Chapter 278 Human Females Fleeing in the Beast World 6
"My name is Hu Le."
After exchanging names, Shen Chumo followed Hu Le cautiously toward the storage room.
Along the way, Hu Le kept looking back, his heart pounding with tension, fearing that an orc guard might suddenly appear.
Shen Chumo was equally vigilant. She followed closely behind Hu Le, walking very quietly and keeping her eyes constantly on the surroundings.
Soon, they arrived at the entrance to the storage room. Hu Le gently pushed open the dilapidated door, gesturing for Shen Chumo to go inside.
Shen Chumo walked in and found the room filled with all sorts of odds and ends, dimly lit, and filled with an old and worn atmosphere.
Hu Le rummaged through the pile of junk and found a worn-out box. He said to Shen Chumo, "Hide in here and wait until six o'clock in the morning, after the guards change shifts, before you go out."
Shen Chumo smiled slightly at Hu Le, "Thank you, Hu Le. I really wouldn't know what to do if it weren't for you."
As she spoke, Shen Chumo lowered her eyes, bit her lower lip lightly, and a trace of sadness remained on her face, making people feel heartbroken.
Even in the storage room, Shen Chumo's face was still unbelievably beautiful.
Being stared at like that by such a beautiful woman, Hu Le unconsciously swallowed, turned his face away, and dared not look into Shen Chumo's eyes, his cheeks flushing slightly.
Hu Le was a little confused. A human as beautiful as Shen Chumo should have plenty of beastmen vying to be her master outside, so how did she end up in the fighting arena?
"No...don't be so polite. We're both human, it's only right that we help each other...besides..."
Hu Le seemed to have thought of something, and a trace of sadness appeared in his eyes.
“You avenged my brother, and I’m doing this to repay your kindness.”
"Your brother?"
“My younger brother was also captured and brought to this arena. She was so weak, yet she was tortured in every way by those orcs, and in the end… in the end, she died in this cold place.”
At this point, Hu Le's fists clenched involuntarily, and his body trembled slightly.
"I've always wanted revenge, but I don't have the ability, so I can only eke out a living here."
And you, by defeating the orc who killed my brother on the field, have avenged me."
Hearing Hu Le's words, Shen Chumo sighed. She gently patted Hu Le's shoulder and comforted him, "Please accept my condolences."
Hu Le shook his head, a sarcastic smile on his face.
"Who told us humans to have the lowest status in the beast realm? It's all fate."
Upon hearing the words "Beast Domain," a deep glint flashed in Shen Chumo's eyes.
"Hu Le," Shen Chumo said softly, "I have a few questions I'd like to ask you."
Hu Le looked up at Shen Chumo, a hint of doubt in his eyes, "What do you want to ask?"
"To be honest, I think I injured my head before the match and forgot everything that happened before. I want to ask you about the world outside the fighting arena."
"Of course, it's not a secret."
After Hu Le's explanation, Shen Chumo finally understood what kind of world this was.
This world is divided into three powers: the Beast Domain, the Sea Domain, and the Heaven Domain.
The Beast Realm is the place Shen Chumo is currently in. Beastmen are dominant, controlling most of the resources and land. This is because beastmen are naturally large and strong.
Therefore, humans here can only struggle to survive, constantly facing the fate of being enslaved and oppressed.
This fighting arena is nothing more than a small place for them to amuse themselves and exploit humans.
Even after leaving the fighting arena, life for humans outside was still difficult. In the various towns of the beast realm, humans were forced to perform all kinds of manual labor.
For example, mining in mines, working in fields, and producing goods in factories. These jobs are not only arduous but also poorly paid, and many people can barely make a living from them.
The orcs' oppression of humans was also reflected in various rules and regulations. They established strict laws stipulating that humans must obey the orcs' rule.
If humans violate these laws, they will be severely punished.
But the most ironic thing is that orcs are also divided into ranks. The higher the rank, the fewer beast-like features they have. Some orcs are almost entirely in the form of wild beasts. These orcs are the lowest rank, and their status may even be lower than that of humans.
Those high-level orcs show almost no signs of bestiality; apart from their different physiques, they are no different from humans, so human appearances perfectly match their aesthetic standards.
Some orcs keep good-looking humans as pets. If these humans encounter a kind owner, they live a good life. However, if they encounter a cruel owner, their fate will be extremely tragic.
Hu Le frowned and continued, "As for the sea, it is a vast and mysterious place. The sea is boundless and contains countless mysteries."
There are many races living in the sea, including mermaids with fish tails and human bodies, whose songs can bewitch people. They are skilled at weaving all kinds of exquisite mermaid silk, which is said to be so precious that it does not get wet when it gets wet.
There are also enormous, incredibly strong sea giants who guard the treasures of the seabed, but they are extremely irritable and should not be easily provoked.
As for the Heavenly Realm, it is located in the extremely high sky, a place where ordinary people can hardly see the edge even when they look up.
I've heard that the Feathered Race lives there, who can ride the wind and fly. They have beautiful wings, are light and graceful, and live on floating islands surrounded by clouds and mist, like a fairyland.
There is also the mysterious Protoss, who seem to be able to communicate with the stars and wield their power. It is said that they can use the power of the stars to cast all kinds of magical spells. However, they rarely set foot in the area below and have always maintained a detached and independent attitude.
Shen Chumo frowned slightly, pondering as she asked, "Since these three spheres of influence are so different, are there any established rules or unspoken agreements between them?"
Hu Le thought for a moment and replied, "We do have some contact, but it's not frequent."
Occasionally, powerful figures from the Beast Realm would venture into the sea to search for legendary treasures or rare materials that could enhance their strength, given the abundance of resources in the ocean.
"The Celestial Realm sometimes sends envoys to the Beast Realm or the Sea Realm to convey decrees or exchange goods. I'm not entirely sure what the specifics are, but I've overheard the orc guards mentioning a few things in casual conversation."
Shen Chumo fell into deep thought. This division of power was clearly based on their living habits. Humans could neither swim in the sea nor fly in the sky.
She can only live in the Beast Realm, but the status of humans in the Beast Realm is so low. Her transmigration here is like a hellish start. What can she do to change this situation?
