Surviving Underground: Super Prompting System - Chapter 40

Chapter 40: The Beautiful Emily

“Joseph, how about returning the favor to me?”

At this moment, Emily completely ignored the Demon Wolves that were already within reach, revealing a generous smile as she spoke.

“Big Brother Joseph, save us. I don’t want to die yet!”

“Big Brother Joseph, as long as you save me, I’m willing to do anything you want me to do.”

“I have an equipment blueprint in my hands. As long as you save me, it’s yours!”

..

Looking at the people around him who were constantly begging, Joseph shrugged. The crossbow in his hand instantly shot the Demon Wolf closest to him to death.

While calmly installing the arrow, he said to Emily, “Looks like I’m going to return the favor!”

When they saw their companions die, the remaining six Demon Wolves instantly revealed a crazed look.

“Awooo!”

The Demon Wolves that had fallen into a crazy state immediately pounced on Emily and the others. The stench from their mouths was already coming towards them.

“Ahh, help!”

“Someone save me!”

Looking at the Demon Wolves that had already pounced on them and were about to tear them into pieces in the next second, the ladies were already in despair and desperation.

However, Emily had been smiling as she looked at Joseph. She did not have the slightest intention of dodging.

“How boring!”

When Joseph saw Emily’s reaction, he immediately shrugged his shoulders and shouted to the second floor, “Pistachio it’s time to start work!”

As soon as Joseph finished speaking, the window on the second floor opened from the inside. A white figure descended from the sky and landed on the barricade at the very front.

“Meow!”

Pistachio, whose sweet dreams had been interrupted, was filled with burning anger. It opened its mouth and spat out a huge ball of fire at the Demon Wolves that were charging at them.

“Awooo!”

The Demon Wolves were thrown away one after another. The black fur on their bodies had become the best incendiary material, and they turned into rolling fireballs on the ground.

“A cat that… knows magic?”

“I… I know it. There’s this cute little kitten in the picture of Big Boss Joseph!”

“Cute… huh?”

As the group of women looked at Pistachio, who was showing off its power, they stared at the petite and cute figure in front of them with their eyes wide open. They kept exclaiming in surprise.

Pistachio saw that the Demon Wolves that had disturbed its sweet dreams had all fallen to the ground. It then turned around and jumped onto Joseph’s shoulder to rest again.

“This favor, is it considered repaid?”

Joseph gently stroked Pistachio’s head as he said to Emily with a smile.

“That’s not how it works. The one who helped us was clearly this cute little kitten. Even if I need to return the favor, it won’t be returned to you!”

The corners of Emily’s mouth curled up as she said as if nothing had happened.

This immediately made Joseph feel very familiar, because every time they traded, the woman in front of him always did not want to suffer a loss.

He did not expect that this would still happen this time.

“Alright, then you have to remember that you owe our Pistachio a big favor!”

Joseph raised his eyebrows, pointed at Pistachio on his shoulder, and said to Emily.

What was the difference between owning Pistachio a favor and owning Joseph a favor?

Pistachio had to listen to him when the time came, right?

“Alright, I’ll be busy collecting my spoils of war. Since the Demon Wolves are already dead, you should be able to leave without worry, right?”

Joseph pushed away the barricades in front of him and took out a dagger to walk towards the Demon Wolves’ charred corpses.

Although the Demon Wolves’ fur had been damaged, at least the Demon Wolf Meat could still be traded. It was better than nothing!

Just as Joseph was cutting them one by one, the female survivors in the surroundings immediately revealed envious gazes.

This was the Demon Wolf Meat. It had an expensive price on the trading platform. Even if it was purely used as food, it was still very good.

However, even though everyone was looking at it eagerly, no one dared to ask for it. They did not dare to move because Pistachio was on Joseph’s shoulder. let alone the fact that Joseph had just asked them to leave.

“Have you noticed that the Magical Beasts in the surroundings have become rarer?”

Just as they were standing there obediently, Joseph, who had been cutting the Demon Wolf’s corpse, suddenly asked.

“Ah!”

“Are there fewer Magical Beasts? Why don’t I feel It?”

“Oh my God, if Magical Beasts didn’t decrease, how scary would it be!”

Just as everyone was in shock, a 15 to 16-year-old girl who had been hiding in the crowd timidly stood out.

“Brother Joseph, I think I know something!”

Looking at the pretty girl in front of him, Joseph suddenly revealed a very kind smile.

“Little girl, if know something about it, then this Demon Wolf is your reward. How about it?”

Hearing this, the little girl jumped up in joy, she charmingly thanked Joseph, “Thank you, Big Brother. My name is Amy. I saw a lot of Magical Beasts rushing towards a large, tall wooden house a few days ago. I was afraid, so I didn’t dare to follow them!”

“Then do you dare to take me to have a look? Don’t worry, Big Brother will protect Amy’s safety!”

“Yes, I heard from Sister Emily that Big Brother is a very powerful person. I believe in Big Brother!”

Amy held Emily’s hand and said excitedly.

“Don’t talk nonsense. I didn’t praise him. Hurry up and leave. We have to go back to the base!”

Emily took little Amy’s hand and walked away quickly with her face blushing.

Joseph smiled and shook his head, following her. They did not say a word along the way.

When Emily’s pretty face returned to normal, Joseph saw a ruin in front of him.

Judging from the buildings that still existed, it should be a two-story wooden house. There were many traps around it.

However, it was already in ruins. The ground was covered with all kinds of footprints of Magical Beasts.

“What exactly happened here?”

Emily covered her mouth in shock. This was the first time she had seen a base of survivors destroyed by Magical Beasts.

“If you want to know, why don’t you go over and take a look?”

Joseph narrowed his eyes. After confirming that he had not received any system prompts, he took big strides over with Pistachio.

“Joseph, be careful!”

After hearing Emily’s worried voice, Joseph waved his hand without turning his head back and continued walking forward.

This made Emily stomp her feet fiercely. After giving a few reminders, she quickly followed behind Joseph and walked side by side with him.

“Why are you here?”

Joseph asked while observing his surroundings.

“If you can come, why can’t I? I was afraid that you would take the treasure all by yourself!”

Emily rolled her eyes at him in annoyance, but in her heart, she kept muttering, ‘Joseph, you’re really a log who doesn’t know anything!’!

At this moment, the two of them walked to the center of the wooden house. The first thing they saw was a corpse covered in blood lying quietly in the ruins not far away, and in his hand was a worn-out sheepskin scroll!

An item that he was unwilling to give up even if he died?

Joseph instantly revealed a satisfied smile!
