Chapter 291 Reagents
After being knocked to the ground, the female orc shook her head and stood up.

She glanced at Jiang Mian with an inscrutable expression, then looked away, no longer looking at her. Instead, she slowly picked up her cigarette again, lit it, and her gaze slowly shifted to the other female orcs still on the ground. Then she coldly said, "Still playing dead on the ground? Come here, all of you." The female orc spoke indifferently.

The female orcs who were writhing and tumbling on the ground in pain, clutching their stomachs, quickly got up and walked over to the female orc with the cigarette in her mouth.

"Sister Yan." Several female beastmen responded obsequiously, glancing at Jiang Mian with a hint of fear in their eyes.

The next second, the woman with the cigarette stubbed out her cigarette and pressed it onto the shoulder of the female orc.

The female orc couldn't dodge in time, and her clothes on her shoulder were burned through, even reaching the skin underneath. She let out a scream.

"Don't call me over if you don't understand the situation in the future." Sister Yan kicked the female orc away. "You're just jealous of her good looks, but you don't even know anything about her strength."

The woman with the cigarette took a puff and then threw it at the female orc.

Then she turned and left, and the other female orcs followed her.

The female orc on the ground looked at the departing figure of Sister Yan with an extremely sinister expression.

She then glared at Jiang Mian fiercely before quickly getting up and leaving.

The sheep girl on the other side rushed back: "I heard someone is robbing ore here, are you alright?"

She was carrying two bottles of water, some of which had spilled because she had rushed back.

"It's nothing." Jiang Mian shook her head.

The sheep girl, seeing her torn skirt, said, "The people they were talking about fighting earlier weren't you, were they?"

"Yes, that's right." Jiang Mian nodded, then added, "I'm fine."

The sheep-like girl paused for a moment, then softly said, "I'm sorry."

“You don’t need to apologize. They came for me anyway. Your ore is secondary.” Jiang Mian took the bottle of water from her hand. “You wait here. I have to go out and do some things.”

The sheep girl quickly grabbed her hand, somewhat worried: "What will I do if you leave?"

"If you don't mind, you can carry those heavy ore and come out with me," Jiang Mian said casually.

"Then, then you should go by yourself." The sheep-like girl finally let go.

Jiang Mian then went out to find herbs to concoct potions. She took the plants that grew on the cliff face and had roots that could penetrate deep into the mountain and extracted their secretions, which could be used to make the reagents she wanted.

Halfway there, a figure blocked her way.

Jiang Mian frowned, then saw that it was an orc wearing a baseball cap. She frowned slightly, then relaxed, and after a pause, asked, "Hello, what can I do for you?"

The other person's hat brim was pulled down very low, so Jiang Mian couldn't see half of his face and therefore didn't recognize him as the lion-beastman.

Until the orc in front of her slightly raised his head and handed her the nutrient solution in his hand.

"Here you go, don't go hungry," Chen said slowly.

Jiang Mian recognized him immediately; this was the lion-beastman. She looked surprised and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Chen paused for a moment, because he had come with Jiang Mian, but he couldn't bring himself to say it.

"Hmm." He simply responded softly, without explaining why he was there.

"You drink it yourself, I'm fine." Jiang Mian assumed that the other person had been captured and brought here to mine.

The other party had also obtained this vial of nutrients with great difficulty, so she did not intend to accept it.

But the person in front of him kept his hand outstretched and refused to retract it.

Jiang Mian ignored him and refused to accept it.

"Where are you going now?" Chen didn't leave immediately. "Yes." Jiang Mian paused and nodded.

She hadn't forgotten how this person had previously touched her inappropriately.

Although he had helped her before and was now trying to give her nutrients out of good intentions, it was a fact that he had sexually assaulted her, so she still wouldn't be willing to go with him.

Chen noticed the aloofness in Jiang Mian's eyes and her distance from strangers.

A sense of unease rose within him.

“It’s dangerous, I’ll stay with you.” Chen stood beside her and didn’t leave.

Jiang Mian glanced at the other person a few times, her eyes filled with even more indifference and coldness: "No need, I don't want to say it a second time."

She said that without looking at the lion-man again, she walked right past him.

Chen gripped the nutrient solution bottle tightly, and accidentally crushed it.

This was clearly the nutrient solution he obtained from mining all day, and he just crushed it by force.

Glass shards sank into his palm, but he seemed completely unaware.

She really didn't like him.

He shouldn't have used that method; he should have just arrested her directly.

She wasn't given any chance to refuse.

After Jiang Mian left, he didn't notice the lion. The beastman's face was filled with an inscrutable expression; he was going to find something to make a potion.

On the other side, the sheep-like girl waited anxiously for Jiang Mian to return.

However, perhaps because Jiang Mian had just fought with those people, no one dared to come and cause trouble for her now.

Time passed slowly, and the sheep girl was almost asleep when she saw Jiang Mian return, carrying a bottle of green and yellow liquid, the purpose of which was unknown.

Jiang Mian didn't say much after taking it back, but lay down on the bed next to her.

The sheep girl saw this but didn't say anything, nor did she ask any more questions. Besides, she was very sleepy, so she quickly closed her eyes and fell asleep.

When Jiang Mian went to collect those plants for extraction, she could actually see that the lion-man was following her at a distance.

She pretended not to notice him, and as long as he didn't do anything excessive, she turned a blind eye.

So, without being bothered, she pretended not to notice the other person and successfully prepared the reagent before returning home.

The next day.

The group was off to mine again.

It was in the sweltering mine again, and everyone else was digging away, but Jiang Mian was naturally not digging.

"Anyone want to mine quickly?" Jiang Mian sat down in the mine and set up a stall. "Just apply this one bottle of my stuff and you can mine quickly. It's very cheap. Just use the ore you mine to buy it."

For a moment, everyone else just glanced at her, but no one went up to buy her bottle of product to apply.

Sheep Girl: ...

Not only do they not mine, but they also try to cheat and swindle.

Jiang Mian noticed the sheep girl's gaze and smiled at her, "Sheep, do you want some? Just give me a quarter of the ore you mined."

Why a quarter? Because this bottle of reagent is only enough to coat the tools of four people.
