The Villainess Cannot Escape — Five Beast Husbands Chase Her Madly Chapter 64: Su An’an Face-Slaps the Rats
An uproar erupted among the Mouse Clan mbers in the conference room.
The High Priest and several Mouse Clan elders exchanged a look.
Just as Jox and his four disabled brothers shot to their feet in agitation,
they dropped to their knees with a THUD.
"Your Highness! Please, convince Jox to stop fighting the Rebel Army to the death."
"He’s pushing our entire clan into a pit of fire!"
The way they acted, it was as if Su An’an were forcing Jox’s hand.
Little Pink rolled its eyes dramatically.
’Anyone who didn’t know better would think they were filming a Mouse Clan version of *Empresses in the Palace*.’
’What a comprehensive guilt-trip package. Buy one, get three free!’
’Little Pink, dig up so dirt on them.’
Su An’an had a feeling.
These guys were walking bounties worth 500,000 Gold Coins each.
Digging up dirt on the Rebel Army was now as easy as breathing for Little Pink.
A high-definition video suddenly popped up.
It showed the High Priest and several mouse elders furtively eting with the Rebel Army.
The item being traded was intelligence on the whereabouts of the five mouse brothers.
"Anyone else want to add to the drama?"
Su An’an raised an eyebrow, her gaze sweeping over the trembling elders.
"This is slander!"
The High Priest’s cloudy old eyes widened as he shrieked himself hoarse.
"You old traitor, biting the hand that feeds you!"
The eldest mouse brother, unable to contain his rage, sent the High Priest flying with a kick.
"Go cry injustice to the Judgent Court!"
Jox’s face was ashen.
He waved, ordering the beastman guards to drag the High Priest and the other elders away to the Judgent Court.
Su An’an crossed her arms, striking a cool and composed pose.
"Thank you for your help, Your Highness."
Jox’s brown eyes shone with fanatical adoration.
She had helped him clean house within three minutes of her arrival.
Such decisiveness!
Such thods!
Truly worthy of being the grand disciple of the Female God Jiu Su.
She was just that badass!
"It was nothing, not worth ntioning."
Su An’an glanced at the other mbers of the Mouse Clan.
"I’d like to speak with Jox alone..."
The other beastn imdiately took the hint and left the conference room.
Jox’s brown eyes lit up like searchlights.
"Your Highness, just say the word! I’d climb a mountain of swords or plunge into a sea of fire..."
"I want all the information you have on your mother’s poisoning and disappearance."
Su An’an cut him off, her expression turning incredibly serious.
Jox froze instantly, lowering his eyes.
"I don’t know what you’re talking about!"
"Is that so?"
Su An’an displayed a segnt of surveillance footage.
In the video, a white-furred female walked stiffly toward a large gate.
"Where did you get this footage?"
Jox’s gaze instantly turned sharp and furious.
This was his most private file.
"I stumbled upon it by chance."
Su An’an’s reply was a complete fabrication.
"I’ve seen a case just like your mother’s. That person went missing, too."
Jox frowned deeply.
After a mont of silence, he pulled a thick stack of docunts from his personal storage space.
"Over the years, it hasn’t just been my mother. Many High-level Females from other clans and families who opposed the Rebel Army have also disappeared."
"All clues point to a sealed dinsion—the Rotting Nest."
"That’s the territory of the ’Heart-Eating Nightmare Spider.’"
"The Heart-Eating Nightmare Spider?"
Su An’an frowned.
"What’s that?"
Jox replied,
"It’s a type of massive Mutant Beast that can secrete a special toxin."
"Once its toxin invades a body, the victim’s mind is controlled, and they beco a puppet at the spider’s rcy."
Little Pink said excitedly,
’Your Highness, could the poison you were given have been concocted from it?’
"It’s possible!"
The shadow in Su An’an’s sea of consciousness twitched twice.
It was as if it were saying that place was its happy ho.
Jox stroked the yellowed docunts.
Complex emotions swirled in his eyes.
"The environnt in the Rotting Nest is harsh, perpetually shrouded in acid rain and poisonous fog."
"An ordinary Beastman wouldn’t last half an hour inside."
"Moreover, the nest is its own dinsion."
"It changes coordinates every year. I’ve spent five whole years..."
"...just to confirm that this year, it will appear in the Southwest Mist Swamp."
"My brothers and I have already decided to brave it and go inside."
"We need to see if our Female Mother is in there."
Su An’an raised an eyebrow and said,
"A rchant beastman should stick to making money. Leave the jobs that involve dancing in poisonous fog and arm-wrestling Heart-Eating Nightmare Spiders to the professionals!"
Jox snapped his head up, so startled his mouse ears practically exploded.
"You an..."
"I don’t an anything. Let’s leave it at that."
Su An’an didn’t wait for Jox to ask any more questions.
She shut off the video call with a SNAP.
She took out five special Blood Frenzy Pills and instructed Little Pink,
’Send these to Jox.’
His four brothers were suffering from a dicinal poison, which was why their bodies couldn’t heal from their injuries.
This dicine was the perfect antidote.
’Understood.’
Little Pink arranged for a robot to ship the package and asked worriedly,
’Your Highness, you’re not thinking of going to the Rotting Nest yourself, are you?’
’Yes, I have to go myself if I want to find the antidote formula.’
Su An’an nodded grimly.
’The Rotting Nest is so dangerous,’ Little Pink added quickly. ’Why don’t you ask Big Cat to go with you?’
’Big Cat is a Level 3S War Beast and a Thunder Talent. He can definitely protect you.’
Su An’an tapped her fingers on the table and nodded.
"Good point! Can you see where Big Cat is now?"
’Let take a look.’
Little Pink secretly hacked into the Ying Jiuyao Battleship and cried out in alarm,
’Your Highness, Big Cat just reached Black Canyon and ran into an urgent military situation!’
The Light Screen lit up.
An overwhelming horde of black Mutant Beasts had surrounded the White Tiger Base so tightly that not even a fly could get out.
Su An’an leaned sharply toward the screen.
The image was filled with the smoke of battle.
The White Tiger cha, piloted by Ying Jiuyao, rampaged through the enemy lines like a War God.
Its sharp blades cut through the horde, but countless more Mutant Beasts surged forward to take their place.
Lion Sedric and his elite squad were defending the base to the death.
Ion Light Cannons blasted into the Mutated Beast Group, making flowers of blood bloom.
"Don’t they have reinforcents?"
Su An’an saw the White Tiger cha get swallowed by the black tide.
Her heart leaped into her throat with anxiety.
Little Pink said gravely,
’It was a surprise attack by the Mutant Beasts. Nearby reinforcents haven’t arrived yet.’
Just as the base’s defensive line was about to crumble,
over a thousand Beastman Warriors in the White Tiger Base suddenly took Blood Frenzy Pills.
Their bodies erupted in crimson light.
They charged into the Mutated Beast Group like blazing flas.
The tide of battle, which had been turning against them, was instantly reversed.
Even more incredibly, half of the beastn broke through their Level restrictions, emitting the dazzling halos of advancent.
’Thanks to the Blood Frenzy Pills you sent, they held the base!’ Little Pink said excitedly.
’Big Cat has broken through the encirclent and is heading straight for the Mutant Beasts’ lair, all by himself! As long as he takes out their mastermind, they’ll win.’
Not until she saw the image of Ying Jiuyao returning safely, though bathed in blood,
did Su An’an’s anxious heart finally settle.
’Your Highness, the last beast tide in Black Canyon was only ten days ago.’
’Normally, a beast tide happens once every six months. It shouldn’t have co so soon.’
’Otherwise, Big Cat wouldn’t have taken leave to co back and be with you.’
Su An’an stared at the dense records of beast tides on the Holographic Screen.
Frowning, she said, "They deliberately attacked the base while Big Cat was away."
"Mutant Beasts have no intelligence. Soone must be behind this, directing them."
’It has to be the Rebel Army! It’s a good thing Big Cat went back early, or the White Tiger Base would have been in real danger.’
Little Pink looked terrified in hindsight.
If the Black Canyon Base were to fall, the Empire would suffer a major loss.
A cold glint flashed in Su An’an’s eyes.
The shadowy speck in her sea of consciousness seed to burn with pain again.
The Rebel Army’s thod of controlling Mutant Beasts...
...must be related to the Heart-Eating Nightmare Spider.
’Your Highness, Big Cat will be busy repairing the base and definitely can’t co back. Maybe you should go next ti?’
Su An’an shook her head.
"The Rotting Nest changes its location every year. If I miss it this year, there’s no telling if I’ll ever find it again. Besides..."
There were only five months left until the plot forced her to the Black Star Slave Market.
If she wanted to avoid that certain-death ending, she had to find the source of the poison.
The Rotting Nest—she had to go!
