Chapter 11: Grasshoppers on the Same Rope Jump Together

Wu Yue didn't know that, at this moment, the two women in the cave felt full of sympathy for her.

Because in the Snow Tiger Tribe, only the strongest few can join the tribe's hunting and gathering teams, which is a manifestation of strength.

Those in the hunting and gathering teams are also the tribe's best choices for partners.

Wu Yue, being naturally frail, cannot join the gathering team; at best she can follow behind them and gather leftover items.

As for her future partner choice, not to mention powerful Beastfolk and Half-Beasts, even physically stronger pure-human males would not choose her.

A female without a mate, especially a frail pure-human female, cannot possibly survive alone in the Polar Forest.

Perhaps one day soon, when this pure-human female appears before them again, she will already be a cold corpse.

Wu Yue, however, didn't know what they were thinking; she was simply happy about her gathering tomorrow.

After delivering the food, the two left without lingering; winter had just passed, and the females in the household who possessed animal hides were busy drying them, for those hides were extremely valuable household items.

"Mission issued: successfully participate in tomorrow's tribal gathering to obtain a food." The mechanical voice sounded in Wu Yue's mind, making her roll her eyes speechlessly.

Her own system seems to be making a retrospective comment.

"What's the reward?" Wu Yue asked curiously; she was so poor she didn't even have paper to wipe after defecating.

As soon as Wu Yue finished speaking, she felt a flicker of light before her eyes, and a rectangular display screen appeared before her, with a clear line of text on it.

"Mission reward: Strengthening Health Pill (Basic) x1"

Oh ho~ high-class! Little slut~

It even comes with a display function!

Upon seeing the Strengthening Health Pill, Wu Yue's mood became very pleasant; she felt her current body was innately deficient, as the original owner had spent most of the year bedridden in the cave.

In winter, it's even worse: a slight cool breeze triggers a heart-rending cough, as if she wanted to cough up her entrails.

With such a body, let alone going out to gather, even the number of times she leaves the cave is extremely low.

Suddenly, Wu Yue's body stiffened, so she finally understood why the system had just said the mission was to successfully participate in gathering.

The girl feels bitter inside, but no one says anything for her!

After struggling to prop up her sore body, Wu Yue's inner self was in turmoil.

Indeed, sitting up was manageable, but standing up was extremely difficult; her legs felt like someone else's, wobbling at the slightest exertion.

Wu Yue grew despondent, silently laying back down, and silently asked the system in her heart: "System Lord, can tomorrow's reward be withdrawn in advance?"

The mechanical voice crisply refused: "This system runs a small-scale operation; it does not allow credit."

Damn!

Wu Yue wished she could slap her sandal onto the system's cold face, egg plain.

Silently rubbing the dust from her soles, she bitterly restrained herself; such lofty items as sandals were not something she currently deserved to own.

"We're all grasshoppers on the same rope, so we must jump together.

But system, look at me now—this body may appear to have two legs, but it's merely an ornament, pleasing to look at but useless.

Otherwise, think of a solution; if I can't go out, when will Tongzi recover?
