Chapter 201 | I Broke the Survival Game with My BUG Physique

This was just an explanation of the situation.

Cheng Shuili watched quietly.

The three wolf-headed beastmen glanced at her cautiously before respectfully escorting the group away.

It seems that these three beastmen escorting her hold quite significant status within the wolf race.

As for why they were so afraid of her...

Cheng Shuili had two very reasonable guesses. The first, of course, was being intimidated by her combat power!

Although she hadn't even made a move yet, those who understand the times are wise; these three noble wolf-headed beastmen clearly looked like they had been molded by this philosophy since childhood.

Therefore, it was highly likely they would surrender immediately when faced with Cheng Shuili, who was ready to fight.

The second reason was 【Majesty】.

This effect was far too broad; no matter where she was, as long as the opponent was a beastman, it was extremely effective!

Cheng Shuili followed the three wolf-headed beastmen through over a dozen archways, learning through conversation that the lead beastman was the Wolf King.

The palaces here were lined up one after another, and each palace contained a long table with three wolf-headed beastmen sitting at it.

If she really had to use compressed biscuits to appease all these beastmen, the amount Cheng Shuili brought wouldn't be nearly enough.

Who could have guessed that a normal-level dungeon only required three compressed biscuits, while a hell-level dungeon required multiplying that number by over a dozen?

However, the further they went, the less food was placed on the long tables, and the more tattered the clothing of the wolf-headed beastmen sitting beside them became.

By the final palace, the long table had turned into a broken, empty desk, and the three wolf-headed beastmen sitting nearby were wrapped in nothing but rags, their gazes toward Cheng Shuili filled with nothing but the hunger for food.

How pitiful.

Cheng Shuili sighed in her heart.

But that was no reason for them to treat her as food.

Cheng Shuili endured it again and again, but realizing the three wolf-headed beastmen had not shifted their gazes, she finally drew her long blade.

No matter who it was, anyone would be angry if stared at with that kind of look, right?

The Wolf King standing beside her immediately let out an "Awoo," and the three wolf-headed beastmen who had been fixated on Cheng Shuili then reluctantly looked away.

The other two gorgeously dressed beastmen spoke up directly to persuade her: "Please don't be angry, they just haven't eaten in too long!"

"They truly offended you, but it is certainly not a crime punishable by death! Please be magnanimous and spare the lives of these three wolf cubs!"

"The finish line is just ahead, human lady. Once you exit from here, your trial will be complete."

Cheng Shuili snorted coldly; she really didn't want to cause any extra trouble at this moment.

The finish line the wolf-headed beastman spoke of was right before her eyes: a door filled with white light, with the word "Exit" written on the side.

It was so casual it felt like the entrance to a shopping mall.

Cheng Shuili was somewhat speechless. She had initially wondered if the Wolf King was playing some kind of trick, but considering the focus of this dungeon wasn't on finding the exit, she dismissed her misgivings.

However...

Cheng Shuili suddenly extended a hand, her gaze sincere as she looked at the Wolf King: "What about the treasure you said you would offer me?"

The Wolf King's expression froze, and his body went completely rigid.

He had just said that casually! And it was so noisy at the time! How on earth did this human hear that?

As expected of a human even he wasn't confident in defeating; she truly was terrifying.

But the treasure...

The Wolf King's eyes darted around, and he thought of a good way out.

"Human lady... you must have misheard, right? What kind of treasure could we possibly bring out in a place like this? This is truly a pity. If there is a chance to meet you again next time, I will certainly offer you my most precious possession."

So, he was going to deny it.

Cheng Shuili raised an eyebrow, looking at him with a smirk: "Is that so?"

The Wolf King was intimidated by that expression, but since the words were already out, denying it now would undoubtedly be a slap to his own face!

He nodded, stiffening his neck as he insisted: "Really! It is absolutely true!"

Cheng Shuili's expression suddenly softened, and she asked again: "You'll give it to me when we meet next time?"

Her lips curled upward slightly, as if she were very satisfied with this promise.

Before the Wolf King could even speak, he heard Cheng Shuili add: "Since you are so sincere, why don't we sign a transaction agreement? Next time we meet, you will offer me a treasure, right?"

The Wolf King was stunned. He had truly never encountered a human who would chase him down and demand things like this.

But meeting next time...

The Wolf King scoffed in his heart. This human was indeed extraordinary, but in front of a veteran like him, she was still too naive.

What chance was there to meet again next time?

This was the last job of his Wolf King career! He was retiring!

There were no humans in the retirement world!

Meeting next time...?

There wouldn't be a next time!

The Wolf King proudly curled the corners of his mouth, suppressing his laughter as he said: "Of course. To demonstrate the demeanor of our wolf race, I am willing to reach this agreement with you as the Wolf King. When we meet next time, I will present you with the supreme treasure of our wolf race!"

He spoke with extreme sincerity, but his tail wagged like a propeller without any attempt to hide it.

The Wolf King felt he was truly too clever. As long as he made the agreement using his status as the Wolf King, what did it matter if this human found the retirement world later?

He would no longer be the Wolf King! The new Wolf King wouldn't have to abide by the agreement of an old Wolf King like him; this agreement would naturally become void!

Cheng Shuili didn't know what he was thinking; she simply drafted a transaction agreement at top speed.

Watching the Wolf King sign his name, Cheng Shuili tucked the agreement away carefully, satisfied.

A meaningful smile tugged at the corner of her mouth. She stood up straight and performed an elegant half-bow toward the three wolf-headed beastmen: "Then, many thanks to the three of you for your generosity."

She paused slightly on the word "generosity," clearly implying something else.

"I hope that when we meet next time, the supreme treasure of the wolf race will be enough to open my eyes."

The Wolf King puffed out his chest and responded with feigned solemnity: "That is natural! Our wolf race has always been true to our word!"

Cheng Shuili chuckled softly, her gaze sweeping over their forced, calm expressions: "In that case, I will wait and see. Three of you... farewell."

She nodded to each of the three wolf-headed beastmen and turned away...

Just as the Wolf King breathed a sigh of relief, thinking he had finally sent off this troublesome human, Cheng Shuili suddenly turned around. A smile played on her lips, but her words nearly caused the Wolf King's jaw to drop.

"Hello there, we meet again."

The other two wolf-headed beastmen who hadn't reacted in time twitched their ears involuntarily, while the Wolf King's tail instantly went rigid.

This doesn't count, right?!

The Wolf King widened his eyes slowly and immediately dug out the agreement he had just signed to examine it carefully. It clearly stated "next time we meet," next time we meet!
