“Ah Gu, to be honest, I don’t mind you hating me but I mind you misunderstanding me.” Cole explained, giving off a ‘I simple can’t do anything with you’ look, “Indeed, I took away the little snake you left behind but as long as Oakley listened to me and do his job in managing Sauder well for you, I won’t treat his little lover badly.”
“You f***ing raped him, you still claim that you didn’t treat him badly?!” Gu Mengmeng howled at the top of her lungs.
Cole chuckled and replied calmly, “Oakley was the one who raised the challenge…….I just accepted it.”
“He’s dead now, you can say whatever you want!” Gu Mengmeng gnashed her teeth in anger.
Cole shook his head and said, “Haven’t you thought about it before, the people lying here are all the leaders and main attackers of nearby tribes, the weakest is just a third-level orc, why do you think they will listen to instructions from Oakley, a second-level orc, and fight against stray beasts?”
Water source…..
Without much contemplation, Gu Mengmeng knew the answer.
But she did not want to reply Cole so she just glared at him coldly.
Cole did not force Gu Mengmeng to reply as he continued, “These 16 tribes became Oakley’s blades because of the water source and those tribes which couldn’t get the water source would become a knife hovering the top of your head.”
Cole’s gaze landed on a nearby undergrowth casually, there were a lot of corpses there.
Chuckling, as if he was mocking Oakley’s indulgence in his wildest fantasy, he continued with a scornful and sarcastic tone, “If there was anything good about him, that would probably be his understanding towards me. He knew that I will never allow others to control you using my method so he deliberately spread the rumor of the Messenger of the Beast Deity getting the water source. At the same time, he spread the information of me threatening you with Chixuan.”
“He knew that an empty show won’t manage to convince me so to force me to appear here on time, he really risked your life.” Cole pointed at the undergrowth and added, “If I came here a little later, Sandy and her family would be caught by them. Under this kind of dangerous situations, they won’t be able to take care of your feelings and maintain a gentlemanly attitude towards Sandy like me……the six newborn leopards almost died tonight too.”
Cole looked at Gu Mengmeng lazily and casually, asking with a smile, “If I controlled Sandy and request in exchange for a well, judging by your character, you would have dug it without hesitation……”
Gu Mengmeng did not say anything but she knew that he was speaking facts.
As long as Sandy was safe, what did digging a well mean?
Cole seemed like he understood her thoughts as he said, “But have you thought about it before? Once you dig that well, Sandy and her family would become a snatching target for tribes in this entire Beast World and all gazes will be fixated on them because their family symbolized water source. They can even…….use them as a chip to make endless demands from you.”
Gu Mengmeng’s body turned stiff as she frowned deeply.
She was not afraid of what she would meet. It was not only because of her extremely strong abilities, but also because Elvis and Lea would always protect her.
But what about Sandy? She was just a vulnerable half-orc female, a weak little girl who could not even defeat Nina in all those trivial fights, if she were to be pushed to the teeth of the storm like that……
Just the thought of it made her heart ache.
“Now, do you still think that this lynx is innocent?” Cole laughed, pushing all responsibilities off him. He was curious as to how Gu Mengmeng would weigh and consider this.
