Survival Game: Call Me an Honest Businessman

The two fox-like beastmen whispered among themselves for a while, then one of them asked somewhat warily, "What will happen if I can't pay back the money?"

Li Zhi: "There's not much to do. You just need to keep working for me. The work isn't difficult. It's just collecting resources from the trial area, exactly the same as what you're doing now. It's like you can get a pair of boots with attribute points without putting in almost anything."

The fox-orc repeatedly asked, "Even if I didn't give you the money, would you still give me the boots right now?"

Li Zhi smiled and said, "Yes, you can take it away now, and its attributes will immediately increase."

Fox-clan beastman: "I'll sign!"

The contract is now in effect.

Li Zhi created a new group and invited the fox-clan beastmen to join.

"Alright, I have something to do. I'll contact you in the group if I need anything."

Fox-clan beastman: "My lord, what should we do with these two newly formed races?"

Li Zhi: "Call me boss, and do whatever you want with me."

On the map, there were more and more coordinates on the side of the white bear orcs, so Li Zhi didn't delay any longer and sped up to head there.

It had been less than two hours since Li Zhi last visited this area, but when he returned, it had changed drastically.

A large number of trees have fallen.

The swamp soil was turned up and was everywhere.

The once clear lake has become murky, with mud and blood mixed together, and upon closer inspection, chunks of flesh can be seen floating on the surface.

Li Zhi turned his gaze to the white bear beastman.

She was no longer as relaxed as before; her white hair was smeared with blood and mud, and there was a deep wound on her shoulder that exposed the bone.

But the jade heart is still in her hands.

Or rather, at her feet.

It was carelessly thrown on the ground.

But the mud and blood on the ground seemed to form a barrier, and no one dared to go forward to pick them up.

Li Zhi didn't dare.

She hid in the crowd, waiting for an even more chaotic moment.

If the Emerald Heart could be buried deeper into the mud during the fight, she could use a clever trick to retrieve it.

This moment didn't take long to arrive.

The tiger-tribe beastman named Yashi walked up to the white bear beastman.

"Snow White, let's have a fight."

When the white bear orc Bai Xue stomped his foot, the ground, lake, and leaves trembled simultaneously.

"Come!"

This was the first time Li Zhi had witnessed a battle between orcs.

Yashi was agile, and Baixue was strong.

Whenever Yaxi's claws tore at Bai Xue's flesh, although Bai Xue's reaction speed was not that fast, her thick fur could block most of the attack.

Therefore, she only attacks and never defends.

Although every palm strike missed, everyone knew that if she landed a solid palm strike on Yaxi, Yaxi would instantly lose her mobility.

But Yashi was really quick.

She was like a born warrior, calculating the location and evasion point for every move, and never lingering in battle.

She wouldn't be arrogant if she hurt Bai Xue; she would remain calm even if she didn't hurt Bai Xue.

The two fought back and forth.

Bai Xue had many wounds on her body.

If Yaxi is occasionally hit by Bai Xue's palm strike, her skin will be torn and bleeding instantly.

Li Zhi suddenly remembered the "You can try touching the tiger clan's butt" option on his attribute panel.

—Dog Game really wanted her dead!

Li Zhi was absolutely certain that if she dared to touch Ya Xi's butt, even with the Speed ​​Boots and attribute bonuses, she wouldn't be able to react before Ya Xi's claws tore her apart.

This has nothing to do with the level of attributes.

It's all about combat awareness and muscle reflexes.

Li Zhi dared not look any further, fearing that the more he looked, the more guilty he would feel.

She stealthily moved to a range of 100 meters and found a stone in the space that was about the same size as the Jade Heart, activating the "Heaven and Earth Change" technique.

In an instant, the stone vanished, replaced by a jade heart stained with mud and blood.

Li Zhi immediately inserted it into the pendant.

Even without being made into a card, the Emerald Heart icon still hangs in the sky above this area's map.

Neither Ashi nor Snow White noticed that the Emerald Heart had disappeared.

They were all injured, but they showed no sign of stopping. Each strike was heavier and more agile than the last.

Seeing this made Li Zhi feel a dull ache all over his body.

She dared not look again, and pretended to back away as if nothing had happened. No one noticed her departure, and no one cared whether she stayed or left.

When they were almost at the edge of the area, Li Zhi found a secluded corner, quickly converted the Emerald Heart into a card, and then flashed back into the crowd.

Within two seconds, someone noticed the anomaly.

"The Emerald Heart is gone!"

"What?"

"Really! It's not on my map anymore!"

Yashi and Baixue stopped at the same time.

Snow immediately dug into the ground, and Yashi followed suit, searching through the mud.

After a while, Yashi found a small black stone.

Bai Xue slammed her hand on the ground in anger: "Damn thief!"

Yashi roared, "Who is it! Hand it over or I'll tear you to pieces!"

The onlookers, all feeling uneasy, exchanged bewildered glances while desperately trying to prove themselves:

"It wasn't me; I've been standing here the whole time."

"It wasn't me! I...I...I wouldn't dare!"

"It wasn't me, I was the furthest away."

The trial participants of different races offered their explanations all at once.

Some people are puzzled, some offer their own evidence, and others think rationally:

"The person who stole the Emerald Heart has definitely left. The Emerald Heart only disappears after leaving this area, so it's definitely not someone from here."

However, some people countered: "If it went to another area, why isn't it shown on the map? I think someone stole it and used it directly after leaving."

Everyone chimed in with their own opinions.

Bai Xue roared, "Shut up!"

She stomped heavily on the ground, the violent vibrations from each step sending chills down the spines of the trial participants present: "I swear! I'll fight this thief to the death! If I find her, I'll tear her flesh apart and rip out her guts to feed the fish!"

Yashi's eyes were icy: "I will make those who have played me pay a terrible price."

Li Zhi huddled in the crowd, head down, not daring to utter a single word.

They resembled a small, terrified race.

The Emerald Heart was gone, and Ash and Snow were enraged once again. None of the trial participants wanted to stay here any longer, lest they be caught in the crossfire.

Li Zhi quietly retreated with the main force.

Just as they were about to leave the area, a group of hyena beastmen, surrounding the strongest hyena beastman, appeared here.

Beside her were the beast-eared women they had previously chased.

The woman with animal ears swept her gaze across the crowd and landed directly on Li Zhi, revealing an extremely pleased smile: "My lord, it's her."

The lead hyena beastman looked at Li Zhi.

"New race, I challenge you."
