Apocalypse: The Supporting Actress Made a Comeback-Chapter 740 - 395 Biting back_2

At the same time, Bai Ye had also dealt with the Mutant Beasts outside the base, and took the opportunity to extract all the Crystal Cores. By the time he entered the base, some of the inhabitants who were not severely injured or had hidden in their houses early on and were completely unharmed were already organizing rescue efforts. When they saw him and Bai Er beneath him, their expressions were not amiable.

This small base had never even had a Contracted Beast, and suddenly faced such a calamity, almost losing all its inhabitants to the jaws of Mutant Beasts and Mutated Birds. It’s natural that they wouldn’t harbor any fondness for Bai Er, and by association, they also held deep suspicion towards Bai Ye.

Bai Ye saw the malice in their eyes but was too lazy to explain himself, and instead went to find Fang Yuxin and Bai Er. The Spiritual Pets of the two were a Mutant Beast and a Mutated Bird, respectively. Although they had both saved people, the moods of those at the base were quite complicated. They were grateful for the duo’s life-saving grace but could not forget the horror of the Mutant Beasts and Mutant Bird Group. They naturally could not muster much affection for these saviors. ƒreewebɳovel.com

Watching these people with guarded and even hostile looks, Fang Yuxin’s mouth twitched. She exchanged glances with Fang Yuyang, intending to leave straight away. However, just as they were about to leave, a young man suddenly burst out and blocked their way.

This man appeared to be in his twenties, and he was very clean, with delicate skin unmarred by a single injury—likely because he had been hiding inside the whole time.

Now, he stood in front of Fang Yuxin with an attitude unafraid of life and death and questioned them righteously, "You can’t go! The attack just now—was it your doing?"

Being questioned in such a way and even being accused of such a heinous act of disregard for human life, Fang Yuxin could not help but become angry, despite not receiving thanks for saving lives. After all, they had obtained quite a few Crystal Cores and had not suffered a loss.

Her face darkened, and she watched the man who stepped forward with cold eyes and asked, "Do you have any evidence to prove that the attack was our doing?"

The young man was shaken by her imposing manner, turning a few shades paler, but he still said with righteous indignation, "Our base has never experienced such a terrifying attack before, but then this disaster strikes all of a sudden. Moreover, shortly after the attack began, you all showed up with terrifying Mutant Beasts and Mutated Birds in tow. With so many coincidences, do you dare say you had nothing to do with this attack?"

Fang Yuxin sneered, "So what do you think, why would we do such a thing?"

Upon hearing this, the young man looked at Fang Yuxin with conviction, a hint of pride in his eyes as if he had discerned the truth, "You’ve finally admitted that this attack is related to you! You deliberately orchestrated the Mutant Beast Group and Mutant Bird Group to attack our base, then showed up as rescuers to solve the problem for us. That way, we would be eternally grateful to you as our saviors. Pity for you, we’re not that stupid!"

Fang Yuxin was too lazy to deal with him anymore and was about to say something more when Fang Yuyang suddenly spoke up from his high ground, "What use is your gratitude to us? Can you give us Crystal Cores or food? If we really could control so many Mutant Beasts and Mutated Birds, selling them to someone else would earn us a fortune in Crystal Cores. Why would we kill these just to court favor with a small base like yours? Do you think you’re worth that much to us?"

His brows furrowed as he said this, then he said to Fang Yuxin, "Xinxin, come up here." Then, addressing the people below with complex looks, "Had we known you all would repay kindness with ingratitude and doubt our motives, we wouldn’t have bothered saving you!"

His words were harsh, and as soon as he finished, many people’s expressions soured.

Fang Yuxin didn’t pay them any mind. She lightly leaped onto the back of Wujin, and at the same time, Angela suddenly pounced, aiming for mid-air where Fang Yuxin was. Its body stretched out, becoming smaller as it rose, eventually shrinking to the size of a palm. Fang Yuxin caught it gently in her palm, from where Angela bounded onto her shoulder.

Only then, Fang Yuxin looked down at the people below with distasteful expressions and said, "You are maliciously slandering us, simply because you don’t want to repay us for saving you. Well, we don’t care for your gratitude. But no matter what you think, if we truly could control those Mutant Beast Groups and Mutant Bird Groups, wanting your small base would be the last of our concerns. Would it not be easier to let them consume all of you?"

After she finished, she sneered coldly, not bothering about the people with ashen faces, and left the base with Fang Yuyang. Bai Ye arrived just then, overheard their conversation, and cast a cold glance at the survivors in the base before following Fang Yuxin and Fang Yuyang out of the base.

Standing on the back of Wujin, Fang Yuxin glanced down at the wrecked base and furrowed her brows, "I was originally planning to heal those people. With so many injured, the Wood Element Superpower User in their base likely can’t handle it all. But I hadn’t expected these people to think like this!"

Seeing how upset she was, Fang Yuyang said, "They’re just a bunch of senseless people, no need to be angry over this."

Fang Yuxin nodded in understanding and then said with a frown, "We should avoid those secure bases when picking our prey next time, who knows what the people inside are thinking."

Fang Yuyang agreed, but he knew even more clearly that, should they encounter another base under siege next time, they definitely wouldn’t be able to turn a blind eye to dying people; Fang Yuxin’s words were spoken in a moment of pique.
