Surviving in the Beast World with a System-Chapter 103: The Matter of Killing a Teammate
Yuan Lang stiffened. He gave the female an inscrutable look. "This is a Beastman’s nature."
Wu Yue raised a skeptical eyebrow. "A talent for sneaking around?"
The corner of Yuan Lang’s eye twitched in the darkness. His handsome, sharply-defined face lunged closer. "Say one more thing I don’t like, and I’ll introduce you to the concept of ’rape, then kill’."
’What the hell!’
Wu Yue was utterly dumbfounded. ’What kind of bastard did I team up with? Can I kill my own teammate?’
"Host, you need to calm down. With your meager Combat Power, you’d obviously be the one getting KO’d."
The System chimed in at just the right moment, quashing Wu Yue’s impractical idea.
"System, whose side are you even on?" Wu Yue asked, narrowing her eyes.
The System: "..."
After a long, sputtering pause, it finally said, "To be honest, Host, if we weren’t already bound together—meaning if you kick the bucket, I’m done for too—I’d totally be cheering you on."
Wu Yue sneered. ’Stupid System, such a coward!’
Seeing the little female’s fuming expression, Yuan Lang arched a brow in satisfaction. ’Looks like hanging around those old dogs in the army for so long has taught me a thing or two.’
"Mmm... ah... faster..."
"Can you do it or not? If not, I’m finding someone else!"
"Yes, yes, yes, just like that... ah..."
Just as the two were glaring at each other with mutual disdain, a series of... indescribable sounds suddenly echoed from the cave they were staking out.
Yuan Lang: "..."
’Damn it, my ears!’
Wu Yue: "..."
’Damn it, my innocence is gone!’
She looked up at Yuan Lang. "Hurry up!"
’Let’s just drop the stuff and get out of here. This is seriously scarring.’
Yuan Lang: "..."
’Little female, if you say "hurry up" at a time like this, I’m going to get the wrong idea!’
He stealthily produced a small wooden pail and gave Wu Yue a look that said, ’Be patient.’ "Wait here."
With that, he entered the cave with light footsteps. A moment later, the sounds from within came to an abrupt halt.
Wu Yue: "..."
’To be interrupted at a time like this... That Yuan Lang is a real jerk.’
The tall Beastman emerged from the cave, arching a brow at Wu Yue. "Well? It’s quiet now, isn’t it."
Wu Yue forced a laugh.
The two snuck around, ruining the fun for quite a few people. Who knew how many males and females they would leave with lasting psychological scars.
After finishing their work, they went their separate ways.
She slept soundly and woke up in high spirits as the sun was rising. As the first rays of dawn brought the world to life, a chorus of female screams ripped through the last vestiges of darkness.
"AHHH!!!"
"I’m so itchy! What’s going on???"
"The witch! Quickly, go find the witch!"
The Collection Team and Hunting Team hadn’t even begun to assemble, but the tribe was already in an uproar.
Ye Duo’s Amu’s mate looked at the red welts covering her face and barely stopped himself from kicking her.
Anyone who woke up to a face like that first thing in the morning would have the same violent impulse.
Wu Yue was dragged out of bed by Qingcao. The young female seemed incredibly excited, chattering away nonstop.
She was gossiping about the miserable state of Ye Duo’s Amu and a few of the Collection Team leaders, until...
"Qingcao, hurry home! Amu has those horrible red bumps all over her too!"
Qinghua shouted, running in with an anxious look on her face.
Qingcao shot up from the grass pallet. "How could that be? Amu broke out in them too?"
Then, she turned to Wu Yue. "Yue, I have to go. I’ll come see you another day."
Without waiting for a reply, she ran out with Qinghua.
’Grandma Lu Shui broke out in them too?’ Wu Yue frowned. She distinctly remembered not applying the juice to Grandma Lu Shui yesterday.
After a moment’s thought, she got up, straightened herself out, and headed directly for Yuan Lang’s cave.
The Beastman currently had his ears drooped obediently, listening to his Amu’s scolding. However, the sight of Grandma Hua Shu grimacing in discomfort even as she berated him was actually quite comical.
