Chapter 323: The Fickle Kochas
Once you are pulled into the vortex, how can you not be interested in survival?
Ye Luoxing's expression changed. She stared coldly at the first beast: "What do you mean?"
In response to her questioning, Kochas smiled apologetically, as if he had just passed over the topic.
He suddenly changed the subject and said, "Female Ye Luoxing, I remember that there were a few male orcs guarding the arena in the center of your city all day long. Are you on good terms with them? I heard from Tabor that they were orcs without identity totems, and you helped them enter the city. It seems that you knew each other before entering Midnight City..."
He kept talking and talking, and Ye Luoxing looked over at Tabo. When Tabo saw her looking at him, he quietly avoided her gaze, as if he couldn't look her in the eye. Ye Luoxing's heart slowly sank. It seemed that the bloody killings before were really aimed at her...
She looked back at the first person in power and said with a smile, "Didn't you say at the beginning that I came here 'alone'?"
She has no relatives or friends in the animal world and lives alone. What can they use to threaten her? She won't fall for it.
Kochas half-lowered his eyes: "It's a bit dangerous for a female to act alone. After all, many females have disappeared recently..."
She still curled her lips: "I won't disappear."
Her simple words met her starry eyes and he laughed. She was right. She would not disappear...
Time seemed to stand still, completely silent. In the boundless silence, only the heartbeat continued as usual.
"You are not from the South, are you?" Suddenly, a familiar voice came from her right. Fei Xu raised his dark brown eyes again, staring at her quietly, seeing through her heart.
This time, although Ye Luoxing was frightened, he kept his expression steady. This group of beasts were like the beasts of Hell.
Feixu narrated calmly: "I travel back and forth between the north and south every year. You don't look like a beast from the south."
Their tone became more dangerous, but they did not tear each other apart. Feixu sat on the stone chair and said, "Female Ye Luoxing, the group of beasts you took in are most likely nobles from the west. You took them in in the stone house where females choose mates, which is equivalent to helping them hide their tracks, which may put Polar Night City in danger."
"How could you say before that you had never harmed anyone?" Fei Xu brought back the previous topic, raised her eyebrows and asked a question, as if pressing her step by step.
Ye Luoxing turned to him and said, "They have been in the city for so long, but you haven't noticed them. If I hadn't told you, you probably wouldn't have noticed that such a group of orcs had entered the city, right?"
She didn't belong to any of their factions. Even if she was temporarily staying in the Northern Beast City, which was wrong, it was definitely not a reason for them to threaten her to do something else.
Kochas heard her conversation with Feixu end so quickly, and she was more eloquent than he had imagined.
Kochas murmured to himself: "This is troublesome, I can't help it..." do something.
The figure reflected in her pupils completely "wrapped" herself. She was alert, careful, smart, and strong. It seemed that there was no flaw at all. She sat there steadily. Only, at that time...
"We were just joking with you." Kochas smiled kindly, as if the tense atmosphere just now was fake.
He slowly stood up from the stone chair, and walked towards Ye Luoxing with his long straight legs...
He was less than ten meters away from her. Seeing that the orc had made a move, Ye Luoxing could not help but be alert. Yue Shang also felt worried: "What does he want to do? Captain Ye, you have to be careful..."
Kochas moved, and Tabor and Sova's hearts followed suit. Every time he took a step, their heartbeats would speed up. The other orcs all had micro-expressions. Feixu pursed her lips, and they turned to her. All the micro-expressions were signs of nervousness...
As Kochas got closer, Ye Luoxing wanted to get away from his chair.
When he was only two meters away from her, he spoke: "If you are willing to stay in the inner city, you can put forward any conditions!"
Was he confronting her? Was he negotiating with her? Ye Luoxing saw him stop half a meter in front of her.
He did not come any closer, although the distance between them was not far. He looked at her seriously and sincerely, waiting for her answer. The unfriendly aura around him completely dissipated, and he looked so polite and kind.
Ye Luoxing was in a daze. How could there be such a fickle orc? He changed his expression faster than turning the pages of a book, making it difficult to tell which page was the real him.
"If you really don't want to, then forget it." He didn't wait for her answer, and his sudden words surprised Ye Luoxing. He took a step sideways, as if he was about to turn around and leave.
Kochas gazed at her beautiful face and sniffed her scent from close range. She had a high star rank, a high level, a beautiful face, a pleasant voice, a pleasant smell, a smart mind, good speaking skills, caution and ease of handling things. Kochas dared to bet that there would be no other orcs like her in the entire beast world. Yes, not just among female beasts.
——And she happens to be a rare female.
She was perfect, just like when he first saw her today. He couldn't find any flaws in her, at least that was the case now. Not only was he sure, but all the beastmen in the cave were sure that after a brief contact, they could discover more than just her beauty and strength. This kind of female...
How could Kochas let it go! When Kochas turned sideways, Tabor and Feixu suddenly looked cold!
Sure enough, just as Ye Luoxing was about to relax, the male beast, which had clearly turned sideways and was about to leave, suddenly turned back. His speed was so fast that Ye Luoxing could not catch him at all. When she reacted again, he had already appeared in front of her. Yes, very, very close...
He placed his hands on the handles on both sides of her stone chair. The moment she reacted, he leaned close to her ear and whispered in his magnetic and hoarse voice, "You want me to say that, right?"
His hands just happened to hold down her hands, easily preventing her from escaping. He glanced sideways, and now he was staring into those surprised black pupils at a close distance. He was almost attracted at first sight. Even for him, Kochas, when he was close to her, his heartbeat speed was out of control, getting faster and faster...
As if it was about to jump out of my chest...
"Ye Luoxing." He continued to whisper in her ear, and the hot air he exhaled sprayed all over her ears, making her ears numb and itchy as if ants were crawling over them. He whispered, "You want me to let you go? How is that possible?"
How could he not see what she was thinking? She wanted to escape unscathed, but that would result in the separation of flesh and blood.
Tabor, Feixu and the others were not surprised at all. Most of the orcs in the city didn't know what kind of orc Kochas was, but they were the only ones who knew it clearly.
As she lifted her foot, Kochas added in a very low voice, "How is my brother Yan Beast?"
Ye Luoxing froze, her face suddenly changed, and Kochas pressed his leg against her knee.
His laughter was pleasant and dangerous. "From the moment you came in, I realized that you must know him. Were you captured by him and brought to the North? Did he touch you? Did he force you to mate with him?"
He looked her up and down. He could not see if she had any mate marks on her body. He could not smell any scent of male beasts from her. Krolin definitely did not have a normal mate with her, and Kochas could also be sure...
He smiled and lowered his voice: "In my opinion, he hasn't. My brother really hasn't made any progress yet."
He was certain that Clorin had never forced himself on her, and this was a strong feeling of blood kinship.
His eyes turned cold, and his voice was also cold: "He doesn't dare, how dare he offend a female like you, but - I dare."
As soon as he finished speaking, a smile spread across Kochas' face again. Just as Feixu and Tabor knew Kochas very well, Kochas also knew Krollin. Although his younger brother had some problems with his brain and was a little crazy, but... he was still lacking in many things.
"Today, many orcs watched me enter the inner city." Ye Luoxing knew that she could not beat him, and this was his territory. She did not panic, but slowly regained her composure and said this to him rationally.
Kochas's smooth white hair fell on her chest. His handsome face looked scary when he smiled, which made people feel cold. He said slowly, "I won't let you disappear."
"Even if I break an arm or a leg, it won't work. How can you expect me to help you achieve your goal?" Ye Luoxing raised her eyebrows and smiled back. She naturally knew that he would not kill her. He was an elder, and this was the Beast City. The orcs watched her enter the inner city.
Kochas' eyes were filled with joy. "You are so smart that I am a little uncomfortable with you. I have to change the way we communicate with you. But don't worry, even if it is the means you mentioned, I can't bear to use them on you~"
"Then you might as well explain it more clearly." Ye Luoxing said coldly.
Kochas propped himself up, looked her in the eye and said, "I told you before that you can ask for any conditions you want. I can help you accomplish many things, such as - I can help you kill Krolin."
"?" Yueshang put a question mark in Ye Luoxing's mind. These two brothers must have something wrong with their brains. They must have some problems. How did Captain Ye happen to encounter such a rare lunatic?
"The group of Yama beasts outside the city are lingering because of you, right?" Kochas couldn't figure it out before, but now he understands.
Ye Luoxing learned the news about the Yan beast group from him, but she did not respond.
Kochas continued to throw out his bait: "No matter where you are from, you must have suffered some injustice after being caught by the Yan Beasts. With them guarding outside the city, it will not be so easy for you to leave Polar Night City. I can help you get rid of them. Compared to a Yan Beast that does all kinds of evil, my identity and the environment of Polar Night City can at least make you feel more at ease."
The identity of the elder of Jieye City is definitely stronger than that of the Yan Beast. At least she won’t suffer as much as she did in the Yan Beast group.
Ye Luoxing laughed sarcastically: "What does your brother's conflict have to do with me? What does it have to do with me whether you kill him or not? As for whether everything goes well for me after I leave Polar Night City, that is not something you should worry about."
Ye Luoxing thought his words were ridiculous. She didn't like the Yan beasts, but why would she sacrifice her freedom to kill a group of Yan beasts? The benefits to her were almost negligible. She was not an orc from the Beast World, and she didn't think about executing Krolin and the others.
Although her sarcasm made him lower his eyes slightly, he was not angry. He just stared into her eyes.
Ye Luoxing stared at him for a few seconds, but suddenly smiled and changed her mind. She said clearly: "We can cooperate. I just don't like being threatened by orcs. As long as you don't reveal my identity as a seventh-level male beast for the time being and let me continue the competition, I can move into the inner city tomorrow."
Ye Luoxing stated her conditions, took the initiative, and looked at him leisurely.
Seeing her change of attitude, Kochas' eyelids half sank and his lips closed. He didn't know whether he was surprised or thinking. He had been insisting with her for a long time, and now Tabor, Feixu and others heard clearly what Ye Luoxing said.
When they saw her relax, they also breathed a sigh of relief...
Just at this moment, Kochas laughed after thinking for a while. He stood up and slowly walked towards her. Ye Luoxing's body did not relax. She noticed from the corner of her eye that he stopped beside her.
He put one hand on her shoulder, exerting some force. The next words he said were not to her, but to Biller and the others: "Biller, wasn't your last bet accidentally interrupted? It is unbearable to let the prey escape from your hands. Go and get your prey back!"
The meaning of Kochas' words was very clear. Biller was stunned for a moment, then nodded in understanding.
He stood up and responded, "I understand."
Kochas felt Anzhu's body stiffen. He chuckled and added, "Feixu, you go too."
Feixu glanced at Ye Luoxing. When Kochas said this, he understood that this female was lying. She wanted to deceive them and escape from the Beast City today. They were almost deceived by her, but she could never deceive Kochas.
Fei Xu didn't say a word and stood up with Biller. The two male beasts walked straight out of the cave.
Ye Luoxing remained silent. This orc was too perceptive.
Kochas's playful voice with a smile has already sounded: "You said you came to Beast City 'alone'. I really want to know if you really don't care about anything. After all, some things can only be known after they have been done, right?"
"..." Yueshang was even more frightened than Ye Luoxing. The eyes of this eagle beast were more than just sharp on the surface.
It is truly a Hongmen Banquet, and Midnight City is not safe either.
Feixu and Biller had already left the cave. Ye Luoxing sat in the depressing cave. She glanced at Tabor and Sova. They were completely silent. They wanted to say something but didn't. Especially when they saw Ye Luoxing looking at them, their hearts slowly sank...
Ye Luoxing didn't say anything. She was waiting, but no one knew what she was waiting for...
Time passed, but the next incident caught all the orcs present off guard.
They didn't expect it, and Ye Luoxing didn't expect it either.
Only the sound of footsteps was heard outside the cave, and three figures slowly walked from the sunlight outside the cave into the firelight inside the cave.
They walked into the dim cave carrying the most blazing colors, as dazzling as when Ye Luoxing took off the hood of his cloak, fiery red and orange-red. The orc in the center was wearing a long black wolf-hair cloak, with his soft red hair casually scattered, forming the most striking contrast. He had a powerful and restrained aura, as if he came from a painting and walked into the dust.
Behind him, two male beasts had their long orange-red hair tied casually behind their heads and shoulders, both wearing white plush cloaks. One had a serious and indifferent expression; the other had a smile on his lips and deep eyes. They locked onto the scene in front of them, and quickly locked onto the female who was sitting on the stone chair with her back to them, even though only a little of her figure was exposed.
