Chapter 258 Lu Er is dead
Xia Yueke knew very well that the situation was extremely dangerous at the moment and that she would be badly hurt if she wasn't careful. She was panicked but pretended to be calm and instantly put on an innocent look.
She blinked her large eyes, full of panic and weakness, and looked at the lizard orc, saying anxiously:
"Boss, I really didn't think of running away. I was so scared just now that my mind went blank. Lu Xiaokui and I have such a good relationship. I am very open and honest with her, but I never thought that she would frame me and stab me in the back just to protect herself."
As she spoke, Xia Yueke's eyes became red and tears welled up in her eyes, sliding down her cheeks.
She turned to look at Lu Xiaokui, her face full of grievance. Her eyes were filled with disbelief after being betrayed, and deep helplessness.
The lizard orc looked at Xia Yueke, who was crying and looking pitiful. He was silent at first, staring at her face with a pair of eyes that were glowing with a faint light.
Then he stretched out his rough and scaly hand, slowly pinched Xia Yueke's chin, lifted her face up, and looked at her wantonly, as if he was examining a commodity waiting to be sold.
After a while, the lizard orc suddenly raised his head and laughed twice. The laughter sounded like the cry of a night owl, which made people feel creepy.
"Such a beautiful female, if I didn't have more important things to do right now, I really want to stay and have fun with her." After saying that, he suddenly let go of his hand, and Xia Yueke's chin was pinched so hard that it hurt.
"Take it away!" the lizard orc ordered fiercely. "Then trade it with the orcs in Wandering Valley. You'll definitely get a huge reward. It's definitely a huge fortune!"
When Xia Yueke heard the first two sentences, her heart trembled violently, and her heart instantly hung high in the air, as if it was about to jump out of her throat in the next second.
After hearing the rest of the words, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Wandering Valley? Although she didn't know where it was, if she had the chance, perhaps she could escape. As long as it wasn't now... Fear and a hint of hope surged in her heart as she thought of this.
When Lu Xiaokui heard the lizard orc's words, a flash of disappointment crossed her eyes.
The lizard beastman noticed her subtle change in mood, glanced at her, and said coldly: "I hate this kind of smart-aleck female the most!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the two stray orcs immediately understood and stepped forward like ferocious monsters. Their strong palms were accompanied by whistling sounds as they slapped Lu Xiaokui's face several times in succession.
In just a moment, Lu Xiaokui's cheeks swelled up. The other females saw this scene and trembled with fear.
Lu Xiaokui covered her face with her hands, tears mixed with saliva dripping uncontrollably, and she kept cursing:
"You disgusting bunch of wandering orcs will definitely be cursed by the Beast God! You will die a miserable death!"
However, the more she cursed, the more severe the beatings she received. The wandering orcs were like enraged beasts, each blow filled with malice.
Xia Yuke watched coldly from the side, hatred surging in her heart, and she wished she could kill Lu Xiaokui with her own hands right then and there.
But when she calmed down and thought about it, Lu Xiaokui's efforts had inadvertently helped her.
In the chaos just now, Xia Yueke saw the situation clearly: the leader of this wandering orc was as strong as level eight, and most of his subordinates were at level five or six, and each of them was much stronger than himself.
If you run away rashly, you will definitely fail and will most likely anger these brutal guys.
It seems that Lu Xiaokui's antics helped him realize the situation and avoid acting impulsively to his own death.
At this time, all the females lowered their heads in resignation, like lambs to be slaughtered.
The wandering orcs tied their hands tightly with vines and drove them to the corner of the platform like livestock.
"Quick, go down from where you just came up and go through that tunnel. Move quickly while those male beasts are still entangled!"
The rat orc screamed, greed and eagerness in his eyes.
Then, he glanced at Lu Er who was thrown into the corner, rubbed his hands, ran to the lizard orc with a flattering face, and asked:
"Boss, what should we do with that kid? Should we take him back? Or we can sell him as a slave to the orcs in Wandering Valley and get some benefits."
The lizard orc sneered, his eyes full of disdain: "We don't need to bring a piece of trash with us. It will take more than ten days to walk from here to Wandering Valley. Carrying him as a burden will only slow us down. Besides, I hate betrayers the most..."
When Lu Er heard this, he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar and realized that his time was up.
He completely ignored the severe pain from his broken arm, and knelt on the ground with a plop, kowtowed desperately to the lizard orc and begged for mercy:
"Boss Lizard, I've told you everything I know. You said you would let me live. Please have mercy on me, please forgive me, please forgive me..."
His forehead hit the ground hard, and soon the skin was broken. Blood slowly flowed down his cheek, but the lizard orc seemed to have not heard it, and there was no movement on his face.
The two stray orcs next to the lizard orc stretched out their claws as sharp as knives without any hesitation and slashed Lu Er's throat fiercely.
In an instant, blood spurted out like a fountain, spilling onto the platform, shocking to the eye.
When Lu Er was dying, his eyes were wide open, full of unwillingness and fear, and he looked straight into the distance.
Seeing this, Lu Xiaokui let out a shrill cry and rushed towards Lu Er's body without hesitation, crying as he ran, "Brother! Brother!"
Her voice was heartbreaking and full of endless despair, and she was obviously on the verge of collapse.
Running to Lu Er, Lu Xiaokui frantically shook his lifeless body, but it was all in vain.
After a long time, Lu Xiaokui slowly stood up and stared at Xia Yueke with a hateful and creepy look, as if she wanted to eat her alive, as if she believed that all these tragedies were caused by Xia Yueke.
When Xia Yueke saw this scene, his pupils suddenly constricted, his body couldn't help but tremble slightly, and he subconsciously clenched his fists.
She really didn't expect that Lu Er would lose his life so easily. The brutality of this group of stray orcs was far beyond her imagination.
It would be a lie to say that I wasn't upset. Xia Yueke never imagined that things would develop to this point.
She kept comforting herself in her heart: Lu Er has a bad character, but it is not her fault. She has tried her best and it has nothing to do with her.
After all, Xia Yueke had lived in a peaceful world since childhood and had never seen such a bloody and brutal scene.
She took a deep breath, tried to adjust her mentality, and brainwashed herself repeatedly in her heart. Finally, she mustered up the courage and slowly moved her eyes away from Lu Er's body.
