Surviving in the Beast World with a System-Chapter 213: Mutated Rats?

The Wolf King was taken completely by surprise, staring dumbfoundedly at his empty paws. AWOOO?

’What about the prey I worked so hard to snatch from the tiger’s jaws?’

Its four paws continuously pawed at the ground, searching for the rib meat it had gone to such lengths to catch.

But it didn’t realize that the very turf its giant claws were digging up had sealed the hole completely shut.

"AWOO!" With an annoyed low growl, the giant wolf turned and rejoined the battle against the Beastmen.

The moment Wu Yue fell, the expressions of the Snow Tiger and Black Wolf Beastmen changed drastically.

"Yue’s scent is gone."

Yuan Qi viciously swatted a Forest Wolf away and turned, growling, "Don’t waste time. Shake off these Forest Wolves and find Yue as fast as you can."

These Beastman Warriors knew better than anyone just how dangerous the forest was at night.

Meanwhile, Wu Yue was completely bewildered. The moment the ground caved in, she had plummeted straight down.

’Free-falling is easier said than done.’

Just as she was about to call on her system for some kind of protection, she fell into a broad, warm chest.

Still dazed, Wu Yue sniffed at the crisp scent that enveloped her. ’It’s so familiar!’

She slowly looked up, her neck so stiff she felt it could audibly go CREAK.

’Sure enough, that familiar, chiseled profile...’

’...those thin lips, slightly pursed in a pleased smile...’

’...and those passionate, smiling eyes...’

’It was Yuan Lang, no doubt about it...’

’So...’

"How are you here?" Wu Yue could hardly believe it. ’To fall into a pit and run into a tribesman... At a time like this, I just want the Beast God to give me a chance to go back for a minute and buy a lottery ticket first.’

Yuan Lang’s powerful arm wrapped lightly around her, and Wu Yue felt it tighten at her waist. She found herself clinging to the Beastman’s chest like a baby koala.

"Actually, I can walk on my own..."

’HOLY SHIT!!!’

The moment she looked down, Wu Yue wanted to let out a shocked, groundhog-like shriek.

Her expression stiff, she looked at the Beastman beside her. "So... were you just looking for a way out?"

She didn’t know where exactly in the cavern she was, but one thing was certain: looking down from here, she could only see two little mice scurrying back and forth.

The Beastman chuckled, and the vibration of his chest made her own body tremble slightly.

She involuntarily tightened her arms around Yuan Lang’s neck.

But she found herself looking right into the Beastman’s deep eyes and gave a dry laugh. "Uh, well, my hands got scared. I can’t control them."

Yuan Lang laughed inwardly, but his expression was perfectly serious. "Any female who touches me of her own volition gets... dealt with. Since you can’t control these arms, how about I help you out and deal with them for you?"

Wu Yue looked horrified. "Holy crap! Aren’t you a little bit cruel?"

"Cruel?" The Beastman put on an innocent face.

"Am I not helping you out?"

Wu Yue gave a sarcastic laugh. "Oh, thank you so much, but no thanks. I’ll just go teach them a lesson myself later."

’They say absence makes the heart grow fonder.’

’And what’s the result? You, Hu Zi, actually want to turn me into a cripple?’

"Boss, are you two not planning on coming down? Is it comfortable up there?"

Teng Qian’s voice suddenly came from below, startling Wu Yue.

Remembering the two giant rats she had seen earlier, her brow twitched. She quickly turned her head to shout down, "You two, be careful! I saw two enormous rats scurrying around down there earlier."

’They might be mutated!’
