Quick Transmigration: Reversing the Life of a Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character
Chapter 438 The Rise of the Pureblood Orcs
"There are some records in the clan. The destruction of Silent City seems to be somewhat tragic." When Bai Xinyue decided to come here, she flipped through many related books and scrolls in the sacrificial hall. The ancestors of the Gale Wolf Clan seemed to know some inside information. As if they were wary of something, they recorded it in just a few words. However, she could see a bit of admiration in their words.
After a few seconds of silence, Bai Zhuang asked softly, "Seventh Miss, shall we go in? The city gates are closed."
"Come in, it's so cold outside."
The temperature was already very low; you could see your breath when you spoke. Liu Ying and the two witches huddled together, their shoulders hunched.
"Shall we go up to the city wall?"
"Wait here, protect the three of them." Bai Xinyue leaped up and easily climbed the city wall, which was several meters high.
The city wall is more than two meters wide, and every ten meters or so there is a small house with a small window, which should be a watchtower that serves as both a lookout and a sentry post. Looking further into the city, a few lights are flickering faintly, indicating that many people have already entered the city.
Bai Xinyue entered the nearest tower, where she saw an old-fashioned table and four benches. If it weren't for the complete skeleton standing in the corner, it would really be an ordinary room.
There was another adjoining room with a simple wooden bed against the wall. It was clean, without any bedding, and unusually clean. After a thousand years, there wasn't a speck of dust. It wasn't the kind of cleanliness that comes from a recent cleaning, but rather a kind of solitude that had been forgotten by time and excluded from the world, a solitude so profound that even dust couldn't be produced.
Bai Xinyue turned and went back to the outer room, bowing to the skeleton: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to disturb you. It's getting late, we'll rest here for the night and then leave."
After saying that, she went out the door, jumped down from the city wall, and carried Wu Si up the city wall with one hand. Behind her, four orc warriors split into two groups, two carrying one, and brought Wu Da and Liu Ying up the city wall.
When Bai Xinyue entered the tower again, her pupils contracted slightly; the skeleton was gone!
"Seventh Miss?" Bai Wen asked, puzzled, as he saw her staring at the corner of the wall.
"It's alright. When I came in, there was a skeleton standing there, perfectly intact, but it's gone now."
"Huh?" Bai Wen took a few steps forward, carefully observing the direction she was pointing. After a while, he shook his head: "I don't see anything unusual. How about we go somewhere else?"
"Close the door." Bai Xinyue's expression changed.
Bai Zhuang, who was at the back, reached out and quickly pulled the door shut, keeping his hand firmly on the doorknob and not letting go.
Outside, the sobbing continued, but this sobbing was very real, unlike the ethereal ghostly figures; one could even hear the thud of something hitting the wall.
"Let's take turns resting and have something to eat."
"What's that outside? Or some ghostly phantom?" Liu Ying reached out to Bai Wen, asking her to bring out water and food, muttering to herself.
"I don't know, but they don't seem to be able to break down the door." Bai Xinyue glanced at Liu Ying: "You're quite bold."
The two shamans were pale, while the four orc warriors remained calm, though their expressions were cautious and serious.
"I am also an orc warrior, an orc with talent, although my bloodline is somewhat inferior," Liu Ying said in a relaxed tone.
Among the group accompanying the Seventh Miss, she had the worst bloodline, but she had a special awakened talent that allowed her to sense the good and evil in others, which was why she was able to accompany the Seventh Miss.
Instead of using the original tables, chairs, and beds in the house, they took out animal hides from the space device, sat on the ground, and ate the dried meat they had prepared in advance and the fruit they had picked on the road a few days earlier. The space device did not completely preserve the food, but it did have a certain effect in delaying the spoilage of the food.
Bai Xinyue and Liu Ying slept quite well that night, but the others didn't sleep very well. This was not only because of the dark figures outside, but also because there were occasional noises in the Silent City, as if some people had gone out at night and were fighting with those phantoms.
"Ah!" Wu Da let out a low cry of surprise.
Bai Xinyue reacted quickly, standing up and looking around warily: "What's wrong?"
"Seventh Miss, the skeleton you mentioned has suddenly appeared there," Bai Wen said in a low voice.
Bai Xinyue looked at the skeleton, then at the sky outside: "It's dawn, he'll be back then. So, these were the ones wandering around last night?"
"Huh? But where did he come from?" Wu Da asked softly. The doors and windows were closed tightly, and they hadn't gone out yet.
"Who knows? He's already passed away, so it's normal for him to have some special abilities." Bai Xinyue walked up to the skeleton and said gently, "I'm so sorry to have bothered you for the night. We'll be leaving soon, please bear with us a little longer."
Wu Da: "..."
Why am I suddenly not so scared anymore?
After eating a simple meal, Bai Xinyue led her people away from the city walls and into the Silent City.
"Seventh Miss, should we look for Manlu?"
"No need, we've already entered Silent City, she's no longer of any use. Let's just wander around." Bai Xinyue's current target is the barbarian princess, Man Qing.
This is a legendary figure, known as the Barbarian War Goddess. She possesses great martial prowess and influence, and her status among the barbarians is second only to the Barbarian King and the Priest. However, she had long ago announced her withdrawal from the struggle for the crown prince position and even changed the royal family's surname.
Logically speaking, she shouldn't have entered this trial, but according to the information later compiled by the Gale Wolf Clan in the original owner's life, she came, bringing with her totem clone.
Therefore, Bai Xinyue's current target is her. As long as she follows her, she can snatch a supplement for her family's totem at the last moment.
If all else fails, then follow the Tengshe Clan. As the former masters of Silent City and the totem avatars of the Fallen Demons, they must know something.
"You? Bai Xinyue, you're still alive." Having failed to find the person she was looking for, she'd instead run into someone she didn't want to find; Manlu's opening remark was sarcastic.
"Our seventh young lady will naturally be fine. We are even more surprised that you are still alive." Liu Ying glanced at Bai Xinyue, who did not want to speak, and retorted sharply.
"You, you're just a maid, how dare you speak to me like that?" Manluqi's face turned red.
"That's what I said, so what?" Liu Ying said arrogantly, hands on her hips, knowing how to take advantage of her position, with half of her body hidden behind Bai Wen.
"Bai Xinyue!!!"
"It was me who said it. Why are you coming at me and calling me the Seventh Miss of the Clan?"
From the crowd of onlookers, an angry voice spoke up: "Little Fourteen, you really have no backbone! After staying in Gale Ridge for so long, all you've achieved is a position where you dare to talk back to a maid?"
"Thirteen, this is my business." Manlu was very angry, but she remembered that the Thirteenth Prince was her rival and did not want to show weakness in front of her.
"You ungrateful fool, no wonder you've ended up like this." The Thirteenth Prince quickly suppressed his anger and said lightly.
Bai Xinyue's gaze fell on the man dressed as a woman. The thirteenth princess of the barbarian tribe was a woman who was thriving in the bird tribe and certainly had the right to mock Manlu.
Moreover, such masterful control over one's inner energy is truly something to be wary of.
