Ahhhhh, high-altitude survival!

Jiang Siwei tilted her head slightly without speaking, but Li Guang couldn't wait to blurt it out, his voice loud and arrogant: "That's right! It's just an upgrade stone, not some rare and valuable item, yet you had to give it to that Lin Yue and offend our Brother Zhao. Heh, since you don't know what's good for you, then just give all your points and resources back to our Mighty Team!"

As expected, it was because of this incident. Now, Lin Yue really couldn't just leave like that. No matter what, this matter was indeed inextricably linked to her. Right now, Li Guang didn't know her name, but once he did, given their hostility towards her, the consequences were predictable.

Lin Yue's gaze fell on Jiang Siwei again, and this time, she couldn't help but feel a bit more favorably disposed towards Jiang Siwei.

She knew perfectly well that Jiang Siwei had met her before and must know about the feud between her and Zhao Yuxuan's group. Under such circumstances, it would be easy for Jiang Siwei to drag her into this mess. All she had to do was call out her name, and she might even be able to divert Li Guang and the others' attention, allowing them to slip away.

But right now, Jiang Siwei clearly didn't intend to do that. In fact, from her words and attitude, Lin Yue could sense that she was implying that Lin Yue should leave first. Regardless of her motives, Lin Yue accepted the favor.

Having made up her mind, Lin Yue began to carefully observe Li Guang's group. Despite Li Guang's earlier lecherous appearance, none of the dozen or so people he brought were women. It seemed that their so-called "Mighty Team," while claiming to accept all comers, actually had some unknown rules and shady practices.

Lin Yue's gaze swept quickly over Li Guang and the others, then she turned to Jiang Siwei and asked, "How many can you handle?"

Her voice wasn't loud, and Jiang Siwei was taken aback at first, then instantly understood Lin Yue's intention. A hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, but her voice was firm: "Two is no problem! It's a pity my leg hurts so much, otherwise I could even try five."

After hearing this, Lin Yue nodded slightly, gestured with her chin towards Senior Brother Jiang Siwei, and asked again, "Where is he?"

Jiang Siwei replied without hesitation, "My senior brother is no weaker than me."

"That's fine then." Lin Yue nodded, then took out two brownish-red pills from her bracelet bag and tossed them to Jiang Siwei and her senior brother without hesitation, saying simply, "Eat them!"

This is a painkiller she made based on the mouse's prescription. Although it doesn't work on Jinxuan, since it's a system-designated drug, it should be effective for players, right? As long as it can relieve pain, it should restore a lot of the siblings' fighting power.

Jiang Siwei seemed to trust Lin Yue completely. Upon receiving the pills, she didn't hesitate and immediately swallowed them. A moment later, her energy and spirits noticeably improved. Her complexion, which had been slightly pale due to the pain, gradually regained its rosy hue, and her eyes became brighter.

Jiang Siwei's senior brother was clearly more cautious than her. He first put the pill into his backpack and checked its properties. When he saw the description of pain relief and stamina restoration, a look of joy appeared on his face. He immediately threw the pill into his mouth and chewed it down in a few bites.

Li Guang also realized that something was wrong. His eyebrows shot up instantly, and he took two steps closer to Lin Yue, saying fiercely, "Little brat, are you trying to go against our Mighty Team?"

"What?" Lin Yue sneered, a slight upturn at the corners of her mouth. "Wasn't it obvious to me?"

Enraged by Lin Yue's attitude, Li Guang slammed his whip on the ground with a loud crack, then gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, fine, you won't listen to reason, you'll regret it!"

Seeing that a major battle was about to break out, Jiang Siwei and her senior brother exchanged a glance, understood each other, and quickly moved closer together, shielding Lin Yue behind them.

Jiang Siwei turned her head slightly and said to Lin Yue, "You just stay here and watch. My senior brother and I are in better shape now, and we have our own ways of dealing with these bastards."

The words had barely left his mouth when the two pounced like tigers. Their figures weaved through the crowd, shouts of battle and the clashing of weapons mingling together, and the melee instantly resumed.

Lin Yue stood behind the two, smiling slightly at their spirited appearance. Perfect timing; she disliked close combat, and this position was ideal for her. She reached into her backpack and took out the "Frost Archer," silently aiming at a thin man who was about to attack Jiang Siwei.

"3," Lin Yue said, pointing at the man's upper body as she began to count down silently.

“2,” a ferocious smile appeared on the thin man’s face. He raised the dagger high in his hand, ready to stab Jiang Siwei in the back, completely unaware of the approaching danger.

"1! Pfft—"

Just as the skinny man was about to make his move, a blue pea shot out and hit him precisely.

The Ice Pea released a powerful chill that instantly froze the skinny man. His body remained in an attacking stance, but he could not move forward any further, and the ferocious expression on his face was frozen in that moment.

Jiang Siwei noticed the movement behind her, paused for a moment, and then reacted with lightning speed. Her claws, sharp as larks at the tip, pierced the man's neck like blades.

Four streaks of blood shot out like fountains. Before the man could even let out a wail, with two loud "heh-heh" sounds, his body slowly collapsed and crashed heavily to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

Seeing their comrade fall to the ground dead, the members of the Mighty Team visibly tensed up. Fear began to appear in their eyes, and their attack rhythm became chaotic. Li Guang was furious, his eyes wide with rage. He immediately recognized that Lin Yue was behind it all, raised his whip high, and lashed it out at Lin Yue.

The whip whistled through the air, but Lin Yue remained calm. She quickly switched the target of "Frost Archer" to another man who was rushing towards Jiang Siwei. At the same time, she summoned "Wall-nut" from the Plants vs. Zombies game and placed it in front of her.

Li Guang's whip lashed hard against the "Nut Wall," producing a dull thud. The "Nut Wall" swayed slightly, then stood firmly in place again.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Lin Yue grabbed the end of the whip, which had lost its impact, and pulled it hard.

After consuming the Drunken Immortal Fruit, Lin Yue's strength increased to 13. With the additional bonus from the two daggers, her strength now reached a full 33 points.
