The pampered life of a woman in the beast world's paradise
Chapter 215 Escape and Wait
However, just as they were about to approach the edge of the city wall and thought they were about to escape successfully, a burst of hurried footsteps suddenly came from not far away, breaking the tranquility of the night. The three of them were startled and immediately stood back to back, their eyes sharp, alertly looking around.
"It's a patrol!" Lin Ye lowered his voice, "Let's go through the side door. There are relatively fewer guards over there, and it leads directly to the backyard, so we can use the trees for cover."
The three of them immediately took action, turning quickly like three ghosts and rushing towards the side door. Fortunately, the patrol team did not seem to find their traces, but just passed by in a hurry and continued their patrol mission.
Passing through the side door, they finally arrived at the backyard of the city lord's mansion. Under the moonlight, a dense forest came into view, providing a natural cover for their escape. The three of them worked together, using the gaps between the trees to quietly climb over the city wall, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"We are free temporarily! We must escape from Wanshou City before the City Lord's Mansion finds out that we are gone." Linye said in a low voice, his excitement barely concealed in his tone.
They passed through several narrow and dark alleys. The old houses on both sides of the street looked like sleeping beasts. Only the occasional sound of the night wind and the night watchman's beating in the distance broke the silence.
Linye lowered his voice and said to the two people beside him, "We have to speed up. If the people in the City Lord's Mansion find out that we are missing, they will soon impose martial law throughout the city. We don't have much time."
Although the three were low-level orcs, they were very familiar with the City of Beasts, especially some remote places with few patrols.
They chose to walk in places with few people, and were very cautious along the way. They were not only afraid of encountering people from the City Lord's Mansion looking for them, but also afraid of encountering orcs who knew them. They were afraid that those orcs would reveal their whereabouts without knowing it.
But they don't have time to explain anything to others at this moment.
Fortunately, the three of them were all strong and naturally fast. Soon they arrived at the city wall. Because they didn't dare to go directly through the gate, they could only climb over the wall.
At dawn, the first rays of morning light in the sky gently brushed across the earth like a veil, casting a soft glow on the edge of the deep forest.
Linye and the other two breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they entered the forest, they would be safe. But they were afraid that they would never be able to enter the City of Beasts again. They didn't know what title the city lord would give them today.
No matter what, saving life is the most important thing now. As for exposing Guoguo? What a joke, not to mention that the City Lord's Mansion and the various noble families are in the same boat. Even if Guoguo is a female, especially a female of noble status, who would offend her and the forces behind her because of three ordinary low-level orcs?
Linye and the other two walked into the forest without looking back. They might live in this forest for a long time, or even their whole life.
In the cave on the other side, the dim light could only barely outline Fang Qi's resolute outline. He clung to the cold stone wall, breathing slowly and evenly, as if blending in with the quiet environment around him. The air was filled with a repressive and tense atmosphere, and occasionally one could hear the low roar of the Megalodon in pain in the distance. The sound echoed in the empty cave, adding a bit of ominousness.
As time went by, Fang Qi kept his eyes fixed on the direction of the Megalodon. Although it was covered by a thick shadow, he could sense the gradual loss of the Megalodon's vitality with his keen intuition and years of hunting experience. This was a battle of patience and will. Fang Qi knew that if he showed any flaw, he might become the target of the Megalodon's counterattack before it died.
As the roar of the giant beast became weaker and weaker, until it finally disappeared completely, the cave fell into a dead silence. Fang Qi did not act immediately, but continued to remain highly alert and waited for a moment to make sure that the giant beast really had no movement. He slowly stood up and stretched his body, which was stiff from maintaining the same posture for a long time, with a determined light flashing in his eyes.
Fang Qi walked cautiously towards the location of the Megalodon. When he arrived beside the Megalodon, the scene in front of him made him gasp.
The body of the Megalodon cub lay on the ground, its head tilted to one side, its eyes closed, and it no longer had the ferocity it once had. Because it died of illness, its fur was very intact. Of course, if you want to get this fur, you must first get its teeth. Only the Megalodon's teeth can break its skin.
Fang Qi began to work on the Megalodon's corpse. He first pried open its mouth, and then used his hand as a sharp blade to pull out a 20-centimeter-long tooth bit by bit. Although it was much smaller than the teeth of an adult Megalodon, its sharpness was not to be underestimated.
Now, with this tooth, the subsequent dissection work will be much easier.
Almost every powerful beastman in the beast world is a very professional anatomist. They are familiar with the body structure of almost all beasts and know which parts of their meat are edible, delicious, and most suitable to eat.
Fang Qi first carefully skinned the giant giant cub. The skin was enough for him to make a full-body defensive robe for himself.
Later, he took out every tooth in its mouth and arranged them. He found that Megalodon had only twelve teeth, six of which were very sharp and could be used as daggers. The remaining six teeth needed to be polished.
He knocked on its skull and found that it was as hard as teeth. It seemed that this was also a treasure.
Soon, the Megalodon was cut up, the skeleton and flesh were separated, and Fang Qi also knew the real cause of its death.
Its flesh and blood were different from normal ones, dark red in color, and clearly showed signs of disease. This forced Fang Qi to abandon them, leaving only bones and hides.
This is the spoils I got after waiting for many days and staying up all night.
He packed up his things and buried them as he left the cave. It was better for the obviously diseased flesh to rest in the ground.
When we came out of the cave, it was already bright outside. The sunlight shone through the trees, and the air became fresher.
Fang Qi knew that he should go back to Wanshou City. Today he would definitely be the most eye-catching person.
With excitement and excitement, he took out only the smallest Megalodon tooth and wrapped one end with animal skin, ready to give it to Guoguo as a self-defense dagger. He found a place only he knew to hide the others.
Fang Qi touched the dagger, then the wreath he had just taken, with a happy smile on his face, and headed towards the direction of the City of Beasts.
