He's spoiled rotten; that wolf cub knows how to flirt and be affectionate.

These people's target is Bai Yan. They captured her and then left her here, clearly thinking she posed no threat whatsoever. However, this also makes it easier for her to escape.

"Mistress, unlock the door."

I don't know this skill.

"Can you summon your brothers and sisters to kill those people?"

[...Please be mindful of your word choice; this is a civilized society.]

Hearing 3333's rather speechless voice, Qu Yi felt much more relaxed.

Unable to unlock it, her gaze swept around and settled on a small window.

Go outside for some fresh air.

【Okay!】I know how to do that.

The window was very small, and even though Qu Yi was small-framed and thin, she still scraped her arms and calves while passing through.

However, these scratches are not a big problem compared to the pain all over my body right now.

Following 3333's location, Qu Yi quickly found the place where they were holding Bai Yan. Five or six burly men were guarding the door, and they all smelled strongly of blood, so they were definitely not ordinary bodyguards or thugs.

How is Bai Yan doing?

[Currently unconscious with a head injury, but not in life-threatening condition.]

Hearing the curses and laughter coming from inside the house, Qu Yi's expression turned gloomy, but she couldn't act rashly now. She couldn't possibly take Bai Yan away unguarded under the watch of so many people.

[Host, your leg is bleeding. You need to stop the bleeding immediately.]

【Um. 】

Slowly retreating, Qu Yi retreated to a place where he could hide.

No one has been here for a long time. It's overgrown with weeds, but there are some useful plants, like this plantain plant in front of me that helps stop bleeding.

Leaning against a tree with his eyes closed to rest, he listened intently to every sound around him, not missing a single detail.

As the sun set and dusk fell, Qu Yi heard some faint sounds. After a while, she heard sounds behind her.

There were two men.

"You can start now."

"Hehe, they've done all that work. I wonder what their expressions will be when they find out that Bai Yan has been taken away by us."

"All we need to do is take the money. Stop talking nonsense and get to work."

"Kill him directly?"

"Otherwise, things could get complicated if we wait too long."

The two men walked past Qu Yi's hiding place, and only after they left did Qu Yi let out a long sigh of relief.

How many people has Bai Yan offended? There are two groups of people involved.

However, since someone brought Bai Yan out, she can worry less about it.

Can the rewards for completing tasks in this world be given in advance?

[You can pay on credit, but if you fail to complete the mission, you will be sent to a punishment world.]

Qu Yi had never heard the term "punishing the world" before, and she was a little curious, but she quickly put it out of her mind because she had more important things to do now.

The reward for completing this mission is a 100% guaranteed pricking needle.

Qu Yi paused, her steps faltering: "What?"

[A needle that will definitely prick your mom.]

What is it?

[A skill that, as the name suggests, guarantees a successful hit on the enemy's pressure point.]

【……】

First, you need a weapon to use this skill.

Qu Yi looked around, broke off a twig, and asked, "Is this okay?"

The scorpion on her shoulder wagged its tail: "No, it's not sharp enough."

He discarded the branch, pondered for a moment, and then suddenly turned his gaze to 3333.

...the tail.

Hearing footsteps, Qu Yi hid, holding 3333 in her hand.

[Host, please throw me gently, I'm very fragile.]

【Um. 】

3333 inwardly cried as she used her skill on her own tail needle.

Also, this skill can only be used once; you'll have to figure out the other one yourself.

No problem.

Under the cover of night, shadowy figures could be seen everywhere. Two men moved stealthily among the dilapidated houses. One walked ahead to scout the way, while the other followed behind, carrying a person on his shoulder.
