A vicious female is trapped in a beastly hell.
Chapter 619 I know you are good people
Chapter 619 I know you are good people
Shen Tang felt excruciating pain all over her body; the pain was from her soul to her body!
She gritted her teeth, forced herself to sit up, and after opening her eyes and seeing everything around her, she was completely stunned.
Before me lay a vast, desolate wasteland, the earth beneath my feet scorched and cracked, the sky shrouded in thick, smoky gray clouds. The whole world seemed to be filtered through a wasteland apocalypse lens, permeated with pollution and an ominous atmosphere, the environment so harsh it was suffocating.
Is this... an alien planet?
It feels like we've fallen into a heavily polluted area.
Shen Tang even wondered if she had come to the wrong place, as this was completely different from what she had imagined.
She looked around; there was no one.
"Ah Xiao!" She struggled to her feet, stumbling as she tried to find that familiar figure.
The only response she received was the howling wind, carrying a foul, fishy smell, as if she were the only person left in the entire world.
She seemed to have been abandoned in these ruins.
Shen Tang waited for a long time, but the figure she was looking forward to never appeared in the sky, and her hope sank little by little.
Recalling the time when the two of them passed through the vortex, it seemed that they encountered some kind of spatial turbulence, and afterwards she could no longer sense Lu Xiao's presence.
That's probably when the two got separated.
Where is Ah Xiao now? Is he alright?
Shen Tang tried hard to calm herself down, but sadness and confusion kept welling up in her heart. She took a few deep breaths, her nose tingled, and her whole body felt weak.
She closed her eyes, forcing herself to keep thinking.
The passage built by the vampires is a special passage connecting the Beast World Continent and the alien planet. Lu Xiao should have successfully arrived at the alien planet, but it is unknown where he landed or whether he will encounter any danger.
If he finds out she's gone, he must be anxiously looking for her, right?
How anxious he must be right now...
Shen Tang tried to locate Lu Xiao's position using the system, but found that the system was also malfunctioning.
She called out several times, but the system did not respond and, just like last time, fell into a deep sleep again.
Shen Tang felt less panicked.
The system's current state, in fact, confirmed her suspicions.
The main system and the aliens are indeed in cahoots!
This area is considered half of the main system's territory. The system was probably forced into a dormant state to upgrade due to its influence, but it's unknown when it will wake up.
Fortunately, although the system is dormant, the items in the space shop and backpack are still usable.
This is the only consolation for now.
Shen Tang gazed at the desolate and barren land before her, not a single intact building in sight. She didn't know where to go, and could only wander aimlessly, guided only by her intuition.
The radiation here seemed very strong. Shen Tang hadn't walked for long before her skin started to burn, and even breathing became difficult.
She currently lacks superpowers and cannot form a protective barrier on her body. Fearing that she might "die before she even gets started," she quickly bought an energy protective suit from the system shop and put it on, then downed a bottle of high-level recovery potion before feeling a little better.
Boom——
The ground suddenly cracked.
A huge shadow loomed over Shen Tang, who was thrown several meters away by the force of the impact. When she looked up, she saw a huge insect-shaped beast!
Her pupils suddenly contracted.
The insect-like beast resembled an ant, yet it was as tall as a two-story building. Its six jet-black legs, like sickles, were planted in the ground. It moved with eerie speed, instantly rushing back to her, raising one of its forelegs, and viciously stabbing at her!
Those sharp, insect-like limbs could easily pierce through her body!
Shen Tang's face turned pale. He quickly rolled away to dodge and pulled out a special ability gun, shooting it at the insect beast's head.
The mutated insectoid beast let out a shrill scream and staggered back a few steps.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Shen Tang bought a high-level bomb from the system store and threw it at it.
With a loud bang, smoke and dust filled the air, but the next second, the giant insect angrily burst out of the smoke and launched another fierce attack on her.
"Damn it!" Shen Tang cursed inwardly. This insect beast had at least the strength of an eighth-level superpower. In the past, she could have killed it instantly with ease, but now she had no superpowers and could only dodge in a sorry state and fight back with her weapon.
Finally, she seized an opportunity and slid under the insect beast's belly—
There was a yellowish-green area there, not covered by the black armor, which looked like a translucent tissue formed by energy crystallization.
She quickly applied the explosive adhesive to the area, then rolled away to a distance of more than ten meters.
Another loud bang! Before the ant-beast could catch up, its body exploded into countless fragments!
Shen Tang had just gotten up from the ground and hadn't even had a chance to catch her breath when the earth shook violently again.
In the distance, countless black dots were flying towards them from the sky—swarms of insects and beasts!
Her face turned deathly pale instantly.
Oh no, I forgot that ants live in colonies!
Even if she recovered her peak combat power, it would still be a fierce battle against thousands of high-level alien beasts, let alone the fact that she is a weakling right now!
Shen Tang quickly took out a recovery potion from his spatial storage and drank it down. He also bought an invisibility item that could conceal his presence and a speed-up pill, and then ran away without looking back.
……
The boundless, scorched wasteland is barren, with nothing but collapsed ruins and exposed rocks.
A small cat-like creature nimbly darted through the ruins.
Upon closer inspection, it looks quite unique, with its body half white and half black, like an elf that doesn't belong in this world.
Shen Tang has been here for several days, but the system has yet to wake up, and she is still unsure of the specifics of this world.
She had initially held onto a sliver of hope that Lu Xiao might be nearby, but after searching for dozens of miles around, she still couldn't find him.
Reality is always cruel.
It seems that they are very far apart, and may not even be in the same area!
In the past few days, Shen Tang has also encountered many dangerous mutated beasts. Any one of them could wipe out a small tribe in the Beast World Continent, and there are even several tenth-tier ones!
She had narrowly escaped death several times; this place was more dangerous than she had imagined. She needed to learn about this strange world as soon as possible.
Suddenly, the sounds of fierce fighting came from not far away.
Shen Tang's eyes flickered, and she quietly moved closer.
A team of superpowered individuals is fighting a group of mutated beasts.
There are four males and two females in the group.
They are quite strong and have excellent teamwork.
The leading man was tall and imposing, with dark brown hair and a handsome face. He looked to be only in his early twenties, but his strength had already reached the tenth level. In the Beast World Continent, he would definitely be a genius among one in ten thousand!
The other three males and one female are all at the ninth-tier combat level and have outstanding talents.
There was also a beautiful girl with purplish-red curly hair. She was slightly weaker, only at the early stage of the eighth rank, but she actually possessed a precious healing ability!
You should know that on this battlefield where life and death hang in the balance, healing ability users are even more sought after than tenth-tier orcs!
This squad's configuration and combat strength are top-notch on the Beast World continent, but the mutated beasts they face are equally powerful and their numbers are terrifying, including three tier 10 beasts.
The team members were already covered in injuries and their strength was gradually failing.
Shen Tang didn't want to meddle in other people's business, especially since the other party was an alien beastman. Although she knew she shouldn't vent her hatred on ordinary people who were unrelated to her, she really couldn't feel any goodwill towards the beastmen here.
She turned to leave, but then stopped in her tracks.
After hesitating for a moment, I decided to go anyway.
This is a ready-made opportunity; she needs to integrate into this team.
Only by staying with the native orcs can we learn about this continent more quickly and find Lu Xiao and his group sooner.
Qin Han and his men were fighting desperately when they suddenly heard a panicked cry for help coming from not far away: "Help!"
Everyone turned around in shock and saw a female stumbling and running towards them.
Her hair was disheveled, her clothes were tattered, and she looked like a female ghost fleeing from disaster. Several high-level mutated beasts were chasing after her, heading straight for them.
The entire squad was dumbfounded.
They're all barely able to protect themselves, don't attract trouble here!
Unfortunately, the two groups still bumped into each other.
Shen Tang grabbed one of the people's arms and pleaded, "Please save me! If you save me, I will repay you handsomely!"
Qin Han frowned slightly, pulled her behind him, and said in a deep voice, "Stay away, don't get in the way."
Before he finished speaking, his supernatural power had already condensed into a large blade, which he slashed fiercely at the head of a mutated beast, instantly piercing through its hard scales, and the head rolled to the ground.
Shen Tang's eyes lit up as she looked at his valiant and agile skills.
Although the other party was an alien beastman, she always had an instinctive admiration for the strong. This man was the strongest, probably the captain.
The team quickly dealt with the several eighth-tier mutated beasts that Shen Tang had attracted.
However, there were still a dozen or so ninth-tier and three tenth-tier mutated beasts remaining on the field, which were extremely troublesome. After a long battle, the team members were already at their limit and probably wouldn't be able to hold out for much longer.
Shen Tang secretly helped out a few times, but fortunately, the scene was chaotic and no one noticed her.
After a fierce battle, the mutated beasts on the field were finally wiped out.
The man from before walked up to her, scrutinizing her. "Who are you? What are you doing here?"
Shen Tang looked up, her eyes red, as if she were terrified. She stammered softly, "Thank you for saving me... I... I don't know how I got here. Those monsters were so scary..."
The man's handsome brows furrowed even more deeply.
He looked at the woman in front of him. Her hair was messy and her face was covered in dust, making it impossible to see her features clearly. However, her clear black eyes were exceptionally charming, with the corners of her eyes slightly upturned. This made him catch his breath and feel as if his heart was being gently squeezed.
“You…” He was speechless for a moment, and when he came to his senses, his brows furrowed even more deeply.
He even suspected she might be a fox-type beastman with charm abilities, but then he discovered that she... didn't have any supernatural energy fluctuations at all?!
The other team members also gathered around, and when they realized that Shen Tang had no supernatural abilities, they all showed surprised expressions.
How could a female without any special abilities appear alone in such a place?
Was he abandoned by the team because he was too useless?
Or were all her teammates dead, leaving her the only one left?
In any case, a female without any special abilities who stays here will only face certain death.
The boy with bluish-red hair in the group stepped forward. He had delicate features, almond-shaped eyes, and a baby face, and seemed very approachable. "It's too dangerous for you to be here alone. You'll get eaten by monsters. Why don't you come with us?"
The girl with the purplish-red curly hair immediately retorted, "Zhai Chen, are you crazy? Why are you bringing a female of unknown origin on the road!"
Another thin man chimed in, "If she had superpowers, that would be one thing, but she's a useless piece of trash who doesn't even have any superpowers and only drags us down!"
The curly-haired girl snorted smugly, "Exactly, why bring a burden along? Let her fend for herself."
The girl with short white hair couldn't stand it anymore and couldn't help but speak up, "Isn't that the same as sending her to her death? That's too heartless. Since we've met, it must be fate. There's nothing we'll lose by taking her back to the shelter, right?"
The two females probably don't get along, and these words only added fuel to the fire.
The girl with purplish-red curly hair crossed her arms and sneered, "Bai Lei, stop pretending to be a good person! We can barely take care of ourselves, and you're still overflowing with saintly compassion?"
"you……"
Yuna turned to look at the most silent male in the group. He was a big guy who was over two meters tall, with muscles as solid as a mountain. The dog ears and tail on his head indicated that he was a mastiff beastman.
The female raised her chin. "Duen, what do you think? Should we keep this female of unknown origin? Let's vote!"
Dunn is honest and doesn't usually have much of his own opinion.
He scratched his head, looked at the tall, handsome young man not far away, and said woodenly, "I... I'll listen to the captain..."
"Elm head!"
Yuna then turned to the man called the captain, immediately adopting a coquettish tone, "Brother Qin Han, let's not meddle in other people's business, let's go!"
Qin Han merely glanced at Shen Tang, then turned and walked forward, leaving behind the words, "If you don't want to die, follow me."
Shen Tang's eyes lit up, and she replied sweetly, flattered, "Thank you, Captain!" and quickly followed.
"Captain, you..." Yuna stomped her foot in anger, snorted, and reluctantly followed the group.
Shen Tang continued on her journey with the team.
They saw almost no living creatures along the way and were forced to fight several waves of mutated enemies.
They walked all day and showed no sign of resting.
Shen Tang was both hungry and thirsty when she suddenly saw a river not far away. Water resources were extremely scarce in this area, and this was the first time she had seen a river in all the days she had been there.
The river water looked very clean and clear, which was a great temptation for thirsty passersby. She subconsciously took two steps in that direction.
A hand pulled her back just in time, and a gentle female voice came from the side, "Don't go over there, this water is polluted and poisonous. An ordinary orc will die if he drinks it! Even his bones will rot!"
Shen Tang seemed startled and nodded, saying, "I know, I'm just going to take a look."
This place is polluted everywhere; she wouldn't dare drink it even if she were dying of thirst!
The girl with short white hair explained, "Don't be fooled by how safe it seems there. Mutant beasts often lurk underwater or nearby. If you see a river like this in the future, it's best to stay away and never go near it."
Shen Tang said gratefully, "Thank you for reminding me, I'll remember."
The girl with short white hair looked at her with a hint of helplessness, "You're really different from others, it's like you don't know anything."
Shen Tang was speechless; she really didn't know anything.
Fortunately, the other person was very outgoing and didn't ask any more questions. She quickly introduced her teammates to her, "My name is Bai Lei, a white bear beastman. That big guy is called Dunn, a mastiff. He doesn't talk much, but he has a very good temper. If you need any help, you can ask him."
The baby-faced boy also came over with a grin and said, "My name is Zhai Chen, from the Bird Clan. Those two who don't welcome you are named Cole, from the Crow Clan, and Yuna, from the Butterfly Clan... They may have a sharp tongue, but they're not bad at heart, so don't take it to heart."
Shen Tang nodded, "I know I'm a burden, I don't blame them. Thank you for being willing to save me and for letting me stay in the team."
Bai Lei laughed heartily, "It's alright, it's fate that we've met~ In a place like this, having more friends means having more options!"
Shen Tang listened, feeling somewhat conflicted.
She hated the aliens who invaded the continent to the core, but Bai Lei and the others... seemed no different from the beastmen she had seen on the Beast World Continent.
Her gaze unconsciously drifted toward the tall figure at the very front of the group.
Zhai Chen noticed her gaze, raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Isn't our captain handsome? He's such a young man and already a tenth-tier beastman. There are so many females in the sanctuary who like him."
Bai Lei glared at him. "Stop talking nonsense. The captain hates it when people talk about his private affairs."
Zhai Chen stuck out her tongue and slipped away to find Du En.
Bai Lei continued to introduce Shen Tang, "The male who saved you is our captain, Qin Han. Don't let his cold demeanor fool you, he's actually a very nice person."
Shen Tang said softly, "I know, you saved me, you are all good people."
Bai Lei was a little embarrassed by the compliment. She scratched her head, took out a pack of wet wipes from her spatial backpack, tore off two wipes and handed them to her. "Your face is all dirty, I can't even see your face clearly. Wipe it off."
