The Wicked Female Is Wild and Scheming, Living in a Love Battlefield Every Day-Chapter 347 - 277: Divine-level Forging Skill (2)
And then some incomprehensible actions were taken.
Kian Sterling couldn’t even compare to Corbin Crowley, let alone Zeke Veridian and Malachi Arcanus.
That’s why she gradually started to neglect Kian, not because of Soren Phoenix’s appearance,
but because she saw things more clearly and was no longer confused by the other party’s performance.
You can’t really call it neglect; it’s more like the former favoritism has diminished.
Jade’s struggle flickered in Zeke Veridian’s emerald eyes. He pursed his lips, looking at Luna Sutton for a long time before speaking hoarsely, "Alright, I’ll try my best."
As long as he had a place in her heart, he was willing to try to accept what he couldn’t before.
As long as she was happy and joyful.
Just then, a cheerful system prompt sounded in Luna Sutton’s mind: "Ding! Congratulations, Host. Zeke’s affection level increased by 5, reaching a full score of 100, achieving unwavering loyalty. The Host is rewarded with the ultimate gift package."
Luna Sutton felt a surge of joy in her heart; she hadn’t anticipated that an unexpected turn of events would raise Zeke’s affection level to the maximum.
She instinctively checked the system panel in her mind.
Sure enough, she saw Zeke’s affection level had gone from 95 to 100, with the small note "unwavering loyalty" beside it.
"System, for the ultimate gift package, do I still draw from three chests?"
She remembered that when Corbin Crowley and Malachi Arcanus reached unwavering loyalty, the system also presented three chests for her to choose from.
It’s like a lottery, entirely relying on luck.
"That’s right~"
The system’s voice rang out cheerfully, "Please choose one of the following three chests, Host."
Three dazzling treasure chests suddenly appeared before her eyes, each exuding a mysterious glow.
Luna Sutton hesitated for a moment and then pointed her finger at the middle chest.
In Zeke Veridian’s eyes, the action looked like she gently brushed aside his hair.
"Click" went a sound.
The chest erupted with showers of fireworks. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞
Only she could see this spectacle.
Once again, nothing tangible appeared.
"Ding! Congratulations Host, you have received the [Divine-level Forging Skill]"
The system’s voice was jubilant, "This skill grants the Host divine-level forging abilities, allowing the creation of mythical artifacts unknown to this world, provided the materials are available. Does the Host wish to learn now?"
Her eyes shimmered; she hadn’t expected to draw the miraculous forging skill this time.
Isn’t this exactly what’s needed right now?
She had been worrying about how to refine these ores before going back.
It’s like getting a pillow when you’re drowsy; now there’s nothing to worry about.
She was filled with delight and immediately said in her mind, "Learn."
As soon as she spoke, a profound insight filled her mind, precisely about the divine-level forging skill.
Zeke noticed her distraction, his emerald eyes narrowing slightly, "What’s the matter?"
"Nothing."
Suppressing her excitement, she tiptoed to peck him on the lips, "I just suddenly thought, once we return to the tribe, we can use these ores to forge many powerful weapons and useful items."
Just as Luna Sutton was speaking, a wolf howl echoed in the distance.
Corbin Crowley had returned at some point, his silver eyes glinting coldly in the night, carrying a freshly hunted snow deer.
He strode over, tossing his prey onto the ground, raising a cloud of dust.
"Eat this."
He said with a stern face, slicing off the most tender piece of venison, roasting it over the fire, and removing it when it was about seven-tenths cooked.
Then he used his ice ability to freeze it into thin slices, handing them to Luna Sutton, "It’s more tender than that wild buffalo meat."
Luna Sutton was momentarily stunned, then burst into laughter.
This man...clearly was jealous, yet expressed it in such a manner.
She took the iced venison, bit into it, and found it indeed tender and juicy, melting instantly in her mouth.
"Delicious."
She smiled with her eyes, unabashedly giving a compliment.
At that moment, even if it were terrible, she would still call it delicious.
The jealousy was so thick it could sour anything, so a little appeasement was in order.
But no lie was told; indeed, it tasted quite good, with a unique flavor.
Corbin Crowley’s silver eyes softened a bit, and he deftly sliced another piece of the tender snow deer, cooking it similarly to seven-tenths and then freezing it, for her to eat.
Soren Phoenix, watching from the side, couldn’t help but interject, "Luna, my roasted meat isn’t that bad, right?"
Luna Sutton hadn’t even responded.
Corbin Crowley had already coldly cut in, "Terrible."
Soren Phoenix: "..."
Zeke Veridian calmly added, "Indeed, it’s terrible."
Malachi Arcanus, having long finished his piece of roasted meat, casually wiped his mouth, "I think it’s okay..."
Mael Valerius twitched his mouth, silently sympathizing with his cousin, but he scolded, "Serves you right."
Rhys Blackwood, unnoticed, had stood behind Luna Sutton, gently resting a fingertip on her shoulder as he suddenly reminded her, "Luna, it’s time to rest."
Kian Sterling timely said, "It’s getting late, and we have to continue mining tomorrow, so let’s get some sleep early."
Luna Sutton nodded, heading into the makeshift tent to rest, where the floor was laid with animal pelts.
After last night’s commotion and an afternoon of rolling about with Soren Phoenix at the hillside,
No one bothered her tonight, as the seven men took turns keeping watch.
That night, she slept exceptionally well.
Knowing she was there, the Beast Husbands all tactfully kept away from the tent, careful not to disturb her rest.
Of course, another important reason was that she was currently in heat, her body emitting a sweet, captivating scent that mesmerized them.
To avoid doing anything rash, they kept as far away as possible.
At dawn, Aerock was shrouded in a thin mist.
Luna Sutton was awakened by the clatter of minerals, lifting the animal pelt from her tent to see Rhys Blackwood loading a basket of malachite onto a vine rack.
"So early?"
Rubbing her bleary eyes, she walked over.
Rhys Blackwood’s shoulder muscles rippled with his movements, not even raising his head at her words, "There’s a fault east of the red iron ore vein."
Dust from the black snake-hide clothing couldn’t mask the cold presence he radiated.
Corbin Crowley suddenly emerged from the fog, his silver eyes scanning Rhys Blackwood, "We should start excavating the blue copper ore found on the mountaintop today; it’s good stuff."
With that, he handed Luna Sutton a steaming cup of broth.
Luna Sutton took it in her hand, finding it was snow deer soup, sprinkled with some mushrooms and spring onions, giving off a rather appetizing aroma.
She hadn’t had breakfast, so she casually started drinking the soup.
Mael Valerius suddenly showed up, carrying a blood-soaked bald eagle in his hand.
He tossed the bald eagle to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.
Luna Sutton swallowed a mouthful of soup, her brow slightly furrowed as she stared at the half-dead bald eagle on the ground, "A spy from The Eagle Tribe?"
Mael Valerius gave a slight nudge with his foot, his dark gold eyes flashing coldly, "It was hovering stealthily all night, I knocked it out with a swipe of my tail."
"The Eagle Tribe must have noticed our mining operations but didn’t understand the ore’s purpose, so they sent a Beastman to investigate. They’re signing their own death warrant."
Malachi Arcanus said with a face full of cold disdain.
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly drew the bone knife from his waist, ready to deal with the bald eagle.
"Hold on."
Rhys Blackwood reached out to stop him, his voice indifferent, "Keep it for questioning."
The bald eagle suddenly transformed into human form, a scrawny Beastman with a pointed mouth and sunken cheeks, his right wing visibly fractured, blood steadily seeping out.
