Kate put on a serious face and stepped forward. He stood in the direction Audrey wanted to go, blocking her from passing.

“Kate! Please understand my thoughts. I don’t want to see Morris die! I wanted to take action last night, but it was too dangerous. Since it’s already daytime, I’ll be fine. Please believe me!”

Audrey tried to argue but to no avail. With Kate’s words, she could take action as a team. Then, with another sentence, even if she were to go, he would be the one to stop her.

Audrey was momentarily speechless. How could she explain it to Kate? She was actually very strong. The soul in her body possessed the memories of a level 80 battle-saint. It was just that it was inconvenient for her to use it in front of them.

It was the same for her to go out and search for herbs. She could use her skills as she pleased. There was also the fact that she did not need to worry about the danger of her companions.

Audrey was confident that she would be able to escape unscathed. Not only that, but it was also not a problem for her to scout the way by herself.

Afraid of scaring Kate, Audrey shut her mouth and did not say a word. She did not want to reveal her true strength.

“Hey, I know that there are herbs in a nearby direction! As friends, don’t stop this little girl!”

It was the man who had picked her up midway who spoke up. It turned out that before he had stepped into this place, he had been a lothario when he was young. With his good battle Qi strength and flashy battle techniques, he had won the hearts of many girls.

However, this man had ultimately failed to obtain his true love. This kind of feeling was extremely uncomfortable, and people who had never experienced it before would not understand.

At that moment, when the man heard that Audrey wanted to act alone to pick herbs for her partner, he was especially able to understand Audrey.

This was because this man had once done something similar to take a risk for the sake of his feelings. Audrey had merely walked the path that he had taken once again.

“Just walk straight in this direction! You should be able to pick the herbs you need! But don’t blame me for not reminding you. Even if you like this young man, he might not like you!”

Audrey blushed immediately. She felt that this man’s words were strange. What did he mean by saying that she liked Morris? She did not have anyone in her heart! She only wanted to obtain the position of God, that was all!

Love and attraction were not within the scope of her life’s plans!

“Thank you! I can’t thank you enough for telling me all this! I’ll definitely repay you in the future.”

Audrey cupped her hands and bowed. She felt that this man whom she had picked up on the way had quite a good character. He was a trustworthy partner.

“I still don’t know your name?”

Seeing how Audrey was so insistent that she actually turned a deaf ear to her own words, and with the man’s advice, Kate immediately looked down at Morris, who was sleeping on the ground, and then at Audrey, who was in high spirits. He was momentarily at a loss.

“My name is Jinke.”

The man said his name, and Klein reached out to pull his good friend Kate.

“That’s right. Morris has always been very good to Audrey. We don’t understand. It’s best not to get involved in their world.”

As he said this, Klein even took a look at Audrey. He had never known that Audrey liked Morris...actually, it seemed like the two of them were quite compatible.

Audrey did not know what Klein was thinking. She only felt a strange gaze behind her. However, when she turned her head, she only saw Klein and Kate’s backs, shoulder to shoulder.

Audrey let out a long sigh. Finally, her partner did not forcefully stop her from taking action. Audrey rolled up her sleeves, ready to show off her skills.

After bidding farewell to Jinke, Audrey picked up her small bag on the ground and made a final exchange with her partner. She promised to complete the mission and return triumphantly.

Klein and Kate were on the back of a mountain. Audrey was heading north. They did not want to be idle, so they prepared to pick some fruits near the mountain.

After all, no one knew if there would be food supplies on the way back. Just by looking at the terrifying part of the lake, they knew that the creatures in it could not be eaten.

Fortunately, everyone’s worries were unnecessary.

The mountain was filled with fruits and wild vegetables. Although there were not many varieties, it was still a huge harvest in this uninhabited wilderness.

When Audrey came back in the evening, everyone could have a delicious mushroom soup hotpot!

Klein felt that it was a little troublesome to pry the fruits and vegetables with his bare hands. He immediately activated his combat aura, and a few low-level combat auras were fully harvested.

Kate was used to laborious work, so he did it obediently. One by one, he cleaned the soil and put it into the snake skin bag in her arms.

“Morris! You’re finally awake!”

As the three of them had set up a powerful barrier around the tent, and it was connected to their spiritual power, they had returned safely. They immediately raised their heads and saw Morris, who was sitting in a daze. The three of them greeted him.

“What...did you guys do?”

Morris did not lose his memory. It was just that his brain was still in a daze after being baptized by the snake venom. For a moment, his function had not returned to normal, and his mind was blank from what had happened before and after.

Klein and Kate placed the fruits and vegetables in their hands on the ground. They wiped their sweat and began to explain how Morris had fallen into a high fever and sleep after saving Audrey.

“Hmm? Then why didn’t I see Audrey? Where is she?”

Morris vaguely recalled something, but his brain still hurt. He had heard from his partner that Audrey had risked her life to pick herbs to treat her injuries.

Morris immediately covered his face with his hand in guilt and said, “I’ve been a burden to the team.” Then, he fell into a deep state of self-blame.

On the other side, Audrey was feeling refreshed because she could stretch her arms and legs at will.

“Please grant me infinite strength!”

Audrey shouted tenderly and immediately punched the fierce tiger!

The majestic tiger had wanted to swallow her in one gulp and came menacingly. In the end, it had kicked an iron plate and provoked someone it should not have met.

“Wah!”

A roar came from the sharp mouth of the tiger. Audrey turned around elegantly and landed steadily on a huge rock, overlooking everything.

Her dress fluttered even though there was no wind. She looked like a valiant female soldier.

“Originally, I didn’t wwant to deal with you so cruelly. However, you might not have gone too far!”

An icicle rose from under the fierce tiger’s golden fur. It turned into a cage at a speed visible to the naked eye, locking the fierce beast in.

The fierce tiger’s fur was frozen by the sharp icicle.. It could be seen how terrifying the temperature of the crystal formed from water condensation was. As the user, the energy that Audrey could control was bottomless!
