“Damn bastards, they didn’t die at the hands of a vicious beast, right?”

“I hope they died at the hands of a vicious beast, otherwise Boss will kill us.”

“Do you guys think those four bastards could have been killed by this little camp?”

“They dare? Who dares to offend our boss and risk their lives?”

“That’s true.”

Three dusty men were cursing, swearing, and hurrying while traveling.

As Bloodbeard group’s scouts, it was common for them to travel early in the morning.

In this post-apocalypse world, there was a 90% chance of encountering a vicious beast as long as people were not traveling late at night.

Moreover, there was a special method to avoid some vicious beasts. If they were unlucky and couldn’t avoid or escape a vicious beast, they could only wait for death.

The Bloodbeard thieves did not raise trash. Those who did not have much ability could only work as slaves.

Being a slave was sometimes more painful than death.

“How much farther?” One of them asked.

“We should be able to arrive at dawn.”

“Why does the Boss want to work with the people from this small camp? He can just kill them and grab their stuff.”

“Did you forget about the group of Moon Wolves that we encountered last time? Since a lot of people died, the Boss definitely wants to replenish manpower.”

“Unfortunately, all the scouts on that trip seem to have died.”

“Don’t be too loud and hurry up.”

The three of them quieted down and hurried on their way.

From time to time, they would stop to rest, or lie on the back of nearby rocks to avoid the passing beasts.

They continuously walked until the horizon became orange-red, signifying dawn.

At this moment, the three of them stood on a hill and looked at the fist-sized camp in the distance.

“Look, is it that camp?” One person shouted excitedly.

“Yes, that’s the one.”

Then the leader of the scouts started giving instructions. “We’ll sneak in from three directions and later we’ll regroup here.”

“No problem.”

Afterward, the three of them headed towards the camp.

On the way, the three of them did not have a good look on their faces.

They didn’t hear a single sound, as if the whole camp was empty.

“”

Suddenly, one of the scouts fell down.

“What was that?” The scout quickly got up and looked for what had tripped him.

However, he didn’t see anything even after looking for a while.

“Strange.” The scout became even more alert.

When the three scouts entered the camp, all of them tripped and fell.

After completing their investigation, the three of them returned to the hill and exchanged information.

“The doors of the houses were open and important things were missing. They should have left in a hurry.”

“The charcoal fire hasn’t burned out yet. They should have left before dawn.”

“It’s the same on my side.”

The three of them looked at each other with very ugly expressions.

“Damn it, they actually ran away.” A scout shouted angrily.

“They just escaped not long ago. Should we go after them?” Another scout asked.

“Go after them, find them, and leave marks along the way.”

The leader of the scouts started giving instructions. “The other one will follow me back to report to the boss.”

“Do you guys think the Boss will go after them?”

“You are asking such an idiotic question. That guy from the camp fooled the boss. You know about the boss’s temper. He will definitely go after them.”

“If they had left yesterday, the Boss might not have chased them personally. He will only send some people to go after them at most.”

“Now…… Now, they’re going to die.”

“Let’s stop discussing boss’s affairs. Hurry up and rest for a while because we have to go back and report the situation.”

“Yes.”

After the three scouts finished eating, they sat on the ground and closed their eyes to rest.

About half an hour later, the three of them split into two teams and left.

After the three of them left, a two-meter large lizard appeared on the rock wall beside the hill.

The tricolored lizard had been staring at the three people on the rock wall from the very beginning. The distance between them was no more than five meters.

“Hiss~~”

The tricolored lizard stuck out its tongue and remained silent as it received instructions from Mu Liang.

A moment later, the tricolored lizard climbed down from the rock wall and followed the team of two scouts.

…………

At this time, several kilometers away from the camp, the rock armor turtle was dozing on its stomach among the hills.

If someone didn’t look closely, they wouldn’t be able to discover that it was a turtle.

Ever since the food of rock armor turtle was replaced with evolutionary points, it did not need to worry about finding food. That was why it did not want to move anymore.

“Everything is going according to the plan, and it is already half successful. We can continue with the next step.”

Mu Liang smiled as he leisurely stood up from the fire pit and moved his body.

Last night, he went to all the firewood piles in the camp and lit them up at three o’clock.

After Mu Liang went back, he only slept for less than four hours before the Red Ghost Spider came to remind him that someone touched the silk.

Then, he woke up once again, observed the actions of the three scouts, and analyzed their behavior.

The three scouts did not disappoint him.

Afterward, Mu Liang told the tricolored lizard to follow the two scouts and find Bloodbeard’s headquarters.

The Red Ghost Spider was assigned to deal with the third thief scout.

Otherwise, the enemy might return to their base camp if they realized something was wrong while they were chasing the people of the camp. In that case, their efforts would be wasted.

“Oh no, I overslept.” Mino’s hair was in a mess, and her rabbit ears stood straight. She ran out of her room while holding the wolf skin in her arms.

When she came to the hall and saw Mu Liang, she shouted anxiously: “Mu Liang, let’s go to the camp and light the firewood.”

“We don’t need to go anymore.”

As soon as Mu Liang finished speaking, he saw that she was on the verge of crying.

He stopped teasing her and gently said, “I already lit the firewood last night.”

“Really? You didn’t miss the time?” Mino tightly hugged the wolf skin and sucked in her nose cutely.

“The timing was just right. The thief scouts have already believed in our plan.”

Mu Liang quietly stepped forward and corrected the young girl’s collar, which was about to slide off her shoulder.

“Ah~~” Mino’s face quickly turned red. She let out a cute cry and hurriedly ran back to the room.

A few moments later, Mino’s clear and dissatisfied voice sounded from the room: “Mu Liang, why didn’t you wake me up when you went to light the firewood?”

Before she went to bed, the young girl had reminded Mu Liang to wake her up so that she could help him when he went to light the firewood.

“I forgot.” Mu Liang couldn’t bear to wake her up when he saw that she was sleeping very soundly while holding the wolf skin in her arms.

After all, they had been busy building the house during the day and piling firewood at night.

The young girl’s physique wasn’t as strong as his. She had already reached her limit.

“Humph!” Mino gave a delicate hum, knowing that what Mu Liang said was just an excuse.

However, she couldn’t help but feel guilty because she didn’t help him.

Mu Liang looked at the door of her room and shouted without moving, “There won’t be any problem if I leave the breakfast to you today, right?”

“Of course, no problem.”

Mino’s figure immediately appeared at the door, and she said in a clear voice, “You can leave it to me.”

“Alright, I’ll leave the breakfast to you.”

When Mu Liang turned around, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

The young girl was so easy to please.
