Chapter 241
The skeleton leader laughed angrily, "Very well, I see you won't shed a tear until you see the coffin. Come on, torture her!"
“Chief, it doesn’t matter if you kill me. I just want to remind you that our tribe never suffers a loss. They might be on their way. When you see them, you’d better not say anything about what you did to me,” Shen Miao said calmly.
The skeleton leader, curious, couldn't help but ask, "Why?"
Shen Miao raised the corners of her mouth, "Because they will fight to the death."
In the end, the Skeleton Leader did nothing to Shen Miao, not because he was frightened by her words, but because someone who resembled a strategist said something to the Skeleton Leader, who then ordered Shen Miao to be imprisoned.
As soon as Shen Miao was taken away, the leader immediately said to the strategist, "Are you sure that if you treat her well, she'll tell you everything?"
The strategist, feigning profundity, said, "Of course, this female beast is very important. Currently, we have no way to deal with their tribe. The things inside them are very strange. Only by getting them out of her can we learn their secrets and defeat them."
The skeleton leader thought this made sense, so he ordered the skeleton soldier guarding Shen Miao to bring her food.
However, their grilling skills were really terrible. The meat was not cooked through, still bloody, and had a very strong fishy smell. Shen Miao almost vomited after smelling it for a moment.
"I'm giving you meat, and you're still pretending? What are you pretending for? I'll starve you for a few days and see if you're still picky then," a skeleton soldier mocked.
Another skeleton soldier laughed and said, "I think she's not being picky, but rather she's never eaten such delicious meat before."
As he spoke, he picked up a piece of animal meat and began to eat it in large mouthfuls, with blood dripping from the corner of his mouth as if he were eating raw meat.
Shen Miao looked away expressionlessly. "Whatever makes you happy."
Two skeleton soldiers feasted beside Shen Miao, and after they were full, they even let out a satisfied burp and threw a pile of bloody bones on the ground.
In contrast, Shen Miao didn't eat a single bite of meat, only a few bites of wild vegetables, and sat listlessly leaning against the tree trunk.
During this time, Shen Miao lost a lot of weight, her facial contours became clearer, and her features became small and delicate, especially her eyes, which were dark and lively, making people want to conquer her.
Now she leans against the wall with her eyes closed, her face appearing strangely vulnerable in the glow of the campfire. Considering her fierce battles during the day, the two skeleton soldiers couldn't help but feel a little restless.
"This female beast is damn hot. I've never seen such a beautiful female beast before, and her combat power is so high. Damn, it would be great if I could get my hands on her and play with her."
Another skeleton soldier laughed, "Why not? Didn't you see that the leader didn't say anything? We could play with those captured orcs all we wanted."
The skeleton soldier's eyes lit up. "That's right. The leader doesn't care about her. We just do whatever we want. Wait, you watch over her. I'll go first. After I'm done, I'll take over for you."
"Why make it so complicated? Just come together. It's not like it's the first time."
"What you said makes sense, let's do it together then."
The two skeleton soldiers, with lewd smiles on their faces, walked towards Shen Miao.
Shen Miao wasn't actually asleep; she was just leaning against the tree trunk, lost in thought. She overheard the conversation between the two skeleton soldiers, and for a moment, she felt even more disgusted than if she had seen them eating bloody beast meat.
As the two skeleton soldiers approached, Shen Miao suddenly opened her eyes, which were as black as a bottomless abyss.
The two men were startled, but then they realized what was happening. The taller one grinned lewdly and said, "So you were awake. That's even better. Don't be scared. We just want to have some fun with you."
"How do you want to play?" Shen Miao asked calmly.
"Of course it's more comfortable for you."
Shen Miao raised an eyebrow, her standard phoenix eyes sharp and piercing. "Is that so? Did you ask the leader before doing this?"
The skeleton soldier said indifferently, "Why are you asking? You've been captured, so you're our prisoner. The leader has stipulated that we can do whatever we want with prisoners."
"Is that so? It seems you don't understand your leader's meaning. Do you know why your leader asked you to give me food? Did the slaves of the past receive such treatment?" Shen Miao asked leisurely.
The skeleton soldiers were very simple-minded and couldn't understand Shen Miao's question at all. After hearing the question, both of them started to look confused.
Shen Miao sneered, "You don't even understand what your leader means, yet you dare to touch me at will. I think you're tired of living."
One of the skeleton soldiers reacted and asked gruffly, "You still haven't explained why we can't touch you."
“How utterly foolish! You two should think carefully about why you failed in your attack on our tribe this time.” Shen Miao teased the two men without batting an eye.
The two of them asked, dumbfounded, "Why?"
“Because we have a way to restrain you, and even your chief can’t do anything to us. If your chief wants to continue attacking our tribe, he needs to know our tribe’s secrets,” Shen Miao said slowly.
Two skeleton soldiers: Oh.
But what does this have to do with them?
"Wait, so what? This has nothing to do with us having fun with you." One of the skeleton soldiers finally realized what was going on.
Shen Miao looked at them with the eyes of someone looking at idiots, and said with disappointment, "Your chief is trying to curry favor with me now, hoping that I will tell you the secrets of the tribe, but you want to ruin his plans. Do you think the chief will let you off the hook once he finds out?"
The two skeleton soldiers were startled by these words. They were thankful that Shen Miao had reminded them, otherwise they would have ruined their leader's plans.
The leader has a bad temper; if he finds out they've ruined his plans, he'll probably wipe them out.
The two dared not act rashly again, abandoning all thoughts of hers, and dared not get too close to Shen Miao, obediently keeping their distance from her.
Shen Miao sneered inwardly, ignored the two of them, and closed her eyes again.
At this moment, all was quiet. The skeleton soldiers had been traveling all day and had been chased by Shen Miao for so long. They were exhausted and had long since fallen asleep, staggering about.
Shen Miao couldn't fall asleep no matter what she did, and her mind kept replaying Qing Chen and the babies.
I wonder how they are doing now. The kids must be crying because they can't see her. And Qingchen, he must be worried too. I really shouldn't have disobeyed Jiuying.
Don't pursue a cornered enemy; how could I have been so blinded by greed?
Or perhaps, if she hadn't been so careless when she caught up, she wouldn't have fallen for the skeleton soldiers' trap. Ultimately, it was because she underestimated them.
Shen Miao sighed deeply, her mind still troubled.
