The pampered life of a woman in the beast world's paradise

Chapter 214: Escape from the City Lord's Mansion

"I hope Fang Qi will come back and notice something is wrong and rescue us all." One of them said with some anticipation.

"It's better to rely on yourself than on others. Who knows if Fang Qi will be tricked like us by then." Lin Ye's words made the other two people wilted instantly.

"Ask yourself? We can't even beat the fifth-level orcs guarding the yard now, how can we save ourselves? If asking yourself for help would be useful, would they still look half-dead?" One of them said, pointing at the orcs who had been tortured just now.

Those people seemed to be still alive, but there was no light in their eyes at all, and it seemed that they might die at any time.

Linye knew that those people had completely lost their will to live, and might even be eager to be freed as soon as possible. But he was different from them, and he touched the small bottle in his arms.

"I have a way to remove the poison that has sealed our strength." Lin Ye said slowly.

If he wants to get out of the City Lord's Mansion alive, he needs allies, and these two are the best choices.

"What did you say? Do you really have a solution?" One of the thin and taciturn beastmen spoke excitedly. He seemed to realize something and lowered his voice.

The other one was the sturdy orc who had been talking before. He also looked at Linye with hope, expecting that what he said was true.

Seeing Lin Ye nod, the thin man pulled him and said anxiously, "Then hurry up, as long as the seal on strength is lifted, it will be a piece of cake for the three of us to leave the City Lord's Mansion."

"No hurry, just listen to me first."

Zhuangshidian interrupted, "How can we not be urgent? This is a matter of life and death! We must escape before dawn, otherwise we will be caught even if we recover our strength. It will be difficult to escape then."

Of course, Lin Ye knew the interests involved, but he still explained, "My method is to fight poison with poison. My friend once gave me a bottle of poison he prepared himself. After being poisoned, no other poison will have any effect on it."

"Poison?" The two were stunned for a moment, and the stronger orc asked, "What are the consequences of being poisoned by your poison? Do you have an antidote?"

"I don't have an antidote. This poison was given to me by my friend to save my life. But he didn't want to poison others directly, so after being poisoned, you won't die, but you will immediately enter a weak state that lasts for ten breaths. This is enough time for me to fight back."

The two waved their hands after hearing this, "We are only weak for ten breaths. Aren't we actually in a weak state now? Or will we continue to be weak?"

"Ahem ~ I was weak for ten breaths at that time. If the poison is not detoxified, I will be weak for ten breaths at irregular intervals every month. This is the most fatal thing." Lin Ye went on to explain.

Irregular weakness for ten breaths! The two beasts shuddered after hearing this. If they suddenly became weak for ten breaths while hunting in the wild, it would be fatal!

The three of them fell silent. Linye was waiting for the two's response. If they were unwilling, he would fight alone.

"Then how can we detoxify?" asked the thin man.

"My friend only saved my life at the time and never thought of using it on myself, so he didn't give me the antidote. If I want to detoxify, I can only find him himself. But I haven't seen him for a long time. His name is Shigu, a guy who is famous for his own poison that no one else can detoxify."

"Bone erosion? I have heard of it, but I didn't expect his poison to be so strong! But in the past two years, his name seems to have been gradually forgotten, and he seems to have disappeared into thin air."

Lin Ye was also a little puzzled by his friend's sudden disappearance, but he still replied, "I believe he will show up one day. So in this situation, whether you want to use my poison or not depends on your own choice."

The two thought for a while, and the stronger orc patted their shoulders and said, "Use it! If we don't, we will just wait to die here, and we will have to endure torture worse than death. If we use it, we won't necessarily die if we escape. The three of us can go hunting together, or bring our own friends. We can't be so unlucky that we will all become weak at the same time. As long as we pay more attention when hunting, the worst that can happen is that we will get injured. Even if we are really unlucky and die, it is fate. It is better than being tortured to death here bit by bit!"

The thinner orc also nodded in agreement. However, he also looked at the orcs lying over there, "Do you want to take them with you?"

Linye shook his head. "They should be able to hear our conversation, but do you think they are still reacting? They have already given up struggling. We can't take them away like this."

If any of them had a look in their eyes, indicating that they wanted to leave, Linye would have helped them. But they had been tortured to the point of giving up on themselves, and even when they heard about the opportunity to leave, they were indifferent, so there was no need to help them.

Linye took out a small bottle and dripped a drop of green liquid into everyone's palm. "As long as this poison comes into direct contact with the skin, it will take effect in a short time."

As soon as he finished speaking, the two men's bodies went limp and they lay down.

And Linye had just put the small bottle back when he also went limp.

The three mollusks looked at each other helplessly and smiled. Because of their weakness, the smiles looked a little strange, but they could all feel that they were sincere smiles, smiles of hope.

Ten breaths later, the three of them gradually recovered their strength. Their previously sealed strength also slowly returned to normal.

Although the three seventh-level warriors are not the top ones in the City Lord’s Mansion, as long as you are careful, escaping should not be a problem.

After all, even the city lord would not allow the strong men above level eight to participate in patrols. Most of them were treated as worshippers and lived in the place closest to the main courtyard.

The three of them exchanged glances, and the thinner orc quickly slipped out of the house, and took care of the gatekeeper before he noticed. After moving the body to a hidden place, the three of them began to carefully leave the remote yard and look for an escape route.

The night was falling, and the moonlight was thin, which cast a mysterious and tense veil over the escape of Linye and the other two. They clung to the corner of the wall, their steps were light and quick, and they tried not to make any noise with each step, for fear of alarming the patrolling guards in the city lord's mansion.

Lin Ye, the leader, had a determined look in his eyes. He turned back from time to time and signaled his two companions behind him to stay alert.

Passing through silent paths one after another, they cleverly avoided several sentries and tried to choose remote and less likely to be discovered paths. Whenever they came to a fork in the road, Linye would stop and gently touch the wall with his fingertips as a mark to avoid going back.
