in hand, and the road home is just around the corner.

Why stir up unnecessary trouble at the last moment and plunge the beastmen into a dangerous conflict?

Roger remains in this world, while they return to their own homes, never to have anything to do with each other again—perhaps that's the best ending.

In a flash, these thoughts raced through her mind.

She suppressed her turbulent emotions, tried to relax her expression, and even managed a relieved smile.

"It's alright, really alright," she shook her head, then took the hands of Chief Rong and Xin Feng in return. "It's just that suddenly getting so many energy stones is a bit exciting, and a bit hard to believe. We...we can leave this small world!"

She deliberately emphasized the second half of her sentence, steer the conversation in a direction that would most excite the beastmen.

"Really?" Yan Lie's attention was immediately drawn to the scene. His eyes lit up, and his previous hostility was overshadowed by the immense surprise.

"Great! This awful place... I've been living in constant fear, afraid I couldn't protect you. I don't want to stay here even a day longer! Wanwan, when are we going back?"

"Soon!" I was just thinking about Roger, and I'll be able to exchange for the time-space portal soon.

However, they don't want to go back to the beast world, but to return to the modern world!

Unlike Yan Lie, the chieftain was not immediately overwhelmed with joy.

His deep gaze remained fixed on Bai Wanwan's face. The suspicion in his heart not only did not dissipate, but spread out like ink drops in clear water.

It seems like Wanwan is hiding something.
But he didn't point it out immediately.

If Wanwan doesn't want to talk about it, then so be it. Anyway, their purpose in coming here is to obtain energy stones.

Now that they have enough energy stones, they must leave this world.

He suppressed his doubts deep in his eyes, keeping them hidden on his face. He simply stepped forward and calmly put his arm around Bai Wanwan's shoulder. "The weather has changed. Let's find a place to rest first."

Upon hearing this, Bai Wanwan looked up in the direction he indicated and discovered that the sky, which had just been somewhat gray, was now covered with low-hanging leaden clouds and faint rumbling thunder.

"Hurry up, there's an abandoned village ahead, let's go take shelter from the rain!" Yin Ze quickly determined the direction and pointed to the silhouette of a cluster of low, indistinct buildings in the distance.

The males said no more, their understanding forming instantly. They swiftly transformed; the chieftain, now a giant tiger, crouched low, hoisting his female onto his back before leaping to his feet. "Let's go!"

At a command, the giant tiger exerted force with all four paws and charged out like an arrow released from a bow.

Yan Lie, Jin Ying, Xin Feng, Hua Han, and Jiao Yin followed closely behind, their figures like ghosts, their speed leaving afterimages across the wasteland.

In the apocalypse, the weather can change in an instant. After running less than halfway, large raindrops began to fall violently without warning, instantly forming a torrential rain curtain, turning the world into a vast expanse of water.

The rain was icy cold, stinging our faces, and quickly soaked everyone inside and out.

The males gathered around, trying to shield her from the cold wind.

Bai Wanwan lowered her body and pressed herself tightly against the chieftain's back.

Just as the dilapidated village came into view, some wandering zombies blocked the way.

"Go!" Yan Lie rushed out first, taking down the zombies wandering in the village one by one with his claws.

Xin Feng found a clean and spacious house while Yan Lie and Hua Han were dealing with the zombies.

The room was covered in a thick layer of dust, but it was not contaminated by zombies.

Upon entering, the males disregarded themselves and immediately surrounded Bai Wanwan.

"Quickly, change out of your wet clothes." Xin Feng said urgently, afraid that the weather would make the female catch a cold.

As he spoke, he deftly began to undress her.

Bai Wanwan also took out towels and everyone's change of clothes from the system space.

The chief took a large towel, ignoring the water stains all over his body, and wrapped it around the female, wiping her dripping long hair and cold cheeks and neck with moderate force.

Jin Ying knelt down on one knee, helped her take off her soaking wet and heavy shoes, and wiped her cold feet with dry fur.

Hua Han and Jiao Yin quickly cleared a relatively clean spot in the corner and laid out a thick animal hide mat.

Yan Lie transformed back into human form, shook the water off his hair, and came over to help, but Xin Feng handed him a cloth, saying, "Dry yourself off first."

Bai Wanwan was taken care of meticulously and urgently. Her cold body was quickly wrapped in dry clothes and animal hides, and the chill was dispelled, replaced by a cherished warmth.

There was no need to stay another night, so while the beastmen were wiping her down, she pressed the "time portal" redemption button.

"Select the travel target..."

"Successful. Calibrating coordinates... Coordinates locked. Spacetime channel construction in progress... Countdown begins."

A huge, pale gold countdown number, visible only to her, floated in the center of the system interface...

"Alright, I'm fine now. You all should change your wet clothes quickly," Bai Wanwan said, raising her head to the beastmen surrounding her.

"No rush, let's tidy up the house first so you can rest."

Bai Wanwan stopped Xin Feng, who was about to turn around and get busy, and said, "No need to work anymore. Just rest here for a while. Once the countdown is over, we'll leave."

The males paused simultaneously, then said, "Okay."

After she was seated in a corner with animal hides laid out, the males quickly tidied themselves up.

Once they were completely dry, they came over and surrounded her to keep her warm.

Hua Han sat down beside her, put his arm around her shoulder, and made her more comfortable leaning against him.

"Why don't you take a nap first?" Jin Ying suggested.
