Help! The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama!

Chapter 524: Chapter 502: Escaping Over the Wall

Necro looked at the confused face of the young female in front of him, words on the tip of his tongue, yet he swallowed them back.

The Blood Clan had a swift and effective method to recover from injuries—

That was to kill and drink fresh blood.

Especially, the blood of close relatives or loved ones was the best!

In the past, Necro was always unscrupulous about this. But this time, for some reason, he didn’t want her to know, and he didn’t want her to see his brutal and bloodthirsty side.

Otherwise, wouldn’t this young female be even more afraid of him?

Her courage waxed and waned, sometimes shockingly reckless, yet at other times timid like a rabbit.

Shen Tang saw that Necro hesitated and wisely stopped questioning, as if she had only mentioned it casually, bowing her head to concentrate on tending to his gaping wound.

Once finished with the bandaging, Necro stood up and stretched his muscles, somewhat satisfied with her handiwork.

He smirked, ”I thought you might take advantage of my weakness to kill me.”

”...” Truthfully, Shen Tang almost couldn’t resist, but with the system task at hand, Necro still had his uses for her, and it would be too much of a waste to kill him now.

Seeing her at a loss for words, Necro’s smile deepened, ”Looks like you can’t bear to kill me.”

”...” Shen Tang rolled her eyes hard in her mind, and when she looked up again, her beautiful eyes were misty, flustered, and annoyed as she retorted, ”I do not! I just can’t stand to see others injured... Besides, would it even work to attack? I can’t even beat you, so why seek my own doom.”

She muttered angrily under her breath, with a hint of grievance, ”This despicable, shameless villain... better not let me get the chance, or I’ll definitely kill him...”

The light complaint was perhaps unheard by ordinary people, but Necro, being so close and a High-level Beastman, heard it loud and clear.

He let out a light snort.

What a reckless and foolish young female—it’s one thing to curse him to his face, but to secretly plan to kill him?

If it were someone else, they might have died countless times by now.

Yet, strangely, Necro wasn’t angry at all.

Looking at the embarrassed and helpless young female in front of him, he found her naivety and charm... foolishly kind of cute, making his heart race even more intensely.

—Daring to enter the enemy camp alone to save unrelated captives, clearly hating him yet stubbornly bandaging him, even though family and nation were adversaries strewn with deep-seated hatred, she ultimately couldn’t deal a ruthless blow, truly both kind and conflicted.

Ha.

He had lived so many years, yet this was the first time he’d encountered someone like her.

Truly different, standing out from the crowd.

He liked it.

If Shen Tang could hear his inner thoughts, she would definitely gripe that this dog system’s ”Love at First Sight Spray” was outrageously effective, truly lovers seeing beauty in each other!

From a distance, the sound of artillery fire gradually rose, and Necro’s expression stiffened as he swiftly pulled Shen Tang into his arms, his tone leaving no room for argument, ”A great battle is about to break out here, a female like you should not stay here, come with me.”

Shen Tang also heard the commotion outside, her eyes widening with fear, ”You, you’re taking me where?”

Necro said, ”Naturally back to the palace! That’s the only place really in the control of the rebel army, without worry of outside threats.”

Shen Tang thought to herself that her army was already closing in, who would want to run to the rebel army’s base far away with him?

She struggled desperately, lowering her head to bite his shoulder hard, ”Let me down! I’m not leaving, this is my home!”

The more the female resisted, the more it aroused the male’s possessiveness! Necro felt the slight pain on his shoulder, which was nothing for a Beastman like him who had fought for years, instead seeming like an unusual... flirtation.

The man’s gaze grew deeper, his pupils shimmering with a fervent red, yet his tone was especially indulgent, ”Xiao Cui Hua, be good, don’t be stubborn, it’s too dangerous here, I’m doing this for your own good.”

Shen Tang was so stirred by this strange, gentle appellation that she shuddered all over, momentarily forgetting to struggle.

Necro assumed she was scared by the artillery, soothingly patting her hair, and then quickly took her away from the military camp.

...

Lu Xiao and his forces invaded the rebel army’s camp, capturing prisoners for interrogation, and finally located where Necro usually stayed.

However, the tent was long deserted, with no clue as to where they had gone.

After prolonged fierce fighting, Lu Xiao, Xue Yinzhou, and Xiao Jin were all battered and bruised, their clothes splattered with blood, but the real pain was not in their bodies, but in their hearts.

They had almost turned the rebel camp upside down but still couldn’t find any trace of Shen Tang.

If she wasn’t in the Empire camp or the enemy camp, where could she be?

Could it be... she was captured?!

”Tangtang had definitely been here, I can smell a trace of her lingering scent...” Xiao Jin sniffed desperately at the air, then began to frantically search amidst the rubble of the bombed-out camp, his claws nearly worn to the bone.

Finally, beneath some stones and tent remnants, he uncovered a shattered Jade Bracelet.

Xiao Jin’s blood froze in an instant.

He reverted to human form, trembling as he cradled the broken bracelet in his hands.

He knew full well—this was a gift he gave Shen Tang on her birthday!

She loved this bracelet dearly, always wearing it on her right wrist, never taking it off, not even to sleep...

She really was taken into the enemy camp.

Now it seemed she had been moved elsewhere.

If the rebel army knew her true identity, they wouldn’t kill her easily, very likely taking her as a bargaining chip. She was probably taken directly by Necro... could it be she was already taken to the rebel army’s base?

The Beast Husbands were almost driven mad, launching a massacre, leading the army to crush the rebel army’s control in the area.

After clearing out the remnants of the rebel army, they immediately pursued them.

They had a map of the rebel army’s lair in their hands—the rebels were entrenched in the area further north of Valencia, controlling a vast territory that was about the size of an Empire, thousands of miles away from here, and set up multiple checkpoints. To forcefully break through would be a life-threatening endeavor.

...

At this time, within the headquarters of the rebel army, there was a space ability Teleportation Array.

Necro directly took Shen Tang back to the lair.

Shen Tang was shocked. The Space Transmission Array could only be created and used by Beastmen with space abilities. Could it be that Necro also had space abilities?

Among the three commanders of the rebel army, two actually possessed space abilities. Isn’t that defying the natural order?

The system prompted, [Host, is there a possibility that Zaxxis’ space ability was actually given to him by Necro?]

”What do you mean?”

[I studied a lot of Blood Clan materials these days. The Blood Clan can assimilate others. It’s highly likely that Zaxxis was a Blood Clan member cultivated by Necro, and Necro transferred part of his abilities to him.]

Shen Tang suddenly realized, ”No wonder that lizard was so powerful, always exuding a gloomy and bloodthirsty aura... Now that I think about it, it does seem identical to Necro.”

After bringing Shen Tang into the palace, Necro hurriedly left due to his worsening injuries.

Shen Tang had an intuition that his hasty departure was probably related to the secrets of the Blood Clan.

She wanted to find a chance to follow, but Necro was adamant and refused to take her with him.

Even under the influence of the spray, this decision could not be swayed.

Fearing her identity might be exposed, Shen Tang had to act cautiously and decided to wait and see.

She rummaged through the palace for a long time but found no clues related to the secrets of the Blood Clan.

Late at night, she sat on top of the high palace wall, staring into the distance, deep in thought: Should she run or not?

She never expected to be directly brought back to the rebel army’s lair.

The original plan was to kill Shen Qingli and then leave, but who knew the dogged system would issue a special mission with such rich rewards that it was regrettable to just leave.

After so long, Xue Yinzhou and the others must have realized she was missing and were undoubtedly frantic.

Should she let them know she’s safe first?

But if her Beast Husbands knew she was in the enemy’s lair, they would surely go completely mad, complicating the situation.

Since Necro hasn’t returned yet, and it’s uncertain when he’ll finish his business... maybe she should return once first!

Just as she made up her mind, she suddenly heard footsteps not far away.

”Look quickly! There’s someone on the wall!”

”Go check it out! Could it be a spy?”

”Huh? It’s a beautiful little female~ Sister, what are you doing up there? Can’t come down, can you? Want your brother to help you?”

”The night is dark and chilly, but brother’s arms are warm, hot anywhere~ Want us to warm you up, relieve the deep night’s loneliness?”

”Brother’s embrace is big and warm, it’ll surely satisfy you...”

”Hahahahaha...”

A team of night patrol guards approached, leering at her with obscene gazes and bursting into raucous laughter.

Necro had left soon after bringing Shen Tang back, and most of the rebel army did not know her identity, assuming she was just an ordinary female of the palace.

Most of these females serving in the palace were defeated captives with very low status, akin to female slaves and often served as objects of amusement for these rebel males.

Shen Tang glanced at them lightly and said calmly, ”I was brought back by your leader. Aren’t you afraid he’ll kill you for speaking such filthy words to me?”

The Beastmen’s faces changed slightly.

Then an older Beastman sneered disdainfully, ”You’re just a plaything. Do you really consider yourself a master? Someone like you, the leader will get tired of in a couple of days. Come to us sooner, and you can live a few more days!”

”The leader hates disobedient females the most. A captive still dares to escape? There’s only one path—death! You might as well let the brothers enjoy before you die!”

The guards laughed wildly, even more piercing than the night wind.

Shen Tang’s gaze became even colder.

Two Beastmen couldn’t control themselves and rushed forward to grab her, but with a flick of her hand, an invisible blade flashed!

Two heads instantly rolled to the ground, thudding like balls.

”Ah! Murder!”

The air went deathly still for a moment, then the patrol squad let out terrified screams.

Shen Tang didn’t give them a chance to escape or beg for mercy. She settled them all in a few moves.

These sinners were a waste of air while alive; better to clean them up early, to prevent them from harming more people.

She clapped her hands, quite pleased, but then caught a glimpse of a shadow from the corner of her eye.

Her face changed abruptly, and she instinctively dodged backward, forgetting that she was sitting on a high wall, and fell off completely.

”Ah!”

The anticipated pain never arrived; instead, she was caught securely by a man who dashed over in a flash.

Necro looked down at the female in his arms, who was attempting to escape by climbing the wall, frowning,

”How can you be so foolish?”
