Stunningly beautiful yet wicked, she begins by conquering eight beast husbands.

Chapter 26 is all good except for its flaws.

Chi Ye's muscles are very firm and don't feel rough or uncomfortable.

But Scarlett was too lazy to be picky.

Safety first.

She glanced at the ground when she had a spare moment.

Chi Ye is nearly two meters tall. From her current angle, everything appears smaller, giving her a wider field of vision and a real sense of being on top of the world.

Fortunately, she wasn't afraid of heights.

Otherwise, I would definitely faint now.

……

……

Five minutes later, the two arrived at the supply point, which was also their agreed meeting point.

The other three had already arrived and were sitting there chatting. When Riley saw them, especially Scarlett who was perched on Chi Ye's shoulder, his expression changed drastically. His dark green eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he stared at her for a few seconds before looking away.

Scarlett climbed off Chi Ye's shoulder, staggered a few steps before regaining her balance, and Chi Ye offered a hand to her but quickly withdrew his hand.

Scarlett glanced at the supply point.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

She thought the supply point was a house that could provide shelter, or at least a simple hut where sleeping wouldn't be a problem.

To everyone's surprise, this so-called supply point turned out to be an empty lot—absolutely nothing!

There's something different about it.

That's because the moon overhead was exceptionally bright.

The surrounding environment was exceptionally quiet.

The wind wasn't too cold; it felt quite gentle as it brushed against me.

Aside from its drawbacks, it's all advantages.

Scarlett sighed.

Next time I plan a trip, I'll also do some research on the surrounding environment, so I won't be caught off guard and feel uneasy.

Scarlett sat down next to Sevier.

Overall.

She only trusts Sevier now.

But today, Sevia was acting strangely; when I met her gaze, my first reaction was to look away.

Scarlett paused, taken aback.

They remained silent.

"Alright, now that everyone's here, let's plan the route and assign tasks."

Once everyone was present, Riley quickly got into the zone.

The monster carrying the key is clever; it won't attack people unless provoked, but it will ambush them. The target of its ambush is undoubtedly Scarlett.

Therefore, Scarlett must have someone protecting her 24 hours a day.

Scarlett raised her hand hesitantly: "Aren't the five of us supposed to act together?"

Riley explained, “Your Highness, the monsters won’t appear alone; they will come in groups to divide us. And not every monster that attacks us carries a key, so the scene we face while fighting the monsters will be very chaotic.”

Scarlett nodded.

Among them, Zheke and Chiye have the highest mental strength and the same superpower level, but Chiye's superpower level is one level higher.

Logically speaking, Chi Ye should be able to protect Scarlett without any problems.

Riley, however, suggested, "Your Highness, Sevier is suitable to protect you."

Sevilla was taken aback and slowly raised her head.

Scarlett looked at Riley, puzzled.

Riley said, "Sevier's ability is the Absolute Domain, which can take you into a void space where you are impervious to blades, bullets, water, and fire, enough to isolate you from all dangers. You can stay inside until we kill the monsters and then come out."

"That's amazing?" Scarlett asked Sevilla.

Sevier gave a soft "hmm" and didn't speak, looking sullen and displeased, completely lacking energy.

Scarlett wondered what had happened to Saviour during her time in the Lost Continent, but for now, she pretended not to know and readily agreed to Riley's suggestion that Saviour protect herself.

As for the route.

This area is not large, and the roads are straight. The best route is to start from the east and go west.

Everything has been discussed and agreed upon.

Scarlett complained that she was hungry and wanted to eat first. After eating, she said she was sleepy and wanted to go to sleep, and would leave when it was light the next day.

Everyone understood that it was normal for her to be afraid to travel at night since it was her first time visiting the Lost Continent, so they postponed their departure by one day.

Anyway, the food I prepared was enough to last a week.

This open space can keep monsters out.

The group will camp here tonight.

Tents were prepared in the ring space, all for single people, so that no one would disturb the others.

Scarlett was worried and wouldn't allow them to sleep too far away; they had to sleep around her, with her in the middle.

Chi Ye chuckled and tried to scare her: "Don't worry, the monsters in the Lost Continent are smart. They'll skip us and eat you directly."

Scarlett glared at him: "Then you'd better worry about yourself. If I die, you won't survive either!"

Before Chi Ye could refute.

Scarlett crawled into her tent, but still feeling uneasy, she took out the damage-free tent she had bought from the store. Fortunately, this tent wasn't very big, and the tents Chi Ye had prepared had plenty of space, so the two tents overlapped without any problems.

Scarlett lay inside peacefully.

After thinking for a moment, I continued to collect the props.

A small robot, about the size of an apple, is placed at the entrance of a tent. It will immediately sound an alarm if any living thing approaches, and the sound is loud enough to be heard within a kilometer.

Scarlett was relieved.

The piercing alarm went off, startling her so much that her hand trembled.

Looking up, I saw a blurry figure outside the tent.

Scarlett turned off the sound, unzipped the tent, and poked her little head out.

A pair of light-colored eyes, bright and playful, searched for a figure.

Zheko stood outside. When he saw her, his eyes flickered. He bent his knees slightly, squatted down beside her, and opened his palm to her, revealing three round, dark jade stones.

Zheko said, "This is a cypress tree. Take it and use it to enhance your spiritual power."

Scarlett knew the value of the cypress, so she didn't stand on ceremony, picked it up, and said "thank you."

Seeing that Zheko had nothing else to say, he pulled his head back and zipped up his pants.

Just as Zheko was about to get up, he heard another "screeching" sound.

Scarlett opened the tent a second time.

She raised her little head first, then tilted her bright, moon-like face up to look at him. "You did a good job, Major Zheko. I'll give you extra living expenses when we get back."

Her eyebrows lifted in a smile, her beauty as lovely as a painting.

Zheko's gaze lingered for two seconds, his voice slightly stiff: "You're welcome."

This time, the tent zipper is officially closed.

Scarlett absorbed the spirit cypress using the method she found on the StarNet.

Three breaths passed.

Three cypress trees disappeared before her eyes.

She could clearly feel her mental strength increase slightly, but it didn't level up.

Even so, Scarlett was still quite happy, lying in her sleeping bag and smiling as she looked forward to tomorrow.

Outside the tent.

As Zheko stood up and turned to go back to his tent, he found Riley standing behind him, looking at him with a half-smile.

Those dark green eyes, like surging tides, rippled with dark light.

"What? Aren't you asleep yet?"

Dzeko walked toward Riley with a calm expression.

Riley laughed and said, "I can't sleep."

He glanced at Scarlett's tent, but before he could speak.

Zheko spoke first: "I got three juniper trees today, level one, but they're useless to me, so I gave them to Scarlett."

This explanation is actually unnecessary.

They were accompanying Scarlett to level up, and logically, the Spirit Cypress and Moon Soul would be given to Scarlett.

Riley raised an eyebrow and continued with a smile, "You're lucky."

Spirit cypress is only found among high-level monsters in leveling areas.

Riley's words were a genuine compliment.

For some reason, Zheko felt there was another meaning behind those words, which made him uncomfortable. He turned to Riley and asked bluntly, "What are you trying to say?"

Riley's smile faded slightly as he said, "Today, Saviour saw me kill Scarlett. He was very nervous, knelt down and begged me to die in Scarlett's place."

"and then?"

When Zheko recalled the scene of meeting Scarlett, his voice was deep and sounded calm.

Riley said the same thing: "Then I asked him why. He said Scarlett had changed for the better and we should give her a chance. You tell me, give her a chance?"

Riley emphasized the word "she," with a hint of a faint smile at the end.

After saying that, his eyes shone with an eerie light.

Zheko looked directly into Riley's eyes, his amber gaze revealing an unusual calmness. "What do you think?"

He understood that the "she" Riley was referring to might not be Scarlett.

He wasn't particularly murderous, wasn't interested in others, and his demands weren't as strong as others'.

He could kill Scarlett or divorce her.

Since both were of equal weight, he couldn't make a choice, so he simply handed it over to someone else.

Riley wasn't surprised by the answer. He smiled, his voice clear and pleasant.

He patted Dzeko on the shoulder. "See you tomorrow."
