Chapter 424 The illness was discovered by Irina, who promised to keep it a secret, but it only lasted one night.



"Really? With 10,000 people, there's nothing to worry about. Let's go back to our rooms and chat."

Upon hearing this, Guo Xiaoxiao rubbed her forehead and said, "Oh, right. I'll go back to my room to rest then. I'm a little dizzy today. You guys chat first, and I'll come back to find you when I feel better."

Amansa asked anxiously, "Hurry and let Alo take a look at you. Why are you dizzy? Did something happen while you were out playing? Did you get scared?"

Irina, who knew medicine, came over to examine Guo Xiaoxiao. Guo Xiaoxiao complained of pain wherever Irina touched her, and Irina was puzzled.

"Looks like we really need to find Monet. Don't go back to your room; you won't sleep well and you'll need to take your medication."

Amansa: "If Irina can't find the cause, then it must be very serious."

Guo Xiaoxiao: "No need, no need, thank you. It's an old problem of mine, it happens from time to time. I'll be fine after a nap, really."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Arthur burst out of the room, looking like a shrew. The females screamed and scattered in terror, even Irina nearly tripping.

"Xiaoxiao, what's wrong? What's wrong with you?"

Guo Xiaoxiao sat down on the ground, then pulled herself together and stood up, covering her face: "I...I...Why did you run out? Didn't I tell you to wait for me?"

Arthur quickly grabbed Guo Xiaoxiao's wrist to carefully check if she had any injuries from the fall.

Seeing Arthur's concerned expression, Guo Xiaoxiao breathed a sigh of relief. Had he already returned to normal? Just as Guo Xiaoxiao was feeling fortunate...

Arthur said hesitantly.

"You just leave me at home and don't spend more time with me, I'm angry."

Amansa: "Beast God, who is this person?"

Irina: "It seems to be Arthur."

"That's terrifying! What's that painted on his face? And what's that tied around his head?"

"Do we have these orcs in our cave? Are they new additions?"

Irina looked at it carefully and said solemnly.

"It's Arthur, it's definitely him. I'd recognize his face even if he were ashes."

Guo Xiaoxiao awkwardly pulled Arthur aside, saying, "No, no, Arthur, he's a mentally unstable orc. I'll take him back to his room first."

Without waiting for Arthur's reply, she hurriedly pulled him into the room. Amansha rushed forward, wanting to say a few more words.

"Sasha, I'll come find you again later."

As she spoke, but with Amansha outside the door, Guo Xiaoxiao slammed the door shut with a loud bang.

Irina sensed something was amiss. A thoughtful female, she knew the man was clearly Arthur, so why was he hiding it? Arthur had made himself look like this, neither human nor ghost.

Irina immediately grasped the key point: perhaps the veterinarian could understand. They've always been elders in the tribe; why not ask Monet?

"Sasha, let Xiaoxiao be busy if she has things to do. Don't make things difficult for her."

Amansa looked at the closed door, then at Irina.

"I'm worried she might be in danger staying with that strange orc. Mickson's gone again. Sigh, there are still orcs guarding the cave. Should we send one to check on them?"

Irina: "You're overthinking it. Xiaoxiao is capable; she's a high priestess, everyone knows how powerful she is. How could a mere orc be more powerful than him?"

Irina was right. Everyone had witnessed Guo Xiaoxiao's abilities. What could a mere orc, a little mad orc, possibly do to Guo Xiaoxiao? Amansa stopped interfering.

"Okay, let's go upstairs, chat, and have some fruit."

Irina followed Amansa, chatted for a bit, and said she had something in Monet's room and was going to fetch it, promising to be right back.

Then Monet was asked to tell Irina if something had happened to those people. Monet didn't know who had told Irina this, which made her so suspicious, but she still told Irina.

You can tell Irina not to spread the news; they'll be fine after tonight, nothing serious.

So he was poisoned by datura flowers. No wonder Arthur was acting strangely, putting that stuff on his face.

Irina sneered. Guo Xiaoxiao had finally gotten what she deserved; the big males had become nothing more than a pile of shit.

It's a shame that one Mickelson isn't good enough for this stage. If it were just one night, Fara could have taken over.

Irina pondered a wicked plan, which welled up from the depths of her heart. She had an opportunity to do something evil, and this evil would benefit her.

Soon, the evil within will triumph over one's original conscience. Irina possesses exceptional integrity; having been pampered and revered as the most beautiful female on the continent since childhood.

Moreover, she was extremely enamored with status, and harbored hatred towards any female who was superior to her, as if the glory that rightfully belonged to her had been stolen from her.

She really tried her best, but she still couldn't catch up with Guo Xiaoxiao, who had a cheat code.

If Guo Xiaoxiao's partner goes crazy for two more days and wins over Fala, helping Fala rise to power, she can become the most respected female, her status will remain the same, and all the best resources will be concentrated on her.

Even the room where Guo Xiaoxiao lived became hers. This was a long process, and she didn't recommend taking it step by step.

To avoid arousing suspicion, Guo Xiaoxiao didn't clean the grime off Arthur's face. Luckily, Arthur had applied plant juice to his face; otherwise, it would have been incredibly embarrassing if someone had noticed.

"Xiaoxiao, I'm hungry, hurry up and cook some food."

Arthur's coquettish words were truly an eyesore, and Guo Xiaoxiao agreed.

"There's no time to grill meat now, have some jerky for now. I'll run up to the third-floor room to grill meat for you when it's quiet outside."

"Sit still and don't move around or shout. If someone hears you and comes in like this, they'll start to have all sorts of thoughts. When you wake up tomorrow, you'll feel embarrassed too. I'm doing this for your own good."

Arthur couldn't understand Guo Xiaoxiao's meaning. He was currently behaving like a girl with childlike instincts; he was hungry and wanted to eat, but didn't want to move. Yet, he felt he shouldn't let Guo Xiaoxiao do it.

Torn between two conflicting thoughts, Arthur suffered greatly, yet he still chose to let Guo Xiaoxiao give him food.

The things Guo Xiaoxiao did for him, the way she did things for his benefit, it seemed like she only had eyes for him.

"But I really want to eat grilled meat! The meat chunks are too tough, I don't like it. Can you make me some grilled meat? I'll be waiting for you!"

She's picky! Guo Xiaoxiao doesn't like meat either; it's dry, hard, and tough, and she just wants to drink water after eating it.

"Okay, but you have to promise me you won't leave the room even for a moment. I'll go up to the third floor to grill the meat for you and bring it down, okay?"

"You are not allowed to move Carlos on the bed, not even touch him."

"Hmm... I won't leave, I won't touch him."

Arthur obediently agreed and sat on the edge of the bed, staring at Guo Xiaoxiao.

Guo Xiaoxiao: "Okay, I'll do it."

Guo Xiaoxiao walked out of the room, to the center of the grotto, and was about to go upstairs when she bumped into Irina.

Irina exclaimed

"Are you really going to go talk to Amansa? Or should you stay in the room and take care of Arthur?"
