Chapter 3: The Mad Beast
Just as they were discussing the possibility of pursuing Anita in the corridor, a mad roar like that of a wild beast suddenly sounded from upstairs.
The roar was deafening, accompanied by the continuous "bang bang bang" sound of walls being smashed. The entire dilapidated shelter shook violently, as if it would collapse at any time.
Everyone fell silent instantly, and everyone's face was filled with solemnity.
The Crown Prince they followed was betrayed by his colleagues while on a mission and was assassinated and seriously injured.
In order to avoid being hunted down, they fled all the way and finally found a chance to breathe on this abandoned garbage planet.
Now, a month has passed, and the condition of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has become increasingly critical, to the point where no time can be lost.
At this time, Lao Xia, who had just finished examining Anrita, hurried down from the second floor.
He looked flustered, his face was pale, and his forehead was covered with beads of cold sweat.
Running in front of the crowd, he shook his head helplessly and said to Charlie, "Charlie, I'm really sorry, your brother's life is probably in danger."
When everyone heard this, their faces changed drastically. A cold light suddenly flashed in Charlie's eyes. He stared at Lao Xia, his fists clenched and crackling, and his voice was icy and piercing: "Lao Xia, you know, he can't be in any way. You have to save him no matter what."
Old Xia sighed, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said helplessly, "Charlie, you know, when he first came, his out-of-control value was as high as 94, and now it's completely out of control, completely beast-like. In his current state, unless there is a high-level female to guide his mental power, there is no way to help him."
Lao Xia spread his hands and continued, "But this is an abandoned garbage planet. There's not even a female to be seen, let alone the lowest quality mental sedatives. Even if I wanted to save him, I couldn't do anything."
At this moment, Lao Xia didn't consider the recently rescued Anita. After all, Anita had just been pulled out of the river and was extremely weak. Moreover, her mental strength level was only D-level, which was too low to guide a completely out-of-control high-level male.
The faces of the five team members instantly became extremely gloomy.
Eugene said coldly, "The Inner City Lord Senna must have hidden high-level mental sedatives in his mansion. That guy colluded with pirates and amassed countless wealth, so he definitely has plenty of these things."
Edmund clenched his fists, his face anxious: "Charlie, let me go to the City Lord's Mansion and grab the soothing drug!"
For more than a month, they were being hunted and had to be extremely cautious. They patrolled several times a day and did not even dare to approach the inner city for fear of exposing their whereabouts.
Although they themselves are not afraid of danger, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has completely lost control and transformed into a beast, losing his human consciousness and is completely unable to cooperate with the evacuation. Once they encounter danger, the situation will be unimaginable.
Gar also agreed, "That's right, that Lord Senna is no pushover. I heard he's collaborating with pirates and buying females from the black market."
Old Xia was listening in on the side, feeling terrified. He couldn't help but interrupt, "That Senna City Lord did kidnap a female a few months ago, but that female had no mental power. Don't you know that best, Eugene?"
As he said this, he looked at Eugene.
Eugene's expression froze and he said nothing.
Eugene is tall and straight, with handsome features and a cool temperament. He has short white hair and deep ice-blue eyes. His animal form is a snow leopard with fair skin, which makes him very popular with females.
Previously, he had disguised himself as a wandering orc to go shopping in the inner city. He accidentally revealed his profile and was spotted by the female of Senna City Lord, who unexpectedly wanted him to be her mate. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and escaped in time, otherwise he would have been hunted down.
Eugene rubbed his temples and said in a cold tone, "That female has no spiritual power, but she is very favored, so it is very likely that she is the only female that Senna City Lord has at the moment."
Hearing this, the team members were a little disappointed.
Charlie was silent for a long time, then said to everyone, "Don't panic, everyone. I'll go to the inner city to see if I can buy some high-grade mental sedatives. I'll be back by tonight at the latest. Before that, don't act rashly. You must protect His Highness."
After saying that, he glanced at the door behind him and added, "And this little female."
After saying that, Charlie disguised himself carefully, put on a tattered cloak, a mask that covered his face, changed his eye color, and then hurried towards the inner city.
Others were waiting anxiously in the counseling center.
During this time, the roar of the beast on the second floor never stopped. They stood on the first floor, looked up at the second floor, and saw the wall peeling off with dust.
Lao Xia's face was filled with worry: "This diversion station is too dilapidated. If we continue to mess with it like this, it might collapse tomorrow."
Edmund and Gar were guarding outside the counseling center, while Eugene and the taciturn Valua were guarding Anrita's door.
The two of them looked quietly at the sleeping Anrita. Her fair and delicate face looked particularly charming in the dim light.
Eugene murmured softly, "If only Lady Anrita's spiritual power were higher, even at B-level, perhaps she could have saved His Highness." But Anrita's spiritual power was only D-level, far too low. Could it be that even if Heaven had sent this little female, His Highness would still be unable to escape his doom?
At dusk, Charlie finally returned from his outing. He looked exhausted and unsightly. Walking into the first-floor hall, listening to the painful roars of the beasts coming from the second floor, he said in a heavy voice, "We can't find any high-grade soothing agents. This planet is so short on supplies."
In fact, everyone was mentally prepared for this. They had been here for more than a month and were familiar with the situation on the planet.
Garr looked distressed: "So what should we do now?"
Everyone was silent for a moment, then simultaneously turned their gaze towards the door behind them. Inside the door lay Amrita, whom they had just rescued.
Regardless, they had to give it a try. They all knew that the Crown Prince's mental strength was at S-level, and even an A-level female wouldn't necessarily be successful. And Anita was only D-level.
