Chapter 588: Chapter 416: The Worm Witch Who Vomits Blood and Faints
The Yan Yan Witch watched the black stream of light shoot toward her. She shrieked and tried to back away, but her speed was no match for it. The next second, the black light plunged into her body.
As everyone stared at the Yan Yan Witch in horror, they saw her mouth open wide as if to scream, but not a single sound came out.
"This female from your tribe is insufferably loud."
Wu Yue’s cold, disdainful voice rang out, and the expressions of everyone in the Super Tribe’s messenger party changed drastically.
The beastman captain glanced at the Healing Witch beside him. "Do you know what kind of witchcraft this is?"
The Healing Witch’s expression was grim. He whispered, "I don’t know. I’ve never seen it before."
A witch’s witchcraft varies depending on the attributes of their witch power, and even on the witch themselves. However, they had never seen witchcraft that could render a person mute.
They were instantly on high alert around Wu Yue.
Who knew what other witchcraft this mysterious witch might possess.
"System, how long does this thing last?"
Wu Yue’s heart ached as she saw twenty points vanish from her status panel. Her expression darkened as she watched the Yan Yan Witch across from her, who was jumping up and down in frustration.
’That woman just couldn’t behave herself. What a waste of my precious points to deal with her.’
The System, who was looking up the description, replied a moment later, "The maximum duration is one day. It’s a one-time-use consumable, but the accompanying removal talisman can lift the effect at any time."
Wu Yue sneered and casually tossed the removal talisman into her inventory space.
’Paper is still a precious commodity. The paper I use to wipe my butt is exchanged from the System at a high price.’
’Instead of using it to free that annoying female, I’d be better off saving it to do my own butt a favor.’
Seeing its Host’s stingy display, the System gave a sympathetic look to the Yan Yan Witch, who was hopping mad as a Beastman Warrior moved her to the back. It silently lit a candle for her.
"This witch’s witchcraft is truly powerful,"
the Healing Witch said coolly.
Wu Yue nodded. "But of course."
The Healing Witch: "..."
’So shameless! Do her Father and Amu know she’s like this?’
"Are you also here in the Extreme Cold Forest to hunt for Crystal Cores, Witch?"
The Healing Witch’s eyes flickered. The witch across from them had obviously arrived much earlier than they had, and likely knew more about this Extreme Cold Forest.
’It would be perfect if we could ask her to be our guide.’
But would Wu Yue play along?
"I’m just traveling. I happened to be passing through and decided to gather some herbs. This isn’t my tribe’s territory, so how would I know anything about it?"
She bluntly shut down the Healing Witch’s line of questioning.
The Healing Witch’s expression darkened. He clearly didn’t believe that Wu Yue knew nothing.
But since she wouldn’t admit it, there was nothing they could do, especially since they were still uncertain of her true strength.
Wu Yue looked at their grim expressions, feeling anxious herself. She had come out looking for Yuan Lang and the others.
She never expected that these people from the Super Tribe would arrive ahead of schedule.
Her appearance had changed drastically after taking the elixir, which was why the Yan Yan Witch and that timid Scorpion Tribe beastman standing in the back hadn’t recognized her.
But if this group ran into Yuan Lang and his companions, it would be a disaster.
"Host, don’t panic yet," the System advised. "We can go back to where you were before to look for them. If they aren’t there, we’ll head deeper into the forest."
"This is their first time here, so they’ll need time to acclimate. We still have the advantage."
But there was one thing the System didn’t say: if Yuan Lang’s group managed to run into these people even under these circumstances, it would be the very definition of rotten luck.
With that, Wu Yue ignored them and bent down to continue gathering her herbs.
She had the System, however, keep a close watch on their movements.
Seeing Wu Yue act as if they weren’t even there made the people from the Super Tribe even more wary of her.
"Host, that was a pretty good act."
Wu Yue wept internally. ’Damn it, after spending so many points, if it still had the quality of a five-cent special effect, I would’ve really smashed the System Mall.’
Sensing its Dog Host’s thoughts, the System’s expression instantly darkened.
"Witches, what do we do now?"
The beastman captain asked in a low voice, his gaze dark as he glanced at the slender figure not far away.
The four witches remained silent for a moment. The Worm Witch’s withered hand emerged from under his clothes to brush against the ground. Only then did he speak. "Traveling alone?
Heh, I find that highly suspicious. But that witchcraft she used just now was also very bizarre."
