A vicious female is trapped in a beastly hell.

Chapter 343 Black Wind Stronghold Mountain King (Bonus Chapter for Donations)
On a hilltop outside the city.

A group of bandits and thugs were squatting there, staring at the trucks that were being delivered below, excitedly rubbing their hands together, their eyes red with anticipation.

"Third Master, this is full of food and medicine! Let's grab this good stuff quickly!"

After the emergency supplies were airlifted, most of the supplies were still transported by land, giving these bandits and outlaws who had taken over the mountains after the war an opportunity to strike.

The lead blond orc spat out the grass root in his mouth and gave the order, "Get the hell out of here!"

A hundred or so orcs pushed the pre-arranged boulder, making a rumbling sound as it rolled down the ridge.

In the chaos, they rushed down with guns and seized the goods to take back to the mountain stronghold.

……

In the capital, Shen Tang dispatched many teams to transport supplies to the disaster-stricken areas, with food and medicine being the most important.

The food reserves in the imperial city are almost exhausted, and supplies can only be transported from Green Field City to the disaster-stricken areas.

The supplies in Greenfield City are limited and can only quench the thirst temporarily.

The empire's current grain production is still too low.

The system alerted: [The food crisis is worsening, potentially triggering famine, leading to population loss and a further decline in public morale.]

Fortunately, Shen Tang now has enough points, so she bought a large amount of seeds and fertilizer from her space and delivered them to the beastman in charge, intending to further expand the planting area.

Lu Xiao rushed in, "My lady, I have bad news for you."

His face was unusually cold and stern, and his whole body exuded a chilling aura.

Shen Tang stood up from her seat, suppressing her unease, and frowned, asking, "What happened?"

"Some of the grain being transported from Green Field City to the disaster-stricken areas was ambushed by bandits and robbed en route."

Upon hearing this, Shen Tang's face darkened, filled with rage.

Since the empire split, large areas of chaos and disorder have emerged across the land. These areas are leaderless and have seen the rise of many bandits and outlaws, some of whom have become quite powerful and are very troublesome.

But she never expected that this group of people would be so bold as to openly rob the royal family's disaster relief grain; they had truly gone against the heavens!

"Have you found out which force was behind this?" Shen Tang's voice was extremely cold and deep.

Lu Xiao showed her the information. "It should be Black Wind Stronghold. It's an old bandit stronghold that has existed for a long time. We've never been able to wipe it out before. Taking advantage of the chaos in the empire this time, they have rapidly expanded their power and become the largest bandit stronghold in the area. They have intercepted our bandits more than once."

"They intercepted these precious resources and then resold them to other places at high prices, making huge profits. They are universally condemned."

Shen Tang paused for a moment when she heard the somewhat familiar name.

Black Wind Village?
Where have I heard this before?
Shen Tang slapped his forehead and suddenly remembered.

When she was cooking live on stream, there was a hater who called himself the Black Wind Village Mountain King. That must be... a coincidence, right?

Just then, a mission was issued in his mind: [A base-building side mission is now issued to the host: Successfully eliminate Black Wind Stronghold and ensure the normal delivery of grain! Special requirements: The host must personally take action; time: within 5 days; reward: 1000 points, a mysterious treasure map!]

[Mission failure will result in a significant drop in prestige points. Please complete the mission as soon as possible!]

Shen Tang twitched her lips. This damn system was getting more and more difficult. It made her complete the bandit suppression mission within five days and even made her do it herself. It was simply making things difficult for her!
After winning several battles, her prestige had finally returned to a positive level, and she didn't want it to fall back into negative territory.

Seeing her lost in thought, Lu Xiao reminded her, "My lady, if we don't deal with these bandits and outlaws, they probably won't give up. Please send me with troops to suppress them."

Shen Tang grabbed his hand and said firmly, "This time, I'll go with you!"

Lu Xiao's deep blue eyes flashed with surprise, then he shook his head in disapproval, saying, "You are now the ruler of a country, this little matter is none of your business."

"Don't worry, they're just a bunch of vagrants and bandits. I haven't stretched my muscles in a long time, and since these people dared to cause trouble, I'll teach them a lesson." Looking at her bright smile, Lu Xiao's heart softened, and he didn't refuse anymore.

The two discussed their next steps.

A few days later.

It was still that remote mountain road that was frequently targeted by robberies.

A group of orcs drove a truck to the disaster area.

This time, however, there were two special people: Lu Xiao and Shen Tang, who were disguised as civilians.

On the hilltop, a group of bandits from Black Wind Village quickly and silently gathered.

They were so excited when they saw they could make some money again that they resorted to their old trick: pushing the huge rocks off the cliff.

But this time, unlike what was expected, the rocks that had rolled down the mountain seemed to have seen a ghost, and rolled back in the opposite direction, crushing the bandits on the ground, making them scream in agony, as if their bones were about to be shattered!

The next second, the disguised soldiers removed their disguises, captured the bandits, tied them together with ropes, and pinned them to the ground.

Shen Tang looked at Lu Xiao smugly and proudly raised her chin, "See, I told you so! Dealing with these small fry is a piece of cake!"

Lu Xiao smiled and said, "Yes, the female master is very powerful."

The blond-haired leader shouted in terror, "You'd better let us go right now, or else don't blame Black Wind Stronghold for revenge!"

The orc kicked him in the backside, knocking him to the ground, and cursed, "A bandit like you dares to spout such nonsense? Look who's in front of you! It's His Majesty!"

Upon hearing this, the blond-haired man was stunned and stammered, "Emperor?!"

Damn it, they were just intercepting some goods, and they actually managed to intercept the new emperor's goods!
If they had known that the emperor himself was coming today, they wouldn't have dared to do it even if they had ten times the courage!

Shen Tang looked at the blond-haired leader, who was quite young, but with his pointed mouth and monkey-like face, he looked somewhat sleazy. "Are you the one whose online ID is 'Black Wind Mountain King'?"

"What Black Wind Stronghold Mountain King? I don't know what you're talking about!" The orc looked terrified, his eyes filled with confusion, and he didn't seem to be faking it.

The henchman next to him spoke up, "Besides our boss, who else in this world would dare use that title! They'd be asking for death!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Tang became interested. Could it really be a coincidence?
She suddenly wanted to know if the leader of Black Wind Stronghold was related to the haters who were cursing her.

Moreover, if she wanted to complete the system's mission, she would definitely have to meet the leader of Black Wind Stronghold in person.

Shen Tang looked at the orc who had spoken, "How about I make a deal with you? I'll set you free, and you help me lure out your leader."

The orc's face flushed red as he struggled violently. "Don't even think about it! We will never become your empire's lackeys! I will never aid and abet evil—ah!"

Before the orc could finish speaking, Lu Xiao pulled something out and threw it into his mouth, almost suffocating him.

Shen Tang turned to look at Lu Xiao, "What did you feed him?"

Lu Xiao spoke gently, "It's just poison."

"..."

The most ruthless of all has to be the kind-hearted person!
