Cat Duoduo was unexpectedly snatched away by a wild animal.
The enormous beast moved extremely fast, giving the cat no chance to react.
She was mainly bitten on the arm, which was extremely painful, and she couldn't break free at all. With the attacker running wildly, she only had time to protect herself and prevent her injuries from worsening.
After a bumpy ride, Maoduo could only vaguely recall that there were about ten of these wild beasts, all carrying loads of spoils, and they passed out after a short while.
Waiting to wake up again, Maoduoduo was thrown heavily to the ground.
"It hurts!" She gritted her teeth, rubbing the bite mark on her right hand, and struggled to get up, only to find herself in a vast hall.
The hall clearly showed signs of orcish construction, and countless burly orcs, exuding an aura that instilled fear and unease in her, stood around, preventing her from acting rashly.
The orc sitting on the stone seat was staring intently at her.
CatDodo's heart skipped a beat as she saw four tattoo marks on the other's arm, a formidable presence that should not be underestimated.
The opponent's tail twitched, revealing its species: a scorpion beastman.
"grown ups."
Suddenly, the orc who had just thrown the cat on the ground spoke.
He easily pinned the cat, Duoduo, to the ground. Her face pressed against the cold floor, and she nearly screamed in pain.
The whimpering sounds coming from all around forced Dodo the cat to swallow its fear.
There were also many abducted orcs nearby, mostly females and cubs...
"This is the best-looking one we've caught during this operation, a special gift for you, sir." The orc, who had been quite smug just moments before, arrived here carrying the cat Duoduo, and smiled obsequiously.
The scorpion orc sitting on the stone seat got up, stepped down, and finally stopped in front of CatDodo.
He leaned down and pinched Mao Duoduo's face without any politeness, carefully examining Mao Duoduo's features.
CatDodo was actually in slight pain from the force of the grip. She instinctively tried to back away, but the grip tightened even more, making her feel as if her jaw was about to break. She didn't dare to cry easily and took the opportunity to take a closer look at her surroundings. Her mind was a little confused; where was she?
"Not bad, hahaha." The scorpion beastman laughed loudly, released CatDodo, and ordered his men to throw her into the prison, temporarily withholding her food and water.
"..." No way! Cat Duoduo's eyes widened in disbelief as she was being dragged away alive.
As she was about to leave, she caught a few words and, connecting them with the conversation between the beastmen who were guarding her and the prison she was subsequently thrown into, she was able to deduce some information.
She was captured and taken to the Rootless City in the heart of the desert. This place was inhabited by tribes of Rootless Beasts, making it an extremely dangerous area. The Rootless Beasts were inherently in a state of perpetual rage and madness, and the orc who managed to overpower many of them and sit in the position of city lord was Gigi. He was a scorpion orc with a level four beast mark, possessing immense strength, but also a rather notorious weakness: lust.
The Rootless Beast Clan frequently raided and plundered, replenishing their enslaved forces while also abducting many females to use as tools for raising offspring.
In Maoduoduo's words, these guys are nothing but pests that disrupt production and disturb her normal farming life.
If she wasn't mistaken, the village had likely suffered heavy losses during that raid, and it would be difficult to find anyone to rescue her in the short term...
Thinking about this, Maoduo felt listless and tried to conserve her energy by reducing her activity.
The orcs guarding her were very powerful, and she dared not underestimate them. She could only rely on the things in her space to eat and drink quickly during their shift changes to survive for the time being.
As for what the future holds, she still couldn't think of a solution.
"Is the city lord forbidding us from bringing food and drink to this female today?"
"Never mind her. Don't talk to her. If we get caught, we might get killed."
...
The sounds of the shift-taking orcs talking could be heard outside again.
Cat Duoduo pretended not to hear, rolled over, and then used her consciousness to open a space, silently grilling meat inside.
Waiting until they weren't paying attention, she would sneak in, eat and drink her fill, and then come out to continue thinking about the clues she had obtained and planning how to escape.
Damn it, she's been stuck here for two days now.
That city lord named Gigi is crazy. Does he think that by throwing her here, he can make her obedient?
If she could stay in the space for a long time, she really wanted to try hiding inside and teach those wretched rootless beasts a lesson.
As night fell, Maoduo gritted her teeth and used a stone to draw a tally mark on the wall. She didn't know how long she would be locked up here, so this was the only way she could remember the time.
As a result, on the third day, she was captured by the orcs, who said the city lord wanted to see her.
It's been three whole days since I last showered. I've been trying to take good care of myself, and I feel like I'm about to stink.
Gigi stared intently at her, then suddenly changed her expression and questioned the surrounding orcs, "Why does she look the same? Did you feed her?"
"No—" the orc quickly denied, afraid that Gigi would hold a grudge against him.
Cat Dodo shrank her neck. Okay, so this guy deliberately starved himself; he wanted to torment her. She was a little unhappy, but dared not show it.
The other party stared intently at Mao Duoduo, snorted coldly, and ordered the orc guards again: "Drag her away, and no one is allowed to help her!"
"yes!"
No way, here we go again!
CatDodo was dragged away again and thrown into the jail.
This time, she noticed that the number of orcs responsible for observing and monitoring her had increased.
Perhaps because she had spent a long time with the Galseron, she was more sensitive to the power of these powerful orcs. Sometimes, CatDodo could vaguely sense that there were orcs watching her from unseen places, paying attention to her every move.
CatDodo: "..." Damn, she's probably going to try hiding in her spatial dimension after all.
If she were a chemistry expert, she would have blown up the place and run away. But she's not.
Another day has passed.
The new monitoring results are reported.
Gigi, who was currently embracing a graceful female and enjoying delicious food, sneered upon hearing the result, "She won't beg for mercy, and she's not afraid of starving to death, is she?"
"What a joke, there's no way an orc could survive for days without food or water."
Gigi's face darkened with anger, and she exuded power as she threatened, "Continue the examination. Listen, don't let her get away with this."
