I Have a Date with a Thousand-year-old Female Corpse-Chapter 1289: Women Are Untrustworthy
Chapter 1289: Chapter 1289: Women Are Untrustworthy
Several consecutive screams attracted the fully armed centaurs. The ferocious centaurs were different from ordinary centaurs; their attack and movement speed were more than three times that of regular centaurs. Now, the adventure team members were facing low-intelligence monsters with a level close to 45!
"Whoosh!"
A sharp arrow was launched from the ferocious centaur archer’s bow, and someone turned into white light and vanished on the spot—yes, many people had forgotten that centaurs also had archers, and their precision and strength were not inferior to elves!
You stormed down the mountain like a ghost, taking advantage of the chaos in the ferocious centaur camp to rush into a small house.
Upon entering the small house, you realize it’s actually a granary.
At this moment, you heard angry shouts from the neighboring room made by a ferocious centaur: "Bitch, take it in your mouth! No one can take you away from me. You’re mine*** you’ll serve me forever!"
Using the Wind Slayer Knife, you carved out a small hole in the wall. Through the hole, you saw a completely naked, bloodied woman being gruesomely assaulted by a ferocious centaur. The centaur was enormous, at least two meters tall. At that moment, his hands were gripping the woman’s wrists while forcing that horrendous thing toward her mouth.
From the ferocious centaur’s words earlier, you deduced that this woman was highly likely the Little Princess Nansini of Roland City. Right now was also when the ferocious centaur’s guard seemed to be at its weakest. To save her, you had to act now!
"Wild Wind Dance!" The leader of the ferocious centaurs was still indulging in the rare pleasure of a human woman’s body when a man’s angry shout rang out from the adjacent granary. Suddenly, countless flying splinters burst forth, with a shining point among them.
No!
It was a blade gleaming with silver light!
"Someone..."
"Too late!"
Your blade was unbelievably swift. In an instant, the ferocious centaur felt as though the entire world had suddenly flipped; his vision blurred as he saw a man strip off his clothes and wrap them around the human woman he had been tormenting for two days straight...
"Are you Princess Nansini?" you asked, looking at the blank-eyed woman in your arms.
The woman showed no response, staring at you vacantly with hollow eyes as though her soul had already perished. Despite her frail state, you noticed she was strikingly beautiful.
"Leader! Leader!" A few ferocious centaurs heard the commotion and rushed over.
"No time to dwell!"
You shouted as you smashed a large hole in the wall at the back of the room, then darted away from the original granary.
Your diversion tactic worked impeccably. The ferocious centaurs, lousy strategists by nature, went berserk upon discovering their leader’s death and immediately chased in the direction of the newly broken wall.
You darted through the forest with wind-speed agility, but as you leaped over a tall tree, you caught sight of several red figures.
Red-armored men!
You were about to call out to them, but upon noticing the man in red armor beside the group of beauties, your expression turned dark.
"No wonder you kicked me out of the team. Turns out you found someone better to depend on."
Your voice carried far. When the red-armored men and the beauties heard you, all they saw was you disappearing into the woods with a disheveled-haired woman in your arms.
"He rescued the princess!"
"Chase him!"
"No need," the man in red armor said coldly, glaring at the spot where you vanished. "Mu Yun, hmph, he won’t get away."
The night deepened as you sat alone by the campfire. Nansini lay behind you in a peaceful slumber; perhaps this was the first time she had slept so soundly since her capture. Since meeting you, Nansini hadn’t uttered a word. However, she seemed to sense that you harbored no ill will toward her, and her wariness toward you gradually diminished.
Why? Why does it have to be like this?
The betrayal by the beauties—well, although it hasn’t been clarified face-to-face, it could be considered betrayal for now.
This left you confused. It’s just a game, but if they’re like this in the game, then what are they like in real life?
"No! No!"
Nansini woke from a nightmare, only to see a unfamiliar face that somehow made her feel safe.
"Who... who are you?"
"Who I am doesn’t matter. What matters is completing my mission, and you’re the centerpiece of this mission. Once I return you to Roland City, the road ahead for me will become slightly smoother."
"I’m not Princess Nansini... I’m just a maid."
"What did you say!" You abruptly stood up, your face filled with astonishment.
"I’m not... I’m just a maid, a maid who has been repeatedly violated by monsters." Her voice quivered as she covered her face and began to cry softly.
"You’re saying you’re not Nansini?" You lifted the maid entirely off the ground. "Say that again!"
The maid answered, "The princess was never captured. It was all part of her elaborate scheme. Her goal was to..."
"Son of a bitch!" You cut her off, muttering angrily. "Duped again!"
The Wind Slayer Knife flew from your hand, splitting a nearby stone in two. After the anger subsided, an eerie calm overtook you. Gazing silently at the sky for a long moment, you finally asked, "What’s your name?"
"My name is Mo’er."
Just then, a thought crossed your mind. You asked, "Mo’er, do you have aspirations?"
Mo’er nodded but quickly reflected on her tragic experiences, giving a bitter smile. "I once had them, but they’re all gone now. The princess framed me to be with Brother Bang. She turned me into this, and now she’s probably married to him already."
"That man... was your lover?" You asked.
Mo’er nodded quietly, her expression full of sorrow. "It’s all in the past now. I can never go back. The princess doesn’t need me anymore—she never thought I would survive."
"Then what was her purpose in doing this?"
Mo’er sighed deeply and said softly, "The centaurs captured me, but they didn’t harm me. The princess wanted to provoke them. Those adventurers killed many centaurs, and later they became extremely ferocious, so..."
"I understand." You sighed briefly, then asked, "Are you a real person playing this role, or are you a game NPC?"
"I don’t know. Since I became self-aware, I’ve been in the castle."
"Then you’re a game NPC. This game’s realism is incredible, even including scenes like this." You paused. "By the way, what are your plans for the future?"
"I don’t know. I can’t go back to Roland City—I’d face an even worse fate. But apart from there, I know nothing about other places."
You thought for a moment and said, "Alright, I’ll send you somewhere they won’t find you. Tell me: where would you like to go?"
